and chatted over the great possibilities
and the probable good work of the
committees undertaking. One after
mother of the senator's friends called,
and all were in turn afforded that
''golden btu of his good company.
1t was left for the evening, however,
to environ the most
NOTABLE PRIVATE GATHERING
| which has been seen at the Ryan, or, in
fact, any other place, for a long time.
AS the GLOBE representative was eX-
tended jovial ''hello" and cordial wei
come in response to his call by Senator
Stewart himself, the company into
which he he had unconSciouSly intruded
| was one that would have urged
comment from the dead. In the center
and against the wall sat the senator
from Nevada, his face beaming with
the interest and delight of his company.
TO his left sat the sage Of Nininger, lg-
natius Dounelly, the butcher of Shake
SpC are and the prOpOunder of the I'M
fathomable process of preserving to i'm
mortality the portions of Bacon; just
across, that famous and clever word
painter, Joaquin Miller, whose poems
have stirred the hearts of rocks; to his
right, sat reclining in an old arm chair
Judge Hall, numbered with the most
learned iurists. There they sat, chat
ting and telling each other of things in
the most musical manner, arguing on
the depths of mind-reading and the why's
and wberefores of the most profound
subiectS-subjects before which the
average conversationaliSt would shrink
in horrible fear and conscious incom-
patbility. Mr.. Donnelly's wit, Senator
Stewards anecdotes, Joaquin Miller's
poetical strain and lofty themes, and
the judges sedate appreciation of
truths and causes, effects and natural
law of things, was, taken together, as it
were, cloud of mixed sunshine, whose
brilliancy shed forth impressive rays of
noble thought and tart, brilliant speech.
While this
GALAXY OF GENIUS AND TALENT
held conclave, the door was repeatedly
raped, and another distinguished per-
sonage entered and became one of the in
teresting body. Judges Flandreau and
Wilkln succeeded joaquin Miller and
Mr. Donnelly. and so the chain of the
evenings sociability dropped link and
took up new ones, only to weave
chain of richer and brighter commun-
ion as the evening wore on. Id appear
ance Senator Stewart is a tall, portly
gentleman, with digniied bearing and
frank, winning countenance. The
hearty grasp of his hand is the symbol
respect for all. His hair and
full and ruddy, and his manner
is his entree into the confidence
of him whom he meets. Col. Richard j.
Hinton and Secretary Davis are inval-
liable servants of such party, and able
and efficient promoters of the scheme
on hand. A more genial, obliging and
brilliant pair of men are not with the
horde. The party is equipped with
stationery, typewriter, books, maps.
guides, histories and all sorts of acces-
series for an extensive campaign in
which much will be noted and written
of the great countries to be traversed.
When Senator Reagan arrives to-day
another meeting will be held with the
Dakota gentlemen. Secretary Tai
madge, of the chamber of commerce, is
anxious and ready to extend any atten-
ton necessary or pleasurabfe the party
may care to avail itself of.
BOUND FOR WINNIPEG.
The Chicago Chief OF Police Is En-
Route After Burke, the Sus-
pect.
Chief of Police Hubbard. of Chicago,
arrived in the city yesterday afternoon,
and secretly made his way to the Mer-
chants hotel, where he engaged room
but did not register. He deity man

his principal place of resort. While
lunching he was cOrnered by lodging

1t was evident from few words mad
vertenlly dropped in his tea cup. that
the chief was on his way to Win
nipeg. He refused to state on
what business he was bent. or
whittier he was going, but it is
presumed that his trip to Canada is in
behalf of the Cronin murder case. The
man Burke, who is held by the Winni-
peg authorities, was subject on which
Mr.. Hubbard had nothing to say what
ever. He quietly left the hotel before
supper and took the Manitoba train for
st. Vincent. Detective Ross, of the
Chicago force, joined him at the sta
ton, and several Chicago reporters were
found lodging about the pair. 1t is
well enough known that Hubbard will
bring Burke back with him, and 1t is
said that he has disguised force with
him large enough to Illustrate any at
tempt at a rescue of Burke en- route.
