What Mr.. Perry Says as to
Issuing a Statement.

The strike situation I'm the city today
is practically unchanged. the strikers re-

to arbitration.
II was generally understood that a
statement would be issued by Marsden j.
Perry. explaining his action in rejecting
the arbitration propositions submitted by
committee representing the public at
large as we'll as the striking street rail-
way men. and the course the company
would pursue, now that the supreme
court OF the state has declared the ten

done so up 70 o'clock this afternoon.

The improvement In the kings condition
this morning was most marked. Every
body In Buckingham palace is delighted
and high hopes are entertained that his
convalescence will be much more speedy
even than was expected last night.
At no time has there been any serious
suggestion of the establishment OF
regency. The most that was done was in
the way OF pure speculation. a suggestion
that the Prince of Wales might act for
his father as King Edward (then Prince
of wales) frequently did for Queen Vic
toria In former days. and particularly
during her last illness. but without his
having formally been appointed regent.
