Washington. Oct. 19.-Census Direc-
tor Durand issued statement today
with reference to methods employed
by the census bureau in investigating

population returns, there having been
opinions expressed in some of the
western cities that the incredulity at
the enormous increase shown was the
only ground for investigation.
Director Durand outlined in detail
the systematic operation of special
force Of workers in the department,
constantly employed to detect fraud
in the enumeration.
"It is needless to say" says Direc-
tor Durand in his statement, that
the census bureau would not for

of this Office investigation. In every
case where such investigation indi-

other cases they found clear evidence

Director Durand, in referring to
Stacey M. Corwin, the special agent,

st. Louis. Oct. 19.-Seven Of tho
teen balloons which left here Monday
in the international race are believed
to be in the air in Canada. They
were last reported from northern
Michigan near Lake Huron. One of
them. the Dusseldorf IL, is making q
more northerly course than the 9TH

was made successfully by eight Of the
entrants. The balloon St Louis No.

cause of the lack of ballast to neeo-

With the Million Clug aerostat down,
the course of the United States-Win-

piloted by Allen R. Hawley. The
third balloon which is down is the
Condor. 1t, like the Million Club, did
not attempt to cross Lake Michigan
and landed in Wisconsin near Two
Rivers. The balloons which came to
earth yesterday have cambric gas
bags. The others have gas bags Of
rubber. The record made by the late

Cosmopolitan Editor Struck at Out.

+ Kansas City, Oct. 19-Without men,
tioning the name of Col. Theodore
Roosevelt, but making it obvious that
1t was he of whom he was speaking,
John Brisben Walker, former editor
of the Cosmopolitan magazine, last
night in an address here before the
Knife and Fork club made a sharp
attack on the ex-president.
Mr.. Walker pointed out that a re-
public was as enlightened as its av-
erage citizen. Such q citizen, he
said, failing to read and keep him
self informed upon public questions,
might easily be induced to follow the
lead Of q popular idol. Thus, said Mr..
Walker, the idol might become die

"Of course" said the speaker. "it
would not be an ordinary man who
could do this. 1t would require some
supreme demagogue. some quintes-
cense of fake, some one equipped with
an unblushing affrontery capable Of

cARuso's ACCIDENTS
Tilted Stenographer Threatens to Sue
Famous Tenor.

Rome, Oct. 19.-Enrico Caruso's ac-
cidents on the stage at Munich are
trivial affairs, compared to the latest
love troubles Of the tenor, which
have filled the newspapers for sever
al days, and which bid fair to- have
an airing in the courts.
While his troubles with Nine. Giac-
chetti are far from being over, his re-
ported intention of marrying a young
stenographer of Milan has caused his
friends to gasp.
The young woman's name has not
been made public, but inasmuch as q
breach OF promise suit Is threatened,
the name will sooner or later be re-
vealed. All we know now is that the
tenor met the young woman last sum-
mer, soon after his return from the
United States. With the tenor 1t was
a case of love at first sight, but the
girl. who is of serious turn Of mind,
informed the tenor's friends IL Signor
Caruso really loved her he must ask
her hand of her father.
1t seems that this time the tenor
was really in earnest, inasmuch as he
secured the old mans consent, and
the engagement was officially an
nounced to a limited number of trust
ed friends. According to the tenor's
plan, the wedding was to take place
next summer, after the metropolitan
season, by which time he would have
settled his troubles with Nine. Giac-
chetti
This action on the tenor's part con-
vinced the girl that he loved her, and
when he left to fill an engagement at
Berlin there was a promise that she
should join him there. The girl. es-
corted by her father. went to Berlin,
where an elaborate dinner was given
in her honor. Two hundred of the
tenor's friends were invited, and
many of them toasted to their future
happiness.
What next happened is quickly told.
For some time after her return to
Italy the girl kept up a correspond
ence with her fiance. but one day she
received letter that shattered every
thing. Caruso, after calling her the
most endearing names, informed her
that he would certainly make her un-
happy If he married her; that, any,
how, he could not marry her for sew
eral years, and that, inasmuch as he
did not want her to wait so long. he
gave her back her freedom. 1nclosed
in the letter were several thousand
francs.
The girls father at once put the
case in the hands of Lawyer Jarrac
of Milan, and a suit is to be started
soon. Meanwhile, the girl, who is of
the tall, powerfully built, BACKED
eyed, curly-haired, dark-complexioned
variety. has gone to Sicily to escape
the unwonted notoriety of her short
lived romance.

so much interest as Italy In the rec
ent events in Portugal and the down.
fall of the Braganza monarchy, which
is 30 closely related with the house Of
Savoy. As every one knows, the Dow
ager Queen Maria Pia. the grand
mother Of King Manuel, was the
daughter Of the great King Victor
Emmanuel, but few understand, espe-
cially persons abroad, by what aure-
ole Of romanticism and popularity she
is surrounded In her native land.
To begin with, sheawas born at q
time which, although only 60 years
ago, seems already ancient history to
us. It was in 1S47, and Plus TX had
only been pope one year, and was
arousing in Italy and abroad the en-
thusiasm Of all liberals, as he had put
himself at the head Of the revolution
ary movement in Italy, and had sent
his troops to fight Austria side by side
with the Piedmontese soldiers Of the
house of Savoy.
Victor Emmanuel II had not yet
conceived the idea Of being himself
one day the ruler Of united Italy, his
grandest ambition then being that Of
freeing Italy from all foreign domin-
ion, so when his daughter was born,
on October al6, he. asked the supreme
pontif toSbe her godfather. Tho pope
agreed with pleasure. wishing to add
q new link to the ties which should
unite the kingdom Of Sardinia to the
papacy, and he insisted that his own
name in the feminine form, Pia,
should be given to the child ~
Does this seem almost dream,
considering events later? The dream,
however, went further. Victor EN-
manuel was already king Of Italy
when, in 1862. she was not quite Is
years old, the same princess. fairy
like and gay, was married to King
Louis Of Portugal. After that time
she returned to Italy Whenever q
great event, rad or happy. united @her
family. =: -
In 1868 she came, for the marriage
OF her elder brother, the late King
Humbert, to the then Princess Marg-
herita, the two competing in fairness
and beauty: Ten years later, disre-
garding the papal prohibition Of Cath
olic sovereigns being the guests of the
Quirinal, she came again to nurse her
father in his dying moments. Her
last visit, she imagined, was the sad
dest event which could happen in her
life, as she came after the murder Of
her brother Humbert at Monza on
July 20. 1900.
However; only eight years later.
she was to see herself deprived Of
her son and grandson in still more
brutal manner, and now. she, togeth-
er with her husbands family, ts q
fugitive from the land of her adop-
tion.
Could one life hold more tragedy? :?
She, at least, has not been able to
endure SO much, and she is probably
not entirely aware Of the catastrophe
Of today, as her tortured brain has
broken under the strain. At present
Queen Maria Pia is q mental wreck,
but 1t is the hope that IL she should
come to reside permanently in Italy
the scenes OF her childhood, the peace
at her sisters establishment at Mon
calieri, near Turin, and the affection
with which she will be surrounded
may restore her to q future lease Of,
at least, tranquil and conscious life.
