Of her intimate friends and discussed with
them the possibility of her longer endur-

The princess wrote to her mother at tbs

her brother. Archduke Leopold the prin-
cess went to Munich. where a French tu-
tor awaited her. Her brother was also
joined there by a beautiful Viennese
woman and the two couples proceeded to
BRUSSELS, and thence TO Geneva.
1t appears that when the crown prince
returned recently to Dresden, after his
hunting accident in tho Tyrol. he discov-
cred secret correspondence existed be- .
tween the princess and the French tutor. !
whose former relations with her created !
a scandal resulting in the tutors expul-
sion fran Saxony. Besides disclosing the
couples relations. the letter revealed /
another scandal.
Immediately afterwards the princess
left her, home and went to Salzburg. The
fact that she took a trunk filled with
jewelry indicates that she was prepared
for an emergency.
1t is reported that Archduke Leopold
Ferdinand has written to Emperor Fran
els Joseph renouncing his rank and digni-f
ties as a member of the imperial house
and saying he will become a civil sub
ject. The whole of the archdukes career
is redolent with scandal dating from the
time when he started to accompany the
heir TO the throne on a tour of the world.
He only got so far as Colombo, where he
was obliged to leave the ship on account
OF his Scan0dlOuS HDe0ANlOE. ATCHuuho
