HERR Is UNDER ARREST
French Detectives Visited His Apart
ments in London Last Night.
HE Is TOO I'LL TO BE REMOVED.
But the Men Are Taking Turns In
Guarding Him-Expresses a willing
ness to go to France as Soon as His
Health Will Permit.

tors. was arrested here shortly after mid
night this morning by agents Of the
French government at the Tankerville
Hotel, Bownemouth.

at night and while making preparations
for a short stay incide ntally asked for
DR.. Herr. They were told that he was
at the house but was too i'll to see anyone.
They were shown to the patients room,
however, and TO him they also told what
was wanted. He said that he was will
ing to go with them IL the doctor would
agree, but he did not think he could
stand the journey.
The patients doctor was sent for. and
he at once gave it as his opinion that it
would imreril the life of the sick man to
remove him, as he was in a very seri-
Gus condition.
The officers then telegraphed to this
city for instructions and were ordered to
remain in the Doctors apartments and
keep guard until his condition would
allow removal. They accordingly COM
menced their watch aud will take turns
living in the DOCTORS room until he is
well enough to be taken to France.
