LONDON, Jan. 8 A mjsterlous an

Yard slates that tho Itov. Frederick
Perrlval Karrar, tho formor royal
chaplain, who Is now a disgraced cxllo
had been seen In Pari last week, ac
companied by a woman, believed to
bo his wife.
Tho Parrar scandal Is being forgot;
ten by royal command, uud there Is
little likelihood that tho raso will bo
revived through Investigation. Scot
land Yard Is making no effort to ap
prehend tho minister, and It la qulto
likely that tho warrant Issued against
Karrar upon a basis of gross Immor
ality will novcr tie served. The cler
gyman has been reported various!) as
fleeing to America and tho continent.
Tho Itev. Farrar's namo has been
dropped from tho list of rerognUed
clergy of tho Church of Rngland be
en u so of tbo nature of the. charges
brought against him.
Friends of tho Fnrrnis mo touched
by lite loyalty of Mrs. Fnrrur, who be
fore hor marriage was Miss Nora Da
vis, sister of Klchard Harding Davis.
Mrs. Farrar Is believed to bo with hor
husband.
The return of King George from lu
din will to somo extent revive Interest
In (ho case, for It was early during the
king's absence that revelations which
led to the dismissal ot the chaplain
were made. King George sent tho
dismissal by cablegram,
Despite the flight ot Mr. Farrar,
