Every- thing is_so much larger, so much more profuse than we are accustomed to in Europe; everything is arranged with such order and precision; every- thing goes so quickly; there are so many policemen—and so many re- portérs and_photographers—that one is carrled off one's feet. Then there are the crowds—press- ing, cheering, straining to get a look. I did not seem to have enough hands to wave with, eyes to look with or wits about me to cope with it all. It was too much. What strikes me, above all, though, is the extraordinary good humor of everybody. Let me say a word in admiration of New York's police, the finest set of men I have ever seen— efficlent, quick, decided and, withal, friendly. They attend strictly to thelr dutles and yet are never rude or rough with the crowd they have to keep in check. All Her Friends. I felt as if each one were a per- sonal friend.

Mr. Clayton declared he believed a_merger of the street car lines was ahead and that when this time came the reinforced financial position of all traction interests would permit a greater extenslon of suburban lines. County Delegates Differ.

I found my little salon full of flowers and fruit, of telegrams and letters of welcome.

STAR, W/ QUEEN SEESFALLS ON'WAY 70 CANADA Cuts Out Some Side Trips at Niagara to Save Strength. In Toronto Today. By the Associated Erews, T =z fall drew the attention of Queen Mar today for a few hours before the Ri manian royal party moved into C: on the second leg of the transconti- || nental journey. The Queen boarded her train imme- diately after a dinner and reception in Buffalo, tendered by the city last night, arriving here at 2 o'clock this morning. Because of the late hour at which the Queen began her sleep, and be- cause of efforts being made to safe- guard her health, some of the recep- tion program here was canceled at | |i the last moment. An early breakfast and side trips in the neighborhood of the falls were among the events which were aban- doned at the request of the Queen.

At Buffalo last night the Queen said reports that she had been recalled were “a lot of nonsense.” A new bit of jewelry had a place to- day in the Queen's gem bo®, it being | a jade slave bracelel with a buffalo pendant, the gift of the city of Buf- falo. It was accepted by the Queen | as a souvenir of her visit and recep- tion, which she said she deeplv appr ciated. She expressed the hope that she might some time pay another visit. Brief Remarks Over Radio. The Queen’'s remarks at the dinner were disappointingly brief to radio | listeners.
