VIENNA, February Prussia has

tions that the mysterious "SchultZe," >"
who figured in the plot, was II high
official in the st. Petersburg Russian II

The French seem to think that
Schultze was employed by Prince
Ludwig Windisch Graetz to impart
technical knowledge to the foreman
who directed the printing of the coun-
terfeit francs. Schultze disappeared
from Budapest before the plot was
discovered
Publication of the attorney gener

missioner for Hungary. is interested
in learning details of incidents in the
postal savings institutions, where
transactions of Manager BarosS are
suspected. although generally the
franc affair is thought not to have
seriously affected the leagues action.
Col. Jankovich Is believed to have
been sent to Paris by Wlndisch
Graetz to study methods of passing
the counterfeit notes. He Is said to
have brought back the news that the
Bank of France delivered it's notes
in peculiar blue envelopes marked

Still Much Confusion.
The French are keenly interest ed
in the origin of the paper and ma
chinery used by the counterfeiters
1t now is believed that Prince
Windisch GraetZ paid 400 900 900
kronen for a German paper patent
