THE QUEENS WEALTH.

We have often heard that the Queen
of England is an exceedingly rich wo-
man, but few people are really aware
of the enormous wealth essc possesses.
It's full amount will never be known,
for the Wills of royal personages are
not disclosed. As mere items of her
present income, however, may be men
toned the yearly sum Of 100000
which Parliament allotted to her Spouse
Prince Albert, and which has been paid
her ever since his death as the widow
of that pensioned parsonage. Her
mother, the late Duchess CT Kent, left
her $4,000 a year. Thus nearly two
hundred Thousand annual dollars go to
swell her private purse, wholly outside
Of her royal revenues. which nobody
mentions in any exact terms and of
whose real amount nobody save GER
tain reticent officials are perhaps
aware. Individuals. it is we'll known,
have on several occasions beQueathed
the Queen large fortunes. Her prop
erty in Jewels alone is something pro-
digious. Her geld plate, stored at
Windsor Castle and brought to London
for use at court festivities at Bucking-
ham place. is of vast value. 1t chiefly
consists Of dishes, fiagons, stands and
shields, ard has been accumulated,

The Window Glass Combine Completed
in Pittsburg Yesterday--The Capt.
tai $170O0,000

PITTSBURG, Pa, September 10
After the close of the window glass
conference tonight James A. Chambers,
President of the American Glass Com
pany Sales Agency, announced that the
company had been completed. The new
company will take in fifty Of the largest
concerns in the country. their aggre-
gate capacity being about 1000 pots.
This is said to leave only about 600
pots outside Of the combine.
Options were all closed to-day and
other papers necessary to the transfer
Of the properties have been deposited
with the Union Trust Company of this
city. Within two weeks cash payments
on the concerns going into the COM
bine will be made and final papers ex-
ecuted, after which officers will be
elected. The new company, which will
bear the old name American Glass
Company" will be permanently organ
lied on or about October LIST. 1t will be
capitalized at $17,0O0,000, S4,000,000 of
which will be 7 per cent. cumulative
preferred and $13,OOO,00O common stock.
No bonds will be issued.
The resumption of independent Win
dow glass factories which was sched-
uled for to-day. was not as complete
as expected, judging by reports re-
ceived at headquarters up to midnight.
The location and capacity of the plants
starting to-day are not given, but the
officials say that sixteen plants with
a capacity of about 200 pots made
the start under the advanced scale OF
wages.

WASHINGTON, September 15.-Gen.
Otis has cabled the War Department a
request for additional staff officers for
service in the Philippines. He asks for
one additional judge advocate general,
two assistant adjutant generals, two
inspector generals, eight quartermas-
tiers, nine commissaries of subsistence
and two engineer officers. The adju-
tant general has called upon the heads
of these different bureaus to designate
officers for this duty, as the Importance
of having all the officers of the staff
asked for before the next active cam
paign begins is recognized by the de-
partment
1t is said at the War Department that
the return of the two members Of the
Philippine commission remaining in
Manila, Messrs. DENLY and Worcester,
is in order to advise the President re-
specting the very latest aspect of affairs
SO that he may use the information IN
his message to Congress. There is an
intimation conveyed that the adyices
brought by President Schurman and
Senator Beverage and other persons
recently returned from Manila are not
at all points in strict accord, though
the items Of divergence are not known
beyond the White House. 1t is said
that as Admiral Dewey is near the
United States the opportunity to have
a netting of the full Philippine COM
mission, Of which he is member, is
one that should not be lost, and the
report that may be expected to sum up
their work will be indispensable TO
Congress in its efforts at legislation for
the islands. No statement can be had
officially as to the future of the COM
mission, but it is not regarded as prob
able that it will return to the islands,
at least not without considerable
change in personnel. The recall Of
Messrs. DENLY and Worcester will leave
Gen. Otis the sole representative of the
commission in the Philippines.
WASHINGTON, September 15.-Ow-
ing to the impossibility Of obtaining
material it is possible that two OF the
transports, the Lodan and Meade, will
not be repaired in time to take the
troops destined for Manila so as to land
them there before Christmas. The
Cramps have informed the department
that the Thomas will be completed on
the date agreed upon, but the other
contractors say that the ships will not
be ready before November 18th. The
department. however, will not allow
this to interfere with the schedule ar
ranged, as additional ships on the Pa
cific coast can be obtained. The Sec
rotary of War is determined to have all
the twenty regiments raised in this
country in the Philippines before Janu-
airy LIST. 1t is possible that the Logan
and Meade will be used to take the
two colored regiments recently ordered,
when they are ready to sail.

STOOD HIS GROUND,

There recently visited in Detroit a
military man whose beautiful wife was
an instantaneous favorite with all those
who had the pleasure of meeting her
She was tall erect, graceful, with
positive wealth of health and color
The romance of her courtship was en-
tirely out of the usual, according to
the Free Press.
A hard-headed and rugged old
Southerner suddenly became rich
through the discovery Of coal in hills
so steep that they defined all effort at
cultivation. He was widower with
one daughter, and nothing was left un-
done that money would do for her.
She was worthy of this lavishment of
riches and added the charm of intel
lcctual attainments to those bestowed
by nature. As result the father be-
came the possessor of the idea that
there was not one man in million
worthy of such 4 daughter, and reso-
lutely set himself the task of driving
away the other 999,999 as they might
present themselves.
They came, but when they asked of
the old gentleman the privilege of
becoming suitors he promptly created
4 hurricane. He gave the signing
swains to plainly understand that they
were too utterly unworthy and that
their presence in the future would be
the signal for opening up from an am
buscade vaguely limited at. Lover
after lover had ridden desperately
away from his door before the sun of
Mars appeared. Upon him the stern
parent opened up after the usual man
ner. The military man was charac-
terized as presumptuous, mercenary
and impertinent. The soldier smiled
and declined to blush. He laughed
and snapped his fingers when the old
gentleman followed up with another
outburst.
keep it going" he said, 'you do
it admirably. What an actor you are!
You have driven away score of craven
youths decline to be terrified. But
you are superb in the part"
Then the old gentleman wilted, sung
low and surrendered, subject to the
approval of the daughter, which was
promptly given.
