Ellen Terry's Taie-Clara
Bellies Letter.

NEW YORK, March 2S.--[Correspond-
ence of the BEE. shall We have a trip
let of presidents wives in Washington
next summer? Mrs. Francis Cleveland
will be there of course, except when hot
weather drives her away. The second
queen-by-courtesy of a republic will be
Madame Dia2, of Mexico, who is to start
on IL tour of this country in May, coming
~leisurly across the continent from San
Francisco, to arrive in New York in
July. She will spend some time in
Saratoga, Newport and Long Branch,
and it is fair to presume that she will
go to Washington to pay her respects to
Mrs. Cleveland. The third member OF
the trio is Madame Carnot, wife of the
present president of the French repub-
lie. With her lies the only uncertainty
as to the interesting meeting. | read
in the Paris Figaro that she cOntem-
plates an ocean voyage in some direc-
tion or other next summer, and that
her inclination is to cross the At
lantic, but South America appears
to be in her mind. However, it would
seem strange to give that comparatively
embarrassing continent preference over
our own, and II she sails westward, as
she is QualifedlY announced TO do early
in the summer may we not count conf
IDENTIFY on her meeting Mrs. Cleveland
and Madame Diaz in Washington? In
that case somebody might get up a per-
sonally directed tour for the various
South American p~residentesses, so that

The only competitor with our own Mrs.
Cleveland for prominence in such a
gathering would be Madame Carnot,
She is the soul of gracious dignity,
brilliant in conversation, anda magniti-
cent dresser and a handsome woman;
but Mrs. Cleveland would have the ad-
vantage of youthlulness and u greater
degree of beauty. So we need not be
shy ABOUT il.
