THE CONSTITUTION “ among the few great newspapers publishing daily editfbns on the side of
the people against European Domination of our money system, and it heartily advocates:
1st. The Free Coinage of Silver, %
Believing that the establishment of a single gold standard will wreck the prosperity of the great masses
of the people, though it may profit the few who have already grown rich by federal pcptectiou and federal
subsidy.
2d. Tariff Reform,
Believing that by throwing our ports open to the markets of the world and levying only enough import
duties to pay the actual expenses of the government, the people will be better served than by making
them pay double prices for protection’s sake.
3d. An Income Tax,
Believing that those who have mnch property should bear the burdens of government in the same pro¬
portion to those who hare little.
OUR LUiMJUiN
London, Oct., 19.—Prince
dinand of Bulgaria is at
reaping the fruits of his patient
persistant efforts toward
, the recognition of the great
which has so long been denied
hiin, and the lack of which
hitherto tended to render his posi
tion extremely awkward. For,
having -sent a telegram of
lence to the new czar, in which he
expressed the sorrow of all Bui
garians for the death of an emper
or who had contributed so much
ward their liberation and indepen
deuce, he rectived a most cordially
worded reply from Nicholas 11.,
the first official communication that
has reached Sofia from the Russian
court and government since a year
before the abdication of Prince
Alexander in 1885.
Almost at the same time there
arrived ' at Sofia from Constanti
nople the highest decoration that
the sultan has in his power to be¬
stow—namely, the grand cordon of
the Osman ieh— for the Bulgarian
prince minister Stoiloff, who was
educated by American missionaries
at the Roberts college in Constan¬
tinople, and speaks English per¬
fectly. *■
Simultaneously the grand cordon
of the Order of the Medijeh was
conferred upon Prince Ferdinand’s
minister of foreign affairs, while
an autograph letter from the sultan
handed by the Turkish com
to Prince Ferdinand,
thanking him warmly for the mag
mWj. jeweled casket containing
S- Ttl phic views of the recent
□ at Phillipopolis which
* sent to the sultan a few

iLe P r * nce °f an y
minister receiving a decoration
from the subl me po. te. Inasmuch
as Germany, Austria and Great
Britain have all expressed their
readiness to officially recognize
Prince Ferninand, and have in
structed their diplomatic agents and
envoys at Sofia to hold intercourse
with him—they are only debarred
from wearing* their uniform in or
dcr to mark the semi-officialcharac
ter of their position at the court of
Sofia—the full recognition may be
expected to follow in a short time,
'
I mentioned in these columns the ,
other day the scandal which has
been created in court circles both
at Berlin and Copenhagen by the
appearance of a phamphletin which
the Countess Adelaide Schimmel
mann, for so many years lady in
waiting to the late Empress Au¬
gusta, and a large beneficinary un¬
der her majesty’s will, related how
she had been arrested during her
stay at Copenhagen and conveyed
to a lunatic asylum, where 6he had
been detained a close prisoner for
three months, Until the fact that
she was perfectly sane and illegal¬
ly kept under restraint was brought
to light by a casual and unexpect¬
ed visit of the state commissioners
of lunacy.
She also described in this pham
phlet that when liberated she dis¬
covered that the brother who had
caused her incarnation had taken
advantage of her stay in the asylum
to secure the legal control of her
large property, leaving her, entire
y destitute. On this phamphlet
being circulated, the brother, (Jount
Schimmelmann, attempted to in
sinuate that it was me djKthe work
of an tcsesponsibiepei an, and that
no attention should* b paid there*
to.
The grand duchess Elizabeth of
Meek fenberg. with whom the
countess is now stopping and who
is a warm friend of the poor lady,
has had her examined by the lead
ing specialists in Germany on men
tal disorders, who declared her to
be perfectly sane.
While on the one hand the Prus
sian minister of justice has annul 1
ed the order vesting the control ,of
the countess’ fortune in the hands
of her brother, the Danish legisla
ture has called upon the Copenha
gen government to take steps to
bring to trial the director of the lu
natic asylum where the countess
was confined, all the more as this
j g ^ t kj rt i scandal of the kind in
which he has been implicated.
It seems that one of these cases
in which the director of the es
tablishment, a certain Dr. Pon to
piddan, had been involved, was in
with the illegal deten
tion it a Sweedish nobleman, and
a commission has now been dis
patched by the Danish minister of
to Copenhagen to secure
upon the subject.
On mentioning the. engagement
Lord Carnarvon to Miss Womb
well the other day I forgot to refer
to his responsibility for bringing
brown leather boots into fashion.
When he took to yachting be made
it a rule that no ladies and no black
shoes were to be allowed on board.
At every port where he put in
friends who wished to see him had
first to provide themselves with a
pair of russet-leatber shoes before
they came on board. It now ap¬
pears that one of these regulations
is to be suspended—namely, that
prohibiting the presence of ladies
on the yacht, but I have thus far
been unable to discover whether
the ukage on the subject of russet
shoes is to remain in existence.
Lord Carnarvon’s present income
is about $400,000 a year and thi
will be almost trebled V the con
