July 25.--An inquiry into ithe mental capacity and condition of the Marquis Townshend will be opened before Justice Bucknill and a jury in the Old Hall, Lincoln's Inn, on Tues- day, 'July 24th, London, Sir Edward Clarke, K.C., has been retained to represent the Marquis Townshend, and Montagu Lush, K.C., and Charles Mathews will appear on behalf of the offigial solicitor. Late in Fébruary the statement was published that the Marquis of Town- shend, who is thirty-nine years of age, and. who in August, 1905, married Glalyss SAAT] hotighter of Thom- as BSutherst, a rrister, was being restrained of his liberty by his wife and hen father on the ground that he was of unsound mind. The dowager Marchioness of Townshend asserted that her son was not insane, and en- tered a a strenuous effort to secure his freedom. Medical specialists engaged by her re- ported that, edthough ill; the mar- quis had displayed no hallacinations oridelusions, hut that his voice . and manners 'point to some arrest of de- velopment." The Sutherst family asserted that the marquis was perfectly rational, ex- cept with regard to a friend whom he had known for sixteen years, and who, the marquis said, had helped to save his estate from attacks from other uarters. This friend was once: a clergyman. : The Suthersts asserted that the marquis was master in his own house. A reporter who was admitted to Mr. Sutherst's house saw the marquis, who said he intended to remain in his wife's care. The Townshend case has attracted wide attention. The marquis some months ago suddenly disappeared from his habitual resorts and his friends were greatly mystified regarding his whereabouts, Then it became known that he had been certified as insane by the lupaey commissioners, and had been. placed' undér the control of his wife, Who, it was charged, by some persons, was keeping' him virtually 'a prisoner in his 'West End home. The certificate of insanity was grant- ed at the instance of Mr. Sutherst, the wife's father, who was supported by certain members of the marquis' fa- mily. The marquis went to the United States in the early part of 1902, ac- companied hy the Rev. Geoffrey Rob- ins, a rector of the sixteen parishes which the marquis controls. They were registered at the Holland House, New York, and about two weeks after their arrival an advertisement appeared in one of the New York papers, which read as follows : "An American lady may take her seat as: a marchioness in Westminster Abbey during the coronation. Prelim- mary negotiations in confidence." Hundreds of replies were received. The marouis and the clergymen then in Washi regard the ea; happened. Immediately after his return to this country he fell in love with a comely widow and courted her assiduously So ardent was his suit that. she final- ly .accented him. and then the mar qui following the natural bent of the a noblemen of his class, demanded marriage settlement as the nrice of "Aho bestowal of his Buide, "he demurred and Townshend caus- ed 'an investigation to be beoun to as . how much of a for- .

NOBLES ARE RUINED As Much As $250,000 Changes Hands Each Night at Fach- ionable Clubr--Prince is In- volved. . Munich, . July 28.--A great society scandal at Munich is causing intense excitoment in Bavarian society. One royal prince, two dukes, about twen- ty counts and many lesser members of the nobility are iivol¥ed in the scan- dal, which has overwhelmed many loading Bavarian families with grief and shame. The root of the whole evil appears to be a fashionable club at Munich, which is nothing less than a gambling resort of the worst type. Night after night gambling proceeds here 'to a reckless extent, and enormous sams are won and lost daily between the hours of midnight and six in the morning. Heavy losses have ruined many pro- mising voune officers of the Bavarian army, us well as numerous young no- blemen and members of the eivil ser- vice, > Some of them, unable to face the disgrace of not paying debts incurred at the card tables, resorted to. all sorts of swindles to secure sufficient funds to enable them to continue at: ta tendance at the club. 5 Others committed suicide to escape] } the consequences of their folly The suicides include Count Max Preysine, who was unable to pay gambling debts exceeding $500,000, Prince Francis Joseph of Bavaria is implicated in the scandal, owing to n g n She fae that 8 nue of officers The interesting, point at issue 'is ge hia TA re id A pro sauey whather the comunittee of privileges notes, Where ny Joy Lula Orge | Cll find that the ancient carldom of sums of money by fraud.

Dancer London, July 28.-Before the West minster magistrate yesterday, Rita | Beaumont Moward, a well dressed young worban, who said she was an actress, and + had been living at Claverton street, Pimlico, was char ged with 'threatening to commit sui cide. Up to a few was engaged as a theatrical company months ago the girl dancer with a in Glasgow, and on this occupation terminating she came to London She had been unable to $ecure an- other engagement, and from the evi denée of Miss Dixon, a young woman friend, it appears this had distressed her sa much that. she threatened to take her life. The woman told Miss Dixon that if she did not meet her at a certain hour in Pimlico on Wednesday even ing, she would have put an end to all her troubles by committing sui cide. Her friend waited nearly half an hour, and then spoke to a police constable. Shortly afterward they saw prisoner carrying her box. She said that she had been turned out of her lodgings, and that her intention was to leave her box and belongings at Miss Dixon's place, and then carry out her threat Mr. Francis suid the best thing he could do at present would be to re mand the girl WHITE SLAVE TRAFFIC. Police Protection to the Dens of Infamy. Vienna, July 28.--The sensational revelations of the Tlustriertes Wiener Extrablatt regarding the corruption in the Viennese police are creating great interest. The story is almost in credible, but the newspaper declares that it is prepared to prove its state ments. The Extrablatt has made allegations regarding certain alleged dressmaking establishments and the terrible treat ment which white girl slaves have to undergo until they submit to every infamy. The mother who informed the Extra- blatt, and thus raised the outcry, was able to see her daughter; but only in the presence, of several other persons. In these circumstances the girl dared not complain; but a few days later she secured the services of a new ser vant, who gave a letter+to the mo- ther. The mother complained, but without avail, and the assertion is that the police protect such places. ROYAL BABE ON SHOW. Grandson of German Emperor Exhibited to Domestics. Berlin, July 28.--It i$ stated now that the kaiser will 'eelebrate the birth of his first grandson by granting an amnesty to prisoners on a liberal scale, Meanwhile the birth of a prospec- tive heir to the throne has been made the occasion of many marks of royal favor, The crown prince presented $2.60 to each of the Patedam Guard artillery- men; who participated in firing the the men who formed the guard at the IT] "SATURDAY, JULY 28, being waged over the earldom of Norfolk.

The main contention urged against that proposition on behalf of Lord Mowbray was that, whereas the limitations in the peerage of 1312,' like all the earlier peerages, were to the grantee and his heirs generally, the limitations in the peerage created in 1644 were to the grantee and the heirs male of his body. It is not alleged by Lord Mowbray that the rights and titles conferred by the grant of 1644, whatever they were, had not descended to the, Duke of Norfolk: nor did he say that he himself would have had any claim to the title of Earl 'of Norfolk, but of what happened in 1777, because down to that date the title was vest- ed in the Dukes of Norfolk for the time being, who, in either view of the true effect of the grant of 1044, were entitled to the title. But in 1777 that state of afairs end- ed.

Paris, July 28.-There is great ex- citement in Avignon. In digging the foundations for the new bride over the Rhone, they came across the skull of a horse which was evidently of vast size, and the local savants declare that the head was that of 'a prehistoric horse, which was the ancestor of equines which oofs. But, unfortunately for the pride. of Avignon, some unscientific people of the city declare that the skull is not in- any way prehistoric, and that it belonged to a big horse which was the property of a man living in that quarter. The horse, they say, died only eight years ago and was buried on the banks of the Rhone where the bridge builders found it. over this question, and party feeling runs high. So far, the only thing cer tain is that the horse must have been of unusual sise. -- WINNER OF BIG PRIZE. -- Fortune of $100,000 Was Without a Claimant.

He dyove at once to the police station, and returned 'with as many policemen as his cab would hold. The police arrived just as the men were forcing the house door, and the burglars immediately opened fire on them. The police returned the fire, kil'ing one of the robbers on the spot. The others fought desperately, ans a running fire of revolver shots was kept up for some minutes, Then the band escaped, leaving the dead man and a wounded comrade in the hands of the police, M.
