BROTHER SAYS SHAH
 LIKES MASSACRES

Vienna August S.-The brother of the Shah Prince Schoa -Assaltane, is reg istered here at one of the leading hotels under an assumed name. He is travel ing with his 7-year-old son and a sec retary only. To correspondent he Said
 q went away from Persia to fore stall further bloodshed, I at least want to be innocent of the massacres going on in my country. As you know the constitutional party wants to put me on the throne, but unless l can become king without causing the death of a number of my people, l prefer to re- main simple citizen.
 My brother, the Shah, I am sorry to say, is a tyrant and a man of savage and barbaric nature. He likes these blood baths and very frequently wit nesses the fusillading of people and the torturing of prisoners"
 The Shah's brother Is a mild man of intelligent appearance. He received his education in Europe.

NEXT WAR TO COST
 BILLIONS YEARLY

Berlin, August S.-The next great Euro pean war will cost an expenditure of blood and money that will make all pre- vious wars seem insignificant That is the gist of an important report pi resented by General Blume, an eminent military expert, to the German general staff on the probable cost of modern European war.
 If war broke out next year or next week Germany could put in the field 4,750O00 troops. A war fought against another European power would cost Ger many at least s1,7OO,OOO,OO0 a year as long as hostilities lasted, while the indirect loss through financial and commercial stagnation would be far greater. As the nation or nations at war with Germany would suffer in at least the same propor- ton, the drain on the resources of Europe would be appalling.
 Appalling, too would be the losses of the armies in killed and wounded. Gen. eral Blume estimates that the casualties would exceed the 20 per cent recorded on the Japanese side in the late war, and that European war would be "verit- able orgy of blood"

to death. Despite all his precautions, he was murdered in the most revolting man. ner. After his body had been horribly mutlated and the keys of his house were thrown Inside 1t. the corpse was then burned
 The relations of Demartino accused Marzuelo of the crime, but the police were unable to obtain evidence to con vict him of it. On Thursday, however. the son of Demartino avenged himself on the supposed murderer of his father. Finding Marzuelo at Saida, near Tunis, he stabbed him time after time, and afterwards cut his victims head off. It is expected that the crime will lead to further bloodshed and that the family of the dead brigand will organize terrible vendetta.

PRINCE INDICTED
 OVER $5OOO LOAN

Vienna. August S.-Prince Alexander Radzivill. whose family was formerly sovereign in certain districts of Poland is under indictment for perjury and libel. It appears that his highness bor- rowed, eight years ago, from a certain Vienna hotel keeper named Gratzl, the sum of $5000, giving his note for the amount.
 Six years later Gratzl, being unable to collect, sued the prince. The latter then swore he had never seen Gratzl; that the note was a forgery, and that the hotel keeper was liar and dangerous character.
 The court thereupon dismissed the case and sent Gratzl to prison for per jury.
 When he came out of prison the hotel keeper hunted up the witnesses to his financial transaction with the prince. Three of them were still alive. They reported to the grand jury and also brought documentary evidence in favor of the claim. Consequently the court ordered the case reopened and found indictments against the prince.

QUEEN AMELIA IS
 GREATLY ANNOYED Does Not Relish So Much Publicity DETAILS OF CIVIL LIST Reports of Certain Allowances for Royal Journeys Abroad Are Not
 Comfortng-Health of the
 Pope Is Delicate.
By PAUL VILLlERS.

Paris August 8.-Queen Amelia of Por- tugal Is somewhat annoyed, and has ex- pressed that annoyance to certain high personages of her entourage because of the indiscreet publicity which has been given to certain details of the civil list. especially insofar as concerns certain al- lowances for the purpose of royal jour neys abroad. The Queen, 1t must be re-
 membered, Is highly strung, although she is courageous in crises. In this particular instance 1t is not the press that troubles her under the Portuguese censor that could easily be muzzled. No, it is rather
 that vague public talk, that unnecessary and irresponsible gossip which is irritat- Ing to any defined mind, and which, while containing basis of fact is all too often the strict truth.
 Pope Plus X Is 73 years of age, and all though there Is no reason to fear an inn mediate change, 1t cannot be denied that the ouickness with which he becomes fa- tigued, the lightness of the nourishment which his doctors order him to take, his
 signs of physical distress after audiences,
 and his general paleness, all show that
 
 are telling upon him.
 The finishing touches are being put to the luxurious villa Carolina at Ostend, | which is connected by discreet passages with the Villa Irism where King Leopold | will go for the rest of the summer at | the end of July. The villa Carolina is , it is hardly necessary to add. the resi- | dence of the Baroness Voughan, who in
 spite of recent jangling has regained | His Majestys favor. Nothing has been left undone to make the courtesan's villa
 worthy of it's royal occupant.
