FAMILY DIFFERENCES
OF THE TOLSTO|S
GREW OUT OF COUNTS REFUSAL
TO SECURE COPYRIGHTS.
Sick Authors Condition Believed to Be
improving Somewhat.

Tula, Nov. l5.-Tolstoi is suffering of
bronchitis, and owing to a high fever is
in an extremely weak condition.
A message from his daughter Alex
| andria, who Is nursing him, giving this
information, adds that the physicians
say there is no immediate danger
threatened. Tolstoi suffered a severe
attack of bronchitis during the winter
of 1909. His present illness is the re-
suit of his susceptibility to the disease
when exposed to a long journey through
cold and rain.
The home of the stationmaster at
Astapova is quite comfortable, and the
patient is receiving skilful attention at
the hands of Makovetskv and another
physician in addition to the care of his
daughter Countess Tolstoi, after the
| first shock caused by her husbands
abandonment OF his home and family,
displayed astonishing energy this
morning and insisted upon being taken
to the count. Accompanied by her two
sons and Count vladimir Tchertkoff,
who formerly was Tolstoi's representa-
tive in England, she proceeded to Asia
pova by special train.
The illness of the author has brought
about a reconciliation between the
countess and Tehertkoff, whose embit-
tered feelings in recent months caused
Tolstoi much anguish.
The difference between the countess
and Tchertkoff, came about over Toll
stoi's literary legacy. Tchertkoff had
collected large quantity of unpub-
lished material, copies of Hadji Murat,
| TOlstors later work, as we'll as various
documents which he had been forward
ing for safe keeping to London. These
he intended to offer for free publica-
ton pursuant to the authors wish. The
Countess Tolstoi, in behalf of the fami-
~ has been insisting that Tolstoi Sc
cure a copyright for all his publications,
the return from which would serve aid
the very numerous family instead of
filling the pockets of the publishers.
Three months ago, when the admin
istrative order expelling Tchertkoff
from Tula province was repealed, he
visited Yasnaya Poliana, but left
hurriedly as the countess had per-
emptorily forbidden him access to the
grounds. Tolstoi 'thereupon visited

Murphy tore strip off his blanket
which he twisted into a rope to serve

done after his cellmateS were asleep,

accidentally kicked one of his fellows,
arousing him. He called to a trusty

The chauffeur, unlike some others
who have recently ran people down

the fallen man who was not badly

Ballard lived. Having learned the
location of the victims home the
chauffeur took Ballard into his auto

in the night
When Ballard reached the light he
found that his vest was missing. to-

gone and his new Stetson hat was
nowhere to be seen. 1t was then that
Ballard remembered the number he
had seen while lying in the mud.
Having attired himself in clean
raiment. Ballard made his way to
the police station and told his story.
He was emphatic in asserting that
he knew the number of the automo-

out from headquarters with instruc-
lions to locate the mysterious and

the garage where the auto bearing
tag No. 22S is kept brought forth
the information that the machine had

OF the machine was easily able to
prove an alibi and at once the plot
began to thicken

there was a washout near Salome
