Prince Eitel-Fritz.
4 CabIr 10 The Wa.hinstnn Hrra'i.

Special CabLc to The Washington Herald.
Paris. Jan. Sl.-The announcement OF
December D that Princess Sophia, wife
OF Prince Eitel Frederick. second son OF
the German Emperor. had run away from
her husband is now confirmed.
The princess fed to Paris after she had
discovered conclusive proof that her hus-
band had formed an undesirable friend
ship with a dissipated Young nobleman.
The Kaiser. who was terribly shocked
at the discovery. fearing denouement
which would put the Gutenberg affair
completely in the shade. dispatched his
brother. Prince Henry of Prussia. and
the erring husband to Paris to fetch back
the incensed wife by force II Necessary.
The two princes stopped at the quiet
and unpretentious Hotel Louvois. which
faces the Bibliotheque National, in the
Rue de Richeleu. while the princess re-
manned bolted and barred up in the Hotel
Mirabeau. Prince Henry. however. was
recognized by compatriots who indulged
in patriotic demonstrations. with the re-
suit that in the middle of the night his
royal highness was obliged to flee to the
Hotel Continental.
After repeated efforts to persuade the
indignant princess to listen to argument,
the kaiser's brother induced her to re-
tuEp to Berlin. which she did. only on
the condition that while outwardly re-
conciled she should not be asked to speak
to or live with her young husband.

RENT HOUSES FROM ROYALTY.
Americans in Paris Occupy Sump.
tuous Apartments.

Special Gable to The Washington Herald.
Paris, Jan. 31.-Princess Colloredo
Mansfield is endeavoring to satisfy the
demand of wealthy Americans in Paris
for sumptuous apartments.
She has almost completed, at the esti-
mated cost of sl,ooo, 600. a palatial white
marble building near the Bois de Bou-
logne which already has been named
THE Millionaire's Apartment House.
and she is now considering plans for a
similar palace OF the Avenue Henri Mar
tin. where many Americans live now
adays.
The princess plan is to attract as ten
ants such Americans as Alfred Wander
bilt, Anthony ]. Drexel. Col. Millard
Hunsiker, and Moncure Robinson, who
are in the habit of spending several
months each year in Paris, staying at
hotels where the privacy of a real home
is not purchasable, even at the highest
prices.
when Americans should have their regu-
lar ''pieds a terre" in Paris, like French
noblemen, who own country castles where
where they can put up for a few weeks
or months away from the distracting ele-
ments of hotel life.
Rents in the princess building are dear
er than any other apartment house in
Paris, something being added for the
privilege of paying rent to a titled land
lady. She has borrowed many American
ideas in constructing the house which
largely is Of her own design.

JAPAN MAY name ship
SUBSIDY COMMISSION
Imperial Government Urged to Ap-
- point Men to Determine Which
Lines Shall Be Supported.
CONTRACTS WILL EXPIRE SOON

Special Cabl. to The Washington Herald.
Tokyo, Jan. 3l.-The Japanese govern
ment is being urged to appoint "a COM
mission to determine what steamship
lines using the European. North and
South American and Australian routes
shall be subsidized. The contracts which
have existed between the imperial gov
ernment and the leading steamship lines.
expire shortly, and the question of the
renewal of the contracts or the issuance
of contracts to new companies has be-
come a political measure. second in i'm
portance only to the proposed measure
for the increase of the army.
y Six lines now enjoying the help of the
government were selected in 1903, and are
the same as those on which the Nippon
Yusen Kaisha, the Togo Kisen Kaisha,
and the Osaka Shosen Kaisha had been
engaged up to that time. 1t is urged that
the new subsidy system is only disguise
Of the old navigation encouragement sys-
tenn. and its trainers could not fix any
uniform amount to be paid to each line.
As a result, the subsidies differ greatly
in amouat according to the size and speed
of the vessels. The subsidies paid to the
routes that give promise of being MAIN
tanned without State aid will be en-
tirely abolished State aid, pecuniary or
otherwise is given only to those under
takings that give promise of becoming
independent in the future, and also of
gradually expanding. According to the
law authorizing the subsidies, what State
protection aims at is the ultimate in
dependence, rather than the dependence
of the enterprises so benefited. Curiously
enough, however, the official protection
of the Japanese marine service has con-
tinued without a break. notwithstanding
its gradual growth, until it now exceeds
s65. .OOO. 900 annually.
