London, July 10.-some very foolish and abs,re
statements I'm connection with the royal wedding
have been going the round Of the papers. One
exceptionally silly fiction Is the tale that the Queen
has provided in substantial manner fer keeping up the
household OF tho Duke and Duchess OF York who, more
over will be free TO suites Of rooms in various
naIaces. There Is no truth in this story. 1t is no
mart Of the Queens business TO provide for the Duke
and Duchess Of York whose household will be SUM-
GENTLY kept up income OF t22ooo year, which
Il is said they are to receive out OF the annual Par
romcntary grant OF s?6,OOO year for the children
| of the Prince and Princess OF Wales. The Duke and
Duchess are to live at stsJamess Palace when In
town. and the villa sandrngham Is TO be their usual
residence In the country. The paragraph which
OF. einated with romancng American journal, and
which has been extensively copied by our papers,
states that the Prince Consorts life Insured for
IL million sterling which the Queen has now In her
posseson and her life again Is insured very largely
for the benefit Of her younger Children notably
Princess Beatrice. This Is farrago OF nonsense.
The I,ince Con,ois life not insured for farthinG
nor is the Queens, except far as 1t Is Insured BY
ocrsos who have put Her Majestys life In leases and
nth.r outside spectators. 1t Is also utterly untrue
that the Emperor Frcderlcks life was insured for
100000.

the expenses o members OF the Royal Family are
paid by the Treasury. or course this Is all rubbish.
The Queen pays her expenses, which average
60 900 year for home Journeys alone, and the Royal
Family pay their fares just like ordinary passengers.

he has been commanding the local forces for some
time past. The Trinidad Government Is pursuing
policy OF rigid economy Just and II Is uncertain
whether Colonel Mar will return TO his post. Judging
by the way In which he IS spoken OF by the local
press this able and distinguished soldiers loss TO the
colony would be irrepaable; but the Colonial Office
Is not likely to allow him to remain long idle. For
men OF his stamp not common that they can

MR.. DILLON AND MR.. CHAMBERLAIN.
A very strong impression has been made on the

OF the Ministry.
