Paris, France, May 2.—Police to-
day started an investigation of the
statement of Peggy Hopkins Joyce
that William Arrazuriz. young
Chilean diplomat, killed himself ia
a room next to her room m the Hotel
Claridge because she rejered his
ardent love.
Errazuriz, whose sister, B«socr. De
Saulles, caused a tremendous sensa-
tion in America in 1917 Ly staying
her husband, wealthy sbciaty man
and formef Yale athlete, was found
Sunday with a revolver grasped in
his hand. It was at first a mystery.
Then Peggy Hopkins Joyce, whose
matrimonial adventures have gained
fame for her on two continents,
came forward and told a dramatic
story of her last night with the
young Chilean.
She told of the frantic court paid
by the wealthy youth and how he
had been insanely jealous of atten-
tions showered on her by Henri Le
Tellier, owner of the Le Journal,
whom Peggy say* she intends to wed.
The three, Le Tellier, Peggy and
Arrazuriz, went to dinner Saturday
night and later to a dancing club
in Rue Caumartin. After Le Teller
had left, according to Peggy. Ar-
razuriz made a final desperate plea
for her hand. He wished her to marry
him when a papal divorce had been
granted, she said. But the former
w’ife of Stanley Joyce remained firm
in her intention to be faithful to Le
Tellier. Arraznrix withdrew in tea.-.i.
He went to his room, which wm
next to Peggy’s.
The actress declared she heard a
muffled shot. When the door was
broken in. the young Uhilean lay
dying from a pistol wound in the
head. He lingered for a while, but
made no statement.

Under the agreement, he wired, the

The Russian oil fields next to those

the fields.
