and palms. Over the organ were draped
in evergreens large curtains OF black
crepe and white fabric, with bits OF ivy
here and there at every interse ction OF
the folds. On the back wall between
the two entrance doors was semi

large silken American flags hung on

Mrs. Harrison is no more. At lao
a. m, Tuesday. came the end. For the
second time in the history OF the White
House Presidents wife has died within
its walls. Mrs. Harrison met death
with the patience and resignation OF n
devout Christian. and her last days
were comparatively free from pain. 1t
could hardly be said that the patient
was unconscious duiing the evening
hours, for she betrayed some signs OF
understanding the attempts made to re-
lieve her last moments by partially
opening her lparched lips to receive the
stimulating fluid applied to them
from time to time. But not a drop
could she swallow, and the power OF
speech had apparently left her frame
forever. In addition the PHYSICIANS
experienced eye noted as the evening
wore on an increase in the difficulty OF
breathing, which was regarded as an
ominous sign. At last the end came,
and surrounding the bedside OF the
loved one were all the members OF the
family in Washington. For a few mo-
ments the silent watchers were over
whelmed with grief. When they emerged
from the room, the President retired to
his own chamber, and was alone with
his great bereavement.

dent thinks, that function, if any, remains

Office.
In conclusion, the President says he is
inclined to believe if the provisions were
made as in Section 1868, Revised Statutes,
relating to claims in other departments,
Tor the transfer to the proper court under
proper regulations, of certain contest
cases, involving questions affecting large
classes of claims, it would be a relief to
the land office, and would tend to a more
speedy adjustment of land titles, result
which would be to the interest of all peo-
pie. Nothing is more advantageous to
the community, its progress and peace
than unsettled land titles. The bill, how
ever, is so radical and so indefinite in its
provision that the President cannot APP

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.--The Peace
Committee of ten members of the
House on the Worlds Fair matter
met this morning and as the hours
progressed the statement Of those
who came out of the conference was
that an agreement would probably be
reached. About o'clock the following
| basis was agreed upon: The House to
reconsider its action OH the sundry civil
bill, by which it agreed to the Sen
ate amendment appropriating So 5000, 0O0
for the Worlds Fair, and the bill was sent
back to conference with the understand
ing that it shall be eliminated from the
bill; the Durburow Worlds Fair bill shall
be taken up and shall be voted on Satur-
day, the amount carried by the bill, how
ever, to be reduced from S., 000, 900 to 81
500, 600, and to make it direct gift. The
committee simply submits an agreement
to the caucus, and the members are not
bound to vote in favor of the Durburow
bill. They merely agree, if the caucus
adopts the proposition, not TO filibuster
against it.
At $3.50 o'clock three-fourths of the
House adopted without division the re-
port of the Worlds Fair Peace Commit
tee, with verbal amendment. The I'M
derstanding is that the Rules Committee
will report an order in the morning for
final action on the sundry civil bill, after
which the Durburow bill will be taken
up.
The adoption of the report was unani-
nous, but at least half dozen members
were not in the caucus, and refused to be
bound by it. Three OF these are Kilgore,
Bailey aud Anthony eff Texas. McGiann
and Durburow also refused to remain in
sentiment in favor of the resolutions was
SO overwhelming that the tilibusterers
cannot do ANYTHING against it.

CHICAGO, Aug. 3.-The refusal of Judge
Horton to grant divorce to Mrs. Carrie
D. Fetch, or Miss Demar, as she is known
on the stage, has brought out an interest
ing romance. The story is told in a letter
which Mr.. Felch addressed to his wife
and which was made the basis of the di-
vorce suit. 1t was long years ago he had
met his true love, but the course of their
affections was broken and the fortunes of
their profession forced them apart. They
ceased writing letters. and finally, after
he had mourned for her as one of the
lost, he met Miss Demar. He fancied he
loved her and they were married. A
week later he received letter from his
first flame. She had been i'll and was
now returning from Australia to meet
him. Accidentally they saw each other
in San Francisco. All the old affection
returned, and, of course, he wanted a
separation from Miss Demar Judge
Horton considered the story very pretty
one but refused a divorce

PALos, Aug. 3.-This is the four hun
dredth anniversary day on which Column
bus set sail from Palos westward on his
voyage of discovery. The programme of
festivities arranged here for celebrating
the day was carried out with great eclat.
The view from the town, however, was
obscured by thick mist, which hung
over the river, and rendered it impossible
to see more than the dim outline of the
bulls of the vessels lyinff at anchor. At
6 o'clock-the hour at which Columbus
began his voyage = the caravel Santa
Maria, constructed IN imitation of the
vessel OF that name belonging to the
Columbus expedition, which had been
lying off the shore all night, set her sails
for her passage through the lines of war
ships anchored outside the bar, but,
owing to the prevalence of dead calm,
line was run to her from the gunboat.
and she was tOWed down stream, fol-
lowed by the Spanish hotilla in single
file. Minister of Marine Montigo was on
board the warship Legaspi. The voyage
down the river to the bar past the Mon
astery of Larabida, on which building
flags Of all the American States were fly
ing, occupied about one hour. Outside
the bar were moored the vessels of the
foreign squadrons which had come to
take part in the celebration. These YES
sells formed in lines between which the
caravel passed amid laundering salutes
ana deafening cheers.
The mist and smoke from the guns
made 1t impossible to watch the maneu-
vers of the caravel, which followed some
distance the route taken by Columbus
100 years ago.

Huelva was crowded with visitors. all the
buildings, both private and public, being
gayly decorated.
Fifteen of the Spanish fiotilIa con-
veyed the Santa Maria several miles to
sea, and when the signal was given by
the Spanish Minister of Marine for the
vessels to return, the caravan was given
a farewell salute.
MESSAGES OF GREETING.
WAsHINGToN Aug. 3.-The following
cable messages were exchanged to-day:

The President: To-day, four hundred
years ago, Columbus sailed from Palos,
discovering America. The United States
flag is being hoisted this moment in front
of the Convent la Rabida, along with

panied by enthusiastic acclamations of the
people, the army and the navy. God

LAND PATENT CASES.

Concerning Them.

Concerning Them.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.-The President,
in vetoipg the bill comforting on the
Court of Claims jurisdiction in patent
land cases, says in part that the work of
the Land Office the past three years has
been so efficient that the large accumula-
ton has been swept away and the office
is now engaged on current business. 1t
seems to the President that 10 transfer in
whole or part of this business to the
courts, some OF whose docketS are al
ready loaded, cannot tend to expedition.
While 1T is manifest that by reason of
greater formality in the taking and pre-
sentation OF evidence required in court,
and the long distance settlers would have
to travel, the costs would be enormously
increased.
AS to the concurrent jurisdiction given
the District Court of Claims the President
says it is doubtful whether Territorial
Courts are DISTRICT Courts within the
meaning of the bill. If they are held not
TO be such the effect of this legislation
would be that all suits from the Terri
tories must come to Washington. The
nlaintiff, it viii be observed by the Act.
is also given the option to sue in District
Courts, or the Court of Claims. The
President cannot understand why the
nlaintiff should have this advantage, one

other law fixing the form of litigation be-
tween individuals. Not only this, but
