"The, beginning of the end of rail ropd overcapitalization" is the way the New York press refers to the com- t in the Minnesota suit for an ion to prevent the Great North- r from uttering another $60,000,000 of illegal sf , which complaint recites a short and simple story of wrong commi on the people by one' ofuthe thrie 'companies the Northern Securities group. Practically the whole of this tale of plunder will be understood when it is said that the Great Northern has al- ready issued ;8150,000,000 of stock, al- though the original charter of the company limited the capital to $30. 000,000. It is now proposed to run up this stupendous excess 'to $210 - 0,000. Attorney General Young's suit is to stop this culmination of overcapitalization. The Great North- ern case marks an important point in the history of the American people's war against the crime of watered stock. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. * Liquor Act Provisions. Kingston, Jan. 5~(To the Editor) : The liquor fioense act provides' that evry city tavern shall contain six bedrooms, besides those used by, the family, proper stabling for six horses, and Il be a well appointed and sufficient eating:house, with the ap- pliances for serving meals to travel: fers. In short, the law requires and intends that the license-holder shall "keep hotel." It is notorious that this law has been violated in Kings ton for lvears. Licenses have been constantly granted to houses which do not "keep hotel." If we get a large vote for reduction of licenses on Mon- day, we may hope that those plas will disappear. ~~}. M.

CLAIMS, AN EARLDOM ROMANCE OF PEERAGE TO | BE DISCLOSED. -- { Mayor of Royal Blood--If Claim | is Allowed He Will Rank as | Dy dant of Scottish King. London, Jan, 5--One of the most | romantic claims ever heard by | the privilege committee of the House | of Lords is about 'to comé before that august and deliberate body--the claim | of Aldérman Barclay-Allardice, mayor | of Lostwithiel, to the earldom of | Airth, * : ! Lone case is entered on the House of | 5° notices, and will probably be | begun by the Sommittce of privileges | after the reassembling of parliament. | The ( 'story that will be told is one that goes back to King Robert 11 of Scotland, the common ancestor of the English Stuart kings, of King Edward VIJ and of the mayor of Lostwithiel, | according to | the Jedigree which Mr. Barclay-Allardice will put forward. | For Mr. Barelay-Allardice claims | that he is descended in a straight line from the eldest legitimate son of Robert II of Scotland, while, as is not disputed, the Stuart kings, and, therefore, Ki ward, are deseended from Robert HI, who was born years before hig mother became the wife of Robert IT. Robert III, the ancestor of Charles I and of King ®dward, was not, calogically, the true heir to his ather's crown, being born out of wed- | lock. The first child of Robert 11 born | in Wedlock was his eldest son by his! second wife, David, Earl of Strath- earn, and it is from this son that Mr. Barclay-Allardice traces his descent. It is said that "hereditgry rights never die," but whatever tights the dants of the first Earl of Strath-| earn ever had to the throne of Scot- | land hundreds of years ago, were in| fact barred by an act of the Scottish | parliament, which settled the succes- | sion on the earlier children of Robert | II. And whatever rights the heirs of | the pretender had in later times were | as effectually barred by the act of th English Parliament, which placed the | Guorges on the throne. { But while the acceptance of Mr. Bar- | clay-Allardice's pedigree by the House | of Lords would give vise to no new | pretendership, it would, perhaps, be a | source of woe to the "legitimist" or] "white rose" enthusiasts, who still, in| an academic way, champion the rights ge of the descendants of the pretender to | the English erown. the claim of the preténder's descend- ants to the throne om strict heredity account--and if the mayor of Lost- withiel proves that he is the true "heir in line" of the Beottish king the crown, he would take genealogical oodence of the present legitimist eiress, Princess Louis of pavaria, who is regarded by the legitimists as | being by hereditary 'right "Queen | JV." L. Stuart, 'of Doughty street, W.C., who is deeply versod in genealogical matters and has closely studied Mr. Barclay-Allardice's claim, put the matter clearly from the genealogist's point of view to a reporter: vesterday. "Robert 11 got over the illegitimacy of his son, whom he designed for his successor, by an act of parliament, { but fifty acts of parliament could | never in reglity remove the taint in | the blood of Robert 1. The, here | ditary right, therefore, remains in the | the issue of the Igtter's legitimate | half-brother, David, Earl of Stragth- | earn, whose representative the Cornish mavor claims to be." ir. Barclay-Allardice's claim to the | dormant earldom of Airth becomes i still more interesting in view of the fact that it is to be contested by an- | other descendant of Robert 1E-George | Marshall Graham, of Leitchtown, who | is asking the House of Lords to re | cocnize his right not only to the Airth | carldom, but to the older earldom of | Menteith, and the still older ear!dom | of Strathearn, all now dormant. There is, Mr. Stuart said practical | ly no doubt about the descent of | both claimants, and «in the highly | probable event of both lines of de | scent being proved to the satisfaction of the committee of privileges, the only remaining gpestion is which has the stronger claim to the dormant | titles. } Since the death of 'the second Earl | of Airth, in 1694, the earldom has been dormant, for it is a curious fact that none of "his sisters' desoondants | claimed the title until 183, when | Robert Barelayv-Allardico, the present | claimant's grandfather, took his case before the Hopee of Lords. | In IS70 ~ Mr. i mother made another attempt to se- | cure a decision, but she was notin a | nosition to press her claim to a con- | clusion, and it fell through without any decision being arrived at by the | committee of privileges. Mr. Barclay- | Allardice hopes at the third attempt | to establish his claim bevond doubt. | A remarkable coincidence in the case | is that both Mr, Barelay-Allardice | and Mr. Graham hail from the other side of the Atlgntic, and that the eventual heirs of" both of them their nephews, and nephews State. . _Barday-Allardice, Lostwithiel, was bom at Hamilton, | Ont, and came to Cormwall after i | re that both these i were born in the United | mayor of | Wall strect, New York. A i Mr. Graham was born in Edinburgh, & but went to Cangda at an carly age, | and still owns property in the domin. | ion. Mr. Graham's mother was a | 1850, has 'given him' wn Kfe of con. Riece of the last Duke of Gorden, ang | OR through his mother he is a second cousin of the present Duke of Rich- | mond.
