A cause of fresh troubles between
Prince and Princess COlonna is the
fact during the princess visit to Lon

at that time. The princess has now
three children. two sons and daugn-

STRONG CONSERVATIVE FEEL

In Some Directions Advance in
Prices Checks Future Business

New York, Aug. 31.-R. 6. Dun's re-

strong conservative feeling is finding
expression, not as yet controlling mar

against a too rapid expansion and rise.
In some directions the advance in

SULTAN COMPLAINS.
Protests Against the Attitude of Eng
land in Regard to Armenia.

London, Sept. lit is reported from
Constantinople that the porte has
made complaint to France and Russia
against the attitude of England on the
Aremnian question. A further dis
patch from Constantinople adds that
the dispatch sent by the sultan to
the French and Russian diplomats bit
terly complains that Great Britain's
discourteous and unseemly attitude
is derogatory to the prestige Of the
sultan. He therefore appeals to Rus
STA and France to use their good Of
fees to induce Great Britain to modi-
fly her attitude. The replies of the
Russian and French representatives,
however. do not favor Turkeys con-
tention to give the sultan any en-
coura cement.

before the end of their first year OF
married life the princes passion for
gambling asserted itself extensively
and was one of the causes of the un-
happiness which began to show itself
in their relations. At that time his
wife was called upon to spend large
sums to satisfy his gambling debts,
and in the course of a short time her
income and savings were exhausted.
At that time Mrs. Mackay is said to
have given her daughter 100000
francs, but the princes gambling and
expensive habits of life increased at
a rate which the Mackays felt they
were not called upon to support.
