What Queen Victoria says on the
Subject.
The Committee Reports that the Statements
of the "Pall Mall Gazette" are
Substantially True
A Criminal Law Amendment Act-Pub-
lie MeetingS-EminentS Speak.
ers-DOm't Ignore
the EVIL.

At meeting of the Salvation Army in
London General Booth read the letter from
the Queen to Mrs. Booth concerning the
proposed work of the army in the saving of
Young girls from vice. Her Majesty, re-
ferring to the proposed Criminal Amend
ment bill, raising the age of consent from
13 to Is years, says she feels deeply on the
subject, but acting under advice, must re-
frain from expressing an opinion on the
subject because it is matter before Par
lament.
Sir Richard Asheton Cross, Home Sec
rotary, has intimated that he approves of
raising the age of consent to Is years.
Meetings are being held all over the
country in favor of Criminal Amendment
Act. The provincial papers give fine re-
ports of the meetings, some of which are
very notable from the eminence of the
speakers and tie high character of the
audiences, but the London press completely
ignores them. Several eminent divines
have protested against this ignoring of the
evil, arguing that it furnishes encourage
mept to evil-doers.
The committee selected to inquire into
the statements of the Pail Mall Gazette re-
garding London vice has made the follow
ing report:
60 Having been requested to inquire as to
the truth of the statements printed in the
Pail Mall Gazette from July 9Th to July 10th,
we decided from the first to exclude inquiry
as to charges against particular men, class
es of men, or against the police. We
strictly confined ourselves to an inquiry
into the system of criminal vice described.
After carefully sitting the evidence of wit
nesses and material before us, without
guaranteeing the accuracy of every parti-
cular, we are satisfied that, on the whole,
the statements of the Poll Mall Gazette are
substantially true.'
The report is signed by the Archbishop of
Canterbury, the Bishop of London, Car
dinal Manning and Messrs. Morley and
Reid.

HONOLULU WEATHER.
Deaths From SpslstrOke Reported in
The East.

DIR. Diapers record of the Meteorological
Bureau, Central park, New York, presents
figures about the weather for the past cent
ury, and shows that yesterday was the hot
test July day for forty years. The mercury
registered SO degrees at 3 P. M, and at
some downtown stores it was 1O4 degrees,
the highest recorded temperature since
1912. Ending at noon yesterday $50 deaths
were registered at the Bureau of Vital
Statistics, of which ninety-two were chill
dren under five years old. This is the
seventh day of the intense heat with no
immediate prospect of ahat nent. The
heated area extends west t. h mississippi

in toward evening. There were thirty sun
strokes during the day, ten fatal.
The LauderdaIe Peerage Case.
The Lauderdale peerage case has been
decided by the House of Lords in favor of
Major Maitland. There were two claim
ants to the peerage, Major Maitland and
Sir James Maitland. Major Maitland con-
tended that he was the heir of the fourth
son of the sixth Earl of Lauderdale, who
married Mary Macadam in New York in
1772, two days before his death. Mary
Macadam had borne three sons to this
fourth son of the sixth Earl, and the petit
toner held that this marriage legitimatized
the offspring. Sir James Maitland, de-
scendant of the fifth son of the sixth Earl
of Lauderdale, contested the claim of
Major Maitland. In the hearing before the
House of Lords United States Minister
Phelps, Senator Edmunds, Mr.. Fowler,
Stephen Nash and Clarence Cary gave testi-
mony concerning the law of marriage as it
existed in 1772.
A Six Penny Policy.
The Tory Government continues to pose
as the friend of the masses. Richard Ash
eton Gross, Home Secretary, with a large
party of followers, made a tour of the slums
of Shadwell and Holborn, distributing six
pences and good advice with great prodi-
gality. An official account of the tour was
sent from the Home Office to the various
newspapers.

IMMORAL ARIsTocRATs.
Social OstracIsm of WelIE- known Noble
men in LOnOOn.

The agitation for protecting young girls
is leading to the social ostracism of several
well-known noblemen who are believed to
be involved in the Pail Mall GGzette's storles'
and whose names and acts have been pre-
scented to the Archbishop of Canterbury,
Cardinal Manning and the other members
of the committee now considering the proofs
submitted by the GGzeHe's secret commas
sion. Several prominent men in society,
whose names appeared upon the books OF
the notorious Mrs. Jeffries after the police
descent upon her luxurious establishment
several weeks ago, have disappeared from
London and are believed to have gone to
America The organ of ''The Social Purity
Movement states that four members OF
Parliament each offered large sum to-
wards the criminal prosecution of the edit
ors. The paper dares them to face the
testimony in open court, and boldly de-
clares that all four will have to disappear
permanently from public life in the event
of such prosecution.

Postmaster General Villas said he had
no intention of reconsidering his decision
against distributing the 100000 appropri-
ated by Congress for the transportation of
mails in American ships. In regard to the
threatened termination of the Australian
service by the Pacific Mail Steamship Com
pany at the expiration of the contract term,
in October next, he said that while he was
disposed to favor American steamship lines
where he could consistently, the depart
ment would have no difficulty in forward
ing the Australian mails on a schedule as
fast as that now in use, and, moreover, the
service would be more frequent and cheap
er. At present the Australian mails leave
San Francisco once a month, and letters
written just after the departure of the
steamers lie in the Postoffice nearly a
month. By the Suez service these letters
could be sent at short intervals and would
reach their destination in less time than at
present.

BEATRICE AND RATTENBERc.
An Account of the Royal Wedding
Inside and Outside the Church

The marriage of the Princess Beatrice,
youngest daughter of Queen Victoria, to
Prince Henry of Battenburg, took place
July 23rd at 1 o'clock at Mildred Church,
Whippingham, six miles from Osborne,
Isle of Wight. Over 100 guests of the
Queen breakfasted in the palace at Osborne
At II o'clock the guests started for the

landed from their yacht and were driven to
Osborne. The Prince wore the uniform of
a Field Marshal, and his son Victor was
dressed In the uniform of an army officer,
and his son George in that of an officer of
the navy. The Ninety-third Highlanders
guarded the approaches to the church, while
the road traversed by the procession was
lined by Volunteers.
Outside the Church.
The bridal procession started from the
palace at lis. Enthusiastic shouts and
cheers greeted the pageant as it emerged
from the gates and were continued along
the whole route. Five bands of music,
posted at different points on the route,
readiness the choir, followed by the clergy,
passed to the altar to prepare to receive the
bride. The Queen left the palace for the
church shortly before l o'clock. The pro-
cession made its entrance into the church
along a covered way through the church
yard. The equerries passed in first, then
followed the foreign guests and then the
royal family. When all had entered the
edifce, the organists played Handel's COO
casional Overtures.'' All the royal ladies
present wore dresses of white gossamer silk
The Prince and Princess of Wales did not
join in the procession. They both remain
ed at the entrance to the church.
Inside the Church.
] The scene as the Queen, dressed in black,
with lace, and wearing a miniature diamond
crown, entered the church was very i'm
pressive. The bride looked very pretty.
She was dressed in ivory satin, with Hon
iton lace. Her hair was artisticaIly ar
ranged, and its effect was made more charm
ing by the wreath of orange blossoms she
wore. The Princess of Wales wore cos
tune of white eau de nil. The Princess

The ZuIfikar Pass.
The Gear and his advisers are convinced
it would be much more risky business to
exasperate England now than it was last
March, both on account of the return of
the war party to power and of the friend
ship of Germany toward the present British
Government. Bismarck has suggested
that the difficulty be at least temporarily
settled by declaring the Zulfkar pass and
mountains to the east of the pass neutral
property, to be used freely by both Afghans
and Turcomans for peaceful purposes, but
to be closed against the passage of troops
in either direction. Military experts in
London ndicule this scheme as utterly i'm
practicable.

The Rawhide.
The crusade against immortality grows
daily, and the leaders in most cases are
women. A motherless girl named Davies,
aged Is, gave birth to child at Dudley, in
Worcestershire. The neighbors became
convinced that her own father was the
father of her child and a crowd of women
assembled to punish him. They invaded
the factory where he was employed, dragged
him from his work, tore off most of his
clothing and gave him terrible whipping
with rawhides. The victim howled for
mercy, but was told he had shown no mercy
to his victim and he should have none.
When the women were tired of whipping
him, they tied him to the tail board of a
cart with a placard on his bleeding back
setting forth the crime with which he was
charged. Finally Davies was turned over
to the police.
