GRINNED AT THE SHAH.

Residents of London Make Merry over His
Appearance-Salisbury Bantered.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
LONDON, July3.-Whatever could be done
by British officials to make the reception of
the Shah In London memorable was done.
and so far as the authorities are concerned
the Shah has nothing to complain of. But
If his treatment by the London populace
was not entirely satisfactory to him he pos
sesses the one virtue, at least, of being east
ly pleased. The progress of the Shah to
the Guild Hall to-day excited among the
throngs which lined the streets along the
route no loftier sensations than visibility.
There was no cheering, no words of well
come, no enthusiasm, nothing but broad
grlns, and the further along his Imperial
hlghness proceeded the broader the grins
monarch. his dress. his beard. his features
and his snite, was fair game for the sight
seers. and every little popularity was seized
upon for jocular comment.
SO far as the decorations are concerned
along the line of march, there were very
few. indeed, to be observed, apart from
those upon the public edifices Upon these,
IL is true. no pains OF expense was spared

sympathy with the Shah's reception goes,
it can very well be gauged by the loud
complaints that rose from all quarters be-
fore the show began against the suspension
OF traffic on some of the principal streets
which il would enforce. And so deep was
the feeling among the business community
that many of them are growing vet
Lord and Lady Salisbury were late in
starting for Guild Hall, and discovered on
reaching the stand that the Shah had
already passed along the thorOughfare.
The troops had already drawn up in line.
and the crowds of people were roaming
around at will. Owing to the dense crow DIS,
Lord salisbury's carriage proceeded very
for some time. Finally the crowd recog-
nized his Lordship. and they bantered him.
until finally the troops were obliged to
come to the rescue and escort him to the
hall. The police on duty at the entrance
stopped several delegates who were follow
ing the Premier, and would not allow them
to enter until they had explained who
they were.

Two Hundred Miners Killed In Coal Pit at
St Etienne, France.
PARIS, July 3-An explosion of fire. damp
occurred in coal-pit at st. Etienne to-day.
Over two hundred miners were killed. Two
pits were affected by the explosion. One of
them Is inundated; the other is on fire.
Sixteen bodies have been recovered.
Ten of the miners who were taken out
alive are so badly injured that they will
probably die. Sixty horses employed in
the mine were burned to death.
The news of the disaster spread quickly,
and the mouths of the pits were soon sur
rounded by crowds of relatives and friends
of the imprisoned miners. Many heart
rending scenes were witnessed as the bodies
were brought to the surface. There is no
hope of rescuing any of the men now in the
pits, all of whom have already probably
perished.

Odds Offered on Sullivan-Schemers Who Are
Anxious to Attend the Fight.
NEW ORLEANS, July S.-As the battlsdraws
near the excitement becomes more intense,
and thousands of people express themselves
as being anxious to 60 TO the scene OF the
mill, no matter where it takes place. En-
thusiasts engaged in business are already
laying the foundation for excuses to go. Sick
headache, stomach troubles, etc., are fire.
quent, and shrewd guessers lay all these
complaints to a desire to see the hight on
Monday. Betting on the result was not
very lively to-day, there being plenty of
Sullivan money, but little kilrain money
in sight. The Kilraln men are hold
ing back for the advent of the book-makers
and knowing ones who are expected in
to-day. One bet of $500 to $3.50 on Sullivan
was placed to-day, and bets of 500 to $40
and 800 to $50 on Sullivan were offered.
but found no takers. The Sullivan men
are not offering these odds because they
underrate Kilrain, but because the latter's
friends are shy just now. One friend OF
Kilrain said: "It would be impossible for
o man fed on Boston baked beans TO get
away with man fed on canvas back ducks
and Chesapeake oysters" and laid q small
wager on his opinion.
Prof. Butler will have charge Of the ring
police, who will number 200 men. They are
to be sworn in on Sunday next at the Office
of the Spirit of the South. The managers
of the fight give assurance that the utmost
order Will be maintained. A special train
left over the Queen & Crescent line to-
day, having as passengers the managers
and friends of the two sluggers, and they
did not return until late In the night.
The Young Mems Gymnastic Club held
meeting tonight to arrange for the recep-
tion of Sullivan, who will reach here to-
morrow. He will be met at the depot by a
large delegation of officers and most promi
nent members and be driven TO the club
rooms, where the champion will be well
coined In as qulet manner as possible.
After that he will be taken TO his quarters
at Spanish Fort. Three rooms hare been
trainers They connect with each other by
doors, and are comfortably furnished.
The Southern Athletic Club will receive
Kilrain, and large delegation will 60 out
on a special train to meet him and party
on Friday. Kilrain and party will embark
on q special train at the meeting point, and
come to the city, where carriages Will take
all to the club-rooms. where quarters have
been prepared for him.
1t is curious thing to note the sudden
faith that has sprung up in the curative
waters of Ablta Springs, and the desire that
has suddenly seized great number of pee

the canal in the San Juan river for sixty
miles along the Costa Rica boundary This
