The whole machinery of the state was emPloyed Wednesday in installing the new sovereign and acclaiming him as king. No one now lives who took part or was present at these functions when they were last performed sixty-three years ago. Therefore the actors today were guided only by tradition. The scene as the new king was sworn m was solemnly impressive. It was impossible to banish the grief caused by the loss of the well-beloved queen.st.ll unburied, and the melancholy thought obtruded itself on many minds that it was unreasonable to believe that the gray-haired man before them would preside for many years over the destinies of the vast empire. At 4:20 p. m. the artillery began firing salutes In St. James' park to signalize King Edward's accession to the throne. In raw, damp weather, under a dis

mal sky, Edward VII. was Thursday morning proclaimed King to the citizens of London. Before daylight troops marched from their quarters ia and about the capital to take their stations along the route to be followed by the heralds procession. In addition, there were many thousand policemen along the line of march. Child ljtlior in llliiinl. The annual report of Louis Arling ton, chief inspector of factories in Illinois, .shows that there are 14.3ÖC children employed in the factories in the state and the evil is Increasing, as in 1S97 the number was but 9.259. Of 25,714 children In scnool at 11 years of age in Chicago, he shows from the school records there that but 6.030 of them remained in school at 16. In Cnicago alone C.225 boys and 4,609 girls under 16 years are employed in factories. Outside of Chicago glass factories are the principal employers of children; in Chicago the garment, metal and woodworking industries and big stores employ child labor by the hundreds. Inspector Arrington says child labor ruins wages and that parents are often out of work and their children employed. May lla Two Fnrainpinent. Among Cleveland members of the G. A. R. it is said there will probably be two national encampments next fall. Denver people are very bitter toward National Commander Rassieur for the part he took in favoring Cleveland instead of Denver. The Denver committee has announced that it will organize an encampment in the West. It has the money raised, and four railroads running into Denver have announced a cent-a-mile from Chicago to Denver for September. The executive committee of the G. A. R. will visit this city soon to establish a site for the encampment and make preliminary arrangements. I Insane from Smaltp-x. John Harnett, a tailor of Thomaston, Canada, is a raving maniac at Michigan City, Ind., as a result of smallpox, supposed to have been contracted In Chicago a week ago. His death is expected. Fifteen persons have been exposed, three of whom are quarantined in the house with Harnett, including a Miss Raker, who went from Chicago a fe wdays ago to work for Harnett. Famine In Frel-ht Cars. The famine in freight cars has reached a crisis in the Pittsburg district and the situation has become so bad at the Homestead mills of the Carnegie Steel company that it is claimed a shut-down will be necessary if some relief is not given soon. The company has been compelled to pile orders upon orders until 3,000 tons of plates now congest the mill yards. The freight agents of the local yards say that they are getting as fast as they can.

Creeks on the Warpath in the Territory. , ORGANIZE A GOVERNMENT. 1 Snake ltamln Klect Officer and Adopt a Code of Laws Troop Are Kuthed to the Seen, of the Trouble Whippings Administered to Yt ditto. The Creek uprising in Indian territory is growing to dangerous proportions. Marshal Bennett at Muskogee received a telegram from Dristow, 1. T., announcing that GOO armed Creeks, stationed two miles from there, wore preparing to attack the town, and pleading for protection from the marshal. Soldiers were hurried from Fort Reno to the scene of trouble. Indian Agent Shoonfelt asked for more help, as it was found that one company of cavalry could not handle the situation, for the Indians divided up into bands of a hundred. The Snake band was within three miles of Bristow when last reported, and had whipped two white men. Many are fearful for the safety of the party of appraisers, headed by Representative Hackbust of Leavenworth, Kan., who are in the Wetumpka district. Nothing has been heard from them for two days. United States Marshal Bennett of the northern district of the Indian territory has issued, through former Chief Mcintosh, the following proclamation: "I am indeed sorry to learn that the so-called Snake bands have continued to organize a so-called government and to elect officers and adopt a code or laws, and are endeavoring to now enforce such laws. I say I am sorry to learn this, because the?e misguided people are thus getting themselves into open rebellion against the constituted authorities, and are thereby themselves violating the laws of this country. These peoi le the members of the socalled Snake band, have becom? violators of the laws, and, whil justice may be sometimes slow to get in motion, there is no sort of question that every one concerned with the tSnakibnnd. whether as principal chief, so called, or as light horseman, judpre, or otherwise as an aider and ab ttor in the outrages which they have committed, will be brought to justice and required to answer in the courts for their offenses and crimes. "Fvery person, whether citizen 'Indian' or non-citizen, has the legal right to resist this band in attempts to arrest or to In any way interfere with such person in the pursuit of his lawful business, and this resistance, if necessary, may go so far as to take the lives of these men when such person is attacked. Troops have been called for. and it is with a desire to stve these misguided people from this f te that some more determined action has not been taken ere this. But the time has now come when force will be us d against force, and the warrants I now have, and may receive, for members or this band will be served, no matter what the cost to them." Crazy Snake, Creek chief, captured by a marshal. Indians refused parley with Major Little. Reds buned ranch in Oklahoma. Kenonha Iturien Soldier Son.
