BRTTATN,S ENORMOUS IMPORTS.
That Nation Still the Leading Market
 for the World.

That Nation Still the Leading Market
 for the World.
 Washington, Aug 10.-A report on the agricultural imports of Great Britain for 1896-1900 inclusive, with significant review of the trade conditions and pos- abilities between the United States and the United Kingdom, has been compiled by Frank H. Hitchcock, chief of the division of foreign markets. in the de- partment of agriculture. The United Kingdom is the principal market for the surplus agricultural produce of ex- porting countries. The report says that the products of agriculture sent to that market from all sources in 1900 reached the enormous value of $1,57S, ,000. .000, forming 62 per cent. of the import trade of Great Britain and Ireland.
 During the five years mentioned the annual average value of the imports into the United Kingdom was $2, 3OS, ,174,- Al, of which $1,45S,921, ,776, or 63 per cent, were agricultural, and $849, ,252 665, or 37 per cent. non agricultural.
 To this extraordinary import trade in agricultural produce the United States was the principal contributor, furnish ing about B per cent, or nearly one third of the supply. About 4S per cent. came from foreign countries other than the United States. The several posses sions and dependencies of the United Kingdom throughout the world together contributed about "A per cent.

PRES. MITCHELL HOPEFUL
THE FOURTEENTH WEEK OF
 STRIKE OPENS TO-DAY.
Contributions to the Relief Fund Arr irving From Many Quarters Dissatis- faction Disappearing-$99,O ,O00 Ex- pected from BrOOtherhOod of Train men Within the Next Ten Days.

Wilkesbarre, Pa., Aug. 10.-The four teenth week of the anthracite miners strike begins tomorrow. President Mitchell is authority for the statement, made to-day, that the strikers are in good shape. Contributions to the relief fund are coming in from many quarters now and the dissatisfaction which was first evinced over the distribution has now disappeared and the strikers have settled down to what thfey believe is going to be a much longer siege than was first anticipated.
 A $20,000 contribution from the Broth erhood of Railway Trainmen is expect ed by the strikers within the next ten days. Other railway brotherhoods are expected to follow suit. While the strike leaders are inclined to throw cold water on all reports that an attempt may be made to resume mining at an early day in the Wyoming region, it would not be at all surprising should one or two of the mines in this section be started up this week. The same story has been told for weeks past, but there is a well authenticated report in circulation tonight that the Lehigh and Wilkesbarre Coal company may start up work at its Wananie colliery some day this, week.
 general review of the whole strike region shows that unless the operators can break the ranks of the strikers by starting up a colliery here and there the men will be inclined to remain out for some time yet. The amount of re- lief to be distributed will not satisfy all but the miners seem to be willing to make some sacrifices in that direction in the hope that eventually they will win.

for seven years after his election to the senate. Senator McAIillan's success in politics, as well as in business, can be largely accredited to his wonderful ex- ecutive ability. He was man of com paratively small personal acquaintance throughout the state, but he picked hia party lieutenants with rare judgment. He was no orator and seldom spoke be- fore an audience. His life was clean and his character spotless. His word was sacred. An unqualified promise once given was never broken. 4 quail fled promise was never changed from the original qualifications. The late Governor H. S. Pingree opposed Senator McMillan strongly during the last years of his (Pingree's) career in state pol itics.

KING BORE STRAIN WELL
EXPERIENCED BY LITTLE RI-
 TIGUE DURING CORONATION.

Had a Good NIght-Eis Condition in Every Way Satisfactory and No Further Bulletin wiII be Issued King and Queen Attended Divine Service Yesterday-King signaiizes His Coronation in Memorable Manner by Giving Osborn House to the Na- tion-Address to the People
 London, Aug. 10.-The following bulle- tin concerning the kings condition was issued to-day:
 His majesty bore the strain of the coronation ceremony perfectly we'll and experienced but little fatigue The king had a good night, and his condition is in every way satisfactory. No further bulletin will be issued.
 (signed) 'Treves,
 ''Laking."
 King Edward and Queen Alexandra and the royal guests at Buckingham palace attended divine service in the chapel royal at St. James palace this morning At the close of the service the national anthem was sung. Their majesties were loudly cheered by the crowds on the streets as they drove back to Buckingham palace.
 The king has signalized his coronation in memorable manner by the magnifi- cent gift to the nation of Osborn house, one of the favorite residences of the late Queen Victoria.
 The gift is made in the following mes sage to his people, addressed to Prime Minister Balfour. For reasons appar- ent in the document itself his majesty makes his intention public:
 Buckingham Palace,
 Coronation Day, 1902. "Under the will of the kings much beloved mother the Osborn House es- tate is, as MT. Balfour is aware, the private estate of the sovereign. Hav- ing to spend a considerable part of the year in the capital of this kingdom and in it's neighborhood, at Windsor and having also strong home ties in the county of Norfolk, which have existed for nearly forty years, the king feels that he will be unable to make adequate use of Osborn House as a royal resi- dence, and he accordingly has determin- . ed to offer the property in the Isle of ' Wight as gift to the nation. As Os- born House is sacred to the memory of the late queen it is the kings wish that, with the exception of those apartments which were in the personal occupation of her late majesty, his people shall al- ways have access to the house which must always be associated with her be- loved name. As regards the rest of the building, the king hopes it may be de- voted to national interests and convert ed into a convalescent home for officers of the navy and army whose health has been impaired in rendering service to their country.
 "If. in order to give full legal effect to the kings wishes, it is found that application to parliament is necessary. the king trusts that MT. Balfour will see that the necessary steps are in due course. taken"
 Tomorrow (Monday) will be celebrat- ed throughout the nation as day of thanksgiving for the kings recovery.
