rHE CORONATION OF EDWARD.

All of those evil prophecies to the
effect that Edward VII would come
to the throne but never be crowned,
on which some Englishmen laid wag-
ers, were exploded yesterday when the
royal diadem was placed on the brow
of the King by the Archbishop of Can
torbury in Westminster. The coro-
nation. an event of world-interest, was
without marring incident. The King
was strong enough to go through the
ceremonies without fatigue, the wealth
er was good, and the people intensely
loyal. There was no attempt at such
pomp and circumstance as would have
characterized the coronation had it
been held in June. the date originally
selected; nevertheless it was a mag
nificent pageant and a most signifi-
cant ceremony, and it was carried out
with that dignity and decorum char
acteristic OF the great people over
whom Edward reigns.
At home and abroad, as King and
Emperor, Edward reigns over the
greatest British Empire that has ever
existed. 1t is far bigger and stronger
than it was when his honored mother,
Victoria, assembled the throne. When
her majesty was crowned the popula-
ton of the British Isles was but about
24,000000, and there were only some
100000 inhabitants in the British col
onies. Now there are 40 900, 900 Britons
in the home population. and probably
1900, 600 in the purely British colonies.
In addition to these subjects of the
King are TO be numbered the millions
Of people of India and the islands of
the sea over which the Union Jack
floats. 1t has been estimated that the
sovereignty of King Edward extends
over nearly one-fourth of the earth's
habitable surface, while about one
fourth of the earth's population ac-
knowledges allegiance to him. 1t is
easy to see, in the light of these stu
pendous facts, that yesterdays event
in London was of world wide interest
and Importance.
AS to the personality of the King it
is scarcely necessary to speak He
has been before the public all his life,
and is no doubt the best known man
in the world. Since coming to the
throne he has demonstrated that he
possesses a broader mind and a great
er capacity for work than had here
tofore been supposed. He has shown
himself to be man of ideas and of
courage. With his people he is popu-
lar, and he has a great affection for
them. 1t win be the sincere wish of
the civilized world that his reign may
be long. wise and prosperous.

The cowardly attack which was
high class restaurant at Atlantic
City on last Wednesday night by three
trust magnates of Philadelphia indi-.
Gates the spirit which dominates trusts
and the hostility which trusts have to
all who undertake to control them On
most occasions no. doubt the three men
in question conduct themselves as gen
tlemen, but so bitter is their feeling
towards anybody who criticises or in
terferes with trusts that when they
were in the presence of the Attorney
General, who has begun two suits
against trusts, they lost control Of
themselves and acted like toughs and
DULLES. The fact that the Attorney
General had ladies with him did not
restrain them. They began their at
tack with epithets, curses and foul
language and ended it with an assault,
one of them striking the Attorney
General a blow that nearly took him
off his feet. The whole country would
have rejoiced if the three men had
been disgraced by being locked up and
severely punished.
The fact that they We're under the
influence of wine was no excuse for
their conduct. 1t is probable that if
they had been entirely sober they
would not have given expression to
their hostility, but the hostility would
have existed. And it is probable that
trust promoters. trust magnates and
all who are getting rich out of trusts
entertain feelings of extreme bitter
ness against all who in any way inter-
fere with their plans and purposes.
/ When the President ordered suit be-
gun against the Northern Securities
Company 1t is said that a member Of
the banking firm of ]. P. Morgan &
Co. rushed off to Washington at once

he was threatened with defeat for a
denomination, and 1t may be that bull
doing tactics were employed to in
duce him to withdraw the suit.
1t is an interesting condition of af-
fairs that the Attorney General of a
Republican administration is assaulted
with words and blows in the restau-
rant of an aristoeratic hotel, in the
presence of ladies. by men who are I'M
derstood to be Republicans and who
are millionaires, because he is enforc-
ing the law against trusts. If this is
the feeling of those interested in trusts
against those whose duty it is to en-
force the antitrust law we may rea-
sonably expect that the people inter-
ested in trusts will start party of
their own, unless they succeed
in getting assurances from the
Republican party OF better protec-
ton for their interests. They
think they are above the law While
insisting that others shall be made to
hey the law they want TO ignore the
law that interferes with their plans for
robbing the people. They viii have to
be taught a lesson.

Had Discharged His Duty,

AS an instance of President Hadley's
aptness in meeting every situation or
replying to every pertinent or imperti-
nent question, the following story is
told, says the New York Times:
At reception given for him by an
old friend some 500 miles from New
Haven. one individual with a better
memory than tact asked him what he
thought of the recent baseball game.
AS Yale had met with disastrous de-
Feat, the subject might be called I'M
pleasant. Without hesitation President
Hadley said:
There was a boy living in a village
whose uncle died. The next day a man
driving along the road was surprised
to find the boy working in a field.
Thinking this did not show proper re-
spect to the dead uncle. he called the
lad to him and said: Johnny. didn't
you know your uncle was dead?'
Johnny slowly approached and
drawled out:
Yes, 1 know It'll have cried.'"

At fashionable reception a few
nights ago, says writer in the Liver
pool Post, 1 heard an amusing little
duologue entitled Choosing a Career"
performed by Lady Mary Sackville
and Mr.. Cotsford Dick, who was also
the author of it. 1t was a. satire on
the various professions, which was
highly enjoyed by the audience.
The gentleman's fiancee suggests diff
ferent professions for him to adopt.
Literature?" she suggests.
That requires brains, and one must
be a log-roller. I am not a log-roller.
and have no brains'
well, the church then? You don't
require brains for that"
Wretchedly underpaid" he rejoins;
and It's impossible to bring up eight
children on nothing a year"
Then the army?" she asks. THAT
doesn't require brains either"
Not for me, thanks. 1t wants re-
forming. and I haven't got the energy
for reforming character"

1.-THE navy! And 1 about to be mar
ried! oh. dear no. A naval man only
sees his wife about once every five

meals any time and anywhere. 3"
THE bar? That's a noble profess
sion"
Yes, I should shine at that; but
then no one makes anything at the
bar until one is to old to enjoy it or
too busy to spend it."
Then she cried in despair, "well.
what do you propose?"
can't you guess? 1t is something
requiring neither brains, work. nor
anything else--the stage. A play only
succeeds through the amount of the
upholstery on the stage, and the num-
Der of clothes the men put on and the
women take off. Some one will take
theater for me- and make me actor
manager. That's the profession for
one, after ALL"

CURRENT COMMENT,

The Hartford Comm Times Dem
says: 1T is believed in Washington
that behind the proposed Cuban loan
there is a scheme of the American
capitalists who opposed reciprocity to
fasten their grip on the island by buy
ing up the entire issue of bonds"
The Chattanooga Times (Dem) says:
The Democrats of the West Virginia
First congressional district voted down
the resolution to reaffirm the Kansas
City platform by a vote of 1876 to SO.
The idea prevailing among the Demo-
Gratis all over the country now, on ma
tional issues, is harmony, and that
means to shelve all questions that can
or will cause discord."
The Philadelphia Record Dem. }
says: with one huge Trust monopo-
lizing the American market for Ha-
vana cigars, and another newcomer
absorbing the stogie and cheroot end
of the business, lovers of the Indian
weed will have to keep strictly in the
middle of the road to get around the
octopus. They have still at their COM
mand more than $4,000 manufacturers
of all sorts and conditions of domestic
cigars-a good army for even a pow
erful Trust to war against perpet-
ually."

(Dem) says: IF President Estrada

which the Senate proposes TO authorize
on grain, provisions and lumber i'm

RAILWAY SITUATION IN THE SOUTH


1t is generally agreed that the Louis
vile and Nashville Railway has pass
ed TO the control of ]. P. Morgan &
Co, the control having been purchased
from John w. Gates at $3.50 per share.
That does not mean of course that the
Southern have been merged, but what
has taken place amounts almost TO a
merger. There will be no competition
between them as long as the two prop
critics are controlled by J. P, Morgan
&c Co. Doubtless at some future time
the two properties will be placed under
one management, but in view of the
hostility to trusts, and combinations to
prevent competition, it is probable that
nothing will be done in that direction
at present.
Now that the Louisville and Nash
vile has actually passed into the con-
troll of the owners of the Southern will
Nashville ask that the Legislature of
Tennessee be convened for the pur-
pose of preventing any closer relation
between the two systems? When it was
first announced that the Southern had
acquired control of the Louisville and
Nashville there was great excitement
in Nashville, and threats were made
as to what the Legislature would do
No doubt the merchants of that city
will do whatever they think will be for
the welfare of their city
Is the control of the Louisville and
Nashville by J. P. Morgan & Co. a
step in the direction of making one
vast system of all of the principal
railways of the South? A day or two
ago 1t was rumored that the ST. Louis
and San Francisco Railway had ac-
quired control of the Central of Geor-
gia, and there is a belief on the part
of many, notwithstanding the denial Of
j. P. Morgan & Co., that the rumor
was we'll founded. In connection with
this rumor there was another that the
deal between the st. Louis and San
Francisco and the Central of Georgia
was only a part of a much greater
railway consolidation, which included
the principal railways of the South
and an important railway of the
West
If the first rumor has any foundation
it is probable that the latter has, be-
cause it is not reasonable to suppose
that j. P. Morgan & Co. or the South
ern would yield control of the Central
of Georgia. and thus admit possible
competition in it's territory unless in
some way the railroad situation in the
South was to be controlled and compe-
tition, which really means rate cut
ting, prevented. 1t is pretty safe to as
sumo therefore that the st. Louis and
San Francisco will not get control OF
the Central of Georgia unless there is
much greater consolidation of rail-
road properties than are included in
these two systems.
