ECCENTRIC PRINCESS
WHO DID NOT PAY DEBTS
Titled German Woman on Trial
for Fraud and Alleged Breach
of Faith.
GIFTED, BUT RECKLESS

BERLIN, Feb. 1.-The trial of Princess
Alexandra of Ysomburg and Budingen, who
was declared bankrupt Jan. 6. on the
charges of fraud and breach of faith toward
numerous firms at Frankfort Munich, Cas-
sci, Stuttgart and Constance, with whom
she contracted debts recklessly, without
having the ability to pay, began to-day at
Frankfort-on-the-Ma Main.
The princess, as granddaughter of the
last electoral prince of Hesse. inherited
several baronials. including Waechtersbach
and Falkenburg. near Cassel and Merin-
gerau, near Munich, each having a fine old
castle. After the two estates had been sold
under foreclosure proceedings the princess
occupied the Meringerau estate, where she
resumed the contraction of debts with
Munich and Augsburg merchants. When
they pressed her for a settlement the prin-
cess fed to Switzerland. After the matter
had blown over she appeared at Saeckingen,
where she said she wanted TO buy the ia
nous castle there, which she eventually
did, being supplied with ample drafts. I'm
mediately after the purchase the princess
ordered the castle to be refurnished with
expensive antique furniture. A few days
later she attempted to take possession of
the castle, but found that the furniture had
been sealed by the sheriff with the seal of
the former owner of the castle, who mean
while had ascertained that the drafts were
worthless, and had begun an action for the
recovery of his property.
The princess again fed to Switzerland
with a large sum of money obtained
through a mortgage which she had partially
placed the castle. The princess then
took up teaching, becoming principal of a
high class girls seminary on Lake Lucerne.
She is described as being highly eccentric.
which apparently caused her divorce from
Baron Won Pagenhardt, who at various
moved aDDOlntmenf a
guardian for the management of her estates.
The trial to-day is the result Of the dis
covery of grave evidence dhring the bank
ruptcy proceedings mentioned in these dis
matches Ian. 6.

ASK NEW LIQUIDATOR
FOR CANAL COMPANY
American Official Believes the Re
quest Amounts to Nothing and
VIII Be Refused.

PARIS, Feb. IA number of the stock
holders of the original Panama Canal Com
pany have signed a petition to the minister
OF justice, NJ. Vale. praying for an injunc-
ton against NJ. Gautron, the liquidator of
the company. and the appointment of new
liquidator on the ground that NJ. Gautron
is incompetent to protect their interests.
NJ. Gautron holds sufficient stock of the
original company to have a controlling
voice in the proposed sale of the canal to
the United States.
In explanation of this action an American
official who assisted in the investigation of
the companys affairs made by Attorney
General Knox said tonight that this petit
ton amounted TO nothing, as the entire
question had been fully considered by the
courts during the previous litigation be-
tween the old and new companies.
The question was. therefore. one which
had been decided by a court of competent
jurisdiction. and moreover the Ministry of
Justice is in favor of sustaining the regu-

NEW NATURALIZATION
TREATY WITH HAITI
In Case Citizens Return to Haiti
They viii Lose Citizenship Aft
er Five Years Absence.

WASHINGTON. Feb. LIN the executive
session to-day the Senate ratified the nat
uralization treaty between the United
States and Haiti. Six votes were cast in
opposition. The treaty is different from
the usual naturalizst ton treaties in that in
stead OF extending naturalization rights il
abridges them. 1t provided that citizens
of Haiti, who may be naturalized in the
United States and then return TO Haiti
should cease TO be considered citizens of
this country after an absence of five years.
Senators Nelson and Patterson opposed this
provision as contrary TO the established
policy of the United States and in response
TO inquiries. Senators Cullom and Lodge
said the ratification could have no effect
other than that of saving the United
States from complications which were pos
sible under the present system.

DID NOT EL0PE.
Suspicious Regarding Young Cou-
pie Were GI0und!ess.
from MONDAYS Daily,

from Mondays Daily.
The police were called upon Satur-
day evening to assist in locating a young
lady who had disappeared from her
boarding place, and was thought to have
eloped with a student of the Commercial
college. She was known to have been
oat walking with this young man Friday
evening, and as she did not return that
night nor Saturday, suspicious were
naturally aroused. The couple was re-
ported to have been seen at the union de-
pot at train time Friday night.
Investigation Saturday evening and
yesterday by Chief Donahue led to the
locating of the young lady, and all SEN
sational features were stripped from the
story by her statement that. she had
concluded to change her boarding place
and had not thought it necessary to no
tify her other landlady until she went
for her clothing and other effects.
The police found that the young gen.
tleman in question was very nice young
man, who Gould not be inclined to elope
under any circumstances. He is resi-
dent of this city, and the young lady's
home is in town west of Mankato.
Both are said to be excellent young peo-
Pile, and the young lady was thought a
great deal of at her boarding place, and
it had not occurred to the landlady that
she might have changed to another
boarding place, hence her anxiety.
