PRINCESS LOUISE REPENTS.

Begs Her Husband to See Her Chil-dren.

Princess Louise, repentant and sor-rowful, has sent a tearful letter to herhusband, Crown Prince Frederick ofSaxony, begging him to let her seeher children just once more on Christ-mas. Her maternal love has provedtoo strong to see the children she socruelly wronged when she eloped withher lover some months ago. Thecrown prince replied that he was will-ing to grant her appeal, but that KingGeorge would not permit it.

Accompanied by her brother and hisparamour, Prince Louise and her lover,M. Glron, her French tutor, left thehome of the crown prince and fled toSwitzerland.

As there Is no divorcing of thecrotoned heads of Saxony, the princeand princesß live apart from eachother, although she is still his legalwife.

The escapade of the PrincessLouise was one of the most sensationalaffairs of its kind that has occurred inEurope for many years. She admitted,after going away with Glron, thatPrince Frederick had been good to her,but that she was wild to get awayfrom the humdrum of the dull courtlife of Saxony, and get once moreinto the excitement of the outer world.

In her letter to the crown princenow she does not ask for forgiveness,but says that the shame of her ad-venture has fallen heavily upon her,and that her heart is aching for asight of her little ones.

11l HUES SUITGIVES HIS VERSION OF THE CELE-

BRATED MONTANA CASE.

Declares That the Standard Oil Inter-

ests Are Not Law Respecting?De-

fends MacGinniss?Heinze Offers to

Make Places for Married Men Who

Worked for Amalgamated Company.

Butte, Mont., Oct. 26.? F. Augustus

lleiuze has made an interesting state-ment, giving his version of the cele-brated controversy with the Amalga-mated Copper company, and theschemes for settlement of the questionwhich has now Drought Montana faceto face with an industrial crisis. Mr.lieinze's statement was made upon theheels of the disappearance of JohnMacGinniss, who, it is alleged, fledfrom Butte to avoid meeting the com-mittee of the miners' union who soughtto buy his stock in the Boston & Mon-tana company, and thus end the liti-gation with the Amalgamated Coppercompany. A feature of this statementis Heinze's assertion that MacGinnissabout a year ago was offered twice asmuch for his one nundred shares inthe Boston & Montana as the sumproffered by the miners' union, thoughthe $500 a share offered by the miners,according to unquestionable authority;is approximately live times the pricethe stock can command at the presenttime.

His Statement.

Mr. Heinze said in part:"The history of the United States

has not furnished heretofore a parallelof the occurrences of the past 48 hoursin Butte. H. H. Rogers oi the Stand-ard Oil Company is quoted in a dis-patch as saying this will be a fight toa finish, and there willbe no compro-mise. Mr. Rogers and myself havebeen engaged in a bitter struggle foryears past, as every one knows. Hehas had at various times interestedwith him in the controversy prettynearly every large interest in thestate, and he and his followers havemany times prophesied my immediateimpending bankruptcy. In the courseof this struggle, however, the Snohom-ish Tramway, the Nipper, the L. E.

R. and Parnell and many other claimshave been developed by me into minesand they are now ail closed by injunc-tions, some of which have been in

force for over six years, and in thisway I have been prevented from givingemployment to over 20uU men morethan I am now employing.

"Mr. MacGinniss has recently ob-tained an order in his suit as a stock-holder of the Boston & Montana com-pany. This suit is based upon the al-legation that Mr. Rogers did not givedue regard to the laws which werepassed by the early pioneers whoadopted our constitution and otherlaws. Should the supreme court holdwith Judge Clancy in his recent de-cision it is possible that Mr. McGin-niss' interest in the Boston & Montanacompany might eventually prove torepresent 10 per cent or even more ofthat property.

"The offer which the miners' unioncommittee is empowered to make toMr. MacGinniss is less than 50 percent of what he refused in 1889 andmany times since. Mr. MacGinnissleft Butte because most of the newspa-pers and large interests in the townare doing everything they can of amost Inflammatory nature to causetrouble and to incite riot during a 1heated period which in any event cando nothing but reflect discredit uponthe citizens of Butte.

"Early next week I will open abureau in this city, where I will askall the married men who have beenthrown out of employment recently toplace their applications for employ-ment. I will ask the men now work-ing for companies controlled by myselfto agree to work less than full time,

and in this way I hope to be able tomake room for over 1500 men.

"If this present trouble is to be usedas a reason for compromise, the con-troversy about the Nipper and manyother claims should be consideredsimultaneously. A number of timesduring the past three or four years Ihave offered Mr. Rogers to submit theentire controversy between us to aboard of engineers, as disinterestedarbitrators, and in each Instance Ihave been met by the condition that Imust leave here defeated and ceaseto operate in the Butte camp. It wouldnot have been possible for me in thepast to make the fight which I havemade if the miners of Butte had notstood by me. I believe I have stoodby them faithfully, and I propose tocontinue to do so."
