DIET ADJOURNS.
STENOGRAPHERS EXHAUSTED
EMPEROR'S RECKLESS HASTE
f'Timee" Sydney "Sun" Special Cable.) BERLIN. February 12.
Criticisms were made in the Prussian Diet of the reckless speed at which the royal motor-cars were driven, a fact which was unpleasantly illustrated on the [occasion of the Emperor's hurried visit to Potsdam.
Despite signalling and the use of mounted police to keep the streets clear, a motor lorry Tounding a corner missed the Emryror's car by inches, and overturned the following car containing the aides-de-camps. The occupants were not seriously injured.
After a long sitting the Diet adjourned, owing to the exhaustion of the stenographers.
