WAR HALTS ROMANCE
Princess Louise and Her Riding Mas
ter Effectively Separated

Budapest, Hungary. Dec. 27--The
love affair of Princess Louise OF Bel
g1um and her former riding master,
Count Won Matassich, a Hungarian n
subject and first lieutenant in the Aus
o-Hungarian cavalry, had an inter-
esting aftermath recently when the
count was ordered to leave Budapest
for political reasons" lie was order
ed to remove to his native town in
Croatia, but eleventh-hour intercession
by DIR. Visontai. the legal adviser OF
Princess Louise, influenced the police
to permit Matassieh to remain in the
capital under surveillance
Family Strove to Separate Them.
Back of the action lies the continued
endeavor of the family of the princess
to separate her from Matassich, who
eloped with her when she was the
wife of Prince Philip of Saxe-COburg
in 1896. Some time ago the family
suggested that the princess place her
self voluntarily under guardianship
but the princess has not yet consented
to this. She was not permitted to live
in either Vienna or Budapest, but tin
ally obtained permission to reside in
Munich, where she now is. 1t is con-
sidered unlikely that Count Matassich
will be given permission to go to
Munich, so that tor the duration of the
war, at least, the couple will be sep
arated.
S5 When She Met Him.
Princess Louise is the oldest daugh-
ter of the late King Leopold of Bel
GUM. In 1875 she married Prince
Philip of Saxe-Coburg, who was four
teen years her senior. when she was
II. She was 35 when she met Count
Matassich. who was employed as her
riding master, and soon their relations
became the scandal of Europe Short
ly after the elopement Count Matassich
was arrested, charged with forgery in
aiding Princess Louise to swindle
Vienna moneylenders by eashing notes
with the forged signature of Princess
Stephanie. He spent term in prison,
while the princess was confined for
several years in nitarium. from

JUDGE HILTON TO
PLEAD FOR MINERS
Notion to Quash the Mesaba
Range Strike Cases
Denver Attorney Goes to Virginia City,
Minn., to Defend Organizers Scar
lett, Schmidt, Treka

The opening gun in the big cases on
Mesaba range will be fired December
10 at Virginia, MINI, when Q. n. Hilton
OF Denver, famous labor attorney, goes
before Judge Fesler with a motion to
quash the indictments against Organic
ers Scarlet, Schmidt and Tresca.
The only evidence connecting the or
ganizers to the alleged crime is the
union cards illegally seized by the state
with the coats of the accused principals
at whose home the killing occurred and
from which their coats were taken with
out legal warrant.
The basis of argument on motion to
ouash will be this Illegal entry and
seizure In the preliminary hearing
Judge Fesler denied the same motion,
leaving it open however, for the present
argument. In his denial at that time
Judge Fesler ruled that as the coats, al
tho illegally seized, were not the prop
erty of the organizers, they could not
object to the evidence taken with them
However the distinctions between ec-
cessoc,es and principals are removed by
the laws OF Minnesota and Hilton con-
tends trst, as the organizers by law arc
c. nndictees with the principals. subject
to the same laws as the principals; they
have a common right of protest against
evidence illegally seized as they would
if the coats were their own.
Hilton also says, "If such a doctrine
OF connecting organizers and even plain
union members with a crime committed
by any other member at any distance, is
allowed to stand; no union man is safe
from conviction upon charges OF com
plicity in a deed with which he in fact
has not the slightest connection. Organ
lied capital can say to any worker,
Look here, if you join the union and
carry q card similar to one carried by
another person whU commits murder at
.uy p!ace. the law will hang you for It
and you risk your life at my Pleasure
when YOU Join any union
Despite the fact that the jury panel
consists largely OF Duluth business men
Mr Hilton appears optimistic as to the
outcome. Hilton reiterates his former
statement as to the Importance OF this
trial breaking down the Chicago Hay
market decision. which he says all emf
nent lawyers acknowledge as Infamous
ana a disgrace TO the jurisdiction that
gave it birth. An appeal on an adverse
verdict will permit chance to shatter
this outrageous precedent forever, while
an acquittal at trial will be magnifi'
cent step toward making the Haymarket
| decision a dead-letter.

VETERAN MOTORMAN DIES
DAY SET FOR RETIREMENT
MAKING LAST TRIP TO CROWN HILL
WHEN HE FELL FROM SEAT.
Nathan Thomas Davis Wanted to Stick
1t Out Until Monday But Stroke of
Apoplexy Calls Him Ahead of Time.

Nathan Thomas Davis, veteran Crown
Hill line motorman, last mayor OF High
lands. and Denver pioneer, was due for
retirement Monday. Recently, however,
the company, realizing that infirmity
had overtaken their aged employe and
that time had withered his hands, told
him he could lay off whenever he chose.
But the old man insisted his conception
OF faithful service obliged him to stick
it out till Monday
Sunday he started his car from the
Sheridan boulevard terminus toward
Crown Hill cemetery. 1t was his last
trip. His grip on the controller relaxed
and he fell dead from his seat, singu-
larly enough. as the car reached the
cemetery entrance. ApopleNy thwarteo
by less than twelve hours his determin-
alton to stick it out till Monday.
As last mayor of the old town of
Highlands, Davis was instrumental in
bringing about the annexation of that
hamlet to the city and county of Denver.
He was in the real estate business here
for many years and assisted in the es-
tablishment OF Crown Hill cemetery.
His only son, Vernon J. Davis, now Is
superintendent there.
His widow and two daughters. Mrs.
Cora Pickett and Mrs William Shirley.
with whom he lived at 3733 Eliot street,
survive. He was Is years old and had
lived in Denver nearly forty years.
