dcn's sympathy with the Prin-
cess.
Berlin, Dec. 24-The Lokal Anzeiger
to-day prints a dispatch from Dresden,
saying that King George of Saxony
sent several of the highest officials to
Geneva to observe and report on the
action of the fugitive Crown Princess
Louise. One official returned yesterday
by way of Vienna. The other will re-
main at Geneva.
A divorce of the Crown Prince and
Crown Princess is regarded as impossi-
BILE, during the lifetime of King
George, who entertains stringent religi-
Gus scruples against divorce. The
Protestant clergy, however, hope that
Berlin will bring pressure to bear for
divorce.
The Crown Prince beat the Crown
Princess, according to an editorial
statement in the Vossische Zeitung, one
of the most careful newspapers pub
lished in Berlin. which adds:
Their disagreements reached this
crisis In June, after Prof Girod be-
came the children's tutor. The Prin-
cess at that time considered seeking
divorce and visited her best friend,
the Princess Therese of Bavaria. who
dissuaded her. The Princess, however,
after returning to Dresden, did not re-
sumo marital relations"
The sympathy of the people of Dres-
den seems wholly with the Princess.
who is of a cheerful. pleasure-seeking
disposition. The Crown Prince loved
to- torment her. Among the writer's
forbidden her were Tolstoi. lola and
Nitzsche. Prof. Andre Giron is de-
scribed as an idealist of the extreme
type. 1t is related that his family once
considered the question OF combining
him in an asylum because he refused
a legacy on grounds of delicacy Of

The proposed memorial structure is
an enlargement of the original plan to

LAURA BIGGAR WAS
ACQUITTED BY JURY
Her Alleged CO-Conspirators Were
Convicted.

Freehold, n. j., Dec 24.-Laura Big
gar was acquitted and DR.. Charles C.
Hendrycks and Samuel Stanton. for
merly justice of the peace, were found
guilty by the jury to-day in the case
against the three defendants on the
charge of having conspired to get pos
session of the entire estate of Henry
M. Bennett, a capitalist of Pittsburg.
The jury, which retired at 4:30
o'clock yesterday afternoon, remained
out all night, and to-day asked the
court if the jury might convict two of
the defendants and acquit one. The
court said such a verdict would be
legal, and later in the day the verdict
as stated was returned.
Miss Biggar laid claim to the entire
estate of Bennett, who died recently,
leaving large fortune, as his wife,
and as the heir of a child of Bennett,
which she said was born to her after
his death and soon died. DIR. Hen
drycks was her physician and the pro-
prletOr of Sanitarium in which the
child was said to have been born.
Stanton said he had united Miss Big
gar and Bennett in marriage, and a
marriage certificate signed by him
played an important part in the case.
The claim of Miss Biggar was con-
tested by persons who laid claim to
being the rightful heirs of Bennett,
and they made the charge of conspir-
acy. Under the will Miss Biggar was
bequeathed large part of the estate.
