The Herald's correspondent at Zurich, Switzerland, cables the report of an interview with the Crowiii Princess of Saxony in which ,sh is quoted as saying that M. Giroa is the only man she ever met whom she If tit she could love, and that it was a question of mutual love and affinity which made her Life impossible without him. "Between my husband and myself," said tthe princess, "there was mo bond of sympathy. He was a typical rough officer. I, myself, was full of ideals. How miserable that life was. I tried so hard to bear it for the sake of my darling children, whom I adore. I also hesitated for the eake of Saxon people, whom I love as deeply as tthey love me. But all that could not alter my resolu tion. The ills of my life at the court were too great to bear." The dynasty being Catholic and the people Protestnat, the affair is being utilized for sectarian controversy.

Blomberg, Leading Cigar and Sporting Goods store, Patton avenue terminating ithe blockade, and other matters touching the personnel of the commission, which, it is expected will meet in Washington to lay down the lies of the arbitration- scheme. Inasmuch as certain European pub licists have taken exception to the ef forts of the United States to bring about arbitration between Venezuela and the allies, as a violation! ofl all the tradition and rules of international dn tercouse, the attention of one of the most eminent -American members of the representatives of the Hague con ference, one of the men who framed the Hague convention itself,, was di rected to the criticisms. He very promptly cleared away the misunder standing ooii this point by pointing to article 27 of the Hague convention as justification of the attitude of the United tates. The article reads: "The signatory powers consider it their duty, if a serious dispute threat ens to break out between two or more of them, to remind these latter that the court is open to them. "Consequently, 'they declare that the fact of reminding the conflicting par ties of the provision of the present con vention and the advice given to them in the highest interests of peace, to have recourse to the permanent court, can only be regarded as friendly action." The paragraph .was proposed oy France and, singularly enough, it was opposed principally foy the. United tates, yet the United States, is the first of the nations to avail of is pro visions. The reasons for the opposition of our delecate was a fear on their part that it would seem 'to be a be stowal of power upon European coun tries to intervene in American affairs and in a manner an infringement of the Monroe dootrie. The French dele gates were exceedingly anxious to rrrv the Daragraph, however, and thev finally succeeded in quieting the Nominated to opposition or tne uraiea b i gates, through tne reservauon uy ui latter of the right to deal with Ameri can affaire in accordance with our es tablished doctrines. This -was thought to safeguard the Monroe doctrine, though it is held here that it only re corded an opinion of the United States delegates and did notbind the Hague tribunal as a whole.
