WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-There is
little likelihood of any definite action
being taken at this session of con-

Japanese immigration despite the in

The Japanese apparently have the
ability to control all questions which
have been raised by administration

from satisfied with the present status
of the question and President Roose-
Welt is anxious, in view of the repre-
sensations of the Japanese foreign Of

portunity to solve the questions them
selves without recourse to treaty stipu-

INTRIGUE FOR AN ESTATE.
Polish Countess Charged with Sub.
StitutIng Child which She
tiq.3. Claims Rs Her own.

A sensation has been caused among
the Polish and German nobility by the
arrest of Countess Isabella Weisierska
Kwileski, wife of a great Polish mag
nate, on the charge of substituting a
child as her own for the purpose of
securing for her family an estate of
$4,000 acres.
The story reads like an old-fashioned
romance. The incidents were first
made public in 1896, when the countess
claimed that she had borne a male
child. She was then so years old, and
had not borne a child for II years. The
remarkable, though not impossible,
occurrence excited the suspicion of
Count Mirjislaw Kwileski, a member
of the upper house of the Prussian
diet, and the head of a collateral
branch of the family, which, in the
event of the countess and her husband
dying without a son, would have in
herited the estate.
When the child was four years old
Count Mirjislaw thought he had OBJ
tanned sufficient evidence to prove the
substitution. He brought a civil ac-
ton to set aside the boys rights, and
lost the case. This was two years ago.
He continued to gather evidence,
which is now abundant enough to have
induced the police to arrest the
tess, the charge against her being sub
stitution for the sake of gain, to which
a penalty of ten years penal servi-
tude attaches. The trial will take
place in Berlin. Two hundred wit
nesses have been s~ubpoenaed.
Both branches of the family have
many friends in exalted circles, and
the case has caused great excitement
among them.
