n Charge of Proceedings
Against Estate of Late
King Leopold.
BY Ia MARouIsE DE EoNrENoY.

IT HAT Raymond Poincare, the
new President of the French re-
Public. was until the other day
the principal legal adviser in tFrance
of Countess Lonyay. Princess Stephanie
Of Belgium, and widow of Crown prince
rudolf Of Austria. In her proceedings
against the estate of ner falher, the
late King Leopold. and against the Bel
Sian government, for the sha,c OF his
property to which she is entitled, Is
not generally known; and the tact that
SO eminent lawyer should have con-
scented to champion her cause 'c cal
,la:ed to endow it with a degree of
Importance in the eyes of the general
public which II might not otherwise
possess. True, when he became Prime
Minister last year he turned over to
his friend Viviani, one of the leaders
cf the French bar. Slc active conduct
of the case. But he continued to re-
main as the countess's adviser and Is
thoroughly imbued with the il t:ce OF
her demands.
President Poincare, by the by. has
n gifted the batonier, or chief oe the
Parts bar, that he wishes his namc to
be continued on the roster of the latter
throughout his term of office as Presi-
dent a message which has given much
satisfaction among the legal frater-
nifty. 1t is an innovation and not in
accordance with precedent For when
Jules Grevy became chief magistrate
lof the republic he declared thai II was
impossible for him to retain. as Presi-
dent his membership of the bar: first
because 1t was not fitting that he, as
the head of the nation. should he sub
ject to the Council OF Discipline OF the
profession: and secondly, because as
long as he lived in the presidential
Palace of the Elysee, which is furnish
ed and maintained by the state, he
could not obey the strict rules which
require that members of the Paris bar
shall live dams ses moubles. that is
10 say, among his own furniture. This
is TO prevent them from living in fur
nished apartments in furnished iodg-
ings or in hotels. the idea being to in
sure their being men OF ubstauce and
responsibility.
President Poincarc does not con-
slider either OF these rules applicable
TO his case or that they can he con-
strued in such n fashion as to prevent
his remaining n member of tie Paris

It is the first occasion Of member
OF the French Academy becoming Presi-
dent of France, Just In the same way
as he has hitherto been the second
French Premier to be 4 member of that
body. the first having been the late
Due de Brogle. who was Prime Min
lister in 1873. Poincare declares that.

Conviots ParOled
On First Sentence
Not Freed on All

Felony cOnvicts sentenced TO serve
consecutive terms for different felo-
MES may be paroled before the ex-
piration OF their first sentence, but
must return to the penitentiary and
serve the second, according to Attor-
ney General Thomas s. Fielder, in an
opinion on the parole law of 1908,
Two other questions bearing on the
parole law were answered by the At
torney General IN his opinion. They
are whether misdemsanor convicts
can reap the benefits Of the parole
law, and whether felony convlcts, SEN
fenced as for misdemeanors, can be
paroled. Both were answered in the
negative.
The opinion OF the Attorney Gen
eral sustains the previous actions OF
Governor Brown and the prison board,
who have held that the law OF 1905
does not apply to misdemeanor con-
victs. Because Of the large number
of applications for parole by mlsde-
meanor convicts 1t was thought best
to get an official ruling.
