"The injuries received by the Queen Saturday
by slipping upon the stairs Of the palaF t
Winds It while descending to take her carriage
for ride, now turn out to be more serious
than at firsr supposed, and 1t is believed that
she will be confined to her room fer some time.
At the time of the accident Her Majesty and
attendants thought but II tie Of 1t. The Quren
after returning to her room and making exam
inalion in order to ascertain the extent OF her
injuries determined to carry out her intention
aud take a drive. On returning and when
attempting to leave the carriage she found she
was unable to do so and hsd to be assisted by
attendants who found il necessary to carry her
to her room. Her Msjesty's physicians were
at once summoned, and upon examination
found her k ee to be badly swollen and in
famed. Much uneasiness is felt throughout
the city concerning her condition. Crowds
stand about the bulletin places, eagerly
watching and asking for rews. Great num-
bers of business men posted up notices OF
absence at places of business and went to
clubs, newspaper buildings and telegraph
offices to await news. The newspapers all
sent special correspondents to Windsor Palace
and have made complete arrangements for
bulletins. The House of Parliament is
crowded. The streets In many places are
blocked with crowds of laboring people, who
have knocked off work in their anxiety to
keep informed. 1t Is not believed by those
having access TO authentic information that
the Queens injuries are absolutely dangerous
that, owing to the advanced age of Her
Majesty and the somewhat delicate condition
in which her health has been for some time,
some dangerous complica ions may arise from
them"
