OF QUEEN WlLHELMlNA
TAKES A TURN FOR 81
-, ~ THE WORSE.
Secrecy is MAINTAINED
Consultation Of Her Majesty's Doctors
Held but No Information Is Given
: Out-RoyaI Patient Is So Weak That

She Has Been Unable to Take Anv

Physicians in Constant Attendance.
Consultation Of Her Majesty,

= The Hague, May 7:---Advices re-
celved here from Castle Loo dated 1
a.. M, declare that Queen Wilhelmina,s
condition again excites grave anxiety.
Another consultation of the queens
doctors was held at II O'Clock. The
result OF this consultation is not
known. Extreme secrecy is main.
tanned as to the contents of the te1e.
grams dispatched from Loo palace
This and other measures are believed
TO indicate that the condition of her
majesty is, much graver than appears
from the official bulletins. It is said
the queen is so weak that she has
been unable to take any nourishment
since last Saturday.
DR.. Roessingh never leaves her
majestys bedside except for a brief
and much needed rest, when he is al.
ways replaced by Dr. Pot. After the
consultation Professor Rosensteln was
summoned to the palace. He was con.
suited before the operation of last
sunday. A special government wire
mas been. established between Loo
palace and The Hague, and DR.. Kuyp-
er, the Dutch premier, is informed
every half hour of the progress of the
royal patient.
The queen mother and the prince
consort remain continually at her mai.
esty's bedside. DR.. Roessingh very
carefully dictates whatever news con-
corning Queen Wilhelminas condition
is issued from the palace, and he de-
clnes to say anything further concern
ing his patient. It is understood that
although the official bulletins repre-.
sent the queens temperature as nor
NAL, it invariably rises towards mid
night, and that never for a moment
since last Saturday has there been a
cessation of anxiety.

GOES BEYOND THE LAW.
Second Class Privileges Ordered Re
stored to Certain Publications.

Second Glass Privileges Ordered Re.
stored to Certain Publications.
Washington, May 7.-Justice A. G.
bradley, IN the supreme court of the
District of Columbia, rendered de-
cision in the Injunction case brought
by R. w. Haynes and Duane E. Fox,
as counsel, against Postmaster Gen.
eral Henry S. Payne. The decision
was rendered on the demurrer filed
by the postmaster general to the COM
plainant's bill for an Injunction to
prevent the postmaster general from
charging the third class rate instead of
the second class rate on the complain.
ants publication known as the Pocket
List OF Railroad Officials. This was
the first injunction brought to deter.
mine the power of the postmaster gen
eral to charge the higher rate under
a department regulation promulgated
on July II, 1901. Under this amended
regulation the postmaster general has
excluded from the second class rate
a very large number of publications,
several of which cases are now pend
Ing in the supreme court of the Dis
trict. Justice Bradley also decided
two mandamus cases involving The
Official Railway Guide and Official
List.
The purport of Justice Bradley's
decision is that the regulation promul-
gated by the postmaster general goes
beyond the law, and is practically an
amendment of tie law, which the post
master general has no power to make.
In the mandamus cases the justice
ordered writs to issue restoring the
second class privilege to the publica-
lions involved and in the Injunction
cases the justice continued the in
junction preventing the postmaster
general from refusing to carry The
Pocket List at the lower rate of post
age.

ST. PAUL. CITY ELECTION.
Democrats Win Sweeping Victory
Over Republicans,

Oen0eTdtS WIN a sweeping victory
Over Republicans.
st. Paul, May 1.-THE returns on the
head of the municipal ticket show
Mayor Smith reelected by a plurality
of 1000, and from partial returns on
the remainder of the ticket the Demo
cratic city and county committee claim
the election of the entire city ticket
including the judges of the municipal
court.
The same returns show the election
of Democratic assembly and the elec-
ton of all the Democratic aldermen
with the possible exception of Alder
man Bantz of the Eighth ward, who is
in doubt. This gives the Democrats
at least seven and probably eight
members of the board of aldermen, the
absolute control of the city govern
ment and the selection of the city
clerk and corporation attorney.

RESTORE FORMER CHARGES.
Freight Rates on Dressed Beef and
Live Stock to Be Advanced,

Live DUCK 10 BE ADVANCED.
Chicago, May 7.-Freight rates on
dressed beef and on live beeves from
Missouri river points are to be re-
stored after July 1 to what they were
prior to June 80, 1901. This will mean
an advance on each class of freight of
about cents. The meeting of the ex-
ecutive officers of the Western roads
had the matter under consideration
and the result was the agreement to
restore former charges.
The trouble over the rates on beef
from the Missouri river to Chicago
and the seaboard has been one of
long standing. The restoration will
affect the live stock shipped to the
Chicago yards from "the ranges west
OF the river and also the products of
the packing houses situated on the

ing of the Rochambean statue if he so
desires.

PHILIPPINE SITUATION DEBATED
AT LENGTH IN THE
= SENATE.
STARTED ! BY BEVER1DGE
Indiana Senator Sharply Rebukes the
Opposition for Telling Only One
Side of the story-Mr. Turner Of
Washington scathineIy Denounces
General Smith as Monster in
Human Form


Washington, May 7.-For almost
four hours a fierce discussion of the
Philippine situation ragged in the SEN
ate 1t was started by Mr.. Beverage
OF Indiana, who made some sharp stric-
lures on the members of the opposi.
ton, because, he said, they persisted
in telling in their speeches only one
side of the story. Whilephe admitted
that some outrages had been commit.
ted by American soldiers in the Philip
pines, it was true, too, that unparal-
leled kindness had been shown by the
American troops to the Filipino pris-
oners and Filipino wounded. Food
and medicine, he said, had been shared
with them, and they had been succored
on the battlefield and cared for ten
derby in the hospitals.
MIR. Carmack and Mr.. Rawlins warm
~ resented any imputation of unfair
ness. Mr.. Rawlins declared that no
partisan spirit ever had actuated the
opponents of the present Philippine
policy, but that they were moved only
by patriotism and love of country.
Mr.. Turner of Washington deliv-
cred scathing criticism of the meth
DDS practiced by the military authori.
ties in the Philippines, dwelling par.
ticularly upon the alleged order of
General Smith, whom he denounced as
a monster in human form. He urged
the Philippine committee to turn all
the light possible on the Philippine
question to the end that the people
might be fully informed on the situa.
ton.
Mr.. Hoar of Massachusetts briefly
defended the action of the Philippine
committee, saying that already it had
furnished much valuable information.
He urged that the committee, in all
justice should call some prominent
Filipinos to testify in their own behalf.
