EX-CoNsUL WALTERS CASE

EASONSUL Il w ALlSEh - ShSE.
1t win be an everlasting cause of huinilia
ton If John L. Waller, ex-consul of the
United States and an American citizen, is
permitted to die in French prison. That
such will be his end unless our government
interferes promptly and vigorously is made
clear by recent letters from him to his
wife, In which he tells of his fast failing
health aud expresses the conviction that
they viii not meet again on earth. Mrs.
Waller says there is u hereditary tendency
to consumption in her husbands constitu-
ton and feels sure that 1t will be developed
through the hardships aud privations Of
prison life.
There is every reason for believing that
Mr.. Waller is the victim of somebody's
malice and perchance also of official
stupidity. So far as the American pub
lie has been informed OF the record in his
case no charge has been substantiated which
even in a Justices court would secure his
being held for the action of grand jury.
But Waller was raiiroaded to his prison
by way of a French military court-martial.
the mere fact OF his being a foreigner
being sufficient to cause him to be re-
garded with suspicion by his judges and
become the victim of prejudice. That
he did not get the benefit of any doubt
is moral certainty.
While he is thus lying In his French
dungeon the red tape Of a diplomatic in
vestigation of his case has been slowly un-
winding itself. Letters have passed be-
tween foreign office and ambassador and
State Department, but SO far Waller is
no nearer regaining his liberty than he was
at the start. 1t is reported that Secretary
oluey is going TO pursue more vigorous
course aud viii insist that the French
government shall take prompt action in
determining the merits OF the case.
There is no disposition TO accept the
offer of France to release Waller as an
act OF courtesy to the United States. There
should not be, for it is not favor that is
craved, but justice that is demanded.

Nothing Succeeds Like Success

The success of the Speer N. ]. Wine
Co. in producing an extra quality of Grape
Brandy is marvellous. They rely alone on
the grape for body and flavor, and herce
there is wide and growing demand for
this Brandy which rivals the old brands of
Cognac, France.
Nothing is finer OF richer than specr's
Old Climax Brandy and his Old Port,
five to fifteen years old. For table use
their Clarets, Sauterncs, BurgundIes, and
P. j. Sherry are unsurpassed. For the

poses, their q Unfermented Grape Juice

DUNRANEN 4 CAD.

As was TO be expected, Lord Dunraven's
publication in Field, a synopsis of which.
cablcd from London, was published yester-
day morning in The Times, has raised a
storm of indignation, not only among the
members of the New York Yacht Club, who
are more directly concerned, but among the
American public generally. It is anattack
upon and an insult to all. 1t is a labored
attempt to excuse his failure to get the
cup and his own unsportsmanlikc conduct
by imputing dishonest practices to men
known for fair dealing. 1t proves that
Dunravcn is not only no sportsman but
likewise lacks the elementary attributes
of a gentleman.
There may have been fairly good rea son
for Lord Duuravcn's complaint about the
course being unduly crowded by excursion
boats, though even in this particular the
yaIkyrie was no worse off than the De-
fender But even had it been all as he
represents, 1t did not constitute valid
cause for his abrupt withdrawal from the
race. When that was done, people began
to doubt that he had the true sportsman's
''sand in his craw." That action, how
ever, was positive courtesy as compared
with his latest performance.
The most charitable view to take of
Dunraven's last epistolary effusion is TO
regard it as the emanation Of q weakened
brain, because no man in his sound senses
would have so far forgotten himself as
to charge men like Vanderbilt, Iselin and
Morgan with being guilty or cognizant of
practices that would shame professional
crook. He has hurled a boomerang, and
none but he Will be hurt by his cowardiy
meanness. 1t will react upon him no less
in England than on this side of the water.
Exit Dunraven.

The Fomous Jepness Miller Shoes.

OF course, the fashionable world knows
that Crocker, on the Avenue, near Tenth
street, has the sole agency for the Dalton
Shoe CopIpany's Jenness Miller Shoe. When
Mrs. Jenness Miller took up the question
of women's dress reform, she studied the
subject of rational footwear. She had
a special model last made, on scientifically
hygienic principles. The last was made
to resemble a human foot as it is, not
as it should be, according to the old
fashioned shocmaker's notions. The
result was a shoe that does not cramp or
distort the foot, but fits it like natural
covering-it is delightfully."- comfortable,
looks well and out wears any ordinary shoe.

WILL RELEASE WALLER
France Ready to Do So as an Act
Of GraCiousness.
WOULD PREVENT INDEMNITY
cept the Offer on That Account.
Prisoner Himself Not Thought to
he willing TO Accept Freedom on
Such Terms.

Secretary olney has received an iniiIna-
ton of the Willingness of France TO release
John L. Waller from prison as an act OF
graciousuess to the United States, but US
au acceptance OF this offer might prevent
this government from subsequently Ce-
Inanding an indemnity for his imprison-
Inent, a condition to which Waller, IL is
understood. does not agree. the prospects
are that tedious diplomatic negotiations
are the last resource.
Crammond Kennedy and John nj. Langs-
ton, Waller's attorneys, had conference
with Mrs. Waller aud her son, Pane Bray.
yesterday, because OF the alarm felt by
Mrs. Waller on account of a letter she re-
ceived from her husband yesterday in
which he made Gllusions to domestic af-
fairs involving Mrs. Walters welfare,
which to the attorneys only indicate that
he knew he could not very soon be re-
leased aud was very anxious that his
Wife should not suffer deprivation in the
inca ntime.
WALLER'S CHIEF CARE.
He had learned that his family were alb
soluteiy destitute, depending wholly upon
friends for their sustenaDce and as he hiiii-
self would leave prison. If he ever did. with
out a cent in the world his tone was
naturally respondent. The attorneys in
the case and Mrs. Waller and her son fully
agree that IL would be uuwise to sacri-
flee the chances for indemnity at present
in order to secure Waller's release, as he
was undoubtedly well fed, clothed and
housed in the best of French military
establishments, where even in case of ILL
ness he was provided with better medical
attendance than he could hope to secure
outside.
Mrs. Waller was convinced that the
French government would spare no eX-
pense TO maintain him in good health
and concluded that If he were really
as i'll rs she imagined, could not stand
the ocean voyage home and would there
fore be stranded and ill among strangers.
So she very wisely concluded TO trust the
matter entirely to Secretary Olney and
Amba ssador Eustis, In both of whom she
imposes the fullest confidence.
TWO COURSES OPEN.
As she understands it the two ques-
tions now under consid era tion by the
State Department are whether it will
be possible 10 accept Frances offer of
Walters release as an act of grace and
continue the matter of indemnity for
subsequent negotiation or whether all
the facts justify the United States in per-
emptorily demanding indemnity and re-
lease simultaneously.
1t is known that the State Department
is not at all satisfied yet that Waller has
valid ground for an indemnity some of
the evidence on the subject being ex-
tremely conflicting

House OF BguRBOH'S CHIEF

Latter Rapidly Losing Friends, While
Bourbon Adnerents Bow Low
Before the Former.

The Duke of Orleans appears to be as lit
tie able to retain the devotion OF his fol-
lowers and adherents as his father, the
late Comte de Paris. He has quarreled with
the most faithful and selfsacrificing OF his
friends. the Due de Luynes, in such man
ner that the latter has transferred his allie
glance to Don Carlos, who, to the aston
lshment of everybody, has been staying
at the historic castle OF Dampierre the
guest of the young duke.

1t is only necessary to see the sans

great mobiles of France approach the Duke
OF Orleans. compared with the profound re-
spect which they manifest toward Don
Carlos, bowing lOw-as do also the Span
ish grandees-to kiss his hand when ad-
mitted TO this honor. The Emperor OF Aus
tria treats him as member OF the imperial
family. and royal honors are likewise ac-
corded to him at Venice, where he lives part
of the year.

-MarQu,se de Fontenoy. Ia Chicago Record.
The morning times., 1895-11-10

Don Carlos, having now lived down the
iEdiscretiOns OF youth, has become a very
important parsonage. There is no doubt
about his royalty, whereas there is a great
deal a bout that OF the Due d Orleans whose
claim 10 the predicate of royal highness'
many of the Europea courts refuse Ia con-
cede. since neither his father nor grand
father ever occupied a throne, while his
eat-grandfather, King Louis Philippe.
was regarded by most foreign governments,
and especially by the cour; of st. Peters
burg, as usurper.
The morning times., 1895-11-10

Don Carlos is the most serious rival with
whom the Due d'Orleans has to contend.
In the first place Don Carlos is undoubtedly
the chief and head of the royal house OF
Bourbon, the Due d'Orleans merely repre-
seniing one OF the Junior branches far more
remote from the last French King than Don
Carlos.
This was recog nized at the funeral Of
Henry v, who reigned bat for day in $50,
after the abdication of his grandfather,
King Charles Y, and who died as Comte
de Chanbord. For Don Carlos was ac-
corded precedence over the Conlte de Paris
and his uncles, even the Duke OF Parma
and the ex-King of Naples preceding them
monarch.
The morning times., 1895-11-10

that he needed younger men, such as the
Due de Luynes and others OF the same age
to execute his policy and to advise him
about the monarch list ca use.
The morning times., 1895-11-10

OF course, the Duke of Orleans contests
this assumption on the part of Don Carlos
I and claims to be the head of the house of
Bourbon, though on what ground it is diff
cult to perceive, and much bitter feeling
exists between the two.
Then, too, Don Carlos considers that he
has an infinitely better claim on the throne
of France than the Due d'Orleans, and
in this view he is supported by all the
ultra legitimists of the monarchical party
in France. Hitherto his party has been
| known by thename of the Blancs d 'Espa gne,
because the standard under which they
| are fighting is the historic white one
| adorned with gold lilies.
All the most illustrious members of the
| French aristocracy favor the pretensions OF
Don Carlos IN preference to those of the
Due d Orleans. Until now the militant sec
| ton of the monarchist party has been ar
rayed under the tricolor banner of the
Due d orlea ms, the young Due de Luynes, De
Brissac, d Uzes and De Maille having
made it point of honor 70 perform the
duties of chanberlains and lords-in-waiting

The latter. however. is so difficult to get

| from him, the Due de Luynes being the last.
\ hisrupture with the pretender being rendered
| all the more sensational by the species OF
state visit which Don Carlos has just been
paying at Dampierre.
What precipitated the quarrel between the
| two whilom huns was probably the revela-
| tions of the Comte d'Haussonville. At the
time OF the Comte de Paris death the Due
d'Orleans, without any regard for the Comte
d,Haussonville's services as principal lieu
| tenant of his father. and the latter's chief
representative in France. eoolly dismissed
him from his unpaid post with the remark
The morning times., 1895-11-10

The Comre de Paris was never salts
fed with what was being done for him, es-
pecialiy IN money matters. He always
wanted more, expecting the dukes" as
he called them, TO find all the necessary
resources, while he kept mis- pockets tight
ly buttoned; as, for instance, when he per-
mltted the Dowager Duchesse d'UZes TO
donate S,0O0,OOO francs to the Boulan-
gist fund for the promotion OF his cause
and in his name, while he himself refused
to contribute a single cent.
This was bad enough, in all conscience,
but TO learn now from the COmte dHaus-
sonville's revelations that not only was the
Comte de Paris inarpreciative OF what
they were doing for him, but that he was
actually denouncing them for not doing
more TO further his pretensions. has nat
urally had the effect of disgusting them
with the hopeless cause of the house of
Orleans.
