February 20, 1903
Prince Philipp of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha has been accused of profiting financially from his wife's relations with Baron Hirsch.
The accusations were made today in the Austrian parliament during a debate on the army bill. The Prince is an Austrian Field Marshall. The charges were made by Princess Louise's friend, Geza Mattachich, who was sentenced to four years imprisonment for forgery. The charges assert that Prince Philipp forced his wife "to encourage the advances of the late Baron Hirsch and with compelling her ask the Baron for money."
