The interesting point developed at yes
terday's sitting of the Schley Court of
Enquiry was in connection with the
notes OF the battle off Santiago on July
B. 1888, taken from moment to moment
during its progress by Lieutenant Har-
low, executive officer Of the Vixen. The
examination of Lieutenant Commander
Sharp, who commanded the vessel, dis
closed the fact that, IS the witness under
Stood Mr.. Harlow had given copy of
his original notes to Commodore Schiey
Immediately after the battle, but had
corrected them later from memory for
transmission to Sampson with Lieutenant
Commander Sharp's official report. II is
possible that this discrepancy may form
the basis of some further investigation
by the Court

Chicago Intcr-Ocean: The bu

Chicago ntcr-Ocean The bus
mess year Of the firm of Uncle
Sam & Co. ended on Saturday,
and it's bookkecpers at Washing
ton took the trial balance. They
found that cash receipts for the
year had exceeded expenditures
by some SIC, ZOO, 600. The firm
has evidently had a good year.
It's 76, 900, coo odd shareholders,
however some of them may criti-
else the management, will doubt
less all feel that the business is
in good condition. How good a
year the last one has been for
Uncle Sam & Co. will appear from
a few comparisons. In '92, altho'
receipts for the preceding year
exceeded expenditures by SO, 914,
454, the shareholders changed
tue management. The change
did not prove fortunate, for in
'94the firm spentS69, 1903, 261 more
than it received. These deficits
continued, and the shareholders
had such hard times that in 1896
they went back to the old policy
of management. Recovery was
at first slow, and was for a time
apparently impedcd by the mis-
conduct of some of Uncle Sans
neighbors, which compelled him
to undergo heavy extraordinary
expenses. But the shareholders
felt thatthe money was we'll spent
for it avenged the firms injuries,
indicated its honor AID greatly
extended it's influence. And the
business wasprosperlng sogreat-
ly that even these extraordinary
oltlays we're easily borne. The
unskillfu1 managers who had
charge from 1892 to 1896, with
the extraordinary expenditures
just noticed, had put a balance of
some S283,OOO,0 600 on the wrong
side of Uncle Sans ledger. But
the shareholders had confidence
in the new management, went
down into their pockets for $780,
100000 fresh capital, and offered
seven times thatamount if it we're
needed. 1t was not, for in 1900
receipts exceeded expenses by
.o,er S7o,OOO,OO and last year
the credit balance was about $780,
600, 1000. Within a year after the
return to the old policy the profits
of the frm'sforeigntrade doubled
and in another year more than
doubled again, and for the last
year were the greatest ever
known. At the same time all the
shareholders were prospecting as
they never had before. All were
basy and so well pleased with the
management that they decided
last year to continue it four years
more. Uncle Sans latest balance
sheets have shown so we'll that
the shareholders will now have
to contribute less than they have
been doing to working capital.
In that fact, as well as in the
character of the trial balance just
taken, most of them will see new
reasons for congratulating them
selves upon their recent change
of managers for the business Of
Uncle Sam & GO.

How Title of Prince of Wales is Bestowed,

Earl of Chester-probably the first and last occasion on which all those three titles have been conferred simultaneously. Henry VI, who succeeded to the throne before he was year old, was never created Prince of Wales.
 The Letters Patent.
 The letters patent, dated December 8. 1s41, by which Queen Victoria created her eldest son Prince of Wales and Earl of Chester, ran in this form after the usual preamble:
 We do ennobe and invest with the said prineipality and earldom, by girting him with a sword, by putting a coronet on his head and a gold ring on his finger, and also by delivering gold rod into his hand that he may preside there. and may direct and defend those parts; to hold to him and his heirs kings of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland forever"
 It has been argued that the sovereign could not create any one Prince of Wales except his eldest son, but it is doubtful whether this is the case. though the point Is not of much importance, as no sovereign is likely to depart from prcce- dent in the matter It is otherwise with
 
 gether with the dukedom of Rothsay, the earldom of Carrick, the barony of Rem frew, and the dignities of lord of the isles and prince and grea, steward or senechal of Scotland. are immediately i:s- herited by the heir apparent on the throne, or. if not, at his fathers acces- sion. To these should. perhaps, be added the earldom of Dublin. conferred upon the present King in the summer of 1849 Queen Victoria wrote in her journal: T intend to create Bertie Earl of Dublin as compliment to the town and coun- try this was one of my father 8 titles,' but, possibly, by some mistake the new title of the little prince was gazetted as 'in the peerage of the United Kingdom whereas the Duke of Kent 8 earldom was in the peerage of Ireland. :" The dukedom of Cornwall reverts to the crown if it's holder should die leaving issue, and this was the case with George III, who though he was Prince of Wales for nine years before his ascension, was only Duke of Cornwall from the time he ascended the throne to the birth of his eldest son.
 The EarIdom of Chester.
 The earldom of Chester was formerly lprincipality, into which it was erected by the twenty-first of Richard IT. In the relen or denry w., however, this act of Parliament was repealed, and now the title Is always granted together with that of Prince of Wales
 1t should be added that in these letters patent the prince was described as the Prince of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, Duke of Saxony, Duke of Cornwall and Rothsay," etc. We learn from Greville that at Lady Hollands that night the precedence given to the German title over the English titles was much criticised. "It was amusing to hear Lady Palmerston finding fault but Greville told her it was a particular fancy of the Queens to which she clung very tenaciously< The Queen
