(Copyrighted, lSfCi, by the Associated Press.) London. June 22 This lias been the coyest week of the season, due to the Ascot nu meeting and balls Bivcn by the Marchioness of Salisbury and others. Seel. illy, the As. meeting, just ended, has 1 the best on record.

Royalty and the admirers of royalty, to say nothing of those who are fond of good racing, turned out In almost the strongest possible force. The ground was so hard, however, that the owners of valuable horses were not willing to risk injuring them. The fields, consequently, were the smallest in years. For the display of toilets the weather could not have been better. On Tuesday und Thursday, the two principal days, the weather was bright and pleasant.

White was the color which predominated in the fashionable throng, while huts of enormous size, covered with long stemmed Hewers, made the royal lnclosure resemble a llower nardeu. The inelosuro was so crowded that walking about was almost an Impes. i bllity for women. The members of the roval family never left their box except fi luncheon, and the majority of the people present in the inclosurc had very little utisfucl ion far as mingling with royalty was concerned. All the smartest men with reputations as dressers to uphold wore bliielt frock coats and silk hats, with soft fronted shirts and small bow ties.

The Prince of Wales, on Thursday, shocked the leaders of fashion by appearing In a white "stovepipe" hat. ami he had evidently persuaded Earl Cadogan, who included in the Prince of Wales' bouse parry, to follow his example. There is much speculation as to whether the Prince of Wales' lead will have any effect on the fashions, hut It is not likely, as. in spite of all that has been said to the contrary on the subject, tho Prince of Wales il, not lead the fashions. There were fewer house parties than usual al Ascot, the 1 1 lit 1 those reseo! at the races tailing trains daily from Waterloo railroad station, where thousands assembled to witness the tm and arrivul of the fashionable crowds.

In of the many entries no American horse appeared at Ascot. Richard Crckcr of New York took a house at Ascot for the week and did things in style. He was most reetly dressed In a lomj frock coat, dark striped trousers, paten: leather shoes and a dazzling silk hut. Mr. Croker also carried a pair of racing glasses siting across his body from the shoulder.

Mrs. I'roker, who accompanied him. looked handsome, and was one of the best dressed women there. The Affrban prince now visiting England, Nasrulla Khn. was at Ascot on Cup day and he was as sulky as Usual.

He wore a heavy fur coat In spite of the fact that the mercury was at degrees. The Ameer of Afghanistan has resolved to allow his hopeful son to stay in England until the end of August, and it is an open secret that this stnl ieti resolution of 'he ameer greatly perturbs the royal family. He will probably, however, be shunted off to the continent. The queen arrived at Windsor castle from Balmoral today, and it Is understood that, the state dinner which she is to give to Nasrulla Khan will be a irrent affair. Iler majesty will not undergo the fatigue or giving a garden party at liuckinghani palace this season, as was hoped, but sihe will lend the grounds to the Prince anil Princess of Wales, ivhn lind the grounds of Marlborough liuuse ton small fur such a purpose.

The eloquent set. of resolutions which were drawn up by Colonel t'lnyton Mi Michael, proprietor of the Philadelphia North American, on the completion of the maiden trip across the Atlantic of the new American liner St. Louis, and which the obliging British ambassador at Washington, Sir Paunce fote, unsuspectingly signed, has landed that diplomat Into fresh trouble. Tin Cnnard and White Star lines people are furious at the wording of the resolutions, which declare that, the St. Louis had.

under American auspices, inaugurated a new era in the histoi of ocean frairic. and brought their influence to bear upon of parliament, with rhe result that the matter was brouot before the house of commons. The explanation furnished by the parllamcii'arj secretary of the foreign Sir Edward Grey, that the British ambassador did nut sign the resolutions in his official capacity, is not satisfactory to the' English shipowners. They say Sir Julian should have remembered that tin ambassador has no private i tpaclty, and that the statement will be used advertise American line to the detriment of th" British lines, which, they claim, nave invariably proved their superiority. The comment of the English newspapers upon the subject is altogether of a nature calculated to render Sir Julian Puuncefote un'mppy.

For instance, one newspaper remarks: "English diplomats are a day in 1h hands of a sharp Yankee." The paper referred to then recalls the Sarkvill West Incident, and adds: "Sir Julian Patiticefot. is now cleverly caught in a thoroughly American manto In an Interview on the subject with Colonel Clay; in the latter said: "i certainly made the oiution as strongly American as I could and probably Sir Pauncefote did nat ad them ear. fully. Ii was asked to sign tlcm as a distingulsle passenger and, tc ing the agre' nble gentleman he Is, he COUld not Weil refuse. The si So lutions were eireulat.

at dinm time and no one showed any objection to signing." Sir Julian I'auncefote w.is asUi if he wished to triage a stai' nvnt on the sulo. et. but he said he had nothing further to add to the ehplaiiatiou furnished by Sir Edward Grey in the house of commons.

Is the water supply of Long Island being decreased by other causes than its absorption by tho City of Brooklyn? Are the streams and the brooks of the south side of the islaud gradually drying up? It was the opinion of the Int Ellas Lewis, I and other eminent aborl. urlsts that I the plains of Long Island were orlginally I covered with dense forest of the common pitch pine, equal in height to tin occasional giant trees which still stand, few and far tio twecn, like great sentinels amid the shrub oaks. These great forest trees were used by i the curly settlers for lirewood, or made into charcoal, but no great inroads were mndo into the primeval until the Lung Island I railroad was completed, and the old fashioned wood burning locomotive scattered tin spark. 111 an directions. since tin; railroad was built say tifty years ago great lires have from time to time swept over the plains and destroyed almost all the great pine trees, except the occasional relics previously mentioned.

The dense forests have 1 ecu replaced by a low growth ot shrub ouk, and In many places the plains are so barren 1 trees as to he a picture of desolation and poverty. It Is claimed that the destruction of these immense forests by the early settlers and the Urea has so far denuded the surface of the soil of its natural protection from the evaporating effects of the winds and sun as to make it Incapable of retaining even moisture enough to sustain forest trees of any kind, and as natural consequence the streams and brooks which formerly carried oil' the surplus water have dried up or become sluice ways to carry off the water after heavy rain storms. In the days of the early settlers large streams, evidently fed chiefly by surface drainage and moisture stored up in these forests, flowed southward from the "backbone" of tho island until they were lost in the tide water creeks putting In from the bay and ocean. These streams furnished the power for the grist and saw mills, and the site of tho old villages Is usually where the stream from the upland met the tide water, the highway running Just below the dam. with a mill pond on the upper side of the road and dock on the lower side.

The streams from the upland furnished power fur the mills and at the same time kept the tide water creek open for navigation. Those streams extended nearly half way across, the Island and seemed practically inexhaustible. In many eases, however, the old mills are gone, the Umber dam is replaced by one of masonry, and the mill ponds are so called storage reservoirs, but the worst of it is tie. bivoks and streams which formerly made the ponds possible are in many cases hut a gravel bed. totally devoid of water except after prolonged storms, without resemblance to a Slowing stream or babbling brook.

The former beds of many of these streams may still be traced even north of the main line of the Long Island railroad, which runs comparatively near the hills dividing the water shed the surface drabiagc on the north running to the sound and or. the south to the ocean but except In perhaps half a dozen instances they have been practically dry for at least half a century. In the journey from Mlneola to Hlverhead a number of these beds of former streams may be seen, but they have long since ceased to deserve the name of bri oks. Along the south side of the island the drying up of the streams is not so uotlcable and the decrease in the volume of water is not so easily determined since so many of the streams have been dammed up und the water held in reservoirs by the city. This, of course, dries up the stream below, although it Is usually filled with salt water when the tide Is In.

The only way to determine the diminution in the volume of water is to examine a brook which has not been disturbed in any way by the city. At East Rockaway, between the residences of Mr. (J. M. Dentuii and Dr.

isuabury there is a nameless stream which, now meets tide water at Main street. Its bed at this point Is three feet below the surface and is about six feet in width. A little stream trickles along The bottom, except when a very severe drought dries it up altogether. The former bed of this stream may still be traced northward, through the old Hewlett farm almost to Lynbrook. a mile or more Inland.

Fifty years ago It was a lively babbling brouk above Valley Stream avenue. It is now completely dry, except after a heavy "rainfall, when It catches a little of the surface drain ago and fills up the trout ponds at its head. This Is only one of hundreds of similar brooks along south side, some of them have dried up altogether while others still How spasmodically during the rainy season. These streams have not been directly affected by the taking of the water by the city and their ixtrtial or complete extinction must be duo to natural causes of the denuding of the land by cutting trees, clearing swamps and general cultivation. So far as is known there has been no material decrease in the rainfall, although It varies greatly frum year to year.

These facts lead to the Inevitable conclusion that tho streams of the south side of Long Island are drying up and the process is going on with gntitor rapidity than has been supposed. Tho natural way is to attribute any diminution in tho water supply to tho city of Brooklyn, but there is abundant evidence that other causes have much to do with it. Tho cutting off and burning of the forest trees, the clearing up of swamps and the cultivation of the soil and perhaps wells sunk for private and local village use are Important factors to bo conrldered when considering the future water supply of Brooklyn.
