VICTORIA MAY RETIRE
Rumor That the Venerable Queen
Contemplates Advocating
INFAVOR OF THEPRINCE OF WALES.

Weighed Down by Years and III Health,
the British Sovereign Desires to Spend
the Balance of Her Days Quietly at Bal
moral or Osborne Palace.
LONDON Aug. 1.-The rumor that Queen
Victoria intends to retire in favor of the
Prince of Wales is again current to-day.
1t is added that court circles are greatly
troubled regarding the condition Of the
queens health. Such reports frequently
have appeared of recent years, only to be
semi-officially contradicted later But it
now seems that there may be some actual
foundation for the statements made
1t Is added that her majesty has decided
to spend her time In future at Balmoral
or at Osborne, and that she will give the
Prince and Princess of Wales the use of
buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle
There Is no doubt that the queen feels
greatly the weight of her years and be-
reayements, and her majesty Is quoted as
having repeatedly remarked during her
last stay in this city, AT Buckingham pal
ace, upon tho occasion of the recent mar
riage of Princess Maud of Wales to Prince
Charles Of Denmark: "This is my last
visit to London"
Color is given to the rumors in circula-
ton by the deep emotion displayed by the
queen as she bowed in reply to the en-
thusiastic cheers of the multtutes which
lined the route from Buckingham palace
to the railroad station, where she took
the train for Windsor after the marriage
ceremonies

BRIDGEToN'S SORROW,


SoSihess ~ stdHtstlli In the StrlCKen
New Jersey City.
BEIDGEToN N. j., Aug. 1.-The bodies
OF the victims of the railroad horror who
lived here were brought from Atlantic
City last evening. Three thousand people
were at the West Jersey railroad depot
when the train came II was an intensely
painful scene. Women were sobbing and
strong men could scarcely bear the ordeal.
Nineteen bodies, nearly all those of former
prominent citizens of Bridgeton, were
brought to this city. They are Mr.. and Mrs.
II. Frazer Bell, Mr.. and Mrs. William G.
Lopez, Charles p. McGear, Joshua Ernest,
Frederick Cheyney, his son Joseph and

tor Pearl James NJ. Bateman, John
Griner, Charles d. Burroughs J. D. John

Joseph Peters and his son Morris
The bodies of Philip H. Goldsmith and
wife went direct to Philadelphia for
burial. The bodies of Mrs Ella May and
Michael May, of Palatine, and Frank Du-
bois, of Hustled were put off at those sta
tons, just above Bridgeton. The body of
little Harvey Hughes was brought here
today. A few of the injured came home
yesterday. The doctors say number Of
those still in the hospital cannot live. A
dispatch just received announces the

son. The body of Mrs. James N. Bate.
man, who persisted with her husband, has
not yet been found.
Not In the history of this city has
Bridgeton ever known such day. Bust
ness is practically at standstill. The
death roll Is constantly growing, and in
cludes all classes of citizens, and in nearly
every home there is mourning. No definite
have yet been made for the
funerals of the victims, but 1t is probable
a majority Of them will take place on
Sunday. The faces Of most of the VIC
tins are so badly mangled that they can.

The Cleveland Strike Renewed.

CLEVELAND, Aug. 1.-The strike at the
works of the Brown Hosting and Convey

effected by the state board of arbitration
does not include recognition of authority
of labor union committees nor the dis
charge of all non-union men, and on these
points they will continue the battle They
are in an angry mood, and trouble is al
most certain to come. f. w. Bucking-
ham, who shot over the heads of crowd
of strikers on Wednesday, was pursued
from the works by strikers yesterday,
and again used his revolver. No one was
