KAISER WILLIAM
ATTEMERAL
VIENNA, July 1.—Because of the
great difficulty of obtaining accom
modations here, Kaiser William, of
all the European monarcbs,- will at
tend the funeral services over the
remains of Archduke Ferdinand and
his wife, who were shot to death by
a Servian student on Monday.
The arrangements* for the funeral
services have been completed and a
large military parade will pay honor
to the dead heir apparent of the
throne of Austria-Hungary. Details
of picked soldiers stand like statues
at the' bier o fthe slain archduke and
his wife, as they lie in state here.
German students today tore down
the Servian flag, which was half
masted on the legation building, in
respect to the dead heir apparent.
The feeling is intense here and may
result in international complications.
Strong detachments of mounted
troops are kept moving on the streets
to prevent the mobs from gathering.
