THE cOLoNNAS REcoNclLED.
Through the Intercession OF Mackay
They Have Agreed to Reunion.


A dispatch to the San Francisco Exami-
ner says: The trouble in the Colonna
family has been patched up. and the
case OF Colonna VS.. Colonna will not now
come to trial in the divorce courts. The
reconciliation has been accomplished by
the efforts Of John w. Mackay, stepfather
OF the Princess. and is final and COM
nlete adiustme mt of the family difilcui-
lies. The Princess will return to her hus-
hand in June or July, taking her children
with her.
on nis part Prince Colonna has agreed
70 pursue "A course Of conduct more in
accord with the consideration due to
woman and a wife.
The financial affairs OF the famlly are
understood to have been arranged by the
generous and indulg mt stepfather upon
a basis calculated to maintain and SOLID
lfy the newly-established harmony.
The reconciliation has had the some
what reluctant cooperation OF Mrs.
Mackay. though her assistance has been
largely instrumental in bringing II about.
At the time when the rupture became In
evitable. Mrs Mackay took her daugh-
ter's part to tn extent of being extreme
" indignant with COlonna and or freely
expressing 10 that nobeman her sense
OF the ind mites 10 Whlcn ne hau eA
posed his young wife. The decision OF
,hc Princess to leave her husband was
taken only after consultation with her
mother. and the latter's advice has
guided her I'm her subsequent course.
Neverthelts. when the step had been
taken and" the Princess had found safe
refuge in California Mrs. Mackay was
persuaded by the influence OF her hus-
hand to assist in bringing about set
ilement without the scandal OF divorce
nroceedings. Yielding 10 Mr.. Mackays
urgency and sympathlzing with his we'll
known antipathy TO publicity she
brought influences to bear upon the
Colonna family through mutual friends
which induced Colonna 10 listen will

Mr. Mackay. who is stopping at the
Hotel Belgravia, refuses to discuss the

Very Wet Indeed, According to Governor
Tillman.


COLUMBIA, S. c., April Ex-Governor
Tillman to-day publicly expressed himself
for the first time on the Supreme-Court
decision. He confesses that he cannot
solve the problem now puzzling the peo-
nle of the State-whether prohibition ex-
lists. or whether the decision leaves the
gap open for free whiskey. He gives 1t
as his opinion. however. that the de-
cision means free whiskey-the establish
ment of saloons at every crossroads and
street corner. with no law to license.
restrain. or prevent them In anythins
they may do. All he knows Is that the
State cannot sell whiskey. Who can he
does not pretend to say. II prohibition
exists, the Governor says. he has no
means OF enforcing 1t, as the decision
of the Court renders his constabuiary
force useless.
