THE QUEENS SPEECH.


Brief, and Silent as to Foreign Legis.
lation-Another Representative In
the Monetary Conference.
LONDON, Aug. THE queens speech
as communicated to the ministry Is the
briefest speech from the throne ever read
in parliament. 1t formally intimates that
parliament has not met for business. 1t
contains no reference to prospective
legislation, and is almost silent in regard
to the foreign affairs. The queen simply
says that no immediate work can be ex-
pected from the members so soon after the
labors of the last session and the fatigues
OF the general election.
The Associated Press has authority to
state that the liberal government is likely
to add one delegate, prominent mono
metalist, to represent Great Britain at the
monetary conference. The appointments
announced are considered unsatisfactory.
Sir w. II. Holdsworth is an ardent bimetsl-
list, and Mr.. Currie, who is a member OF
| the council of India, also has leaning to
bimetallism. Sir O. w. Fremantly was
nominated solely on account of his official
position in the mint, and will take no ac.
| tive part in the conference.

MORSE TALKING FREELY.


Mr.. Morse is talking more freely than
any person connected with the family with
tbs possible exception of Hiram Harring
ton, who married a sister of Mr.. Borden.
Mr.. Harrington is embittered intensely
against the family and he does not hesitate
to say the most unfounded things. The
most surprising event of the day was the
visit of Messrs. Davis and Howe of South
Dartmouth, who drove to this city to visit
Mr.. Morse. They said Mr.. Morse was not
connected with an extensive horse trading
business that would connect him with Mr..
Borden in financial affairs. 1t was true
that he brought some young colts of his
own raising and sold them as western
horses, but he was not in any way affli-
ated with the gangs of traders who were
selling Montana horses in the south
ern section of the state. These statements
knocked the bottom out of the Westport
theory.
City Marshall Hillard is receiving many
letters Offering assistance and clues, some
coming from persons in high social posi-
tons.
According to the statements of the au-
| thorities DR.. Bowen does not speak with
| that freedom which might be expected OF
a man in his professional position. The
| autopsy made directly after the discovery
was not sufficiently exhaustive to relieve
the examining physicians of many doubts
that have arisen since Friday afternoon.
| The stomachs and parts of the livers of the
| victims were sent to Boston for analysis,
but there may be SONS things called up az
time goes on which may demand another
close investigation. Accordingly the bodies
will be kept in the tomb awaiting the or
| ders of Medical Examiner Dolan.
| There is much fault finding in town a,
the progress of the case. Most people
think the family should have been com
PEELED to talk long before this time, also
that thorough search should have beer
instituted at once.

Americans one meets in England say that
they have been sent there for six months
or year by the order of their physician
never understood it before, but during
the few days have been in the country it
has been made quite plain. The people 90
about at such high pressure that there is
no wonder they break down. Such rush
ing and tearing about as can be seen in
New York in the most uncomfortable
weather is remarkable. Every man seems
to be driven Mt his highest speed. In the
west understand the ways of the business
men are even more rapid. Do your people
realize that they cannot last long at that
rate, or do they prefer short lives Mt top
speed? This is the most beautiful country,
but the people do not seem to take time to
appreciate it. Washington Post.
