FINANCIAL AFFAIRS OF TIE PRINCE OF
WALES.


FINANCIAL AFFAIRS OF TIE PRINCE OF
WALLIS.
NEW YoRK, August ga London
letter says q report has suddenly gained
currency that the long expected crisis has
occurred In the financial affairs oil the
Prince Of Wales, and that the Ministry
have made up their minds to propose 10
the House Of Commons, at its next session,
to pay his debts. The sum named Is
100000, four times the sum voted In
1887 to appease the creditors OF that
pattern Of royalty who alterward became
George ".
About paying the bills thereare certain
10 be two powerful and contradictory
sentiments; One, that the honor Of the
nation Is concerned In providing for the
debts Of Its future King; the other, that
these debts are Of character which
ought TO be paid out Of the accumulated
fortune Of the Queen. The latter view
rests on the well known fact that the
Q1een has been receiving, ever since the
death Of Prince Albert the whole oil the
income calculated at her accession to sup
port the expenses Of the court In the usual
degree oisplendor; that her Majesty has,
however, lived during the period for the
most partiin retirement, and that the cost
Of drawingroom leyees, and other. royal
pageantries, has, In fact, fallen upon the
Prince and Princess Of Wales, whose in
como has been unequal to such burden,
The existing debts, or considerable part
OF them, have, according 10 this theory,
been incurred In the discharge oil these
duties. Hence 1t Is urged that the Queen,
who has had and kept the money given
her by the State for such purposes, ought
TO pay them. Tho Prince OF Wales has
forty thousand pounds year, plus the
revenue Of the Duchy Of Cornwall, which
now amounts TO over one hundred thous.
and pounds per annum.
