THE KAISER.
IN A BAD WAY. SEVERE OPERATION OR DEATH» By Cable.—Press Association— Copyright Times and Sydney Sun Servicel. Received Jan. fi, 6.15 p.m. London, Jan. 5, The theory that tho Kaiser is sufferin <I from cancer recalls that in February, 1912, a French surgeon was called upon to remove the larynx, substituting an artificial voice-box and a respiratory tube leading to the trachea. The Kaifler was afraid of losing his speech and preferred n smaller operation. The diseaee, which is inexorable, has advanced, and Is now, undoubtedly, giving the choice of death by suffocation or the severe operation of cutting out the larynx. The Kaiser !s stricken with partial aphonia (voicelessness), and is suffering morally and physically, his unmanageable pangs reaching the innermost chamber of tho palace.
