LONDON, Jan. 15.-The delegates to the
Miners federation now holding their an
nual meeting on Stoke-on-Trent were ap-
prised before assembling that their repre-
sentatives in parliament, desired that the
federation should adopt a resolution of
coincidence with the royal family on &C.
count of the death of the Duke of Clarence.
A telegram frem their parliamentary lead
er, Mr.. Pickard, himself i'll with influenza,
asked for vote of sympathy with the
royal family, adding: "The queen has al
ways expressed sympathy with u.s." Cries
of "Business!" greeted the message. The
member who moved the vote of coincidence
reminded the delegates that the queen in
cases of accidents in mines always helped
the distressed. In sullen silence the con-
ference listened and by vote of 10 to 3
passed without debate an amendment to
proceed to business. The Miners feder-
alton has 100000 members and it is
the most powerful single union in the
country. 1t has several representatives
in the house of commons and con-
trolls the votes of others. No workmen's
combination has SO freely given aid to the
distressed. Interference with the family
affairs of the royal family was felt by the
delegates to be beyond them, and they
honestly said so. If all the trades unions
of Great Britain were similarly tested the
result would be similar. The delegates
Immediately proceeded to vote sympathy
and substantial help for the starving nail
makers of the midland districts, who have
long been on a strike.
The upper and middle classes are most
keenly touched by the incidents of the
duke of Clarence's death. Thousands clad
in mourning have focked to Marlborough
House to record their names, and through
out the capital well dressed folks general
ly are doning some badge of grief.
The Princess of Wales after the funer al
is going to some secluded spot in the
south of Europe with her daughters.
Both are in delicate health and their con-
anxiety to the family. The death of the
Duke of Clarence has recalled the fact that
he was born prematurely. The latest
from Sandringham is that DR.. Laking is
watching the Princess of Wales and Prin-
cess May, fearing that influenza may attack
them. Prince George, who is still weak
from his attack of typhoid fever, is also
the cause of anxiety.
A fierce war will be waged with the
vatican on the appointment of a successor
to Cardinal Manning. English Catholics
desire the appointment of Bishop Vaughan,
who is unionist, but the Irish party pre-
fer the bishop of Portsmouth.
Minister Lincoln has nearly recovered
from his cold.
LISBON, Jan. 15.-The Marquis Foz,
formerly director of the royal railway in
Portugal, who was arrested for fraud in
connection with the employees pension
fund, has been released on $3.50, 900 bail.
LONDON, Jan. ia dispatch from
Rome says the coincidence of the deaths of
Cardinals Simeoni and Manning so affected
the pope that he exclaimed: 81 feel that
my hour is also approaching"
PARIS, Jan. 15.-The Duo Alvares, form
erly Spanish ambassador, had both legs
cut of in carriage accident to-day.
LONDON, Jan. 15.-Mrs. Siddals, who
jumped from a moving train at Tamworth
and was terribly hurt, has recovered con-
seriousness. She charges that Goodsll, the
preacher who was with her in the car, at
tempted to outrage her. When she re-
sisted he pushed her out on the footboard.
