Queen Victoria is said to be getting

her mental powers are absolutely unim-

late repeatedly expressed her opinion
that the poorer princes of the younger
branches of the royal house Of Eng
land ought to marry into the wealthy
aristocracy of Great Britain as Prince
Adolphus of Teck has just DONE
This young man has certainly done q
wise thing by choosing as his wife the
daughter of the Duke of Westminster,
the richest peer in England. Few peo-
pie outside the two families and the
lawyers are likely to possess trustworthy
information respecting the settlements
in this match, but rumor has it that the
duke has provided dowry Of $500, 900
besides settling $25, 900 year upon the
young couple. 1t may be said with alb
solute certainty that the prince has
brought nothing into the settlement be-
yond life insurance policies and posi-
bly, few thousands provided by the
queen, with whom he is deservedly a
great favorite
It is no disgrace to the Duke of Teck
to say that he lives we'll up to and prob
ably considerably beyond his income,

Demand Made on the Republic
of Nicaragua
MONEY AND NO DIPLOMACY
Affairs in the Republic Beginning to
Look Serious
No Official News ObtainabIe In Washington.
Work Of the Special Envoy from.
the Republic

Managua, Nicaragua, March 1S.-The
British Government, through its Minis
ter here, has submitted an ultimatum to
Nicaragua. 1t demands a cash indemnity
of els, 900 as smart money to pay for the
expulsion of Mr.. Hatch, British Consular
Agent, during the troubles Of last year,
and also for the appointment OF COM
mission to investigate the damages sus-
tanned by the persons and property of
British subjects who were expelled from
the Mosquito reservation about the same
time. BY the terms of the ultimatum
Great Britain is to name one of the COM
missioners and Nicaragua another, and
these two are to choose a third, who shall
not be citizen of the United States. 1t
was also made known that British war
ship is now on her way to Nicaragua to
enforce these demands, which must be
complied with within seven weeks from
the 25th of February last, the date OF the
ultimatum.
Washington, March 1s.-It is impossi-
BILE to learn positively whether the State
Department has been advised officially of
the severe demands made upon Nicaragua
by Great Britain but from the fact that
General Barrios, who was appointed by
Nicaragua to endeavor to settle the diff
Guilty. has recently paid several visits to
the State Department in with DIR,
Guzman, the resident Mica aguan
minister, it is assumed that our own gov
eminent is fully posted in regard to the
matter.
1t cannot be denied that this new Incl
dent, taken in connection with the hos
tile attitude of Great Britain towards
Venezuela, promises to lead to trouble of
a character much more serious than the
incident of the Alliance. There are ques-
tons of indemnity arising in Venezuela,
growing out of claims preferred by other
European nations.
Many of the claims grow out of the
failure of these republics to meet their
obligations to foreign debtors under the
stress of hard times and the influence of
the worldwide depression in trade. AS
the European Governments appear to be
moving to collect these individual debts
on their own account. it is question
that the United States must speedily set
tie as to how far it is prepared to permit
this process to go on. Besides there is a
rather disagreeable reflection upon Amer
lean citizens in the disputation that none
shall serve ON the commission to adjudge
the damage. On the whole, it is probable
the President will interfere to secure at
least an amelioration of the terms of the
ultimatum by an appeal to the British
Government, representing the great hard
ship that it would work to Nicaragua I'M
der her present depressed condition to
prefer demand for so large an indem-
nifty.

Proclamation to Be Issued by
Secretary Smith
RESERVATION TO BE OPENED
A Case Remanded to the Circuit Court
if Inconsistent
Congress Is at Liberty to Give or Withhold
Pensions--A Declaration that
Is Incidental

Washington, March Is. --Secretary Smith
says that it is probable that proclama-
tons will not be issued opening any lands
within the next three weeks.
The proclamations that have been pre-
pared for opening the Yankton rese1vs-
ton in South Dakota, and the Siletz
reservation in Oregon, provide that within
thirty days after being issued the lands
shall be opened. The weather would not
be propitous for land opening thirty days
hence, and SO change the wrongful into
rightful possessor
The case was remandcd to the Circuit
Court for proceedings not inconsistent
with the opinion.
An interesting opinion upon the status
OF pensions was delivered by Justice
Brewer,
Congress being at liberty to give or
withhold pensions" said the Justice
may prescribe who shall receive and de-
termine all the circumstances and condi-
lions under which any application there
for shall be prosecuted. No man has legal
right to interfere in the matter of obtain
ing pensions for himself or others. The
whole control of the matter is within the
domain of congressional power
This declaration was incidental to the
courts opinion upon the appeal of Henry
n. frisby, who was convicted and sen-
fenced to three months Imprisonment by
the Circuit Court in Louisiana, and an
indictment charging shat he demanded a
greater sum than $40 for his prosecuting a
claim, in violation of the act of June D.
1890, which placed that limit upon the
attorneys fees.
The Justice said: at is within the I'M
doubted power of the government to re-
strain some individuals from some con-
tracts, and referred to contracts for the
purchase or sale of lottery tickets in that
connection. After stating that pension
granted by the government is matter of
bounty, that no pensioner had a vested
legal right to his pension, that Congress
had the right to give, withhold. distribute
or recall them, Justice Brewer said:
Having power to legislate on this
whole matter, to prescribe the condition
under which parties may assist in pro-
curing pensions, it has the equal power
TO enforce by penal provisions in compli-
ance with its requirements. There can
be no reasonable question of the constitu-
tionality of the statute" The conviction
was sustained
