It has caught the contagion of unrest which has been afttatln most other countries and broken out Into serious rioting. The immediate cause was the result of the narliamentary elections, in which it was expected that a comblna tlon of the Socialist and.

Liberal parties would be able to put out the Clericals, who have been lonr in control. This is due largely to the peculiar suffrage law, which under the constitution of 1831. when the kingdom was established and its independence guaranteed by Austria, Russia, Great Britain and Prussia, as modified in 1S93, contains some peculiar provisions. In the choice of members of the Senate the minimum age of electors is 30 years, and for the half who are directly chosen there is a proportionate representation of parties. Members of the Chamber of Representatives are all chosen directly, and there is also proportional repre sentation of parties.

Electors for it must be 25 years of age. For the chamber every citizen of the prescribed age living not less than a year in the same commune is qualified. The feature of the system that has made the trouble is that every citizen over 35 years of age, married or a widower with children, who pays a small minimum tax. has an extra vote. and also every one over 25 with an income from investment in Belgian funds or a savings bank of $20 a year.

Then there is a favored class- which has two extra votes. It comprises citizens over 25 years of age who have received a diploma of higher instruction. iT who are engaged in profes sional work implying higher instruc tion. Failure to vote is a misdemeanor punishable by This seems to be a very Intelligent and sensible basis for government. It gives every man a voioe; but gives more weight in the making of laws to those who have shown thrift and acquired training.

It provides for minority representation and it eompels citizens to perform those duties in wnicn ours are so remiss. The recent disturbance grows out of the fact that the Clerical party Belgium being almost solidly Roman Catholic, has injudiciously insisted on providing for the support of Catholic schools by universal taxation. It is the plural vote which enables them to do this, and the Liberals and Socialists are in revolt against it. Such a policy to schools seems a mistaken one. and if the Clericals would withdraw it there would doubtless be a restoration of order and better feeling.

We would never tolerate such legislation here. The population of Belgium is not homogeneous racially, being pretty nearly evenly divided between French and Flemish, and growing out of the present friction the French are talking of seeking annexation to France. Belgium was part of the Netherlands till 1830, when it separated by a reso lution and elected a King. The Gov ernment, being based on the popular will, must expect to bend to it In dangerous crises or take the risk of being swept away. British Capital Moving To Canada.

The movement of British capital and energetic British business men to Can ada and other British colonies grows constantly stronger. There will shortly arrive In Canada a group of men who represent very influential Investing interests, and who i visit the Dominion for the express purpose of personally Investigating the opportunities for capital in enterprises of "various classes. Kaiiways, timber, water nowers. lands for colonies, general business will all come In under the scrutiny of these associated gentle men, and those who know-of th no si bill ties of the Dominion In these verv matters can well believe that the re ports will be favorable when the party returns to Britain. It is understood that the future will show still larger immigration to Canada from the British Isles, and that with trie coming- to the Dominion of many representatives of the nobility and the gentry, there will also arrive greater numbers of the working classes from the agricultural, as well as the industrial, districts of Great Britain.

There are going on In Great Britain immense and far-reaching changes in social, political and industrial affairs; changes that compel activities abroad, owing to the unsatisfactory conditions existing at borne. The past 25 years have revolutionized British national thought, as well as British national policies, and the Britain of the twentieth century is a new Britain, not the slow-going, peaceful, steady and conservative Britain of Palmerston, Disraeli, Derby and Salisbury. -The change In conditions in their na tive land inclines many representatives of the oldest families in England and Scotland to seek their. fortunes in other fields of action, and the, prosperity of Canada, the great numbers of people there of their own blood and race, attracts them to the domains to the north which are under their old flag and same sovereign. Canada is to be congratulated, for the coming of this powerful tide of British people will continue to advance her development in all that makes prosperity permanent, as well as rapid.

Notwithstanding the Dominion's rejection of reciprocity, regardless of errors of expression by public men on each side of the line, the years of the future will draw the people of the two countries still closer, will result In a better understanding, and in more intimate business relations them. between 0 Securities and Trade.

1 Holland Gives Tip To the Congressional Investigators To Undertake To Discover How These Big Issues of Bonds Hare Bees Financed. rsciAL prarATca re ras sxqttasa. New Tork, June 10. Within-the bast tea days there have been financial transactions calling for large amounts of money: Some of these transactions might serve as a basis for1 investigation by the subcommittee of the Pujo Investigating Committee If that subcommittee could remain In New Tork long enough to take the testimony which would be essential. On Thursday of last week the state ot New Tork offered for sale nearly XCS.00O.0il0 of 4 per cent gold bonds.

Had these bonds been sold at par the purchasers would be entitled to receive a net income at 4 per cent, since the bonds are untaxable. A month earlier the city of New Tork sold a much larger amount of bonds, and there were so many subscribers to the issue that the amount was oversubscribed a little over three times. The New Tork City bonds. If sold at par, would yield to the purchaser 44 per cent net I income. These bonds.

however, were marketed at an average price above par which would make the net Income to original purchasers four and twenty one-hundred ths a year. In view of the great demands which are made upon the public by those who are offering bonds for sale, state, municipal, railroad and industrial, there was natural curiosity to learn whether the state Ot New Tork had approached the money market at a favorable time. Moreover, the state bonds yield only 4 per cent Interest and that -is not a very tempting rate to individual investors. Issue Oversubscribed. On the whole, the offering of the state ef these $26,400,000 of bonds, round numbers.

hss resulted satisfactorily to the stata officers, although we hear some careful, al most covert, comment by those familiar with money market conditions. Indicating that the sale could not be regarded 'in the highest degree ss aatlafactory. Tet an ex amination of the detalla of this sale seems not to justify this quiet criticism, i I These state bonds were divided Into three classes. One was an lasua of f30.000.d00. to raise the money for the payment of improvements upon the enlarged Erie Ca nal and the hlghwsys.

Another waa for to pay for the construction of the necessary canal terminals, and prin cipally the one to be established at Oo-wanus Bay, at the west end of Long Island. A comparatively trivial offering of $000,000 of bonds was for the purpose of raising the money needed for 'the Saratoga State Reservation, the state having taken over Saratoga Springs. Of thess three Issues, the first one wss hsndsomely oversubscribed. Nine million dollars more than the S30.000.000 offered was subscribed. The bankers have no doubt that this $9,000,000 waa subscribed In good faith.

It has not always been possible to say that of oversubscriptions to New Tork City bond offers. Some of these have been undoubtedly speculative. therefore, there was $20,000, 000 so anxious to be converted Into stats bonds bearing 4 per cent that these offer- Ings, with a few exceptions, were at a premium above par. Many of the premiums were very alight the average being on ln-lOOths above par. There could be no criticism of a sale of this kind.

The credit of the state, so far as this test Is concerned, is standardised at about four per cent or a trifle under. Tbe criticism must. therefore, have been made directly at the test which the offering of SS.ono.oOu in bonds for a barge canal terminal made possible. This wss not only not oversub scribed, butj was not fully accepted. Favor Long Time Bonds.

So there would seem to be some disc rim (nation affecting the credit of the state. Tet the reason is not difficult to find. The state bonds, which were oversub scribed, run for SO years. The state bonds, which were undersubacrlbed, run for over 30 years, I It is apparent, there fore, that those wbo were ready to bid upon this offering were anxious to secure the long-time bonds. There Is always a difference in favor of long-time bonds behind which stands high credit as compared with bonds which contain the same quality of credit, but bave a shorter term to run.

The Pujo Committee can put Its finger upon a concrete fact should it undertake to discover how these bonds are financed and what proportion of them the national banks have taken. Of the amounts apportioned to the bidders for the first class of bonds 18 were in favor of banks of New Tork City. There were some apportionments to banks in other parts of New Tork State, to one bank In Philadelphia and to one In' Cleveland. A little over $5,000,000 of bids from the larger banks of New York City were accepted by the State One ef a million made by the National City Bank and another of a million made by the American Exchange National Bank were among the largest of fered. The Pujo Committee might ask the officers of these and other banks if they bought these bonds as Investments for ths banks to be listed under the general head of loans for loans they are to the atate of New Tork or whether they were bought for customers.

This committee could also probably discover on investigation that tbe greater part of this 120.000,000 win be used as collateral security for the obtaining of loans from the banks with which to pay for subscriptions. The incident will Illustrate what is called the concentration of banking capital and resources and the utilisation of that by brokers for the purpose of buying large issues of bonds. Almost without exception the bids which were made for these state bonds, excluding those which eame from. u. 1 1 were uiau, uj prwen) wne un doubtedly expect to sell these bonda to the public at whatever advance over the pur chase price It may be possible to obtain.

Subject tor the Brokers. Transactions of this kind well illustrate the ability swiftly to concentrate great money resources of national credit, so that tbese may be made available for bankers. -broken and even speculators whoae atten tion Is turned to large issues of bonds. It Is probably a correct inference that the Comptroller of the 8tate of New Tork and. a month ago.

the Comptroller of the City of New Tork received Informally, al most confidentially. Information from those who control large amounts of money that their offerings of state and city bonda OLD-VMD IT "Cfcelro," Reader of Cheiro, the palmist, haa written his memoirs. He tells an interesting story of being summoned to tbe Mayfair house of a distinguished lady, who met him upon hla arrival, saying that she wanted him to sit behind the curtains that she bad fixed up. and read the hand of a man who would come there for the purpose. Cheiro retired behind the curtains, and In a tew moments the lady returned accompanied by a gentleman who thrust his hands through the curtains for a reading.

What happened la beat told his own language. "My subject seemed to enjoy the experience Immensely. I had got to the point of telling how and why the most Important days of the week for him would be Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridaya, and that hia important numbers we re sixes and nine, and that the months which represented these numbers being March 21 to April 31. April 21 to May 27. and October 21 to November 27.

'As this is the only date when these two curious numbers whicb you say are the keynote of my life come together I suppose then thst would not go begging. There may bave been something like an informal underwriting of these issues. It may be that before the Pujo Committee haa completed Its Investigation It will be able to obtain information respecting the largest financial underwriting undertaking ever made, even larger thsn that upon which the organisation of the United States Steel Corporation waa based. Something like $400,000,000. perhaps more, muat be obtained from banks and private bankers for the purpose ot paying the coat ot construction of the.

new subway rapid transit systems of the Greater New York. A part of this money must be raised by the city. In order to obtain It the city muat sell its bonds. There Is no adequate machinery by which the city bonds can be transferred directly from the Comptroller's office to the general public. Therefore, they must be sold to bankers and brokers.

The two rspid transit subwsy systems, that of Brooklyn and that of the Interbor-ough of Manhattan and the Bronx, must raise together g27S.00n.000. To secure this money It is vital that arrangements should be made with those who have been publicly accused of constituting the so-called money trust. Mr. Morgan and hls associates have underwritten $178,000,000 and Jacob Schlff and his associates have underwritten 100.000,000. It is the understanding that these head underwriters, so to call-them, have Invited others to become members of the underwriting syndicate.

It Is also the understanding that the responses to these Invttatlona have not been Highly encouraging. If there were a true money trust, a monopolistic control of banking credit, then this would not have been the experience of theee who are managing these two underwriting syndicates. Their command ot -their resources would have been sefflelent. Undoubtedly one of the reasons why there has been reluctance to Join these underwriting-syndicates ia the fact that the underwriting extended over a period of five years. Yet It then were a true money trust and a real monopolistic control of banking credit, even these ot jections would not avail.

The trust and the monopoly would be all-towerful. I Holumx CEIPPLE STASS TORMENTOBS. srsrtAt. niaraTTB to ras ssotrissa. Maysville, June 10.

ILendoa New Tork Sua The Question of the correct costume to be worn at courts and levees Is alwaya a aouroe of anxiety to those privileged to attend those functions. With women It Is a more or less straight forward matter, and one that can safely be left to expert milliners and dressmakers, but with men It Is far otherwise. The most frequent mia takes, arise from the fact that there are two styles of court dress at pres ent permitted to the ordinary civilian, an old and a new. Both are of black velvet, but the older dress is more elaborately ornamented with steel buttons, and there are lace frills and ruffles at the neck aad wrists. The mis takes arise from attempts to Introduce some of these ornaments of the old court drees Into tbe simpler form ot the new.

Sometimes psople in uniform come lo tourt wearing the trousers prescribed for a levee Instead of the breeches necessary for court drees. If there la a lime the Lord Chamberlain's officials occasionally Insist on their going home to rectify such mis takes, but aa there la no need at courts for many of the men to enter the preaence at all they are often allowed to pass with the warning to keep In the background as much aa possible. The Icourt dress of a private gentleman costs from IU to $2to. according to the elaboration of the steelwork In the buttons and aword hilt. The details et the ex penee are aa follows: Black velvet coat.

$S0eft. Steel buttons. SO to 3 Black velvet breeches. 131 to satin waistcoat. $10 10 to Cocked hat.

$12 to Knee and ahoe buckles. $4 80 to $U) 30. Sword. $1 Ml to $73 t. Members of the royal household need about worth of uniforms.

Tbe regulations ot the Lord Chamber lain's department for the dress of those who attend courts or levees are so strict that an expert court tailor Is posted at the entrance inf rooms In which the func-tlona are held. It Is his duly to scrutinise the clothes of each man attending the court and to draw attention to any Irregularity. A DISCREDITABLE TEIUMPH. fClevalaad Plata Dealt rj. The unit rule Is undemocratic and un American.

It Is without the slightest shadow of justification under any t-lrcum stances. Its adoption by the Toledo con vention was an affront to the Democratic party and to the atate of Ohio. Taft managers at Columbus crushed the Roosevelt movement by mere weight of numbers. Ignoring the will of the voters of Ohio, who had declared overwhelmingly for the President'a opponent. Htrm supporters at Toledo repeated virtually the same offensive tact lea.

Both the Columbus and Toledo conven lions grossly misrepresented their constitu ents. The majority in each must answer for its sins. Not in years, if ever before, did a eon ventlon show such contemptuous disregard for the wishes of tbe rank and file of its party ss was manifested by the Democrats at Toledo. ith cynical unconcern the Harmon majority overrode the wishes ot more than Si.onii voters who registered a preference for Wood row Wilson in the recent primary and actually carried nloe dlatricta for him. It waa plain robbery to deprive the del egatea elected In primary from these nine districts of the privilege of voting according lo their Instruct tons.

It was a case of the majority clubbing the minority Into euomteaion. No man winning a victory under such circumstances can hope to profit by it. COLLEGE ATHLETICS, Leslie a eekly.
