SOME OF THE CAUSES WHICH LED TO CROWN
PRINCE RUDoLPHs SUICIDE.
Edmund Yates Cable Letter TO the y. Y. Tribune
The Crown Prince Rudolph was never the
same man after he had been informed that his
wife could not again become mother. He was
feverishly anxious to have son. Probably the
depression from which he suffered after the
long illness of the Archduchess Stephanie was
increased by the knowledge that his cousins the
presumptive heirs. sons of Archduke Charles,
are wretched. brainless creatures who inherit
many of the qualities of their maternal grand
father, King BOmba, of Naples. The crown
prince rapidly degenerated, lost all literary
and scientific tastes. plunged into intrigues of
most disreputable and communicating kind
and took to drinking hard. A head-split-
ting mixture of champagne and cognac
was his favOrite tipple. During the last years
OF his life he acted, when he was ont hunting
as II mad or drunk. He discovered great fond
ness for society. and finally became thoroughly
impressed with the idea that there was a curse
upon his race and the madness in his blood
was doomed to end like his cousin the late king
of Bavaria. There had been frequent violent
quarrels between the crown prince and the
princess of late. For years past they had lived
In lncessant squabbling, and rarely met unless
on state occasions, except for battle. The
emperor had lately.become aware of the Ia
mentable habits into which his son had fallen.
Only few days before the catastrophe he in
formed the crown prince that he was to
be sent to Searajeno. as Cover
nor, of Bosnia there to remain in drearv
exile until he had seriously applied himself in
the language of the ecclesiastical court to the
correction and reformation of his manners and
excesses. The crown prince died deeply in debt
although his income was 10000 pounds a year
and his residences were kept up for him. No.
body can discover what ne did with the money
The apparent expenses of his living were very
moderate. There are rumors that very large
sums have been paid in connection with his in

WHY Soldiers Desert.

To the Editor of THE EVENING STAR:
So much has been said and written upon the
causes of desertion perhaps the opinion of an
ex-soldier of ten years service in mounted and
foot troops will not be ont OF place in these
columns. The chief grounds upon which sol.
diers desert are: First, want of a variety OF
food, inequality in the administration of pun.
Ishments, the present system of company funds,
and dividing the soldiers rations. Second, the
manual labor required of soldier at army
posts during his enlistment.
Soldiers, like civilians, are fond of good fare,
and 1t Is intended by the government that the
food supplied shall be wholesome and suffi-
Gent. At the present time the fresh beef al
lowed is never drawn. but exchanged for sal,
meat and sold back to the commisSary in order
to make company funds. 1t would be for the
benefit of the service if the military authorities
would put stop to this; and furthermore. il
the present system of company funds is to be
maintained, none but single men should be
first sergeants.
1t is well-known fact that the fatigue labor
required of an enlisted man is one of the most
serious drawbacks to proper progress. No
young man who enlists to be a soldier expects
to be employed at the pick and shovel for
eight. nine, and ten hours per day, with drill
and parade-this frequently on an empty stom-
ach.
Neither of these criticisms is new and both
have been frequently presented through the
press. The evil is difficult to eradicate, but
much improvement could be made by proper
measures at the fountain head.
The standard of education of the L. S. army
is good. In the army, as out of it, there are
men who prefer ignoraace to knowledge but
their number is SO small. and they are invaria-
bly, so worthless. that they seldom disgrace the
service long. The bill before Congress to re-
tire enlisted men after twenty-five years &C
tive service should pass. The present general
commanding the army has already recon-
mended it,
Let us hope that with the march of education
the public will be enlightened to the wants OF
the enlisted man. Faithfully yours,
III. B. E
