Princess Louise of Co burg, whose relations with Keglevlch Mattasitch, the former lieutenant In the Austrian army, caused great scandal In European royal circles seven years ago, and who has sines been kept under the closest restraint, has vanished from Bad Bister, when she has been taking the cure. It is presumed that the princess la in the company of Mattasitch and is seeking to gain an asylum where she will be safe from recapture.

escape of the princess was accomplished in a mysterious and romantic manner, ladders nnd a swift automobile being brought Into play to effect her reieaso from the hotel where she has been kept almost as a prisoner and to convey her to some refuge. Not the slightest trace of the of the pair has yet been discovered, and nothing Is known beyond the fact that the princess and another guest of the hotel, believed to have been Mattasitch. have disappeared, and with them the Jewels of the princess and an automobile. Princess Louise, who is .1 daughter of the King of the Belgians, accompanied by a lady watti: and two physicians, who were ber warders, came three weeks ago to Had Elster, which is noted as a health resort. On account of the long lapse of time since the original scandal.

the watch on the princess had become slightly relaxed, but it was made more stringent than ever when it was noticed that efforts to communicate with the princess personally and through the medium of notes were being made. Nevertheless, arrangements for the flight were successfully completed, and the room of the princess was found empty. Various surmises as to her destination were afloat, and It is said that orders have been given to watch the borders of Bavaria, Austria, France and Switzer- land. The escape of the princess has created almost as great a sensation here and in Dresden anil Vienna as did the original scandal. Detailed accounts in the newspapers of the flight of her highness overshadow the dispatches from the Far East.

ANOTHER DAY'S FIERCE BATTLE DESPERATE FIGHTING FROM DAWN TO DARK AROUND RUSSIAN POSITION AT LIAO-YAXG.

Rumun Advance South Turning Movement on Kuropatkins More Hand to Hand Encounters. The battle of Liao-Yang, in which forces estimatetl at half a million men and thirteen fondled are engaged, reopened at dawn yesterday, and continued until night, little advantage apparently being gained by either side. Roth attack and defence were again marked by desperate bravery. Dispatches are conflicting, one saying that the Russians had advanced along the railway southward, ami another that the Japanese had turned the Russian left. The losses are merely described as heavy.

Tuesday's fighting ended, Russian advices say, in the recapture of all the positions won by the Japanese and the taking of forty-six Japanese guns. General Sakharoff reported that the main attack was directed against the Russian centre and left, but that numerous assaults were rcpuked along the whole line. He places iiis casualties at about three thousand. Thr Japanese flank movement which began on Monday, eight miles northwest ol IJao-Yang, has not yet, so far as reported, developed its attack. News brought junks from Port Arthur to Che-Foo shows that the Japanese have not yet obtained a foothold within the inner lines of the Russian defences.

Refugees confirm reports that the Russians have reoccupied the Itse Hills. The authorities at i 'he- Foo held a. Japanese steamer with contraband, and the Russian uireless telegraph has dismantled. XOfi.UX lo EITHER SIDE. KI SSIANS FISH SOITH Official Japanese Dispatches Call the Struggle Equal.
