Berlin, Feb. 5. —Hay a prince of the ;
German imperial family sell his own
private property without the kaiser’s
consent?
This weighty legal problem is today
agitating the minds of Berlin society
and especially of those exalted person
ages who move in the most select court
circles. The subject is under discus- '
sion because two young men of the im-.
perial family, Prince Frederick Henry I
of Prussia' and Prince Joachim Albert }
of Prussia, have announced their in
tention of selling the palace of which
they are joint owners, nt public auc
tion. The palaee is a noble building,
situated in the Wilhelm Strasse, and
standing in its own grounds, extend
ing over an area of two or three acres
right in the center of the city, repre
sents a very high monetary value.
Both Prince Frederick Henry and j
Prince Joachim Albert are in disgrace,

The two princely brothers are cous

involved in ugly scandals.
Prince Frederick Henry’s name wn
freely mentioned in connection witi
several affairs of an unprintable char
acter and he received orders from th.
kaiser to absent himself from German;
for an indefinite period. It is state,
that before he was dismissed fron
court and expelled from the countr;
he was summoned to the imperial pres
ence to receive a violent box on th'
ears from the kaiser. After this epi
node he left Germany and has subse
quently resided in Egypt and Italy.

’' Baron Liebenberg, who was willing to

public by way of revenge. Upon this
' Prince Joachim Albert likewise fell
into disgrace, was dismissed from the
court and sent away from the country.
He retailiated by marrying Miss Sulzer
and settled down with her on an estate
which he bought in Austria.
The brothers inherited the palace in
* Berlin from their lather. Tho kaiser
’ has resolved to forbid its sale. The
princes claim the right to sell it by
virtue of the ordinary law of the land,
and the kaiser claims the right to.pre
veut them selling it by virtue or the
family laws of tho honse of Hohcn
j zollern, which give him absolute power
over all members of the family and
! their property.
The questiou to be decided will be
I whether the family laws of the house
; of Hohenzollern can overbear and out
! weigh the ordinary law of the land,
land whether two princes of the im
। perial family have less personal rights
I than ordinary citizens of the empire.

Aronsohn's Experiences.
The famous sculptor. Aronsohn of
Paris, has arrived here after his ex
pulsion from Russia. He gives this ac
count of his exciting experiences
there:
“I was summoned by the governor
general of Kief to visit that city to
superintend the work of erecting a
monument to the late Czar Alexander
■ 11. After conferring with the gover
nor-general. he requested me to pro-
I coed to St. Petersburg to lay my plans
and sketches before the highest au
thorities of the country, whose assent
was necessary before anything eould
bo done at Kief.
“In possession of a properly authen
' ticated passport and provided with nu
merous weighty letters of introduction
from the governor-general to some of
the highest officials in the country. I
proceeded from Kief to St. Petersburg
and took rooms at the Hotel Europe.
“In accordance with the Russian
law which requires every traveler to
have a passport, and to produce it. T

to the exalted personages to whoth I
had been sent by the governor-general. |

sale is positively the greatest sacrifice of dependable merchandise ever offered the
people of this city and vicinity. Not a shoe reserved, all go in this sale at re
markably low prices owing to the necessity of raising $lO,OOO by February 19th.
<ALL SHOES MARKED IN PLAIN FIGURES SHOWING REDUCTION)
It’s the history of every great business that there are times when they are in urgent need of
ready money— money that must be raised quick to meet obligations that are due and past due.
That’s our condition, hence this Compulsory Sale. We must, and are compelled to raise $lO,OOO. We
are going to sell shoes for less then we can buy them again ourselves—we are going to sacrifice
everything in our mammoth stock until we raise $lO,OOO.
Don't let this great opportunity slip by without taking advantage of it. Regent's line of shoe
values even at regular prices are much better than any similar priced shoes in the city, and at the
prices quoted here it means that you are going to buy shoes at a price never before quoted in this city.

reason of this measure, which I regard
ed as a mistake, but I was told that
the police had issued the order with
I due deliberation and that I must, leave

1 The reason given to me was that, be

' the call of one of the highest officials
[ in Russia, aud yet 1 was treated there
I almost as a common criminal and eject-

“One of the most curious features

' a purpose which apparently ought to
appeal to tho heart of every patriotic
Russian—the erection of a monument
to Czar Alexander 11, but even this
had no influence on the Bt. Petersburg

I callous disregard for the dictates of

Wants His Holiness to Give
Testimony in Strange Will
Entanglement.
Rome, Feb. 5. —The Lanciano court
has expressed its approval of the sug
gestion that the pope appear when tho
action challenging the validity of tho
will of Mgr. Adami is proceeded with.
The rasa is a remarkable one, and some
astonishing evidence is likely.
According to the Messnggero and
other papers the testator was a man
who had accumulated a fortune, of be
tween $900,000 and $1,000,000, nil of
which, in a will executed two months
before his death, bo bequeathed to the
pope, ft was pointed otit to him *mt
his holinoM is unable personally to in
herit u bequest of the kind, wherein in
he decided upon a ruse, and solo his
etate-to the Vatican for half a million
lire. -
Immediately on the death of Mgr
Adami his three female cousins com
menced an action at law, alleging that
। the testator was not mentally fitted to
execute n will, being afflicted in mind,
aud that the testament was invalid.
Plaintiffs intrusted their case to Sig.
Sialoin, the present minister of justice,
who has presented to the Lanciano court
a memorandum in support of his clients'
contentions. '
Says Fortune Was From Heaven.
The memorandum sets forth, among
other things, that Mgr. Adami claimed
to have received his fortune direct from

duty of leaving eveiything to the pope.
The following narrative (the Messng
gero says) is also embodied in it:
“When he had made his will Mgr.
Adami derided to leave Rome and pa’s
his Inst days in his own country. He
took carriage and left for Sangro. On
the way he fell into a deep sleep, and
on waking pp found himself in his bed

“ ‘But this is my room,' said the dy

“♦No. We selected one identical
with your own room in Rome.’
Mgr. -Adami allowed himself to be
persuaded. Believing himself at Bo

bishop, aud asked him to come to him.

A few words having been changed the
