penses and keeping them down as far
as possible. does all the carving Of
game. meats and fish which are TO
tempt the royal palates.
There is many a sweet tooth at the
palace, and for the delectation of these
there are two confectionerS at salaries
of Sl,5o0 and 81. 200 each.
The royal laundry consists of a pref
ty stone building near Richmond park
Special boxes are made to hold the
soiled clothes of royalty. each box be-
ing made of cedar and having a brass
plate bearing the name of the owner of
the clothes. A most costly soap is used,
and delicate odor is given TO the
clean garments by drying them on
sweetbrier bushes. When the servants
at the palace get married or become
too old TO work. they are given home
and some small duties which give them
enough TO live on. for no servant has
ever been known to be discharged.
Queen Alexandra is very much de-
pendent in all personal matters on
her private secretary, Miss Charlotte
KnolTys who occupies position which
is envied by every other Englishwom-
an. She is now and has been for many
years Queen AleXandra's most init
mate friend. King Edward also enter
tains very cordial feelings of friend
ship for Miss Knollys. Her father. Sir
Francis Knollys, is private secretary
to the king and held the same position
TO the late Queen Victoria.
Miss Knollys is a quiet and unas-
Stunning little woman. What her posi-
ton means only those can comprehend
who have some knowledge of the eX-
tensive and variegated correspondence
of royalty as well as the delicate diplo-
matte duties which fall to the lot of n
queens private secretary.
The proper disposal of all the cues
tons that arise in a queens personal
business requires a comprehensive
knowledge of the social and official
standing of every person with whom
the queen or her household may come
into contact.
Some time ago it was reported that
Miss Knollys would soon be made a
peeress in her own right. She would
thus become eligible for the highest
position in the queens household.
The name Knollys is pronounced as
if written Knowles. Besides being an
intimate of the queen Miss Knollys is
the "chum" of the princesses, who re-
gard her with affection.

THE TRUSTS AND THE TARIFF

tFrom the Minneapolis Times.]
President Roosevelt is quoted as say
ing that removing the tariff on articles
made by trusts would not remedy mat
ters or. at least, but slightly and would
result in hardship to manufacturers
outside of the big combinations.
The argument is that used by the
New York Sun and other protection pa
pers who go into figures 1t is stated.
for example. that the United States
steel trust, against which public senti-
ment is most adverse as connected with
undue protection, represents only rs per
cent of the manufactured iron and steel
output of this country. 1t is argued
that the producers of the other 25 per
cent would be ruined by the removal of
the tariff. AS matter of fact, of that
other Is per cent fully Is is represented
by the Pennsylvania railroad mills stu
ated on the Patapsco and on the Sus-
quehanna. or by other equally wealthy
corporations. Allowing. then. that IL
per cent of the OUTPUT comes from in
dependent manufacturers 1--WE do not
believe the amount is anything like SC
large. must rs million people continue
to pay by the nose. for a necessity OF
modern life because a small fraction OF
the manufacturing interests of this
country would suffer were the price re-
duced to the cost to foreigners, carriage

pretended, that a reduction of the tarif1

STANDS BY BANKS
That Money Stringency Will Be
Relfeyed.


Washington. Sept. Secretary Shaw
today gave out the following state
ment:
Money once covered into the treas
ury land this. of course. includes the
sub-treasuries) cannot thereafter be de-
posted in banks. All custom receipts
are by law payable to the sub treasur-
lies and treasury. The. only fund there
fore available In banks is internal reve-
nue. and miscellaneous receipts before
they have been actually covered into the
treasury They amount to about half
a million per day. and since the string
ency arose to their fullest extent. have
been steadfastiy returned to circuia-
ton This policy will be continued for
80 or go days and longer If necessary.
In the meantime national bank cir
cuiation has been increased about ST.
900. largely induced by the distribu-
ton of deposits and the further increase
to the amount of eight millions is as
sured.
'.AT rumors of experiments have been
unauthorized by the treasury depart
ment. 1t is to be hoped that the public
will place no credenee in vagaries start
ed by irresponsible and entrusted men
of the street 1t is also hoped that the
country will understand that the tree s.
ury department., to the extent OF its
ability, will stand by the banks. east
hoped also that the banks will stand
by every business and every interest
that is worth protecting.
The only way to get money out OF
the treasury into circulation after 1t
has actually been covered in, is by the
payment of legal obligations of the gov
eminent. These may be Anticipated
The department did anticipate the Oc-
tober interest. It now offers to antici-
pate all interest maturing between Oc-
tober 1 and the end of the fiscal year If
presented within so days, at a rebate OF
two-tenths of one per cent. Der month,
which is at the rate of "a per cent per
annum. In other words. these obliga-
tons will be prepaid at such rate as
to allow the government to profit there
by at "a per cent per annum. The
amount maturing before June 80, 1903
is in round figures $40. 65O, 000 The
profit to the government, If this offer
shall be accepted, will be in round fig
ures 1920 900.
There will be no experiments tried
and no policy adopted until after ma
ture elaboration and no feelers will be
sent out. Anything to the contrary
should be discredited.''
Regarding the published report that
he had resigned. Secretary Shaw said:
II denied this rumor in Chicago. 1t
would seem unnecessary to repudiate a
story that has no author and is built
upon false assumption and is enlarged
upon simply to fill space. The presi-
dent and secretary of the treasury are
in thorough harmony. OF this there need
be no doubt if the speeches made by
the president and the secretary will be
read and compared, instead of the head
