KING LEoPoLD's COURT BoYcorTED.

There is something almost pathetic in the en-
oeavors that are constantly being made by King
Leopold OF Belgium to induce his fellow rulers TO
visit hIm at Brussels, which has been vigorously
boycotted by foreign soveregns and by royalty in
general ior a number of years past. in consequence
OF the many scandals of his private life. II may
be remembered that when the King and Queen of
Italy visited Paris in state. Leopold called upon
them IN order TO ask them visit him Brussels
before returning home. He has addressed similar
invitations TO the King and Queen Of Denmark. to
the King of Spain. to the King and Queen of Nor
way and to the King and Queen of Portugal, all Of
whom have declined 10 show themselves with him
Brussels.
authoritative denials emanating from the court Of
Berlin of the stories printed at Brussels, 10 the
effect that Emperor William and his consort would
pay a state visit TO Brussels their way home
from their state visit 10 England next month. The
denial, which is couched in language that is little
short Of insulting TO Leopold. states that the Ka-
and the Kaiserin will visit the Queen of Hol-
land on their way back from England but that
under the circumstances there could never have
been any question Of any state visit 20 the court
of Belgium. In fact. the only foreign soveregns
who have visited Leopold in recent years have
been the late Shah of Persia and the present King
of Siam. both Of them monarchs whose domestic
relations of a polygamous character.
The latest scandal in which the King has become
involved is at Paris where the Baroness Vaughan
who has succeeded the Queen OF the Congo" in
his affections, is being sued by her chef in damages
for alleged wrongful dismissal from the Chateau
e Larmoy, Paris. which the King had leased
three months ago from the American widow Of the
late French sugar refner Henri Say. for the bar
oness and himself The baroness gives as her rea-
son for the dismissal Of the chef that her sense
of proprtety had been offended by his pronounced
irtatious with one of the~kitchen maids. and the
affair is a source of considerable amusement and
entertainment TO the Partisan boulevard press.

ALDERMEN UP ON
PERJURY CHARGE
Arrest of Peters and Cronin as
Result of Bribery 1nvesti-
cation.
CLIFFORD TO GRAND JURY
Sensational Developments Grow
ing Out of Election ot5Judge
Cowing as Recorder.

NEW YORK, February 1.-The hearing
of the case against Alderman w. S.
Clifford on charges Of bribery in the
election of a recorder of the Court of
General Sessions ended to-day in the
arrest of Alderman Henry C. Peters and
John ]. Cronin on charges OF perjury
Alderman Clifford was held in $4,000
bail for the grand jury. Alderman
Peters, the leader OF the municipal
ownership members of the board, was
held in $4,000 bail, and Alderman Cronln
was paroled on his own recognizance for
a hearing next Friday.
The perjury is alleged to have been
committed by the two Aldermen while
testifying in the case against Clifford,
and dealt particularly with the manner
in which the word was given to the
municipal ownership members to vote for
Judge Cowing for recorder.
1t is charged that Clifford accepted
$4,000 from Earl Harding. who pretend
ed to be acting in the interests of the
Judge. but who had no authority there
for. to swing the votes of the eleven
Municipal Ownership League men to
Judge Cowing. The charges against
Peters are based on his testimony given
yesterday, to the effect that he did not
instruct the Aldermen TO vote for Judge
Cowing until after Clifford and Cronin
had already cast their votes for him.
After hearing those two members vote
he said he sgnalled to the others to
vote for Judge Cowing. He declared
however, that he had mentioned Judge
Cowing's name to the others as a pos
Sible candidate. some days earlier.
Several others of the Aldermen testi-
fled previously that Peters instructed
them to vote for Judge Cowing before
Clifford cast his vote. This conflict of
testimony led to charges Of perjury.

and at midnight all the saloons in the
city had promptly closed their doors, or

Only two violations of the new ordi-

both of these places because the OBJ
