ENORMOUS INCOME
OF Queen Victoria and Her Large
Private Fortune.
New York Tribune.

New York Tribune.
The wealth Of the queen of England is
vast 1t cannot be accurately computed,
partly because there Is no one person who
Is cogniZant of all of her sources Of in
come. In fact, what is known to the
public is vast, while there is much which
Is known only officially, and is kept con-
fidential. She still draws as the widow
of Prince Albert the 100000 which was
annually allowed him by parliament. She
has also inherited the private fortune OF
her mother, the late Duchess of Kent,
and which brings In a yearly income of
38,0e0. 1t Is known that she receives a
yearly income of 100000, which goes into
her private purse without regard to any
of the revenues accruing to ner office or
for the support of her royalty. 1t is GER
tain that Victoria has saved large pri-
vate fortune. This Is outside of the
amounts set aside for the proper support
of each member Of the royal family, each
one of whom has a separate allowance.
Many individuals have been known to
make requests in favor of the queen, sew
eral of which have been large fortunes.
Besides the money wealth of the queen
her collection of jewels alone Is prodig-
ious. Her gold plate, which is used only
at court festivities, is estimated as of
vast value, and consists chiefly of dish
results of years of accumulation Of for
mer monarchs. Other treasures In the
way of furniture, ornaments, wearing ap-
parel and other personal and household
effects and works of art tapestries, rugs,
carriages, horses, ETC., would reach
huge sum if carefully appraised.
The expense of keeping up the royal
household Is still another matter, which
is taken care of by the government, even
to the extent of each of the royal pal
aces and residences.
The Prince of Wales receives 9100,000
annually, or about $50O,000, while each of
his brothers and sisters receives regal In
comes as we'll 1t has been claimed occa-
sionally that the president of the United
States receives an immense salary. But
out of his $4,000 he is obliged to defray
much of. his expenses, few of the most
ordinary expenses being betrayed by the
government over and above his salary.

Walking into the Office of the superin-
tendent at the Minnesota Transfer short
ly after l o'clock this morning Albert
Wehrly, an elderly man Of respectable
appearance, asked to be taken care OF,
saying he had been wandering about since
Saturday night III g. state of mental alb
straction. How he reached the transfer
Wehrly said he did not know. His face
was bruised and slightly cut, while blood
sprinkled his clothing. The man was in
an apparently weakened condition ply
sically and appeared under mental strain.
Wehrly was taken to the Prior avenue
police station. Here he could give little
explanation of his wanderings. He said
he worked for Henry Voges, a gardener,
living on McMenemy street, near Hya-
cinth. He said he left home to go down
town Saturday night, and remembered
having had several drinks in a saloon.
After this, Wehrly said, he could remem-
Der nothing. He claimed to have had 81
when he left home, but when he recov-
cred his faculties at the transfer this
morning his pockets were empty. Wehrly
was unable TO explain how he received
the bruises about his head.

has been threatened by the military forces

Democrats that they will make no re-
sistance In the event of arrest and con-
veyance to London, but that when they
arrive they will not vote upon any sub
ject that may be brought before the ses-
sion.
There have been numerous rumors all
day that the Democrats intend to hold
session of their own at some place in
the state outside of Frankfort. Some
times the rumors named Covington and
some times it was London. The report
could not be substantiated in any way,
however Representative G. T. Berrin,
who was about the only member of the
house around the Capitol, hotel today,
said that he had been advised to go
away from Frankfort until after the Re
publicans had started their session in
London, but said that he had decided
to remain here. He denied that there
was any intention to hold a Democratic
session of the legislature at some place
outside of the capitai of the state.

GOV. POINTER OPPOSED.
VIII Fight the Plan of the National
Live Stock Association.

Live stock Association.
LINCOLN, Neb., Feb. 4.-Gov. Poynter
has given notice of his intention OF fight
ing the plan, of the National Livestock
association, announced at its Fort Worth
convention i. E., that the arid lands OF
the United States should be leased to the
highest bidders. He thinks a better plan
would be to have the general govern
-ment cede such property to the various
states and allow the legislatures of those
states to dispose of the land as they
find proper His fear is that the large
stock raisers will be able to overbid the
settlers and thus keep them out.
At a meeting of the centennial commit
tee, at Washington, which most of the
state representatives will attend, Gov.
POINTER will call meeting OF the West
ern governors for the purpose Of com>
batting the proposition of the live stock
men, He is prompted to take the init1a>
tive because of the continual quarreling
and occasional collisions between the cat
tlemen and small ranchers in Western
Nebraska and the fear that some of the
clashes may result seriously.

Section st. Paul Socialist Labor party
was addressed yesterday afternoon at
Assembly hail by f. Anderson, of Mime
apolis. His subject was Reform and
Revolution
At the outset Mr. Anderson said that
there were many errors and fallacies re-
garding this subject to be corrected by
socialist agitators. The definition of rev
olution'' had been generally accepted as
meaning bloody strife. But 1t did not
mean that at all times. 1t really signified
an advance. There could be no real rev.
olution without evolution: Reforms
could not be conducted in a loose way.
Revolution, as understood by the socialist
simply meant change, not mb-throwing
We needed complete revolution in our
social system from the inside.
At Minneapolis, where the speaker re-
sided, near the falls, there was an island
known as Spirit Island. There was a
dark tragedy connected with it's history.
An Indian maiden had leaped from 1t
into the river But it was not the same
island it was 200 years ago. In its topog-
raphy there had been a radical change
This change had altered it's whole nat
ural resources.
Many people thought it was easier to
pet some special reform, thinking 1t could
become successful They forgot that the
seed of evil still remained. Reforms
have always fallen through. They are
reactionary. Socialists laid all evils at
the door of capitalism Unless socialists
educated themselves by science and in
vestigation they could do nothing. Pri-
vate ownership had been the curse of all
i, the races. Capitalists, equipped with
machinery, can make slaves of the peo-
pie.
Some people believe that conditions
must remain as they are. This was far
from being true During the past 100
years evolution had gradually supplanted
the work of man by machinery Today
reform forces are trying to bring about
the abolition Of trusts, department stores,
etc. This was an impossibility They
were the natural results of an evolution
that no man can stop. There had been a
time when barbarians killed and ate their
captives. Now they have learned better
They make of him a work slave by the
aid of machinery. Socialism has In hand
to bring about a complete revolution and
give to every man his full share of all
he earns.

ENGINEER SWAN ExoNERATED
NOT TO BLAME FOR EXPLOSION
ON YACHT CAPARON.

Coroner Vandever yesterday held an
inquest at Delaware City TO investigate
the cause Of the death OF Captain
George A. Cleayer, who was killed by
an explosion on the government yacht
Caparon, on January IL last.
About thirty-five witnesses were ex-
amined and the investigation consumed
much time. After all the evidence
had been heard the jury rendered the
following verdict, vindicating Engi-
neer Swan, of the yacht:
Resolved. That Captain George A.
Cleaver came to his death from shock
and by inhaling steam on January IL,
1900, in an accident caused by the ex-
plosion of tubes in a Seabury boiler in
the launch Caparon, used by the quar-
termaster's Department of the United
States army. The accident occurred in
no way through the neglect or fault Of
the engineer, for there is no way in
this boiler Of knowing whether all the
tubes are clear OF sediment. These
boilers have been condemned for yacht
purposes on account OF the liability to
accidents OF this kind, they being liable
to occur in spite of all care and pre-
caution by the engineer. Men using
them in launches are continually in
danger"
The inquest was held at the Robin
son House, the jury being composed OF
the follOwing Francis Mcintyre,
foreman; Ferris Giles, secretary; F. A.
Pennington, w. A. Jester. James Clark,
W. r. Smith and Giles II. Rose.
Engineer Swan was not present, hav-
ing been called to Washington to an
swer charge Of carelessness before a
military board of inquiry. He was
represented by ex-senator Higgins.

TIN CANS AT CREMATORY
INJURIOUS TO CRATE BARS WHEN
DUMPED IN LARGE NUMBERS.

Chairman Willis, of the Crematory
Committee of Council. states that a
number Of persons are in the habit Of
placing tin cans in their garbage re-
ceptacles and sending them to the ere
matory TO be consumed.
In speaking of the matter this morn
ing Superintendent Cannon, of the
crematory, said that in every load OF
garbage dumped into the furnaces there
are more or less cans which the en-
ployes are unable to remove from the
refuse. A small number Of cans do not
impede the work of the furnaces, but
when they are received in large num-
bers the crate bars become clogged and
often break.
Mr.. Cannon also stated that on last
Saturday week a driver for one of the
garbage contractors dumped an entire
CARLOAD OF tin cans into the furnace be-
fore he was detected by. the crematory
employees, greatly hindering the work
OF the fires. The driver was per-
emptorily discharged by the contractor.
In a few days the work Of repairing
the furnaces will be completed, and the
plant will be inspected by the Crema-
tory Committee.

FOR BETTER WATER
CHESTER PROCEEDS AGAINST |
COMPANY TO SECURE A WHOLE
SOME SUPPLY.

Chester, March S.-An action at law
was begun yesterday to secure a more
wholesome supply Of water. The suit
is directed against the new Chester
Water Company, and was instituted by
City Solicitor A. A. Cochran, repre-
senting ngtwenty-one complaining citizens,
under the act of April 20, 1874, which
gives any citizen the right to complain
to the court of either the quality or
quantity of water furnished by the
water company.
The complainants demand that the
company furnish good water during
the entire year. For three months out
Of the twelve, it is alleged, water un-
fit for use is supplied. Samples Of the
water supplied lately by the company
have been analyzed and bottled for ex-
hibits in court. The proceedings will
come up in April.
One Of the main points OF the defense
will be that the water is contaminated
by the city sewage. AS the suit is
brought, not by the city, but by citi-
zens, the force Of this argument, it is
held, will be materially weakened.
