Banker Henry Clews takes hope ful view of the situation when he says that General trade continues to show great activity. The Iaboring classes are enjoying unusual prosperity, and their consequent increased expendi- lures naturally tend to proiong the onward movement. The west is still undergoing period of great develop ment. Little of the conservatism so marked in eastern financial circles can be found in the west. Speculation there is going along unchecked. and western optimism is ill delightful con trast to the undisguised caution prac- ticed in New York bank parlors, where the consequences of stringency and the vast multiplication of securi- ties during the last five years are the most readily appreciated. But even in the interior there are signs of a halt. The iron trade, though well sold ahead, is less pressed with orders than year ago. Prices have been shaded and kept down. perhaps to discourage new competition, and the premiums paid for prompt delivery have disappeared. Railroad earnings show large gross returns, but the gains are less pronounced and increas- ed expenses are manifest in smaller net returns. The effect of advancing rates is yet to be seen. The coal sftu- ation is proving an embarrassing feat ure in the situation; not only i'll the scarcity of an article of prime neces- sity, but also i'll the enhanced cost of manufacturing which it imposes. Sil yer is selling at low record prices throwing an unsettling clement into trade with silver-using countries and checking our exports of cotton goods to point that will force export mills to turn their looms on products fol the home market, unless some other outlet is forthcoming- Foreign ex change has ruled firm and moderate gold shipments were again made tt South America on London account, q: in the previous week.

A magazine writer in speaking of the recent report of the secretary of war says that it is document of un- usual interest, it leads us to repeat the suggestion which we have hereto fore made. that official documents of this description be sold through the postofiice authorities at nominal price. Such policy would make it easy for those who want them to get them, and would prevent the waste consequent upon free distribution of them to those who do not want them. The experiment. is at least worth a trial. The fact that peace is estab- lished in the Philippines upon an ap- parently firm basis is demonstrated by the two facts that the army in the Philippines is reduced to 13,4S0 men, and that military government has ceased and the military are subject as in the United States, to civil author ities, who may call on the army for maintenance of law and order. Incidentally the secretary re- fers to the charges of inhumanity brought against the army by calling attention to the fact that searching investigation by the. senate committee lasting through five months brought to light comparatively few cases of such inhumanity, and by the testimony of Judge Taft ''that there never was q war conducted. whether against in- ferior races or not, which there was more compassion and more restraint and generosity, assuming that there was war at all, than there have been in the Philippine islands,"

: KINGS OAK.
Planted in New York in 1860, Doomed
 to Speedy Death.

Planted in New York in 1860, Doomed
 to Speedy Death.
 The English oak which was planted in Central park more than 10 years ago by King Edward VII, Prince of Wales, is dying and will probably have to- be cut down in "a short time. as all ef- forts to preserve it have been una vailing. The tree has been dying for some time but attention has now been called to it's condition by the illness of him who planted it. The tree is on the western border of the mall near the English statue, and liar it is a mag niflcent elm which was planted at the same time by the prince. The elm is in fine condition.
 When the Prince of Wales visited this country in 1860 Controller An drew H. Green invited the youthful visitor to plant two trees in the park. the invitation was accepted and an English oak and an American elm were selected as the, trees. The cere- mony took place on October 12, in the presence of a large crowd. Mayor Fernando Wood and President Blatch- ford of the park board were present. After the saplings had been placed i'll the holes prepared for them the Prince of Wales shoveled in some of the soil. After the ceremony the prince and his retinue made a tour of the park and then visited the home of Mayor Wood.
 The oak sapling was then about three inches ill diameter. The trunk is now about two feet thick. It is .bifurcated four feet from the ground and is about forty feet high. It is gnarled and not graceful. The elm. on the contrary. is q fine tree. about 100 feet high, with spreading branches. and is sound and healthy. The gardeners say that the elm has crowded the oak and retarded its growth by throw ing out it's roots in such way that the oak cannot get proper nourishment. The park authorities have done all they can to stimulate the dying tree. but they say it is doomed 10 a speedy death.-New York Sun.

RECOVERY is VERY RAPID
Pageant Through the Streets and the
Ceremony at Westminster Abbey
Will Be Much curtalled From
the Original Plan.


London, July 7.-At 10 o'clock this morn
ing the following bulletin on King Ed
wards condition was posted at Bucking-
ham Palace:
The King had nine hours natural
sleep and his progress continues to be
uninterrupted. The wound is discharglng
freely and is less painful to dress"
King Edward will be crowned between
August Il and Is. His recovery has been
SO rapid and satisfactory that the above
decision was arrived at today. No official
announcement of the fact has yet been
made
The pageant through the streets and
the ceremony at Westminster Abbey will
be much curtailed from the original plan.
King Edward passed a favorable day
and the verbal report given out tonight
was that his majesty is still doing well.
The use by the Prince Of Wales of the
word recovery when he referred TO
the Kings progress at the Inauguration
of the Raphael Nurses Home of Guys
Hospital this afternoon Is regarded in
many quarters as indicating that the
royal family considers the Kings case
most hopeful.
