An Action for Libel Brings Out
Some Strange Facts Regard
Ing Imperial Court
OTHERS CONTROL EMPEROR
Won MoItke 10 Alleged to Have Said
"hls Majesty Only Hears
What Allow Him
10 Know.

by Gen. Count kuno Won Moltke
against Maximilien Harden, editor Of
Die Zukunft q free lance Polemical
weekly and long an organ Of the
editors extreme radical opinions, be-
gan here before Justice Kern.
The public awaited the trial with
extraordinary interest because 1t was
believed that many secrets of the i'm
perial court would be drawn from the
distinguished persons summon to tes-
tify, some Of whom are members of
the imperial encourage. Won Moltke
is an intimate friend of Prince Phillip
Zu Fulenburg, the ex-German ambas-
sador to Vienna, and a kinsman of the
present chief of the general STAFF,
Lieutenant General Count Helmuth
Won Moltke, and Of the governor of
the province Of last Prussia, Fred
crick Won Moltkc. These three Won
Moltkes are Eephews of the late great
Field Marshal Won Moltke.
Harden began last November to as
sert that Count Zu Eulenburg was the |
head of group at court that sought
to influence the emperor's political
actions by subtle, indirect suggestions.
Count zu Eulenburg, Count Kunu Won
Moltke and Lieutenant General Count
William Won Hohenau, one of the en-
peror's adjutants, were mentioned by
Harden as members of the so-called
Camarilla or round table," and he
further alleged that they were spiri.
tualists and of abnormal temperament
and habits.
According to report the crown
prince, Frederick William made an
inquiry into the charges in May and
went to his father with the result of
his investigation, which caused Count
zu Eulenburg, Count Won Moltke and
Lieutenant General Hohenau suddenly
to resign. Few of the 10000 appli-
cants for cards of admission to the
court room were able to get them and
.hese largely were lawyers, witnesses
and reporters.
At the afternoon session of the court
Harden said he did not accuse Won
Moltke of criminal acts but he re-
yarded his friendship with Prince zn
as erotic in character, for ?
he plaintiff, he said, had once pressed u
he princes handkerchief to his lips II
nd cried "Phili, my Phili," and In G.
rriting him letter had made use of 81
he terms "My SOUL" and my b. u

Frau Won Elbe, the divorced wife Of
Juno Won Moltke, testified to the
ross epithets that her former hus. M

1jacent room. She declared also that n,

AcALLFOR TROOPS
Commander Of the Department Of
Missouri Received Orders to
Send Soldiers at Once.
The utes On Cheyenne River Reserva.
tlon Are Again Causing Appre-
hensIon--GoIng From
Three Forts.

Omaha, Neb., Oct. 25.-Dispatchei
were received Thursday evening from
Washington by Major Moves, in com
mand Of the department of Missouri
ordering troops to be sent to the
Cheyenne River reservation immedi,
ately, where 1t is understood the Ute
Indians have become restless again
after their voluntarily transposition
from their Utah lands last year. Fol-
lowing the instructions from Washing
ton orders have been sent to Fort
Des Moines, that four troops compos-
ing squadron Of the second cavalry
proceed with all haste to the Chey.
enne Agency where Indian Agent
Downs is located. 1t Is expected the
soldiers will reach the end of the
railroad Friday night and will be at
the scene of the uprising within "a
hours thereafter.
Orders were sent to the troops at
Forts Meade, Des Moines and Robin.
son late Thursday afternoon to be in
readiness for instant departure upon
receipt OF advices from Fort Meade
that Agent Downs had telegraphed for |
troops. When Washington was pro-
vided with the facts, the order for
the squadron from Fort Des Moines
was issued. Fort Meade is the near
est military point to the reservation,
100 miles distant, but only one troop
is located there of the sixth cavalry.
Seven are at Fort Robinson, belong
ing to the eighth regiment, 200 miles
away. but the distance by rail is
least from Des Moines.
The cause of the unrest among the
Indians is not explained, nor has the
army headquarters here any informa-
ton. The Utes own much land of
their own from which their sustenance
Is derived, and 1t is thought likely
rations became low for some reason
as the tribe has been mutterlng for
some weeks following a period of
plenty.

Washington, Oct. 25.-Colonel
Downs, special agent of the Indian
ONCE, is at the Cheyenne river reser-
walton and telegram was received
from him saying that the Utes had
become unruly and troops are need
ed. Fort Meade is about 100 miles
from the reservation and 1t will be
necessary for the cavalry to make a
cross-country hike" as there is no
railroad between the two points.
1t was dissatisfaction with advanc-
Ing civilization that caused the Utes
to leave their reservation in Utah and
take the road the last time. The sec.
rotary Of the interior finally agreed
that the Indians would not be com
PEELED to return to Utah but that they
must settle down on some reservation.
At the Ute's request the Cheyenne
River reservation was slected and two
townships were leased for a period Of
tve years In order to supply them
with homes.
There are about 600 Of the Utes In
volved, including many young Indians,
among whom the greatest dissatisfac-
ton has been shown.

the time of thanksgiving. In the Jewish

chasthora," and at every synagogue
and temple the elders Of the congrega-
ton will carry about the aisles Of the
temple the scrolls of the law, and the
rabbi will read from the Thora the
last chapter of the fifth book of Moses
and the first chapter of the first book
of Moses, thus fulfilling the law which
requires the five books of Moses to
be read each year.
The children of the congregation in
each synagogue and temple also take
part in the rejoicing. and their share
of the interesting ritual and service Is
one of the most attractive. Every
Jewish place of worship tonight will
welcome visitors. the galleries being
always reserved for strangers on these
occasions.

name from Gerth to Mason When his
father married for the second time.
He Is a son by q former marriage.
Although the testimony covered only
the execution of the will, which was
proven to have been legally done. the

at the time the papers were first filed,
was that DIR. 6erth was not lawfully
married to the woman who now, under
the decision, gets the estate, as the Will
provides.
Herbert w. Knight appeared for the

Defeat at Hands of Sullivan Convinces
Australian He Is a "Has Been"

SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 30.-Billy
Squires, the heavyweight fighter of AUS
tralia, was SO thoroughly whipped I'm his
battle with Jack CTwln) Sullivan here
Saturday night that he has decided to
quit the ring for good. He said after the
fight that he had lost the old-time power OF
his punch and that It was useless for him
to continue his career as a fighter.
The seconds OF Squires threw up the
sponge in the nineteenth round, when they
saw the Australian was practically help
less.
In this round the Australian was bleeding
and seemed weak. Sullivan sent in a right
and a left to the jaw, and Sduires went
down. He remained ON the floor eight sec
onds, and then staggered to his feet. An
other punch to the aw sent him down
again, but he was not knocked out. He
got up, but was promptly punched down
again. Referee Billy Roche then awarded
the fight TO Sullivan.
In the early round Squires made a fairly
good showing, but Sullivan soon discovered
that the Antipodean had no defence and
proceeded 10 jab him groggy. Squires
proved game TO the end.

HOLDS UP PERMIT.
Inquiry to Be Made Regarding Amer
can Salvation Army.

A representative of the American
Salvation Army called at Mayor Hauss-
ling's office this morning to request a
permit for his organization to hold
open-air meetings in the street. 1t is
the usual custom to grant these per-
mits to known bodies without n pre-
llminaries, but Wilson ]. Vance. pri-
vate secretary of the Mayor, told the
representative that he was unable to
grant the permit without first seeing
the Mayor about the matter.
This precaution was taken. because
of the trouble in the ranks of the
army, which had been given much
newspaper notoriety lately.
There were charges within the or
ganization made by former members Of
the association, and Mr.. Vance did not
wish to take it upon himself to grant
the permit, as he usually does, until
he had interviewed the chief executive
on the matter.
The man was angry, but promised to
call tomorrow and see the Mayor per-
sonally.
