THE LATE COUNT TOLSTOY
WHY HE LEFT HOME. WIFE'S ECCENTRICITIES. Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. LONDON, January 3. (Received Jan. 3, at 10.50 p.m.) M. Boulanger, Count Tolstoy's intimate friend, in a four-column article in Tho Times, ascribes tho late Count's sudden impulse to seek solitude to his wife's growing demands. He adds that Count Tolstoy agreed to entrust her with his diary, and also agreed that M. Tchertkoff, his old comrade and disciple, should not visit the house, and that he would neither meet nor correspond with M. Tchertkoff. Yet whenever he returned from his accustomed Tide he was overwhelmed with reproaches and accused of secretly meeting M. Tchertkoff. The culmination was reached when he heard his wife, who believed him to be asleep, enter his study and begin to search: his papers.
