BERLIN, Oct. 30-Since the an

Hermine of Ruess, there are many
stories being told OF the early life
OF the Princess and members Of her
family.
The family of Ruess carries its his

ing Prince of his line. always held
the reputation of hating the house
Of Hohenzollern and all its works.
When Princess Hermine was four
years old her mother died. and the
child with her three sisters and a
brother were brought up in medieval
surroundings by their father. The
sisters are said to have been dressed

Dan Sutherland in a political address
made by the latter at the Palace The
alter Saturday evening. The Delegate
charged that the allegiance OF these
two officials to the Bipartisan money
interests in Ketchikan" was put ahead
of their consideration for an alleg-
lance to the administration of Presi-

The ire of the Delegate had been
aroused. apparently, over the ap-
pointnent by Judge Reed of Edward
G. Morrissey as u. S. Commissioners
at Ketchikan and he accused Mr..
Shoup of manipulating that appoint

that his reputation in Interior Alaska
was not such as would warrant any
official in appointing him to an office

found in her daughters hand was
not that owned by her daughter,
the latter's revolver being of a
different calibre.
That Mrs. Carleton attempted to
win the love and affection of Rev.

to do so shot him and then herself
is the opinion of Bishop Frederick
