TO PATCH UP
 THE ABRUzzI.
 ELKINS MARRIAGE
Special from United states.)

Naples June 14.-ConsideraIble sur Srise was created here today by an apparently authentic story to the eff feet that the Duke and Duchess De- Guisa. who secretly departed on the steamship Berlin, Saturday afternoon, are bound for America for the pur- pose of again patching up the Abruz- xi-Elkins marriage and it is stated in high circles today that Miss Katherine EIkins will accompany the Duke and Duchess back to Italy in order that all objections that have been h1th- erto urged against the marriage may be overcome.
 The Duchess De Guisa is a sister of the Duchess Ellen De Aosta, Abruzzis sister-in-law and has been start. Every precaution was taken to keep the movements of the Duke and Duchess a mystery Nothing was vouchsafed as to the reason for the trip or even the destination of the couple. Duchess Ellen De Aosta re- fuses to see anyone and it is impos- sfble to get any direct word from the family of AbruzM regarding the af- fair.
 LA close friend of the Duke De Abruzzi who is now hunting in the Himalayas said today that the Duke and Miss Elkins have been in constant communication with each other bx cable ever since the Kings objections prevented the marriage last year. Un- i'll the Duke actually plunged into the interior. cable messages passed between him and Miss Elkins every day. It is stated that the Dukes peculiar actions and his despondency have aroused sympathy for him in- the Royal family and that the King and Queen have finally consented to the marriage if the Duke and Duchess De Guisa now on their way to America report favorably.
 Abruzzi, it is stated, declared he would never return to Italy until the marriage was permitted. He is re- ported as saying that he would isolate himself in. the mountains and with polar expeditions where the risk of death is great. The reported acQuies- ence of the King and Queen to the re- opening of formal negotiations be- tween Miss Elkins and the Duke has set the nobility agog.

Russian Troops to
 Scene of Massacre

Especial from United Press.)
 Tabriz, June 14.-A detachment of Russian troops with machine guns left here today for Curomiah and the territory east of Uramiah where the Shakesefen tribes are massacring the people General Snarsky, in command of the Russian troops, has telegraph ed that achievements be sent to the Caucasus. Alfeady 5000 natives are reported to have been slain by the tribesmen in the last four days. The cause of the troubles is not stated but it is supposed to be one of the periodical rampages of the Shakese- fen tribesmen-
 General Snarsky was not able to send as large a force to Uramiah as it is feared is needed owing to the expected trouble with the Turkish troops who are threatening the Rus sians.
