London, June 2.-TweAty-two Aser-
lean gentlemen dreSsed Ia the eep
black Of British court ua0urning. rpre-
senting many millions Of money and
vast commercial interests, wefe the
guests Of King Edward yesterdA. At
Windsor.
The American guests Of the Fling
were the delegates Of the New York
Chamber Of Commerce. The visit vas
arranged by the London Chambe Of
Commerce, the president Of witch,
Lord Brassey, accompanied the Amer
lean party. The visitors were greatly
impressed and pleased by their adj
ence of the King, who was just as In
terested at meeting them ~ they we're
at meeting him.
The King had expressed coniiaera-
BILE curiosity to see what nance OF
men these multi-milli0nalres miaiE Ike,
especially Messrs. Morgan and Cirne-
gle. As regards the latter, thd King
was disappointed. for Mr.. Carnegie
was unable to be present. From the
King down all the officials conceltrat
ed their attention ON Mr.. Mp-gan.
Their curiosity was not unmlxed with
awe.
One Of the high officers Of the Aouse-
hold confessed that an inspection Of
the list Of visitors made them tremble
lest Mr.. Morgan or one OF the other
millionaires should take = fancy to
Windsor and buy II.
Apart from this personal point Of
view, Lord Pelham Clinton, master Of
the household. said the King regarded
the presence In England OF such q rep
resentative body Of American business
men as highly signihcant Of the close
and friendly relations existing between
the two countries. and In fuftherance
of that feeling he was delighted to
welcome them to his castle and make
their acquaintance.
After an inspection OF the grounds,
the delegates were taken to the east
terrace, where they were received by
the King. They were surprised to find
that the Queen was also present, for
her appearance was quite unexpected
With the King and Queen were the
Princess Victoria and the children Of
the Duke and Duchess OF Cornwall
and York. Each delegate was formal
ly presented to both the King aud
Queen, shaking their hands.
This ceremony over, the King asked
