FEUD IN FAMILY
Mrs. Higgins, Rival Grandmother,
Greatly Disappointed at the
Birth of Roxburghe Heir.
Special Gable to The American.

oPeC'di SapIe TO he American.
LONDON, Nov. S.-"Don't mention
the Roxburghe affair to Mrs. Harry
Higgins" was the strange warning
which Mrs, Edmund l.. Baylies re-
celVed early in the week when she
returned TO the Ritz Hotel from Scot
land SO far no one has been cour-
ageous enough to discuss with the
ambitious mother of Lady Alistair
lnnes- ker, the Duchess of Rox-
Dughe's baby, which supplants Mrs.
Higgins grandsons.
Lady Alistair, who was the former
Miss Breese, of New York, remains
amiable on the subject of the defect
ed title, but Mrs. Higgins refused TO
go to the christening and swallows
the bitter pill in silence. Meanwhile
London society smiles at the griev-
ances Of the clever American woman
who married her daughters so ad-
vantageously and now takes so much
to heart the upset OF her plans.
AT one meeting in the Ritz restau-
rant a scene which might have been
worthy of Thackeray's pen in de-
scription was the meeting of the ag
grieved Mrs Higgins and Mrs Ogden
Goelet, grandmother OF the trlum-
plant Roxburghe baby. A careful
;old nod was exchanged, and then
Mrs. Baylies was told how fearful TO
be when mentioning the news Of the
baby TO Mrs. Higgins.
Some say Mrs Higgins never will
recover entirely from that disappoint-
ment that none of her progeny will
inherit ducal honors
