NEW YORK , Oct. 12.-Speclal ( Tele-
grcrn.-Seldotn ) Is I given a diplomatist to
mhunderstand completely both the nation to
whIch he Is sent as envoy and his own.
Lord Sackvle has attained that superex-
celence of diplomatic unfncs" , I was In
order to diecredit Mr. Bayard In England
that he printed the pamphlet of which Mr.
Ballard Smith cabled the chIef part to the
New York World. I Is evident from the
comments of the Englsh press that he has
succceded only In discreditng himself. That
Is proof enough that he docs not understand
the sentIments of honor and decency which
Influence his own countrymen , and his pamphlet -
phlet Is more than Proof enough that he
knows nothing about the United States ,
where 4e lived for seven years as British
minister.
Lord Sacltfle was known In Washington
as a weI meanIng , shy , silent , duI man ,
whose highest ambition was to transact the
routine business of his legation. lie had
been minIster before that to the Argentine
Republic , and then to MadrId , where he . had
previously been secretary of legatlon. .Ils
Position In Madrid was affected by a social
indiscretion , dating from his resIdence as
secretary , which later led I to some domestic
entanglements well calculated to have
caused him trouble , especially In Washington ,
but for the kindly silence of that American
press whIch he now reviles. Transferred
from the legaton In Madrid , which ho , : .a'
occupied as minIster for three years , to
: Washington , he seems to have disembarrassed
his mind wllh difficulty of the notion that
social Ideas are the same In Anglo-Saxon as
In Latin races and that time social laxites
which were tolerated In Madrid and Buenos
Ayres would bo condoned with equal fa-
duty tn Washington. Some good natured
efforts were made to undeceive hIm before
he left London for his new mission and unsuccessful -
successful attempts jnade to protect him
. against the consequences of his early mis-
talles. They were not occasioned entirely by
E3mpatlmy with Lord Sackvlo himself.
SA VIm DY A SUBOItDINATF1
Such measure dt social and diplomatic success -
cess al he attained In Washington was due
to a member of his legation , who had the
.viticli the minister
quickness and tact In . .hlch
himself was denclent. I happened unluckily -
ily that this Invaluable advIser was absent
\y
from Deverly , where Lord Saclvle was
staying for the summer , when the Murchi-
eon letter reached him. The bewildered
.1plomat ' t , left to himself , fell an easy
prey to the designing Osgood , whose share
In this enterprIse was I discreditable one
to himself nOd his country. Lord Sack-
yule's unassisted mlml , was not open to tha
tolerably obvious truth that It wa ! not the
duty or an EnglIsh minister to advise Amert-
cans whom they ought to elect as presillent.
Ito wrote the letter and the republicans
1 . made mo of It , which we all remember.
J I may be worth recalng , however , that
the value of It dawned but slowly on the
party leaders The first easter paper to
publish It was the Now York Tribune , anti
, pUblsh
, of so little confcquenc3 dId the editor of
that paper think the letter that It was
printed on an inside page In small type , and ,
I believe , without editorial comment. A day
or two later It was republished conspicuously ! -
ouslY , and the tumul began which wa to
end lu Lord Sackvlllo's expulsion from the
country.
MERITED IllS DS nSSAL.
Ie deferved his fate and the lessen of It
was I useful one , but the manner of his dls-
missal was needlesslY ahrupt. This tt was ,
amid not the dismissal Itself , which gave
Lord S.slisbury and the Engl . h press what ,
ground they had for complaint. No Euro-
pe:1 : diplomatist. nobody who knew what
reserve diplomacy exacts from him who
practices It as a profession , ever Justified
Lord Sacllvle or denied that he had made
a mistake fatal to his diplomatic reputation.
Alt they urged was that Prshlent Cleveland
and "Ir. Bayal'll hall acted with precipitation
ali harshness. There wa ' , of curs , the
Imminent presidential ele'cton , and there
was the telegram from the democratic na-
'tlonal committee : "Doe& the president
Imow that the Irish vote Is slipping out of
our hands ? " and there was the lmress In Its
most temimestuous mood. and there was bc-
yond doubt a strong and just popular feeling
that tie Drltsh minIster eught to go.
I would have ben possible , neyerthe-
less tl avoid offense . An attempt was made
to Induce I.orl Salisbury to recall his plenl-
10tentary , but Lord Salisbury refused , on
Ihe grounll , which was true , that to recall
blot would be to end hlH diplomatc career.
The only remark needed on that Is that the ' .
dlHmls11 ended his diplomatic career just as I.
effectually.
I.onSackyile has been In retirement ever
since , 1111 emerges now with I Confidential
letter frLI Lord Salbul whIch he branlH bes

CONFUSiON MORE CONI.'USED.
The situation at Constantinople Is as con-
fused as ever , though some kInd of order
has been restored In the streets and the
Armenian "lcUns of Armenian plotH have
thought I safe to leave the churches , which
for I time were their only protection against
MU8uhnan mobs and' the sultan's Police.
The II effect of these disturbances Is wearIng

are conditions out of which I disaster to
Turkey amid a peril to European peace may
easily spring. There scouts no reason to
doubt that the new grand vizier , Klaml
Pasha , Is doing his best In the Interests
of peace , but much doubt whether his In-
nuence with his master wi avail.
FRANCE fN
FlANCE MADAGASCAH.
The I.'rench are In Antananarivo "after a
brilliant acton , " says General Duchesne , who
commands the InvdIng forces. Particulars
of Idled and wounded on either silo are yet
to come. The last "brilliant action" before
this . ' resuled In the rout of 6,000 Io\as , with
a French loss of killed
no kied ali three wounded ,
which seems a pretty chlap kind of glory.
A considerable IJrton of the American press
applauds this conquest of Madagascar , pure
buccancerlng though It be What would the
same journals have sid If England had attacked -
tacked an almost defenseless people on
equally frIvolous pretexts and annexed a vast
territory to which she has no shadow of
rightful claim _ The French , It Is true , to
whom words often mean more than things ,
cal their annexation I protectorate. We
know what that Is. I Is true also that General -
oral Duchesne's success has a political value
at home and strengthcns the Hbot ministry ,
which a defeat would Ilrobahly have over-
thrown. The lost Independence of Madagascar -
car becomes tim foundnton stone of a republican -

It can.
WHAT LmDKNECHT lAS ACHIEVED.
The German socialists have hall an Inter-
cst'lg week at Breshium. Their congress can
Imrdly be called a success from their own
point of view , but they have done a public
service by exhibiting under a strong lght I

posals They have raged agaInst the em-
peror , clamorlll ! or the . erthrow of the Ger-

their exclusion from parlamentray once , organized -
ganized I procession to the tomb of Lasale

stand his trIal on a charge , not , I think , of
high treason , as the dispatches say , but of in-
suiting the emperor , which Is a lesser form of
treason Anywhere ) but In Germany herr
Llebknecht might well enough be let alone.
But Germnny , ns Mr. Louis Stern knows to
his cost , Is a country wll re I Is a crlmllal
offense to speak with unabated breath to the

German emperor Is a personage even more

There has been a recrudescence of yachtIng -
ins literature In the shape of violent letters
to a sllortng weekly In London 1d violent
editorial comments on them. None of these
deserve notice . The Field , the sporting

rancorous toward America as If It were n

Watson , the yacht designer , that nobody yet
knows whether Detention or Vallyrie be thc

There has been also a Parnelite conven-

announces when the next war breaks nut the

BERLIN , Oct. 12.-The socialist convention -
tel at Dreslal has been followed by the
general public with a great deal more Inter-
eeL than was the case wih the convention of
1894 at rankfort. The warring elements
within the socialist party have been sharply
arrayed against each other. The younger ,
more practical and moderate wIng of the
party , though two of its ablest leaders , Her-
ecu Volmar and GrUemberger , were absent
through ill-health , displayed great strength.
This was mote especially the case during the
long and biter fight whIch was waged over
the agrarian IJrogram. The Llebknecht wing
of the party , however , Is still dominant and
the small farmers and farm hands throughout
Germany will therefore not yet be welcomed
within the ranks of the socialist armny The
convention was In accordance with the special
instructions ISGue' by Herr von Koeler , the
Prussian mInister of the Interior , and was
under severe police superlLn , Consequently
the noIsy party demonstrations which had
been planned could not be carried out A
number of foreign delegates , especially the
Austrian delegate , Dr. Elenberg , were ex-
polled by the police on the ground that they
were obnoxious foreigner
A sensational feature of the conventIon was
the presence of the Duchess Pauline Ma-
thida of Wurtemburg , now the wife of a
wealthy physIcian of flreslau named Wi-
11am. This lady , who Is decdely eccentric ,
was attired In a namIng red blouse , and she
manifested her Intense socialism by frequently -
quenty applauding the most excited utterances -
ances of the speakers , to demonstrate , appar-
enty , that she was In hearty sympathy wIth
made. the most radical remarks and propositions
CORRECTED TIE CLEHGnfAN.
The marriage of Duchess Paulne "fathlda
of Wurtemburg to Dr. William was a most
romantic affair. The doctor , who Is I handsome -
some and amiable gentleman , was summoned
to Carlsruhe to attend a member of the ducal
family of 'urtemburg who was seriously
'
ill. This was In 1880 , and the Duchms Paul-
Ine. , who was frequently thrown Into the
society of the doctor In the course of his
professional visits to the castle . fell In love
with him , and fnaly notified her family
that she intended to marry the good looking
physician. At first the family strongly opposed -
posed the match , but when It was seen that
the duchess would have her way In any case ,
a reluctant consent was given. At the wed-
dIng ceremony , the clergyman who onclated
pointed out the different positions In life of
the young couple , remarking incidentally that
the duchess had come down to the rank of
her husband. Thts caused the bride to exclaim -
claim warmly that she -did not share the
clergyman's vIew of the case , and that , on
the contrary , she looked up to her husband
as an equal. Contrary to general exp cta-
tons the marriage has been a most happy
one , and the dnchess assists her husband
very effectively In his practice , aClompanylng
him , especially on his visits to poor patents ,
and bestowing gifts upon those she finds
to be time most In need If assistamice
CONFEDERATES ESCAPED.
All the persons arrested In the Cologne
espionage case have been taken to l.lpslg.
where they will be tried In the new Helchs-
gong building , which Is to be dedicated on
October 16 In tie presence of Emperor Wi-
lam of Germany and the king of Saxony.
The mInister of war , General Dronsart yon
Schelendort , has personally investigated the
case , and the opinion of the large general
star has beeu obtaIned of the affair , which
Is considered one ot the most Imllortant of
its kind which has been discovered In many
years. The principal defendant Is a man
named Paul Schoren , a native of the duchy
of Luxembourg , but a naturalized rench-
man. lIe graduated In ParIs at the tcole
Centrale , which he left with an engineer's
diploma. Schoren , H appears , had I number -
ber of confederates In I.uxembourg , but the
most Important of them seemed to have escaped -
caped to Switzerland , having In some unex-
plained manner been warned that they were
under suspicion , and their arrests were con-
templated. The evidence against all the
IJrlsoners In any case sunces to cnsure theIr
conviction. The persons In custody arc kept
strictly Isolated In the prison at Lelpslg.
ANTISOCALIST LAWS.

LONDON , Oct. l-The attention of the
world of politics has ben turned almost entirely -
trlly toward Constantinople during the past
week , while the Intereft of the world of
fashion and sport has been cetered at New-
market , especially on Wedncsday , when Mr.
Ballier's filly , Hock Dove , won the Czare-
witch stakes , anti yesterday when Mr. Leo-
pold de Itotimsclmlld's colt , St. rusquln , captured -
lured the Middle Park plate , the gre test
event for 2-year-olds , owing to the fact that
so . many Derby candidates were entered for
it. The gathering at Newmarlt wal' large
all decidedly aristocratic , In spite of the
fact that the weather was cold and stormy.
The prince of Wales Is understood to bo
much dlsappolnt at the performance of
lorlzel II. on Wednesday. Ito finished
fourth In the race for the Czarlwlch stakes ,
all the prince Is said to be equally put out
at the fact that his colt , Persimmon , could
do no better than third on the Itruggle for
the Middle Park plate yesterday The prince ,
It Is claimed , hall been very confident of cap-
turIng the Czarewltch , and hIs eldest son ,
the duke of York , was alto present at the
Newmarket , mainly In the hOle of seeing
his rather laml the prize with Florlzol 1 II.
But both the prInce and duke were doomed
to .1sallpolntment , The former , however ,
apparently resolved to console himself as
much as possible , for after time races yester-
day he started \\'arwlck caste on a visit
to the earl and Countess Warwlclt. The
later frt as Lady Brooke , all later
as Countess Warwlcll , has had the
prince at the head of her list of admirers
for years anti li st11 one of the 'great '
beauties of England , alhough she has a son
13 years' . old. Time prince will remain tie
guest of the carl and countess of Warwick
until Monday nlxt , The list of guests In-
vIed to meet the duke of York at Dunrobn !
last week Included tbe carl and countess of
WarwIck.
QUEEN VICTORIA RIDES DAILY.
The weather In Scotland recently has been
'
' '
very cold for this' timne of year especially ,
but It Is understood that Queen Victoria
has been driving about Dalmoral and Its
neighborhood at late hours In the afternoon
In an ohen vIctorIa , to the disniay of those ,
I who are continually dwelng upon the aging I
and apparently daily increasing helplessness
i and feebleness of her majesty .
Londoners , It appears , are now expected to
flock to a new attractiomm-a floating chamber
of horror which promises 10 ' rIval the chamber -
her of horrors at Mme. Tauezauti's famous
exhibiton , This floating exhibition of
terrible happenings of the llst Is an old
convict hulk the Success which
, , recently
arrIved here from Australia after , '
frm Australa , Arer a voyage
of five months duration . and which Is moored
at Dackwal , while bing prepared to receive
the public. The Success has been used for
exhibiton purposes In Australan water for
years past ; but just as she was upon the
poInt of being demolished site was purchased
from the government by speculators and
brought to this country. The hulk Is over 100
years 011 , and Il i the only one remaining of
the terrIble floating prisons established by
the government of the colony of VIctoria
from 1850 to 1855 as a result of the discovery -
covery of the gold fields of Denligo and
Dalarat , and the subsequent rush to the
colony of , among others , many thousand'
desperate , lawless men of nearly all natol-
filLies. side of convIct life In
altet Every le the old
days on board the hulk will be depicted upon
time Success , especially the different modes of
punishment and the speculators who have
purchased her expect to reap a small fortune
as the result of theIr stroke of enterprise.

MAY PURChASE TUnNlm'S HOUSE.
Folowing upon the purchnse for use as n
museum of the house formerly occupied by
the late Thomas Carlyle at Chelsea , and the
succePlful accomplshment of that undertak-
ing It has been proposed to purchas9 the
house formerly occupied by Turner , ' time great
gnglsl , painter , which Is also located at
Chelsea. The first Idea was to convert the
Tnrcr house into a museum , but that propo-
sion , wcl under way , wait suddenly kIlled
by the fact that some IJerln wrote to the
Tlmmaes throwing doubt upon the statements
that the house was really occupIed by
Turner , and hintng that I ho lld stay there
for a tme It was for purposes other than
those of art The prIce asked fur the property -
erty was $7.GO and woman has also guar-
anteel } to IJIY' tlls.sl. qimpr9perty In
order that I might be converted Into a
Turner museum , but the Intmation conveyed
In the communicaton to the Times was
more than the woman referred to could be
expected to bear up lnder , and she prompty
withdrew her offer to sUPPly funds for
the purpose of time house. Since then , however -
ever , It has been definitely establshed that
the house at Chelsea was really Turner's
residence and steps are again being tallen to
Ilrchase the house and convert it , wih
other9 alJolnlng , Into refuges or homes for
unfortunate Jndscap ; painters There seems
to b a prospect that the later plan may be
adopted. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
