COURT INTRIGUE TO CANCEL BETROTHAL ALLEGED.
Tokio, February 13.
Rumours that the Crown Prince’s trip abroad is due to a Court intrigue to cancel his betrothal to Princess Ncgeko. daughter of Prince Kuni, has resulted in the Household Department issuing a. statement denying any contemplated change in the marriage contract. The Homo Department has issued a similar statement, adding that Baron Nakamura, Minister of the Household, has decided to resign. It is reported that the ViceMinister, Mr. Ishiwara, will also resign. Prince Kuni, following upon the publication of tho annoucenients, visited the Emperor and Empress. The newspapers charge Baron Nakamura and Field-Marshal Yamagata with intriguing to annul the bethrothal while tiie Prince is abroad. It appears that several members of Parliament wrote to Marshal Yamagata recently, accusing him of interference in the Crown Prince’s affairs. The newspaper “Dishinechi” states that Marshal Yamagata will relinquish the Generalship and Presidency of the Privy Council. —Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
