The officers of the steamer Estelle Ran

like to locate calf of a nondescript
color which escaped while being unloaded
from the steamer Tuesday night. The
calf was one of number that had been
taken on the steamer at Smiths wharf
They had been raised in King George
county, Va. and were as wild as ma
ture could make them.
AS they were being taken from the
warehouse on the wharf to the boat, one
of them gave Jim Golden, the head deck
hand of the steamer. solar plexus kick
that put him out of business for while,
and all the way up the river they en-
tered strenuous objections to what was
going on. After the steamer reached
here the deck hands were transferring the
animals from the boat to the pen on
the Sth street wharf, in which they are
kept, when one of the calves got away
from the two men that had hold of it.

later lOrO president or the council, OleO
last night. He was born in 1919.
Lord Tweedmouth married a daughter
of the seventh Duke of Marlborough. His
parliamentary service as liberal represen-
tative Of the Berwick district began in 1850.
He was controller OF the household in
1856: parliamentary secretary to. the
treasury and chief liberal whip, 1S92-1S94
lord privy seal and chancellor of the
Duchy of Lancaster. 1s94-1s95. He became
first lord of the admiralty as the result of
the liberal victory in 1905 which made Sir
Henry Campbell Zimmerman premier.
In the early part Of 1908 it was discOv-
cred that Lord Tweedmouth had been
corresponding with the German emperor
on the subject of the British naval pro-
gram. which created a sensation in Eng
land and in Germany. The subject was
referred to on several occasions in the
house of commons, and the chancellor of
the exchequer. Mr.. Asquith, eventually
made statement in which he declared
that the letter to Lord Tweedmouth from
sonal and private communication, con-
celved In an entirely friendly spirit and
That Lord Tweedmouth's answer was
equally private and informal.
In Germany the incident of the letters
led to the great discontinue of the en-
peror. He was criticised on all sides for
his presumption in ignoring the standing
of the people and their representatives in
the empires government. The news
papers and the people gave the most
pointed affronts to the sovereign, and to
foreign observers it seemed as If the en-
peror would be forced to extreme meas
ures to retain his position. After the lead
ers of the confederate states had called
on the emperor and defined his true place
in the affairs Of state he made memora-
BILE promise to the German people never
again to give them cause for complaint
Since then the emperor has appeared in
public with much less frequency. and his
speeches, now very rare, contain nothing
that might tnf1ame the most sensitive of
his subjects.
Lord Tweedmouth also made a state
ment In the house Of lords which showed
that the matter was of no great i'm
portance. and no action. to his detriment
was taken then. On the reorganization
of the ministry after Sir Henry Campbell
Bannerman's death he was appointed
lord president of the council, but he re-
signed some months later.
