Orders for Louise's arrest are issued

February 4, 1903

Detectives are watching every train from the south to see if the former Crown Princess Louise of Saxony is on board. Her young son, Christian, is "dangerously ill," and court officials are worried that Louise might try to come to Dresden to see him. She and Monsieur Giron left Mentone for Geneva in "great haste." Detectives have been ordered to arrest Louise if she crosses into Germany.
