LONDON, June 16.-Everybodyi is talk
ing Of Lord and Lady Brooke. Ali Cos
sip aside, the relations between the pair
have been little more than formal for
several months past, ard they have hot
usually answered the invitations of roy
atty together. 1t is rumored that lold
Brooke has in his possession letters
nearly as interesting as those in the
MOTdaunt case, written by the Prince
Of Wales, and which call for some
clear definition Of the line between
piatonic affection and the seventh COM
mandment. Lady Brooke has lately
shown desire to win back her husband,
who will in all probability soon be the
Earl of Warwick, and but for the bac-
carat scandal she might have succeeded.
That raised such a storm of denuncia-
ton, in which Lady Brooke's name held
prominent place, that Lord Brooke is
thoroughly disguised and will no longer
play the part of complasant husband TO
his beautiful wife. Both of them are
Independent as TO Properly,
Lady Brooke. having a considerable in
herited estate near Colchester. a
friend of Sir William Gordon Cumming
has written to the United Press CORE
spondent, saying that, to remove posi-
bic misrepresentation, it was desirable
to state that Sir William is entirely in
dependent of any fortune that his bride
may bring him, and is able to meet the
costs of the recent trial without
serious Impairment of his estate,
that Lady Cumming has not mar
ried a Chateau eSpagne," and will,
''aS customary among Americans and
Britains, retain entire conduct of her
property; that Sir Williams proposed
visit to America will not be in connec-
ton with getting portion of his wife'S
estate under his control, as he is under
no such necessity, and in the opinion OF
tie writer. the loss of the society of the
Prince of Wales will be amply repaid to
Sir William by increased ability to live
within his MEANS" The popular cru
SADIE against the Prince of Wales shows
no signs of abating in strength or
bitterness. After the lecture delivered
last night at Carnarvon, Wales, by
Henry NJ. Stanley, the band played
God Bless the Prince of Wales" The
Welchmen, however, no sooner heard
the first strains of the familiar air
than they raised
a Storm OF Kisses
which almost drowned the noise of the
band. All seven religious meetings held
in various parts of the country yester-
day the Prince of Wales was roundIy
denounced for the share he took in the
baccarat scandal. At the Methodist
conference now being held at Leeds,
the visit TO Tranbycroft was classed as
''a gamblers orgie." III letter pub

Gazette the writer asks why a
captain in a household regiment
who is wanted by the police in connec-
ton with the Cleveland street scandal,
and, who is now residing in Tunis,
should have been allowed to resign
when Sir William Gordon Cumming
was dismissed from the army for his

evidence OF the attitude of the press and
the public on the question of royal pre-
negatives, a letter which is published

The writer calls upon the local authori-
ties to
Prosecute the LaW-Ereakers
under the statute and not to exempt
from punishment those members of the
royal family who may be shown to nave
violated the law. The fact that this
letter is published by the Standard goes
tar to show the feeling that has been
aroused by the actions of the Prince of
Wales. The News says: 1--WE venture
to say that the Prince of Wales new de-
parture in substantially apologiZing to
parliament and the country exhibits
just Difference to public opinion, and
will dispose of the whole matter. The
pain which the unpleasant process
must have cost the prince will count as
a part of his eXpiation with every gen
erous mind. The fact of an ill-assorted
companionship of years and dignities
on the stool of repentance, though it is
an honor for Levett, must be al addi-
tional annoyance for the Prince
of Wales" The Chronicle cavils
at the government and the war
Office for providing cushion to soften
the Prince of Wales fall. Instancing
the case of private who was degraded
for shielding a comrade who stole
trifie while drunk, the Chronicle asks:
"Why should field marshal, the
Prince OF Wales, be treated differently?
We get nothing i'll the shape of military
benefit from placing royal persons in

we expect is that they remember that
they wear the queens uniform"
A Courageous Farson.
HALIFAX, n. S., June 16.-The bac-
carat scandal has produced an impress
sion in religious circles in NovasScotia.
The arrangement in this province is
that the military shall attend certain
specified churches according to the re
iigious denomination to which they pro-
fesS to adhere. In the authorized gar
rison Methodist church Sunday night
Rev. DR.. Lathern made little sehsa-
ton when he prayed that the
queens throne might be estab-
iished in righteousness; that the
Holy Spirit might come down upon
the Prince of Wales so that he
should separate himself from all forms
of sin and seliSbneSs and be filled with
the fear of God. In this city. where
the preponderance of the military and
official elements is so strong, the use
even of such guarded language Is con-
siderably commented upon. The sem
sation is the greater from the fact that
Prince George of Wales is in the city,
and when the words we're spoken was
in st. PaaPs church, short distance
from the building where the audaciouS
divine was praying for what he consid-
cred SO needfui blessing.
