LYING DEAD AT SANDRINGHIM.
LIBERALS EXPECT A VICTORY TODAY

in caneelling Sir r. ID. Morier as Ambassa-
dor to Rome and deciding to retain him at
st. Petersburg, Foreign Office authority
is instructed to state that Sir r. ID. Morier's
health is improving and he had expressed
his willingness to remain in Russia. This
explanation vas offered tonight as all that
could be officially given.out
Sir r. ID. Morier some time ago obtained
leave of absence on account of weak health.
He was in London and left as vigorous as
ever The transfercnce when arranged was
not associated with reasons of health.
On inGuiring into the genuine causes of
Lord Salisbury's action points were elected
which indicate that the retention of Sir Il.
u. Norier at st. Petersburg, is due to the
fact that the Government is cooperating
with the German and Italian Governments
in trying to persuade the Gar to abandon
the French alliance and join the European
pact, leaving France unsupported.
Appealing to the Cars Personal Likes.
Sir r. d. NIorier, who is persona grata at
the Russian court, being much liked by the
Gar, is using his influence to arrange 4 con-
ference between the Emperors of Russia
and Germany, at which it is hoped the old
harmony of relations NAV be re-established.
1t is now reported that the German En-
pcror will send either a new Ambassador to
st. Petersburg or a special envoy. The in
tricacv of the questions requiring solution
before permanent agreement can be OBJ
tanned, must involve prolonged negotiations.
J'aron Vivian, who was nominated for st.
Petersburg. las in the meantime had his
appointment TO Rome approved by the |
Queen.
Lord Salisbury, though still suffering |
from a cold, came from To- field House to-
dav and had an Interview with the Austrian |
Ambassador at the Foreign Office. Before |
leaving he prepared a circular addressed to |
the Conservative peers, requesting their /
presence in iull force on the reopening Of |
Parliament on February 9. This circular \
viii he issued Monday. Mr.. Gladstone's |
circHlar is also expected to be issued early 1
in the week.
Royalty Not = Subject of Charity.
During the Prince of Wales short stay |
in town to-day he saw many intimate
friends. Alluding 10 the suggestion that |
the money subscribed for wedding presents
10 Princess Nav be made the nucleus of a
National pension, he said this proposition
could not possibly be entertained. Being
thus disapproved. nothing more Will be
heard of the proposition. The encourage of
the Prince now favor the idea of Submitting l
10 Princess Nav what may be done with
the money in the way of the creation of a
memorial to he Duke of Clarence
The neglect Of the German Kaiser to OBJ
serve the respect due 10 the Duke Of Clar-
cuce, is resented in court circles here. The /
EnperOr went on a shooting excursion to
BUchsburg on the eve of the Dukes DEATH
although he had been apprised that his con-
diiion was desperate. Even after receiving
the telegram announcing the Dukes DEATH
Ie continued his sport and had another
days shooting, returning to Berlin Friday
evening, and, instead OF Immediately |
Fastening 70 express his coincidence, the
Emperor did not call on the British Am
bassador until Sunday afternoon.
Trying to Forca the Kaiser 10 Mourn.
Finally, the nearness of relationship iusti-
fed the court here in expecting that the
Emperor would order mourning for three |
weeks instead Of for only 10 davs. The ex-
Empress is believed 10 have written to a |,
parsonage in the English court that she mad
been pained by her SON s want of considera-
rion. and that she also had cause TO COM
plain, as the Emperor did not call upon her
as custom and duty dictated until the third
dav after the Duke of Clarence's death.
The best Interpretation put on the be-
havior of the Emperor is that lie had fit
Of eccentric humor, such as now and then
frequently occurs, and that he allowed his
latent ill-Hiu toward the Prince of Wales
10 display itself
Prince George of Wales, instead of leay-
ing the navy as itwas reported he woulddo,
is likely to be promoted to the command of
the Queens Yacht, Victoria and Albert, and
after q short interval Will become a Rear
Admiral.
Researches for precedents, enabling
Prince George 10 marry Princess May have
disclosed that it is q rule that in the event
Of tire death of her betrothed royal prin-
cess mast wait five wears before becoming
again betrothed.
Not National Calamity.
The Chairman of the Miners Federation,
who at a recent meeting tried to have the
delegates adopt resolution of coincidence
with the Prince of Wales, got his own local
association in Manchester to pass the de-
sired resolution. This, however, fails to
affect the significance of the delegates re-
fIsal TO vote coincidence. The leading
union paper, the I'orlmaa's Times, while
expressing the tenderest sympathy for
Princess Nav, declines TO magnify this
single instance Of blighted hopes into a
national calamity, and protests that men
ought not allow it TO shift their mental bal
ance or seduce them to sniveiling and effu-
sive declarations or loyalty to the throne
The result Of to-norrow's polling in the
Rossendsle division is awaited with strained
anxiety. No bye-election was ever before
fought with such vigor on each SIDE. The
Unionists ceased operations on the day OF
the funeral of the Duke of Clarence but the
Liberals did not, and this fact will ALLEVIATE
some votes from the Liberals.
Liberals Can spare "A Few Votes.
However, as the Liberals calculate upon
q majority of 800 at least, they can afford to
lose ultra-ioval and doubtful voters. Their
candidate is i'll in bed with influenza, but
he is supported by the ablest Gladstonian
speakers and canvassers.
The letters of Mr.. Gladstone and the
Duke of Devonshire, exchanging recriml-
nations the origin OF the home rule
policy, viii not affect the issue. The
Unionist papers describe Mr.. Gladstones
letter as characterized by unblushing
eflrontry and inscriptions mendacity,
while the Gladstonian press says that the
Duke OF Devonshire's letter is disgrace
fully disingenuous. 1t must be admitted
that both criticisms have some justification.
The Newfoundland Government is press
ing the Imperial Government to sanction
the ratification of the treaty with the United
States negotiated by Mr.. Bond in 1880, and
urges that there be no further delay, in
order that the treaty may pass the United
States Congress before March 4. Lord
Knu;sford, the Imperial Secretary for the
Colonies, appears to be reluctant to move in
the matter
