Court Circular" tomorrow.
In spite of the denias from Osborne and MARI
borough House. the rumors about the Queens
Illness have alarmed the public and adversely
affected the Stock Exchange.
According to early Cowes kilograms. the Queen
not well yesterday and had not improved
to-day, but later news from Cowes says the
Queen has been suffering from insomnia, but is
better this evening. Sir Francis Laking. surgeon
to Her Majesty, has been called in to consult
with Sir James Reid, Her Majesty's resident ply
sician
Although it is fully understood that there is
no cause for alarm beyond what would naturally
be felt at the indisposition of any one of the
Queens age, the official announcement issued
last evening has caused a shock to the country
the effect of which 1t would be difficult to eXag-
gerate Her Majesty's absolute freedom from
iIlress during the longest reign in English his
tory has led her people to regard her almost
as more than mortal, and the mere novelty of
having to face the possibility of a Regency alone
suffices TO create unnecessary apprehension.
The illness of Empress Dowager Frederick of
Germany, the sudden death of Her Majestys
old friend Lady Churchill, and the incidents of
the war in South Africa have been great trials
to the Queen. but even within a week she has
received Lord Roberts and sent message Of
coincidence to the widow of DR.. Creighton, late
Lord Bishop of London 1t is understood that
the arrangements for the Queens visit to the
south of France are proceeding the lines
originally laid down and it is quite likely that
rest and abstention from work will enable her
to undertake the journey earlier than was orig
inally intended

THE QUEENS HEALTH.
ALARMING REPORTS THOUGHT TO BE

PROGRESS OF THE CAMPAIGN IN SOUTH

London, Jan. 10. 6 a. m.-Serious reports were
current last night respecting the health of the
oueen These came from Portsmouth and
Cowes and from friends of Cabinet Ministers
who were in a position to know the feeling in
Court circles. 1t was reported that the Queen
was suffering from mental depression. insomnia
and loss of appetite; that members OF the Royal
family were alarmed. and that it was not I'M
probable that the Journey to the Riviera would
be deferred. Unfortunately there the strong
est reasons for believing that these reports are
well founded. The Queen was not in her usual
health when she left Windsor, and she has not
derived as much benefit from her residence in
the baImy air of Osborne as was hoped. Her
annette had fallen off before she left Windsor
and she had grown thin and haggard. To fam
ily bereavements and sorrows. with the inCreas-
ing burden of years. were added anXietes
specting the campaign in South Africa. over
which she had been brooding. 1t has been evil
dent that the war with its heavy mortality, was
causing her great distress, for otherwise she
would not have summoned Lord Roberts to Os-
borne for a prolonged consultation soon after
seeing him on his arrival The Royal family.
without a doubt have been seriously concerned
for several months. but everything has been
done TO spare the Queens subjects unnecessary
and she is surrounded with members Of the
Royal family.
The indisposition of the Queen is the leading
tonic in to-day's newspapers. The official an
nouncement that Her Majesty's health is not
satisfactory is regarded of grave significance,
and public anxiety viii not be diminished by the
intimation that the aged English sovereign has
been advised by her doctors TO transact no bust
ness for the present and to remain indoors.
Some provision for signing documents and the
performance of other necessary duties must OBJ
viously be made. But not even the Prince Of
Wales can act for the Queen without authority
Of Parliament. Attention is drawn to the fact
that to-day the venerable ruler of the British
Empire attains the age of eighty-one years and
240 days or one day more than the age reached
by her grandfather George III. at his death. in
1890. Thus Queen Victoria has not only regned
the longest, but has lived the longest OF any
English monarch; and there can, indeed, be no
doubt whatever that THE Times is right when

with serious losses. especially when they take

OF the Orange River where the British campaign
has not been interrupted by the invasion OF
Cape Colony. The raiders have not made prog

invasion and that the Cape Dutch are now less

persistent and resourceful in carrying guerilla

the ultimate failure of their supply OF ammunl-
ton must bring the war to an end.
The response of the Yeomanry to a second call
to arms continues 10 be satisfactory. Recruiting
is in progress at many points, and it is evident
that the number of volunteers asked for can
easily be doubled. The War Office is censured in
many quarters for having recourse TO half meas
ures which will not produce much impression
upon the Boer leaders. The Ministers seem more
anxious to save money than TO convince the
