AMERICAN PRINCE DlSGRACED
p Woman of WI sting Anonymous
Letters, and Was Expelled.

WashIpxtpn. May .l5.-Prince Itur-
bide, who clalms ITO lie the hereditary
heir 70 the Mexican thlNone. has been ex-
PEELED. II is reported, Il prn the Metropol-
jtan club ofAhis city.
The reasons for this summary action
are rather hard to get az, as all inter
ested parties refuse TO talk, but they
are understood 10 be. sbou as follows:
For sonse time past the wives OF some
OF the most. pruarinent society men here
have received anonymous letters, con-
tanning mea'a ihsh motions against them
and also threatening to convey inforna-
ton of the Observation-Disclosures 10 their
husbands.
While every effort was bding made to
keep secret the fact that such anony-
nous communications had been re-
ceived, the wA'es OF Abe pro minent, men
began to get letters conta ming grave
charges against their husbands. The
letters were con posed by crnttng words
from printed ma tier so that there might
be no danger of Identification OF the
handwriting. TIE receipt of these let
tiers naturally became the talk OF the
club. Prince Itta 'bide first atrr1cted at
tention by declaring that they had been
composed by Miss Williams. a popular
young society lady Of Waship gton. who
has many friends In the club, 1t is said
thai Mr.. Henry May, also u member of
the organtzo ton, c~orroborated this
charge. Tire board OF managers of the
club concluded that It was their duty to
inquire into the matter, aS a lady well
and popuyarR' known had been charged
with so seriotaI an o~ffense.
They ascertained hat Iturbide had
been engaged to be married to Miss
Williams and hat she had broker off
the match, also,that whesl she informed
Iturbide that She would AVE nothing
more to do wkh~hIm, he threatened ugly
He old her that he
would make he regret the action she
was taking.
of the club exonerated Miss Williams.
1t demonstrated beyond doubt that she
a no knowledge of the source of the
anonymous letters.
The first action of the board upon as
certaining that a g~rossNNtrHge had been
, krpstrated upon. Miss Williams, was TO
nation wouYd Is accepted~K forwarded
Immediately. The prince paid no atten-
ton to this communication, and at the
last meeting OF the board he was ex-
| PEELED.
The case of Mr.. Henry May. who re-
jterated the charge, wiz be investigated
by the board, and II is likely he, too,
will be expelled. The name OF the au-
thor OF the communications is still q
mystery.
