Head Of Olympic Committee Replies
to Criticism Alleging Raising
of Fund.

NEW YORK, Sept. 3.-The talk Of
raising a British Olympic fund in or
der to provide what is practically a
team of gladiators" for the next
Olympic games, has aroused Colonel
Robert NJ. Thompson, president of
the American Olympic committee, to
write to the Times" contradicting
the assumption that America has
done anything of this kind.
He declares that the American
Olympic committee did not eXpend
penny in preparing competitors for
any one previous to Olympic contests,
and does not propose to for the next
games.
After detailing the method by
which American athletes were select
ed for the last games, Colonel Thomp-
son said: ...
"UEtil the team was finally select
ed the Olympic committee had not
spent a penny upon the men. AS
soon as it was selected the commit
tee took charge, and with the sub

A RECORD BREAKING CROWD
GATHERS AT PARK TO
SEE EVENTS.

CLARKSBURG, W. Va, Sept. g.
The second day of the versatile show
put on by the Central West Virginia
Fair Association was wonderful
success, and the spectacular program
was witnessed by a record-breaking
crowd of enthusiasts that came into
this hustling little beehive of indus
try from all sections Of Harrison and
Its surrounding counties.
Everything was conducive for the
program arranged by. the manage
ment in anticipation of another big
crowd. Neither the latter nor the
management were disappointed, and
everything moved off without hitch
and with many exciting features.
The climax of this years fete is ex-
pected to-day and Thursday. At this
lime there will be the awarding Of
prizes in all the live stock competi-
lions, parade of these aristocrats
ON the race track before the heats,
and a continuation OF all the thrill
ers and exciting races that have been
entertaining the natives of the Noun
tain State for the past two days.
The racing was the feature Of the
programme, for the free-for-all pace
was the best contest ever programmed
here. There was also the 2:19 pac-
ing stake and the pure for 2:17 pac-
prs but they faded into insignificance
when the free-for-all took the track.

Tor the Bull Moose Progressive leaders such

Il is true that the primary election law provides
that two parties shall hold primaries the

when the Republicans and the National Progressives

came, for the time being, one party bent upon the

GOSSIP OF THE COURTS


The decision Of the French govern
ment to purchase the Forest of Eu
may be the best course to be pursued
under the circumstances but when all
is said it is a melancholy business at
best.
This Forest, adjoining the Chateau
d'Eu, where King Louis PHILIPPE (Ega-
lite) entertained Queen Victoria and
her Prince Consort Albert is situated
near lie Treport, Wis a Wis Dieppe. It
contains 22OOO acres and is without a
doubt the finest beech tree forest in all
France. II belonged to the French
Crown for more than seven centuries
and is full of historical associations
William the Conqueror married Ma
thilde Of Flanders in Eu church.
The Duke Of Orleans is the owner
Of the Eu estate Though married
these many years. he spends his
money as freely as any life-loving old
bachelor and has other calls upon his
purse besides those of his household
and Royalist Countess. AS a result of
few months ago he found himself
obliged to part with his magnificent
Forest of Eu. He let the Paris press
into the secret and got plenty of valu-
able free advertising. Among other
things It was rumored that the old
royal estate would be parcelled out
into building lots and sold at auction.
This, il was pointed out cunningly,
would amount to a national calam-
ity," which it was to the governments S
duty to prevent by taking over the
property.
The next report published was that
the estate had been purchased by a
syndicate of Royalist noblemen for ten
million francs, the names given being
those of the Countess de la Brosse, de
Juigne, and de Ia Ville-BOisnet Ga
I Breton landowner with annual rent
roll of a million francs) and Vicomtc
dMarcourt It was further asserted
that the syndicate was negotiating
with British capitalists for the sale of
all the timber that still remains on
the forest for all the fine old beech
trees were disposed of long ago to
furnish the wherewithals for the royal
spendthrift's needs.
All this had the anticipated effect
Of frightening the public and bringing
the reluctant government to terms
One of the last acts of the BRAND
cabinet was to table bill for the state
TO purchase Eu. No prices was men
toned but it was tacitly understood
that the syndicate would accept 49,
100000 francs.
The melancholy part of the business
is that France is going to pay biz
price for that which il should have
secured for nothing. The. estates of
the Orleans family were confscatcd by
Napoleon III as the result of an
opinion by a leading attorney Of

dent of the French Senate and rank
ing high as a commentator of the
French common law. This expert
aIgued that under the old French law,
confirmed by the decree of September
2t 1890. and followed by an act Of
November 8, 1914 all estates belong
ing to French sovereigns on their ac-
cession to the throne were to become
the property of the nation Not even
shrewd King Henry of Navarro was
able to shirk this law for his Bearn
estates any more than Louis XVIII
and Charles Y, who accepted and hon
ored it in the nineteenth century.
But when Louis Philippe was elect
ed King of the French August z,
1880, he bethough himself of a trick to
secure a crown and a civil list without
sacrificing his great private fortune.
On the day of his accession he made
over his estates-Eu being one Of them
to his children, but keeping his life
interest in them. This donation, ar
gued the leading lawyers, was null
and void. But after the war of 1870
and the downfall of Napoleon H. the
national assembly, whose members
were mostly rOyalists, cancelled the
decree "nisi" and the Orleans princes
were allowed to take possession of the
coniiscated estates. with the eXcep-
tion of those which had been sold in
the meantime by the imperial govern
ment, such as the Pare MOnceau in
Paris and the fine park at Neuilly.
This step, taken while France still
was bleeding from the wound inflicted
by the German armies, did more than
anything else TO make the House of
Orleans unpopular AS a matter OF
history, these princes. from Philippe
kgalite downward. have been notOri-
GUS as land and money grabbers.
Still, the assembly had not made

estates Far from it, II merely re-
scinded the decree of 1852. leaving
