Mackay lives here, and so do the American ambassador and other influential folk.
 Another woman who is greatly courted for her political power Is Lily, Lady Beres- ford, who controls the votes of the Deep dene country and who is now, since her recent great ball to the tenantry, very powerful. Past her forty-eighth year, still in the height of her beauty, she is perhaps stronger today in England than ever be- fore. The fact that Queen Victoria sent for her to come and make social visit a few days ago has quite strengthened the be- lief that her majesty is resolved to honor her husband in some hitherto unsuspected way in the Soudan.

Her influence in eager ly sought, and it is said that is was to se- cure her personal influence that she was persuaded to come to London for the fall season.
 Close to the seat of honor, if not directly in It. would be Lady Curzon, of Kedleston. She now is, thanks to the recent generos- ity of her father, Levi K. Letter, of Chi cago, the owner of the corner property in Carlton House Terrace. This is the fam ous millionaire row of London, and the possession of home in this Terrace means

A letter from London intimates that a most remarkable dinner will be given dur ing the present reason. London, as every one knows. has two seasons. The first or social season begins in the late spring and ends in our summer; the second or poiit- ical season commences in October and lasts until Christmas. During this late season political plots will be matched and political plans matured.
 This dinner which is scheduled as distinc- lively political will be given by a host whose guests are the strongest politicians ever seated around the board. Covers, if rumor Is to be believed, are to be laid for twenty guests, and at each plate there will repose an immense bunch of American Beauty roses, tied with streamers of red, white and blue ribbon-showing that the guests are to be all of the fair sex, and Americans at that.
 The dinner, which is to be given by one of the highest earls of England, is to be, nominally, in honor of the titled American women of the United Kingdom, but really, it Is to secure their political patronage and their indirect vote.
 The recent accessions to the ranks of British nobility in the persons of the Hon. Mrs. Harold Barring and the Hon. Mrs. Dayrell Crakanthrope, both of whom will some day wear titles and who are now not without their political influence, has so swollen the list of titled Americans that the attempt to ''get along" as we Yankees would say, politically, without them, would be quite like giving a representation of Hamlet without the melancholy Dane. AL though is the home of the strong minded woman it is England who really possesses her. We have not woman in this country who has mounted the stump many times as Lady Randolph Churchill nor one who has done the buttonholing accorded to Lady Leyland-Jennie Chamberlain, of Cleveland.
 If the dinner comes off, and there Is no reason why 1t should not. for the peer is influential, who will sit behind the great punches of roses?
 England places our little Consuelo, who, by the way, is just twenty-one years old,
The age-herald., 1898-11-06

Lily to all her former prestige in London. Other women who are to be present at the banquet are Lady Craven, who had the option of becoming lady of the queens court two years ago, Lady Denman, for merly of California, who is chum of the Princess Christian, and Lady Essex, who is the leader of the very well dressed set 1 in London society.
 Then there is among the pretty women Lady Terrence Blackwood, who is now in Cadogan Square. ready to give some won derful entertainments this winter. Not withstanding the denials from the family. the beautiful Mrs. Samuel Colgate is sched- uled to be the Countess of Strafford, and will wield the political sceptre with no lit- tie power.
 The three Randolph sisters with Lady Randolph Churchill as the most influential, are conspicuous in English politics, and 1t is said that they control the vast issues of the famous Primrose league.
 Mrs. Joseph Chamberlain, who is always reckoned with the titled American women, probably because her husband has many times refused title, thus showing that she could wear a coronet if she chose, will be there; and so also the Hon. Mrs. Arthur Paget, who is a strong political factor among the older politicians.
 Other seats around the board can be oc- cupleQ Dy Lduy WOlSeley, WHO was Anlta Playfair, who was Miss Edith Russell. of Boston; Lady Evans, who was Miss Ste- phens, of Albany, and Lady Abinger, who was Miss Helen Macgruder, of the south. The two last have done a great deal of po- litica1 work, especially Lady Evans, who created a sensation twenty years ago by platform during her husbands canvass. She was the first woman in England to wear a tailor made suit, and her appear ance upon the platform created general sensation, which resulted in her husbands triumphant election.
 Lady Fermor- Hesketh, who was Miss Florence Sharon, daughter of the late Sem ator sharon of Nevada, is a close friend of the Princess of Wales, and has been often asked to use her influence in Marl- borough House. Another woman Is Mrs. Cavendish- -Bentinck, who might have mar ried a title, and who is very strong with the conservatives.
 Should the peer decide to extend the list of American women who have done polit- ical service in England, he would have to include great many not mentioned here, and were he to win all here named to his cause, he would find himself highly sue cessful in his political ambition, for they control the majority of English votes.
 It may be mentioned, by the way, that the ambition of this earl is said to be no less a thing than the establishment of a viceroyship in the Soudan, to which he hopes to be appointed viceroy.

REDUCTION IN THE NAVY.
Old Monitors Will Be Retired as Soon
as Peace Comes.

Washington, Aug. 10.-Naval officers
have made up their mind that peace is
at hand and are planning for reduction
Of the naval establishments to a peace
basis. The first step to be taken is the
retirement of the monitors from active
service. They are an uncomfortable
craft and afford little opportunity for
general training. Another matter is
the promotions to be accorded officers
who distinguished themselves during
hostilities. A step was made in this direc-
ton today by the submission to the
president Of recommendations by the
secretary of the navy for the advance
ment Of all the officers Of SIMPSONS
fleet who distinguished themselves.
Merritt's force in the Philippines is
to be increased by 1000 troops now at

peace. 1t was intimated what remain
ed to be accomplished was purely for
NAL in character, and no doubt was en-
tertained the signatures required
would be attached in due time. What
that due time was was not explained.
but it was fully understood it meant
such delay as would be required for a
careful preparation Of the documents
to be signed and for reception by the
French ambassador of authority to sign
this particular paper in behalf Of the
Spanish government.
AT lis o'clock, after having been for
two hours in the state department. the
