T NEW YORK, Jan. 22—The first appar- ent effect in New York City of the cable- gram from England announcing the death of Queen Victoria was in the almost in- stant lowering of flags all over the city to half mast. This was particularly true | with regard to the financial district, where every business house or building had its bunting ready. Wall street and its adja- cent thoroughfares were soon given silent inttmation that one of the world's most notable personages had passed away. Trinity Church. at the head of Wall street, took note of the event by the toll- ing-of its bell, and possibly the first offi- cial In the United States to take cogniz- ance of the passing of England’'s monarch was the sub-Treasurer, who, as soon as he recefved notice, lowered the flag of the subtreasury building. The flags of Russia, Germany, Italy and other nations were half masted at the varlous forelgn con- sulates and steamship offices on Bowling Green and Lower Broadway. All of the British socleties have gone into mourning and as early as an hour after the announcement'of the Queen's | death had mourning displayed. The following cablegram was sent this afternoon from the headquarters of the American Salvationists in this city: His Royal Highness, the DIrince of Wall Osborne: On behalf of the American Salva- tionists we assure your Royal Highness and | members of the royal family of our profound- est sympathy and prayers. FREDERICK and EMMA BOOTH-TUCKER. The reply recelved was: The Prince of Wales thanks American Sal- vationists for the telegram ©f sympathy. Bishop Potter saild that if he should at- tempt to estimate the character of the Queen it would simply be upon the same Ilines as he used in his address to students and young men at Calvary Church Sun- day night. He then laid emphasis upon the Tact that Victoria was llke Washing- ton, because it was the nobility of her character rather than other conspicuous gifts of intellect that won for her such universal esteem. They had been the most successful rulers: of their respective nations and yet neither had possessed any such shining talents as those with whom Napoleon dazzled the world. Bishop Pot.- ter also said: “In my opinion there has been no politi- cal bond that has bound together the Brit- ish empire with more power, If as muer:, as the bond of personal devotion to this beaugiful character and personality. [ was much struck on my recent trip around the world to observe the extent to which this extreme personal devotion was noticeable. People who had never seen the Queen, had never been to England and never had expected to be, appeared to feel the same personal devotion as English- men themselves. The attraction and co- Austria, Mexico, hesive force of this sentiment upon colo- plal ife was very remarkable.
