the financial situation, the speech de-
scrlbed 1t as less favorable than it was

owing TO the increased expenditures.

trades law securing Sunday rest for
workingmen and regulating the work
OF women and children, would both be
applicable to the works in mines. He

DISTRESSING SCENES.
The Prince Suffered Severely-His
RetrOthed InconsoIabIe.

LONDON, Jan. 14.-It has been learned
from member OF the Prince of Wales
household that the most distressing
scenes had occurred at the bedside of
the dying prince yesterday and last
night. Since midnight on Tuesday
Prince Albert Victor was either delir-
lous or wholly unconscious save for a
few minutes now and then. During his
lucid intervals he was most tender and
affectiOnate to his parents and the
others who were at his bedside.
Between z and s o'clock last night the
condition of the sufferer grew so bad
that the usual bulletin was delayed, as
it was feared that the end would come
at any moment. Soon after he became
better, and toward midnight fell into
sleep which, while it was disturbed.
was more quiet than usual. At 2 O'Clock
this morning he again became worse.
and the members of the family who had
Withdrawn from the room were hastily
summoned. They all remained at the
bedside. till death occurred.
The condition of Princess May is pitia-

weeping bitterly. She cannot be made
utes together, and she appears TO be
daZed at the sudden taking off of her be-
trothed husband. She refuses altogether
TO touch food, and her terrible distress
and WOTdleSS sorrow are causing much
apprehension regarding her.
The Prince OF Wales would allow no
one to write the kilograms announcing
the death of his son to the queen. the
lord mayor and the various other sover-
eigns. He reserved to himself this sad
task. and all these messages he wrote
with his own hand.
The telegraph wires leading from
Sandringham were kept busy all the
morning in transmitting the messages
from the family of the prince. This
afternoon messages OF coincidence began
pouring in, and already such messages
have been received from the most of the
rulers of the world. Many messages
have also been received at Osborne
House. The government is also receiy-
ing official messages from the prime
ministers of many countries. The duke
and duchess of Teck and Princess Nav
remain at Sandringham. The Prince of
Wales wanted the burial to be at Sand
ringham. but the queen decided on
Windsor.
As far as the Prince and Princess of
Wales are concerned. all public engage
ments for the coming SIX months NAV
be considered cancelled. They will
make no public appearance during that
period. Prince George will go to the
continent. and it is not unlikely that
the queen will postpone her departure
on her projected continental journey
because of her grandson's death. There
is SO much to be done in the way of
preparation that the funeral can hardly
take place till the end of next week.
Public sentiment inciines to the plan
for lying in state of the princes BODY.

are said to oppose it. In any case the

WASHINGTON, Jan. IA strong del

today. and, Joined 10y Senator Villas and
Congressman Mitchell, began a vigorous
campaign for the beer city for the ma

have both been very active in the fight
hitherto, and the Milwaukee men to-
night claim they will lead on the first
ballot, which is not improbable, nor is it
diScouraging TO St. Paul. The Nilwau-
kee campaign is for the Northwest, and
the SANITY city will profit by it later on.
The Beer City men have flooded the
city with literature, claiming a hotel
capacity of $4,000, by the grace of Sos
boarding houses. But they make the
fatal mistake committed by Minneap-
oils, and already the newspaper men
are pouncing on them. Their prom
inent document contains the pledge of
the six leading hotels that they will as
sign no quarters until the national COM

land, but to the whole English-speak-
ing Catholic world. Cardinal Manning
was seer, and scanned with almost
prophetic eye the religious, social and
political horizon. Had he remained in
the established church he would most
probably have been elevated TO the
see of Canterbury. Had his lines been
cast IN other places, he would have been
chancellor of the exchequer as distin-
guiShed as Gladstone, as great phiIau-
throplst as WilberfOrce, an apostle of
temperance as successful as Father
Matthew; and had ne been sent a mis-
Slonary to foreign parts, he would have
displayed a zeal reminding US of St.
Francis Xavier. As minister of state
he would have been worthy rival Of
Cardinal XimineS.
Cardinal Manning was in sympathy
with all the wants and legitimate aspi-
rations of humanity. He felt that the
Catholic church was the great force to
realize these aspirations. He has left
the stamp of his character on his age.

CHICAGO. Jan. 14.-''By the death of
Cardinal Manning the Catholic church
loses one of It's most eminent prelates
and humanity is deprived of the serv-
ices of one of its warmest friends"
said Archbishop Ireland, who passed
through this city today en- route to
Europe. MY chief idea in making this
trip TO Europe was to meet Cardinal
Manning and enjoy few days visit at
his home. Now that he is dead l feel
that the principal pleasure of my trip
has been lost.
He was indeed truly great man,
who had few, if any, equals in the pres
ent age. His ability and character were
of such a high order that one can
scarcely appreciate their loftIness. His
whole life has been one inceSSant Strug-

sphere of usefulness was not circum-
scribed by the boundaries of the nation
which claimed him, nor by the member

was a recognized leader. 1t was limit
