The TESTING of Julia Grant
In Which Dan Carson's Feeling for The Other Woman
Is Explained

thought of putting her hand into a
flame.
When Dan announced to Julia that
he no longer loved her and that he
wanted to be free, there had been
great deal of love making between him
self and Nancy. Nancy was only nine
teen and Dan was twenty seven. He
was older than most of the boys who
took her around. and she thought no
more of being serious with him than
she did with any of the others. Nancy
liked to play with fire without burning
her small white fingers.
The night before Julia's scene with
Dan, Dan called on Nancy and had
stirred her little. She felt something
different in the way he held her. and
his kisses frightened her. Finally she
pulled away from him.
Dan, don't kiss me, you mustn't. y
She protested.
"Why not?" he had asked hoarscly.
Nancy smiled and hung her head pref E
tily. Now that she was away from
him she did not feel so frightened. Be
sides she did not want to offend Dan.
She liked to go about with him.
"Why. why. isn't there some one
else, DAM? Of course, | know that
you've been just having a good time
with me. Some one told me that you
were engaged
Dan pulled her back in his arms
There was something about Nancy that
affected him as Julia never had. DO
you care for me?" he whispered against
her.
"why. yes, I do like you. Dan,
you know | do" said Nancy. pulling
away from him.
He let her go and stood regarding her.
"Who told you there was some one
else?" he asked finally.
Nancy sat down in a chair at a safe
distance from Dan and ruffled the pages
of book. II don't remember now.
but every one knows. There's no reason
why we shouldn't be friends. though. Is
there?" she asked with her throaty lit
tie laugh and that backward turn OF
the head that Dan had grown to love.
Dan looked thoughtful. He had beer
trying for n long time to tell julie
the truth about Nancy, and tonight hi
was fully determined to do so. H'
had been carried away by Nancy, moth

was sure that once rid of Julia, Name!
would give him her promise.
After this scene with Julia. Dan for

New-York tribune., 1919-09-14

mediately upon his promotion from a
circus wrestler to the Bolshevist dip
lomatic service Kalve changed both
his personal appearance and style of
living. From a dirty, unkempt creature
in ragged clothes he became an over
dressed young blood, with fingers COW
cred with costly rings, gold cigarette
case studded with diamonds and heavily
gold-mounted walking cane. He began
to patronize the Grand Hotel Royal,
giving expensive champagne lunches,
dinners and suppers and always ac-
companied by representatives. of the
demimonde. He was always escorted
by his lieutenant, Swede named Eng
strom (also reported murdcred).
when Vorovski returned. from his
visit to Berlin in the summer of 1918 a
strange thing happened. Kalv6, who
had been fanatical supporter Of the
Soviet system of government, suddenly
began openly to condemn Bolshevism
saying that now he had seen it from
the inside he was disillusioned; that
he had come to the conclusion that all
Bolsheviks were scoundrels, and that
he had resigned from the Bolshevist
service. His late colleagues of the
Bolshevist Legation gave another
version of the story. According to
them, Vorovski, on his return from
Germany, alleged that his two chief
lieutenants, Kalv6 and Zimmerman,
had in his absence helped themselves
to considerable sums of Swedish
crowns from the legation funds.
"a couple Of months later 1 learned
that Kalve had offered his services to
the Swedish police and was furnishing
very serious evidence on the secret &C.
tivities Of Vorovski and tho Bolshevist
organization in Sweden. The result of
this evidence was that the Swedish
government severed diplomatic rela-
tions with Bolshcvist Russia and in-
vited' Vorovski and his staff to leave
Sweden, which they did last February.
On applying for safe conduct for
himself and his staff Vorovsk insisted
on including HALVES name in the list
(although Kalv6 had resigned several
months before), and on being asked
why no was so anxious to get safe
conduct for Il man who had robbed him,
answered: 4 want to get that scoundrel
into Russia; then we can hang him.
But this Swedish authorities refused to

The First Shots

One of the first big shots was fired
by Count Botho Wedel, the former
German Ambassador at Vienna, who,
IN an article published in the Ham
burger Nachrichten, brought a
series Of grave charges against the
Vice-Prenier and Minister Of FL
nances, Matthias Erzberger. Count
Wedel's article dealt chiefly with
Erzberger's famous peace visit to
Vienna in 1917, and proceeded to
prove, first, that the enterprise of
the Centrist statesman had lacked
authorization; second, that by indis-
creetly communicating to the En-
tente Count Czernin's confidential
report about the desperate situation
OF Austria Erzberger wrecked the
prospects of a favorable peace.
Count Czernin's report, Count
Wedel alleges, which was forwarded
to the kaiser's Headquarters at
Homburg by Count Ledochows
was intended "to shatter the Ger
man governments confidence in a
favorable outcome and to induce
Germany to make a peace of conces-
sions, thereby acknowledging de-
feat" Count Wedel continues:
"On visit to Homburg the En-
peror Charles and Count Czernin sug
gested that Germany should return
