EDWARDS CIVIL LIST.
Parliament Notified that II Must Be Increased
Criticism Of Gen. ColviIIe.

London, March lin the House of
Commons. today. Sir Michael Hicks
Beach, chancellor of the exchequer in
moving the appointment of a commit
tee to consider the civil list conveyed
hint that an increased civil list
might be expected. He said that while
the governments proposals would be
based on the late Queen Victoria's civil
list, 1t must be remembered that King
Edward had Queen Consort and that
he was not only King of the United
Kingdom. but the head of world
wide empire.
In previous reigns the Parliament
has been asked to pay the debts of the
sovereign. but no such application vas
ever made by Queen Victoria. The
country might look forward with con
fidencc to King Edward. who has for
many years occupied an exceptional
position, involving exceptional expnri-
enceS. His income. although not large
when compared with that Of some pri-
Vate individuals, had sufiiced him to
perform his duties in a manner which
had won the gratitude Of the country.
The proposals would be framed il a
spirit of justice to the throne and peo-
pie.

the government promised to alter The
monarch's anti-Catholic declaration,

WILL CURTAIL PRODUCTION.
Fall River Mills About 100000 Pieces
Ahead OF the Market

Fan River, Mass, March 1.-THE
selling committee Of the Fan River
Manufacturers Association. ating
reached an opinion as 10 the necessary
sep to relieve the present Stagnation
in the print cloth market. today, an
nouncod that special meeting Of the
general body would b. called within 4
day or two at which time a PROPOSE
ton from the selling committee would
w placed before the general body call
ing for Curtailment of the production
by local manufacturers of term of
weeks and months. to be determined
by the manufacturers themselves. This
proposition the committee expects will
receive the endorsement of the mill
men in the association.
IN taking this step the committee has
been able to compromise the factions
in the local mill circles. one interest
advocating Curtailment by general
agreement and the other 4 reduction Of
wages and curtailment, either inde
pendent or in common. The selling
committee makes no proposition on the
wage question.
At present there is a surplus of
about 1000 600 pieces Of cloth in this
city. equal To the full production of
the mills for eight weeks. The weekly
production here amounts to about go,
900 pieces and il may be decided to
curtail for n term of weeks. during
which the production Of the mills may
amount to the present stock on hand.
Such move would have an effect sim
liar to the purchase Of 2.000.000 pieces
Of goods without placing that amount
in The buyers hands.
