Watson was seen today at his Office in Glas-
gov. He absolutely declined to express any
view on Lord Dunravens charges. He made
the rather significant statement, in reply to
the question that he had no intention Of
going to America to testify to what he saw,
even were he asked by the New York Yacht
club and Lord Dunraven to do so; he could
not spare time. Tankersvlle Chamberlane,
whose fathers yacht Arrow was the last
British holder osAmerica's cup, answering an
inquiry from the World, thinks "it would be
a graceful concession on the part of the New
York Yacht club If 1t allowed Lord Dunraven
to be represented on the special committee,
as showing a desire to not leave the matter
entirely to those whose feelings naturally
are excited by his accusations. This accusa-
ton, If proved, would be a reflection on the
club generally, and the committee being
supposed member of the club, it would be
unsatisfactory, If the decision were left en-
tirely to It, To have allowed the delay in
investigating Lord Dunraven's charge was
fatal mistake. 1t seems to me just as If a
policeman meeting man suspected of having
in his possession stolen goods were to allow
him to go away for few hours, and then re-
turn and be searched"
HEALY KEEPS THINGS MOVING.
The World hears that the positive state
ment that Tim Healy proposes to establish
daily paper in Dublin to promote his polti-
cal interests against nationalist majority was
expressly denied by Mr.. Healy himself at a
recent private meeting Of the party, when
he repudiated all intention to start either
newspaper or a new party, but though he
expressed formal submission to the will
of the majority, it is apparent the in
ternecne strife of the McCarthyite party
10 only scotched, not killed, by his expulsion
from its governing committee. The Weekly
Irish Catholic, which is admittedly inspired
by Mr.. Healy, publishes today a list of twenty
members Of the party who are fatty charged
with voting against Mr.. Healy, solely be-
cause dependent on party salaries. This ac-
cusation of gross corruption aroused intense
indignation among the majority and the
Dublin Freeman says If Mr.. Healy dared
make over his name the accusation fulmi-
mated anonymously in his paper 1t would
warrant his instant expulsion from the party
altogether. 1t further points out that Mr..
Healy's most active supporters during the
last three years include Arthur O'Connor, T.
D. Sullivan, who get f4O0 and $500 year,
respectively, from the funds being the largest
allowances made to any members, and that
the majority Of Mr.. Healy's supporters al
though dependent on the same funds, have
never suffered for aiding him to disrupt the
party, and destroy its sources of pecuniary
foro af,,.i
leaders express themselves entirely satisfied
that the expulsion of Mr.. Healy is thoroughly
approved by the vast bulk of national senti-
ment in Ireland and America; in fact the
only complaints they have received are for
not expellng him from the party altogether.
MUNKACSY'S NEW POST
The offer by the Hungarian government to
the artist Munkacsy of the post of inspector
of fine arts for the kingdom with a salary
equal to that of a cabinet minister is worthy
of note. The Hungarian nation having de-
stroyed every vestige of its earlier art, save
the beautiful church at Funfkrchen and
few things in Pennsylvania, had determined
to create brand new art of its own On
the banks of the Danube there is rising
government palace which comprises within
itself all the beauties of st. Peters, the
Kremlin, the houses Of Parliament, the
Chinese pagoda, in fact which eventually
will embody all the architectural features of
the whole world. To decorate this the in
genious Munkacsy has been called in, and
he has produced picture which has cost
more than any pant-stained canvas that was
ever made.
