RUSSIA PRAYS FOR
CZAREVITCH, NEAR
DEATH FROM HURT
ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 25.—The
condition of Grand Duke Alexis, the
eight-year-old czarevitch, who is se
riously ill at Spala. Russian Poland I
where he suffered an iniury in the
groin, was worse today. Peritonitis hav
set in, and an operation will be neces
sary probably.
As the czarevitch is the only son of
Czar Nicholas, his grave illness is caus
ing serious concern. Daily prayers are
still said in the churches throughout
Russia.
An abscess has developed from the
wound, and the corps of doctors in at
tendance now numbers six.
Czar Nicholas and the czarina are
grfefstricken.
but my life." Mrs. Jackson told Chief
Beavers, and continued her search.
Late yesterday afternoon she located
Miss McLaws at 89 Capitol avenue, and
notified the detectives. When they got
there they found that the nurse was
gone, but at last they found her at 6
Love street, and carried her to the po
lice station. More than $l5O worth of
Mrs. Jackson's goods were recovered,
but Miss McLaws first claimed that the
landlady had given them to her, and
then that she had purchased them from
Mrs. Jackson. Mrs. Jackson is satis
fied.
Forgery Also Charged.
The detectives had searched for Miss
McLaws for some time. Chief Lanford
says that reports have come in from va
rious homes in the city, some of them in
the Peachtree district, that things had
been missing when Miss McLaws de
parted, and he is investigating the
charges.
A local bank has also notified the de
tectives that they wish to press charges
against Miss McLaws for forged checks
she is alleged to have passed. She
stoutly maintains her innocence. The
trial will take place this afternoon.
The young nurse is strikingly pretty,
refined and highly educated. She wears
decidedly handsome clothes, and detec
tives say that her wardrobe is elabo
rate.
