COUNTESS CATHCART.
RE-HEARING POSSIBLE. (Received 9.30 a.m.) NEW YORK, February 23. The mystery surrounding the Countess ■Cathcart's sudden admission to the United States on 14 days' leave is believed to indicate that she will really be allowed to remain as long as she likes. Meanwhile, the habeas corpus proceedings, the hearing of which was to have been taken to-day, have been postponed for a week. Some- of the countess' friends believe that she will be granted a rehearing, and that the exclusion order will be rescinded. (A. and N.Z. Cable.) " WICKED lONSON." AMERICAN ALARM.
