LORD ROBERTS. DECLINES II


Lord Roberts, of Waterford, Kanda-
har and Pretoria, was made a knight
of the Garter, as we'll as an earl for
his services in South Africa. Brewers
distiilers and coal mine owners may be-
come earls, if they are conspicuous and
rich enough, but not every man who
wants to can write himself K. G. In
order to get into this peculiarly dis
tinguished order of knighthood one
must either be born great or achieve
greatness as Lord Roberts did on more
than one occasion in long and honor
able career. Reigning princes, emf
nent statesmen and famous soldiers
have always welcomed an investiture
of the Garter, in spite of Beaconsfield's
questionable compliment, which de-
scribed it as an order about which
there was no damned nonsense of
merit" When man is knight of the
Garter he is privileged to be addressed
in terms of familiarity by the king of
England, who is the head of. the order,
and on state occasions he may sit in a
stall especially set apart for him in St.
Georges chapel and watch the air stir
his banner, which hangs with his es-
cutcheon on the wall above. Lord Rob-
erts' stall is ready for him whenever
he chooses to occupy it, but his banner
and his armorial bearings, of which the
supporters are, or should be, two Beers
rampant, are conspicuous by their alb
sence. He cannot tack up his coat-of-
arms or hoist his flag until he pays one
thousand dollars to the herald's college,
which justifies its existence by taxing
folks who have pedigrees and crests
and all the other things, including
coats-of arms, that pertain to the nom
sense of the middle ages. Lord Rob-
.erts is the first knight of the Garter
who has refused to be assessed for the
doubtful privilege of hanging his en-
blems above his seat in church. In as
Stunning this stand he is, of course,
aware that he is a rank iconoclast and
an unreasonable contemner of prece-
dent. But If he can induce future
knights of the Garter to follow his fine
example, the herald's college may yet
quit business in disgust, which, nobody
can deny, would be good thing

NO COTTON CROP REPORT LEAK
Failure to Find Amy thing to Sustain
New York Charges.

Washington, D. c.. Dec. 5.-Secretary
Wilson said to-day that he did not be-
lieve the charges published in New
York that the information on last
Wednesdays government crop report
had leaked out in advance. Mr.. Wilson
said that although he was away last
Wednesday he had made Investigations
of similar allegations in the past and
despite the most searching efforts of
the secret service agents who cooper
ated with the department he was un-
able to find anything to sustain the
charges.
John Hyde, statistician of the de-
partment OF agriculture, said to-day
that leak in the report was absolute
ly impossible. 1t was 10:45 o'clock
Wednesday morning, he said, before he
was able to approximate the figures,
and no one but himself saw the fig
ures before their approval by the act
ing secretary of agriculture and their
immediate PRONUNCIATION by the tele-
graph companies at noon. The reports
are received from six different sources,
county, township and state agents,
etc.; and from the figures THUS given
him separately Mr.. Hyde makes up the
official figures. Mr.. Hyde says that no
final figures are made UP and no one
sees them until submitted to the secre-
tary for approval.
