ST. James place, Temple bar and the
Royal exchange, with all the quaint,
medieval scenes which marked the &C.
casion of the proclaiming of the Access
sion of the king. Today's ceremonial
was unheralded, SO the crush was not
SO great as on the previous occasion, but
crowds quickly gathered from all direc-
tions and thronged the points at which
the announcement was read The cere-
mony began at St. James, where, from
the purple draped balcony. of the palace,
the Norroy king of arms CWilliam Henry
Weldon, in a brilliant uniform, accom-
panied by heralds and pursuivants in
gorgeous tabards. and numerous state
officials, read the proclamation.

macers, bearing gold maces, and sur
rounded by the blue mantle. Gordon

aid (Alfred Scott-Gatty) and the Windsor
Herald Civilian Alexander Lindsay, all
in their full official regaha and the Earl
Marshal (the Duke of Norfolk the Lord
Steward Che Earl of Pembroke) the Lord
Chamberlain Ghe Earl of Clarendon) and
others. The trumpeters sounded a fan
fare and then the Norroy king of arms
barred his head and read the proclama-
ton in clear voice, which must have
been audible to the royal party, occupy
ing a stand the grounds of MARI
borough house, facing the balcony of
the palace. King Edward wore an ad-
miral's uniform. Queen Alexandra and
the others of the royal party watched
the ceremony with the greatest interest,
the king using field glasses to obtain
clearer view.
As the Norroy king of. arms concluded
with the words, God save the king"
the trumpeters again sounded fanfare,
the king in the meantime standing at
the salute.
A procession was then formed, led by a
detachment of the Horse guards, five
royal carriages, containing the heralds,
pursuivants and other officials, proceed
ed to the Temple bar and the Royal ex-
change, where the form&lities less pic
turesuue, perhaps. were repeated.
Lord Mayor Green and the sheriffs met
the procession at Temple bar.

HE WILL SOON OWNLONDON
CHARLES Il. YERKEs TO ELECTRI-
Fly THE BRITTSHERS.

LONDON. June 2S-The preliminary
committee having the matter in charge
was again occupied with the question OF
the electrifcation of the underground
railroads. AS the companies are unable
to settle their differences as to whether
the Yerkes or GEM systems shall be in
stalled, the committee decided that the
board of trade should appoint an arbi-
traitor to determine which system shall
be adopted
The committee subsequently, approved
the legislation proposed to enable Charles
I. Ierkes to electrify the roads, subject
to the decision of the arbitrators and
engineers appointed by the respective
railroads, in regard to the system to be
installed.
Speaking to a representative of the AS
ISOLATED Press tonight Mr.. Yerkes said:
THE result of today's meeting of the
parliamentary committee is eminently
satisfactory. Now the question of the
system to be adopted is left in the proper
hands. have no doubt the work will
proceed rapidly enough.
The English people are children to
matters of electric traction construction.
They regard the whole problem as some
great mystery. When 1t comes to select
ing a system, we will easily demonstrate
to them that the American system in
use on thousands of miles of lines In the
United States In infinitely superior to any
yStem in Europe"

torrents Of rain, struck Minneapolis yes
terday afternoon with a vengeance. At

the early afternoon, and at 3:5 the
storm king took the throne and ruled

a dozen others were badly injured and
thousands Of dollars worth of property
was destroyed. Trees and telegraph
poles were snapped like twigs and avn

the wind.
The storm entered the city from the
northwest, and It's path was fully
mile wide. That sickening roar SO pecu-
liar to tornadoes preceded it and fright
cned families sought shelter in cellars.
Had the storm been more compact
there is little doubt that the fatalities
and wreckage would have been appall-

was scattered, and Minneapolis escaped
a catastrophe, the dire results OF which
can only be imagined.

At three O'Clock Saturday afternoon, the
City Council of San Juan in open and
public session, held at the Acadia, opened
the bids made for the floating of the San
Juan Oity loan Of S6O0,00O. There were
five bidders, all of whom made offers which
were more favorable then the one rejestd
by the Executive Council some scseks ago.
The best offer ioas made by Messrs j. M.
Oeballos s. Co of New York O,ty, who
offered to pay a premium of S,375 on the
bonds. The awsrd has not been made, but
in all probability Messrs Ceballos will re-
ceive the contract.
The high price paid for tkese bonds SHOULD
furnish cause for sincere qualification on the
part of the City Council, the Executive
Council, and the people Of this city. The
first offer made was at 2a per cent. below
par Through misconception OF the law
this offer was accepted by the City Council,
but the Executive Council refused to appro

SIR
With considerable surprise and indigna.
ton 1 read in the San juan News Of yester-
day, the statement that the '.NeHs Protest
Saves Tue only Fortune" By reason of
my being the first bidder to protest against
the $50 900 offer of Messrs Fernald & Co.,
am City too well acquainted with the
facts to permit the statement made by the
News to go uncontradcted. At the meet
ing of the Oity Council held on the 7th OF
October, at which meeting the $4,000
proposition was made, and at which meet
Ing also made my first protest which fin
ally resulted IN the Executive Councils
refusal to confirm the proposition which the
City Council accepted. there was only one
representative OF the local press present,
and that was yourself.
/ read the San Juan News editorial Of
tue next day tavorlng the $50, QUO PROPOSE

day, which openly and courageously attack.
ed the proposition which the San Juan
News favored. can also testify to the
earnest and untlring efforts made by your
paper TO prevent tho acceptance OF the loan
On the terms proposed. 1t credit is due tu
