gentleman in blue coat with a red collar, who belonged to the period of the Marquis du Plessy without being adorned by his whiteness and lace. The gentleman, staring at me, strangely polite and full of suspicion, conducted me into a well lighted room where skenedonk waited by the farther door, holding the 5ewei case as. tenacfonsly as he would scalp. - < ,e.-.@
 Z entered the farther door 1t closed behind me. @ s
 A girl stood in the center of this tn- ner room locking at me. I9refnember none of It's fittings, except that there was abundant light, showing her clear blue eyes and fair hair, the trans parency of her skin and her high ex- pression. She was all in black except a floating muslin cape or. fiehu, making a beholder despise the hnery of the em- pire. as ss ses,slsgrs-.r sef.-:---.:-...
 We must have examined each other even sternly, though I felt sudden giving way and heaying in my breast. She was so high, so sincere. If I had been unfit to meet the eyes of that princess I must have shrtveled before her. ss
 From side to side her figure swayed, and another young girl, the only at tendant in the room, stretched out both arms to catch her.
 We put her on couch, and she sat gasping, supported by the lady in waiting. Then the tears ran down her face, and kissed the transparent hands, my own flesh and blood be- lieved that hour as I believe to this.
 "Oh, Louis! Louisy'
 The wonder of her knowledge and acceptance of me without claim be- ing put forward was around me like a cloud.

 The door opened, deferring any story. for that noble usher who had brought stood there ready to conduct us to the king.
 My sister rose, and led her by the hand, she going confidently to return the dauphin to his family, and the dau- phin going like fool. Seeing Skene- donk standing by the door, I must stop and fit the key to the lock of the queens casket and throw the lid back to show her proofs given me by one WfIo believed in me ill spite of himself. The snuKbox and two bags of coin were gone, saw with consternation, but the princess recognized so many things that she missed nothing, con- trolling herself as her touch moved from hinket to trinket that her mother had worn.
 Bring this before the kfng," she said. And we took it with us, the noble in blue coat and red collar carrying 1t.
 His majesty&' Marie Therese told me as we passed along corridor, ''tries to preserve the etiquette Of court in our exile. But we are paupers, Louis. And, mocking our poverty, Bonaparte makes overtures to him to sell the right of the Bourbons to the throne of France"

SPECULATION is RIFE AS TO WHO
WILL DIRECT THE RAIL
ROADS,
Harriman's Action in Abandoning Eff
fort to Control Northern Pacific
Causes Much Uneasiness.

NEW YORK, June 1.-The fact
that f. H. Hartman has definitely
abandoned his claim to control of the
Northern Pacific has created a multi
tude of impressions in speculative cir
cles here, and it depends upon the
clique to which one goes which i'm
preston one gets
Mr. Harriman's friends smile when
it is stated that E. II. Hartman has
abandoned his attempt to get control
of Northern Pacific. They say he has
abandoned his attempt to prove him
self entitled to get control from Hill
and Northern Securities. but they say
most decidedly that this abandonment
does not mean that he has given up his
idea of owning that road in the long
run.
A representative of Mr.. Hill. or the
contrary, said during the trial at New
ark:
Mr.. Hartman realizes that from
the moment he handed over his stock
to the Northern Securities company
he ceased to hold control, and that
from that moment his chance of ever
getting control was past. If you want
proof that Hill and Morgan control
in the fact that outside of the $50. 000,-
600 of stock that the Hartman inte-
rests hold. only about $15.00O.0 900. or i
per cent. did not vote for the Hill plan
when it was proposed, and not a share
voted against it. l do not mean that
actual corporate control will rest in
the hands of Mr.. Hill and Mr. Morgan.
I do mean that when they call for prox-
les they will get them.
THE ultimate result of all these
suits and all this controversy, is 60
ing to be a return to sound principles
of finance and business on all the lines
and in all the companies concerned.
They have got to economic as they
have not economical for years. There
is no room in the northwest for the
kind of rivalry that costs money.
There will be none Of it. There is no
chance of its coming as a result of this
suit. or these suits.
People are likely to exaggerate the
ntagonism between Mr.. Hill and Mr..
Hartman 1t would surprise most
neople if they knew that these two
men meet on the most friendly terms
at all times. 1 know they do
Outside of these rather definite
statements there is a host of rumors.

Rotten Condition Of Affairs.

To sum it up German southwest At
RIGA is in thoroughly rotten condition
and there is little hope of improve
ment Independent German critics
agree that the one chance of salvation
lies in the unique methods of running
the colony, and the adoption of more
liberal scheme of colonization, with To-
cal government.
The persecution of the liberal ele-
ments at the Russian university and in
the schools by the reactionary govern
ment continues with such relentless
yigOr that the day does not seem tar
distant when these institutions will
have to be closed for want of students.
In addition to the ferment among the
students. dissatisfaction is rife among
the professors and designations are OF
FREQUENT occurrence.
Three hundred students of the Uni
varsity Of Technology at Starklom have
been expelled for protesting against the
enforced retirement Of Prof. Jasnopol-
slv, although he was accused by ma
tionalists of alphabetically crltlclslng
the war. At the technical school a pro-
spective list of 217 has been handed
in to the government, six professors OF
the St. Petersburg School OF Mines
,,a,.o had 70 retire. Their only offense
was that they advised less drastic
measures against student demonstra-
tons.
At odessa university 800 progress
sives handed the professor OF iilller"l-
ogv an address of thanks for ms cour-
aqeous attitude in refusing TO lecture

aagna At this school 200 further
arrests have been made in addition 10
