MAY NEVER GET WELL.
Truth About King Edward Said to
Re withheld.


New York, July IA journal LONDON
.cablegram says:
Although official reports from Cowes
are written with the distinct effort to
nut things at their best 1t u evident
that all Is not being told. Yesterday, Tor
instance, IL was said that the King had
taken a short walk on board the royal
yacht, but today II is guardedly admit
ted that his outing on the deck was pass
ed in an invalid chair.
London Is getting to believe that the
truth Is being withheld, and there are not
wanting those who say that the flng VIII
never get well again.
This idea fs;crystallized by high court
officiaI who has seen the King many
times since the operation was performed
and who today said that If the King gets
through the postponed coronation 1t Will
be only with the utmost Drecaution.
''It is quite likely" added this official
that the King will not go to London till
the night before the ceremony. and after
ward will Immediately return to Cowes
The reason for having the coronation so
soon is a grave one. as the King s physi-
clans believe he will never be. so well
again. ~
'The operation, which was far more
aerious and complicated than anyone was
led to believe, revealed diseased condi-
tons involving a large portion OF the in
testinal cavity.
'"The operation removed the immediate
danger and gave a change for rally
which the King wonderfully availed him
self Of But the conditions are still SUCH
that a second operation is only question
of time. The operation will be performed
soon after the coronation. OF the King

WISCONSIN DEMOCRATS.
This Falls Campaign to Be the
Hardest Ever Waged.

New Orleans, July 4-A special to The
Times Democrat from Waukesha, Wis,
says; The Democratic State Central
Committee today. by it's action in setting
the date of the State convention for Sep
tember at Milwaukee, has fired the
opening gun for the Democrats in what
will be the hardest fought campaign ever
waged In Wisconsin. The Democrats are
determined to take advantage of the sit
uation in the Republican party, whose
ranks in the State are hopeiessly divided
by the refusal of the State administra-
ton forces to indorse Senator 6pooner
for reelection regardless of the indorse-
ment by him, in turn of what Is the
''stalwart" branch of the Republican
party regards as an erratio platform. de-
manding, as 1t does, the primary election
laws and sweeping tax reforms.
There are three men proposed for the
nomination for Governor, former Senator
w. r. Villas, National Committeeman Ed
Ward C. We'll, the head of the party in
the State for years past. and Mayor
LCVid 8. Rose of Milwaukee, who has
also been spoken of as promising Vice
Presidential timber. OF the three, May
or Rose seems to be the most promising
candidate, inasmuch as there ID consld-
Ell able doubt of the poyition Of Villas, who
Is mentioned as a candidate for the Sena-
torial nomination against Isaac Stephen

SHORTAGE OF PIG.

of Lack Of Material.
New York, July 24.-Pressure for steel
billets has abated, according to the Iron
Age, and importers are now inclined to
the opinion that the buying OF foreign
billets Is at an end This view OF the
situation In confirmed by offers made the
past week of considerable quantities OF
foreign billets for resale. The billet
situation, while thus shown to be easier
has not led to any special weakness IN
prices. Some contracts have ALREADY
been made for deliveries extending into
next year on the basis Of current prices
Foundry pig iron supply has been cur
tailed by the stoppage Of numerous East
ern furnaces for lack of fuel and BY the
barking of several in the central West
Also unable TO secure enough coke to Keep
them running. The shortage in pig iron
is particularly bad in the East and
numerous foundries are seriously suner-
ing.
The furnaces in the anthracite regions
are not only producing little iron. but
their product Is quite frequently on grade
which will not meet contract REQUIRE
ments. Shipments are coming In Nreeiy
from abroad.
The Southern furnace companies have

RUSH TO MARCOS.
japanese and Americans May Have
Serious Clash.

1GA4800 SA&S4&s
washington July 2A-The japanese
Government has served formal notice on
the State Department to. the possession
claims of Marcos Island, toward which Is
now heading an American expedition un-
der Rosehfil and party. w..
Regarding It al extremely desirable
that no collision occur, the State Depart
ment has taken measures to advise Cap
tain Rosehill that he must offer no re-
sistance IL he should fall in with ia
panese warship which also is heading for
the island.
RosehiiI landed on this island about
thirteen years ago. He put up sign
and deposited a bottle setting forth his
claims to the island, erected hagpole
and hoisted the United States flag. Then
he sailed away from the island, leaving
lis unoccupied, a fact which may yitiate
his title.a HIS bond required by the gu
ano island land laws was filed in the
Treasury Department only within the last
year.
Meanwhile. finding g. deserted island,
some Japanese landed and began to take
away the guano., The Japanese Govern
ment holds that shs.r title ID good. The
Japanese warship carried the message
from this Government to Rosehill advis-
ing him to offer no resistance and as IL
probably will reach Marcos Island, dis
tant only 1000 miles from Yokohama. be-
fore Risehilrs schooner which sailed from
Honolulu. 1000 miles distant, 1t 10 expect
ed that there will be no clash.
Yokohama, July 24--It is officially an
nounced that the Japanese cruiser kas-
agi will convey the diplomatic agent OF
Japan to Marcos Island. The explanation
is that it is the desire Of the Government
to re-assure the Japanese residents and
convince them that the Rosehill claim is
tenable. 1t is asserted here that the isl
and was annexed to Japan in 1895. and
that 1t was discovered by Japanese
subject in 1879.
