A BROTHERS STORY.
Alestar Cumming Tells of Sir
Williams Peculiarities.

BALTIMORE, Md. June 5.-Alestar
Penroy Gordon Cumming, brother of Sir
William Gordon Cumming, and a resi-
dent of Maryland for the past twelve
years, has been interviewed at his resi-
dence, 1.-The Clovers," in Carroll coun-
ty. He said: II do not know what.
can tell you about my brother. and as
for the baccarat case | only know what
read in the papers daily. Sir William
has been to America Oh several occa-
sionS. His last visit was in 1887. He
had been hunting in the Rockies. and
came East to visit me. AS for the affair
in London, L only know | shall never
believe he cheated at baccarat until he
tells me so himself. My brother was
one of those men who always make
enemies. He carried his head high and
was always extremely reserved, and
never knuckled to any one. | don't be-
lieve there was any well-planned con-
splracY, but certainly he has misplaced
his friendship. Nothing in the world
would make me believe he was guilty of
cheating. Why should he? He Is a
man of the highest honor and has
that is. he has good salary as lieuten-
ant colonel of the guards, besides an in
come of $4,000 or $4,000 year. MY
brother has always played cards great
deal; everybody does over there. Those
who do not are the exception"
Questioned as to Sir Williams in
timacy with the Prince of Wales, Mr..
Cumming said: "They were warm
friends for years. When Sir William
was in the Soudan he cOrresponded reg
ularly with the prince" "And what
do you think of the princes testimony
at the trial?'' 81 would rather not eX-
press an opinion ''Do you think it
was just to your brother?" "Since you
put it that way, will say that l think
the princes testimony utterly unjust.
My brother is not on trial, but it is a
terrible handicap to my brother to have
the prince against him. ''Have you
any theory as regards the accusations
againstSirWilliam or have you thought
of his alleged mode of play?" ''My
brother" said Mr.. Cumming, twill be
affected slightly by the play. de always
had a hdgety way with his hssAds.
/ remember that my mother used to
speak to Sir William about his nervous
ness and say to him: "For goodness
sake. quit doing that" When playing
cards he was constantly handling his
chips like many men do at the faro
table. Sir William would repeatedly
break things in handling them. 1 re-
member that he did SO when here. The
witnesses may have thought tney saw
my brother cheatinS when he was
simply csary0usiY handling his chips

Conservatives Take Pride in
the Record of Bloody
Balfour.
Forecast of the Seeretary's
Probable Future Course
Of Action.
Dillon and O'Brien Must Serve
Out Their SEN
tences.
The Baccarat Scandal Will
Bring Trouble to Wales
General Notes.

LONDON, June 5.--Mr. Balfour's pro-
posal TO relax the coercion act will not
be explicitly announced in the house of
commons until next week, but enough
is now known as to what the govern
ment Intends to propose to justify the
Conservatives in feeling some little
pride over the results of Mr. Balfour's
policy. All the provisions of the crimes
act directed against criminal conspiracy
will be withdrawn, whilst other provis-
ions, notably the secret inquiry system,
Will be retained. Mr.. BalfOur'S first
statement that while there are 3,0l9
prisoners III Ireland who were sem
fenced under the ordinary law. there are
only 21 who were sentenced under the
crimes act, has been the occasion in the
Unonist press of telling contrasts with
the coercion policy under MIR. Glad
stone, when the prisons were chock full.
In the face of prison statistics, and in
the face also of the fact of absolute
peace in every district i'll Ireland and
the cessation in the press and on the
platform of expressions of discomfort.
the Gladstonians will find it difficult to
cepted Liberal explanation is that the
PacificatiOn of Ireland
is due as much to the Gladstone policy
as to Mr. Balfour's coercion, and further,
that the Dublin executive has long been
playing with coercion, and when the
coercion screw is put in use crime has
run up and when the screw is loOsened
it has run down. Doubtless a number
of fnh fn i0tr tI,.,
BalfOur regime with the steady CESSATION
of disorder, but the blindest PARTISAN
ship cannot refuse Mr.. Balfour the credit
of attaining the results which his
persistent policy aimed at. His ad-
ministration has seen the National
league broken to pieces. the plan
of campaign collapsed, and coercion
suspended. Mr.. Gadstone's latest
utterance on his rule is home writing to
the Women's Liberal federation that
the 1lish crisis is as acute as ever, and
that4home rule as fixed plank in the
Liberal platform is as certain as ever,
but Irish questions are asleep as
far as electoral interest goes with a
I duiescSnt Ireland. The land bill is still
likely to occupy the house for week.
Mr.. Balfour has sent message of
peace and good will to evicted tenants
in accepting the clause enabling land
lord to let a holding over the head of
the man in possession TO an evicted ten
ant or his predecessor. Evicted ten
ants can claim pre-emptlon right, and
will only be ebe to benefit by the
clause within six months after the evic-
ton, but the provision saves from ruin
many victim of the plan.
Mr.. Balfour to-day said that though
he considered the time had come when
certain portions of the coercion act
might be suspended, especially the
clauses dealing with summary jurisdic-
ton. he never meant that the action of
the government should be retrospective
so far as remitting the sentences of
Messrs. Dillon and O'Brien was con-
