Perhaps the queen who has the most company with her in the grave is Mary Stuart; for the vault which received her body when it was removed from Peter- borough cathedral to Westminster abbey afterward served for the inter- ment of her descendants and was re-I ported full when last inspected. Of sovereign groups, Elizabeth Tudor and her sister Mary meet together with- in. a. very limited Space. Though it can- not be truthfully said that they were loving and pleasant in their lives, yet dead they are not divided. In another compartment beneath the abbey floor repose. Charles II., William III. and Mary 11., Queen Anne and Prince George of Denmark—uncle, nieces and neph- ews—in—law. - Probably the oddest combination is one‘whicli must have been planned by J amers- I. before his death, so that peo ple who might seek 'him afterward should not find him too easily. Instead of being properly cntombed with his queen, Anne of Denmark, he preferred to be stowed away with Henry VII. and Elizabeth of York, and this arrange- ment must have been carried out pri- vately and the record withheld from the abbey annals. On the Whole, English sovereigns have been fairly indifferent to family tombs and memorials, neither troubling a-bo ut- their own nor those of their prede- cessors or relatives. Henry VII. began building a. fine chapel as a mausoleum and James I. had a. sentimental taste for erecting- monuments over his kindred, which tends to redeem his general character from utter odiousness, but neither mon- arch can be named in the same breath with Queen Victoria as a. customer for obituary sculpture and masonry—N. Y. Mercury. More Bulls. One one occasion Sir GeorgeCamp— bell had been calling attention in the house of commons to some abuse in In- I dian administration, and proceeded to observe that he had further revelations to make concerning other scandals, in comparison with which this one was a. “mere flea bite in the ocean.” Another time, when speaking about military nf—l fairs in India, he declared that “the pale face of the British soldier was the back- bone of our Indian army.” I heard John Mill tell this to amuse my brothers some 70 years ago.

GOVERNMENT one? REPORT. It Had Little Effect on Wheat, but Sent Cotton Down With a Thad—The At- tack on Stocks—mscellaneous Industries —- Failures. NEW YORK, June 13.—-‘R.' G. Dun &. Co. ’5 weekly review of trade says: Speculative reaction has not the least changed the“ business outlook. The ficti- tious prices made for wheat and cotton meant no good except for individuals, and the change to prices more nearly in accord with actual relations of demand and sup- ply only conforms to conditions which have been well known for months. There are bankers who have risked money on carrying wheat or cotton and are sorry, but the legitimate business of the country has notsuflered. The attack on stocks on Wednesday was so plainly artificial that its influence passed with the day, and neither in foreign relations nor in domes- tic business was there anything to justify alarm. The government report as to wheat indi- cated a much smaller yield than anybody really expects, but that has become so much the rule that the report had no real influence, and the principal effect was the serious depression caused by large sales .~ in anticipation of the report, which seemed to be thoroughly known in advance to some speculators. While Atlantic" exports for the week were 1,588,158 bushels, ,flour included, against only 809,539 last year, the comparison is obviously exceptional and not significant, while the receipts at western ports of 2, 429,345 bushels against 1,386,230 last year show persistency of conditions which have governed the move- ment during the whole year. While other crop reports differ widely from those of the department all agree in indicating a liberal yield compared with that of last year, which all now know was quite large enough. The government estimate as to cotton was unexpectedly favorable and has caused a decline of more than half a cent in a single week, but it is only just to say that me reaction from artificial prices would have come earlier if information much more reliable than that of the gov- ernment had not been persistently discred- ited. The Attack on Stocks. The raid on stocks, which caused so sharp as depression on Wednesday, served a double purpose. It showed that current prices had been more fictitious than many had supposed, but also that substantial buying in many stocks was closer behind current _quotatlons than had been sup- posed. The backlog is the belief, to which Mr. Morgan gave expression, that European investors will buy largely of American securities as soon as the condi- tions which insure future prosperity here are clearly established. Railroad stocks closed on Wednesday $1.08 per share low- er, but on Friday only 43 centslower than last Friday, and trust stocks closed on Wednesday $1.06 lovVer,‘ but on Friday only 59 cents lower. The spilling of stocks at no time partook of the character of a panic. Financial reasons for appre- hension did not appear. Currency con- tinues to come hither from the interior, about 82,500, 000 \durlng the week, and there was not more but actually less dis- trust as respects commercial loans, of which the offerings continue small. Rail- road earnings for the first week of June were 4.1 per cent larger than last year, though 17.2per cent less than in 1893, and railroad tonnage ea t bound from Chicago was in four weeks 2 4,518 against 177,063 last year and 197,948 in 1893. It is not the time to look for marked improvement in industries, and the best thing that can be said of them is that none has as yet been seriously disturbed by threatened labor difficulties. It seems not improbable that all such difl‘lcultles may be averted. except perhaps the controversy about wages of iron puddlers and tin plate workers. The output of pig iron June 1 was 182,220 tons weekly against 189,398 tons May 1. while the stocks unsold, ex- cluding those held by the great steel com- panies, amounted to 785,943 tons against 769,532 May 1 and only 525,617 Jan. 1. These figures show that while consump- tion is fair it is much‘below the actual output of pig iron, and markets are ex- tremely dull because a great number of orders for finished products are kept back by uncertainty regarding the mainte- nance of prices by the various pools and combinations. The billet pool has been able to make its first large sale, but with a guarantee of the price for months to come, while middlemen are still selling billets at Pittsburg 50 cents to $1 per ton lower than the pool price. Miscellaneous Industries. The demand for boots and shoes seems slightly better, notwithstanding an ad- vance of 2 % cents 'per pair is demanded on some staple qualities, but there is very little life. as the;,manufacturers are not anxious to sell, having! business for some Weeks to come, while dealers are ordering no more than their present necessities re. quire. Shipments for the east in . two weeks of June have been 187,085 cases against 194,094 last year, but larger than in the same weeks of any previous year. The textile manufacturers are making no improvement. The accumulation of cot- ton goods continues; print cloths have de- clined to the lowest point ever reached, and a general stoppage to relieve the market is expected. Sales of Wool in two Weeks of June have been only 5,823,500 pounds against 12,561,965 last year, and no g'aln is expected in the manufacture for some time to come. Failures for the first week of June showed liabilities of 82,218,717 against $10,810,498 last year, including $9,160,000 of the Cordage company and 82, 507,228 in 1894. Manufacturing was $969,540 against $462,468, exclusive of the Cordage com~ puny, last year and $476,118 in 1894. Trad- ing was 81,206,145 against $1,129,030 last year and $1,872,361 in 1894. Failures for the Week have been 246 in the United States against 241 last year and 27 in Canada against 24 last year. Failureof an‘om Banking Institution. EDINBURG, 1nd,, J une 13.-John A.

WEST POINT, June 13.—-Representative R. G. Cousins of Iowa delivered the an- nual address to the West Point graduates. In closing he said: “The flag of the republic has been given to your charge by the nation’s patriot dead. For more than a quarter of a cen- tury of peace your evening gun has sound- ed to that flag salutatiou of a loyal people, and, fluttering on the melody of patriot- ism, it has been lowered to your vigilant and faithful kcc, ing in the nighttime, only to be lifted on Old Glory’s staff to greet the morning sun and to command your willing homage. “Wherever your commissions may direct you, you will hear that evening salutatlon, and sometimes when you hear the patriotic melodies of these dear old days of school life they will be mingled with the familiar voices of ;;:.r messmates and maybe with some more tender voice, and then there will come into your eyes a mist of tears, and through it all and through the mystic glimmer of the years you will always see the emblem . of your country—the match- less banner of the stars. "Interwoven with the memory of things that are the nearest and the dearest to your hearts that flag shall color all your friendships with the lasting blue of true fidelity, and its red shall fire your courage with unconquerable ardor. “Your honor and your manhood shall keep its purity and be forever typified by that banner‘s stainless white.
