(CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE.) strong desire to have a war parade, with Lord Kitchener as the central ligure. Such an arrangement would doubtless attract many thousands to London. The metropolis and the country are quite rady to go wild over Kitchener, tut he is likely to endeavor to dodge any public shows. Failing Kitchener. th stand proprietors have to ! rely on the King's first public reappr- , ance, which Is likely to be a drive through the strtets to the national thanksgiving service. That, however, must be some time hence, as n man in his sixty-first year, in spite of his wonderfully speedy recovery from the immediate results of the operation, probably will have to submit to a rather lengthy convalescence. What at lirs.t sight was one of the most pathetic features of the postponement of the coronation, anions all the serious financial embarrassment en every hand, was the utter demoralization of the street "fakers." who had been counting for months pat on a rich harvest. Features of the Strand. Fleet street and the hotel entrances to-day were street urchins of tender years weeping over trays of cheap medals, pins and other out-of-date and Inappropriate souvenirs. Their general wailing, tear-faced pleas were always almel at well-dressed pedestrians. "Only a penny!" "Please buy something!" These appeuH frequently were juccessftil. A noticeable fact was that these "tears" and "grief" amiK th sharp street arab only seem to have developed to-day. The symptom spread rapidly. Among scores of ciev' little plagiarists in other walks of life the same keen disappointment was visible. Twenty of thn cleverest and mon dangerous awiudleru frorxl America and tho con
tinent have been in London for the purpose of fleecing fashionable coronation visitors. Recently a group of five American sharpers entered a well-known West End restaurant and one of thm renewed acquaintance with a gentleman whom he thought he had met years ago. - Later they entered a card game in thr-ir apartments in which the victim ioft ?ZSf His supposed friend also lost heavily, but paid in checks, while the victim contributed cash. He notified the police, hut the gang f.ed. The police learned the entire party had separated into parties, one of which proceeded to Paris, where a wcalthv visitor was buncoed to the extent of Later in the ilciv it was definitely decided that the Prince of Wales will inspect the colonial contingent of troops July 1 on the Horse Guards parade. Tb4 troops will be under command of the Duke of Connaught. Upward of 17) warships are still anchored at Portsmouth, but there his as yet ben no announcement as to whether or not they will be reviewed. Thousands of persons meanwhile are poinc: down to Portsmouth to view the assembling there of the British naval prowess. TITLED AM Ell I CA X WOMEN.
What They Intended to "Wenr nt the Coronation Festivities. LONDON, June IS. Had the coronation occurred American women would have constituted one of the most brilliant features. The Duchess of Marlborough had a new coronet even more magnificent than the big pearl-tipped tiara she has hitherto worn at court. Her unworn acquisition rivaled that of the Duchess of Portland, in which the great Portland diamond, itself worth 12,0), has been reset. Mrs. Arthur Paget, who would have had a seat in the King's box at Westminster Abbey, would have worn a costly emerald and diamond tiara, coliar, pendant and brooches formerly belonging to her mother, Mrs. Paran Stevens. Mrs. Paget' dress was embroidered with diamonds and pearls. Lady Abinger, who was a Miss Magruder, daughter of the late Commodore Magruder, Lr. S. N., and widow of the third Raron AbInger, had her peeress robes embroidered with gold, and, besides her diamond coronet, would have worn a fourrow pearl necklace clasped with a huge sapphire and surrounded with diamonds, once the property of Marie Antoinette. Cora, Lady Strafford, formeily Mrs. Samuel Colgate, of New York, would certainly have made a sensation, as she had a very high diamond tiara, and, instead of a necklace, woidd have, had rubies and pearls draped like nn aiguillctte on her left shoulder. Iady Dufferin. formerly Miss Florence Davis, of New York, intended to wear all the heirlooms of the Dufferin family which she recently inherited. Lady Grey Egerton. who was Miss May Cuyler, daughter of the late Major Wayne Cuyler, U. S. A., was going to dress in white embroidered with sold lilies, with a diamond tiara, a diamond and pearl collar and two necklaces, one of rubies and diamonds and one all diamonds. Lady Deerhurst, stepdaughter of Charles Boiynge, of San Francisco, was to wear beautiful black pearls, a diamond necklace and a diamond tiara. PREMATURE CELEI1HATIONS. Passengers on Steamships Didn't Know Coronation "Wns Off. NEW YORK. Junc 2S.-The Cunard line steamer Lucania, which arrived early today from Liverpool and Queenstown, held festivities on June 26 to celebrate the coronation of King Edward VII, not knowing of his illness. In the forenoon much merriment was indulged in in all quarters of the ship. At noon the ship's crew were mustered, a salute of twenty-one guns was fired and all united in singing "God Save the King." Games, races and athletic competitions filled up the afternoon's entertainment. In a tug of war between teams representing England and America, America won. In the evening the usual concert was held. The next day, June 27, at 0 o'clock in the morning the Lucania got in communication by wireless telegraphy with the French steamer Savole from New York, and learned of the King's illness. The passengers on the steamship Celtic, of the White Star line, also celebrated in miJocenn, not knowing of the postponement. It was just about noon that Captain Lindsay summoned the crew on the forecastle, the whole company of passengers following. "God Save the King" was sung, and afterwards three cheers for the United States was given with a will. A series of games and a dinner had been planned for the remainder of the day, but just then the steamship Ivernla from Boston was sighted. It was seen that the lvernia had run out a string of flag signals which read: "King ill. Festivities postponed." This put an end to the Jay's ei Joymcnt, and,, instead, a prayer was oficred in the main saloon for the monarch's speedy recovery. RECEIVED II V THE Ql'EEN. "Whitelavr nntl 3Irs. Held Spednlly Honored liy Her Mnjesty. LONDON, June 2. Queen Alexandra received Whitelaw Reid, the special ambassador of the United States, and Mrs. Reid at Buckingham Palace this afternoon in farewell audience. Her Majesty received Mr. and Mrs. Reid alone. While the special ambassador does not feel at liberty to make public what passed at the audience, it is understood the Queen received them with great cordiality and emphasized the appreciation of the sympathy and support of the United States in the present crisis, -which has already ben expressed to Mr. Reid by the Prince of Wales and the foreign secretary, the Marquis of Lansdowne. The Qu ?n showed evidence of relief, and, considering the great strain upon her, looked remarkably well. The interview lasted some time and may welt be considered a great compliment to both Mr. and Mrs. Reid and the United States, as tha Queen lias received no one but her own family since the King became ill. The special embassy will now be officially closed, though Mr. and Mrs. Reid will not leave London before July 1. Senator Ilepew ot Optimistic. NEW YORK. June 2S. Senator Depew, who has followed the history of King Edward's case very carefully, does not entertain the most optimistic view of the outcome, cables the London correspondent of the Herald. "If you will notice the bulletins that have been issued," said the senator, "you will see that they have all been worded with, the utmost care. To any one reading between the lines it is apparent that those in charge of the case are not sanguine as to the King's recovery. This convinces me that the royal patient's condition is far more serious than people in general appreciate." James It. Keene would express no opinion on the chances of the King's recovery. "Whatever the result may be." he said, "it will not affect values in America. If the King should die his son. the Prince of Wales, would be proclaimed King within fifteen minutes. The government would go on as usual." IVhitelnvr Uriel's Advices. WASHINGTON, June 2S. A cable message was received at the State Department to-day from Mr. Whiielaw Reid, head of the special embassy to the coronation, givV. ing a most favorable account of the condition of King Edward VII. He said that the physicians attending the Klr.r anticipate hi? rapid recovery. Mr. Reid says among those entirely familiar with the case it is well understood that there is no foundation for alarming reports that the King has cancer or any serious throat or stomach trouble. According to Mr. Reid the strength, nerves and sound blood of the King are all in his favor. A most favorable symptom In his case is that he has been taking solid food. A Frenchinnn's Tribute. PARIS. June 2S. General Do Galliffet. the former minister of war, has written to the Journal Des Debats an extremely sympathetic letter on King Edward, which concludes: "We cannot forget what he did during the Franco-Prussian war In helping our sick and wounded. To him. as to his august mother, we should remain grateful. Moreover, whenever it was a question of good and noble action he, as Prince of Wales, was always powerfully seconded by the most charming and charitable of women, la this domain she reigned long before sh- became Queen Alexandra, the pearl of England." Cholera Spreading In PeUIiiK. TEKING. June 2. One German soldier has died here from cholera and the disease is ffprsadins. The members of the Uiplo-
matlc corps have requested th government to co-operate with the foreign doctors In the enforcement of measures to prevent the disease assuming an epidemic form. GAYNOR AND GREENE AGAIN.
American Fugitives Remanded to Jail Until Independence Day. QUEBEC, June S. The Gaynor-Grccne case was again brought up in the Superior Court, to-day, on writs of habeas corpus issued on June 1 and 21. Mr. Taschereau, counsel for the prisoners, moved for writs of certiorari addressed to Judge Lafontaine, at Montreal, to produce the records and all documents in the case, but Mr. McMaster, of the prosecution, immediately objected after the motion had been argued. Judge Caron remanded the accused back to jail until Friday, July 4, and the remand granted cn Saturday last was continued to that date. Judge Caron remarked that the remand Issued on Saturday did not in any way bind his colleagues, who could not be prevented from giving any orders they wished if applications were made before them by counsel. The remand issued on Saturday last to which the prosecution objected was addressed to Sheriff Langelier, ordering a remand of the prisoners for eight days, "subject to my (Judge Caron's) orders only, and that the sheriff do not leave them out of his caro for any reason whatever."

ED WARDS VILLE. 111., June 2S.-A terrific cloudburst swept the greater portion of Madison county to-day, doing incalculable damage to the crops and washing away bridges and railroad tracks. The Illinois Central east-bound passenger, from Alton to Edwardsville, had just passed Poag when struck by the storm, and was compelled to stop, the track being washed out. The damage to crops cannot be estimated. In the bottoms whole fields of wheat stacks have bi-en swept away.

The heavy rain, on the other hand, was of great value to corn. . Rain and Snow Reported. BLOOMINGTON, 111., June 23. All weather records in central Illinois are being broken this year. Rain has been falling steadily for twenty-four hours, approaching a cloudburst at times. At intervals last night snow fell, while the temperature dropped to 43 degrees. But for the rain there would have been frost. Excess of moisture this summer has given all classes of crops a. serious backset. The oats harvest Is past due, but the heads are blighted by long continued rainfall. Hay also will be light due to lack of sunshine to cure the grass. Corn is hardly far enough advanced to determine the damage, mine the damage. ' Rnln and Gnle nt Chicago. CHICAGO, June 2S.

SURELY A HUGE FAMILY. Figures ns to Height nnd Wright of Carey nnd His i'our Sonw. St. Louis Republic. The citizens of San Jose. Cal.. are proud of the Carey family. They form the tallest group of men in the State, perhaps in a number of States. The combined height of the father and four sons aggregates thirty-one feet, and each of the four I sons weights over two hundred pounds. me iota; weignt or tne live is 1,035 pounds about half a ton. They are all heartv, line-looking men, and as strong as oxen. Patrick William Carey is a gentleman who. twenty-six years aeo, came straight I from Ireland, and is proud of the fact. As a boy ho was a famous jockev, but, as he gays: " 'Twas being too tall at last that privinted me from makin' a very rapid forehune. Shure, I grew too tall to ride at all." For slxtepn yt-ars he lived with his family up in the Black mountains, and then came to San Jose to go into the butcher business. The old gentleman is hale and hearty at eighty yers of age and spends much of his time superintending matters out at the slaughter house, about nve miles from town. Mrs. Amelia Carry, the mother of this family of giant voters, is not a small woman, her height being' five feet nine inches. She has a daughter, a nurse in a San Francisco hospital, who is only of the average height. William Patrick Carey is the oldest son, and also tho tallest of the boys. He is a man of family and has a pleasant home in San Jose. He towers up to a height of six feet six and a half inches. A second look always follows him on the street. Though he weights 220 pounds, his great height does not give the impression of a heavy man. He owns to thirty-nine years. The next in order as to age and height is George J. Carey, who lives at Palo Alto, and is also in the butcher business. He has a little bit of a wife, though he measures six feet four inches. He is thirty-six years of age, and weighs 225 pounds.

The richest. gold and silver strike ever made in the famous Parral district was made to-day in the San Junica property of the Hidalgo Mining Company. At a depth of two hundred feet an independent and unexplored vein was discovered carrying SOW per ton in gold and silver. The shaft was opened by Spaniards years ago. but as the vein only showed two feet of ore, the company had postponed working it until recently. This strike eclipses the famous Palmlllo. wliich produced over $3,0u0,000 in a single year. A Penny Saved. Cleveland Plain Dealer. There is a neat text for a long sermon in the fact that $2u0 was put into a NewYork savings bank in 1S40, and then forgotten, and now amounts to more than 53,0. The principal object lesson In this story, however, is likely to be overlooked. That is. If you want your savings to accumulate to large sums, start them off in the right way and then forget them. There Is no doubt, too. that this story will start up In business a lot of those people who want to show you what a beautiful thing it is to save your pennies, and how fast they accumulate. If Captain Noah, for instance, had redeposlted the skimoleons he laid away for a rainy day and drawn out when the rain commenced, and then had left the stuff to increase in its sure and steady way well, there isn't room on the page to express the sum total those pre-Noachian plunks would have reached if they had been left to their own devices. And only think of the handsome Income improvident old Methuselah would have enjoj-ed from his savings if he had commenced putting a nickel a day in the bank when he was young" and carelees say, at a hundred and fifty, or so! But, really, the mind shrinks from these examples of applied thrift they are quite too appalling. . Mr. und Mrs. Spnrrovr. Longman's Magazine. He is anxious to help with the nest making, and holds forth without ceasing while his lady builds. Occasionally he lends a hand, lie catches sight of a straw, and may be, or a small piece of stick, and it occurs to him that here is the very thing his foolish wife has pought for days and failed to rind. What does not occur to him it--, that he is a garrulous old incompetent, and knows no more about nest building than he docs about the loving of eggs. His wife knows all about him, however, and the straw Is turned out of the nest again as soon as his back is turned. He has probably placed it in some impossible position, and after explaining what a marvelous fellow he is. and what a treasure he has brought up in the way of building material departed, forgetting all about the matter in a moment or two. Even when he sees that straw lying upon the garden path, so conceited is he that he does not recognize it. because he cannot contemplate the possibility of its rejection by the missus. He thinks he has found another treasure. "There," says he, dumping it down by her side as she sits resting, perhaps laying a little eg-, in the semicompleted net; "there's another splendid straw; how Is It you don't come across them? I can find them whenever I like." The Chicago Klite. Roswell Field, in Chicago Post. A visitor from the Kast speaks rather enthusiastically of the "Chicago habit" of sitting on the front porch. This is Southern and Western rather than Chicago. So far as the city is concerned it would seem to depend to a large extent on the residence district. It is our impression that nobody living east of North State street would dare sit on a porch, front or back. Along the Lake Shore drive there is an unwritttn law that any woman caught standing at a window in her rcsider.ee shall be fined one week's social displeasure, while the act of sitting on the porch would mean her social disgrace and total ostracism. This is mainly the rcaon why the drive has so melancholy an aspect and why signs of lifo are rnanffest only In the back yards. How much better it Is to bo lonely and miserable than to be common and vulgar. Police ernennt Killed liy n fl;ro. KANSAS CITY.
