Prince Frederick Leopohl did not - approve of many atrarics of Wil- i liam the Irresponsible, and. moreover, had nour forgiven him for his interference in certain episod'-s concerning his domestic relations with his wif", interference which had beer, due to the solicitations of the empress, whose sist?r was the consort of Frederick Leopold, anil who had objected to th-1 manner in which that sister had been treate! by him. The kais'T, on the other hand, disliked the prince partly because the latte: that he did riot stand wes so rich ( in need 'f ! his imperial couin an. I could afford to defy him should a cause for so ;ioin arise. If Ho-iv is one idea that William II abhors it is that people can do without him. Lver since his accession to the throne a silent but energetic state ot war has existed between him and I'rince Frederick Leopold, and he has never missed an opportunity to bo disagreeable to the latter. In regard to the education of the prince's children, especially, this las been the case, but the kaiser's efforts to secure their control proved jt complete fiasco, because neither ?f their parents would accept. William's eccentric theories in regard to the rearing of junior members of the family. I'rince and Princess Frederick Leopold had three sons, of whom the second has fallen during the present war, and one d.i lighter, now married to a prince of K uss. the son of that Prince Henrv VII of Keuss whose admiration for the Fmnress Fugenie had been so much talked ! ubvMit. and who. in spite o.- mm h opposition, was later to marry the l'rlncrs .Mari" f .'-'.ixc " ini.ir. of that n niic.

To tell the truth, he preferred his boy to be in ;i foreign country rath r than to idle his time in LJer!ir whese atme -phei e he did not consider entirely wholesome for ou':ir people ldess-d with a plethora of wealth. I'erhrips he was never .made aware of the extent to which ! his son had b. come imbued with French sympathies, nor of the disapproval with which-ho had come I to regard (Jerman ways jnd German kultur. Kut when the war broke out things had to change, and yo'in Leopold's plan crumbled into 'dust, much to his disgust. Leopold openly expressed his con- ' viction that the war had been brought about by the ambition of I William IL. and that he alone was j responsible for its horrors. In his conversations with hU friends In , Munich he has related that he has s. - n with Iiis own eyes instructions written by the kaiser to Iiis generals, in which wer? ordered the different atrocities that have accompanied the invasion of IJelirium by the German armies, and he has even gone eo far as to say that there would never he any peace In Germany, nor in Kurope, so long as the kaiser remained on the throne, with the jiowcr to plunqe, according to his francies, the whole of the world Into misery and distress. The purport of the different conversations which he had held had, of course, been duly reported to Kerlin, and the kaiser became furious. lie sent for Prince Leopold's father and told him that he had to tecall immediately his son to Iierjin, whence he would be dispatched to the front. Uut for once William II. found his master, for his cousin I'.atly refused to follow the directions piven to him, replying that he considered his son was doing very well in Munich and that there existed no reason whatever for his being compelled to choose another residence. Iiaflled in his intentions, the kaiser turned in another direction and. haing discovered the riegotiattions which had, previous to the war, had been entered Into by the young I'rince Leopold for the purchase of property in France, he commanded Iiis minister of the household, Count Fulenber?, to declare his young cousin incompetent to manage his own property and io put him under guardianship. Hut here acrain things did not go as smoothly as had been expected. For one thing.

To the numli'T siIM" inlufunn m o - railroad employes under po(-rn-operation w.ts toucheü upon Vr'Azy at th hows- interstate commerce committee s hearing on the .'! d.ninisiration railway bill. Julius Kruttschnitt, chairman of thj hoard of the Southern Pacific, who said lie f.poke for the American Ii.iilv ay association, voiced seiious objection to any pruning of li.t:s o employes en the ground that it would seriously affect the organization of th? lines and mean disarrangement when the properties ar turned back to their owner.-: after the war. Chairman Sims asked about the feasibility of eliminatir.? some of the solicitors' employment by th-5 roads, particularly those whoso duties are to seek passenger husines?. Mr. Kruttschnltt said the men who ?oli' it passenger business also loo after freight and therefore he dl I not believe any considerable number of them could be dispensed with Some of the 21 passenger trains runni.'.g between Omaha and Chicago, the witness thought, could be taken off and the men engaged on them given employment in the freight service. He was opposed, however, to any changes that would throw men out of employment. Opposes Compensation Uasis. Mr. Kruttschnitt again voiced his objection to the proposed basis of compensation to the roads, say Ins he believed the return should be based on what the roads wtre earning at the time they were taken over. lie suggested that not later than six months after peace is tieel? red. would he long; enough for government control. Lefore the senate committee on interstate commerce Commissioner Anderson estimated that maturities of railroad securities in 191S and 1919 would amount to $4."0, 000,000. i It was not to be assumed that the government was to care of this, he said, but nc revolving fend" of IGOO.OOO.OdO provided in the bill was to cover financing that might be necessar. j Mr. Anderson discussed and explained the bill section by section and reiterated much of what he previously- had said before the house committee. Koth the house and senate hearlngs were adjourned tonight until Monday. The appearance of Director General McAdoo before the senate committee, which was set for this afternoon, has been postponed until next week.
