STOCKHOLM, Nov. 10.—After the abdication, Prince Adalbert, third son of the former Kaiser, sought refuge on his yacht, the crew of which remains loyal. His wife, Princess Adelheld, and the children, are leaving Kiel by rail.
Prince Henry of Prussia, and his consort seem to be hiding near the Danish frontier awaiting a chance of crossing. Prince Henry had a narrow escape from death during his flight from Kiel, in a motor car, a bullet entering his sleeve, while the Princess was shot above the elbow.
COPENHAGEN, Nov. 10.—According to a frontier message, Princess Heinrich, wife of the grandson of Ludwig III. of Bavaria, was wounded in the arm when fired upon as she was fleeing from Munich.
She and her husband are now hiding in Southern Bavaria with Princess Adelheld, wife of Prince Adalbert, Emperor William's third son.
AMSTERDAM, Nov. 10.—Advices from Munich state that the King of Bavaria with his daughters and his son, Crown Prince Rupprecht, departed in motor cars Thursday night for an unknown destination. The Soldiers' and Workmen's Councils occupy the royal residences. Later it was said the King returned to the castle to take away the Queen, who was ill, from the excited city.
