ceremony lwould he greatly interfered
with, bus at 946 o'clock the rain ceased,
and prospects that the day would yet be
fine began TO appear. At 11.30 o'clock
tie clouds had broken and the sun was
shining brilliantly, the weather being
ratner warm. The ceremony of opening
the exhibition began at $50 O'Clock in
the afternoon, AT which time it was
showery, but 'at three o'clock the sun
was shining brightly, The crowd was
immense and enthusiastic in spite of al
formations of rain. Throughout the pro-
ceedings the cries were everywhere
heard of "Vive la Republique" and
"Vive la France" The Marshal arrived
In the state carriage, escorted BY his mil
itary household, troops being drawn up
all along the route from the Elysee.

Bosnia. The Standards and TelegrapL's
Vienna correspondents also deny the
truth of the report.
