THE LAUDERDALE PEER RAGE.

In the eLAUDERDAI.E peerage case, now be-
fore the house of lords, and the one in
which Senator EDMUNDs was called to Lon
don to testify, the title to the peerage and
estates depends, first, on the validity of the
marriage of RICHARD MAITLAND in New
York in 1772, and, second, the legitimacy of his
children born prior to the marriage. MATT
LAND was Scotchman who came to Amer
lea in 1757, and lived here, with occasional
intervals, until his death in 1772. The val
idty of the marriage is asserted by one and
denied by the other of the present claimants
to the succession. But if the marriage is
upheld another equally important question
will remain.s On the one side it is main
tanned that MAITLAND retained his Scotch
domicile while in the United States, and
that by the law of Scotland the children
by the subsequent marriage. On the other
hand it is contended that he had lost his
original domicile, and acquired new one
in this country, and that by
the laws of New York his chill
dren born illegitimate did not be-
come legitimate by the marriage. Here
there is case where the title to an ancient
peerage with an enormous income hinges on
the domiciliary status of man more than
century ago. In view of the fact that
there is never time when there are not
thousands of domiciled residents of the
United States abroad, and that, just as in
this LAUDERDALE case, questions touch
ing marriage, divorce, legitimacy and in
heritance are to be determined by their
domiclle, the state department has modi-
fed the consular instructions with design
to protect more fully than hitherto the
domiciliary rights of residents of the United
States abroad.

of Small War Cloud in
Afghanistan.
Several Lives Lost by a Destructive
Flood in Paris.
4ladstone and Parliament.

LONDON, June 29.-At meeting of the
Midlothion Liberal association to-day the
chairman read letter from Mr.. Gladstone,
expressing his deep and grateful
sense of the fidelity of the Lib
eral majority of the 18th, in dealing
with difficulties almost unexampled. He
refrains from criticizing the Conservative
cabinet feeling it to be his duty to support
and assist them in doing right He says
he is confident that the presence
of the Liberals in parliament
will be competent to exercise the
necessary vigilance. He asks Midlothian
to assist him in using his strongest and
most sedulous efforts in the interest of the
Liberal party. MI. Gladstone says he did
not think he should again desire to be re-
turned to parliament but that events
had transpired which rendered it
necessary that he should not imperil the
unity and efficiency of the party. This is
tantamount to declaration that he will re-
main the leader of the Liberals. The meet
ing was then addressed by the Earl of Rose
berry and resolution expressing hearty
confidence in Mr.. Gladstone was afterward
adopted.
OPINION OF THE LETTER.
The Times in an editorial thinks Mr..
Gladstone's letter may check Radical un-
rest and enable Conservatives to finish the
business and dissolve early in August. 1t
hoyes that Mr.. Gladstones decision in
cludes an intention to. remain at
the head of affairs to conduct
schemes of local self-government
and if the country is falling to give him a
mandate to undertake the enterprise, which
is even greater than parliamentary reform.
There is no improperly, it says, in de-
manding that so vast and far-reaching
power shall not be allowed to drift fortuit-
Ousy into other hands.
Mr.. Gladstone's letter is the political
feature of the day. The Liberals are now
relieved of anxiety over the question of his
continued leadership of the party and are
jubilant over his decision to remain.

Northern Pacific Stock Business.

Northern Pacific Stock Business.
r. B. Wilson, stock agent Tor the North
ern Pacific road, returned yesterday from
the Western division of the line, where he
has been improving the facilities of the COM
pany for handling stock. Improvements
have been made at Spokane Falls, Sprague,
Lynn, Pasco Junction, Wallula Junction,
TOppenish and Yakima. The shipping of
stock from Oregon, Washington and Idaho
into Montana only commenced this season,
and the future of this business is demon
strated by the fact that this year %, 600
head have already been shipped and 1000
are in transit The stock from the West is
excellent, comparing favorably with the
best bred cattle of Montana, They will be
ready for the Eastern market next season.
This season there will be no marketing
of Western stock, as none was shipped
into the territory last year. The cattle
which are now brought to Montana to be
pastured, were formerly taken to Oregon,
and shipments made from there to Chicago.
This way of doing business, however, has
been entirely abandoned. The principal
shippers in the West are Rosenbom & My
ers, Sanborn G. Land, Hoskins & McGirl,
S. S. Hobson, Charles Anceny and Wyatt
& Ross These stockmen are also shipping
a great many horses and sheep to Montana.
Mr.. Wilson says that the prospects for grain
in Washington and Oregon are very promis
iny. Harvesting of wheat and oats COM
menced week ago at Walla Walla; wheat
harvesting will commence July 1. The
crops are the best ever grown on the Pacific
coast.

There will be notable gathering of Odd

there will be about 5000 delegates in at

the Eastern and Middle states. Ina COM
municatlon in the GLOBE this morning Mr..
A. j. THOMPSON, on behalf of the local re-
ception committee, asks that the city be
decorated in honor of the occasion. The
suggestion is appropriately made, as no
effort should be spared on behalf of our
citizens to give the visitors royal welcome
and make their sojourn in our midst so
pleasant that they will feel on leaving that
it has been good for them to be here.

DELANY'S APPOINTMENT.
Feeling Concerning WiscOnsin.s
New District Attorney.

Special to the Globe
MILWAUKEE, June 29.-The announce
ment of A. NJ. Delany's appointment as
United States district attorney created no
surprise in this city. 1t had been discounted
in advance as Delany's was the only name
mentioned of late in connection with the
office. The new appointee is resident of
Mayville, Dodge county, wherehe has lived
for nearly thirty years. He was sent to the
legislature from this district in 1869, made
comfy superintendent of schools from 1874
to 1880, and was a member of
the state senate in 1SSl-S2. His
name has come more prominently before
the public as the man who spoiled Bragg's
chances for congress in 1882 ami came very
near repeating the little dose il 1884. It
was not until Bragg signed a written agree
ment in the presence of three Witnesses not
to present himself as a candidate in 1886
that Delany consented to with
draw his name. Thy present
appointment is looked upon by
many politicians as shelving Delaney for
the future. Those who are be$ acquainted
with the situation say this impression is er-
roneous. Not very long ago|a friend of
Delany's said that Dekny would
be the next Democratic candidate
from the Second district, WHITTIER he was
made district attorney or not. The gentle
man giving the information i intimately
connected with the politics of Dodge
county and one who can tallpy the book.
Hence his statement seems authoritative
Mr. Hazelton, the deposed district attor-
ney, will remain in Milwaukee and con-
tinue the practice of his profession.

Clumsy Internal Machine.

PHILADELPHIA, June 29.-An ''infer-
nalsap machine of rather clumsy pattern
was sent by mail to-day to L. L. Smith,
publisher of weekly paper. 1t was a
wooden box, about five inches square and
three inches high. The word ''private" on
the lid of the box aroused Mr.. Smiths sus-
picions. He opened the box cautiously and
found upon the inside small breech-load-
ing derringer. 1t was loaded and cooked.
A piece Of copper wire was attached to the
trigger and fastened to the lid of the box,
but in such way that the opening Of the
box could not possibly have discharged the
pistol. The postal authorities are investi-
eating the matter.

MOore's Pooling Plan.

CHICAGO, June 29.-The regular weekly
meeting of the east-bound passenger COM
mittee was held at Chairman Moore's office
to-day. Chairman Moore's pooling plan
was submitted but no suggestions for alter
ations were made, nor amendments offered
and it will go to the managers as formu-
lated. 1t was found that the mo commits
sion' system was working smoothly and
without jar, and the impression prevailed
that the right thing had been done in cut
ting off that excrescence. The general pas
senger agents will do nothing
more until the managers approve
of Chairman Moore's pool. there
seeming to be but little doubt that they will
take favorable action, when the agents will
prepare their statistics of the business of
their roads and submit their arguments rel
ative to the amount of percentage that they
are entitled to from the gross pool. This
accomplished, the experiment will be given
a fair trial.

Freight and Passenger Meeting.

An important meeting OF the general
freight and passenger agents of the North
western trunk lines will be held in the office
of Traffic Manager Clarke of the Omaha
road to-day. The Milwaukee Il St. Paul
will be represented by General Freight
Agent Bird and Assistant General Passen-
western by General Traffic Manager Wicker
and General Passenger Agent Hair, the
Omaha by General Traffic Manager Clarke
and General Passenger Agent Teasdale,
and the Minneapolis & st. Louis by General
Freight Agent Hanley and General Passen-
ger Agent Boyd. Freight and passenger
rates will be discussed fully, and action on
many matters that have caused the roads
more or less trouble in the freight line will
be taken. But the most important point to
be brought before the assembly will be the
commercial ticket question, the Importance
OF it arising from the fact that on the action
the roads take will rest the maintenance or
complete decentralization of frst-class pas
senger rates from ST. Paul and Minneapolis
to Chicago. The Minneapolis 81 st. Louis
has always claimed differential on Chi
cagO business on account of its long haul.
When it entered into the managers agree
ment last fall the Milwaukee Il st. Paul
and Omaha roads conceded it the privilege
of selling tickets to wholesale men to Chi
cagO at commercial rates of 2 cents per
mile, based on the short haul of the Mil
waukee & st. Paul and Omaha lines. This
made the rate to Chicago $3.50, first class,
and was done that wholesale men would
not be compelled to buy the thousand-mile
books 1t is claimed by the Milwaukee &
st. Paul and Omaha that the Albert Lea
did not sell exclusively to wholesale men,
but to almost any one, thus divert
ing legitimate business from them
selves. At the meeting to-day
the matter Of putting this form of ticket on
sale by the Milwaukee & ST. Paul and
Omaha lines will be discussed. If they agree
to do SO they will sell at the $3.50 rate
over their short haul, against the same rate
by the Minneapolis & ST. Louis over its
long haul. Ii the Albert Lea had not viO-
lated the agreement and sold only to those
entitled to the commercial rate, the Milwau-
kee & st. Paul and Omaha claim they
would not put them on. AS the Albert
Lea has always been allowed a differential,
the other two roads have held back, think
ing it would not be policy, as it would pro-
badly ultimately result in a cut on first
class passenger rates. Unless they agree
on some other arrangement at to-dayS
meeting the Milwaukee and Omaha roads
will hold back no longer, as they are both
tired of seeing legitimate business slipping
away from them.

yesterday from a trip over nearly the entire
line of the Manitoba road, his object being
to find desirable part of country to locate

says that when he got as far as st. Cloud
he was almost discouraged. The fields
were wet, and it looked there as if there
would not be over third of crop. At
Moorhead the land was also in bad condi-
ton from the rain, and the prospects were
not at all flattering. 1t was this way as far
north as Ada and Crookston. North of

actual violence, by overawing the others, by

CHICAGO, June 29.-It is understood
that another effort will be made at the
meeting of the Chicago local freight COM
mittee tomorrow to come to some agree
ment in regard to the tariff on Eastern
freight, but there is not much chance that
mutual understanding will be reached.
The Grand Trunk is utterly opposed to the
policy of a rebate, and will not consent to
it under any circumstances, but it will agree
to make 25-cent rate ON provisions and Is
cents on thirteenth class billing, fiat. 1t
is doubtful whether any of the other roads
would care to accept this solution and there
is general disposition to let the subject
rest until after the Niagara meeting, and
give the managers another chance to form
ulate restoration that will be satisfactory
to all.

condition, and in view of this
the farmers countenances were
beaming with smiles of satisfaction.
At St. Thomas, Grafton and Grand Forks
everything is lovely. In this district the
crops last year were almost failure and
the farmers were discou ragged. This year
they did not SOW so much, there being thou
sands of acres which were not ploughed at
all last fall. The entire crop, however, is
looking WELL and the farmers are sorry they
did not SOW more At Devils Lake the
wheat crop is looking nicely. On returning
Mr., Blekre was much surprised to notice at
Moorhead and ST. Cloud, where the pros
poets had been so discouraging, that the
crops were growing nice and heavy, and
there is no fear now that there will not be
a full crop.
