A Remarkable Theory
IS IT THE CROWN PRINCE. UNITED SERVICE TELEGRAMS. (Received this day at 8 a.m.) LONDON, May 30. The Daily Herald quotes the “Church Times” as advancing a remarkable theory that somebody "is ’ personating the Japanese Crown Prince during the English tour, owing to Japanese opposition to the heir to the throne demeaning himself and Japan by visiting a foreign barbarous nation. The “Church Times’ declares those in England, knowing Japan have a, growing feeling tint the present visitor is not the actual Crown Prince. They see nothing im probable in the rumour that Government sent somebody else to personate him, as opposition to the visit came largely from the military bureaucratic set which rules the Throne with the Emperor practically an imbecile.
DESCRIBED AS RIDICULOUS.
SYDNEY, May 30
