CROWN PRINCE SUED
FOR CRIMINAL LIBEL

BERLIN, Oct. 27.-Thc ex-crown
princes alleged love affair with one
of his stenographers, Hildcgaard Rap
pich. and the reported confinement of
the girls father in an insane asylum
when he threatened to make an end
of the affair, is likely to be barred
in the glaring spotlight of open court
procedure.
This was made likely today as the
result of charges of criminal libel filed
against the crown prince by MontaS
Morgen, a Berlin newspaper. The
penalty for criminal libel in Germany
is either a fine or imprisonment.
Following the first charges against
the former crown prince by Deputy
Mueller, in the Prussian diet, this
newspaper printed long story of its
own about the affair. Recently the
former crown prince declared that
all such stories were SANDER.
Montag Morgen now has declared
that it cannot permit to rest upon
it the charge of spreading SANDER.

CHICAGO, Oct. 27.-If Christ re-

WATCH TWO MEN
FOR SIGNS OF
MENTAL SICKNESS

7. NJ. Young, of Calipatria, n
prisoner at the county Jail, was TAX
en- to the county farm this morning
for observation, and may later be
given - hearing to determine wheth-
or or not he is insane.
Several months ago Young was in
an automobile accident, in which
several people were killed. He was
badly injured and was confined to
4 hospital for several weeks.
Upon his release he told highly
c0lorcd yarn, to the effect that the
fatal party had been set upon and
robbed by two men, who beat their
victims into insensibility and then
ran the loaded ear into the New
river in an attempt to hide the
crime. Investigation by the sheriff S
office proved the story TO be with
out foundation.
Two weeks ago loung was ar
rested at Calipatria on charge of
disturbing the peace and was sem
tcncod to Jail for 90 days on each
of two counts by Judge Myers.
Several days ago he began acting
strangely and is was believed best
to put him under observation.
lack Gunther, taken into custody
at Brawley yesterday, is also believ-
cd to be irresponsible mentally. He
was "raising Cain at Brawley,
according to Undcrsheriff Under
wood, who brought him to the Jail
from that city.
Gunther, who is employed as a
box maker, said he was hvpnoti2"d
at performance in Brawley about
six weeks hgo and maintains that
he has been troubled with hrs head
since.
