VICTORIA
There were many expressions of sat
isfaction that the carriage of the
United States special envoy, Mr.. Reid,
had been 50 warmly received. 1t was
considered largely due to President
McKinley's cordial letter in congratu-
lating her majesty upon the sixtieth
anniversary of her accession to the
throne.
Every intention to honor the United
States special envoy has been dis
PLAYED. For this reason Mr.. Reid took
Princess Victoria of Wales in to din
ner Monday evening. sitting at the
table opposite the duke of Saxe-Coburg
and Gotha-
In addition Queen Victoria received
Mrs Reid most cordially, and at the
reception in the ball room she gave
the wife of the United States special
envoy her hand to kiss. The Canadian
premier. Mr.. Wilfred Laurier, met with
an especially warm reception at the
colonial stands opposite the Horse
Guards. lie afterwards said TO a re
porter for the press: Il was greatly
impressed by the splendor of the days

ovations from the crowds"

LoSD0S, June aS.-All the perplex-

Yesterdays festivities worked To per-
lection. The weather was also per-
feet Ii was cloudy in the morning,
but there was sunshine from the time
the queen emerged from the palace
gates. The sky was cloudless and the
weather was just warm enough TO be
pleasant There were no empty seats
along the route followed by the pro-
cession, but the spectators sold the
ten-guinea seats for one guinea and in
many cases the spectators gave their
seats away. Evidently the crowd was
not 50 large as expected. Many
people were frightened away 10y the
stories told OF possible accidents, the
danger of fire, etc, and by the start
ling stories of prices which would be
charged to enable people to reach
their seats. But as matter OF fact
there was no serious difficulty in
reaching the spots selected from which
to view the procession. although the
majority of the seatholders had to
leave their homes before seven o'clock
in the morning.
Whitelaw Reid. the United States
special envoy, when questioned on the
subject of the jubilee, said:
Etiquette forbids me from discuss
ing the jubilee ceremonial, but you
may say it was extraordinarily success
full in every way"
At the lord chamberlain's Office yes
terday afternoon representative of
the press was informed that on her re-
turn to the palace after the procession,
the queen and all the royal family ex-
pressed the greatest delight and salts
faction at the fact that everything had
passed SO SUCCESSFULLY.

Visible Improvement.


Minneapolis Journal:-The reitera-
tion of the statement that there has
been no visible improvement in bust
ness since the inauguration OF Presi-
dent Mckinley, has led to the pre-
paration,by Il republican senator,for
use in the approaching tariff debate,
OF some facts, as gathered by the two
leading financial publications OF the
country, Dun's and Bradstreet,s, re-
lating TO the general business inn
provement and the starting OF new
works, or the resumption OF work in
establishments which had been closed
down during the business depression.
While it is not assumed that these
cover the entire business or industri-
al field, they are something OF an in
dex to the business situation, and
prove an extremely interesting and
complete refutation of the assertion
that there has been no improvement
in business in the II weeks since
President Mckinley 'sinauguratlon.
