THE BRITISH THRONE.

The theory of the English constitu'
ton Is that the throne OF Great Britain
lie never vacant. In other words, the
sovereign never dies, the succession OF
an heir being instantaneous. Hence,
as DeBrett explains it, the ceremony OF
coronation is merely solemn recogni.
ton and confirmation of royal descent
and the consequent right of accession
to the throne, and 1t is unnecessary for
the security OF the title to the crown.
Il is customary on the death OF the
sovereign for the Archbishop of Csnter-
bury and the prime minister to notify
the heir apparent OF bis accession,
though even this Ia technically super
huous. The notification to the people
is made by proclamation through the
lord mayors and the lord lieutenants
OF counties, etc.
The death of the sovereign also
brings the existing government to an
eud. The premier resigns and parlia-
nent is Immediately dissolved. A gen.
eral election Ia ordered and the sover.
eign requests the ministers to retain
their portfolios pending the result of
the election. The coronation is usual
" deferred for some months. Queen
Victoria was crowned year and some
days after her secession.
The succession OF the new Prince Of
Wales to that title is quite different.
When the present Prince Of Wales be.
comes king the title merges In that Of
the sovereign. The king then coDfers
1t by letters patent upon his son II he
sees ft. The sovereign's eldest son
becomes Duke OF Cornwall, automati-
cslly, ss it were, and is entitled 10 the
revenues of that duchy, which now
amounts to $4,000 per annum, for the
benefit OF tho present Prince of Wales.

A SCENE IN THE SENATE.

Inc Senate yesterday afternoon COL
firmed the nomination OF James f.
Harlan to be Attorney General of the
leland OF Porto Rico by vote of 43 to
81. This result was reached, however,
only after one OF the most sensational
scenes OF the session. Senator Hawley
characterized an article written by
Senator Chandler more than twenty
years ago as @ lie and the writer as o
liar before he knew who the author was
and then, when the identity ofthe writer
was made known to him, he insisted
that the article was an invention and
that the writer was still liar.
Mr.. Chandler replied by referring to
the mental incompetency of the Senator
from Connecticut, and subsequently, in
the presence of several Senators accused
Mr.. Hawley of laboring under undue
excitement, or being Incapable of I'M
derstandiug the import of the language
he had used. Incidentally the subject
OF tho purchase of Senatorial seats was
brought into the discussion, Mr.. Teller
declaring that there was little differ
ence between the Montana case and
that OF the election of Senator Hanna.
The controversy grew out OF q letter
written by Senator Chandler, in 1877,
and which was read by Senator Petit
grew. concerning the controversy over
the Hayes. Tilden election, in which
reference was made to the part taken
by Senator Hawley and Justice Harlan
(oeither then occupying bic present
place) in the settlement of the Louis.
lana controversy OF that time.
In that letter Mr.. Chandler stated
| that commission of which those two
gentlemen were members had been
sent to Louisiana by President Hayes
to destroy the Packard State govern.
| ment. This having been accomplish
| ed, Mr.. Chandler then said the Presi-
dent then undertook to recognize"
the members OF the commission, giving
General Harlan the appointment of an
associate justice and offering General
Hawley the place of the director OF the
Paris Exposition, which the latter had
declined, Mr.. Chandler said, because Of
the inadequscy of the sslary.
When this point In the article WAS
reached Mr.. Hawley interrupted In q
somewhat excited manner to denounce
the statement ss false, which he did In
very emphatic and plain language. Mr..
Chandler replied in like manner, say
Ing chat the article had been prepared
by him 20 years ago; that 1t had never
before been contrsdicted and that he
still stood by it. He added that the
whole subject was ancient history, and
announced his intention to vote for
Mr.. Hsrlan's confirmation.

HANNA CALLS ON MORGAN.
Reported Coal Combination Was Not
 Discussed.

New York, July S.-United States Senator Hanna, President Cassatt of the Pennsylvania Railroad, and c. A. Griscom of the American Line, called at the office of J. P. Morgan today.
 Senator Hanna said that he called simply to pay his respects to Mir. Nor gan and that no conference was held concerning the reported coal combina7 tion.
 Mir. Cassatt said his visit to Mir. Morgan was of no particular signifi- canoe. He declined to say what was the subject discussed at the meeting.
 It was said in Wall Street that no formal consolidation of the bitumin- ous coal interests is likely to he con- summated for some months, and that there is a movement in that direction,
 The Mail and Express says 1t is like ly that the railroads which haul bitum- inous coal will divide the control of the mines among themselves, just as has been done lately in the anthracite re- gions of Pennsylvania.
