Some Very Interesting Personals in the LOndol
Papers Concerning Their Relations.

Papers Concerning Their Relations.
Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Cable
LONDON, Feb. Ga dispatch from Malta
says that Prince Henry, of Battenberg,
Queen Victoria's son-in-law, has left there
for England. 1t is said that he had vowed
that he would never again visit Balmoral,
never again wear kits, and that he would
speak to his brother Alexander in spite of
all the queens in christendom. The morn
ing papers have of late been carefully in :
specting the advertisements offered for in :
sertion, that is, those of a personal nature.
Some of them printed affecting appeals to
sH. BIZ to return to his afflicted relatives,
promising that if he displayed contrite
disposition all would yet be well, the
notices being signed by ~. RI The OBJ
vious allusion to Prince Henry and his i'm
perial mother-in-law was too TRANSPARENT to
escape attention long and the advertise
ments were hastily killed after they had
afforded considerable amusement.
1t Is regarded as certain that bill to
| legitimate the three sons of the Duke of
Cambridge will soon come up in the house
| of commons. and club men are offering
odds that it will pass. This will
be viewed in the light of graceful
compliment to the commander-in-chief
of her maiesty's forces on the occasion
of mis- retirement from the exalted position
which he has had so long. The sons, if
parliament in it's wisdom shall declare them
all right, will be nominally princes of the
blood and it is understood that the Prince
of Wales and his brethren, whose position
is so assured, are not adverse to their re-
cognition. There will be opposition from
the left wing of parliament in the course
of which some disagreeable truths will be
told but it is fact that radicals are il
favor, practically, of a cheapened royalty

THE PARIS TRUNK MYSTERY.
Gabrielle BOmpard Tells About the Murder of
NJ, Gouffe, Marshal of Paris.

Especial to THE HERALD Examiner Dispatch
New YORK, Feb. Cit looks at last as if
the great Paris trunk mystery has been
solved, if the latest story, and it is thrill
ing one, be true. The murderer was in
this city not so very long ago and may be
here yet, but no one has got track OF him
up to the present time. On July 26, 1889,
M. Gouffe, marshal of Paris, was foully
murdered, and his body packed in g. trunk
| and with the head done up in rubber bag
| found in ditch in Millery wood near Ly-
ons. The department of justice sought
long for a c1ew and found that a handsome
brunette named Gabrielle Bompard had
been intimate with the dead man, but had
disappeared and could not be found. In
the latter part of January the woman sud
denly turned up in the Office Of the project
of police and told story which caused the
arrest of two Paris citizens as accessories
to the crime. Gabrielle Bompard said she
came to Paris from America to tell the po-
lice all she knew about the murder. She
said it was true that Michael Eyraud,
who had been suspected of the
crime, was the guilty man. The
brother-in-law, was told of the crime and
gave them money to take them to Ameri-
ca. They went to England and thence by
way of Quebec to New York and San
Francisco. She travelled as Eyraud's
dsughter, but he soon began to treat her
with great brutality. In San Francisco a
rich Frenchman, whose name, is kept Sc
cret, took great fancy to her, and as he
was generously inclined the guilty pair
proftted by his largess. He sympathzed
greatly with Gabriele's sufferings, -.
finally she told him about the murder
Eyraud has increased her disgust OF
him, she said, by suggesting plan of get
ting hold of her new friends fortune and
then numbering him, and she told the lat
ter about this also. He insisted that sht
return to Paris and make confession O.
the whole business, promising to accom-
pany her there and do his best to save he
, from unnecessary trouble. She accepte,
this offer and gave herself up. 1t is under
stood in Paris that Inspector Byrnes i
looking for Eyraud, but that astute officia
: when asked said that he had not heard o
any such rogue being in this city.

STANLEY'S NATIONALITY.
He Tells an Agent of the Khedive that he is a
aCitizen of the World.

Especial to THE HERALD--Examiner Dispatch
CAIRO, Feb. 6.-TBy cable to the New
York Herald The Egyptian government
desiring to ascertain whether Stanley was
an American or Englishman, ordered
Blurn Pasha to ask him the question.
Stanley replied, after moments hesita-
ton, Neither. l am cosmopolitan; the
world is my country"
Wheter or not Stanley is an American
citizen is a matter of doubt. He served in
the confederate army and then, it is said,
joined the northern forces. In one of his
talks with Thomas Stevens recently pub
lished, he declared that he ''considered''
himself an American. In the early days of
his newspaper career he was known as an
American, but after his discovery Of Liv-
ingstone, when first light was thrown upon
his early history, it became known that he
was born in Wales. In early life he was
known under the name of Rowlands. His
mother, to whom he was devoted and whom
he always visited when in England, died {
few years ago. He took the name of Stan
| ley from his benefactor in New Orleans.

A LIFE OF ROMANCE.
The Checkered Career OF Mrs.
Alice M. La Grove.
CARRIE TURNER'S BOHEMIANISM.
She Secures a Divorce from her Eminently
Respectable Swiss Husband Because Their
Life was too Quiet and Tame.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatchl
New YORK, Feb. GA life full of ro-
nance was ended when Mrs. Alice M. La
Grove died on Monday at her home in
Brooklyn. She was IS years old.
She was the daughter of the late
Isaac Singer, the multi millionaire
sewing machine manufacturer. Mr.. Singer
had at various times several wives by
whom he had many children. Alice was
the favored one. Mr. Singer had her edu-
Gated in Paris, where, at the age of
eighteen, she became the pride of Partisan
society. This was not alone because of her
fathers great wealth, but on account of
her beauty and charming manners as well.
A year following her debut in saciety, to
please her father, she married w. A. P.
La Grove, a man twice her age, whose hal
was tinged with gray. 1t was a character
istic French marriage, the parents making
the match. The difference in age between
the bride and bridegroom soon began to be
felt and as a result, shortly after the two
came to this country suit for separa-
ton ensued, followed by an action for
absolute divorce. 1t was decided in the
woman's favor. In the meantime Mr.
Singer had died. The somewhat peculiar
nature of several marriages had become
matter for the courts to decide. The liti-
cation ended in his children being declared
legitimate, and the manufacturers millions
were divided among them. Alice, the
favorite daughter, became immensely rich
Soon after her divorce, Mrs. La Grove be-
came fascinated with the stage to such an
extent that she desired to star and did star
with company of her own, paying the en-
tire expenses out of her own pocket. She
tired of this, but not until she had met
Frank Bangs, the actor, for whom
she formed strong attachment When
she left the stage, Bangs became more
attentive to her, and after a years court
ship the couple at 9 o'clock at night rang
the door bell at the residence of the late
Henry Ward Beecher, on Columbia
Heights, and asked him to make them man
and wife. They took the midnight train
for Philadelphia, having telegraphed for
elegant apartments at prominent hotel.
The honeymoon was very brief, for next
mornings express from Philadelphia to
New York was carrying Mrs. Bangs with
all possible speed to her home in Brooklyn
with a determination of having her mar
riage with Mr.. Bangs annulled on an I'M
usual ground. Suit was subsequently
brought, and Bangs putting in no defense,
, it was decided in the woman'S favor. Since
then Mrs La Grove, as she called herself
after she had been divorced from Bangs,
: has been living a quiet life in Brooklyn.
She leaves, aside from large estate, sixty
of her stage costumes with Jewels valued
at about one hundred thousand dollars.
Her funeral will take place on Saturday
Actor Frank Bangs, who played such a
singular part in the woman's life, is lying
at the Sturtevant house very ill from
pneumonia.

Emperor Williams Anti Socialist DEGREES.

LONDON, Feb. 6.-The Standards Berlin
correspondent says that the main purpose
of the Emperor's desires is to render I'M
necessary any exceptional anti-Social legis-
lation after the expiration of the limit
within which the present law has force.
The correspondent says the effect of the
Emperor's desires can only be CON-
pared to that produced by the news of the
Prussian victories in 1866 and in 1870.
The Emperor is spoken of as 1.-THE
beggars' Emperor" and in terms of similar
suggestion. The Austrian press praises
highly the noble initiative, but is sceptical
as to the success of such conference.
The Times Berlin correspondent believes
the semi official journals are correct in
their statement that the chancellor acqui-
esces in the Emperor's socialistic policy
and observes that Bismarck never cared g
great deal for political consistency.
