FLOPING PRINCES FOUND IN GENEVA ” and ‘French Tu Louise of Saxony Joined by a Brother tor—Her Husband, Weary of Her Escapades, Will Seek Divorce from Woman nounced Throne for Wove. Who Re- I renounce all rights due me th.ough my relationship to Fred- erick Augustus, Crown Prince of Saxony. LOUISE ANTOINETTE, Crown Prine of Saxony. aa Word Dec. has just been received here that Crown DRESDEN, Saxony, Princess Louiee, whose disappearance has caused such a furor, is in Geneva, Switzerland, under the name of Fraulein von Oben. Het brother, Archduke Leo- pold Ferdinand, and Prof. Giron are at “the same hotel. The Archduke has as- “sumed the name of De Buriano, The party are living quietly and propose to spend Christmas there. Prof, Giron is sald to be a French tutor with whose name that of the Princess has been frequently associated. He {s described as twenty-four years of age, and ‘‘a striking personality ‘with large, bright eyes.”” Court gossips here point out that this fs Dut one of a hundred escapades in which the Princess has indulged. Here are a few of the thjngs she did before her crowning escapade to shock the sensibilities of the gold sticks of the Buropean courts: Danced with untitled persons in pybile. Displayed her hose while coasting on a bicycle, Lionized a democratic author contrary to the King's orders. ; Rode in street-cars and petted stray children in the streets. Indulged in peppery her royal relatives. Interrupted the Kaiser who was mak- ing a speech by singing “Prosit.”” ! Twice she has been sent into seclusion for her pranks and now her royal hus- + band and her father-in-law, the old King of Saxony, have decided that her latest offense 1s unpardonable. They have made the Cabinet privy to the circumstances of the Princess's flight, as they see them, and a decree of divorce is talked of as a necessary sequence to the Princess's resojution to Ieave the court forever. It 1s pointed out now that she ts a Princess of the house of Hapsburg, the + unfortunate royal family which has sup- plied so many tragedies and sensations. @ay m Tutor Wen? with Her. Advices from Vienna say that when fhe Crown Princess left Salzburg she was accompanied by her brother, Arch- duke Leopold Ferdinand, and that the Princess went to Munich, where a French tutor awaited her. Her brother was also joined there by a beautiful Viennese woman and the two couples remarks about proceeded to Brussels and thence to Geneva. It appears that when the Crown Prince returned recently to Dresden af- ter his hunting accident in the Tyrol. he discovered secret correspondence ex- changed between the Princess and the French tutor, whose former relations with her had created a scandal result- Ing in the tutor’s expulsion from Saxony. Besides disclosing the couple's rela- tions the letters revealed another scan- dal. Immediately afterwards the Pringess left her home and went to Salz- burg. The fact that she took a trun Aled with jewelry and other valuabl indicates that she was prepared for emergency. It is reported that Archduk Ferdinand has written Francls Joseph renouncing ignities as a member of the | House, and saying he will civil subject. The whole of the A duke's career te redolent with scandal dating from the time when he started to ecompany the heir to the throne on & tour of the world. He only got so far as Colombo, where he was obliged to leave the ship on account of his scanda!- ous behavior. The Archduke has since been mixed up in a number of affairs and was confined for some month# in an asylum. Some weeks ago the Princess accom- panied her husband on a visit to the castle of Salzburg, maintained by her royal relative, Emperor Franz Joseph of ‘Austria, She was in ugly mood and at- tended only such court functions os wer absolutely necessary. When her hus- band broke his leg while out hunting ‘and returned to Dresden in order to be nursed by his actress Inamorata, the Princess remained behind. On the night of Dec. 11-12 the Princess presided at a reception. She appeared fn tranqu!l mood, but excused herself at “midnight on the plea of weariness while an pold nperor the festivities were at their height. She | prepared for bed and her maid re- fred. Later the servant went to the royal apartment. # The figure In the bed was motionless. Something prompted the mald to return second time, She was horrified on ap- proaching tie bed to find that it con- tained only a’lay figure, The lady-in- waiting was aroused, and then the entire Yousehold and a search of the grounds nade, Then the letter of renunciation feft by the Princess was discovered, At @aybreak the secret police of Sal were notified. They dragged the ponds about te place, thinking the Princess ight have killed herself, One of the “gentinels told of a white-robed figure he “had seen passing trom the castle to an obscure corner of the garden shortly ‘after midnight.

His death was anticipated for some days, and only the Arehbishcp's remarkable vitality en- abled him to counteract his extreme weakness, The final collapse occurred about 6 o'clock, and he was unconscious toward the end.
