IBY CABLE TO THE TRIBUNE,
fa,o,c-,oht: 1889 BY The Netc- York TriI1rn,
london Oct. THE relations between the Prince
OF Wales and the Duke OF Edinburgh are being com
mented upon freely, and the Dukes studied neglect
of the Duke and Duchess OF Fife while he was at
Balmora no doubt led the public to believe that
there has been disagreement the question of tho
Duke of Flies marriage The Duke and Duchess of
Edinburgh dsked the connection on the ground that
they objected 10 daughter OK the Heir Apparent
marrying subject, and no doubt the refusal of the
Duchess OF Fife to listen 70 the addresses of Grand
Duke Michael intensified the feeling The greatest
secrecy is observed on the question among those
about the court but there doubt that the above
are the facts Apart from the Princesss refusal TO
marry Grand Duke Michael IL seems little ridiculous

and TO tolerate the Battenberg alliance 1t seems 10
be pretty we'll admitted that for the future the Duke
and Duchess Of Edinburgh will live only small

hers of the Royal family OF Russia who enjoy incomes
from the crown living certain time Of the year In
Russia will oblge the Duchess TO live in that country
more than she has hitherto done. The loss OF tho
Sultan has annoyed and worried the Duke OF Edh
brgh and the criticisms OF the press have angered
him greatly and the Fife marriage has been the ast
straw TO the load of grievances. The Duke OF Edih
| burrh never has been very popular In England and
his departure Will be taken with equanimy. He
| and the Duchess will come over from time TO time
TO see the Queen and they win still retain Clarence
House. but will take another place IN TINS country
