STEAMING TO THE HUB.
TAE ALL-AMRRICAP PARTY NOW EN-
ROUTE TO BOSTON.

The Trip From West Point to New
York Made Down the Hudson on the
Cruiser Yorktown-The Delegates
Talk About the Worlds Fair.
New YORK, Oct. 4-The All-America
excursion party this forenoon inspected the
military academy at West Point, and about
II O'Clock embarked on the cruiser York
town, and sailed for New York. The for
eign visitors were much interested in the
magnificent vessel. which they inspected in
every part under the guidanc of the Off
GERS of the ship. Later in the day they fell
to discussing the proposed worlds fair.
INCLINED TO BE NoN-CoMMITTAL.
Clearly they all appreciate the situation,
and the feeling has ueen ascertained to be
genuine among them that the Americans
should settle the question of the site mong
themselves, and ulinhuenced by the opin-
ions of foreig ers. So clearly is the stu
alton understood among the foreigners that
they will be found reticent TO attempts to
gain pledge for any particular city. Some,
however, are outspOaen.
ONE SPEAKS OUT.
One, the acting minister of his nation to
this country, freely canvassed the su oject
New York city he reg ,rds as the empire
city and the most eligible site for the fair.
Manv of his people could visit New York
who could not or would not go to Chicago
upon the occasion of the worlds far. Liv-
ilg in Washington, in his opiLion, upon the
basis of personal observation, is against it
as worlds fair site. Chicago will grow
and be, in his opinion, highly eligible as the
site for t1e next worlds fair.
SAN FRANCISCO FOR THE THIRD.
So confident is the gentleman of the
growth of the United States that for the
third next worlds fair in America, he
deems San Francisco as a fair candidate
for the honor. the ~ he remarked, "we
wilt come with our people and goods, and
land on the other side of your continent
| believe if New York is chosen the popula
ton of the lited States during the fair
would be swollen TO 7O000.000 20, 900, 900 to
10000, 900 of which would visit the fair"
The official whose views are quoted is
Francisco Silva Of Venezuela, and their
publication is made with his assent. New
York was reached about $3.50 o'clock this
afternoon, and at o'cl ok the party were
transferred to the steamer Puritan and
started for Boston by way Of Long Island
sound.
BLAINE NOT LIKED BY ALL.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 4-Chili and the
Argentine Republic have not, for
tten Secretary Blalne's peculiar South
American policy. They remember the
comm ssion composed of William Henry
Trescott and Walker Blaine, which Secre-
tary Blaine sent down to South America in
the interest of his friends in 1881, and
which Secretary Frelinghuysen, for OBJ
viously good reasons, promptly recalled.
Consequently those countries cannot enter
in entire satisfaction a congress controlled
by Secretary Blaine and of which Mr..
Trescott is a member There is no doubt
that their representatives would have
opposed Trescott for president if Secretary
Blaine had proposed him, as he (Blaine)
had planned.
BLAINE's RIGHT TO PRESIDE QUESTIONED.
The Chilian minister says it is not true,
as reported, that he opposed Secretary
Blaine; but he admits that the delegate
fro II the Argentine Republic did question
Secretary Blaine's right to preside over a
congress of which he was not a member,
and he es not attempt to saw that Secre-
| tary Blaine's election was agreeable to him.
| He states very positively that the repre-
| sentatives {. ON Chilli and the Argentine Re-
| public have no intention of Withdrawing
| from the conference, but cannot say that
they expect much fro d it. AS matter OF
fact it is recognized that very little can be
expected of the co gress, the views of The
| North and South Americans being so di-
verse. Secretary Blaine wishes it under
| stood that thu congress will take q trip
| through the south ia January. 1t was
postponed at the suggestion of Delegate
Hanson of Georgia.
