From the Effects OF Her Fall Down
Stairs on Saturday.
THE FEELING IN THIS COUNTRY.
4 Sketch Of the Notable Events of Her
Long and Useful Reign.

New YORK, March 21.-A London
special says the injuries received by the
queen Saturday by slipping on the stairs
of the palace at Windsor, while descending
to take her carriage ride, now turn out to
be more serious than at first supposed,
and it is believed she WILL be confined to
her room some time. At the time of the
accident her majesty thought but little of
t. The queen, after returning to her
room, had the matter examined and the
full extent Of her injuries determined, and
resolved to carry out her intention and
take a drive, and after returning at
tempted to leave her carriage, but found
she was unable to do so, and. had to be
assisted by attendants. who found it
necessary to carry her to her room.
Her majesty's physicians were at once
summoned, and upon examination found
her knees to be badly swollen and inf1amed.
There is much uneasiness through the city.
Crowds stand about the bulletin places
eagerly watching and asking for news.
Great numbers of business men post up
notices of absence at their place of bust
ness, and have gone to the clubs, newspa-
per buildings and telegraph offices to await
the news.
The newspapers have all sent special
correspondents to Windsor, and made COM
Plete arrangements for bulletins. The
house Of parliament is crowded The streets
in many places are blocked with crowds of
Iaboring people, who have left of work in
their anxiety to keep informed.
II is uot believed by those having access
to authentic information that the queens
injuries are absolutely dangerous in them
selves, but there Is universal fear that
owing to the advanced age and somewhat
delicate condition in which her health has
been for some time. some dangerous COM
plications may arise from them.
LONDON. March 21.-A bulletin just
posted announces that the queen is con-
stantly attended by physicians. The
crowd surrounding the bulletin was so
-reat that those in the rear could not read
It, and demand for a reader was made.
A man mounted pile of stones and cried
out the intelligence. When the man mo-
toned to make his first utterance, the en-
tire crowd, which was almost exclusively
composed of workingmen,
UNCOVERED AND WAS STILL.
The bulletin produced the most evident
depression. The bulletin announced that
the knee upon which her majesty fell has
become greatly swollen, and that every
effort is being made to confne the swell
ing.
( p. MT is announced that her maies-
ty's physicians have authorized the state
ment to be made that her majesty is in no
immediate danger. 1t is understood the
queen is suffering quite as much from ex-
haustion caused by her determined action
in taking a long ride after she received her
injury for the purpose of disabusing the
public mind of all impression that she was
wound itself. This fortitude is the theme
of universal comment, and working
people seem to glory in talking about
what they call the ''bravery of the queen"
4:3O p. m.-Bulletins report the queen
resting comfortably, and her physicians
claim to have entirely succeeded in con-
quering all those elements of the case
which might have proved troublesome.
NOT AS BAD AS REPORTED.

confined to Windsor castle by a swelling on
the knee, caused by her fall on Saturday,
