Y., Aug. 5.—Mrs. Bianca Errazuris’ De Saulles, who is in the county Jail here, charged with first degree murder for shooting her for- mer husband, John Longer De Saulles, was not heiress to millions at the time of her marriage, as she was generally believed to be. but possessed a fortune of only $150,000, according to a state- ment made fonight by Henry A. Uter- hart. her attorney. The lawyer declared that the marital differences of Mr. and Mrs. De Saulies which led to a divorce decree for her began soon ‘after she learned that the vast Chilean fortune which she had expected to inherit had been squander- ed by relatives and that her .wealth was only a fragment of what it had been reputed. In his statement Uterhart that De Saulles got $47,000 wife after their marriage, $37,000 in cash and $10,000 in bonds, which he spent. He declared his client had been told by friends that De Saulles hor- rowed the money with which he went abroad to marry her in Paris. Mrs. De Saulles now is worth only $63,000, rawver sald. Uterhart detailed many incidents which he claimed had caused Mrs. De Saulles to break down in health and epirits. Reverting to the night of the shoot- ing, the attorney declared that when Mrs. De Saulles started in the quest of her four year old son who had gone to visit his father she did not expect to find her former husband at home. It was evident that her plan, Uterhart said, was to carry off the boy before De Saulles returned from his club, where he was supposed to be dining. he had been told by the De Saulles butler over the telephone, the lawyer declared, that Mr. De Saulles was not She then started for the De alleged from his before he returned. Uterhart asserted that Mrs. De Saulles took a revolver with her for protection on her motor ride over lone- 1y roads in the dark and that she ad no intention of shooting De Saulles until he refused to return their son to her.
