Offered a Place in History at
Prince AIbert'S Great
Expense.
(By Cable.)

LONDON, June 3.-Opinion is
general among the uppertendom
Of London that the Prince of
Wales had shown lack of good sense
and good nature for which he has
been credited. when he went out of
his way to kick an apparently fall
ing man by declaring in court yes
terday that he no longer desired to
be classed as one Of Sir William
Gordon Cummings friends. His
trepidation on the stand has left
painful impression on the
minds of those who observed
the first gentleman OF England
clawing 1T his beard, shutfiing his
feet, and nervouslv drumming the
edge Of the box with his fingers.
The individual examination bv one
of the Jurors of the Prince was a
startling occurrence. and this has
made a place in history for that
Juror. Sir William Gordon Cum
ming was promptly OH hand when
the court was declared open, and
showed no traces Of the ordeal
through which he passed yesterday.
Immediately the court had been
called to order, the Prince of Wales
entered and occupied the seat re
served for him to the left Of the
Lord Chief Justice.
Sir Charles Russell, counsel-in-
chief for the defendants. on his
opening address to the Jury
on behalf Of his clients. scored
the plaintiff for having so promptly
signed the humiliating and insulting
document which had been submitted
to him. The first witness for the
defense was Mr.. Arthur Wilson

testified that on the first night o
play he had seen five poun,
