DANTsIC. Sept. 9

AD-A~ AoHCj
The city has all day long been in
ii state Of the greatest excitement,
as various reports have from time to
time circulated to the effect that no
meeting would take place between
the two Emperors. All doubt and
uncertainty were, however, set at
rest when at y o'clock the Russian
squadron hove in sight. The sea was
as smooth as g'a5S, but the fog was
so dense that the Russian ships could
Only advance very slowly, and 1t
became, therefore, doubtful whether
the Car would enter Dantzic at all.
The Emperor William arrived early
this morning, accompanied by
the Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-
Schwerin and the Grown Prince.
The Russian Ambassador, Nj. de
S%abouroff, the chief Of the Berlin
police, Herr son Madai, and Rear
Admiral von Stosch were assembled
to receive the august travellers.
The Emperor greeted everybody
with smiles, though his face some
what clouded over when he vas
informed that the Gear could not
arrive before noon. However, when
the daughter of the stationmaster
presented a large bouquet of corn
flowers to His Majesty, his face
frightened up again and assumed its
usual kind expression. Several petit
tions were handed into the Emperor's
carriage on his way through the city.
Soon after his arrival the Emperor
received Prince Bismarck in audience.
AT II o'clock the members of the
Russian Embassy went to Neufahr-
wasser, and the suite of the Emperor

in. After this ceremony was over,
the Gar held a very long and serious
conversation with Prince Bismarck,
and then followed a d(jedner on board
the Hohenzollern, which was beauti-
fully decorated with flags and gar
lands. The Royal party afterwards
returned to Neufahrwasser under a sa-
lutte. When the special train which vas

again fired and were repeated on the
entrance of the train into the station
at pantsIc. The two Emperors then
stepped into q carriage and drove into
the town amid the ringing of the bells
and the acclamatlons Of the crowd.
The Emperor Alexander wore the
uniform Of his Prussian Lancer Regi-
ment, together, with the ribbon of the
Order OF the Black Eagle. The salts
faction of the people was very great,
as mp to the very last moment it had
been feared that the Gar would not
enter the town at all. In tho second
carriage followed the Crown Prince
Of Prussia and the Grand Duke VIadi-
mir, who were as healthy cheered
as the occupants of the first carriage.
The Car was visibly astonished and
delighted at the enthusiastic reception
given HIM, and Prince Bismarck a.so
looked very much pleased, and did
not try to hide his joy at this new
political Succrss. Their Maiesties
drove straight to the Government
house, where a guard Of honour was
drawn up to receive them, and there

Searles insisted on his right to examine and
debate the bill. Mr.. Kendall declared that the
opposition to the bill came from men who
had no interest in the section where the boom

blackmailers. He intimated that Mr.. Searles
was not sincere in his wish to debate the bill
but only sought to kill it by delay. Mr..

"rhe Iron Mask Tonight.

Lovers of the drama will not forget that the
romantic drama, ''The Iron Mask" will be
produced this evening. An exchange speaks
thus of the play and the company:
A large and appreciative audience gathered
at the Opera house last evening to witness the
rendition of ''The Iron Mask" The plot is
interesting to high degree, full of startling
situations, and the characters are well sus-
tanned by actors and actresses of ability and
great dramatic talent. Mr.. Frederic Bryton
as ''Gaston," the child of chance, is the star,
and too much cannot be said in his praise. 10
the first two acts he has but little opportunity
to bring forth his strong points, but as the
play continues so wildly are the scenes por-
trayed as to merit earnest and prolonged ap-
plause. In the prison scene he personates the
old man in a manner never before equalled by
any actor in this city, and has been the sub
ject Of admiring comment in all theatrical cir
cles. The support was superb and ably as.
sisted the leader. The costumes were new aud
elegant. 1t is very seldom that our amuse-
ment lovers have an opportunity of witness.

You are respectfully invited to attend a mass
meeting of the lovers of liberty and justice,
called under the auspices of the Central Land
League, for Friday, 2Sth inst, at 7:30 O'Clock,

1otal. ............... '|Iou
In pronouncing the above forgery
the Dispatch is simply earning the con-
tinuance of its title. The GLOBE has the
original document in its possession. and
any one curious enough to call at the
GLOBE Office can satisfy himself of the
genuineness of the paper. No member
of the Republican committee or candi-
date on the Republican ticket, will deny
the authenticity of this assessment.
1t is little surprising that the federal
office holders were allowed to escape
with only $40 each. AS matter of fact,
the committee originally proposed to
assess them $25 each, but they unkindly
demurred. The paper shows that Col.
Kiefer's assessment was raised from 800
to $3.50, to cover the shortage caused by
the kick of the federal Office holders.
While 1t was very small in the fat office
holders to object to the original assess
ment, it was very appropriate to increase
Col. Kiefer's stipend. He conld well
afford to pay the entire expense of the
campaign, as he draws his pay from the
county without consideration, while he
devotes his time to the Hail Insurance
company. He ought to bleed literally.

THE RIKER CONTENTION,

As st. Paul inaugurated the river con-
vention at St. Louis, it was appropriate
that Minnesota man should be selected
to preside over the assemblage. Mr..
DunnelPs committee position in the
House has enabled him to become famil-
lar with the necessities of the river i'm
provement, and to render efficient service
in securing such aid as has been OBJ
tanned. His selection as permanent
chairman of the convention was there
fore graceful personal recognition, as
we'll as a compliment to the state.
The convention, in point of numbers
exceeds any previous gathering of 8
similar character. Its element Of
weakness is likely to result from
its numerical strength. Repre-.
sentatives from MINOR tributaries to the
great river have been enabled to attach

their demands to the parent scheme, and
there is likely to be so much clamor in
Congress for what are really local i'm
provements, that the national highway
will fail to receive its proper due. At the
original convention in st. Paul, four years
ago, the bone of contention was the at
tempt to load down the demand for the
Mississippi with aid for the tributaries. :"
That did not meet with favor at that
time, but seems to have carried the day
at St. Louis. 1t is difficult problem to
draw the line, but the eagerness of mem
bers of Congress to load down the appro-
priation with multitude of small though
meritorious items, greatly retards the
work so essential on the Father of Waters.
