LADY JEUNE On LONDON SOCIETY.
Her Article Criticised as Coming From a
Prejudiced Source.
"
[BY CABLE TO THE DIsPATCH.1


LONDON, May Lady Jeune's article
on London society, in the North american
Reria0, has caused some futter here, on &C.
count of its obvious cuts, but the writer,
who is the wife of Justice Jeune, of the
Probate and Divorce Court, and herself,
in limited sense, leader
of society, is not accurate when
she absolves the old nobility from her
scathing condemnation. The evils which
she denounces permeate the entire struct-
ure of London society, including her own
particular set Numerically and proper
tionately the other nobility have been con-
cerned in many more scandals than the
specially abused "new rich" class, during
the 80 years of which Lady Jeune
writes, and the unpublished records
of the divorce court would tell
the same tale. The principals in nearly all
the most loathsome scandals of this genera
tion have been members of the old nobility.
The record stands and cannot be questioned.
The condition of immortality which it dis
closes in the Limited class Is appalling,
but representative, and no amount of
magazine whitewashing can hide it.
Lady Jeune is in a position from which
she can safely lash the vices of a class to
which she does not belong, and from which
she has nothing to gain. If she had courage
she could have found in Mayfair and Bel
gravia, commencing within the charmed
circle of royalty, sufficient material for
half dozen thrilling magazine articles, but
The recital would have closed in her face
many doors, the privilege of passing which
she has obtained by much laborious effort.
In short, Lady Jeune's worldly position is
not such as to enable her to write impair

the world must lament for him, and must
lament for itself, for the sight of one of the
very greatest artists of our time posturing
as a court, or rather as a public, Jester has
been one of our times most dramatic
spectacles. It has not been an improving
spectacle, of course, except in one way. It
has enlarged our understanding of the pro-
team capabilities of single human soul;
and any increase of knowledge in this
direction may be of use in our own daily
lives, especially if we are tempted into the
very foolish course of trying always to "see
the man in his work" Often the man
whose name it bears is not in the work at
all, but some quite different man seems to
be there. Often this man will be found, as
in Whistler's case, far inferior to the artist
in dignity and worth and charm. But I
have known cases where the artist was a
much less fine and interesting fellow than
the man.
Paris Critics Will Be Busy.
At Paris the two big salons are opening

Dumas pictures. The fifth annual exhibi-

this year includes pastels and water-colors,
too, fills big part'of the Palace of the
Liberal Arts at the Champs de Mars, and at

THE INMAN ENTERPRISE
Shaking Up the Other Transatlantic Lines
England and Norway to Be Better
Served - A Patriotic Dodge Being
Worked
rBY CABLE TO THE DISPATCH ]


rBY CABLE TO THE DIsPATCH.1
LONDON, May THE Inman people
have decided to make bid for the lucra-
tive passenger traffic between England and
| Norway, which heretofore has been monop-
olized by an interior class of steamers. The
start is to be made early next month with
the CITY of Richmond, which thereafter will
run regularly far into autumn between New
Castle-on-Tyne and the Norwegian fjords
1t is believed the experiment will be prof
liable one.
The Inman's reported intention to accept
American registry for their best steamers
has not yet attracted much attention here,
even in naval circles. Lord George Hanil-
ton, First Lord of the Admiralty is con-
cerned at the prospect of losing some of his
swiftest reserve cruisers, but he is said to
have expressed the opinion that flag trans
fers are easily arranged, which means that
as England is never likely to be at war with
the United States, money could make the
Inman steamers British again at the first
alarm of European war.
The British postofice being conducted
upon purely commercial principles, the In
man steamers will continue to get their
share of the mails, whether they fly the
Stars ana Stripes or the blue pennant of the
royal naval reserve.
The White Star and Guion people are
protesting the most fervid patriotism by way
of contrast with the supposed wretchedly
sordid behavior of the Inmans, but the pro-
fession is wholly uncalled for and somewhat
ridiculous. 1t is rumored that the Duke of
Devonshire's patriotic soul has been grieved
by the Inman's action, and that he is
half inclined to built a feet of swift
Atlantic liners to compete with the City of
New York and City of Paris and their two
sister ships now in course of construction on
the Clyde. The Duke is chairman and auto
crat Of the big Barrow Company, which
built the Empress steamers running be-
tween Vancouver and Yokohama, but he is
withal a cautious man, and is not likely to
urge his company into a course which, in
the opinion of competent critics, would end
in bankruptcy.
Only the immediate effect of the Inman
move will doubtless be to hasten the build
ing of two White Star steamers upon the
designs of which Harland. Wolff & Co., of
Belfast, have, it is believed, been engaged
for some time past

best be translated "spotters," although
someone has been unkind enough to trans
late it "dabsters." And, finally, even the
Independents have been outdone by the
society that calls itself "Rose Croix,"
which being interpreted means Rosicru-
clans. These, says a certain French COM
mentator, are "a band of mountebanks sus-
tanned by some talented madcaps." But
the work of talented Partisan madcap is
sure to be interesting, if not satisfying;
Partisan mountebank is apt to be very
amusing sort of mountebank, and even a
Partisan dabster can dab in way which
will fill people with joy and wonder that
are not altogether derisive. So, say, 1
am sorry for the critics of Paris, and,
hope, the public of Paris does not take
itself and its duties as seriously as the peo-
pie of London.
America for tho Americans.
Not nearly so many American painters go
back to Europe for the summer now as went
even few years ago. They seem to have
got thoroughly acclimatize6, and, unless
they want absolute rest, usually prefer the
chance to work outdoors here to the chance
to work outdoors under their once beloved
skies of France. Of course this is as it
should be, for the result is that distinctively
American character which, year by year,
grows more strongly marked I'D our lanC-
scapes and plein air figure pictures.
But, of course, there is no year when some
of our painters do not go back for a sum-
mer's work abroad. One who will 60 this
year is Mr.. Hopkinson Smith. He expects
to bring US back more of his Venice.
Another who will go abroad this summer is

tion room of the new Hotel Waldorf 1 wish
that his friend Mr.. Isham might go abroad
with Mr.. Low and do a big ceiling from
the small decorative canvas he has now in
the society's exhibition. Until last year
few people knew anything about Mr.. Isham,
and it seems as though he knew little about
himself although he had long painted with
more or less application, and was well acs
credited member of our artistic community
But last year he exhibited an excellent por,

There are many other awkward facts for

Lady Elena Wickham, another horse lover,
was conspicuous at the ringside, and backed
her fancy with sportsmanlike relish. Lady
Randolph Churchill was engaged on both
days in initiating Lady Abingdon into the
of backing and hedging. and they
ran some little coups in partnership.
The racing generally was good. The ab-
sence of Orme rendered the 1000 guineas a
very open affair, the winner turning up in
c. D. Roses Bonavista, horse very little

LONDON, May 7.-The Coroner's jury at
Fulham yesterday returned a verdict of
manslaughter against Susan Clark, wife of a
workingman, for the death of her STEP
daughter, aged years and 10 months. Mrs.
Clark, like Mrs. Montagu, was actuated by
sense of duty" to starve and beat the
child. She had no dark room in which to
imprison the poor little martyr, but she
found satisfying substitute in stair ban
listers, to which the child was sometimes
tied for seven hours at a stretch.
1t will be interesting to see whether COM
mon Mrs. Clark will be let off with l2
months imprisonment, spent in a comfort

clothes, like aristocratic Mrs. Montagu.
The probabilities are that the workman's
wife will spend at least IS months in
prison cell at hard labor and clad in con-
wet garb, which will add emphasis to the
complaint recently made by London police
magistrate tEat there appears to be one law

there is no doubt that the Commander in

Calabozo and its commandant were not
taken without show of resistance, but con-
slant desertions and the want of supplies
had so weakened the Government troops
that to hold out against the resolute forces
which opposed them was no longer possible.
Rumors of this disaster to the flower of
