Nephew of Emperor Joseph of Aus
tria Thinks Former Wife Should
Live Like Servant.
BERLIN, July 14—Leopold Wolf
ling, formerly the Archduke Leopold
of Austria, who is being sued in the
Munich courts by his former wife,
Frau Adamovitch, for an increase of
her monthly allowance from $80 to
$200, submitted to the court that she
was originally a servant and "ought
to he content to live in that station
of life.”
The court reserved its decision.
Leopold Wolfling, now a Swiss cit
izen, was Archduke Leopold Salvator
of Austria until he renounced his ti
tles eleven years ago in order to mar
ry Wilhemine Adamovitch, a Bavar
ian stage beauty.
Emperor Francis Joseph granted
permission to him to leave the im
perial family, but ordered him not to
enter Austria-Hungary or any of its
provinces without permission.
Married life did not run smooth
ly for the ex-archduke. His wife
joined a colony of “nature-followers,''
who went nude. The husband follow
ed the cult for a while, but tired of
living on a vegetable diet and sought
a divorce. This was granted in Vien
na seven years ago yesterday.
Herr Wolfling promptly married
again, this time a young Prussian
servant girl named Marie Retter, and
they lived in a small fisherman’s cot
tage at Blonville, on the Normandy
coast. The wife wore peasant’s cos
tume and Herr Wolfling adopted
coarse linen. Frau Adamovitch, the
first wife, brought suit for alimony
in November, 1909.

NEW HAVEN ROAD
WAS LOOTED
Interstate Commerce Commission
Charges Morgan and Associates
With Graft.
WASHINGTON, July 14.—The In
terstate Commerce commissioners
have completed the investigations
into the administration of the New
York, New Haven and Hartford rail
road and issued their findings today.
The report denounces the previous
administration of the road and says:
“The manipulations of the stock and
the money of the road is the most
glaring instance of maladministra
tion on record in the United States."
The report does not single out
Mellen or Morgan as the responsible
head of the stock and money job
bing, but makes the direct charge
that $40,000,000 has been lost to the
stockholders of the railroad, most of
which, however, the re'port states,
can be recovered because the direct
ors are liable and were guilty of
fraud.
It is charged that besides the $40,
000,000 stolen another $25,000,000 was
wasted because of the negligence of
the directors in caring for the trust
imposed in them by the stockholders.
It is expected that associations of
stockholders will commence legal
action at once against J. P. Morgan
& Co. and the directors who aided
in the' looting.
SPECIAL COINS
FOR PANAMA FAIR
WASHINGTON, July 14.—Senator
Elihu Root today introduced a bill in
the Senate providing for the issuance
by the government of a Panama ser
ies of coins to commemorate the
opening of the Panama canal similar
to those issued at the world’s fair
in 1892 held at Chicago in honor of
the discovery of America.
HODGE
SEATTLE, July 14.—Bob Hodge,
former sheriff of King county and
the Progressive candidate at the last
election for governor, has announced
that he will stand for election this
fall as sheriff.
Hodge expects to secure the nom
ination on the Bull Moose ticket.

BUSINESS MEN
TOON«
WASHINGTON, July 14.—Ballots
began to pour In today at the head
quarters ot the Chamber of Com
merce of the United States in the
national reefrendum vote on the pro
posed regulation of “business prac
tices” in the administration anti
trust bills. The 568 organizations and
2,000 individual members of the or
ganization of “big business” will cast
votes. "The vote will define the at
titude of the business men of the
country towards the details of the
bills,” was the official announcement
of the chamber.
That it is largely a “paper” or
ganization and is not really repre
sentative of business interests has
frequently been charged against the
organization. The results of the ref
erendum, which are expected to be
unfavorable to federal regulation of
business practices, will be announced
within a fortnight.
THERE WERE DENTISTS
A THOUSAND YEARS AGO
WASHINGTON—Dr. Marshall H.
Saville, Loubat professor of American
archaeology in Columbia university,
discovered on a trip <o Ecuuador last
summer evidences of successful
transplanting of human teeth more
than a thousand years ago.
“In a skull,” writes Professor Sa
ville in The Bulletin of the Pan
American Union, “was a right lateral
incisor which did not belong to the
jaw, but was transplanted to replace
the middle incisor. There seems
to be no reason to doubt that the
replacement was a genuine triumph
of the ancient dentists.”
