ALL RUSSIA WORRIED ABOUT THE CZARINA
Empress Is Still Suffering From Inflammation of the Ear and an Operation May Have to Be Performed at a Very Early Day
ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 27. — The Czarina's condition causes alarm here, as the inflammation of her ear does not yield to treatment and it is feared that an operation may be necessary. The Czar has decided not to bring her to St. Petersburg, fearing she may take cold on the journey, and she will remain at Skierniewcz until all danger is passed.
The papers here given no details of the Czarina's illnes [sic] beyond the official bulletin.
The following bulletin concerning the condition of the Czarina was issued to-day:
Her Majesty's temperature last evening was 99.14, pulse 68. The temperature this morning was 98.6, pulse 64. Her Majesty slept well during the night and was free from pain. The discharge from the ear continues in a normal way and the general condition remains good.
BERLIN, Nov. 27. — The statement published by a news agency in the United States to-day to the effect that Die Morgen Post had confirmed reports that the Czarina is not suffering from inflammation of the ear, but from the effects of strychnine placed in the food in the royal palace by nihilists, who thus attempted to kill the Czar, is absolutely denied and is considered preposterous.
Die Morgen Post merely noted the rumors published in the Polish press that the death of the Princess Elizabeth, daughter of the Grand Duke of Hesse, was caused by the eating of diseased oysters. Die Morgen Post, in referring to the rumor, made no mention whatever of the Czar or the Czarina.
