The Review of Reviews points out
that in the wild scramble, some years
ago, for the ownership of coal lands
and the control of what were formerly
Independent mining companies. ticti-
tious prices were paid and immense
sums of money invested upon false
economic principles. The existing com
bination is for the purpose of making
the public pay interest and dividends
upon a huge volume Of improper cap
italization. But for this artificial sit
uation, which-morally. if not tech
nically-constitutes the most fragrant
violation of the Sherman antitrust law
TO be found in the whole country, the
public could have cheap coal, the min
ers could have fair wages, and the
railroads could charge reasonable
price for transportation. President
Roosevelt, when called upon in June
to try to bring about settlement of
the coal strike, showed that the law
under which the Pullman strike was
investigated had subsequently been re-
pealed. But Colonel Carroll D. Wright,
head of the department of labor, made
certain inquiries into the facts for the
presidents information. The public
would like to read them.

HoARY WITH ANTIQUITY.

In some cases the family statutes are
hoary with antiquity, as, for instance,
those of the imperial house of Haps-
burg. In others they have been amend
ed, as, for instance, in the house of
Hchenzollern. which fifty years ago
were so altered as to transfer the
chieftainship of the dynasty from the
senior branches of Hohenzollern-Sig-
maringen and Hohenzillern- Hechingen
to the junior branch occupying the
throne of Prussia, and at the head of
which is now Emperor William.
In Russia the family statutes were
radically reorganized in the reign of the
late Car in 1856. Although the con-
sent of the ''agnates" of the sovereign
house of Romanoff was given thereto.
yet it may be doubted whether it was
altogether voluntary. For the emperor
had, and still has, 1t in his power to di-
vest of his honors. to confiscate the es-
tates. and to Danish either to Siberia,
or from Russian territory, any grand
duke who does not yield him implicit
and unqestioning obedience.
Indeed clause 95 of the amended fam
lily statutes expressly states Each
member of the imperial family owes to
the person of the reigning emperor in
his quality of chief of the family and
of autocrat, the most complete respect,
obedience. and subjection,"
while Article XCVII declares that "the
emperor in his quality of au-
tocrat has the right to deprive any
member of the imperial family who fails
to observe the prescription of clause 50
of all his prerogatives, status. and pos
sessions conceded to him by the fam
lily statutes, and to punish him in the
same way as any ordinary subject who
has disobeyed the will Of the monarch"

Emperor Francis Joseph in certain
eventualities, save the "agnates"-that
is to say, the adult archdukes and the
minister of the imperial house for the
time being. who is x-officio the chancel-
lor Of these particular laws. AS such he
is bound by the most solemn and IRON
clad oath not to reveal them, and it is
because the Austrian court remains suf-
ficiently imbued with the aristocratic
sentiment to be convinced that greater
dependence is to be placed upon the per-
feet loyalty and honor Of a nobleman
than in that of a man OF plebeian birth.

FEARS SET AT REST.

All these fears. however, have low
oficially made at Luxembourg. to the ef-
feet that clause 42 of the family statutes
of the sovereign house of Nassau, now
occupying the throne Of Luxembourg, and
bearing the date of April 30. 17S3. ex-
pressly stipulate that ''in the event Of
the extinction Of the male line. the eld-
est daughter Of the last male survivor,
or, failing daughters, his sister or near
est female blood relation, shall be en-
titled to the succession of the throne. :"
Nobody outside the immediate mem
bers Of the House OF Nassau were aware
OF the existence of this particular fam
lily starute. which was ignored until the
other day by most of the Old World
governments. and, although it now seems
that a paragraph was inserted in the
constitution of Laxemburg of 1868. 10 the
effect that "the succession to the throne
should be in accordance with the fam
lily statutes of the House Of Nassau"
nobody seems to nave paid any attention
thereto-the general conviction that the
Salic law existed in the grand duchy be-
ing strengthened when, on the death of
the late King William of the Neither
lands, who was likewise Grand Duke Of
Luxembourg, his daughter and successor
to the crown of Holland, Queen Wilhel-
mina, was barred by reason of her sex
from her fathers throne Of Luxembourg.

Duke Adolph of Nassau.

Succession.

When, a few weeks ago, the phenom-
prince of Luxembourg was stricken with
another apoplectic seizure-the second
within the space of few months-the
leading organs of the European press.
recalling that the question of possession
OF the grand duchy brought France and
Germany to the very brink of war in
1867, began tc express their apprehen-
sion as to the problem OF succession
which would arise in the event of the
crown prince succumbing to third fit
without leaving any male issue.
The crown prince is the only son of an
octogenarian and exceedingly infirm
father, who in the ordinary course OF
events must ere long be gathered to his
ancestors, and, as according to all the
standard works of reference, the Salic
order of succession was asserted to pre-
vail in Luxembourg, and the five daugh-
ters OF the crown prince were supposed
in consequence thereof to be barred from
the throne, and as, moreover, the only
brother of the grand duke is morganat-
ically married, much speculation was in
dulged In as to the ultimate fate of the
grand duchy. the belief being manifested
that the Kaiser, who includes among his
titles that of Prince Of Nassau. would
seize It. and that this move on his part
would be followed by a declaration of
war by France.

A MooTED QUESTION.

No vote was taken about the matter.
and the discussion was allowed to drop.
But there is likelihood of its being
renewed by the Separatist party in Hun
gary at an early date, owing to the re-
cent birth of son to the archduke and
the Princess Hohenberg. Indeed the
Separatists in Hungary. as we'll as the
Nationalists in Bohemia, are already
mooting in their organs of the press the
prospects OF the infants succession to
the crowns of St. Wenzelas and of St.
Stephen on the ground, stated above,
that his father, the archduke. had, in
ordinary law. no right to make any re-
nunciation of his sons rights.
One provision OF the family statutes
of the house of Hapsburg with which the
public has become acquainted is that
which requires each archduchess on her
marriage to make a solemn remuneration
of her own rights and precedence in or
der to accept those of the husband of her
choice. Thus, Emperor Francis Joseph's
favorite daughter, Archduchess Valerie
ranks not near her father, but takes her
place low down on the long list of meu.-
bers of the Hapsburg family. having as
sumed at her wedding the rank and
precedence Of her husband, Archduke
Francis Salvador, one of the more re-
mote and distant kinsmen of the present
sovereign.

VLADIMIR BARRED.

: Article LX insists that the marriage
not only of the heir to the throne. but
likewise of the grand duke next in the
line of succession, must be with prin-
cess who has previous to the wedding
adopted the orthodox faith, this being
of a nature to bar from the throne
the present Emperor's uncle. Grand
Duke Vladimir, who ranks next to
the heir apparent. Grand Duke Michael.
in point of proximity to the crown. but
whose wife, a princess of Mecklenburg-
Schwerin, persists in adhering to the
Lutheran rite, and has until now resist
ed all attempts to convert her to the
national church of Russia.
Yet another clause of the family
statutes Of the house of Russia provides
for the loss of the prefix of imperial
highness," as well as of the rank of
grand duke in the fourth generation
of descent from the sovereign. Thus the
children of Grand Duke Boris. who was
in this country a few weeks ago, and
who is grandson of Alexander II. will
have TO be content with the title of
prince" in lieu of grand duke" and
with the predicate of "highness" instead
of imperial higness"

tional legislatures at Vienna and at
Budapest by foes of the government, in
spite of all the endeavors of the presid-
ing officers and of the ministers present
to prevent any discussion thereof. The
last time was in connection with the
solemn act of rsnunciation by the heir
apparent, Archduke Francis Ferdinand,
of all rights of succession to the throne
of Austro- Hungary for the children born
to his morganatic marriage with Coun-
tess Sophie Chotek, now Princess Ho-
henberg.
On that occasion the Hungarian min
listers, in claiming for the archduke the
right to renounce in the name of any
cession to the crown, declared that his
act of renunciation was in conformity
with the family statutes of the house of
Hapsburg. Thereupon several members
of the opposition protested that mas
much as the family statutes of the house
of Hapsburg did not figure in the ma
tional code of the kingdom of Hungary,
and had never been sanctioned by either
of the houses of the national legisla-
ture at Budapest, which were indeed
wholly ignorant of their character, they
could not be regarded as bearing upon
the situation or as exempting tie arch
duke from that provision of the Magyar
code which precludes parents from re-
born or unborn, any rights, prerogatives
or possessions to which their offspring
would become entitled.
