FOREIG..J NOTES.

It is not only to the relationship which exists between Queen Regent Christina and the Austrian emperor that must be ascribed the efforts Of the latter's government to organize a combination of the European pow CTS in support of Spain against the United States, but likewise to the deep-rooted and traditional hatred which Francis Joseph and his minis ter of foreign affairs, Count Golouch- owski, entertain for everything Amer ican.
 It may be remembered that it was the grandfather of Francis Joseph who was the author of that holy alliance which was directed against the Unit ed States, and which called into ex- istenee the Monroe doctrine. More over, Francis Joseph considers the United States as primarily responsib e for the overthrow and death of his brother, Emperor MaXimilian, in Mex ico. A death which he has so iittie forgotten or forgiven that to this day the court of Vienna absolutely de- clines to receive any diplomatic rep resentative of Mexico.
  his aversion to the United States is based on different grounds. He is
 married to a daughter of that French Prince Murat, who a few years ago was on the point Of wedding Miss Gwendclina Caldwell of Washington. The trcussead hal been bought and the day of the wedding aai been fixed, when, at the last minute, Miss Cald-
  put forward such preposterous de- mands of financial character that he knew his bride could neither concede nor even consider them, and when these were refused, he broke of the match.
 It subsequently, became known that he had done this in obedience to the behest of his married children, who threatened to sever all relations with him if he married an American girl, but who were obliged, in consideration Of his breaking Off the match, to con- tribute for his support d larger an nuity than he would have received as
 Miss Caldwells husband.
 Count Golouchwski does not like to part with his money, and each time that he has to put his hand into his pocket to pay his father-in-laws al ioWance, his grudge against the Unit ed States increases.
 Lord Hillingdon's death seems to have been startlingly sudden. He had accompanied the earl and countess Of Pembroke, with whom he was stay ing, to the Wilton parish church, and the service had just commenced when he suddenly, without any warning, fell dead by the side of his hostess. He was partner in the we'll known bank ing firm of Glyn Mills s& Co.,, which has another peer partner in the per- son of Lord Wolverton. The latter acquired his knowledge of banking in this country, and for several years
 worked as a clerk in various financial
 institutions in Wall street, New York. Wilderness, the Kentish country
 seat of Lord Hillingdon, was the ob-
 ject of celebrated law suit some
 twenty years ago. The estate was. the
 property of the marquis of Camden,
 then Q boy. His uncles, who are in
 line of a succession to the title and es-
 5ates, strongly opposed the sale of the
 property by the trustees. But the
 
 Yet another peer of the realm, name
 ly, Lord Suffolk, has by his own tes-
 tamentary directions, been cremated,
 following in this respect the example of the late duke and duchess of Bed
 ford, the duchess of St. Albans, the
 marquis of Sligo, the countess of Rus sell, and many others The earl of Suffolk and Berkshire belonged to Cf old most
 illustrious families of the British peerage, as he was descended from
 the house of Howard, the branch Of
 having parted from the parent stock
 in the reign of Queen Elizabeth
 Lord Suffolk was the eighteenth
 earl in direct succession from Lord
 Thomas Howard, who was created
 earl of Suffolk in 1903 by King James I, as reward for the prominent part which he took in the discovery of the gun powder plot. The late earl took
 little or no part in political life, but
 devoted his attention to the turf, and
 was one of the most influential mem
 bers of the jockey club.
 Welding an elegant and facile pen, he frequently wrote on sport, and at
 the time of his death was one of the joint editors of the new encyclopedia of. sport.
 Charton park, the ancestral coun- try seat of the earl of Suffolk in Wilt shire, is stately Jacobean mansion, the oldest part of which was built in the reign of James I. The east frcnt was added in 1773 by the Lord Suf- folk who was secretary Of state during the American revolutionary war. Charton park contains some very
