I am not aware that there is any
precedent for the institution of an
action for damage for libel against
a Colonial Governor in respect to
the contents of dispatch to the Sec
retary of State. such as the suit
brought by lady of Jamaica against
Sir Sydney Oliver Miss Hay. the
plaintiff, is the owner of extensive
estates in Jamaica which have be-
longed to her family for generations,
and of which she became possessed in
Jamaica and interested herself i'm the
condition of the native population,
both on her own property and IN
other parts of the island. Deeply
moved by what she found, Miss HAY
became a persistent advocate of vari-
Gus administrative reforms. more

medical service and poor relief Az

Mr.. Harcourt. the Colonial Secre-
tary in London. asked Sir Sydney for
report on the subject to which Miss
Hay referred. Sir Sydney replied in
q dispatch. which was not merely a
report upon the matters of which
Miss Hay complained but also a

to state facts correctly, completely
and justly Sir Sydney accused
Miss Hay of having "concocted" GER

Since then Sir Sydney admitted

that this accusation was not war

offensive imputation upon Miss Hay

PEACHES

From the Dover Index.
The success of a few peach growers
of Kent county this year is likely TO
give peach culture renewed impetus. In
the face of most unfavorable conditions
the orchards that have been properly
cared for and which were sprayed had
good crop and the size and quality
have been excellent Three things have
been demonstrated. the trees must be
carefully pnined and wormed. they must
be fed with the necessary fertilizers and
humus crops. and they must be sprayed
not only often but thoroughly. Where
trees were sprayed four times they
did best. and possibly a fifth spraying
would have brought best results. Fruit
growing is business, a speciality. and
the farmers who put ont trees as one OF
their lines and on poorly adapted and
poorly improved land. do little it any

LONDON, Oct. 25.-Mrs. George Doug

OF Chicago, and a Vassar graduate, has
been raising a hornets nest here owing
to the production of her Anglo Indian
play Collision"
Mrs. Turner, whose pen name Is
Bridget MacLagen," treats In her play
or lmperialistic. subjects and the critics
stormed her effort into commercial fail
ure, although they admitted the Ameri-
cans work was extraordinary for first
play Mrs. Turner will continue as a
dramatist.
In Collision" the playwright illus
trates inter marriage between the Eng
l1sh and East Indians and shows how
the English had upset imperial prestige
by lack of self control. This was the
point that caused the critics to fume.
Mrs. Turner said yesterday to The Sun
day American representative:
Bad reviews literally killed my play.

Grand Duchess Swears She Will
Marry Only Man of Her
Choice.
Special Gable to The American.

ST. PETERSBURG, Oct 25.-While
the betrothal of Grand Duchess Olga,
the Cars eldest daughter, to Prince
Charles, son of the Crown Prince of
Roumania. has been announced in
Roumania, the Grand Duchess oppo-
sition prevents its announcement in
Russia. She has sworn to marry no.
body but her cousin, Dmitri Pavlo-
witch, son of Grand Duke Paul. to
whom she was secretly betrothe1
more than a year ago,
The Roumanian match is favored
here because it would strengthen Rus
sia's prestige in the Balkans The
Car Is said to be torn between po-
litical reasons nd his daughters hap.
piness. He has been accused Of plan
ming virtually to sell the girl, and, in
the same line of policy, another
daughter Princess Titania, to Prince
Alexander OF Servla.
Prince Charles mother the beauti-
flu Princess Marie, the Cars own
cousin, labored hard to persuade him
during her recent visit in Russia, but
nobody at court believes the marriage
will take place unless the Grand
Duchess Olga changes her mind of
her own free will.
While Dmitri Pavlovitch Ia only a
poor relation" there is a large party
in Russia in favor OF his marrying
Olga and making them heirs-appar-
ent. since the Czarevitch's health is so
bad and his uncle Grand Duke Mi
chael refuses to be bothered with i
crown. OF course. the Roumanian
match would knock this plan 70
pieces, but it is said to be one OF the
reasons that make the Car hesitate
about choosing Prince Charles as a
son in law.
