CHARGE STOUTLY DENIED Princes, Who Was San Francisco Divorcee, Says There Is Abso lately No Basis for Pro posed Divorce Suit. PARIS. Sept. 14. Though accused by his wife of having lived for months off her earnings as an actress. Prince Robert de Broglie, whose matrimonial adventures were, aired In France and In the United States, a few years ago, has abandoned his spouse and her child and announced his Intention to bring a suit for divorce against her on the ground of adultery. The Princess de Broglie is an Amer ican woman. Her maiden name was Estella Alexander, and she lived in San Francisco. She was the divorced wife of Sidney D. Beit when she mar ried the Prince In Chicago In 190. The Prince's father was opposed to this union, and he succeeded in having the Chicago marriage declared void by a French court. Following this action the Prince remarried Miss Alexander under the French law. .When the Princess was seen at her home today she was Intensely Indig nant at what she characterized as the "cruel and cowardly act" of her hus band. She said that the charge of adultery was baseless, and that It had been simply trumped up by the Prince who doubtless wanted to .rid himself of h'.m American wife for the purpose of marrying another woman or to ef fect a reconciliation with his family. Continuing, the Princess declared that ahe had supported her husband by her earnings on the stage this Summer. While at Ostend singing under the name of Manttza, she sent remittances regularly to the Prince, who was Idling away his time at Cbamounlx and other resorts. Just before he returned to Paris she sent him a considerable sum" of money. When he returned home August 3, the Princess said she noticed coldness on his part and taxed him with It. He thereupon left the house and told her to call upon his lawyer If she wanted an explanation. This the Princess did and was told that her husband had left her forever and that he Intended to bring an action for divorce on the ground of adultery. He claimed, that the amount of her last remittance to Chamounix proved that she had ob tained the money dishonorably. The Princess replied that even had this money been obtained improperly which she denied, the Prince had not hesitated to accept it. , The Princess describes her position as desperate. She is besieged by cred itors and has not a penny to support herself and baby.' Her only hope Is to secure another engagement on the stage. Walking Across Canada on Wager. VANCOUVER. B. C. Sept. 15.

DRAINS OUT CRATER Wonder Performed by Earth quake on Kilauea. FISSURE IN FIERY PIT In Few Hours Boiling Lava or Ha wallan Volcano Is Drained Out, but Another Shock Fills " It Again. HONOLULU, Sept. 3, via San Francisco, Sept. 16. A slight earthquake was felt on the Island of Hawaii Friday night, Sep tember 4, and at midnight the molton lava in the pit of the volcano of Kilauea suddenly ceased rising and immediately began to run out below, the surface look ing like the water in a Datntuo irom which the plug had been pulled. The molten lava ran rapidly away, lowering the level instantly and con tinuously until by Saturday morning, or in something like seven or eight hours, the 900 feet depth of lava in the pit had all run out and, except for the cooling sides of the pit, there was no tire seen or heat felt. As the lava - lowered In the pit the walls scaled off In great masses dropping into the molten lava be low them. The few who weae fortunate enough to see this wonderful phenomena describe it as most awe-inspiring. The lava in the pit, then about 900 or 1000 feet deep, began to rise nearly three years ago and had been rising gradually since, until it was within about 100 feet of the top of the pit. It Is supposed that the earthquake opened some fissure below by which the lava flowed out, per haps under .the sea. On Saturday night another alight earth quake was felt and at midnight Satur day It was observed that activity In the pit had begun again, molten lava being thrown up in fountains more than 100 feet high, and at latest accounts the lava had again risen 400 feet in the pit. UNITE TO DOWN DECEIVER TWO AVIVES OF BIGAMIST TESTI FY AGAINST HIM. Lured From Portland to San Fran cisco, T. P. Collins Will Be Tried for Crime. SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 15. Thomas P. Collins, a stonemason, was today held for trial In the Superior Court for bigamy at the conclusion of his preliminary exami nation In the Police Court before Judge Conlan. His ball was fixed at $5000. That Collins had two wives was discovered by his second wife through an advertisement Inserted In an Eastern paper by the first wife. Collins married Elizabeth Rablln In Sacramento on" July 30, 1907. It Is alleged that he deserted her a year later and went to Portland. His wife saw in an Eastern paper an advertisement inserted by Mrs. Christine B. Collins., of Boise, Idaho, asking for the whereabouts of Thomas P. Collins, her husband. Corre spondence between the two women devel oped the fact that they had married the same man, that Collins had deserted his first wife and had never been divorced. Through a ruse, Collins was prevailed upon to return from Portland and as soon as he arrived in the state was placed un der arrest. Mrs. Collins, of Boise City, brought here by the District Attor ney's office and both women testified against Collins In the Police Court today. District Attorney William H. Langdon personally conducted the prosecution. DISCREDIT SUICIDE THEORY Witnesses Say Rnstin Announced Purpose to Vote as Democrat. OMAHA, Sept. 15.
