ROME, March 21-The following ex-
PLANTATION of the present situation with
regard to the reported engagement OF
the Duke d'Abruzzi and Katherine Ell
kins was obtained today from an un
improbable authority:
The Duke dAbruzzi came to Rome
IN February and dined with King Vic
tor Emmanuel He did not ask his ma
Jesty's consent to an engagement with
Miss Elkins. He did, however, obtain
leave of absence from the ministry oil
marine and went TO America.
AS matter OF fact, it is learned
that the duke spoke to the king with
regard to the Elkins family some time
prior to this, and with such persist,
ence that the king questioned MIN spe-
officially about the family, but at no
time did the duke ask the consent OF
the king to his marriage with Miss FL
kins.
1t is believed here that the Duke
d'Abruzzi is coming to Italy to ask the
consent of the king. The delay is not so
strange as would appear as it is I'M
derstOod that the duke intended to ar
range matters with the Ellzins family
privately before pleading his suit with
Victor Emmanuel. A definite decision,
therefore, is not likely to be given I'M
til after the duke reaches Rome, about
April 1.

U. s. Shipping Commissioner H. N.
Almy and j. A. Gilman, who repre-

all day yesterday in getting a crew
signed for the Edward Sewall which
was to have sailed for the Atlantic

the difficulty in getting together a
crew. Finally six Japanese, seven Ha-
waiians, two Mexicans, three Filipinos,
and the rest Americans, were put on

Prior to the Russo-Japanese war
the claims of China over Manchuria
were treated as negligible by Russia
who established garrisons in the prov
ince and acted very much as a suze-
rain power. The activity of the Jap
anese at the present time in reaching
out for monopoly of the Manchurian
trade probably dictates Russias change
of attitude and prompts the full recog-
milton of China's claims as a check TO
that nation.

THE SPURIOUS CONGRESS.

The Sixtieth Congress will pass into
history as the Spurious Congress. 1t
has done nothing worthy of a great
representative body. In its appropria-
tions it has been more extravagant
than any of its predecessors, and will
leave the government $50, 600, 900 in ar
rears on the first day of July next, and
$l6O. 600, 900 in arrears on July /, 1909.
so that money will have to be borrowed
even for running expenses. 1t has
refused to modify the tariff even on
wood pulp and print paper. 1t has
enacted currency legislation of the worst
possible type, legislation not in favor
OF the interests of the people at large,
but of Wall Street.
1t has upheld the President in his
wild and dangerous assertion of the
supremacy of the military over the
civil power. Its sins of commission and
its sins of omission are equally fragrant,
because bothare as bad as possible. It's
adjournment was welcomed by the
American people. The only defect in
our Constitution is that it requires this
Congress to meet again before its
dissolution.

ALL OVER BUT THE SHOUTING.

The political views of the News Leader
sometimes fall far short of the Judgment
and intelligence expressed along such
lines as economics, sociology, finances,
religion and philosophy. That journal,
preaching political independence declares
for Henry c. Stuart. This is all right.
1t is perfectly proper for it to have a
favorite and back him. While the
declaration is no surprise to those who
have observed the affinity, it is not ex-
actly independence. Mr.. Stuart has
not an immaculate record and the News
Leader as an independent free lance
should be in position to criticise it.
The News Leader besides placing the
colors of Stuart at the masthead, and
its declaration is so Interpreted, grows
prophetic. The next thing to do for a
candidate when you have gotten back
of him is to brag on what runner he
is. So the News Leader saws that
Mann and Stuart will be the only ones
running that will amount to anything
and that all the rest of the guberna-
torial lineup will be small fry. We
were at loss to know where the News
Leader got its figures but we find them
upon looking over the files. We find
some time back that councilman from
4 cow-pasture ward of Manchester gave
big feast. First on the scene while
the sun was yet an hour or so high was
one Gregory, doubtless j. p. or
Notary Public, because Judge" is
prefixed in every instance where his
name is used. The judge, seated on
the front porch, with a big quid of
Battle-axe tobacco in his mouth and
smelling the boiling of coffee and the
frying of eggs, proceeded to fall into a
trance, and pictured Henry C. Stuart
sitting up in the big chair of the Capitol
in language almost as beautiful as the
rose-colored letter which Stuart once
wrote about preposterous telegram.
This scoop" printed some days after
Judge" Gregory got good supper.
was on the first page under head line
that would have been credit to William
Randolph Hearst.
Of course, if the friend of the coun-
Gilman from the great metrop of Man
chester has spoken, the thing is settled
and Stuart will be the next Governor.
