THE NEW cnrNEsE MINISTER
with Hts Rstlnue Arrive aud Go TO
Castle stewart.

About dozen members OF the Chinese
legation In this city went TO the Baltimore
and Potomac depot last evening at 1880
O'Clock to meet Chang Yen Woon, the new
minister of the imperial government They
were gazed at by stragglers around the
depot, but no crowd collected, as It was
not generally known that the party was ex-
pected TO arrive. The train bearing the
new embassy OF forty persons entered tho
depot at 8 o'clock, and shortly before that
time members of the old embassy who had
come to meet them drew up In line on the
platform.
Upon Chang Yen Woon landing the min
lister advanced to meet his successor aud
shook hands. They walked TO their car
riages in waiting, the balance OF the two
embassies falling in line, and were driven TO
Castle Stewart, where everything was ready
TO receive them.
Senator Sherman was at the depot, but
there were no representatives OF the govern
ment in their official capacity to receive the
embassy.
The baggage Of the suite formed an enor-
nous pile. IL consisted OF small boxes
made OF willow and much resembling
baskets, innumberable boxes resembling
tea cheats, band boxes, and small bundles
without number.
Chang Yen Woon is q thick-set man OF
medium height, about 90 years OF age. lie
has held various offices Of honor In his own
country, and comes here as minister pleni-
potentiary and envoy extraordinary to the
United States, Peru, aud Spain.
The party left San Francisco on the 18th
Instant, arriving In Chicago last Tuesday.
After having rested, the embassy In the
evening were escorted TO witness the per-
Torrance Of the "Mlkado" by the McCaull
Opera Company.
Wednesday morning the minister was
waited on by Gov. Oglesby, OF illinois,
mayor Of the city, president OF the board OF
trade, and many prominent business men.
Several buildings were shown, the board Of
trade pleasing the most
The Battle Of Gettysburg Panorama was
also visited before leaving.
At 1916 o'clock that evening the party left
Chicago over the Pc nnsylvania railroad for
this city direct, under the escort OF Mr.. IL.
l.. Watcham, the city passenger agent at
Chicago Of the Pennsylvania Company, ex-
tensive preparations having been made by
that road for their safe conduct and com
fort.
The minister expressed himself as favor
ably impressed with the country and atten.
tons bestowed. Respecting thequestion OF
alleged insult to him by the San Francisco
collector Of customs, he appears somewhat
reticent, and is evidently soreiy displeased
at his treatment, hut will lay the matter be
fore the President. He was asked about
the Chinese outrages In the west, and In
Inmates thatit will be his first buslnessitem
on assuming the duties Of his position.
The trip from Chicago interested hin
greatly, the manufacturing interests o.
each place being fully explained to him by
his escort.
Another subject he has under advisement
by request Of the emperor Of China is tn,
