Sir: Some genius with a for statistics has fig

Prince in America about $3.50 600. This includes
the Stats Zetung's dinner and the private feasts
the launching Of the Meteor and the thousand and

entertainments. On the other hand, the cost to
Prince or the Prussian Government Is figured out
as being little more than 100000 This way:

Correspondence OF The Journal
London, Jan. 11.-Lady Helen Stewards
marriage to Lord stavordale on the 18th
of this month promises to be the biggest
wedding event of the coronation season.
She is the only daughter of Lord London
derry, one of the richest and most power
full of British peers, as well as the most
criticized postmaster general on record,
and the chosen bride Of the eldest son OF
the Earl and Countess Of Leicester, and
future mistress of historic Holland House,

, nightly important occurrence, even mad
it not been for her fsmily's reputed inten-
ton to spare no expense to make 1t an
unusually gorgeous affair.
Lady Helen, though she does not in
herit all the great beauty of her mother,
Lady Londonderry, is girl of more than
common brilliancy and magnetism and a
great social favorite. Although she
"came out" nearly seven years ago, she
has chung to her freedom until now, part
ly on account of her expressed intention
of "having her swing before she settled
down, and, perhaps partly on account of
the fact that she has always been her
fathers constant companion and chum,
and that he was by no means in a hurry
to give her up to any one else.
She is to be married from Londonderry
House, in aristocratic Park Lane, and will
| have a bevy of ten young ladies with ex-
pansive family trees as bridesmaids. Al
ready the presents have begun to come in,

TRIBAL RELATIONS
Clapp and Clark Framing a Bill to
Dissolve Them.

Washington, Jan. 25.-The idea Of In
dian Commissioner Jones with reference
to the dissolution Of the tribal relations
and the NATURALIZATION Of the affairs of
the Indians Of the United States will soon
be presented to congress in the form Of
a bill, now being prepared by Senator
Clapp of Minnesota and Clark of Mon
tana. They were designated as sub
committee to consider this subject by
Senator Stewart, chairman Of the senate
Indian committee. The measure pro-
yides for the ENGRAVING into the Indian
reaching in their effect. Its purpose is to
to require him to manage his own af-
fairs, and to separate him from the tribal
relations, acknowledged to be the princi-
pal obstacles in the way of Indian civ
ilization.
It is proposed to place the tribal funds
in the treasury to the credit of the in
diyidual and this idea will apply also to
allotments. When an Indian dies, under
the proposed policy his property will go
to his, heirs, instead Of reverting to the
tribe, as under present conditions.
This policy is generally commended by
students of the Indian question. 1t has
been received with pronounced favor by
the Indian committees of the respective
houses of congress. The senate commit
tee intends, If possible, to pass such laws
as will enable the commissioner of Indian
affairs to put it into effect. Senator Clapp
said to-day that he regarded this propo-
sition as a decided step In advance.
The Indian question: so-called. said

Senator Proctor looked at the senator
from Montana rather sharply and replied
in his most cordial tone:
