WHY The PRINCESS LOUISE Is GOING BACK TO
EUROPE.
NEW YORK, July 10 "A Quebec special
saws: The cause OF the early and uneX-
pected return to England Of the vice regal
party is said to be the indiSposition OF the
Princess Louise. Her royal Highness has
been suffering acutely from before her de-
parture from this city for Metapedia, on the
salman.f.hing expedition, from nervous
ness and sleepios,ness. Her condition
having become more alarming, the visit 10
the Metapedia was cut short by about q
| fortnight. The indispoSition Of the Prin-
cess is believed ty her physicians to
be a result of the accident last winter in
Ottawa, when her royal HighnesS was
thrown ont OF sleigh, sustaining cut on
the side Of the head. This wound was more
serious than at first suppOsed-at all events,
By the public. Her royal Highness lately
Osced the finger OF q lady OF this city, with
whom she is on familiar terms. in quite a
deep furrow above her ear, left by the acci-
dent in question No local affection is feared
az 4 result Of that accident, but the entire
nervous system Is upset and severe prostra-
tion has set in. Her royal Highness has
been advised by her medical attendants to
VISIT a German spa; after which she will
spend some time in England before her re-
| turn 10 Canada. The strict secrecy maintain
ed so far respecting the indisposition OF The
Prince and Princess is only to be accounted
for on the suppositiOn that it was feared eX-
aggerated reports might reach Queen Vic
tora through English newspapers. The
idea that Lorne will shortly resign Office, in
order to be less separated from his wife, be-
comes more prevalent. The Government
steamer Druid left Yesterday for Rimouski,
where, il is understood, Prince Leopold
and party will embark on board for trip
up the SagUenay.
