THE LATE EMPEROR.
(By Elbotrio Telegraph—Copyrioht.l [Per Press Association.] Berlin, March 15. An enormous concourse of people have visited the cathedral to see the remains of the Emperor William. Near the bier is piled a mountain of wreaths, brought by all classes of the community. So great has been the crush of people anxious to get into the building that the police have been quite unable to control them, and some disorderly scenes have been enacted. The programme for the funeral provides for the Emperor Frederick following, but it is believed that his physicians wilji forbid him doing so. The Emperor has addressed a Message to the Diet, promising to observe the Constitution. The ceremony of administering the oath has been postponed until His Majesty's health has improved.
