It Is as follows: “The differences between the Duke and the Duchess of Marlborough have been settled privately. The children will go to Sunderland House to join thelr wother, and the duchess and the children will proceed to the continent eurly pext wee This statement is somewhat adi uous owing to the possible interpreta tion that the duke and duchess Lave settled thelr differences and resumed the relations of husband and wife, but the family expressly desires to let it stand as It Is without giving It further preciseness, In other well Informed quarters this statement Is Interpreted us weaning that the doke and duchess have ar ranged privately a settlement of terns under which #ach will have the care of the children for a portion of the year and other detalls. In other words, the children will now pass six months of the year with each parent. It Is un- derstood that the duchess will con- tinue to make Sunderland House her London home, while the duke will have town headquarters at a West Eud botel, as be has done sluce October last. King Edward has been made ac- quainted with the full terms of the settlement through the duke himself, who had an audience with his ma jes. ty at Buckinghamn palace yesterday, There Is great relief lo royal and so c¢lal circles that the affairs of the Marlboroughs will pot get into the courts The duchess has not been very well lately, and as she thinks well of the cure at Mont Dor, France, ste wil after a short sojourn lu Paris proceed to the Riviera with ber sons.

Mr. Root denles that be has received any such communication, and careful Inquiry fails to show that the alleged remark of Baron Hayashi has ever been com municated officially to this government Io an address delivered last night before the National Geographic society Senator Perkins of California dwelt at length upon the probabliity of a con filct between the Americans and the Japanese, ‘two irreconcilable races” as he pronounced them.

The small cloud of war which is now hauging on the borizon of the two nations appears to relate to the dissatisfaction of Japan with the do mestic policy of the state of California relating to Its educational futerests.” Vietor Merhert Wants Protection.
