It is luiiliiratoiid here that the nature,
of tlio ItritiHh government's reply lias
alruuily lioun informally communicated
to Secretary flay. Great Britain Iiub no
intention of modifying the Clayton

the foreign otlieo view of the ease, ro

it wan Higned. The HpeecheB made in
the senate do not disturb Downing street.
Thuy are dismissed with the remurk that
"treatleB cannot lie abrogated without
tlio consent ol both the contracting par
ties." There is, however, an apparently
genuine belle! here that a satisfactory
arrangement will eventually bu arrived
at. There is n freely expressed disin

Imhanapouh, Itid., March 10 The
condition of ex-l'reeident Harrison is re-
rioiiB. Dr. Jameson stated today that
the upper part of General IlarriBon's left
lung was inflamed. There is some dan
gor of the congestion extending to tho
reBt of the lung and to tho right lung
Until .'I o'clock this afternoon, General
Harrison wiib resting easy, but at that
time he became slightly worse and Dr
Jameson was called. He said ho was
certain nothing was to be apprehended
for the next -IS hours but the age of the
patient renders all calculations 1111
certain. At 8 o'clock this evening
General Harrison was suffering some
pain, but was resting comparatively easy.
I.nm.vnai'olik, Ind., March 11. At an
early hour this (Monday) morning there
was no change in the condition of Gen
eral Harrison, either for the worse or
better. He wub still resting easily, with
little pain, but rattier a high fever. His
tomperatt.ro at midnight was 102?,.. Dr.
Francis O. Dorsey remains ut the reel
deuce all night, to be in readiness at any
unfavorable symptom in the patient.

Bride's Place On the Inter
Oceanic Committee Upon Request
of Senator Morgan, of Alabama.
Washington" , March 9. After pro
ceedings lasting only six days, the ex
iraorainary session 01 the eenate wbb
declared adjourned sine die at 1 :55 p
m., today.
During the session very little business
except of an executive character was
transacted. John H. Mitchell, recently
elected senator from Oregon, was pre
sented by his colleague, Senator Joseph
Simon, and took the oath of office. He
was given a cordial reception by his
colleagues on the floor, many of whom
had served in the senate with him, and
by his friends in the galleries, who
greeted his appearance with hearty ap-
plauBe.
Several baskets of beautiful roses and
jonquils, arranged in delicate designs,
adorned the desk of Senator Mitchell
when the senate convened today. Senator
Simon, of Oregon, announced that his
recently elected colleague, Mr. Mitchell,
was present and requested that the oath
of office be administered to him, as a
matter of privilege. On the arm of
Senator Simon advanced to the vice-
president's desk. As they ascended the
platform, the galleries, recognizing
Mitchell, cordially applauded him, and
the vice-president sharply rebuked the
spectators for the applauBe.
Morgan, chairman of the committee
on inter-oceanic canals, asked unani
mous consent that Mitchell be appointed
to succeed his predecessor, McBride, as
a uember of that committee. He real
ized, he said, that it waB an unusual
request, but it was made because of the
notable interest in canal legislation
always manifested by Mitchell, who,
like McBride ,waB an eameBt and able
advocate of the construction of the canal.
After the request had been granted with
out comment, Hoar, addressing the
chair, remarked that for very obvious
reasons no objections were made to the
request of Morgan, but he felt bound to
say that it was likely to give rise to a
great inconvenience on both sides of
the chamber. If any further requests of
such u nature were made by individual
senators, he said, he would feel bound
to object.

Prince Ohing and Earl Li seem to think
thut by spreadiug rumors of the court's
unwillingness to return to Pekin, unless
this or that thing is done, they can in
fluence the deliberations of the ministers
of the powers. As a matter of fact, ac
cording to reliable reports from Siuau
Fu, the imperial personages are ex
tremely uncomfortable at Siuuu Fu,
where they live in the house of the gov
ernor, which is only a small structure.
French missionaries who have just re
turned from Siuau Fu believe that the
em presB dowager would bring the court
back to Pekin on the first oiler of the
allies, having as a basis the removal of
the troops, except the legation guards.

PETTICOAT COLONELS
Royal Ladies of Europe Who Don
Regimentals.
Uarrnn anil Prlnrraai-a Lead Troop,
rartlcliinlr In Drills, and Hide
w ith Skill mid (irnce- Klnv
Arc I'oor lloracmen.
Tt is not generally known that most
of the royal ladies of ICurope nre col
onels of both infantry and cavalry
rcL'imeiils, and that som of them
even devote n good deal of time and
attention to their subordinate sol
diers. Nearly all of them, when ar
rayed in their regimental pirl), seem
to lose every cslifje of feminine up
pearnnee, and at n distance They cor
tainly look very mannish.
Foremost among" tho feminine royal
colonels is the (iermnn empro?. Her
majesty is chief of the famous First
regiment of imperial euirasMors
Often on parade days the empress
may be seen riding at the head of
this military bodv, nud, after salut
ing tho emperor, rein in beside him
nnd let the regiments pass. She cuts
a dashing ngure, as she is tall and
well formed. Her regimental uniform
is very showy red facings on a pure
white material, .surmounted by a
three-cornered hat with large, droop
ing heron s plumes.
Queen Margherita of Italy has
grown quite stout of late, and just
before King Humbert's assassination
ordered a brand new colonel's uni
form, in which she appeared ut the
head of a regiment of Hessian ran
gers This royal aniazon is very sel
dom seen on horseback in her own
country, but when cn a visit to the
duchy of liessia she delights in honor
ing her regiment, of which she. was
made an honorary chief bv Kaiser
Wilhelm, her late husband's most de
voted friend and ally.
The kaiser's mother, ex-Empress
JTederick, is chief of the Second regi
ment of imperial hussars. She is per
haps tho only royal woman who has
retained her feminine tooks on horse
back. Despite her udvaneeu ago she
looks quite pretty. She is also com
manding ollicer of the Eightieth in
fantry, battalions of which are sta
tioned at Homburg and Wiesbaden,
within a couple of hours' ride of her
summer residence. During her stay
there she frequently invites the act
ing colonel, stall' and the line ollieers
to dine with her and discuss regi
mental matters, and at times she at
tends the held exercises oi her men.
A very manly appearance has the
Grand Duchess Victoria of Hess when
dressed in her regimentals as colonel
of the Third regiment of Hessian in
fantry. She is ory enthusiastic
about her soldiers, and does not re
gard her position as honorary. She
is often on the parade ground, even
when the regiment is at work. Then
she appears in undress uniform, con
sisting of a dark blue coat, red collar
and eutl's, edged with blue, and a
heavy black shirt. What gives her a
manly appearance more than any
thing else is her peaked helmet,
tightly strapped about her chin.
The Crown Princess Maria of Hon
mania is another royal female colonel,
who considers herself hound to her
regiment in more than name. She i.s
the chief of the Fourth regiment of
ltoumanian hussars, She looks very
imposing at the head of her troop,
and is u very skillful horsewoman.
This petticoat colonel is a woman of
orsatilo talents; she has written vol
uminously in the sphere of (lotion and
histrionics, As an amateur actress,
both in the (lonnau ami ltoumanian
languages, she has displayed wonder
ful talents, and it is said of her that
she Is the power behind the throne in
Itoumauia.
Among younger royal female colo
nels' are tho Crown Princess Cliarlntta
of Saxe-.Moiningen and Princess
Adolph of Schuumhiirg-I.ippe. The
former is ehlof of the King Frederick
111. regiment of grenadiers, and the
latter commands the Fifth Westphal
ia n infantry.
Queen Wilholinina of Holland, the
youngest of all, is chief of a number
of Dutch nnd Gorman regiments. She
looks exceedingly pretty in the uni
form of a gcnerul of tho royal horse
guards, dark blue, with gold facings,
epaulettes and the numerous insignia
of rank. Sometimes she appears at
tho head of her troops riding on her
favorite pony "Ilaby," wearing a
white aniazon riding habit, with the
regulation tall black hut.
It is a curious fact that while near
ly all the royal ladies of Europe are
superb and picturesque horsewomen,
few of the reigning sovereigns are
even tolerable riders. Emperor Wil
liam has not n firm seat, and is nt a
disadvantage because of his crippled
nrm, and always mounts with assist
ance of some, kind,
King Humbert of Italy was famous
for his falls, the emperor of Russia is
not a master of the equestrian art,
and the kings of Sweden, Greece and
Denmark absolutely abhor riding, Tho
king of Portugal finds no enjoyment
when mounted because of his "embon
point," Prince Ferdinand of Bulgaria
cannot ride for an hour at a time,
nnd King Alexander of Servia is afraid
of horses.
Fov lliiiitlnv n Co!ly Luxury.
Fox hunting comes high in Britain.
Some interesting particulars relating
to the first cost of the sport were
given by Lord Itathurst. There are
now J2i packs of foxhounds in the
United Kingdom ISO in England, SO
in Scotland and 15 in Ireland, and
these packs consist of S,KK) couples
of hounds, and they necessitate the
employment of m,0Of) horses of the
value of $.'1,1,000,000, involving an out
lay of fLM.OOO.OOO per milium for their
maintenance.
