Prison, During Hearing

Magistrate Levine in West Side
Court yesterday held "Princess" Cath
crime Radziwill, of Russia, who is said
to be of royal descent. in $1,000 bail
for trial in Special Sessions on a
charge of violating the hotel act. 1t is
alleged that the princess" evaded the
payment Of bill Of $l,239.87 at the
Hotei Embassy.
Assistant District Attorney Gibbs
told the court tha the defendant had
"an unenviable criminal record" and
that "she served eighteen months in
the South Africa House of Detention
for swindling Cecil Rhodes on for-
gerry of 100000, and if the princess
will take the stand ! will prove my as
sertions."
The princess" later denied Mr..
Gibbs's accusations.
Upon her arrival in this country in
1917 princess" Radziwill was allowed
to enter after she had been held for
twenty-four hours at Ellis Island
while board of special inquiry looked
into certain information" which had
caused her detention. She came at
that time to lecture on Russia for the
benefit of Allied prisoners in Germany,
it was said
She then insisted the belief that she
was the former friend of Cecil Rhodes
was due to mistaken identity. Last
October she was arrested on complaint
of the Hotel Shelburne, Coney Island
The hotel alleged that she owed 1852 so
for board and lodging.

Police Search Far and Near for
Lost Lads, but Not Near Enough

When William Mazauski, thirteen
years old, and his twelve yenr-old
brother, Anthony, were reported miss
ing to the Missing Persons Bureau,
the bureau was urged by an anxious
father and mother to search for the
boys near and far. The bureau prom
ised that it would. And it did.
1t combed the borough Of Queens in
which the boys lived. it searched tho
distant corners Of the Bronx, pene-
trated dismal stretches of Long Island
Sound marsh grass, kept close watch
on the edge of creeks and rivers and
considered all out-of- -the-way haunts
where the boys might have been car
ried by kidnapping folk seeking ran
som.
The bureau searched far and near
but not quite near enough. 1t looked
under everything and over everything,
but 1t failed to look into big weather
beaten barn, which stands twenty-five
feet to the rear of the Mazauski home,
at 220 Brown Avenue, Jamaica. 1t was
to this barn that William and Anthony
went when they decided to get Cost
and it was in this barn that they hid
themselves during the six nights that
they were missing"
Just what happened during their ten

ancy Of the barn was revealed yestcr-
day when William and Anthony were
brought before Justice Collins in the
Jamaica Children's Court. They de-
cided to get "lost." they said after
they had absented themselves from
school for ten days and feared punish
ment The barn was decided upon as
a hiding place, and plnymates in the
neighborhood with whom the plan had
been discussed gave it their unanimous
approval
After the first night in the barn--a
cold, windy night it was-William and
Anthony told their young friends that
If they were to continue "missing
ther'd have to have blankets and food
Both were brought to them and every
night playmates of William and An
thony would creep warily into the barn
and have a great time laughing about
the fun they were having with Mr.. and
Mrs. Mazauski, with the Missing Per
sons Bureau and the Queens Chill
dren's Society.
But on the sixth day they laughed
too loud. 1t reached to the ears of Mr..
Mazauski and brought him to the barn
on the run. Upon his entrance there
was another roar, but of different
kind The Jamaica police have known
the whereabouts of William and An
thony ever since

have any knowledge, there were no
false statements made, neither were
there any false vouchers presented to
the Fleet Corporation by the Virginia
Shipbuilding Company.
The only definite charge made was
on July 16, 1919, statement made by
the Virginia cosooration through its
oiacers. c. l.. Livingstone, its presi-
dent; Mr.. Martin, its treasurer; Mr..
Christy, Its auditor and its counsel,
Messrs. Gibboney, Scott and Gordon,
to the full Shipping Board and Emer-
gehcy fleet Corporation, and at which
my son, E. A. Morse, and myself were
present. This statement have no hes
itancy in saying was undoubtedly true. y
Lusk May Defend Him
investigators of the Morse case we're
not prepared to-day to say when the
evidence would be presented to the
grand jury. 1t is known, however,
that Fletcher Dobyns, Special Assistant
Dlstrlct Attorney, is prepared to CO.
operate fully with District Attorney
Gordon when the grand jury is ready
to consider the evidence.
When the Morse case actually comes
TO trial the New York promoter is ex
pected to have an array of legal talent
TO defend him. Thus far Wilton ].
Lambert, of Washington, has been his
only attorney in this case.
In the civil actions brought by Morse.
however, Senator Clayton r. Lusk, ma
lority leader of the New York State
Senate, has been an active figure. Fol-
lowing Mr.. Lusk's retirement from the
Lockwood Investigating committee, af-
ter the disclosure that he had been pre-
sented with a costly silver service by
the New York detectives, he came to
Washington and appeared in Morse's
behalf before the Shipping Board
claims department. Mr.. Lusk was here
this summer and had interviews with
officers of the legal and claims depart
ments of the board in pressing Morse's
claims for upward Of $4,000 against

Germany Facing Important
Developments, Chancel-

By Joseph Shaplen
Special Wireless to The Trtbumc

SpecfdI WtreIesS to the Irt0nhe
BERLIN, Dec. 49, With the return
Of DR.. Walter Rathenau to Berlin and
his report of his London negotiations
to Chancellor Wirth and the Cabinet,
Germany is looking forward to inn
portant developments in the inter
national and financial situation which
may in the course of the next few
weeks enable her to decide just where
she stands in the matter of repara-
tions.
That events Of extraordinary i'm
rortance on the surface Of Germany's q
relations with her erstwhile enemies
are to be expected soon were CLEANED
from the Chancellor's statement Sun
day to the Center party CONFERENCE in
Kocnigswlnter, at which more than
1000 delegates were present.
The Chancellor declared Germany
is facing developments of the utmost
Importance in the immediate future"
and appealed to the Center party for
support in the moves conten. plated by
the government.
Brings Terms for Moratorium
DR.. Rathenau, who returned to Ber-
lin Sunday night, made visit to the
Chancellor yesterday morning after
which he presented his report to IL
meeting of the entire Cabinet. DR..
Rathenau will appear before the Ma
tional Economic Council at once to
explain the results of his conyersa-
tions in London.
While DR.. Rathenau's report is held
in the strictest confidence, it was
learned authoritotively that he has
brought back definite proposal from
the British and French embodying the
willing to grant moratorium.
Government officials were silent on
whether Germany actually made an
official request to the Allies for a
moratorium, but in we'll informed
Social Democratic circles it was de-
clared that such a request already had
gone forth, including The declaration
that Germany was unable to make her
January and February payments.
Financial Situation More Chaotic
There is no confirmation of this
news obtainable in government Offices.
While the likelihood Of Germany OBJ
tanning moratorium or relief on some
other form in meeting her obligations
to the Allies appears to be strong, it
has not for "a moment exerted a par
ticularly salutary effect on the Ger
man financial situation. With the
mark climbing from 800 to 163 in the
short space of ten days, the financial
situation has grown more chaotic and
confused than ever.
The recent bank failures have badly
shattered the public's confidence. The
banks in southern. and western Ger
many particularly are understood to be
in the most difficult situation because
of the heavy losses they have incurred
have incurred heavy corresponding
losses in stocks and securities.

tiations with the representatives OF

LONDON, Dec. 13.-Slr Edgar Speyer,
who until 1914 was partner in the
financial house of Speyer Bros, Lon
don, and of l.. Speyer Ellissen, Frank
fort, has been deprived of his British
naturalization and struck from the
British privy council roll, owing to the
finding Of the committee OF inquiry
that he associated with the enemy dur
ing the war
The official statement made public
in "The Official Gazette" tonight de-
clares that Sir Edgar is disaffectad to
the King by speech and act and know
ingiy entered into business relations
favoring Germany. The note adds that
no reflection is cast upon the Speyer
firm in the finding against Sir Edgar.
The naturalization papers of his wife
and three children also are revoked
and his name removed from the privy
council roll as soon as the finding is
declared.
Speyer, who became a partner of his
father, Gustavus Speyer, in the latter's
three financial houses, was a resident
partner of the Frankfort firm until
don institution. He was naturalized
as a British subject in 1892, and Gre
ated a baron in 1906. He served on
the company law amendment committee
and is interested in art and music,
having been one of the founders of the
Whitechapel art gallery.
London advices recently have report
ed that the case of Sir Edgar Speyer
had been under investigation by the
judicial committee organized by the
government to consider naturalization
certificates. Sir Edgar has been in the
New York City. He was born here in
1862.
Sir Edgar had his title to the Privy
Councillorship challenged in 1915, but
after hearing ruling was handed
down by the courts that he was entitled
to remain on the Councils roll

ate Abuse of Nntion's Chief
What do you think of a man who
deliberately says the Prasidtlt Of
the United States is the biggest
devil ON earth or is a thief, a
robber and a liar? A case was
tried in the Circuit Court last week
in witch a man sought to recover
damages from another who knocked
or SLAPPED him down when he used
such language about the President.
There were other facts in the case,
which no doubt enabled the jury to
aOriye at just verdict in favor of
the defendant; but the point we wish
to make is that true American
citizen will make no such remarks
about the Chief Executive of the
Nation, no matter whether he be
Democrat or Republican, and man
is not a bad citizen who resents such
attacts If man has no respect
for himself, he should respect the
head of the Government or move out.
We have no respect for any manwho
would make any such remark about
President Harding or any other man
while holding the office of President.
Let it be understood that if man
wants the respect of his feilowman
in this country he must respect the
President Of the United States.
