EX-KAISER’S PROPERTY
PRUSSIAN DIET PASSES BILL (Rec. October 17, 5.5 p.m.) Berlin, October 16. Despite a strong force cf detectives within the Prussia;! Diet and police outside, Socialists started a free fight when the Diet passed the third reading of the Hohenzollern Bill by 258 votes to 37. 'l'he President quitted the Chamber and returned later, when Communists made threats : gainst him and six were ejected. The Communists shouted, howled and moved a vote of censure on the Cabinet. This was defeated. Then they threw documents on the floor and engaged in fisticuffs with other deputies.
In the course of the debate one Democrat deputy observed that there seemed no danger of the ex-Kaiser returning. Fie was obviously more comfortable in Holland than he would be in Prussia under a Socialist Minister of the Interior.
The Finance Minister repeated his assurances that the law was adequate to prevent the return -of the ex-Kaiser. Thus he gets Castle Homburg and he and his family receive real and movable estate estimated to be worth £4,600,000, compared with the £9,300,000 of last year’s rejected bargain.
