Lord Iddeslelgh. llo died of sjneopo of Iho

around which on Immense crowd Is gathered
in Downing sticct. Ho died , siy the vvNo

lihjslclan , Dr. Granvllle , said this evening
that what Is oflcn called apoplcxj' , or con

A jear ago last Julj SlrbttlToid Northcoto

rnnoblo him for his baronetcy dated from Kill
nnd Ids lirst traced ancestor died In 1103.
When he was made foreign secretary last
nutumn hecamolnto friction in tlio cabinet
with I.old Kniicloluh Churchill Just as he had
licen In friction with him , ns Is well known ,
In the commons. Lord Salisbury practically
turned Lord Idduslclgh out last neck and
took the foreign olllco himself. Some news-
jnpcrs have spoken unkindly about tlnsu
dllTcrcnccs within the past few dajs.

Only two dajsaco his sou , vv ho will now
micceed as the second eail , sent to the dally
papers this card , vv hlch Is peculiarly Interest
ing under to-day's ovcut :
"Allowmo to contradict In jour inner as
to the health of Lord Iddleslcigh. It Is not
true that my father vvaslll and dejected when
In Devonshire last week. Ho has not suf
fered from tlio ardotis work of the foreign
olllco and ho is not about slxty-nlno years
uf age. It has been the universal opinion of
Ids family , friends nnd medical advisers that
Iho Inteiestlng duties on which ho has been
engaged for the last few mouths hnvo had a
cncllclal effect on his health , and that ho Is
nctually better and stionger at the present
tlmo than ho has been Mnco ho loft the house
of commons , Your obedient servant ,

This card was much commented upon be
cause Hurke's "Ptuiage" showed the earl tel
l > o In tils sixtj-ninth j car , and the statement
of his ago In the caul was thought deslgnous
nnd tending to discredit the rest.
HIS LAST woitic.

pisses without some lunatic trjing to force
Ills way Into the kaiser's palace. It Is not
always the same lunitlc , for each tlmo thu
disturber Is aricsted , Hut nearly all the
cranks In question have hitherto had a
strange family likeness and have acted moro
or less In the same fashion. A worklngman
w ho vv as arrested a couple of day s ago marked
a now departure. Ho might bo described as
a Dllssful Hulgaroinanlac. A policeman
grabbed him as ho was trying to smuggle
himself Into the hall ot the palace. On his
being examined at the police station tlio
prisoner remonstrated with his captors.
"You must let me go , " he said. "I have
been appointed piluco of Hulgarla by an
angel with glittering robes. The angel said :
'Get thee unto the German kaiser , thoti fouith
godhead , ( vlcrte gotthelt ) , and tell him
thy name Is Augustus , prince of Hulgarla.
Jov and glailncss shalt thou bring unto the
world because thou has power to banish

Having delivered himself of the icmark-
able statement the prisoner relapsed Into

Lovnox. Jan. 11. I New Yoik Herald Cable
ble- Special to the Hi.E.J A cable dispatch
from New York to the Field , lespecting the
ocean sweepstakes laces , sajs tliat the
owner of Coionet has issued a challenge ,
nnd that jachts aio ready to join fn the race.
This dispatch , notwithstanding that such
particulars ol the iaco as jet known hero arc
but scanty , excited great interest in the/
jacht clubs , although the jubilee race con
tinues at tlio fore. 1 found Lord Alfred Pa
ger , vlco commodoio of tholtoval Thames
Yacht club , and owner ot the jachts , Alice
( ninety tons ) , the banta Cecilia Oil tons )
and the Maiia ( : :10 : tons ) couitcously willing
to talk about the svv eotstakcs. He is a son of
the great Wateiloo hero , the lust marquis of
Anslesov , and Is himself a gonei.it in the
army , an ex-mombei of paillamont , and over
since 1810 mitshal in the queen's household
although seventy-six voais of oge. I saw him
at his tesideiicc , No. M Queen Ann stieet , a
blulf and heaity gentleman who seemed to bo
about foitj-live. A conldor and drawing
loom into which I pissed had the ceilings
and walls fiescoed with ocean views , yachts
and sporting Incidents.
7.0UI ) Ai.mnn's UVVDSIIAKK
washeaitv , as ho said : "Let the Herald tell
every Ameilcan j-achtsmin you have got to
( omoovei , but , joking aside , 1 am delighted
lit the pioipect ol seeing homo Ameiican
jachts ovei heio thN season. Tell them 1 , as
v Ice commodore of the Koy.il Thames 1 acht
club , of which the mince of Wales Is com
modore , promise them now an honorary
membership ot tlio club. 1 will bo glad to
beat full paiticulaiaas to the names of the
yachts which are coming , etc. , so that 1 can
personally arrange bomo festivities after
they have got heio , "
"The race that will suit them next best Is
our channel race. Pri/es of course , they
will win. Why it bhould not do to let them
go back whipped , be-ildos there ere the Capo
May and Hicntonrcct cups over hcio which
thej must tiy to regain. I hope some , If not
all , will enter foi our jublleo race , complete
details of which , now that the Amei leans aio
coming , shall verv shortly bo announced. "
mi : coii \ r
will , I believe , bo mound lieland , not as
su.'gctted to the A/oics 01 to Gibraltar , be
cause if It were to ellliei of these places the
jacht's would not bo seen uftin- leaving
until thulr retuin , whereas uioitnd Ireland
they could bo signalled from many points. 1
can only add , tell them to como and wo will
lrc.it them as biothcrs.uot as strangers. Why
American audKnsllshjachtman aid closer ,
I bcllevo that oven brothers. Did
jou say the Dauntless is tomlng ?
Why wo know her well as an
old ocean racer. I don't ulvo jou my full
vluws about the prospects ot the sweepstakes
race , because I do not yet know the full pai-
tkulars. "
Secretary Grant , of the Hoyal Yacht squad
ron at Cow es , sijs : "I have heard of tha
Coronet's thallengo with giuat pleasure , I
consider the race a most excellent and spoils-
manlike idea ono that will give a stimulus
to vacht-iaclng lu this countrv , which Is
much needed. The owners of American
j adits are Mire to meet vv 1th most cordial re
ceptions at Cowesandat all othci yachting
centprs they may visit. The Coronet herself ,
ovcrjouo thought wlio saw her hero last sea-
Con , Is n firm seigolni ? schooner , As to her
speed , we had no opportunity of Judging :
iiOvertheloss she should h.xvo a good chance
In the challenge race , hut 1 am afraid she
would find our Solent course lather
cramped. "
1 next called upon Captain Scovcll.sccretiry
of the Hojal Thames vacht club , in Albe-
marlo street , who hod his table covered with
heaps of lett.cn and checks. He said , with a
plea ant musical brogue. "All I knovvjctH
thatAinerlcan jachtiucn are comlnir on to the
sweepstakes i.icc. Let me tell them that I , on
behalf of thu members of thn Hoj-al Thames
j acht club , look forvvaid with great pleasure
to the proposed race. 1 promise them
Ilir HKAiniKST OllhKTtNO.
It was with the object of Inducing Ameri
can and jaclits ot other nations to enter our
jublleo ocean race that our committee offered
Bitch a rlctt pri7c , albeit only half
the monster sweepstake prize. I
think gic.at cicdit Is duo to Mr. Hush and
these who have already accepted Ills chal-
Icnco for encaging In such an ocean race. It
must do a gie.it deal of good In the luteicst
ot jachtlni ! tioth hero nnd in America.
Doubtless tlio live jachts may Increase to a
dozen In all. "
I then visited the club house of the Hoyal
London Yacht club , In Silrloiow , which has
a branch house at Covves. Mr. George W.
Charlwood , the secret at y , said , smlllnirlv :
"Speaking on behalf of the mcmbcis ot this
club , 1 say to the owners of the Ooronot ,
Dauntless , and other yachts , como along ; wo
shall give jou n thoroimh Lngllsh welcome.
Personallv , I don't think American j-achts
have much chance against our ciacks , unless
tlioMajllovvcr , Puritan and Prlscilla come
over. Hut thcso others otieht certainly to pick
up some rich plums out of what 1 may call
our Jublleo regatta. Wo shall feel honored If
some of thorn enter for our annual logatta
at Covves In the beginning ol August.
OurCommotloie bli Geoigo Curtis Lampoon ,
the former owner of the schooner Mci.anda ,
and now the owner of a steam jacht of the
same name , retains trom cruising In the
Mcdltcnauean this week , so that by the end
of the month i may bu able to tell jou all
about
Tim nm juniLnn r i7i\
This club may oiler a slmllai pilro to that
offered by the Hoyal Thames. The nile for
races around the coasts Is that the entries
aroonly demanded foitj'-elglit house bcfoio
the event , so that tlio American jachts In
such i.aces will have plenty of scope lot en-
teilng when they arrive. "
Major Lwlug.ovvuorof the 230-ton schooner
Giicndolluc , 1 found at his home , No. 95 ,
Gloucester place , Portmas sqtiaie. llo was
busy with his luncheon , and while thus
engaged ho said : "I , as a jaclitsman
and a member of the sailing committee of
the Hojal Thames jacht club , will extend to
the American yachts n hearty welcome. 1
am sure they will bavo the bame greeting
overywheie. I know the Dauntless and
Sappho very well , but 1 am afiold they will ,
like my Gwendoline , bo outsailed by the
crack English yachts. Still there will bo
plenty of races In which they can compote
and 1 think with a flir chaiiwo of success.
Hut everything will depend upon the
weather. I would very much like the
Ameiican j-achts to enter for our jublleo
laces , lei , after the boating they gave us last
jear , it would bo only lair and spoitmanllko
If wo beat them this. Above all , 1 should
dearly HUe to seethe Majllowcr and Puiltan
como over , but I suppose that won't be. "
f sent a Herald card to Mi. Dlxon Kemp at
his residence , No. 39 , Palace Garden 'IVrace ,
Kensington. Ho is a designer and j-acht
owner and the yachting cditoi of the Field.
Ho Is icgarded as an undoubted authorltj' In

than an j- jet given. I had a lettoi a few
days ago from Mr. Tankcivillo Chombci-
Ijne , In which ho sajs ho Is anxious to race
his old Anovv a.aln. 1 am sine every jachts-
inan in Kngland will oxcit himself to glvo
our American * v Isitors a great welcome. He-
sides there is no doubt municipal and other
public bodies that will also tetc them , but
wo can not pretend to get up such
a display as was shown last vcar in Now
York bay when the Galatea was there.slmply
because London , unlike New Yoik , is so far
lemovcd from the seaboard. 1 had lio.nd
there was to bo be a steam j'achtr.iee across
the Atlantic. Had that been so thoie would
notliavo been the slightest iutciest taken
hern about It , but an ocean iaco among
American j-aclits uiiiici tlicirvvlilto spicading
canvas sails arriving hero In Knglind will
cause such genuine excitement thioughout
the yachting world as has never bplorc ex
isted. With all my heart 1 say to Ameiluan
yachtsmen , como and wo will give jou a
heart j Lndisli welcome. "
The great mnjoiity of the best known
j acht ow uers aio still liolid ly making out of
town. The lew 1 saw who aio not = owell
known in America simply ie echoed with de-
llclit thu e.xpiessions of welcome above

In public with the real of a fanatic nud with
such skill as to sllenco the average debater.

doubtedly pass , and Mi. Calnc , ns well as the
Gentiles ol the tciritory , ibclio\o the church

Tlio debate In the seu.xto on the Inter-state
commerce bill will bo continued through the

is anxious to obtain a vote , but as there Is no
means of cmtaillnc the debate in the senate ,
he must wait patiently until the seiiatois o.x-
liaust themselves It Is expected that the
question w 111 bo disposed ot about the mid
dle ot the ( online week. Theic seems to bo
consiclor.iDle misundoistanding about the par-
llimentaiy status pf this bill. It was
rtusbcd by each house , wlth dlsaciecing

report Is now betoro the senate. The report
cannot bo altered or amended , and each
