LORD sALIsBURY's SERVANTS.

The Small Army of Personal Retain
ers Employed by the British Premier.
London Correspondence Philadelphia Press
The present Marquis of Queensbury keeps
about seventy Indoor servants, exclusive of
dependents of higher class, such as private
secretaries, librarians and chaplains. All
of the servants are only in activity when
the marquis is at Hatfield, his London rssi-
dence not requiring so large a service. |
give the catalogue roughly in the order of
importance. First there is a house steward
who pays the other servants, and
is charged to a certain extent with their
management. He received 81, 900 a year,
and his assistant, the under steward, $3.50.
The butler is paid $3.50 year and the two
under buffers $3.50. Two French cooks are
paid $500 year each, and valet $500
year also. Then there are eight coachmen,
the best of whom receive $3.50 year; eight
foremen, who receive, on aa average, Sl75
year, and four grooms of the chamber,
whose pay is about the same. OF women
| servants, there are eight kitchen-maids
whose pay ranges from 1925 to 1915 year !;
eight house maids and four still room
maids, all of whose pay is on the same scale
as that of the kitchen-maid.
| have omitted to mention four lar Ter
boys, whose pay is probably very small,
| but who doubtless have good opportunity
workmen in constant employment on the
| house; large number of pensioners and a
| long string of professional or educated
men. Sometimes 100 visitors and servants
are at Hatfield at a time. The upper
| servants dress for dinner, though for that
matter they are usually in evening dress,
| and my ex-butler told me that forty serv-
ants, male and female, in full dress, often
! sit down to dinner in the upper servants
| hall This includes, of course, the Wallets
| and lady's maids of visitors.
OF course, very important item in the
| income of these servants is contributed by
| tips, which they call walls" correct but
some what unusual word. The servants
| who come most in contact with visitors re-
ceive fully half Their wages over again in
| the form of tips.
Lord Salisbury spends a fortune every
| year among employees at Hatfield, indoors
and out. He has for instance, head
| gardener with twenty-five assistants and a
| forester with twenty men under him. The
| total yearly expenditure of Lord Salisbury
| is about S400, 200, and he is by no means
| one of the richest of his class.
| These facts only refer to the servants of
the very exalted. They find the life to be
one of uninterrupted and balmy content.
The servants of the smart, but poorer peo-
| pie in the " est end of London do not have
nearly such a good time. These are the
| people who must keep snowy men servants,
but cannot afford to have proper supply
| of help in the kitchen. 1t is generally be-
lieved that when they have their houses
crowded at the hight of the London season
| the servants are slowed away to sleep some
| where In the cellars.

state Il is the duty of the state auditor to
organize the senate in the alb
senee Of the presiding officer.
When that body convened Judge Mitchell
Of the supreme court asked II Auditor Carr
was present Mr.. Carr stepped out and
briefly stated the constitutional presiding
officer was at the door demanding admis-
sion and h, would not usurp his power.
Senator johnson then submitted a resolu-
ton directing the auditor TO order the door
keeper to admit Col. Robertson. He put
the resolution 10 vote, and amid great
| uproar declared II carried. but IL had
no effect on the democratic door
keeper. Judge Mitchell and the democratic
senators then proceeded 10 organization,
the republicans refraining from voting.
| Senator James Il. Cox was chosen presI-
dent Of the senate and took the chair. The
| republicans protested against Cox taking
the oath, but Judge Mitchell administered
II and then left the chambers. The minor
offices were then filled and the senate ad-
| iOurned.

cables remain intact The material was
entirely OF iron and steel, ard was owned
by the Niagara Falls and Clifton Suspen-
sion Bridge companies. Loss, $4,000. The
bridge will probably be rebuilt as soon as
possible. All points Of interest along the
river at the waters edge suffered more or
less. The water was never known TO be
so high. The International hotel was un-
rooted and several buildings were blown
down in the vicinity. The gale was the Sc
verest ever known here.
The suspension bridge destroyed by the
storm Is the new carriage bridge between
Niagara Falls village and the Clifton
House, and should not be confounded with
the railroad suspension bridge over which
trains are running as usual.

WASHINGTON. Jan. l0.-Regarding the
deadlock In the house over Weaver's per
sisteDt efforts TO force consideration OF the
Oklahoma bill, the democrats believe II
would be useless 10 discipline Weaver by
means OF a caucus, as he refused to obey
the edlct OF the last one. One democratic
member significantly remarked that the
house would not brook Weaver's action
many days longer, but that II necessary a
resolution Of expulsion would be brought.
Such an extreme measure, however, Is
hardly 10 be expected, especially as Weaver
sincerely exercising the right which the
rules accord 10 him. Some of the republi-
can members contend the speaker should
decline 10 recognize Weaver or 10 allow
him 10 make his filibustering motions
They claim tLat although such action OF
the speaker would be In the nature OF a
despotic exercise OF power, II would be jus
tilted by the present exigency, and would
be in accordance with the precedent set by
previous speakers.
