THE CORONATION DAY.
Be Crowned Between August s
and 12-PrOcessionA Abandoned.

London, July lit was officially
stated Friday that the coronation of
King Edward will take place between
August and August IL. The pro-
posed procession has been abandoned.
1t is officially announced that there
will be no royal programme, as orig
inally planned, the day after the
coronation, and there will be no pro-
cession apart from that in which
their majesties will proceed from
Buckingham palace to Westminster
abbey and return.
1t is now considered practically
certain, in view of this announce
ment, that King Edward will be
crowned Saturday, August 9, since
the holding of the coronation cere-
mony Monday, August IL, would in
volve another full bank holiday, with
the attendant dislocation of general
business, while Saturdays are almost
universally observed as half holidays.
The fixing of such an early date for
the coronation is regarded as an adj
ditional guarantee of the confidence
the kings physicians have in con-
tinuance of his rapid recuperation.

Insurance Decision.

Chancellor Cook of Nashville
handed down an opinion in the case
of the State against the Tennessee
Manufacturing Company of great in
terest to property owners and insur-
ance companies.
The company had placed insurance
on its paint in companies outside
the State, and the State insurance
commissioner, not being able to
reach the outside companies, endeav-
ored to force the company to pay the
State tax on premiums paid the for
eign companies. The chancellor held
the law under which the commits
sioner was acting to be unconstitu-
tional and dismissed the bill.
Many thousands of dollars of insur-
ance have been placed with compa-
MES licensed to do business in the
State because of fear that if the in
surance was given non-hcensed COM
panies the insurer would have to pay
the tax on premiums paid.
