THE CORONATION.
LONDON, July 24th. Once again we are spurring our somewhat: jaded enthusiasm to the proper contemplation of flags and bunting, the consideration of pro- cessions, fireworks and other delights. Undoubtedly, the Coronation festivities will be of a subdued character in view of the fact that the numbers attending it will be much smaller in August than they would have been in June and also because the public spirit has been so effectually damped by the financial loss, and
'The reduction of the interest allowed to de. the grave anxiety which accompanied the post positors in the P. O. Savings Bank, while very panement. Sull it may safely be promised that the King will receive a very warm wel much to be regretted as apparently discourag come from his people, whatever else may being thrift in small savers, is really the logical lacking in the coming pageant. The Court Jenves Cowes three days before the ceremony in order that the convalescent pay rest before the ceremony for at least 24 hours. The

other,
WEATHER.
The extraordinary weather exemplified by a temperature which this week bas varied from. 87. highest reading on Saturday, to 52° highest on Tuesday,în combination with the absence of the King has been responsible for a con- siderable flight of the gay world from London, Fashionable folk are making an early summer boliday, in orderto return to town for Coronation week prior to escaping to Scotland for the, rath. Grouse prospects are by no means smiling, though rents'are unusually high. The bitter spring weather completely killed off the early hatchings and the late birds are neither very strong nor very numerous. So many Americans are taking moors this autumn, how- ever, that from owners' point of view it is likely to be an exceptionally fine season.
The investigations relating to

sequence to the reduction in Consols and one Government Stock and points to a plethora of capital in this country which is not without valne as a criticism on the cry of our Continental friends that this country is entering on her commercial as well as her political decadence.
THE BLUE FUNNEL LINE, AND
SHIPPING SUBSIDIES.
Messrs. Alfred Holi and Co. write as follows to The Times with that practical hard-headed- ness which has probably been the main factor in bringing the Blue Funnel line to its present prosperous condition:-
It is greatly to be hoped that shipowners will not he tempted to barter their birthright of free trade for a chance in a scramble for a mess of poltage in the shape of subsidies. The mer. cantile marine has been 'built up by, and depends upon., the free trade system; and though, no doubt, shipowners who advocate shipping subsidies do not propose similarly to help by protection other harassed industries, it would prove impossible to confine protection to a single trade. "I am in favour of free trade, Mr. Cobden, in everything except herrings," said the herring dealer 'but, unless the principle be rigidly adhered to of not dipping into the taxpayer's pocket to benefit any individual in terest, the result will soon be a competitive are now in full progress. Nominally, the Ad-attack upon the Treasury such as is believed to be made at Washington by powerful trade miralty is keeping the tests quite secret, but practically anybody who takes a little trouble combinations, in which can find out what is going on. The authorities. Papparently count--not altogetherwithout reason on the indifference of the average English. man to all matters outside his immediate ken, The net result op to the present time is in Į proportionately. favour of oil all along the line. The Committee state that it proves cheaper, tekes less storage room, can be replaced three times as quickly as coal, is easier to handle and less wearing to the boilers, and finally that one oil stoker can take the place of a large co›l staff. Dr. Dvorkoritz the great.petroleum expert puts the proportion of stekers as one to a hundred. It ́ Is quite possible that one or two of our larger ships may 'shortly be fitted with temporary oil boilers by way of experiment.
THE WELFARE OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC passes out of view altogether. Protection in other industries must diminish the amount of cargo moving, and the carrying trade will suffer
It is often urged that, while subsidies are in themselves undesirable, the action of lareign nations is compelling us to follow them in this policy if we are to keep our shipping industry alive. But the shipping trade, so far from being nearly extinct, has (though at the [[moment depressed) passed through within the last four years one of its periods of greatest prosperity." That the foreign subsidising system is vexatious we well know, for our line (of Cargo Steamers the Far East) bas for years
It is rumoured that the Duke of Connaught had to compete, while itself unsubsidised, with may take over
French, German, Dutch, and Japanese sub. sidised fines. But before a policy of retaliat ing subsidies is rushed into,
THE VICEROYALTY OF IRELAND,
vacant by the resignation of Lord Cadogan, In political and fashionable Irish circles, the suggestion is received with enthusiasm, but it is scouted among military men who firmly Believe and desire that the Duke will succeed to the Commandership in Chief early next --year. Between these conflicting opinions I am unable to arrive at the truth, but should H.R.H. be offered the Irish appointment it will effectually close the voice of rumour with regard to Pall Mall. This one point aside the only objection to the Duke's Viceroyalty would appear to be in the possibility of a conflict between Dublin Castle and the Irish agrarians respecting the United Irish League, or other like bodies, a conflict into which it would be most undesirable to introduce a member of the Royal Family,
DEATH OF 'MR. FORREST,
THE FOLLOWING POINTS
need to be weighed.
1. 13 shipping the only industry injured by the vicious fiscal arrangements of foreign countries? Could not, and would not, many manufacturers and others who suffer from foreign tariffs put in a strong plea for similar help if the taxpayer were induced to endow shipping?
1
2. Would the proposed, remedy strengthen British shipping? There is much experience to show that public doles are demoralising to an industry, as eleemosynary help is to an in dividual, and for similar reasons. In the long rue we shall be the stronger for walking without a crutch.
3. What practical proposal can be mader Either all British shipping must be subsidised, Old China folk will regret to learn that Mr. | which, to be effective, would involve an up- Forrest, formerly of the Customs, died at his | thinkable charge upon the taxpayer, or the residence in Westminster a few days ago. It is nearly twenty-five years since Mr. Forest left the East, but he has always kept up his Interest in mailers and persons Anglo-Chinese He bas been in failing health for over a year and I thought him looking frightfully ill when last we met at the house of another China man Mr. F. S. Mackintosh some ten days ago, but the end was quite sudden, as the doctors had foretold. Heart failure is certified as the immediate cause,
SHIPPING COMBINE
doles must be given sporadically, presumably, to those who can best prove their need for them. How pleasant and dignified for a ship- owner to have to leave his office and spend his time in the lobbies endeavouring to convince politicians that he in particular is being nearly ruined by foreign subsidies ! And it must be remembered that every subsidy given to one selected shipowner acts as a positive injury to the unsubsidised. Practically, would the great body of shipping stand such selective subsidising ? It often seens to be assumed that only passenger lines are worthy of considera- tions, perhaps because they come most promi-
ently before the general public and their names sound most familiar; but usually cargo shipowners have a harder struggle, and they render on equally important national service.
What, then, it may be asked, can boulone to
The Shipping Combine seems in a fair way to break down altogether, American capitalista disturbed at the outburst of feeling in this country at the signs of Government activity and the obvious intention of English shippers embark upon retaliatory competitive measures, are proving slow in advancing the price for which Mr. Mergan contracted to purchase the White-Star Line, a price it must be remember which it la admitted that, foreign subsidiar ed greatly in excess of the estimated value. Inflict? Certainly no such expedient is to be Mr. Morgan has already asked for an extension thought of as the revival of the Navigation of time in which to find the necessary money, Laws, those products of the dark ages of com- and it is now at least possible that Britanniamercial policy, nor the imposition of differential may yet be left in proud control of the Atlantic dues upon foreign vessels or differential
Messrs, Houstons' arrangements for the S. African shipping trade are also before the eyes of the commercial world this week. The Liverpool firm is making a bold bld against the "ring" or "Conference steamers which fembrace the Union, Clan, Elerman, and Buck- nail lines, and whatever the ultimate result may be it seems certain that the public will score, the American companies have already lowered freight one shilling per ton and whether.

duties on goods imported in them. The true shipping policy is to meet bad foreign fiscal methods with enlightened British methods, eliminating such elements of subsidising as have found their way, contrary to our general principle, into even our own amnagements made ostensibly for purely postal purposes. Just as protective tariffs should be fought with free imports, so subsidised should be fought. by unsubsidised British enterprise. Such a policy requires patience, but there is absolutely nothing in the present state of the shipping world to make us despair of its success.
