ems certain, as “Harrington's” ehi<f
point in his defense is that the man
he was convicted of slaying is now
ilive in the person of James P. May-
bray, whose band of horse and foot
racing swindlers was broken up by
ti»e Federal Government after many
of them had been sent to prison.
The “Barrington” trial, which formed
an International case on account of
the defendant’s claims to British no
bility, has proved a bone of conten
tion and a mystery to the police for
ten years. Opinion as to the prison-
r’s guilt has been divided.
The greatest point made against
“Barrington" at the time of his trial
was the fact that his claims of birth
were not proven. Even in the history
of his life, which he has submitted to
the Pardon Board. “Barrington” has
refused to give definite facts.
The report that Grace Cochran, the
Kansas City girl vs ho was married to
“Barrington” while tile latter was be
ing feted in St. Louis as a member <•?
the nobility, and who later had their
marriage annulled, is aiding him
proves to be one of the strangest inci
dents of the case.

SIGMARINGEN, GERMANY, Sep f .
6.—Royalists of Portugal, who, ever
since King Manuel and Queen Mother
Amelia fled before the Republican up
rising in 1910, have fondly hoped for
the restoration of the monarchy, have
had their hopes raised to the highest
pitch by the marriage of Manuel to
Princess Augustina Victoria of Ho-
henzollern, which took place here on
Thursday.
They believe, not only that the
wedding of the youthful leader of-
their cause, will cement feeling in
Portugal in his favor, but they re
ceive vast encouragement in the fact
that through the representation of
every royal house of Europe at the
ceremony, formal recognition was
given to Manuel as the rightful ruler
over the nation whose people deposed
him.
The kinshin of Manuel to the rul
ing house of England and the fact
that the bride, though but distantly
related to the Kaiser, bears the family
name of the German war lord is
looked upon as tremendously ad
vantageous, should the Portuguese
royalists once more take up arms and
endeavor to overthrow the republu
and once more establish the throtie
The ceremony was performed ac
cording to the Roman Catholic ritual
and was conducted by Cardinal Nette.

Brilliant Royal Gathering.
There was a brilliant gathering of
princes and princesses. Among them
were the Prince of Wales, represent
ing King George of England; PrinCe
Eitel Frederick, representing Emper
or William of Germany; Prince and
Princess Henry XXXIII of Reuss.
Princess Friedrich of Hohenzollern,
Prince Carol and Princess Elizabeth.
Also among the 75 guests wore the
Duke of Montpensier, who declined tu
be King of Albania; Queer* Mother
Amelia of Portugal; the Infante and
Infanta Carlos of Spain, representing
King Alfonso; the Duke and Duchess
of Coburg, the Grand Duke and Grand
Duchess of Baden, the Duke of Opor
to of Portugal, uncle of ex-King Man
uel; the Duke and Duchess D’Aost i
of Italy, representing King Victor’
Emmanuel; Prince William of Hohen-
zollem, famer of the bride, and Count
August Eulenburg. grand marshal to
the reignirg Hohenzollern family in
Germany.
Enormous crowds of townspeople
and strangers began gathering around
the castle early in the day. Prince
William had great tables set along
the roadway filled with good things
to eat and drink and all were invit. d
to help themselves. Many foreign
tourists, Americans and others, vh<. j
happened to be in the neighborhood,
drove Into the picturesque litth v..-
lage hoping to get a peep at some of
the distinguished guests and maybe
at Manuel himself.
Civil Ceremony Performed.
Before the religious rites a civil
ceremony was # conducted by Count
August Eulenburg, who is empowered
to conduct such functions by reason
of the high office he holds.
Prince Augustine was given away
by her father. Four royal princesses
were bridesmaids. The bride wore a
white satin gown with a long train
and trimmed with lace, which has
been in the family for many decades
Sigmaringen Castle is a picturesque
spot, settling high on a rocky prom
ontory abcVve the Danube. From its
windows can be seen a mighty stretch
of uplands, running down to the
wooded banks of the Danube, so old
in song and story.
The wedding gifts cost a fortune.
The royalists of Portugal collected
$20,000 and sent some handsome
plate; the bridegroom presented his
bride with a costly string of pearls;
King George and Queen Mary of Eng
land sent a silver dinner service, and
Queen Mother Alexandria of England
sent a gold wine service.
Although ex-King Manuel and his
bride are bound by blood ties, ih^ re
lationship is somewhat distant and
offered no obstacle to the marriage.
The paternal grandmother of Prin
cess Augustina Victoria was tin In
fanta Antonia of Portugal, sister of
Manuel’s grandfather, King Luis of
Portugal.
Distant Kin to Kaiser.
The Princess is the only daugntcr
of Prince William, the head of the
.non-reigning line of Hohenzollerns,
who live in Suabia in southern Ger
many and still adhere to the Catholic
faith. The relationship between this
line of Hohenzollerns and the 1 in
of which the Kaiser is the head is
very remote, and it is necessary ,o go
back for hundreds of years to trace it
The mother of the Princess is Prin
cess Marie Therese of Bourbon-Sicily,
only daughter of the late Prince Louis
of Bourbon, Comte de Trani. who was
a younger brother of the last King
of Naples. Prince Louis’ widow *s
still living and one of the two sur
viving sisters of the murdered Em
press of Austria. Princess Augustina
Victoria’* great-grandfather was
Prince Charles Anthony of Hohenzol
lern, a close friend of Napoleon ill.
Until .1849. Prince Charles Anthony
and the other Suabian line, the Hoh-
enzolierns of Hpchingen, exercised
sovereign rights over their respective
dominions, but in the revolutionary
wave which swept Europe in that year
they surrendered their sovereignties
to the Crown "f Prussia, in return f jv
a perpetual annuity from the Prus
sian treasury.
Precipitated Prussian War.
Prince Charles Anthony, after sur
rendering his sovereignty to Prussia,
devoted himself to railroad construc
tion and became one of the railroad
kings of Germany. His eldest son,
Leopold, married the Infanta. Anto
nia of Portugal, and in 1870 became
a candidate for *he throne of Spain,
from which Isabella had been driven.
It was his election to that throne,
which he declined, which precipitated
the Franco-Prussian War. His
brother Charles had already been
elected to«the throne of Roumania, .n
1866. King Charles of Roumania lost
his only child, a daughter, when she
was quite young, and selected as his
heir apparent his nephew. Princess
Augustina Victoria’s father, Prince
William, the son of his brother Leo
pold.
Prince William was duly proclaimed
Crown Prince of Roumania, hut after
residing in Bucharest for three yenrs
decided that he liked neither the
country nor the people, and re
nounced his rights of succession and
returned to Simaringcn, where he has
since lived.
Thus but for a whim Manuel’s bride
would be a princess royal of the
reigning house of Roumania. King
Charles then selected Prince Ferdi
nand, another nephew, and a brother
of Prince William, to fill the place
vacated by the lai >er.
The princess’ full name is Augus
tina Victoria Wilhelmina Antoinet‘3
Mathilda Ludwiga Josephine Maria
Elizabeth, and she was born 22 year3
ago in Potsdam.
History Is Tragic.
The history of ex-King Manuel’s
ancestors in Portugal is a bloody one.
His great-grandfather. King Pedro,
and his wife died suddenly of a
strange malady, the King following
the Queen to the grave within a few
weeks. The story goes that the\r
death was caused by a mysterious
Oriental vegetable poison adminis
tered by a lady of aristocratic Portu
guese birth, who feared the King’s
attentions to her. Pedro was suc
ceeded by his nephew, King Luis,
grandfather of Manuel.
King Luis and his 16-year-old
brother Ferdinand were suddenly-
taken with the same symptoms is
King Pedro. Their father. King Con
sort Fernando, wa- almost crazed
with grief when an English physician
gained admittance to the palace an 1
administered an antidote for the poi
son. Ferdinand died the next dav,
but King Luis recovered, though
throughout his entire life he has
never been able to id himself of th?
effects of the poison. The woman
was never brought to trial, hut was
compelled to spend the remainder of
her life in a convent.
King Luis was succeeded by his
son Carlos, who. together with hta
eldest son, Crown Prince Luis Philippe,
was assassinated in the streets of
Portugal in February, 1908. and thus
the right of succession devolved upon
Manuel, the second son of King Car
los.
Manuel Deposed in 1910.
The internal trouble which resulted
in the assassination of Carlos and his
son was the culmination of the cor
rupt government and intolerably
heavy taxes instituted by Carlos upon
bis accession to the throne in 1889.
King Manuel, during his short reign,
had no time to change the order of
government, and his deposition in
1910 was due to political causes rather
than to hi* extravagances and fond
ness for ladies of the stage, as some
are inclined to attribute it. The
names of Vialceva, the Russian danc
er. and Gaby Deslys were frequently
mentioned with that of the young
King, however
After his flight from' Portugal with
his mother, Queen Amelia, Manue!
took up his residence at Wood Nor-
. ton. Ev n, England, his poverty
1 having loiced nim to accept the hos
pitality of the Duke of Orleans. The
republican government of Portugal
has granted Manuel a pension of $3,-
300 a month, but this is not sufficient
for the needs of the young man, who
still retains the title of King and
maintains a retinue in kingly fashion.
Manuel was born on November If*
1889, and lienee is a year and a half
older than his bride. While he was
sitting on the throne of Portugal ii
was believed that be would marry an
English girl. In the fall of 1909, on a
trip to England, it was expected that
he would ask for the hand of Princess
Patricia of Connaught or of Alexan
dra, the present Duchess of Fife, who
will be married to Prince Arthur of
Connaught in October. There was
a rumor of the possibility of his mar
riage to the daughter of the Kaiser,
who recently married the heir of the
Duke of Cumberland.
Manuel, by courtesy of the mon-
archial courts of Europe, retains hi?
rank as King, and his bride is entitled
to be called “quise” and addressed as
“Your Majesty.” The Princess will
also be known as the Royal High
ness Duchess of Saxony.”
The castle at Sigmaringen, the
home of the bride and scene of the
wedding ceremony to-day, was grant
ed to the senior branch of the Hohen
zollerns by Emperor Charles V in
1534. It previously had belonged to
the DeMontfort and Werdenberg fam
ilies, both of which became extinct.
Married on Portuguese Soil.
The castle is grouped around a tow
er of Roman construction dating from
the early Christian era Its various
owners have tried to make it both a
castle and a palace. It ha.s the ram
parts, bastions, towers and battle
ments of a castle and all the dainti
ness and magnificence of a palace. Its
galleries contain many of the most
famous art treasures of Europe, in
cluding several old masters, statuary,
enamels, ancient arms and historic
relics of every conceivable descrip
tion. The castle is perched on a rocky
eminence overlooking the Danube.
Manuel was married on Portuguese
soil, for a sack of earth had been sent
from Lisbon for him to stand on dur
ing the ceremony.
Manuel is related to the present
Kings of Italy and England. His
grandmother was a sister of the late
King Humbert of Italy, and his great
grandfather was the uncle of the
Prince Consort, husband of Queen
Victoria and father of Edward VII.
Chair in Lake for 40

Wreckage Was From Almost
Forgotten Steamship.
MAQUETTE, MICH., Sept. 6.—
Walking on the beach of Lake Superior
near Mgrquette, A. A. Cole found the
remains of an old chair which had ap
parently been washed up in a recent
