Gilmore, 30-year-old fugi- tive from police for the past ‘eighi months, was sent to jail for 30 days when convicted of larceny and held for the grand jury on forgery charges in- volving $150 yesterday at Police Court. Detective Alligood arrested him at Eleventh street and Massachusetts ave- nue Saturday. A warrant was sworn out for him in March of last year, when Richard Israel, 1450 Harvard street, accused him of taking his $65 overcoat, which was later found in a second-hand store. Police charge him with forging names to four checks and with passing three bad checks. Headquarters Detective James Springman handled the case at court today, which was tried befcre Judge Gus A. Schuldt. Bond was set at $2,500. headquarters at Peronne, whence he_could watch his cousin, the enemy. Now while Louis XI would never shirk a fight when no alternative offered, or when the issue was beyond doubt, yet in the astuteness and caution of his nature there was a reluctance to set his fortunes on the hazard of battle if the odds were too closely balanced or if his ends might be attained by any other means. Accordingly, he asked for a parley. is own hand, Charles wrote a letter of safe-conduct, wherein he prom- ised that King Louis might come, so- journ and return in surety. Content with this, Louis went boldly into the lion's den. On Sunday, October 9, the shabby little King rode into Peronne. Thie present is no history of the long duel between France and Burgundy, or even of this passage in it. But a little must be said to reveal the part—ob- scured by historians as irrelevant— which was played by Count Anthony of Guelders to save the honor of the Duke of Eursundy when it stood in direst peril. In spinning a web for the entangle- ment of Charles, Louis had not lost sight of Liege, its grievances for what already it had suffered and its fears for resented protection which Burgundy had imposed upon it. The King’s agents had been very active there, representing their royal master as the devoted friend of the Liegeois. Placing their trust in these royal protestations, the Liegeois had gone about their preparations for insurrection at the opportune moment when the Duke of Burgundy should be engaged elsewhere. King Louis realized the great value to himself of so for- midable an ally in the duke’s rear when | he himself should be engaging the duke’s front. Then came Louis' decision to nego- tiate. He dispatched a messenger to Liege on the eve of setting out to par- ley with the duke. But the messenger arrived too late. The Liegeois were already under arms, and, on the Sun- day that Louis rode into the Burgun- dian quarters, 2,000 of them marched on Tongres to seize the person of the Prince-Bishop Louis de Bourbon. Within half an hour of his entering Peronne, Louis’ confidence in his safe- conduct had been abated by witnessing the advent there of the Marshal of Burgundy, Thibault de Neufchatel. With him were gentlemen of France, who had fled beyond the reach of Louis’ rancor, and who in this hour brought their swords to the Duke of Burgundy that thus they might satisfy the now mutual hatred and mistrust. ‘There was Antoine du Lau, the Sene- schal of Guienne, whom the King had imprisoned in the fortress of Usson, while an iron cage was building for him, in which, unable either to stand France's coal exports last year were 4,000,000 tons greater than in 1928. or lie, and deprived of every ray of what might yet be to come from the |5 STAR, WASHINGTON, The Romantic Prince By Rafael Sabatini Newspaper Alliance and Metropolitan Newscaper Service. remnant of his days. Du Lau had escaped, with the connivance of his keepers, who had paid terribly for his evasion. At Dijon he had found shel- ter and service with the Duke of Bur- ce was Ponoet de In Riviere, who had béen removed from his command in the royal army, after rendering stout service at Montlhery. La Riviere had | departed Prance on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, from which he had been careful not to return until now, in arms and bearings on his surcoat the cross y | of St. Andrew, the badge of Burgun- dian service. Most ominous of all, because of the s | dreadful precedent it established against King Louis, there was Philippe de Bresse, with his brothers, the Count of Romont and the Bishop of Geneva, all three Princes of Savoy. De Bresse had once gone as a mediator to Louls XI under the guaranty of a safe-conduct from the King, in despite and dishonor of which the King had flung him into the Castle of Loches. And there were others, a round doz- en of them, whom the King recognized as fugitives from his anger and de- clared enemies of his person. It never crossed his mind that his presence at Peronne struck the same fear into them that their arrival begot in him. Ap- prehensive of some arrangement be- tween France and Burgundy, they has- tened to the duke, Philippe de Bresse at their head, to obtain of him security for their persons. Knowing nothing of this, the King asked Charles to afford him quarters in the castle itself. The duke acceded promptly, and the King, within the walls _of the castle, felt less apprehensive. But not for long. On the morrow news of the insurrection and violent action of the Liegeois reached Peronne. King Louls’ incitement of them was not to be doubted. Indeed, there was proof of it. Consternation and resentment spread within the castle and town of Peronne. The duke swore that the King of France had come thither to abuse him. It did not help him that he could not perceive precisely how the King was to achieve this object. He never could perceive the aims of that sly, subtle h, monarch. He ordered the gates of the town to be closey, and he placed the King— who was now terrified by a justifiable expectation of the worst—under a guard of archers, while he deliberated n what measures should be taken. These deliberations he chose to make alone with Count Anthony. “He has come hither to betray me,” he swore repeatedly, summarizing all that he had said. “If his aim had been betrayal, why should be have come hither to place himself in your power?” asked Count Anthony. “If? Do you say ‘if'?” Livid with passion, the duke glared at his cousin. “What else has he done but betray 618 D. C,; TUESDAY, me? You have heard how the wires were pulled at Liege by his agents, with the result §hat an army is on foot there.” “He may have done all that, or, at y to it. But hpw, being e work harm against you “But if I knew, I should be less un- easy. But there is one way to make sure of him.” And the duke drew his dagger from its sheath and shot it home again. Count_Anthony shook his head. “Not that way, Charles.” “What better way?” Count Anthony’s answer was indi- rect. “His life and person are sacred in your hands. Your honor demands it In this way he restrained Charles from any immediate measures of re- prisal such as he might certainly have taken had he been left to the counsels of his rage. But on the morrow the battle had to be fought all over again. Early in the morning the duke summoned a coun- cil of his nobles and officers, including those who once had been subjects of the King of France, and who were come to offer their swords to Burgundy. That council lasted all day and well into the night, for the arguments were long and fierce. Four voices prevailed in that coun- cil. First, that which urged that the safe conduct protected the King and made it impossible to move in any wey against his person. fecond, that which urged that he \be imprisoned and made to answer fo\ the sedition he had stirred up in Liege and the blood that had been shed there as a conse- quence. Third, that which advised that he be deposed and his brother the Duke of Normandy invited to come and discuss the terms of peace with France. And lastly, the flerce, insistent voices which demanded blood for blood. This JANUARY 28, 1930. rm‘hEIIO'(hl 1 mm& fear of him for years ane saw no truce to their fears, while he continued to live, It was not easy to silence these last, comparatively few though they might be. Count Anthony had taken some part in the debate to defend the position that the safe-conduct made action against the King’s person impossibl And when Phillipe de Bresse peared to have silenced that argumen by putting forward the precedent in such cases which Louis himself had estab- lished, Count Anthony's was the only voice that answered him, and in an- swering him restored at least in part the position which De Bresse had sapped. e iong Iast, when the day had given place to night, a resolve was reached which appeared to express the desire of the majority: to depose the King and send for the Duke of Normandy. On that resolve, the council at last dissolved, and the duke summoned his secretaries to prepare the letter he was to send to the King’s brother. News of the decision reached the King in his chamber. It would have dismayed any other in his place; him it almost elated in that it removed the worst danger he had apprehended, that of having his throat cut. They might depose him all they pleased. As long as he lived and recovered his liberty, they would have to reckon with him in the end. He had, with reason, un- bounded faith in his own wits. But the end was not yet as the council had decreed. While the duke strodé to and fro dictating, back came Count Anthony, who had departed with the others, “Charles, dismiss your secretary and hear me. I have something to propose.” “If it is aught concerning the King of France, you are behind the fair. My messenger is already in the saddle and but awaits this letter.” Lumbago?—:his will relzeve you Sharp “'rheumatic” twinges! How they can hurt! You lie awake nights. Can’t move without pain.

SLOAN'S EVERYTHING LINIMENT “Hear me at least” the count in- sisted. The duke waved the secretary away. “Be brief,” he commanded as the door closed upon the departing scribe. But there was no haste about Count Anthony, He was as deliberate as he was calm. “First, Charles, you cannot ¢o this thing. The King has your safe conduct, and in the hour in which it ceases to protect him, in that hour you will have been pulled down to the King's own knavish level. You are a great prince, Charles, and you are bound by obliga- tions of your lofty station.” “I1 thank you for the sermon. But it has been preached already, aye, and answered.” “Has it been truly answered? Is it all false? Are you not a great prince? Is your honor tarnished or tarnishable? Is your word worthless?” “Devil take you! You know that none | * of this is so. “Then why make it so? For that is the only lasting thing these letters will achieve. They may bring you a mo- mentary satisfaction . , . “They do not,” the duke interrupted in exasperation. 5 Count Anthony smiled almost com- passionately. “Not even so little as that? Then why persist?” wcThe duke pondered him sullenly. 'You propose an alternative?” he asked. “Why, yes. leased Pl But first it would have me to turn you from the de- cision taken, to make you realize folly.

Let me be your mouthplece and l&l:'wmlu you a solu- tion of all your difficulties.” Reluctantly the duke allowed himself to be conducted. (To Be Continued.) AL TN Butler to Address Reichstag.
