For Second visit-Last Day Was
Spent On Deutschland.
New York, March 12-Prince Henry
OF Prussia sailed for Germany on
board the HamburE-American liner
Deutschland yesterday afternoon. His
last day in America was spent entirely
on board the Deutschland, but 1t was
well filed with pleasing incidents.
The prince breakfasted early and
about 10 o'clock began to receive Of
hcial farewell visits, including repre-
sentatives OF Germany In this coun-
try and those OF the United States
government. Mayor Low, OF New
York, was also a caller, and the prince.
In bidding him farewell, gave a hint
that he had some intention OF return
Ing to America for a second visit.
The members Of the party that &C
companied the prince on his tour were
his guests at luncheon in the dining
room OF the steamship, and music was
furnished by the band from the Hob
enzollern. At the close OF the lunch
con, when it came time to say good
bye, the prince. taking rose from the
table, said: This is the badge of that
which | have been admiring during my
entire trip to the United States
American beauty"
Immediately after the luncheon. at
the princes invitation, theparty went
to the commanders bridge OF the
Deutschland and was there photo
graphed. Then the real leave-taking
began. The final farewells were said
by the members Of the Germany en-
bassy at Washington. When the snip
sailed all approaches and the pier
house were crowded. The first cabin
section of the Deutschland was packed
all afternoon with passengers and
their friends. and in many cases WON
en- had TO be rescued from the crush
to see the prince.
The Deutschland sailed at S.45. AS
she moved away from the pier the
cheering was continued. The prince
appeared on the bridge and bowed. All
down North river the passing tugs and
craft OF every description gave the
great liner and her distinguished pas
senger a noisy send-off At the Bat
terry, which was reached exactly at 4
O'Clock. a great crowd had gathered
and cheered as the vessel steamed
on down the bay. Forts wadsworth
and Hamilton fired salutes, whiCSh
were answered by the Deutschland's
whistle, and the garrison at Fort
Wadsworth lined up on the blurr until
the steamer had passed out into the
lower bay. The Deutschland is due
at Hamburg on Monday aen-
The imperial yacht Hohenzollern
started on her homeward trip at 2.4O
O'Clock yesterday afternoon.

This is certainly a most generous offer
and the following, taken from their
dali y mail, shows what men think of
their generosity:
Dear Sirs-The results could not
have been better. l noticed warm feel
ing, as of returning life, an exquisite ex-
perience of renewed power, the first day
used your treatment, and cannot
Withhold and expression of gratitude to
You for having thus led me TO the way
OF restoration, strength and vigor. Ev-
erything looks brighter; life offers more
than ever supposed it would, and moth
ing can be of more service to weaken
ed man than your priceless receipt"

informed HIM, between and 10 O'Clock
In the morning, and while he was alb
sent at mill about three miles distant
That evening Sheriff Harris visited
the house and the statement made by
Mr.. Burruss was con T ned Shy his wife
Steps were then taken for the capture
of the supposed fiend. but no trace OF
him could be obtained.
So indignant were the citizens over
the supposed crime, that the Governor
was TO be appealed to for reward, and
the county itself inten led TO do likewise
1t was while the latter was being con
sldered at the county seat last Monday
that information was received giving
strong evidence that no assault had
been committed.
WHAT INVESTIGATION REVEALED.
1t was then determined to investigate.
with the result that it was ascertained
that there had neither been an assault
nor a robbery.
The S63 which disappeared was dis
posed of by Mrs. Burruss hersels, and a
large part of il given to a member OF
her family, who is said to have connived
With her to put out the report in order
to shield herself and deceive her hus-
band.
What will now be done in the matter
is unknown, but if law can be found
under which Mrs. Burruss can be pros
ecuted, there is no doubt whatever that
she will be arrested.
While all of the citizens are indignant
over the matter, especially so are the
authorities, and Mr.. Burruss himself.
Then follows another report:
SP0TTSYLvANIA COURTHOUSE, VA.
March Especially thorough and
searching investigation of the Burruss
assault case was made on yesterday by
Sheriff I. s. Harris and Common
wealth's Attorney Lee ]. Graves before
Justice Carol Goodloe.
A number of witnesses were examin-
ed, and their testimony revealed beyond
a shadow of doubt the fact that Ms.
Burruss had herself used the money OF
her husband, and fearing his censure
for so doing, sl1ilfully laid the criminal
assault plan for the purpose of decep-
ton, which plan was, on her part, So
astutely conceived and executed that il
not only misled and deceived her hus
band, but the county Officials as well
For some days sensational develop
ments seemed imminent, but happily by
means of a searching Investigation, the
person TO whom suspicion pointed SO
strongly has been vindicated, and what
at one time promised 70 be stigmr
upon the county, has r, Owed itself II o
a mere case of deception.
This case will attract much attention
in view of the constantly recurring
charges of criminal assault and robbery
Mrs. BURRUss should be punished, and
the result of her case will be watched
with increasing interest.
