About the only persons who do not ap proclnto tho humor of Count Honl's embar rassment In being deprived of I ho futuro use of his American wife's money aro the per sons who havo been systematically swind ling him for tho past tlvo years. Those peoplo, who embrace unions their numbers men and women of all gradou of social prominence nnd obscurity In l'arls, aro on raged over tho announcement uiado by tho legul representatives of Ocorgo Oould, who has been appointed guardian of his fathor's estate, that their extravagant claims agalust Count Ilonl will not be paid. Hcury Cachard, of tho llrm of Coudert Hroa., who aro looking after the affairs of the Countess Castellane, told me tonight, with convincing emphasis that neither (leorge nor any other member of the Could family Intended to pay all the count's debts. "On tho contrary," said Mr. Cachard, "my Arm will light stubbornly alt falso or ex orbitant claims which may be presented to us for payment." This explanation, which Is made by ex plicit direction of George Gould, has thrown tho class of dishonorable creditors who aro swarming about the count Into n panic of rngo. It la not Improbable, that tiomo of them will tako their claims Into court and demand a settlement. Although most of the swindlers will hesitate o havo 'tho exact nature of some of their transactions with tho count unveiled to the public gazo, somo of the stories told of plans adopted by thu swindlers who have been preying upon tho llttlo count are nlmost Incredible The dtshonorablo crod- 'fcj' Itors who are now clamoring for their money seem to havo been burrowing Into tho Castollnnu fortune as It It were u Inexhaustible gold mine. Ill Pleasure Cunt Much. Not the least exhilarating disclosures of the manner In which the count was plucked of $4,700,000 of his wife's money, which ho has squandered since 1605, relato to his own personal pleasures. MBtiy of tho claims against hlra are presented by per . sons of both sexes who mcdo It their prni- J. tlco to cater to his extravagances in spired by his personal vanity. It Is related, for Instance, that certain yachting and hunting parties were organized by somo of his creditors to gratify his desire to Bhiuo as a man of the world who could affard to pay for being entertained under tho most exclusive and high-priced con ditions. Only the fnlutcst echoes of some of theso adventures bavo been permitted to leak out, but they have bulllced to shock ve'n giddy l'arls, which has llttlo regard for tho conventional. When tho llttlo ount found himself in want of roady cash to pay for these pleasures It Is said to bavo been his custom to give abnormally largo promissory notes to tho promoters of the enterprises. Many of these notes havo fcocn discounted by money lenders In l'arls and form u part of the enormous number of claims which have been or will be pre sented to tho Could family for payment. This class of debts will bo disavowed by tho legal representatives of the Could es tate, as will also the claims of several no torious usurers who preyed upon the little uouut in tho most brazen way. but who cleverly cloaked their transactions with the air of legitimacy that will save them from prosecution for outright crookedness. Tho lawyers of the Oould family believe that they can uuravel mauy of these trans actions and show that they were consum mated lu direct opposition to tho law. it Is their purposo to do so if possible and punish the Bwindlcrs.

The Impressions made upon Parisians of a worldly bent, who regularly associated with Count Ilonl, Is that he Is a man of de- cldedly limited Intelligence, usually ac Ar ccsstblo to flattery, inordluately vain and always anxious to astonish and outdo the wealthiest peoplo of Kurope. He courted the attention of wealthy aristocrats and vied with them In silly extravagances, Consequently ho was an easy victim of three or four separato gangs of swindlers, moving In enttrel) dlfforcnt spheres, but whose one common endeavor was a steady ami remorseless plundering of tho Gould millions over which tho little count exer cised control.

HE SNUBS QUEEN OF BEAUTY llukr of Ittchnioml Decline to Ailil the .Xiinie of Sirs. Keppel to Ills Curst 1,11. (Copyright, l!:n, by Press Publishing Co.) LONDON, Nov. 3. (New York World Cablegram Special Telegram.) Mrs. George. Koppel, admired by tho prince of Wales, Is going to America with her hus band to spend two months. Sho Is re garded as one of tho most clever nnd smartest women In Kngllsh society, Tho prince of Wales is so enamored of her beauty and wit that ho considers no party complete unless sho Is ono of the guests. This Infatuation of the prlnco has led to tho usual upheavals In Kngllsh upper life. Tho duke of lllchmond refused to have Mrs. Koppel at his house, nnd In return tho prlnco declined to go thero himself. Hlnco tho memorable refusal of tho duka nnd duchess of Portland to recelvn Lady Ilrooks In compllanco with tho prince's request, there has been no such sensation In sorlety. Mrs, George Keppel, whom the duke of Richmond refused to countenance it Good wood house, Is the daughter of Sir William IMmon Stone. Her husband Is a younger brother of tho earl of Albemarle. Mrs. Keppel Is the reigning beauty of Kcgland und tho prince of Wales has Ming her praises so that sho Is sure of her title. In thn spring of ISS)9 Mrs. Keppel was on the French Hlvlcrn, and there tho prlnco became her devoted admirer. Sho took advautngo of the fact to make her American friends, Mrs. Potter Palmer and Miss Julia Grant, acquainted with his royal highness. Mrs. keppel has so completely won the! prlnco that the countess of Warwick has Jollied the has-beens. George Keppel, tho husband who shines In tho reflected light, Is tho Junior member of u Pall Mall retail wine firm. It Is said tho Keppel annual Incomo Is less than J3.000, but the friendship of tho prlnco may ho counted upon to boom tho particular wine dealt In by Keppel's llrm. In splto of this limited Income, the Keppels are very smart and very extravagant. The prlnco nover falls to add their names to tho lists of guests which aro handed to him for np- proval, according to custom. They spent sovernl weeks at Marlenbad at tho same hotel In which tho prlnco was a guest. After tho duke of lllchmond refused to add tho name of Mrs. Oeorgo Keppel to ins distinguished guest list tho prlnco's equerry wrote that Mrs. Keppel had been received by tho queen and that, there fore, thero was no reason why the plain. bluff duke of lllchmond slimtid refuse to bow to the reigning queen of beauty. IJtit It Is pointed out that tho queen also re ceived Lady Warwick, Mrs. Cornwallls West, Mrs. Arthur Paget and many other beauties admired by tho prlnco of Wales and whose names were coupled with his by gossip not always kind. As Queen Victoria has a way of finding out If thero Is real reason for scandalous talk, nnd In such an event closing her doors to the offenders. It Is said that tho atten tion paid Mrs. Keppel by tho heir Is sim ply of Innocent admiration. Those who aro close to the prlnco say that this is tho only reason for tho talk which has been afloat for the past year, and as the prince lives In a great white light, his every movement Is commented upon to a degree to which any other man In Kngland would not bo subjected. The prince Is obliged by tho vory nature of things to stand a great deal of social boredom, and when he discovers n woman who Is pretty nnd bright at tho same time, ho Is foml of spending as much time as possible In her society. It Is his social and mental re laxation from tho cut-nnd-drlid affairs of his position as next to tho throne. The fact remains that ho Is very popular with all Englishmen, and while opinions differ as to his gallantry, It Is believed that his open admiration for a beautiful woman whom be himself crowns as queen of the hour is nn earnest plantonlc friendship. TWO OF LONDON'S NEW PLAYS Herod" la Ted loin ami "The Wisdom of the Wise" Is I.IKht and Innocent. (Copyright, 1900, by Press Publishing Co.) LONDON, Nov. 3. (New York World Ca blegram Special Telegram.) Stephen Phtllpp's blank verso tragedy, "Herod," thcugh of fine literary effort and excel lently produced by Deerbohtu Tree at Her Majesty's theater, Is not llkoly to provo a theatrical success. The dominance of Herod himself, with his monomanlacal pas sion for Marianne, combined with tho slow ness of action and the unrelieved somber ness of the story, render tho play tedious. Tree undergoes a terrific physical strain, starting at the boiling point and endeavor ing to keep on raising the temperature. Maud Jefferlea, while realizing all the beauty of Marianne, Is not sufllclently ro bust for the part. The one scene In which the thrco nets transpire presented a won dcrfully idealized plcturo of Oriental splen dor and color, whllo the costumes were gorgeous In the extreme. Mrs. Pearl Cralgic's new society comedy, "Tho Wisdom of the Wise," Is In re hearsal for production by George Alex ander. It Is pure comedy, entirely In nocent a diagram of a family quarrel. Il lustrating Its cause, methods of warfare, effects and the eventual peace. Her Idea Is expressed In Shelley's llneB: "The wise want love, and those who lova want wis dom." The period Is the present day and the events are supposod to take placo In a single evening.

"Three cargoes of Pocahontas coal," according to the Liverpool Journal of Commerce, "are going derelict to Mediterranean ports, no offer being obtained here.

Tho Chinese question continues to overshadow everything else here, tnt Tageblatt today printing a special from Pelilii, dated October 29, saying: A detachment of the Second German Infantry, under Major von Forstcr, has fought a victorious engagement against a vastly superior Chinese forco of regulars In a mountain pass near the Chinese wall not far from Tsl Ting Kuan, l'lvo guns wcro taken by assault nnd thn German flag was hoisted. Major von Forster was wounded, Boven other Germans were wounded or killed and tho Chinese lost fifty dead." Confidence Is expressed in the press, now that regular telegraph connection has been established with Pekln, that news from tho Chinese seat of action, especially the news of tho Ocrman achievements, will como plentifully. The opinion Is generally held that the military operations aro by no means over, but that the Chinese troops have, thus far, lacked organization nnd a plan of campnlgn, and It is surmised that Prlnco Tuan, whom tho Chinese report as having fled, Is really quietly reorganizing the Chinese forces for a winter's campaign. This opinion Is held here, even In high military circles. The statements In the Hrltlsh press that the Russians do not show Field Marshal Count von Waldersee proper attention and obedience aro not credited here. In fact, Von Waldcrseo's own official reports con tradict these statements. He cables that the reception which the Russians accorded hlra overywhero was highly satisfactory nnd enthusiastic, and he has expressed In a cablegram to tho czar tho highest appre ciation of tho Russian troops. Von Wal derseo has also expressed formally his thanks therefor to tho Russian commander. General Llnevltch. Authoritatively, the correspondent of the Associated Press learns that Germany does not Intend to send any moro troops to China unless un forscen circumstances arise. Autl-rrnlnn Feeling In "WnrtemlMirc A sensation was created throughout Ger many by this week's debates and action in the Wurtemburg legislature anent tho measure of Independence to bo accorded to the Wurtemburg army. Tho chamber of deputies, by an almost unanimous vote, declared It was the deslro of the Wur temburg people that the Wurtemburg army corps be comandcr, high nnd low by Wur tcmburgcrs and not by Prussians and that the moneys saved In maintaining tho army corps flow Into tho Wurtemburg treasury exclusively. Tho Wurtemburg premier, Daron von Mtttnacht, and other members of Wurtom burg's cabinet In the main were not op posed to this attitude of the legislature, which the Berlin press Interprets as sadly antl-nattonallstlc and as showing a stroug antl-Prusslan sentiment. Kulser Opposes Iteturn of Jesuits. Regarding the statements made that Count von Buelow, the Imperial chancellor, does not oppose the recall of the Jesuits to Germany, the Associated Press cor respondent learns reliably that this Is un true and that Count von Buelow, no more than Prlnco Hobenlohe, would go counter to the emperor's firm will In this matter, his malcsty opposing the recall.

(New York World Cablegram Special Telegram.) Thn cabi net reconstruction uffords a splendid Illus tration of Lord Salisbury's contempt, alike for public opinion nnd tho feeling of his own supporters. Tho latter aro completely dumbfounded by his calmly Ignoring nil his ante-electlon pledges, that tho ministry should be reconstructed on thu strongest possible Hues. Salisbury has merely shifted two quite undistinguished nnd un promising under secretaries, tho earls of Melbourne, and Brodcrlck, to havo chargo of the War department and tho Admiralty, hnvtng flrst promoted Lansdownc, tho couutry's Intended scapegoat, to tho most Important olhce in the state. Tho extent to which Salisbury confines his chotco of ministers within tho family clrclo or tho rndtuB of the small nnd exclusive Cecil Balfour coterie, Is most Interesting, lxird Sclborune Is Salisbury's only son-in-law. Btoderlck's wlfo Is a sister of Lord Klcho, whose wlfo Ib a sister of Georgo Wyndham, Both women possess exceptional talent and beauty, and have exercised a paramount Influence for years on Arthur Balfour's politics. Tho two Balfours aro, of course, Salisbury's nephews. Lord Balfour of Bur leigh, secretary for Scotland, Is their cousin. If the duke of Devonshire and Joseph Chamberlain are Included, the rela tives and connections of tho prime min ister which constitute this group would be the. really ruling body of the government, tho remainder being more ciphers. By taking Brodcrlck and Selbourne Into the cabinet, for which promotion Balfour of Burleigh Is also named, the Cecll-Dalfour ring Is made numerically moro powerful, gteatly to Chamberlain's chagrin and dis appointment, as It Is antagonistic to the fulfillment of tils supremo ambition. To bar Chamberlain's path to the premiership is Salisbury's main object, In which ho Is acting In concert with the queen, who re gards the growth of Cbamucrlain's Influ ence with positive terror- DUKES IN DEMAND AS MAYORS liondnn Ilnrona-h Electors Itnn to Oronud-t.aiullords In Choos tnir FlHurehenils.

The gen oral result of the new London borough elections Is to place the deciding volco in a majority of the twenty-eight new corpora tions In the hands of the so-called In dependent or non-partisan members. Tho first ambition of the new municipalities seems to bo to get great titled ground-landlords as mayors. The duke of -Norfolk Is tho first mayor of Westminster, the duke of Bedford of Bloomsbury. Viceroy Cndogan of Chelsea, tho marquis of Northampton of Ftnsbury, Lord Portman of Pnddlngton and the duke of Portland of Marylebone.

On tho thltd day nlone 4,657 voters were regis tered In Omaha and 1,139 In South Omaha (aggregating &,750, a remarkably heavy third i day's registration. The most notable featuro disclosed by tho 1 registration lists Is tho pronounced drift i toward republicanism evidenced by the , answers given to the inquiry about party aflllintlons. Out of tho 26,093 voters reg istered in the two cities 14,333 recorded themselves publicly ns republicans, whllo only 8,347 admitted being democrats and 3.SS1 declined to give an answer.

At the republican headquarters where tho returns wero brought in nnd tabulated, tho managers regarded the figures with the ut most satisfaction.

SIMLA, India, Nov. 3. New York World Cablegram Special Telegram.) Lady Cur zon (who was Mary Letter) recently caused a convulsion among tho viceregal entourage by directing that tho aides-de-camp who accompanied her carriage when driving without tho viceroy should wear their full uniform. This distinction hitherto was only claimed by tho viceroy. Tho aides-de-camp threatened to strike and, despite everything the viceroy could do. absolutely refused to accede to tho vlcerelno's ro quest. Sho accordingly gracefully with drew It. Simla society Is notoriously lax and tho vlceernlno's Inflexible attitude In matters of morals las raised considerable hootillly ngainst hor lu tlu oniulal eut. On this account every assertion of her dignity Is made tho subjeot of scathing comment and pretensions aro attributed to her which she ncer tnttrtnlncd.

The most popular method of expressing patriotic re joicing In tho recent London street war celebrations was for peoplo to ram peacock feathers Into each other's faces. Until a few years back similar seutlments found vent In squirting water, usually dirty, from leaden tubes. This practice was forbidden by police regulations, so tho feather "tiddlers" cre adopted Instead.

Thero has been no relaxation In tho vigor with which the campaign was prosecuted; business has ro malned remarkably good during nil tho tlmo. tho activity being unquestionably due to the public confidence in the success of tho republican national ticket and the continua tion of tho wlso policy that hns brought about the era of unexampled prosperity In which overy citizen of thlH great country has a share.

It will bo noticed that, despite tho bombastic and flamboyant clnlms of Chairman Jones of the democratic committee and Vico Chnlr man Edmlston of tho populist wing of the fusion comblno, the claims made for thn ropubllcan states they say they will carry nre half-hearten and not put forth with tho coutidenco born of conviction.

Undoubtedly Indiana line been the srent battleground In the states of the middle west. Lvory vote has teen thoroughly contested. The majority for the republican ticket will be (n excess of 20.0"Q. It is ns certain as anything cun bo that Kansas. Wyoming. South Dakota nnd Vnhlngton will be cnrrled by the re-pub-llcnnn by decisive majorltley and the stntes pf Nebraska. Ctnh and Nevada are more likely to givo their votes to McKlnley thv.i to liryan. The results of thn campaign Indlcnto clearly that tho ndmlnlstsntlnn of Pre.'l dent McKlnley will he sustained bv the peoplo and Hint ho will nccurn n larger vote than In 1W5. both of tho popular vote and In tho electoral college. JONES PUTS UPUSUAL BLUFF Clinlrmnn of Ilemocrntlc 'ntloual Committee TnlK to Keep Up i III Couraite, CHICAGO, Nov. 3. Chairman Jones of tho democratic national committee fur nished the Associated Press tonight with tho following statement, covering the out look from his standpoint: The fight Is won. liryan and Stovcnson will bo elected. The denv crutl; majority In tho electoral collego will be ample. Thn democrats will hold all tho mutes thov carried In ISM. with th possible nxoep tlon of Wyoming. We will also 'nrry New Yurk.

Ths campaign has been a spirited ono trom th.i stnrt. The democrats wero somewhat hnndlcnpped for want of funds, while tho republican, us four years ngo. had moro money than they could use. Tho repub licans havo endeavored to Intimidate labor ing men and alorm builnesR men, but not with tho fierce oppression they brought to bear In Ml It Is my opinion that Intim idation has been n failure this year and that both worktngmen nnd business men will vote according to the dictates of con science. Of course tho trusts, tho creat nggrega tlnim of combined capital, the seekers fur franchises In Porto ltlco und tho Philip pines, tho promoters and exploiters gener ally havo spared no effort, and will spars no effort, to re-olect McKlnley. It Is mv firm bollef. however, that the electorate cannot bo debauched this year to a sum dent extent to throttle the public will. Thn country Is nroui-od u It line not been lno th days preceding thn civil war. The : Mencn of the form of government estab lished by the fathers Is nt stake. Whether the trust shall govern tho country or the country reirulato tho trusts must be de- elded. It will bo found when tho votis nro rounted that tho people have deter mined with emphasis that tho republic must be preserved, thnt the power of tho trust.i must bo curbed; that th) man is to bn considered before tho dollar and that thn volco of the people ennnot bo suppressed by attempted Intimidation or corruption. The states that will vote for Mr liryan will show that the peonlo have confidence In him from the Atlantic to the Pacini, und from tho northernmost to the southern most boundaries of thn republic.
