BRIEF TOUR OF AMERICA.

Prince Henry Will Be on the Go Most of the Time.

Washington, Jan. 18. -- It was decided yesterday that all arrangements for Prince Henry's reception should be confined to a special committee, composed of Dr. David Jayne, representing the state department; Maj. Gen. Henry Corbin, representing the United States army; Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans, representing the navy, and Count A. von Quadt-Wykradt-Isny, the counsellor and first secretary to the German embassy.

Pressure is being brought to bear by nearly all the large cities of the country to secure the presence therein of Prince Henry, and the present indications are that, after the conclusion of the launching ceremonies, the prince will make a rapid tour through the country, going as far west, perhaps, as St. Louis. In case this plan is executed, the itinerary will be arranged to allow the prince to see the American cities having the largest population of German extraction.
