The Question of Succession Furnishes
 Material for Speculation.
 very remarkable feature in con- nectlon with the death of the duke of Clarence and Avondale is the demon strations that are still made. The AL bert memorial chapel was opened to the public the other day, and hundreds of people went from London to Windsor for the purpose of looking at the coffin containing the remains of the duke. Not alone from London, but from many parts of the country people fiocked to Windsor, and every train which stopped at the station added its quota to the crowd. The streets were early filled with throngs of men, women and chil- dren moving in the direction of the castle. All the morning there was steady stream of humanity pouring through the chapel eager to look upon the coffin. They were kept moving along steadily.
 The fear that the duchess of Fife may, through a confederation of events, succeed to the throne, continues to ex- cite the English people, particularly those of the nobility and upper classes. well informed correspondent says that Prince George, of Wales, who. through his brothers death, becomes heir presumptive to the throne, will al- most immediately be made duke of Sussex, and that his engagement to some princess will be announced before the end of the season.
 It is earnestly hoped that the very greatest precautions will be taken with regard to the health of Prince George, for f. ic coi1 ho ic rrifta1 xxyS%h much stronger constitution than that possessed by his brother.
 It was generally understood that when Princess Louise married the earl of Fife, whom the queen afterward created a duke, she renounced her rights of succession, but 1t is now known that she did not. In the event of the duchess of Fife becoming queen the duke of Fife would, of course, be made prince consort, and the idea of his holding that most exalted position Is not at all acceptable to the nation. Such succession might have unfortu- nate results.
 The death of the duke has had a very great effect upon many branches of trade. The prospects of 'the season." however, will not be seriously inter. fered with. The queen having recon sidered her determination not to hold the usual "drawing-rooms" in May, those functions will take place as usual The queen has heretofore been as- sisted at the "drawing-rooms"@ @by the princess of Wales, whose place will now be taken by the duchess of Albany, widow of Prince Leopold, fourth son of the queen, who died in 1884. AL though the members of the royal fami- ly will take no part whatever in pri- vate entertainments, the various dances. teas, etc, of society will continu0 much as usual

Death of the Former President of Yal,
 College.

Death of the Former President of Yale
 College.
 NEW HAVEN, March 4. 4.-Ex-President Noah Porter died at his home, No 81 HIllhouse avenue, at 9 o'clock this morning, after lingering illness, last ing since last December, when he was taken ill with grip. Early in the month of December he contracted cold while out walking and it settled on his lungs. He fought against the disease bravely and skilled physicians were called in, The insidious disease had, however, ob- talned such hold on him that it gradu- ally weakened him until at 3 o'clock this morning he was released from all earthly suffering.
 President Noah Porter was born in Pennington on December 14, 1911. In the year of 1881 he graduated from Yale and for two years taught school in this city. In 1883 he was appointed a tutor at Yale and in 1886 resigned to become pastor of the Congregational church at New Milford, where he remained until .1S4S. In 1S43 he became pastor of the Congregational church at Springfield, but resigned in 1846 to become Clark. professor of metaphysics and moral philosophy. This position he held for twenty-five years, until 1871 when he was elected president of the college. He held this office until 1886 when he resigned. President Porter was univer- sally liked by all who knew him and was especially favorite with the students. During his term as president the college enjoyed an unprecedented reign of pros perity, a large number of buildings were erected among them the Battell chapel, the North Sheffield hall, and the West Divinity hall. He was the author of a number of works among which was "The Human Intellect and others. He was the chief editor of Webster's Amer ican dictionary of the English language published in 1864. He received the de- gree of D.D. in 1858 from the University of New York, and the degree of L. L. D., from the Western college in 1870, and the same from Trinity college at Hart ford in 1871. He leaves two daughters

 Original Claims by the 1st of July Next Last Year S1.ssO,O Was Spent for
 Medical Examinations, This Year 191,-

 Drawing Pensions.
 WASHINGTON, March 4-Gen. Raum, Commissioner of Pensions, appeared be- fore the subcommittee of the House Committee on Appropriations having chaIge of the pension appropriations bill yesterday, with reference to the estimates for appropriations for the next fiscal year.
 Gen. RAum told the Committee that during the last five years 90, 795 pen- sions had been dropped from the rolls, and during the same period 10,646 had been restored. The number of claims filed under the dependent disability act of 1890 was 720, ,228. On the 20th of February last claims were pending for original pensions as follows:
 Old wars, men, 2,227; widows, 1,S39. Service 1861, men, 12s, 312; widows, S4, 571. Act of 1890, men, 162, ,553; widows, GA, 717, making total A, 220. In addi- tion there were pending 1S1, 794 applica- tions for pensions under the disability and dependent pension act, by persons now drawing pensions; IS, ,781 applica- tions for an increaee of the pensions previously granted under the Dependent and Disability act. Applications for in- crease of pensions granted under the old laws, 214, ,216, making 414, ,091 applica- tions for additional and increase of pre- vious. The claims for accrued pensions number 8, ,020, making a grand total of 966, 92l claims pending on the 20th of last month.
 He expects to adjudicate 112, 900 of the original claims by the 1st of July next, some of the work on them being already performed.
 Last year $1,ssO. 900 was spent for medical examinations, and this year $1, 500, 900 would be expended in this work, which would bring it up to date. The rolls showed, he said, that in July last 795, l32 were drawing pensions, and the actual amount of the money spent on account of pensions during the first six months of the year was $63, 0S5, ,675, leaving a balance on hand of $4S, 900, 900 for the balance of the fiscal year.
 Mir. Mutchler, chairman of the com mittee, called attention to the fact that $125, 900, 090 was asked for the next fiscal year, and that last year SPA, ,000, 900 wa spent and that on March the expendi- lures were $7,000, 900 under the cores bonding expenditure last year, so that there ought to be. money left over this year.
 The committee has nearly completed the bill for the coming fiscal year, and the aggregate will be less than that of last year.

FRAUD CHARGED.
A Justice of the Reaoe Accused of M .rk
 ta@ Ballots.

AsAB n1AAOI8s
 PoUGHKEEPsm, N. r., March 4.--The Democrats of the town of Milan, Ouch ess County, are represented in Pough- keepsie by some prominent residents, who openly charge Ezra Morehouse, one of the Justices of the Peace of Milan, with having been caught marking bal lots at the town election on Tuesday.
 The ballots had been counted and the votes for supervisor were a tie. While the recount was in progress it is charged, Morehouse was detected marking @ bal lot with lead pencil Morehouse had confessed early in the court that he had written the name of one Van Nettan on ticket in place of the regular candidate for constable. He said he thought Van Nettan was running for constable. The Democrats claim that the ballot was marked for future identification. More house denies having marked the second ballot.
 The matter has created excitement in Duchess County, as it opens anew the famous marked ballot question here.
 The vote of Milan was finally declared 8 tie on supervisor, and the Town Board of which Morehouse is a member, at ono appointed a Republican for Super. visor, as the law permits.

AMERICAN CARS IN ENGLAND.

One of Our Limited vestIbuIod Trains
 Makes Its First Trip.
 LONDON, March 4.-Ths first train of American cars which ever ran on an English railway made it's journey yester- day from Charing Cross to Hastings and back. It consisted of four drawing rooms, one buffet and two baggage cars.
 The Southeastern Railway, which made the innovation, ran the train in it's complete form as an experiment.. The cars are exact duplicates of those on the limited vestibuled trains of the Pennsyl- vania and New York Central railroads.
 Nothing so luxurious has been seen in this country before and has excited the greatest interest, while the authori- ties believe it will certainly hasten a wider adoption of American railway con veniences which have been so longde- sired by the public.
 Tho newspapers all predict the adop- tion of more American railroad ideas in England in the near future, but they kick against the absence of privacy and hope that the American train boy will not be imported to become a Irrational British nuisance"

A Loud Explosion Causes the Capture oi
 Four Burglars.
 WESTON, Mass., March -Four pro- fessional burglars pried open the door oi the grain store of Frank and Cornelius Keefe early in the morning and blew up the safe, using so much powder that the safe was blown to pieces, desks and chair were demolished, and the entire front of the office was blown out. The noise aroused the neigeborhood who noti- fled the police.
 The men were followed and captured in barn on the Severns place. In the barn several burglars impliments, a flask of powder and two revOlvers were found.
 The men gave their names as Henry Evans, Fred Curtis, Frank Carter and Frank Warren. Their ages range from A to 81. They are believed to be part of a gang of professional thieves from New York or the West that are working in this section.
 In the pocket of one was found SIS, taken from the money draw of the grain store. The men were arranged before the Walth am district court on the charge of breaking and entering and were held in $3, ,O00 each.

Made Another Effort.

KINGSTON, N. F., March 4-Counsel for Matthew T. Trumpbour and James E. Ostrander, the defaulting officials of the Ulster County Savings Institution, made another effort yesterday before Judge Edwards, of Hudson, to secure their release on bail. There was consid- erable argument as to the suficiency of securities offered for Trumpbour, and the court granted the district-attorney bondsman secured is Nathaniel Tomp- kins, of Schoharie county, an uncle of Trumpbour's wife, who wants to justify in $10, 000 Ostrander does not appear to be as fortunate, some of his bondsmen having deserted him.
