PECULIAR SUIT BY BANKS.
Seek to Recover Cash Lent to Prince
That He Might Procure q
Rich Wife.

New York, June 21-It is said that
Prince Leopold, eXhereditary prince of
Izenberg-Bierstein has been sued by
several banks for 35O, 900 marks, which
the compliments say was lent to the
prince that he might make a visit to the
United States in search of a rich wife.
The banks are the Bergische bank, the
German Vereins bank and the Wurt-
emburg Vereins bank. Papers in the
suit were served on June Z. The banks
demand interest for six years.
To evade his creditors Leopold has
renowned his hereditary title in the
principality whose name he bears, thus
permitting an infant nephew to succeed
him He is now first lieutenant of PruS-
sian infantry. The Izenbergs are cous
ms to the Emperor of Austria.
In 1887 the reigning Prince Carl, huS-
band of Marie Louise, Archduchess of
Austria and Princess of Tuscany, raised
81, 800, 600 to pay mis- floating debts and
ordered Leopold to quit the military
and go upon a tour of the courts of
Europe to seek a wife. He failed to
find one and then the plan to send him
to the United States after an heiress
was adopted. The money for the tour
was borrowed of the banks. 1t was de-
cided that the bride must have a dover
of at least 1900, 900 marks.
The prince came to the United States.
He had no success. In the fall of 1894
the banks were Informed that the
prince was engaged. Afterward the re-
port was denied.
Disguised with his failure the prince
returned to Europe. The banks say he
has been living on the money they lent

testimony of about twenty-five Witness
es, bearing upon the charge of miscon-
duct of yourself toward one Olive GrOh,
a former inmate of the home, our ver-
dict is that the charge is not sustained
by the evidence.
However, we believe you have COM
mitted, innocently perhaps, such acts
of indiscretion in other matters, i'm

superintendent to such an extent as to
warrant us in asking you to tender
your resignation to take effect not later

hereby tender my resignation as SUI
