Report that He Has Secured Control
of the Northern Pacific.

ST. PAUL, April A.-The Dispatch this
afternoon published the following: Henry
Willard has again secured control of the
Northern Pacific. 1t is openly stated in this
connection that the deal has been completed
and that the famous financier has come to
this country for the purpose of making
arrangements to wind up the receiyership
and assume the direction of the property
This, it is said, has been accomplished
through the efforts of the Deutsche Bank
of Berlin, which has been Wizards hacker
ever since his connection with the Northern
Pacific began. Twice has he enjoyed con-
troll of the road, once at its beginning and
once later, and each time, it seems he has
had the American stockholders to contend
with in his efforts to look after the inter-
ests of the bondholders, who are repre-
sented by the Deutsche Bank. The stock
holders have invariably carried the day.
for the time being at least, and Willard
has been ousted from power The last time.
however, the ousting was followed in no
great length by the receivership, so that
the stockholders did not gain any yerv

QUEENsBERRY'S THIRD son.
Jailed i'm California to Prevent Him
: Marrying Waitress.

ST. LOUIS, April 24-The Globe-Demo-
Gratis Bakersfield correspondent says con-
cerning the escapade of Lord Sholto Doug
lass, mentioned in yesterdays dispatches:
There is more trouble in store for the Mar
quis of Queensberry, who has figured in the
Oscar Wilde expose. He now will have to
bear with the acts of Lord Sholto Douglass,
his third son. Lord Sholto was arrested to-
day at the instance of several of his
friends, who declare he lis insane This is
thought to be a ruse TO prevent him mar
rying a girl of whom he is desperately
enamored. Several months ago Lord Sholto
came here to look after a forty-acre fruit
ranch which his mother had bought. The
Logan agent of Higgin & Tevis, the mil
Iionaire land owners who are developing
the rich part of the San Joaquin valley,
showed young Douglass over the whole
country and introduced him to several rich
Englishmen who have fine ranches near
town. Lord Sholto seemed to be favorably
impressed from glowing accounts of the
place. Bakersfield has sixty saloons and
dozen disorderly houses, though it has only
5000 inhahitants. Lord Sholto frequently
visited one of these saloons. where he met
a pretty waitress named Loceta Adds, and
fell in love with her. He importuned this
girl to marry him. and yesterday amazed
his friends by applying for license to
marry her. when this was learned one
of his friends swore out a warrant for

rage. and there is no question as to his
sanity.

AN ANSWER AT LAST
SPAIN FINALLY REPLIES TO SECRE-
TARY GRESHAM's DISPATCH.
Minister Taylor Reports that the Cap
tain of the War Ship That Fired ON
the AlIianca VIII BE Tried.

WASHINGTON, April "a. = Secretary
Gresham has received dispatch from Mr..
Hannis Taylor, United States minister at
Madrid, assuring him that Spain would
accede to the demands of the United States
in the Allianca affair, and that the captain
of the 'Conde de Venadito would be put on
trial for his offense in firing at an Amer
lean vessel outside the zone. The tone of
the dispatch is such that the State De-
partn.ent feels that it's course will be alb
solutely vindicated by the result.
One of the principal missions with which
Senior De LONE, the new minister of Spain
to the United States. was charged was the
investigation of the complaint made by
Captain Crossman, of the Allianca, that a
Spanish gunboat had hailed him and then
had fired across his bow. Partly for the
purpose of investigating the affair the new
minister proceeded to Havana instead of
coming direct to the United States, and 1t
is presumed that his report influenced the
action of the Spanish government.
NEW YORK, April A.-The Spanish
steamer Panama arrived at quarantine at
$50 p. m Among the passengers is M.
Dupuy De LONE, the Spanish minister to
Washington He said: .The excitement
caused by the troubles in Cuba is dying out.
Captain General Martinez De Campos will
arrive in Havana I'm few days after his
return from the affected districts where he
is visiting to suppress any disorders that
may arise. The alleged insurrection is con-
