THE IRON GRAND DUKE.
Vladimir, the Typical Tyrant. W!'o
Would Steep Russian Soil in
Blood.

Me- York special: The strongest, the
cruelcst, the most imperious man in Rus
sia today is the Grand Duke Vladimir, eld-
est uncle of the car. on him In this
emergency depends. to a great extent. the
fate of the monarchy. He seeks to save
the throne because he wants to occupy 1t
himself.
From one who knows him. who saw him
daily for n month at a time at n Russian
health resort. and who has had long talks
with him, the following description comes:
His counlcnance did not move a muscle
when ne spoke. l noticed that his cyelids
did not wink for minutes at a tine. His
was a face of iron, b~ctokening a domlnat-
ing, imperious fearless character.
We were staying at the same hotel. He
was accompanied only by one aide de
ar a young major of. the guards. but
neither wore any kind of uniform or dec
Grafton. l called on him in his apart
ments.
1t was easy to recognize the impcrious-
ness Of the man in his sharp, clcar-cut
sentences. His eyes never shifted about.
but ook you through and through. His
teeth sometimes chopped off his words as
do President Eoosevelts. although there
was none of the presidents energetic man
nerisms about him. He was more like
Richard Croker. His beared face was
shaven at the chin. exposing a tenacious.
iron jaw that denoted his strength OF char
acter.
Talked Very Frankly.
lie talked with surprising ~frankncss, re-
vca!ing that he strongly favored the ex-
pansion of Russia into Manchuria and the
far east. That policy which has led to
the wal with Japan has been ascribcd to
Vladimir, and l know he vigorously urged
1t Oh the government.
l asked him whether 1t was true that
the czar was kept in ignorance Of many
things that went On in Russia. and espe-
cially in connection with the peoples de-
mands for greater freedom.
His reply was a sheer at persons who
were foolish enough to believe such re-
pores. The rulers of Russia, he said, knew
what was best for the people; that the
masses We're not fitted yet to control
themselves. l spoke of a conversation l
had had with a Russian official who told
inc that the people could only be allowed
to advance a step at a time, because to
give them too much freedom would be to
turn their heads and ruin the country.
Vladimir expressed his agreement with the
statement.
If Vladimir has d free hand the revolu-
ton will be crushed will an iron hand If
Russia runs with blood.

DEFENDANT
PATIENT SEEKS RECoMPENSE
James Connor Asserts That a Bag of
Gold Was Taken From Around
His Waist Previous to
Operation

"As they put me on the operating
table and started to undress me one
Of the attendants removed my money
belt and carried it away and that is
the last 1 have seen of it." testified
James Connor yesterday afternoon In
Justice Pierce's court, in stating his
claim against the Los Angeles In
firmary, against which he has brought
suit for the recovery of S235 alleged to
have been taken from him several
months ago while he was an inmate
of the hospital.
Two sisters Of mercy, clad in the
snow white garments of their order,
appeared for the defense and their
testimony was simple and no cross-ex-
animation was made
According to the allegations of Con-
nor he was injured in an explosion
last March. He was taken to the Los
Angeles Inflrmary and his condition
was so serious that an immediate op-
Grafton was deemed necessary.
Belt Lined With Gold
He was taken to the operating room
and undressed by an attendant named
Quinlan. Buckled about his body, Con-
nor says he wore an old and soiled
money belt lined with gold pieces,
which he asserts he begged to be al
lowed to keep as it represented all his
savings. Don't take that belt away"
he said. 1T has all my money in it."
Quinlan removed the belt and handed
it to friend Of Connors, telling him to
give 1t to one Of the sisters. The
friend walked to the hall, wrapped the
belt in a paper and gave it to Sister
Catherine, according to the testimony
yesterday. Here is an old greasy
belt" he Is alleged to have said, and
the sister threw the bundle into a
to Connor.
None of the officers of the hospital
knew of the contents of the belt and
supposed that Connor's valuables con-
sisted of 81 in his pocketbook and a
gold watch which had been locked in
a safe.
The next day Connor begged for his
belt. A search was made when the
valuable contents of the strip of leather
were learned and the belt was missing.
So was Quinlan, the attendant who
took the belt from Connor, and neither
have been seen since.
Connor did not learn of the loss of
his belt until his recovery and he i'm
mediately filed suit. The case was
submitted on briefs yesterday.
