Ni:w Yokk, March 12. A dispatch to
the Hornlii from London, eays: Another
attempt iH soon to he made to obtain
royal clemency for Florence May brick.
Tlio Baroness le Ronquos, Mrs. May
brick's mother, I as been in London dur
inn the hist week in consultation with
her legal advisers for the purpose of
framing a petition to the crown for her
daughter's pardon. It lias been intimated
that the prospect of bringing about such
n denouement lias not diminished owing
to Hie accession of His Majeety, Edward
VII, hut quite tho contrary.
However, that may be, that is to say,
whatever views His Majesty may person
ally entertain on the question of the
guilt or punishment of Mrs. Mnybrick,
it is not the intention of her friends to
conduct the latest campaign for her re
lease on similar lines to those formerly
adopted. One (if the stanchest sup
porters of the Baroness de Ronques is .1.
II. Levy, the chairman of tho Personal
Rights Association of the National
Liberal Club. He has had several con
ferences with Mr. Choate, while de
clining officially to take part in such
proceedings, has nevertheless assured
the friends ot Mrs. Mnybrick that lie
will do everything he can in his private
capacity to further their object.
Another new departure in the lutest
effort to cecum the liberty of Mrs. Mny
brick is the discountenancing of news
paper advocacy. Mr Levy said :
"While we recognize uud are grateful
for the spirit actuating such support to
our appeal, we cannot help feeling that
its! very earnestness may eomehow tend
to defeat its own object. Under the
uircuuiBtunces we have deemed it best
merely to plead the unfortunate lady's
case as one meriting royal clemency, and
on this ground to petition the king to
grant her pardon."
Mr. Levy's appeal will probably be
handed to the Homo Secretary, Mr. Rit
chie, this week.

London', Match VI. Preeiding at the
annual meeting of the Associated Cham
bers of Commerce of the Unittd King
dom, which opened in 1-andon today,
Lord Avebury foreshadowed changes in
the British tarifl'utid urged the necessity
of being prepared to promote the
interests of Biitieh commerce on the
termination of the present treaties. Al
terations, he added, are already being
eonsidoied in the treaties with Germany,
Austria and Portugal. He ie greatly in
tTettad in the outcome of the tanir wnr 1
which has suddenly broken out between
the United States and Riifgia, ho said.
Naturally, he said, America regerds as a
marked bounty tho Russian system of
aiding tho exportation of (ho surplus
beet sugar. Thb whole dispute illustrates
tbe complicated questions which arise
when it is attempted to apply protection
generally. As far as Great Britain is
concerned, she will enter into negotia
tions, not wishing to hainpei or curtail
her commerce with her neighbors, but
rather to promote it, being convinced
that commerce benefits both buyers and
sellers.
On tho motion of Mr. Walton, M. P.,
the meeting parsed u resolution to the
ellect tbat separation for the recent
events in China should bo sought in in
creased facilities for trade, rather than
in money indemnity.

Washington, March 12. Conditions
in Culm are said by officials at the war
department to bo improving. It unas
serted that the feeling of unreaes wVich
followed the adoption of the Piatt Cuban
resolution by congress is quieting down
and gradually a peaceful condition ia be
ing brought about. Confidence is ex
pressed that this BUte of affairs in Cuba
will continue unless something unfore
seen should develop. The lsteBt in
formation received by the department is
said to be reassuring in its tone, and
leads the officials to believe there will be
no disturbances.
"What Cuba wants ia test and peace,"
said nn official, discussing the matter,
"and that seems to be the desire of her
people. It is surely our desire."
Senators Piatt and Cockrell are going
to Cuba. Both are members of the
senate military committee, aud desire to
inform themselves as to the cocditiouB
in the island.

Nkw VoitK, March 12. Senator John
T. Morgan, chairman of the committee
on international canals, in an interview
with the Washington correrpondent of
the Journal and Advertiser, says :
"If it is true, as I hope it is, that our
canal rights in Nicaragua and Costa
Rica, acquired last December by a com
pact between the United States and
those republics, will not become the
subject of negotiations at the initiation
of Kngland, we shall proceed quietly to
construct own and use the canal, and
Great Britain will be left to make.her
objections in such form as she may
choose.
"Those agreements were made deliber
ately and full knowledge that they were
in diametric opposition to the Clayton-
liulwer featy. They weie based on the
principles of and adopted almost literal
ly the regulations prescribed for the
Suez Canal by the treaty ot Constan
tinople of 1888. The president recognized
the right of Costa Rica and Nicaragua to
qualify their agreement with the United
Slates according to the plans and prin
ciplea of the treaty of Constantinople.
"Great Britain and the United States
na-i agreed to trie same declarations in
uie nay-raunceioie treaty ana in con
formity therewith bad agreed to silence
any objection tuat might arise out of the
Clayton-Bulwer treaty to the exclusive
ownership and control of the Nicaragua
Canal by the United States. Great
Britain did not urge any objectionB but
referred to them as being possible only
and consented to remove them. Her
honorable course at that time may not
continue to animate her conduct under
the reign of King Edward, but she must
be aware that a covert threat of (lis
pleaeure at our executing our acreements
with Nicaragua will lose its moral force
and its power to alarm the United States
into another fit of paralysie.
"Those agreements upon which the
whole question of tho canal now hinges,
will be carried out in harmony and with
the undivided sentiment of the American
people. If the conclusion that Great
Britain is alleged to have reached had
been given to the senate 10 days ago the
Hepburn bill would now be the law of
the land. All delay now is to the ad
vantage of Great Britain and to our
terrible disadvantage, but she lias gained
another year on us. I hope it will be
the last. Wo contemplate no breacli of
the peace or of good feeling bccauBU we
shall do, under our agreements with
Costa Rica and Nicaragua wiiat wo have
agreed to do, as those agreements are in
lino with the treaty of Constantinople,
to which all Europe assents."
King 1h Tolerant.
Ni:v Yohk, March 12. Commenting
on the position taken by Mr. Balfour in
the house ot commons on tho form of
oath now taken by the king on meeting
parliament for tho first time, the London
correspondent of tho Tribune eays that
the King takes pains to show today that
he tolerates every form of ecclesiastical
policy, for ho receives at St. James pal
ace delegations of two conventions of tho
established church, with Presbyterian,
WeBleyans and Nonconformists of all
shades of belief and form of government.

...Our New Spring Styles...
The "Military" Sack Suit.
(isP, sis
Perfect Pitting.
Superbly Tailored.
Made of an unfinished worsted, the most popular
suiting of the season ; navy blue with a faint light stripe.
The coat is made to fit snugly to the figure in tbe back,
with well-balanced shoulders, giving that very stylish
broad-shouldered appearance. Corners are half rounded.
Average length 30 inches. Trousers aie a trifle wider at
knee than last season ; same bottom.
As soon as the weather
clears
you will be ready for your npw spring suit anyway
in time for Easter; we will take that much for
granted, at least.
Now when you're ready or before come in.
The firet of the spring styles are here. You will par
don us for saying, they are the finest at tbe price ever
shewn in this store which is saying a good deal, we
admit. If you are not yet ready to buy or look feel
assured that a few days more will aee the assortment
doubled and full ot tbe choicest creations of this
country's beat tailors which means of the world.
A word to those who would wear made-to-meaeure
clothes : Unless you can afford to patron
ize the very beat merchant tailor and pay his fancy
price, buy end wear ready-made clothing.
The ready-made clothing of today is not what it
used to be. It has, like everything else, followed
closely iu the wake of progress, and is today as far
superior to its former kind as the up-to-date stores
of the present time are to the primitive cross-roads
stores of the early days. It is far superior to tbe av
erage merchant tailor work, in quality of materials
(inside and out), is more stylishly cut and finished
and if price-difference is any object to you is only
about half the tailors'.figures.
There is no reason on
earth
Why a man who is within calling distance of this
store should have his clothing made to measure.
When our spring line is complete we challenge the
man who says we cannot suit or fit him.
