Hungarian to Give Americans
Opportunity to Sign Names
Beside Those of Royalty.
HE HAS A PRICE, THOUGH
Money to Go to International
Charity, Says Man Now on
Way Here-Hopes to
Get Carnegie.
w.. cable ~ Tho Tribune. ]

London. Nov 1O-America is about to
have introduced to il a new "Fads and
Farcies" scheme which will make
Colonel Mann look like an amateur.
Louis Barth. an Hungarian. who does
not speak English, sailed on the Cam
pania Yesterday. carrying strapped to
his person a book containing autographs
of half the kings and queens and more
than one thousand of the biggest names
in Europe. Barth will offer wealthy
Americans an opportunity, for a con-
sderation. TO inscribe their names in
the book beside those Of royalty, and
will az the same time expound a plan
TO have ten thousand facsimile copies
Of the book prepared. one TO so to each
. victim, and he viii say that the money
. he receives will go to international
charity.
' Barth spent eight years collecting
the signatures. He claims the work
cost nearly $4,000. The mystery is
how he got the autographs, among
them. that Of Emperor Franz Josef,
which. according to Barth, is the only
one In the possession Of a private col
hector while also there are those OF
Kaiser Wilhelm, King Edward. King
D George, Queen Mary, Pope Plus, the
kings Of Denmark. Greece and Ru-
mania. Carmen sylvia and practically all
. the members Of the English and CONT
mental royal families. Some Of the
biggest artists Of Europe are repre-
scented, not only with signatures, but
with full page drawings.
Among Americans Barth has Theo-
dore Roosevelt and J. Pierpont Morgan,
. who, he says. offered $4,000 for the
book. Recently he got in London c.
Birch Crisp for $1,000. Barth sleeps
p with the book in his bed. He says the
only time II has been out of his pos
session was one night when he lent it
70 Queen Alexandra overnight who
signed it after an examination Of it.
He carries a revolver TO protect the
book from attempted theft
The scheme of selling the opportunity
TO sign the book came TO light when
Barth while making inquiries If ii were
worth while to make the trip TO Amer
ica. fell out with his partner in London,
Andrew Carnegie is the particular
object of the inquiries of Barth. he
wanted TO know il he was likely TO
pay 100000 for the privilege of sign
d, ing his name beside royalty After
ward he decided to reduce the price
10 $4,000, according to his partner
whose business was TO secure letters
Of introduction and receive % per cent
OF the proceeds. Barth got $1,000 from
one OF the Rothschilds. But he struck
snag in Sir Joseph Lyons, the big
restaurateur, who after taking up a
whole page for his signature said ne
p would not pay until he received the
book. Sir William Treloar, ex-Lord
r Mayor Of London, signed while sitting
on the bench at Old Bailey but re-
fused to pay a penny. However, he
allowed Barth to sit on the bench be-
side him while he heard the case.
