QUEEN VICTORIA MAY RESIGN.
Rurnor Says She Will Give Up Her
Throne to the Prince of Wales.

London, July 31.-The rumor that
Queen Victoria intends to retire in fa-
yor of the Prince of Wales Is again
current to-day and it is added that
court circles are greatly troubled re-
gardin the condition of the Queen s
health. Such reports have frequently
appeared of recent years, only TO be
semi-otficially 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
seems to feel greatly the weight Of her
years and bereavements and her ma
jesty is quoted as having repeatedly re-
marked during her last stay in this
city, at buckingham palace, upon the
occasion of the recent marriage Of
Princess Maud of Wales to Prince
Charles of Denmark: This is my last
visit TO London
Color is given to the rumors in cir
culation by the deep emotion displayed
by the Queen as she bowed in reply
to the enthusiastic cheers of the multi
tudes which lined the route from Buck
ingham palace to the railroad station,
where she took the train for Windsor
after the marriage ceremony.

Majority.

New York. July 31.-Tammany Hall

The executive committee this after
noon passed by reclamation a resolu-
ton to that effect, after defeating a
motion to postpone action by vote

dOrsing the Chicago candidates. In

SILVER MUST BE THE ISSUE.
MIR. SewaIl Says the People Are Not
Thinking About Tariff.

Bath, Me, July 31.-Mr. Arthur
Sewall expressed himself upon the is
sue of the campaign in an interview
to-day, in which he said:
"The only issue of the campaign is
free silver. The Republicans have
been trying to force the tariff to the
front, but they cannot do it. 1t is
such a secondary issue that the people
are not thinking about it. The trouble
is not there. The people want pros
perity, which is having every man at
work and all the wheels moving. They
have tried high tariff and low tariff,
and matters have been continually
growing worse. The Democrats de-
cided that the trouble lies in the finan-
cial system and the remedy is the
reconciliation of silver.
THE people have decided the same
way and what they want they will
have, also what the people want is
right; it cannot be otherwise"

or county committees and that he will

ter whatever. They now regard Mr..
Harrity as entirely "out Of politics."
although the prediction is made by
some of them that they will not be
surprised to see him appear again in
National and State politics after a
few years retirement
Mr.. Harrity's career in politics has
been most successful. He was unani-
mously elected chairman of the Dem
Ocratic National committee, and as
Democrat National chairman he
conducted the National campaign of
1892, which resulted in the election of
Grover Cleveland. 1t is generally un-
derstood that because of his efficient
services Mr.. Harrity would have been
appointed a member Of President
Cleveland's cabinet had he not indicat-
ed his inability and disinclination to
accept the position. At the recent Chi
cago convention Mr.. Harrity received
twenty-One votes for the Vice-Presi-
dency. Had he been willing to come
out for free silver, his continuance as
National chairman would have been
assured, although he positively declin-
ed further service.
