LONDON, June with the cxcep-

Of the United Kingdom Is holiday max
Ing today. In honor OF the conclusion
Of peace In South Africa. The streets
everywhere are thronged with people
who. every now and then. relieve their

hoarse cheering. or by braying penny
trumpets. The tone Of King Edwards

therein OF any note OF exultation,
