He became Minister of State (de facto: Prime Minister) of the Principality of Schaumburg-Lippe in 1898 and remained so after the abdication of Prince Adolf II zu Schaumburg-Lippe on November 15, 1918 ( November Revolution ). However, the government was taken over for the "federal state of Schaumburg-Lippe until the conditions were finally reorganized by the workers and soldiers' council in Bückeburg" .
