to-day, and II Is added that court circles
are greatly troubled. regarding the con-
dition Of the Queens health. Such re-
ports have frequently appeared OF receat
years. only to be semi-ofiicially contra
dicted later. But IT now seems that
there may be some actual foundation Tor
the statements made.
1t Is added that her Majesty has de-
cided to spend her time In future at Bal
moral or at Osborne. and that she VIII
give the Prince and Princess OF Wales
the use OF Buckingham Palace and Wind
sor Castle. There Is no doubt that the
Queen seems to feel greatly the weight
Of her years and bereavements. and her
Majesty ss quoted as having repeatedly re-
marked during her lest stay In this city,
az Buckingham Palace. upon the occa-
sion of the recent marriage OF Princess
Maud, OF Wales, to Prince Charles, or
Denmark: This is my last visit~to Lon
don"
Color IS given to the rumors In circu-
Iation by the deep emotion displayed by
the Queen as she bowed in reply TO the
enthusiastic cheers of the multtudes
which lined the route from Buckingham
Palace to the railway station, where she
took the train for Windsor after the mar
riage ceremonies.

fight but II was finally adopted. 1t pro-
vides that the government issue money

substitute was offered for the ad-
dress submitted last night, providing that

written pledges that Sewall be removed
from the ticket and Watson placed in
his stead, or the Populists would not
support Bryan. The fight on this was
hitter and acrimonious, and occupied the
morning session. The convention ad-
iourned until l o'clock. The middle-of-
the-road men were apparently In the
majority, and will probably carry tneir
point.

Master John Bodlne, Of the West Jersey

learned that Engineer Farr, OF the Read

dicating its approach.
Farr had ample time TO stop his train
but made no effort TO Go so II is also
rumorcd that there was some one In the
cab talking TO Farr at the time OF the
accident, but this cannot be confirmed.
