. Paris, Jan. 8. According to a curious
story published by the ' Oil Bias, the
,,nystery of the ,fate of the pauphln Is
revealed L in. a secret . document, pre
served in the ministry of the Interior,
which M. C'lemcnceau examined prior
to his resignation as premier.
Many persons' believe that th Dau
phin escaped from the Temple prison
during the 'revolution and settled in
Belgium, where he afterwards lived
under tha name of Naundorf and fol
lowed the occupation -of a,- watchmaker.
Naundorf was recognized by the Brit
ish and Dutch governments as the duke
of Nermandy, and -tils defendants
cllamed the. throne of France. Three
of Naundorf's grandsons, known re-
i spectively as Prince Jean, Prince
Charles and Prince Louis Edmond, are
living In Paris.
The Gil Blas declares that shortly
before M. Clemenceau reslgned-a great
lady told him that the archives of the
ministry of the ' Interior contained a
paper relating the truth of the escape
of the Dauphin from the Temple
prtpon and attesting the authenticity
of the Naundorr claim.
This document, known as "the red
paper," was found by M. Clemenceau,
who said to his informant a fortnight
later:
"Th document has been found and
la now in my desk, where It will stay.
Its contents are a state secret which
I am not at liberty to disclose. I can
only assure you that the truth wijl be
revealed, and I answer for this."
