Von Sternburg May Be Promoted In European Embassies
Baron Speck von Sternburg may be transferred from Washington to a European post as part of a broad reshuffle in Kaiser Wilhelm II’s diplomatic service. Several first class embassies in Europe are becoming vacant due to retirements and health, with rumors of new postings for Monts in Rome and Schoen in Madrid. The shift promises closer contact with the Crown and greater honors for ambassadors, including extensive residences, palaces, and courtiers.
