The kaiser's speeches, forming a character portrait of Emperor William II . ings with Professor Delitzsch, the eminent Assyriolo-gist, and with the Liberal wing of Protestant theologyin Germany, having Professor Harnack at its head,and also by the quasi renewal of a profession offaith made by the monarch in a letter to AdmiralHollmann. In this letter, written at the instance of the Kaiserspresent court preacher. Dr. Dryander, mainly with theintention to set at rest current rumors, widely credit-ed, as to the advanced heterodoxy of the Kaiser—aheterodoxy all the more serious because of his heredi-tary position of summus episcopus of the ProtestantChurch in Prussia—it is made very plain how much hehas modified his earlier religious views. In fact, while THE KAISER AS A PULPIT ORATOR administering a severe snub to Delitzsch, a professedinfidel, he nevertheless admits far more in the shapeof a rationalistic conception of religion than the worldat large had imagined he would. And that, too, por-trays an interesting process of evolution in his soullife. THE END.
