She is a resident of Sydney. She said she had met Deeming on a steamer while going from Melbourne to Sydney. He had ac costed her in a friendlv manner, and with the usual absence of social restrictions that prevails among fellow travelers she had entered into conversation with him. He treated her with gentlemanly courtesy, and she became very much interested in him. He had impressed her with the belief that he was a individual of some consequence. He told her that he was Baron Swanston. This, by the way, is the title he assumed while he was in the Southern Cross gold fields, and ne signed it to a letter ne sent to the man agers of Frazer's gold mine, demanding part vi ms saiary inai ne ciaimea was aue mm.

London, April G. A large meeting of the Society of Arts was held this evening. Mr. McCormick, the Chicago Fair Com missioner, read an exhaustive paper on the future of trade relations between Great Britain and the United States. He gave a forcible array of statistics, showing that the "United States is England's best customer, and said that there was every reason why England should be well represented at the Chicago Fair. Replying to English criticisms on American tariff legislation, he denied that the McICinley law was specially aimed at England. That law, he said, was simply based upon intelligent self-interest, which was the motive of action of individ uals as well as of nations. He reverted to the English history of protection, proving that protection was maintained by England as long as it was expedient to maintain it, and that free trade was resorted to only when the position of Great Britain made protection hurtful. Mr. Galton, in proposing a vote of thanks to Mr. McCormick, said he could definitely announce that the British Government would more than double the present grant for the Chicago Fair, and that the society would abolish all charges for space. The announcement was received with cheers. The grant will probably amount to $300,000. ODE QTJABEEL WITH 8PAET. Tbe United States Appoints a Persona Non Grata as an Island Consul. Paris, April G.

BIG MEN SAID TO BE FOR HIM, Counting on Quay, Piatt, Foraker Ilatton to Help Posh Him. and YESTERDAY'S MINOR POLITICAL HEWS CsnciAL TiLxaajm to the dist-atch.1 Deteoit, April 7. "While thousands of General Alger's fellow oltisens in the City of Straits look upon his Presldental aspira tions in the light of a joke, and some leaders of his own party snicker is private over his ambition, the General and his little coterie and his organ, tbe Detroit Tribune, are saw ing wood. Since the General's return from his "Western trip activity among his hench men here has been renewed. One of Alger's most intimate friends was asked a few days ago what show he saw for his candidate, and he replied substantially: Do you know the power of Piatt In Now York Republican polltiosT Do you know what Matt Quay has done and can do in Pennsylvania? Are yon aware of tbe strength of Foraker in Ohio machine poli tics? Have you any acquaintance with Frank Hatton's pull in Iowut These are the gentlemen who have put strength into the Alger boom and unon whom the General depends to batter down tho Harrison breast works. Alger Is in close communication with all these wily politicians, ana he be lioves thev will control the great majority of the delegates from the four great States of New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Iowa. Tbe General bears daily from these leaders, and their representations are his only polit ical stock. He strongly believes that If he can secure a majority of the delegates from those States he can destroy tbe chances of Harrison and secure the nomination, and he also realizes that If those States go against him at Minneapolis on the first ballot his boom is frustrated for keeps. There Is the basis of the Alger boom. The information is as straight as if it had come from Alger. "With purses in the hands of able lieutenants, tbe Southern vote, the General believes, cau be secured. His lieutenants took it away from Sherman four years ago, and they believe they can do it again. The General expects California to help him. Michigan will compliment mm at nrst at least, and thus ttenerai Al ger expects to make a formidable showing on the first ballot at Minneapolis that will paralyze the President's supporters. That is tbe Alger plan of campaign. 7I00D FOE CONGRESS. Quay Carried Everything In Desampler's Old Neck of the Woods.
