ming between New York and New Haven
and the Fulton between New York and
New London. They were running in op-
position 10 the packet lines and there is
no doubt the pocket men did much to Sc
cure the passage of the prohibitory stat
ute. The two steamers thus driven out
OF Connecticut were forced to find new
ports and they came to Providence and
esta blished the line to New York. At
that time the fare between Providence
and New York was $40 and between New
port and New York 90. During the sea-
son the Connecticut and Fulton contin-
ued to make weekly trips. Two years
later the court OF errors OF New York de-
clared unconstitutional the act granting
exclusive rights to the Livingstone Il Full
ton Company to navigate the waters of
New York State. Ibis ended the steam

MARTIAL LAW.
Citizens of Leadville Want
1t Proclaimed.
City Council Requests Cover
nor to Act at Once.
Three OF the Men Killed Monday
Were From Cripple Creek.

LEADvILIE, Col, Sept. 23.-The City
Council held q special session yesterday,
at which citizens appeared and asked
that'all vagrant and suspicious characters
be driven from the city. The Council
postponed action until the regular ses-
sion last evening, when it was decided
not TO take such action, but instead to
ask the Governor TO declare martial law
at once, and the request was officially
made.
There are grave fears on all sides that
unless martial law IL at once declared
serious acts OF violence VIII occur.
President Auburn of the Miners Union
has disappeared. Secretary Bewar, whose
wife says he has not been home since last
Saturday, was in the city yesterday.
Three of the men killed In Monday
mornings riot, Meir Benson and Ma
honey, are said to have been identified as
Cripple Creek men and 1t is believed by
many that most of the lswlessness was
committed by outsiders...A disagreement
between an employing baker and the
bakers union yesterday came near re-
sultipg in the declaration OF a boycott
against the militia. After a stormy
nesting of the union tonight, however,
IL was decided to furnish the troops with
bread.

ALL RECORDS BROKEN.
Victoria Has Reigned Longer
Than Any English Ruler.
Now in Her 60th Year as Queen Of
England and Empress of India.

Today Queen Victoria "takes the rec.
ord" as having reigned over the British
empire longer than any other ruler OF
England.
Practically the record was broken long
ago, for, although George Ill, W hose long
reign OF SO years and eight months II
this day surpassed by his grandehild
technically reigned, ma ny years OF his lift
were clouded, by insanity and the power
| was in the hands of his son the princS
regent.
The Queen entered upon the Goth year
of her reign June 20 last, and 1t will bs
completed June 20, 1897. To that date,
at the express wish of the queen herself,
has becn postponed all official recogni'
tion OF the fact.
1t is not known that any special note
of the event. will be taken by the British
residents Of Boston, though the British
vessels In the harbor may be dressed In
flags in honor of the event.
Only three wearers Of the British crown
have come within ten years of the queens
record, and, II her life is spared to attain
the age of her grandfather, George III,
she will complete just 10 years az sover.
eign.
But IT Is far cry, at the Queens ad.
vanced age OF rs, to that OF 81, and may
never be reached.
Next to George III In point OF time oc-
cupied In the reign comes that OF Henry
H. But Henry III was only 81 when he
died, having been ruler OF the kingdom
nominally for SO years. Six wears of thst
time he was in the hands of a"protector''
and the crown was administered by a
regency.
Edward III was but boy of II when his
eventful 50-years' reign began, and his
half century must be reduced by four
years OF minority.
The only other monarch whose claim
to long reign compares with that of the
present Queen and Empress is Queen
Elizabeth, and both periods were excep-
tionally notab in achievement and COM
parable in pational advancement above
any other.
Both these Queens entered upon the
responsibilities OF their position after
having reached maturity, and reigned
without interruption, Queen Elizabeth s
rule extending over "a years.
But the length of Queen Victoria's
reign Is not only practically longer than
that OF any other ruler OF England; 1t
comes perilously near being a worlds
record. Louis XIV was five years old
when he as srended the throne OF France,
and he reigned ~ years. From that
period must be deducted the years OF his
majority, when his mother was the
Queen Regent. Queen Victoria has bot
TO live two years more TO nave reigned
longer than any sovereign known to
modern history.

Tax on Night Lunch Carts Doesn't Sui,
Men Who Pay II.


II is understood that there Is a move
ment on foot among the proprietors of
the night lunch wagons TO test the right
OF the city to charge them $50 year for
the privilege OF occupying a small space
on the street. One OF the oldest lunch
men in the city says he Is and has been
a taxpayer in the city of Providence for
many years, and while he submitted to
the tax at the time, he did not think it
was just right. He said, "Just look on
the corner of almost any of our streets
and you will see O man who is not nat
uralized occupying space, putting tax
payers and business men who have teams
to a great deal of Inconvenience to get
around one of these push carts. Often
times the whole of the stock In trade Is
not worth more than 90 cents, and some
times not that. Now, IL we have to pay
the city $50 year to stand in the street,
when there is no traffic, why not charge
these push-csrt men something? In a
week or SO will come the chestnut ven
ders, and these with their little stands
will be found at every turn. They, too,
can occupy space on the streets OF the
city without even asking permission. /,
for one, do not want 10 interfere with
any mans 'bread and butter but i do
think that we men who are citizens of
Providence an1 pay taxes should be en-
titled to the same privileges to do busi-
ness on the street at night as men who
cannot speak one word Of English are
given in the day time. We have not as
yet taken any definite steps in the mat
ter, but we will urdou btedly in short
time look into the matter and sec IL we
have not rights as well as the foreign
push-cart men,"

How First Steamboat Line
Was Established.
An Exclusive Franchise and
What Became of It.
Knocked Out by the Court Of Ap-
peals as Unconstitutional.

A reader of The NEWS asks the Cos
slper when the first line of steam boats
was established between Providence and
New York. AS was stated yesterday,
tine first steam boat TO round Point Judith
was the Fire Ely, but she was used only
between Providence and Newport, ana
that, too, only for short time, as the
composition OF the packet men was sue
cessful in driving ner away. 1t was more
than 10 years after steam navigation had
been shown to be q success before trav-
elers between New York and the New
England states began to reap the benefits
of the improved methods Of travel.
i. was in August, 1921, that the steamer
Fulton put into Newport harbor, and the
following morning she came TO Provi-
dcnce. The whsrves and hill tops over
looking the harDor were crowded with
an admiring throng. This was in reality
the beginning of the stoam boat era in
Providence. From that Insignificant lit
tie boat, the Fulton, there has been grad
ually evolved magnificent floating pal
aces that ply between this city and New
York. This first trip OF the Fulton was
merely an excursion and was not follow
cd up Immediately by the establishment
OF a line to New York. That did not
take place until the 9th Of June, 1922.
On that day the steamer Connecticut ar
rived from New York and in connection
with the Fulton, esta ablished the first line
between this city and the big city on
Manhattan Island. The circumstances
which led to the establishment are very
interesting. The legislature OF New York
had granted to the Livingston q Fulton
Steam Navigation Com pany special privi-
leges. No steam vessel could navigate New
York Day, the North River, Long Island
Sound or any lake or river in the state
without license from the Steam Nsviga-
tion Company. In retaliation the Legis-
lature OF Connecticut enacted law for
bidding any vessel sailing under such a
license 10 enter the waters of that state.
AT that time the Connecticut was run
