considerations after talking with

AN AMERICAN WANTS TO MARRY AN
ENGLISH PRINCESS.
A London dispatch of the 25th
ult. comments on the abuse heaped
on Lord Rosebery, ex Premier, in
connection with his resignation of
the Liberal leadership, by the
Pail Mall Gazette. That paper is
owned by William Waldorf Astor,
an American Crnsus who lives in
London. The dispatch says:
This strange course of the
American multi go millionaire's
newspaper has created much com.
ment here, and is attributed very
generally, not so much to political
considerations as to causes of O
more intimate and romantic char
acter The fact is that people
here see in Lord Rosebery a very
dangerous rival to William Wal
dorf Astor's pretensions to the
hand of Princess Victoria of
Wales, and regard the attack of
the Pail Mall Gazette upon the
Earl as part of the contest be
tween the Aston millions on one
side and the Rothschild millions
on the other for the heart of the
only unmarried daughter of the
British heir-apparent."
The dispatch relates gossip to
the effect that Lord Rosebery's
virtual withdrawal from the arena
of political life is for the purpose
of pressing his suit at the expense
of Mr.. Astor. $50 long as he
was Il political leader, the head of
one of the great national parties,
it was obvious that neither the
Queen nor the Prince of Wales
could in any way countenance his
matrimonial project. They are
coustitutionally bound to show no
preference for any political party.
The action of the Marquis of
Lorne in standing for Parliament
has been a source Of no end of an
noyauce to his august mother-in-
law aud to the brothers and Sis
ters of his royal wife"
1t is further reported that the
Prince of Wales is enormously
indebted both to the Rothschilds
and to Mr.. Aston. The latter is
said to have come to the Princes
rescue when the executors of
Baron Hirsch made demand up
on his royal hig hness for the i'm
mediate return of the huge sums
loaned to him by the dead Baron.
On the other hand, for many years
the Rothschilds permitted the
Prince to draw freely against
them, finding their reward in his
successful efforts to gain them adj
mission to inner circles of Eng
lish society and the English great
world. Some years ago, however,
they called a halt and secured
themselves by taking out insur-
ance policies to an enormous
amount upon his life, sufficient
indeed to cover the entire amount
of his indebtedness, which is as
serted to be S8,000,000 or $4,000.
