THE PRINCE OF WALES ON TOUR.
KINDLY AC HON OF THE KAISER. FRENCH NEWSPAPERS ON THE INCIDENT. (PER PUESS ASSOCIATION.) Received 21, 9.5 a.m. Beklin, April 20. The Kaiser's brother, Prince Henry, greeted the Prince of Wales when passing through Altona on his return journey to England from his visit to Denmark. Received 22, C p.m. London, April 21. The Kaiser's kindly impulse in unexpectedly journeying from Berlin to Altona and summoning Prince Henry from Kiel to greet the Prince and Princess of Wales is regarded, besides being a tribute of family affection to their Royal Highnesses, as a gracefully significant compliment to England, The leading French newspapers interpret tbe incident as emphasising an Anglo-German entente cordwle, as a manifest rebuke to Anglophobism in Germany, and foreshadowing the utter failure of the Boer peace delegates' miesion to Berlin and elsewhere. The Prince and Princess, in returning to London, did not halt at Brussels. The crowd cordially cheered them, and there was unbounded enthusiasm at their Royal Highnesses drove through the streets of London. The Queen, in forwarding a letter of thanks to tbe stationmaster at Brussels for seizing Sipido, sent him the Crost of the Victorian Order.
