Queen Victoria About 20 Abdicato.

WASHINGTON, June "a represent
tive OF one OF the European powers says
that very serious event Is impending In
England, which Is the abdication OF the
Queen. The reasons given are her Majes-
ty's falling health and increasing unwil-
llngness, and sometimes inability to per-
form duties incident to government. For
some years the Queen has been a mild
believer In spiritualism. She thought the
spirit Of her dead husband used to assist
her in working out questions which per-
picked and sometimes annoyed her.
Since the death OF her favorite servant,
John Brown, she has been very much de-
pressed, and finally 1t was necessary TO re-
move her 10 BalmOral, where some OF her
happiest days were spent with the lover
and husband Of her youth. She seemed to

yond words. 1t was telegraphed from
London by the ambassador OF a great power
TO his sovereign, on Wednesday last, that
the abdication Of the Queen was pending,
and would probably occur very soon. The
Queen has chung TO the visible endowments
OF the throne with such tenacity that she
must have greatly changed before the
thought was bearabe. But the break
down Of her health has been followed by
deep melancholy. IL seems not to be
generally known that the trouble with the
Queen comes from large ulcer. Of
scroffulous and cancerous nature, that has

spite OF all that can be done, is eating It's

TRANSPORTING DRY GOODS.
New York Railroad Commission Discuss
ing a Subject Of Great inheritance.

NEw YORK, June 12.-Tbe State Rail.
road Commission continued their session
to-day Chas. S. Smith presented on be-
half the dry goods trade, their views In re-
gard TO the proper classification OF the do
nestle and cotton and other low grades OF
fabrics on Western tariff They showed
that several changes In the classification
OF these goods were recommended, princi.
pally IN the case OF dOmostics, piece goods
OF cotton. Schedules were annexed to the
reports, showing that the consumption OF
cotton in the United States increased from
I3l, 12l bales In 1866 to / ,OG5 49, bales in the
last fiscal year, while the export OF manu-.
iaclllred goocs had increased from l,lS0,-
IH yards to l44.520, 075 yards
during the same time. The
present classification OF dry
goods has bee in existence since 1861. and
~ claimed 'sai the lowering OF the classi-
hcation was demanded by the increase OF
business The only railroad represented
was the New York Central and Hudson
River Mi, Dcpcw and vice president
Hayden being present. They opposed the
reduction demanded on the ground that
cotton goods were not competitive. and are
SIMPLY used Tor the purpose OF attracting
trade 10 the warehouses Of western middle
men. There is no profit on them now, and
any reduction would simply allow western
dealers to sell At lower prices, No one
but weS'ern consumers would he
benefited by the reduction, nor
could they he to any appreciablc extent.
Mr., Woodhouse, OF the dry goods COM
mittcc. argced that cheap cotton fabrics
should be placed on the same basis as grain.
Mr.. Green, OF Columbus, Ohio, said the
shipments to his firm CT cheaper fabrics
showed proportion TO whole shipments a
percentage Of O.. 90 IN tonnage and All in
value. The next high grade Of dry goods,
including woOIcns. manufactured goods,
etc. gave in tonnage percentage OF 10 "a,
and in value Of 21.0l,
Third class, such a. notions. small wares,
etc. gave a percentage Of tonnage OF II,
and OF value OF 2I.1I; and floor
and table oilcloths percentage of TONNAGE
OF 3. 10. and OF value | .05. lie called atten-
ton To the fact that nearly all the articles
oil the proposed schedule submitted by the
committee had been reduced from first
class TO fourth, or lowest. This would in
yJlye q reduction from u cents TO - cents
per hundred pounds on through freight
rates to Chicago. No reduction was re-
commended in the higher priced goods, it
being usual TO ship those in eases Other
low-priced goods packed in cases and ship
ped in bulk, were lowered IN
classification. He thought the growth
OF the Eastern dry goods trade
in the West showed that freight rates had
not been unfayorable, though he thought u
further reduction possible without injury
10 the railroads. 1t was decided that rail-
road men should submit to the commission.
A new schedule Of rates Is in accordance
with their ideas. This should be submit
ted to Commissioner Fink to he lai d before

WASHINGTON, June 12,-Judge Wylie

for their patient attention during the weary

understand his duty: he might be
guided by an intention to do the public
