AMERICAN COUNTESS
VERSUS AMERICAN DUCHESS

New York. Sept. 2l.-A judgment in
favor of Countess Victor Louise De-
brau for $44,492 was today filed in
the Supreme Court against Duchess
Elizabeth Pratt Disuet James. former
countess, who married the Duke Of
Mecklenhurg-S chwerin. a cousin of the
crown prince of Prussia. The Judg-
ment comes as the first victory in
the suit brought by the children of
the duchess for an accounting of the
estate of their father, the late Count
Amedee De Gasquet James.
Today's Judgment was obtained in
Ulster Superior Court. The count left
an estate amounting to about $500, 000.
Following the counts death in
France in 1904 his will was admitted
to probate and letters ancillary were
issued to his widow The estate IN
! France was left in it's entirety to the
widow, but the count wiiled that his
American belongings go to his chill
dren. He requested that his wife
turn over to an American trust COM
pany his Ulster County property
The interests of several of its cx1il-
dren were assigned to the Farmers
Loan and Trust Company and certain
sums We're paid by the countess in
the intervening years, but she failed
to file an accounting In that time
-Four years ago the countess be-
came the wife of the Duke of Mecklen-
burg -Schwerin. The marriage took
place In Dover. England. Following
the marriage the children became
more anxious for an accounting Of
their fathers American estate and be-
gan an action for an accounting.

AMERICAN DOCTORS
WANTED IN KOREA

Dr. X. NJ, Wilson. me well-known
medical missionary of the Southern
presbyterian Church, now at home on
fnriough at Columbus, Ark, says that
Korea offers unlimited opportunity for
young physicians and nurses.
DIR. Wilson SAYS In the Missionary
Voice:
This word Is to young doctors who
are standing upon the threshold of
their careers and who are lookina
about for the best sphere of service.

years of medical service In Korea. T

We have union medical school at
Seoul, Korea, and this past spring
there were thirteen medical graduates

old superstitious practitioners. 1t is
truly a privilege to have part in the
training OF these young men. I do not
hesitate to encourage my own broth
ers, one of whom is already under ap-
pointment to go back with me as a
preacher. and another whom l nope
will go as soon as he has completed
his medical education. which Is even
now In process.
1t la good to live for others, to live
and to work where one Is needed and
where one Is missed wsaen one Is gone.
and to try to help to correct the hor-

New York. Sept. 2s.---The stock

Saturday session. Indeed. trading
proceeded on the most active scale OF
the week and. despite liberal corr
version OF paper profits and fairiy
extensive shifting OF speculative posi-
tons from one quarter of the list 10
another. the strength OF the market
matched it's breadth and volume. Nd
vancing strength characterized the
railroad department and its mainte-
nance for the third successive day
stimulated a good deal OF aggressive

wanna was conspicuous and influential
in the movement which INCLUDED

seemed 50 show the effect of distrfhu-
ton more than OF mere traders profit
taking The close was strong and
practically at the highest level Of the
Day.
The weekly bank statement at
tracted attention because OF the fur
ther large expansion OF loans. the In
crease being about s57, 100000
Sterling exchange continued to hold
above the 40 level. thus rounding
out n week in which greater stability
has been displayed than since early
August. Naturally the fact lends IT.
self to the inference Of confidence in
banking circles that the loan negotia-
tors would contrive an understanding.
The rarnors of bitches and difficulties
which were so freely circulated in re-
ports OF discussions about the loan in
the first half of the week faded away
-tter the mid-week and the feeling in
ne financial district was today that
the announcement OF definite and sat
isfactory results of the negotiations
would not he long delayed.
