CROWN PRINCESS DISAPPEARS.
She Suddenly Leaves Her Husband
and Children.

Dresden, Saxony, Dec 24.-King
erick know where the Crown Princess
Louise has sought refuge, but they
have decided to accept the estrange-
ment of the princess and her husband
as irreparable They have made the
cabinet privy to the circumstances of
the princess fight as they see them,
and a decree of divorce is talked Of
as a necessary sequence to the prin-
cess resolution to leave the court for
ever.
Vienna, Dec. 24.-It has transpired
that the crown princess did not leave
SGizburg by train, but drove across
the frontier to a Bavarian station, and
there entrained. The Journey was bro
ken often to battle pursuers.
Another account of the princess
fight says her leaving the palace was
not voluntary, but that her husband
had elected her after discovering her
liasons, first with an American dentist
and then with the French tutor. When
she left Salzburg accompanied by her
brother, Archduke Leopold Ferdinand,
the princess went to Munich, where
French tutor awaited her. Her
brother was also Joined there by a
Sbeautiful Vienese woman, and the
two couples proceeded to Brussels and
.-ence to Geneva. It appears that

Gently to Dresden after his hunting &C
cident in the Tyrol he discovered Sc
cret correspondence exchanged be-
tween the princess and the French
tutor, whose former relations with her
had created a scandal, resulting in the
tutors expulsion from Saxony.

PASSED THE BLOCKADE
American Vessel Landed at La
Guayra, But Soon Left.
Can Cruise Before La Guayra and
Take on Passengers and Mail, But
on No Account Is She to En-
ter the Port Again.

La Guayra, Dec. 24.-No attempt
was made by the blockading ships 70
destroy the Red D liner Caracas, from
| New York, when she reached the har-
Dor Tuesday morning. A vigorous pro-
test from Lieut.. Commander Diehl, OF
the American warship Marietta, was
! responsible for the change of base on
the part of the captain of the Italian
cruiser Bausan. He had caused it to
be announced Monday that he would
hold up the American liner, and the
news was conveyed to Commander
Diehl. He sent a dispatch about it to
the navy department and then hustled
out to the Italian cruiser.
For an hour he was clOseted with
the Italian commander. What he told
him has not developed, but it was con-
vincing, for soon after word was sent
to the agents of the Caracas that she
could enter, and the steamer, which
had been held at Willemstad, was Or
dered to port forthwith.
The steamer Caracas will not be per-
mitted to enter Puerto CabelIo. She
will be obliged to land the remainder
Of her cargo at Willemstad, Curacao.
Caracas, Dec. 24.-Lieut Command
er Diehl at o'clock Tuesday even
ing endeavored to obtain from the
commanders of the foreign warships
at La Guayra an extension of a few
hours in the time given the steamer
Caracas to remain at her dock in or
der that she might finish unloading.
His request to this end was refused
and he did not insist. The command
ers of the blOckading warships ex-
planned that they were acting on the
orders of the British admirais that
the order given to permit the Cara
cas- to discharge more than the mail
had been given 20 satisfy Commander
Diehl. The Caracas consequently left
her berth at La Guayra at o'clock,
when she had landed not more than
two-thirds of her cargo. Wednesday
the steamer will cruise before La
Guayra and take on passengers and
mail but on no account is she to enter
the port. Mr.. Boulton, of Boulton &
Co., has entered a protest with the
American minister here, against the
action taken with regard to the Car
acas.
La Guayra, Dec. 24.-The allies have
advised the Foreign consuls here that
steamers reaching La Guayra before
December 80 will be allowed to enter
port and discharge their cargOes dur
ing the day, but they will not be al
lowed to take cargo on board. This
ruling has created general dissatisfac-
ton here. AS there is no export duty
on goods shipped from Venezuela the
ruling does not affect the government.
Only the ship workers are affected.
All the mail steamers reaching here
after December 80 will be boarded
from the blOckading squadron and
neutral passengers and the mails will
be sent ashore under a flag Of truce.
No exceptions to this ruling in the
matter of nationality will be made.
A schooner which attempted to en-
ter port at $50 Tuesday night was
captured.

The Medical and Chirugical Faculty of
Maryland, at its semi annual meeting at
Laurel on Tuesday, gave its approval of
State care of the INDECENT insane.
The matter was brought to the attention
of the faculty by an address made by Dr..
G. J. Preston. Secretary of the State Lu-
macy Commission, who spoke on "Alms-
house Cure of the Insane in Maryland"
DR.. Preston said in part: ''In almost
every instance the almshouse is a dis
grace to the county. A doctor, who
usually lives miles away, is supposed to
visit patients occasionally, but is seldom
within reach when they have severe
attack of their malady. Not only are
they without proper medical attention
and treatment, but the sanitary conditions
graceful. State care is the only remedy"
DR.. Preston's paper provoked an ami
mated discussion of a unanimouly favor
