BEFORE THE PUBLIC.
Latest Bid for Notoriety by Two
Queer Englishmen.
MARQUIS OF QUEEHSBERY AND WILDE

a PugEIistfe Patron and an Apostle OF
AEsthoticlsm ut LOggerheads-The1r
Peculiar Public Career.
LONDON, March lit would be hard
to find two more notorious men than
Oscar Wilde and the Marquis of Queens
berry, whose differences as you have
no doubt been informed by cable, have
just eliminated in a suit for libel
brought by Wilde. The present compli-
cation viii no doubt add to their notori-
ETY., if such thing be possible.
Although the marquis is best known
to the wcrld at large because of the IA
nous pugilistic rules that bear his
name, he is identified in the minds of
Londoners with all sorts of queer things.
About two years ago he became SO en-
ragged at Lord Rosebery, the present
premier, but then a member of Mr..
Gladstone's cabinet, as to threaten vio-
lent retaliation upon the noble score
tary's person. The cause of Queensber-
RVS anger was the action of Rosebery in
creating Queensberry' son, till then
only Viscount Drumlanrig-the holder
of a courtesy title merely-an earl,
thus making him outrank his father
and emitting him to seat in the house
of lords. Until 1880 the marquis him
self had place in the upper house as
representative Scottish peer, but he then
announced himself free thinker, and
that shut him out. When Rosebery was
made member of Gladstone's cabinet,
one of his first actions was to choose for
his secretary the son of the sporting
marquis The secretary suited SO we'll
that he was shortly made the Earl of
Drumlanrig. Queensberry began at once
to write letters to Rosebery, the queen,
Gladstone and every one else he could
think of as possibly having something
to say in the premises. His failure to
receive replies to any of his letters
caused him to declare that he knew
lot of awful facts in the biography of
Rosebery, which he proposed to show
up, adding that if an assault were nee
essary in order to draw attention to the
Showing up he was quite prepared
to,compit that assault. -
Lord Rosebery failed to pay any at
tention to Queensberry' threats, SO far
as the public knows, and in due time
the matter died out. There are plenty
of persons who think similarly silent
course OF the part of Oscar Wilde when
an offensive card was sent to him by
the MARQUIS of the prize ring would

LEAVES CHASE POWER.
HIr. Waters Says Azarkum Declines, So
Nothing Can BE Done.

HIr. Waters Says EZarkum Declines. So
Nothing Can BE Done.
Joseph G. Waters. the attorney for
Warden Chase, in the penitentiary
trouble. says that Deputy Markum, who
was instructed TO act as warden upon the
suspension of Chase, has refused to act,
and there is nothing the governor can
do now than to allow Chase to remain
until the investigation has been com
pleted. Mr.. Waters also says his client
is not afraid of an investigation, as some
reports have said. To JOURNAL report
er Mr.. Waters said:
"On Friday last Sheriff Peterson of
Wyandotte county handed Warden
Chase the order of suspension from the
governor, and also handed Deputy
Warden Markum the order of the gov
ernor appointing him acting warden.
This was the entire transaction. Warden
Chase was not in hiding and the door was
wide open.
1.-THE sensational matter that Sheriff
Peterson had accomplished great piece
of strategy by cunning and artifice is I'M
true On Saturday the deputy warden
sent very courteous and gentlemanly
note to the governor informing him that
he could not possibly accept the appoint
ment, and which leaves Warden Chase,
from necessity, the actual warden IN
charge, with no power in the governor
to move further toward suspending
Chase until he is finally dealt with by
this investigating committee.
sThe statement in q recent issue of
the JOURNAL that Warden Chase was
willing to hand in his resignation to IS
cape Investigation is incorrect.
.sThese are the very charges he openly
challenged to investigation, and waived
the formality of written charges, and
expressly told the committee they could
bring in any street rumers against him
and try him for that"

MEXICO'S BOON.
It Is Accelerated by the Advance in the
Price of Silver.


MEXICO CITY, March 25.-The improve
ment il the price of silver greatly stimu-
lated the buying of foreign exchanges
during the week and many large transac-
tons have been made by the banks on
the United States and other foreign coun-
tries, the appearances being that ex-
change will continue to go down.
There is probability that the great
plethora of $16,O00,000 in Mexican silver
now lying in the banks of this capital
without use will be relieved by loans So
licited and that decided stimulus will
be given foreign trade generally. The
feeling in Mexico is much better than
some weeks age, and already the outlook
for largely increased foreign trade is
good.

TO INVENTORS.

If you have made an invention you want a
patent And you want a good one. There are
various kinds OF patents. Some Of them are
not worth keeping around the house. They
don't protect. 1t is as unsafe to trust to them
as to a lightning rod without ground con-
nection. That is the kind an inventor is like
ly to get when he draws up his own specifca-
tionS or trusts the work to an irresponsible
attorney. 1t is not the kind dealt in by the
Press Claims Company.
