NEW YORK, Dec. 29.-The story comes
from London that William Waldorf Astor,
whom it was announced recently took the
oath Of allegiance to the British crown,
has become a member of the famous Carl
ton club, and that he is going into Eng
lish politics, with the peerage in view.
If it be true, it opens up new field for
speculation as to the future of the expa-
triated members of the Astor family. The
Carlton club not only is the most exclu-

but it is a political club.

of the Conservative party have their ori-

He chose the Conservative party. and he
turned The Pail Mall Gazette into a sup
porter of that party.
Next he must be in club, and the club
must be the most importnnt Of his party.
He has, according 70 the latest informa-
tion, met this requirement. by breaking
into the Carlton club. Finally he must
stand for parliament.
