(Continued from First Pagc)

tigation. Prince Carol. who is in the country, also has been notified.
 A domestic employed in thu house said that she had met a woman while shopping and invited her to dinner at Neuilly. The next thing she knew, the domestic told police, was that it was the next day and that she had headache. She found that the house had been en- tered by thieves who left money and jewels alone confning them selves strictly to papers.
 All but one letter was returned hy mail This lone letter had bce,, written by a Rumanian servant in which she described at length vis- tors who came to see Carol.
 Bucharest, Rumauia. Oct. 2S LP)- Warming to Prince Carol and his adherents that Rumania will not tolerate any conspiracy against the state was given by Premier Bratiano in an address before a crowded chamber of deputies last night.
 "Rumania does not want and will not have an elected head of the state" the premier declared in dis cussing Prince Carols recent state. ment that he would return to Bucharest 10 take his place as king if called by the nation.
 Peasants In Reply.
 The prcmier's exposition of the dynaStic situation and his defense of the mcasurcs taken by his govern mcnt during the past few days to thTart any attempt by Carol to ob- tain the throne met with q spirited reply from Julio Maniu, leader of the national peasants party who de- tended Prince Carol and challenged in" premier's course of action as be- ing contrary to the sovereignty Of Eumauia.
 Referring to the announced dis COVory of a plot to restore Carol to the throne now held by his siX-ycar- old son King Michael Premier Brat iano declared that the fate of the Eumanian crown could not be left to the caprice of any individual or party.
 Brand ManoilCScu Conspirator.
 Declaring that NJ. Manoilcscu. formcr under secretary for finances, had encouraged the prince to return to ltumania, the premier asserted that Mancilescu was thus engaged in 8 conspiracy against the state. This brought an oUthurst of an plausc from the prcmicr's supporters who increased their clamor of ap- proval when he added:
 Whoever assails the authority of the state iS an enemy of the nation and must face the full force Of the law. Let this b" known at home and abroad"
 Recalls Kings Words.
 The premier then went back to tho period just before the appoint mcnt Of the regency, declaring that the late King Ferdinand had made one last determined effort to induce Carol to ronounce his abJiCation of the throne, With that failing, Brat iano said with q voice of deep sol cmnity. the king on that occasion said to the assembled crown council with grave anguish and sorrow, the rotten branch of the dynastic tree must he removed so that the trunk may remain hcalthy'."
 Alcgc Arrest Illegal
 Replying 10 the premier Maniu declared that the arrest of Manoil- cscue was illegal and mconstitution- al. arguing that the judiciary alone and not the government possesses the right of arrest. He also pro tested against the confiscation Of letters addressed to Carol by party leaders.
 "Manoilcscu's arrest can only deepen ths impression aboard that tho situation in Eumania is un- stable" Naniu declared demanding the publication of the seized docu- mCnts which up to the present have been withheld from the public.
 The national peasants leader then said that Carol had made it clear repeatedly that he was not putting himself forward as a prctcnder or claimant 10 the throne, only eX- pressing readiness 10 return if the Rumanian people desired him. Turn ing to Premier Bratiano, Maniu said.
 Nation is Authority.
 You have established the dictum that what you have decided cannot be questioned by any one. We on the contrary insist that the nation is sovereign and can discuss any thing it plcascs.'
 "Yes,' rejoined Premier Batiano. While the nation is sovereign, il can only express it's will through constitutional channels. If this sys- tenn is not respected, it is the gov crnment's duty to make it respect il. In any case, We are discussing .. question out of which there can be no legal issue. The dynastic situa- ton is irrcvocably settled. To dis cuss that issue is to be either q revolutionary or a visionary
