MIR. AND MRS. CLEVELAND,
They Hold a Reception After the De-
parture of President and Mrs. Harrison.

New YORK, April 30.-An odd and interest
ing feature of the great inaugural ball was the
reception rendered to ex-President and Mrs.
Cleveland, after the departure of President
Harrison, about midnight. The Clevelands
had occupied a box near the President during
the reception and the opening quadrille.
After the departure of the President and Mrs.
Harrison, Mr.. and Mrs. Cleveland came down
to the floor to promenade. No sooner did the
crowd catch sight of them than they were sur
rounded with people, as anxious to see Mrs.
Cleveland apparently as they had been when
she a White House bride Some one started
the applause. 1t grew until with a cheer the
entire crowd swept down on the Clevelands,
forcing them against the boxes. At this mo-
ment some one in an upper box broke bou-
quet and showered roses on Mrs. Cleveland's
head. The crowd cheered again and again.
For quite time Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland held
a reception on the floor of the ball room, and
during that time they we're the center of at

THE VIENNA STRIKES.
The Victory of the Tram-Car Men May
Lead to Important Results.

LONDON, April 30.-Leaders of trades-union
and agitators all over Europe feel greatly en-
couraged at the result OF the Vienna tram
victory for the men, and the end
may produce serious consequences in other
cities. In itself it seems of trivial importance
and of only local interest, but the attention
given TO it in Paris London, and other large
cities prove how it is regarded both by the
labor question is a problem which the old
world will be called upon to solve at no distant
day.
A PROTEST FROM BERLIN.
A dispatch from trustworthy source
states that protest was sent from the
highest authority in Berlin to Premier
Won Taafe demonstrating against yield
ing TO the strikers after the municipality h id
engaged in personal conflict to call the mill
tary to the aid of the beaten police.
The list of injured on either side shows the
violence of the struggle. Nearly all of the
strikers and their supporters are old soldiers,
and are not easily daunted by
DISPLAY OF FORCES.
Count Won Taafe telegraphed in return that
he would reply by mail. but the tenor of his
explanation is confidently stated that he had
acted by his emperor orders Since the death
of the crown prince the condition of the Aus
trian monarch has excited the solicitude of his
physicians, the illness of the empress adding
much also to the depression of his mind.
THE CONFLICTS IN THE STREETS
of the metropolis troubled him so much that he
issued orders to have the disturbance stopped
at any cost. His recent Affections prompted
him to take the part of the weaker side, and
the tramway companies were commanded to
compromise with their employees on favorable
terms to the latter and to pay $4,000 forins
forfeit.
The mob naturally refreshed themselves at
the expense of the liquor dealers during the
tumult, gratifying their anti-Semitic prejudices
by making especial victims of the Jewish deal
ers in beer and spirits.

ATLANTA, Ga, April 30.-The Georgia Bap-

spirited discussion, recommended the Kind
Words Sunday school paper of the Southern

and refused TO recommend those of the Ameri-

mum and He May Not

The news of the death Of Chairman Barnum.
of the democratic national committee, was
known to but few persons in this city this af-
ternoon, and they gained their information from
aSTARreporter. Senator German the only mem
Der of the committee who resides in the vicinity,
was out at his farm at LAUREL so no information
as to Mr.. Barnum's probable successor could be
secured from him. A few of the politicians
who remained in town said they thought it
almost certain that Senator German would be
the committees choice.
Senator Pugh, of Alabama. told STAR re-
porter that Senator Germans succession was
by no means n certainty. There are"
said he. "a good many material mat
tiers to be discussed before new
chairman is elected. He's got to be a
good man and acceptable to the great majority
OF the democratic party. How would you like
