The Billings gazette. [volume] (Billings, Mont.) 1896-1919, 1902-08-12

And yet for weeks, even up to three
or four days ago, the people had been
deceived by malicious falsehoods
about the kings condition, to the ef-
feet that he was a physical wreck,
afflicted with incurable ills and that
he could never stand the ordeal Of
crowning. One of the most obvious
sentiments now is anger against those
who sought to mislead in regard to
the kings health.
Archbishop's Breakdown.
The partial breakdown Of the ven
cradle archbishop of Canterbury, who,
instead of assisting, had to be- assist
ed by the king in the performance OF
some of his functions, is also sub
ject of sympathetic comment
The archbishop is in his eight-sec-
ond year and his eyes are dimmed by
old age. He had been a schoolboy
when Victoria was crowned and now,
with his sands nearly run out, he was
called upon to crown her SON. Every
body and King Edward most assured
~ felt sympathy for the aged prelate
and sought as far as possible to ease
him in the important functions which
none but he could perform.
Indeed the archbishop of Canter-
bury is a figure second only to the
king in Importance at the coronation
and his collapse, which at one time
seemed imminent, would have been
deplorable. The kindness of his maj
esty had much to do with carrying
the old prelate through his part of the
ceremonies. Instead of the king need
ing help, he actually helped the trem-
bling hands that placed the crown
on his head.
All these things are known throubh-
out London and England, and they
inspire and strengthen the boundless
loyalty with which the people hold
the king who has come back, as it
We're, from the tomb.
King Edward Delighted.
King Edward. himself, according to
palace accounts, is as happy as the
people. His face was lighted up with
more magnetism, which has helped
to make him liked by all admitted to
his presence. There was no conceal
ment Of his delight with the splendid
greetings from his subjects and, when
he bowed himself on the balcony at
palace with the queen,
his face was radiant with pleasure.
The faces are that some of the mis-
statements in regard to his condition
reached the king durins his illness.
and while he affected to smile at some
of them, there is no doubt he felt them
keenly and felt grateful at being able
to show the evidence of his recovery
and of his possession of a strong con
stitution and unimpaired vitality

Primary receipts for three days thi
week are 1000, 600 bushels, compare,
with 1, $40, 600 bushels for four day
last year. Clearances for three dayl
are 1885, 600 bushels. Wheat has beer
going out at the rate of from 81 I'd
million bushels per week. Exports
from both coasts since July 1st are 80
million bushels more of wheat and 93I
million bushels less of corn Ethan for
the same period last year. The amount
on ocean passage decreased 1880, 900
bushels. Notwithstanding the con-
tinued large clearances it is difficult to
get admissions of the fact that wheat
is being sold for export Wheat i'm
porting countries are consuming an
average Of s million bushels of foreign
wheat per week. At that rate thew
would use 156 million bushels durine
the next A months. According t0
Bromhalls Corn Trade News and the
same authority says: "Wbeat holders
may expect healthful and steady mar
kets unless brilliant crop prospects in
Europe and the United States bring
about complete change Official
reports from India are that there is q
decrease Of IL million bushels in the
wheat area in the Punjab alone Aus
tralian wheat shipments are larger
and Argentine shipments smaller than
were expected. Ocean freight rates
have advanced from to ~ cents per
bushel.
