has become our only lawful and
rinhtfnl lionro -

rlghtful liege.
This proclamation will give the
new title the king may assume but
this is not yet announced to us. The
proclamation will then be sent to the
Heralds College, and the following
day the earl marshal, the Garter king
at arms, the heralds, persuivants and
other officials, the college members,
with the household troops, will pro-
ceed from the palace, clad in their
splendid surcoats and proceed to
Trafalgar Square.
There the king at arms will halt,
command silence and read the procla-
nation. Proceeding down the Strand
to Temple bar, a halt will again be
made to demand an entrance into the
city to proclaim the king. There the
lord mayor, sheriff in their state car
riages, will form q great procession
and when the earl marshal's party
comes just within the city boundary
the proclamation will be read again
and the procession will pass down
Ludgate Hill and CT apside TO the
royal exchange, where similar cere-
monis will close the spectacle.
THE NEWS IN LONDON.
London. The latest bulletins pre-
vious to the announcement of the
queens death, especially the message
sent by the Prince of Wales dispelled
the last CLEAN of hope, the crowd 81
lently dispersed from in front of the
mansion house and few groups
awaited the appearance Of the final
inevitable announcement. A scrap of
paper foot square posted on the
wall of the mansion house at 6 80
O'Clock gave the first notice to Lol-
don's homeward- -hurrying thousands
Of the death of the empress-queen
and the advent Of king Access to
the bulletin was difficult by reason
of the fact that the excavations had
been made in the course of q work of
improving the street.
But the barred heads of a silent
group under fiickering gas jet told
the crowds on the bustops and side
walks that the queen was no more.
A quarter of an hour later moro
than q thousand newsboys had in
vaded the streets with black ruled
newspapers crying death of the
Queen" while through the dark
streets doomed the deep toned notes
of the big bell of St. Paul's Cathedral
and the bells Of the city churchs re-
echoed the news.
Mr.. Balfours message announcing
the queens death says her majesty
died peacefully
All the theatres and places OF en-
tertainment have been closed indefi-
nitely. There is little doubt that the
funeral of Queen Victoria will take
place at Frogmore, though nothing in
regard to this matter has yet been
announced. Her majesty was so
closely related to the European
courts, big and little, that the gath
ering of royalties at the obsequies
will be unpreoed dented
The news of the queens death
reached all the towns in the kingdom
a few minutes after it had been re-
ceived by the lord mayor of London,
and was quickly spread throughout
the country districts by the tolling of
bells.
Prince and Princess Louis of Bate
burg arrived at Osborne just too late
to see her majesty alive.
There is some belief in London that
the privy council at which King Ed
ward VII will take the oath Of acces
sion will be held in London and that
his majesty will start for London
without delay.

NICARAGUAN CANAL.
Republicans Will Not Fix
a Day for Discussion.
A DECISION REACHED
That it Would Be Inwise to Agitate
the Measure Until the Hay.Pann.
cefOte Treaty is Settled.

Washington.-The republican sena-
tors have decided not to set day at
least for the present, for taking up
the Nicaraguan canal bill. The de-
cision was reached after an hour and
half spent in caucus and was unani-
nous. The caucus was called large
ly because Senator Morgan 's.importu-
mites in behalf of the bill and an
earnest effort was made to effect a
satisfactory solution of the problem.
There was a general exchange of
views and many speeches were made
but after all had been said the sena-
tors concluded that so long as Great
Britain's attitude toward the amend
ments to the Hay -Pauncefote treaty
is underlined it would not be wise or
expedient to agitate the question of
the construction Of the proposed ca
nal. Senator Allison, chairman Of the
caucus, was authorized to make this
statement to Senator Morgan and
other friends of the scnnal bill and to
the public generally. In giving it out
he laid stress upon the fact that this
conclusion was ''for the present. :"
He also stated that the question to
what attention should be given to the
ship subsidy bill and to the appro-
priations bill was not discussed, that
matters is sin the hands of the SEN
ate" he said. Notwithstanding the
formal decision to leave the canal
question in abeyance' for the time sew
eral senators gave notice that in case
there should be motion to take up
the canal bill they would not be
bound by the resolution adopted, but
would vote for motion to consider.
In this expression of independence
Senator Platt of New York, was the
leader. He said he considered the
proposed canal .of prime Importance
and would not refrain from voting to
take it up whenever q motion to that
effect is made. Senators Simon, Fos-
ter and Bard followed with similar
declarations. They did not, however.
express determination to themselves
initiate movement in behalf of the
canal but it was suggested that Sena-
tor Morgan would be prevailed upon
to allow the present status to remain.
After the conclusion of the caucus
Senator Allison, as its chairman, gave
out the following:
Senator Morgan, of Alabama. chair
man Of the committee on inter
oceanic canals, made request of the
republicans of the senate for the CON
sideration of the Nicaraguan canal
bill. This request was made to the
committee on the order of business
and this committee made the recon-
mendation to the republican confer
ence that at this time it is not expe-
dient or wise to fix day for the con-
slderation of the bill in view of the
pendency of consideration by Great
Britain OF the amednment proposed
by the senate to the Hay -Pauncfote
treaty. This view was approved by
the republican caucus without di-
vision. There was universal senti-
ment expressed in favor Of the con-
struction OF the canal by the United
States at the earliest practicable time.

ORIENTAL COLONISTS.
A Million Chinese to Be Located in
Mexico.

San Francisco. THE Call says
Back of a steamship company recent,
ly organized in this city with capi.
tai of $12, 600, 900 is plan to coloniza
Mexico with Oriental laborers. Tho
promoters of the scheme, it is assert,
ed, have obtained from the govern
ment of Mexico a vast concession OF
fishing privileges and lands adjacent
to the fishing grounds. They propose
to bring million Chinese to Mexico
and establish fisheries, canneries, and
warehouses along the Mexican coast.
A circular has been issued in the
Chinese language stating that "Tho
Pacific Charter company proposes on
behalf of the Mexican government to
encourage Chinese as well as Euro
peans to come to Mexico where they
will have special privileges.
The circlar adds that "there ia
plenty of room for million fisher
men and invites Chinese merchants to

NOT AFTER SOLVENT CREDIT


Jackso Miss. The publication to
the effect that State Revenue Agent
Writ Adams had in contemplation
bringing series of gigantic back tax
suits in several towns and counties of
the state for the recovery of various
amounts overdue on solvent credits
struck that official with considerable
astonishment as no such program Of
litigation is contemplated and no
statement has been made by him to
such an effect. He says he did not
authorize the announcement and That
the statements are wild and exag-
gerated. The report that Mr. Chiles
had unearthed about $500, 600 worth
of these solvent credits at Columbus
which had never been turned in for
taxation, is entirely without founda-
tion, he says, as no discoveries of the
kind were made at that place. The
revenue agent say the wants no credit
for projecting such enterprises Of
great pith and moment when he is in
no way onnected Herewith.

Utah and California

Are two of the most magnetic names
in the roll of states, and the best way
to reach them is over the Rio Grand
Western Railway, "Great Salt Lake
Route" AS the title intimates, the
Rio Grande Western is the only line
that passes directly through Salt Lake
City on the way to California;; and Salt
Lake City and the Great Salt Lake are
the two points which should certainly
not be missed on your western trip, as
they contain more interest to the
avelage American than any two other
points within the confines of the Uunit-
ed States. Study the matter carefully
and you will choose the Rio Grands
Western in connection with either the
Denver & Rio Grande orColorado Mid
land Railroads, for this reason, as we'll
as for the magnificent scenery, superb
equipment and fast time. 1t is popu-
lar in winter, as in summer; in fact lisa
very attractive route the year round.

When the late Horace Maynard, IL.

ed himself to ridicule and jibing ques-
tons Of his fellow students by placing
over the door of his room a large
square of white cardboard on which
was inscribed in bold outlines the sim

and question, the young man applied
himself TO his work, ever keeping in
mind the height to which he wished to
climb. the first step toward which was

compliments of professors and stu

himself as valedictorian Of his class,
young Maynard called the attention of
his fellow graduates to the letter over

them, and they cried out:
'Is it possible that you had the vale

A Noteworthy Combination.

The consolidation of The Chicago
Record and the Chicago Times. Herald
one of the most important events
in the history of modern metropolitan
journalism. People fam liar with the
newspapers published in the great
capitals of the world say that the best
daily papers are made in Chicago, and
it is we'll known that The Chicago
Record and The Chicago Times Herald
ranked at the very front among Chica-
COS best dailies. Each covered the
worlds news thoroughly every day,
and each possessed also distinctive
special features giving it that individ-
uality SO attractive to its readers. Now
that the two have been combined, all
the resources and worldwide facilities
of both papers are united IN The
Chicago Record. Herald. 1t is in truth
ga great combination"-a combination
without parallel in American journal
ism. The fortunate readers of The
Chicago Record and The Chicago
Times-Herald now receive every day a
newspaper whose news facilities are
unequaled by any other American
newspaper.

ABLAzE WITH ARC LIGHTS.

Brilliant illumination Planned For
the President a San Francisco.
The plans for the reception at San
Francisco Of President Mckinley and
his party provide for the illumination
of the ferry depot tower and the dome
Of the city hall. On the former alone
1880. 16 candle power i~ncandescent
lights will be used. The street illumi-
nation proper will present features de-
parting radically from those Of former
Examinations. Arc lights will be used
instead of incandescent lamps, says the
st. Louis Republic. They will be placed
along either side of the streets to be IL
Illuminated at intervals of about so feet
and alternating.
Each light will be covered with n
large Chinese OF Japanese lantern to
tone down it's glare. Merchants and
property owners are expected to deco
rate and illuminate lavishly, and the
uncovered arc lights would shine with
such a glare that the finer effects
would be destroyed. But with Ian
terms to soften the glare the committee
believes the plan it has hit upon will
provide q novel and beautiful illumina-
ton.
Between the arc lights there will be
hung festoons Of evergreens. and large
flags will be used profusely in the deco
rations. Fireworks are to be set off
along Market street on the night of the
reception.
