EYES OF SAXONY ON CROWN PRINCE ! Rumor Soys Kleg Frederick i May Abdicate. i FEAR MOTHER'S INFLUENCE Comparative Poverty Htfe Sjitpt Di vorced Wife of flitter QuleAln Re cent Years, but People Are Worried That She Will Become Aetlve Again If Son Takee Throne. Pans. ? a rumor that King Frederick of Saxony wan considering the abdica tion of liia throne in favor of bis ion. Prince George, probably owes ita in spiration to the festivities arranged in Dresden for the young man's twenty tbtrd birthday anulversary on Jan. 15, coupled with the fact that for the past three yea fa, since he became twenty, he bus been gradually initiated Into state affairs, more and more taking his father's place in the reception of minor committees from the council of minis ters and parliament. This has been in accordance with the policy of state to take every precautionary measure poaslble to protect the heir to the 8ax- j on tliroue and the Saxon people from | the influence of- Prince George's moth- ! er. the notorious ex-Crown Princess < Louise, in the event of the sudden death of King Frederick and the ac cession of Prince Gatfrge.

Everything is being done to give him a full appreciation of bis duty aB king. Prince George has not seen his moth er for several years, since her bo called "memoirs" were published. She elop ed from the royal palace some years ago with his tutor. Glron. and was di vorced by King Frederick, being com pelled to renounce her title as crown princess, her husband conferrrlng upon her the title of Countess of Monti gnoso. The 'king took charge of the girl baby b??rn to Louise after her elopement, the child being christened ax the king's and given tlie-'name of Princess Anne Monique Pie. being In eluded in the royal family and kept away from the mother entirely. Louise's later escapade in marrying an Italian ' pianist. Toselll, the publicity of a divorce from him and a tight for the child born of this union, with the publication of her memoirs ridiculing her husband's family, had the effect of completely alienating King Frederick and hi* government from her. Com* punitive poverty has kept ber quiet In recent years. Prim-e George's marriage ha9 already received a good deal of attention by his father and the Dresden court, since It Is obviously wise to see him settled down early with a prudent wife, whose Influence would counteract any which Ills mother would attempt to exert. A few months Ik- fore the war It was said that Informal negotiations bad been opened with the csar for an alliance l>etween the heir to the Saxon throne and the Grand I)u<-hess Tatiana, the e*ar's second daughter, who will be nineteen next May. a beautiful girl, vivacious and Intelligent This match is, of course, quite Impossible now, and the pros|>ectlve bride generally spoken of at this time Is Princess Stephanie of Hobeitsollern Slgmaringen, the daughter of Prince Karl of Hohencol lern. who la two years younger than Prince George.
