LONDON, Dec. 1S.-The celebrated "promis-
sorry note case" brought by Sam Lewis, one Of
the most notorious money lenders In London,
against o young officer Of the guards named
Spencer Clay. which has been on trial before
Lord Chief Justice Russell, was concluded to-
day, the court p~ronounoing Judgment for the
defendant.
The trial Of the case was begun several weeks
ago, and has attracted wide attention in aristo-
cratic circles.
Lewis brought suit to recover eli. lis from
Clay. which was alleged to DO due on two prom
issory notes cashed for Lord William Nevill,
fourth son Of The Marquis of Aber-
gavenny. The notes were Endorsed by
Clay, and Lord Nevill failing to meet
them Clay was sued by Lewis as the maker of
the notes conjointly with Nevill. The action
was tried on Nov. 20 and 80. when the Jury
found that Clay had been induced to indorse
the notes by q fraudulent trick on tho part OF
Lord Nevill, and was again before the Lord
Chief Justice for further consideration on Dec. 4.
It was shown that Eevill had concealed the
face Of the notes and led Clay to believe that he
was merely witnessing Eevil's signature to
Cowley, Nevill's sister.
In pronouncinR final Judgment for tho de-
fendant to-day the Lord Chief Justice said that
the signature obtained from Clay by Nevill was
substantially . forgery.

LONDON, Dec. 1e.-THE SUN announced over
. year ago the betrayal OF Ireland by the aban.
donment Of homo rule as the first plank in tho
Liberal platform. Nobody In England or Scot
land was much excited over this demonstration
Of political perndy. Even Ireland was only
languidly interested, thanks to tho deplorablo
condition whereto tho national movement had
been reduced by insane, internecine strife.
The betrayal was formally oonsummated at
the recent annual caucus Of the Liberal Fedora
tion without o protest. The only excuse for It
10 that given by Mr.. Dillon. tho leader OF tho
section still constituting the majority of Ire
lands Representatives in the British Parlia-
ment. who made . speech at Dublin on Wednes-
day repudiating the alliance with tho Liberals.
Not long ago such o speech would have been re-
ported fully in the British newspapers. Now IL

difference is symptomatic.
