"COUNT" DEFENDS
SWINDLING Charge
D'Aulby de Gatigny Denies He
Represented Pictures as
Genuine

TOURS. France, Dec. 20.-The trial of
the self-styled count and countess"
de Gatigny, charged with having
swindled the duchess de Choiseul out
of 100000 in the sale of spurious
paintings. opened before Judge Roberts
in the correctional court today
The complainant was the widow of
Charles Hamilton Paine of Boston, who
recently married the duke de Choiseul,
whose mother was Mary Forbes, daugh-
ter of Malcolm Forbes of Boston,
The two had lived luxuriously in the
Chateau de la Tour. Many journalists
were present in anticipation of absorb
ing developments in connection with
the fantastic career of the son of an
English tailor, who posed successfully
as Prince Borgletto. Prince Luzignan
and Count d'Aulby de Gatigny.
De Gatigny was subjected to severe
cross examination concerning his va
rious titles and an alleged newspaper
campaign carried on by him in America
in connection with the ownership of old
pictures.
The defendant declared the object OF
his life was to build up a reputation
as a musical composer. He said he
was the close friend of Prince Phillip
of Bourbon, who wanted to adopt him
He maintained he had sold pictures
furniture and wine to Mrs. Paine al
her insistence, and had never guaran-
teed the authenticity of the pictures.
She invaded his house, he said, and
eventually their relations became very
friendly. They were broken off, how
ever, for personal reasons.
The defense scored a point in it's at
tempt to prove that De Gatigny was a
reputable artist, pointing out that a
Paris newspaper gave musical con-
sisting of De Gatigny's works.

OAKLAND WANTS A
CENTRAL station
Chamber of Commerce Will Take
Steps to Secure Depot in
Heart of City

OAKLAND, Dec. 20.-The executive
committee of the chamber of commerce
took the initial steps at meeting this
morning to work for central station
in the heart of Oakland from which
the Southern Pacific local trains, the
Santa Fe trains and the Oakland trac-
tion company cars will radiate. Secre-
tary A. A. Denison made the suggestion
and showed the advantages to the city
of such a union station.
While no committee was appointed
the members of the chamber spoke in
favor of the plan. AT a recent meeting
a communication was sent to the city
council protesting against franchise
being granted to the Oakland and An
tioch railroad unless the depot were
built within FIVE blocks of the city hall.
The site favored is at Fourteenth and
Franklin streets, where the Southern
Pacific Webster street road station is
now located.
In discussing the project today Sec
retary Denison said:
Such a building would have a ten
dency to centralize the passenger busi-
ness of the city, because with electric
roads of the Southern Pacific as well
as the Oakland traction company pass
ing this block there would be electric
connections with every main line depot
of the Southern Pacific, Western Pa
cific and Santa Fe in Oakland. 1t would
be possible for people to go to this
central point and take car to any
part of Oakland.
The erection of such a building
would be splendid investment for
these lines and a great convenience to
travellers. 1t would also remove the
uncertainty which has existed in this
section of the city and tend to develop
the frontage in the surrounding streets
symmetrically. 1t would tend to create
a compact central shopping district and
undoubtedly would contribute tremen-
dously to building up the local trade"
