| LONDON, July 10.-The address of the
municipality of the city of London was
| presented to the emperor in splendid
gold casket, richly enameled and-ornament-
ed with precious stones. The designs on
the casket embodied features illustrative
of the relations existing between England
and Germany. On the cover of the casket
are displayed views of the different his
toric parts of the city, and in their center
is the crest of the city of London, with
central figure representing the city. This
| center piece is surrounded with German
eagles. Under the center canopy, in the
| body of the casket, are the imperial
| arms in full blazon. Canopied figures
ornament the sides of this casket
and show out prettily against the blue
enamel. The body of the casket is sup
ported upon four open arches, one on each
side, and at each corner of the casket are
grif6ns holding the arms of the city of
London. The eyes of the griffins are fine
diamonds and the cross in the imperial
arms is also composed of diamonds. The
whole framework of the city of London's
gift is Of 1S-karat gold. The lord mayor
the address to tlAimperial guest of the
municipality, bowling deeply as he did so.
A number of the most distinguished city
officials and others were then presented to
the German emperor. After these cere-
| monies the procession was reformed and
proceeded in solemn state to the great
hall of the Guild, where most sumptuoas
spread was served.
IN THE BANQUET HALL.
The emperor led the way into the ban
quet hall, having upon his arm the lady
mayoress Lady Savoy. They were fol-
lowed by the lord mayor and the empress
of Germany, the prince and princess of
Wales and the other members of the royal
family who graced the occasion with their
paesence. When the city's guests had been
refreshed formal speeches of welcome were
exchanged over the wine. At $3.50 p. m.
the journey back to Buckingham and
palaces was begun by way of the Thames
embankment. On the way to the en-
bankment at Ludgate circus, where the
rougher element of the city was packed in
all the numerous thoroughfares branching
into that much frequented center, there
were somewhat exciting incidents. 1t was
understood that the rowdy element had
prepared a lively reception for the prince
of Wales, so that the carriage containing
him and his wife was driven more rapidly
than the gait of the rest of the procession
and had passed the dangerous spot before
the main body of the crowd was aware
that the prince was in their midst.
THE PRINCE JEERED.
AS it was, however, in spite of the pres
ence OF the princess of Wales beside him,
the prince was greeted with repeated out
bursts Of jeering and "boorings," which
were only slightly set off by few faint
cheers. In the face of this hostile demon
stration the prince of Wales, apparently
unmoved, looked straight ahead This re-
ception was in strong contrast to the
! hearty, ringing cheers which greeted the
| duke Of Connaught, the Princes brother,
| by the Ludgate circus crowd as he pass
ed over the same ground.
When the procession was on its way
back to Buckingham palace and Marlbor-
| ough house the main body of American
| sightseers gathered at the windows of the
| big American" hotels along the Thames
| fair.
This has been, to all intents and pur-
poses, full days holiday in London, and
| tomorrow will be a second holiday, on
| account of the great review of 10000 vol
unteers and regulars. Many arrests were
made to-day but the German societies and
| the French anarchist element was appar-
emily absent or subdued into state OF pas
sive submission by the warnings sent out
by the police to the effect that any anarch
| istic or socialistic outbreak would be m ost
severely dealt with and remembered against
| the agitators in the future.
| THE BALL AT BUCKINGHAM.
| The state ball opened with a quadrille,
in which only royal personages took part.
| The princess of Wales wore gold col
ored gown trimmed with gold fringe,
with lace train and draped with gold
| spangled tulle. On her head she had a
tiara of diamonds, and her ornaments
were pearls and diamonds. Black gowns
resplendent with diamonds were much
worn. The younger ladies favored white
or pale blue.
The emperor after banqu citing with the
duke of Cambridge at Gloucester house,
finished the day at the state ball at Buck
ingham palace. The duke of Cambridge's
dinner was largely military and naval
affair. Everybody was in the uniform of
some branch of the government services,
excepting Lord Salisbury, Mr.. W.. H.
Smith and other ministers, who were in
court dress. The emperor, in short speech,
made franker reference to the hopes OF
the alliance in England arising from his
cordial public welcome in this city than
probably Lord Salisbury liked to hear.
Only an echo of the imperial words has yet
