Steamers Have No News.

The steamer Teutonic, incoming, and
eight outgoing steamers which sa led
from New York Saturday, are along the
course which the airship is supposed TO
be taking.
The America, IL still afloat, has already
established a record for time In the air
fifty-two hours up to noon today, as
against the previous Zeppelin record of
thirty-seyen hours. The distance record
is still conjectural. the Zeppelin distance
record being $50 miles. Previous records
however, have been based on overland
flights, and in TINS, also, the flight OF

~ ALCUTTA. India, April 15.-Dur-

an audience with his excel

government house. The meeting
was arranged through the aid

call at the government mansion, where

The social mahcinery of the viceregal
court of India is more complicated
than that of the white house The vice
roy, comparatively speaking, is a great
er man than our president. He has
more power than king Edward VII, by
whom he is appointed. and the peoples
he rules are as many in number as the
population of Europe, and of as varied
nationalities. He lives in as much state
as any European monarch, maintaining
a large establishment and going about
in pomp. When he rides out IL is in a
magnificent landau, with gorgeous
coachman and footmen in front and
behind, and with gigantic native SOL
dters as OutriderS and guards. The
soldiers have magnificent horses, and
carry long spears, which flash like sill
yer in the tropical sun
When one goes to the white house
he may call at the offices and send
in his card and possibly see the presi-
dent within a few moments All who
wish to pay their respects TO the vice
roy of India must first announce them

notes of appointment to such persons
as the viceroy is willing to see. From
the list is also made up the invitations
for the dinners, balls, receptions and
other events given by the court. There
is no society anywhere more splendid
than that of Calcutta during the sea-

Edward VII, King by the grace

Great Britain and Ireland, defen-

India, died in Buckingham Palace,
his London home, at II AS o'clock
Friday night. Pneumonia, which
followed bronchitis, is said to
have been the cause of his death.
The physicians have not yet made
a formal statement as to the dis
ease. Edwards only son, George,

the death of his father. His first
act was to notify the Lord Mayor
of London of the death of the
King.
