the breaks in stocks of the industrial group
have been so sensational and so severe that not

the trouble is the hegira of gold from the coun-

chascs of stocks by foreigners represented
speculative rather than an investing demand,
and that the stocks which have been taken

carried beyond the next considerable rally. For
the Judgment of financieIs and capitalists abroad

Of the last few days.
The truth is that the immediate causes OF
disturbance in the stock market arc slight and
comparatively unimportant. but there are others
larger and more lasting which cannot be re
moved so long as the Democratic party con-
tinues in power and remains what it is. Doubt
about its action on the money question and on
the tariff will inevitably affect the judgment
of business men until Congress has met and
acted. Neither President Cleveland nor any
body else can say whether the action Of Con-
gross will be such as to lessen public distrust.
When apprehension comes in Wall Street the
weaker securities go down first, and so the in

Il ROY1L REIROTUAL.

The betrothal of the Duke Of York and
Princess May Of Tecli is the most popular 10
| nance of the day in England. While mar
rage with deceased wifc'S sister has been
disconntenanced by law, there are neither social
canons nor public prejudice against marriage
with deceased brothers sweetheart. The
Duke Of York in marrying the Princess who
was overwhelmed with grief when the Duke Of
Clarence died. may or may not make Il love
match, but he will do polite thing for him
SELF and for monarchical institutions in Eng
land. The Princess is as great a favorie with
the public as he is himself, and the royal be-
trOtha has been received everywhere in the
United Kingdom with favor and satisfaction.
Even il 1t be mere marriage Of convenience,
it is 4 good stroke of politics for the Crown
in 4 country which is becoming more demo-
cratic every decade and may some day be n
republic in form as it already is largely in fact.
The betrothal is popular because Princess
May. while having German blood in her veins,
has always lived in England and kept in touch
with the people there. By education and social
training she is an English Princess and she
has many Of those sturdy traits and simple
unaffected graces which made Princess Vic
tOria popular when she was living with her
mother at KensingtOn Palace sixty years ago
The royal marriages of the Queens reign have
been numerous, but they have seldom deeply
interested her subjects. The Mistress Of the
Robes the Captain of the Yeomen of the Guard,
Lord Gold Stick and all the other dignaries
of the Court have had their parts 10 play in
these State ceremonies and have considered the
events important; but the Queens worshipiul
subjects have not been enamoured Of the Ger
man princes and foreign plincesses who have
been imported to recruit the rapidly increasing
swarm Of royal grandchildren II Will please
those loyal subjects to know that the future
Duchess of York, who may herself be Queen
and the mother of King, is essentially an
Englishwoman, like the rcigning sovereign and
accustomed from childhood to the social en-
vronment of a stately Court.
What may be the future of royalty in a coun.
try where the masses are in such complete pos
