KING EDWARD AND THE KAISER.

A MEETING ARRANGED

Received July 29, 8.15 a.m. BERLIN, July 28. Much satisfaction is shown in Germany over the semi-official announcement that King Edward,'when journeying to Marienbad, will visit the Kaiser at Friedrichshof, on the border of Poland, on 11th August.

According to reports current in Court circles (say the Berlin cnrrespondent of the London "Daily Telegraph") it is now practically settled that the German Emperor will in the late? autumn spend another holiday on the South Coast of England. It is said ttyat agents of the Court Marshal have already been searching for a suitable country mansion, as it is uncertain whether Highcliffe could again be placed at His Majesty's disposal. The Emperor's sojourn in England would be primarily dictated by considerations of heiilth, but it would almost certainly be as.ioriated wi'h another visit to Windsor at the invitation of King Edward, who is further said to contemplate arranging a meeting on British soil between the German Sovereign and the Czar. So far in advance it is practically impossible to obtain anything like official confirmation of such rumours. The answer invariably leturned to the inquirer is that it is not usual for the Court arrangements to be announced so long before the period to which they refer, but that, in view of the Emperor's well-known liking for England, the English people, and the English life, the chance of his repeating the visit of last November may always be reckoned among the possibilities of the near future.
