SORROW.
(United Press Association—Copyright.) Received 10.45 p.m.. Juno 29.<
BERLIN, June 29. The news of the assassination caused the deepest consternation and sorrow throughout Germany. The tragedy is deeply regretted by the Kaiser, who latterly had established close personal political relations with the Archduke, and would, when cause arose, have strongly championed the claim' of the Duchess of Hohenberg for a place on the throne. German interest in the Austrian problem, will now be more intense than ever, and possibly be more directly -and unequivocably asserted now that all problems regarding the succession have been so tragically solved. When the news reached Kiel the Kaiser was racing in his yacht. Meteor. The race was stopped, and the Meteor was towed into the harbour. The Kaiser stood gravely silent at the rail, ireplying to the salutes and occasional cheers. He returns to Berlin immediately.
