ENaLAND's wEALTHIEsT DUKES.
Bedford and Westminster Heaa List
 fin Territorial Possessions.

fin Territorial POssessions.
 Speculation was rife a few days ago concerning the identity of the two mill lionaires who are credited in the sta tistical abstract of the United King dom with possessing between them the enormous sum of S32,090,O00, says the Montreal Star. These two fortunate persons are probably the dukes of Westminster and Bedford.
 The Duke of Bedford. who is known among his intimates by the nickname of "Hatband," owns the larger portion of Bloomsbury and the whole of Co which is reputed to bring him S250,000 year. The Duke and Duchess of Bedford care little for society, and the only occasions on which they appear are at rare intervals in the Bedford box at Covent Garden opera and at Princes skating rink in Knightsbridge. At Woburn Abbey, their principal pa- latial residence, there are private geological gardens. The Duchess of Bedford is a fellow of the Geological Society. The duke is greatly taken up with all the varied interests of his property and is the author of a book on ''The Management of Great Estate"
 It is doubtful whether the Duke of Westminster realizes exactly what he is worth. He is probably che most wealthy territorial magnate in the Kingdom, counting among his proper ties the valuable Grovenor estate. which is situated in the heart of the West End
 The Grosvenor family represents one of the few remaining sets in London society that may be described as strict ly exclusive. They live in a world of their own. Outsiders for them do not exist, nor will they willingly tolerate the presence of any one who by birth and breeding does not belong to the privileged elect. This exclusiveness is probably the result of the successful marriages made by the Grosvenor girls into exalted families.
 An idea of the dukes colossal wealth can be gained by an inspection of the splendid town mansion. which is a treasure house filled with objects of priceless value. Many people are con tent with a clock which costs a few dollars, but that which tells his grace of Westminster the hour possesses a pendulum which in itself is worth S240,O00, for it is set with forty-eight fiowless diamonds, each valued al S5,000. The Duke of Westminster is a popular sportsman, and is known among his particular friends as Bend Or, a nickname conferred on him to commemorate the famous race horse of that name. owned by his grandfuih- CT, the late duke. Socialists and others may forgive him his great wealth when 1t is stated that fancy foods have no favor in the Westminster household. Simple dishes are always provided, such as mutton outlets. milk buildings, fruit tarts and so on- Much of his vast wealth is derived from ground rents. He grows rich because he can't help it.
