Not MateriaIize.

Madrid, Jan. 19.-An echo of the re-
markabIe case in which a blacksmith
made fruitless claim TO the title and
millions of the Marquis de Casa Riera was
heard in the Barcelona courts to-day,
when the persons concerned in the claim
were sentenced to various terms of i'm
prisonment-
The story is Spanish counterpart OF
the English Tichborne case.
The blacksmith, Pedro Riera, learned
from his relatives in youth that ne was
connected with the marquis of the same
name. BY some process of reasoning he
began to think that he was the real heir
to the title and the estates. which have
an estimated value OF at least $50,0o0,0e0

listen to his story. In 1881 the old mar
quis died, and the title passed to his
nephew Jose who enjoyed 1t only n few
months when the estates reverted 10 his
brothers. Alexandra and Gonzales In a
few years Gonzales died and Alexandra
came into sole possession.
The claimant declares that both Ale
jandro and Gonzales died some time be-
fore their brother Jose, and that the
holder of the title was really the son Of
an old family steward.
A claim in the courts having failed,

Gouverd. Emilio Soulere, and Louis Prou-

To prove the case false entries were
made in the municipal register of Santa
Margarita y &c Monies. showing that the
death of Gonzales Eiera had been regis

was alleged also that the marquis used 70
lend securities to Nine. Humbert to put
in her famous safe in case the officials
should ever inspect II.
To-day Soulere was sentenced to eight
