WAITING FOR HYPPOLITE's ELECTION.

Washington, Sept Is (SpeciaD.-" The attitude Of
the United States toward Hayti at the present mo-
mentn said a high official Of the Department of State
to-day, is of passive expectancy. You see,
General Hyppolite is not yet cOnStitutOnally in
vested with the power. We expect, however, that
the Constituent Assembly Will meet not later than
September 25, and II ought not 10 take more than
ten days TO invest him with all the functions Of Gov
ernment. When that IS done and we receive official
notification Of the fact, his recognition by this Gov
eminent will follow in due course Of time. 1t has
always been the policy of the United States 10 rec
ognze In time Of revolution those who assume the
felns OF government This was the policy carried
out when Legitime rose 10 the head of affairs In
Hayti.
There is reason to hope that much good will issue
from Hyppoliles assumption of the reins of govern
ment. He has shown himself to be an able General
according TO Haytian methods of warfare which ara
different from those In Europe, and he is a man ~
much dignity. He is not, perhaps, as a General

FOR A NEW PARTY IN BRITAIN.
Mr. CHAMBERLAIN IN ACCORD WITH LORD
HARRINGTON on THE SUBJECT

London, Sept. 1S.-Spealing at a political meeting
at IIuddersfed last evening, Joseph Chamberlain pre-
dicted thai the alliance between the LberaUnonsts
and Conservatives would continue until the agitation
in favor Of the separation of England and iceland
killed. He thought at the time the alliance
formed, that It meant his sacrificing for long time
many cherished political objects, but he had found
that he had not been called upon to make any sacr
fees. The Government was carrying much Liberal
legislation through Parliament. The Unonist leaders
had learned to work together and to trust each other
He agreed with the suggestion of Lord Harrington
that new National party ought to be G)med
pledged 10 effect internal reforms I'm Great Britain
and Ireland, and whose policy should be the main
tenance of the unity and the Strengthening of the
Empire.
The Gladstonians, said the speaker, are breaking
up. Their centre Of gravity is I'm their tail.
Their head has lost all its directing energy. The
sections Of the Gladstonian party are adopting pO
cal helcses, and favor resistance 10 the law and
socialism. If party was formed its pro
grammc would be as far removed from the new
doctrines Of, the ultra-Radicab from the fossil
Toryism of the past lie was confident that many
Gladstonian would be glad 10 adhere To such new
party which would constitute a strong Parliamentary
power.

Washington, September 1s.-There is nothing

morrow. He was Major Warmers choice for the

Secretary Noble said to-day in regard to the
report that Acting Commissioner Smith had re-

Tanner, namely, requiring the testimony of only

PATRIOTIC ITALIANS TO CELEBRA1E.
TWO DISTINCT PARADEs AND TWO PICNIcs BY
OPPOSING FACTIONS OF THE ITALIAN

The celebration tomorrow by the italians OF this
city and vicinity of the nineteenth anniversary OF
the entry Of the Italian troops into Rome VIII Do
marked by factonal fight which IS the cumlnatlon OF
series of disputes that has divided the Italian cOoy
here into two parties for some months.
The origin Of the trouble IS the rivalry between
the Benevolent Societies Home, of No. 20 Narick
Place which has been in existence for several years
and the Italian Home which was organized fe"
months ago by the ConsulGeneral, G. T. Riva ana
other well-lmown Italians. The adherents of the
first named institution, to the number OF some 4,ooo'
will have a parade and picnic tomorrow. The line
will form in Washington Square at o a. m. and proceed
to the City Hail. where it will be reviewed by proml-
nent officials and thence march TO Peck slip ferry,
whero a boat will be boarded for Suffers Harlem
River Casino. Here the day and good part OF the
night will be spent in merry making. The proceeds
Will go to me Benevolent Societies Home.
The other faction. TO the number of perhaps 6,ooo
will form IN Irving Place at a. m, and thence marcn
10 Fnurth-aye. and mp that thoroIgbfare by the
Murray Hill Hotel, where the ConsulGeneral and
other prominent men will review it, Then tho pro
cession will march 10 Washington Park and JoDcs's
Wood Coliseum where picnic viii be held. 1t IS
expected that about 1000 will be realized and this
will go 10 swell the fund for the home. for which
81 900 has already been collected. The accounts in
several afternoon papers yesterday Of the likeli-
hood that the two paradcs would clash and street
light ensue are of course untrue, as the two lines
will hardly come within a mile OF each other.
Consul Riva last night pronounced false the pub
lshcd statement mat he hal organized the now home
the old one. lie said that the Benevolent societies
Home was much small for the needs of the
Italian colony, and besides there was general dis
satisfaction with its management Therefore new
home was started. The feeling between the two
factions IS bitter and some OF thr friends OF the OH
home have even circulated petition for the recall

TESTING THE CHICAGO AND YORKTOWN.

Newport, Sept Is Special. The steel cruiser Chi:
cagO was tested at slow speed to-day. The York
town also went out. The wind and weather wera
favorable, and fault could be found. The Chi
cagos engines were at the lowest possible speed and
she made four and quarer knots. She went
over the milo course four times. She could not
possibly have been run at a lower rate and tho
test considered satisfactory in every particular.
The Yorktown simply haG her turning trials in order
10 determine her tactical diameter. She was turned
I'm circles easily. and the board was fairly satisfied
with her capacity. Both vessels will manoeuvro
tomorrow, and II IS hoped TO have the Yorktown
