The Teutonic Teu-tonic was ctl Liverpool this afternoon after-noon liefore her lwscnger knew that the sandy-moustaihit young man know n as Mr. Jloyle, on board, was a real lord. A rumor liad spread on the ship when two days out that a live lord was on board, but Itoyle guatded hi secret well. "I lutvo no romantic story to tell," he said. "I have simply come home to take ofserslon of the family es-tatis es-tatis and assume my duties as a lUiti-h jieer. I first learneii of riy father's death In an old cujiy of the san Francisco eXrwifote, which I picked iiji lay chance at a liott 1 iu Sen'tle, where I hail gone to sell some hordes. I have been running a stock ram-It a hundred miles from lloiseCity and was seirpri-ed to ilud my brother advertising for ree. I wrote to him In Knglaud, but he lial gone to New York again, and the letter was forwarded 13 him there. He wired fi so as soon as 1 could arrange a Hairs I came to Xev York to meet him. I did not remain in Scar York seven hours." 'Hut w hy did you not w rite to your relatives or make your whire-nbouts whire-nbouts kuow n all these years?" "Well, there is really no guou reason. I was alwajs a Ji&or correspondent, cor-respondent, and iiiteinlvd to write every week, iril 1 alnajs jiut it oir." In brief, Lord Itoi Ie's story, as he gits it. Is this: He weut to America in ldsj to start a stock farm in Canada, Can-ada, aud was a member of the DOMIMON fAKUAMENT for Fort McIo.I. His brother, the same one vho is advertising for lilin, was there iu the samo tiusinewi at the snineume.

This is not true. I never was within a thousand miles ol Alaska. I knew nothing of the re-jortsjirvsumiiignie re-jortsjirvsumiiignie murdered auu never dreamed of my family advertising adver-tising for me." loud ik lk iu-:rK.vTr.i several times tliat he had no ulterior motive in concealing his whereabouts; where-abouts; that there was no qua'rel witli his family, or no alliance b. marriage or otherwise which made seclusion advisable. He simpl took a notion to keep quiet for a time and did so. Lord Boyle's brother li'teued to the conversation and confirmed thi-. "If he had any ec-nous reason for hiding," said the brother, "l liave not found It out yet and he has nut told me." "Why did you omit his title when yuu booked his name on sail lug?" "To avoid publicity," wa3 the an swir. l.ord iloylesaid that though he knew nothing about New York or down .East, ho liked the far West and intended going back there.
