MEMPHIS, Tenn. May l2-At noon. with i'm

the Mississippi river was formally declared open

cluded distinguished visitors, both state aud
national, from this ami adjoining states. The
day was observed as a holiday and the city was
in gala attire. The man-of-war Concord and
river crafts OF all kinds were covered with

He began with an eloquent reference to the
enduring Importance OF this event, dealing
chiefly with the subjects natural TO such an
occasion; the wisdom, patriotism and foresight
OF Jefferson in acquiring Louisiana: the glori-

The Memphis bridge is the third largest OF

six piers, including anchorage piers. There is
total length of 1887 feet in the bridge proper.
The structure is extended west from the main

Archbishop Ireland's Victory.

New YORK. May 12-While the full text OF
the Vatican deIverance on the Faribault school
plan gives both sides in the controversy an ap-
parent concession, the opponents OF Archbishop
Ireland maintain that the gist OF the decision
is entirely in their favor. This is the view
Archbishop Corrlgau takes OF 1t. He says:
The deliverance of the Vatican puts an end
deciding against Archbishop Ireland. You will
notice that the deliverauce says, without dero-
eating from the DEGREES OF the councils OF Balti-
more on the parochial schools at Faribauit and
saltwater, that taking into consideration all
the circumstances they Can be tolerated. The
new DEGREES of the council OF Baltimore con-
cerning parochial schools explicitly declare
that wherever possible every parish must main
tain such school,, and such churches as did
not have them were instructed TO build them
within three years. The deliverance upholds
and Endorses this decree which is in opposition
to the Faribaut plan. II the plan had been ill.,
dorsed by the holy or full permission
granted, 1t might be adopted elsewhere in the
country. As it is, it cannot be put in use any
where, except in this way, that is, by securing Il
location Tor special case in exception to the
general rule. That makes the purport OF the
deiiyerance very clear, and leaves no doubt rs to
the position OF the holy church on the question.
ROME, May 12.-The letter of the propaganda

Victoria, May 12.-[Special. 1-Rumors
which have been rife for some time in re-
gard to the questionable financiering of
Frederick c. Walker eliminated this morn
ing in his appearance in the police court
on the charge Of Incorporating So, 600
committed to him for investment by II. Z.
Clinton, of New Westminster. Walker is
one of the most prominet lawyers in the
province, and son-in-law of Hon. Justice
Crease, of the supreme bench. For years
past he has been leader in society and
entertained like prince in a palatal
home. 1t now appears that other peoples
money was paid for many of the handsome
entertainments for which he had been
famous.
No sooner had the original charge been
laid than the supreme court was deluged
with applications for leave to sign judg-
ments for moneys due on promissory
notes, on account Of covenants held in
trust or otherwise retained by the
embarrassed barrister. It is esti-
mated that the shortage will reach fully
500, Whether Walker will be able
to clear his skirts of the faint Of criminal
ity is doubtful. Judge Crease and his
family, who are among the most honored
and esteemed residents of the province,
feel Walkers position keenly, and they
have the sympathy of the community.
The names OF the judge and Hon.
c. E. Policy appear on the bail
bond on which Walker secured his release
this evening on an eight days. remand of
the case. The amount of the bond is
$4,000. Pending the result Of the case
Walker has been suspended from the So
ciety of which he was a member. The
case is the all-absorbing topic of converse
ton, even the sealing question being for
the hour forgotten.

Democratic Politicians Puzzled as to

Democratic Politicians Puzzled as to
Outcome OF the Chicago Convention.
WASHINGTON CITY, May 12.-[Special. l.
The most astute politicians in the Demo-
cratic party are entirely at sea as to the
outcome of the Chicago convention. A
good many in Washington City believe
that there is something in the rumor that
Cleveland will yet withdraw from the con-
test for the reason that he does not be-
lieve that either himself or Hill, if nomi-
mated, could carry New York. There are
some who maintain that letter will be
forthcoming from the ex-president
within a few days, refusing to permit
his friends to present his name as a candi-
date at Chicago. In the event that he does
this 1t is expected that he will do his
best to name the candidate, but whether
he will be successful in any attempt Of
this kind is very uncertain. The rumor
that comes from Ohio that the ex-presi-
dent, if he finds it will be policy to with
draw from the race, has decided to throw
his strength to Ex-Governor Campbell, is
not believed to be true in Washington
City.
There are many who maintain that if he
does pull out of the race ex-Secretary
Whitney will be his choice for an Eastern
candidate, and if it is found to be impos-
sible to select an Eastern man it is thought
more probable that he will use his in
huence to have Senator Villas, of Wiscon-
sin, placed at the head Of the ticket. 1t is
probable that he will be unsuccessful in
trying to nominate Villas, owing to the
fact that the Wisconsin senator has so
many enemies among the politicians of his
party and that their opposition would be
so bitter that no strength could be thrown
to him in the convention.
Hill is still in the field and may be in
the fight at the finish, and although it is
not considered now that he can be nomi-
mated this year, he may be more able to
manipulate the convention in the interest
of some other candidate than Cleveland.
He is very much more clever in putting
up political combinations than the ex-
president and has also been more success
full in matters of this kind than Cleveland
or any Of his lieutenants. There is bound
to be pretty fight at Chicago, no matter
who may be the candidate that is finally
selected.

SUIT FOR WRIT OF RESTITUTION.
George johnson Con victcd OF Attempted

Arraigned in Court.

| Robert M. Longstaff and his wife brought
mit yesterday in the superior court against
the Madison Street Cable Railway Com
pany to recover strip of ground constl-
Ituting a portion of the premises upon
hich the power-house of the defendant
atands. The plaintiffs allege that they
lhold title to the property through patent

The strip in question is 342 feet long and
!eight feet deep, lying just south of Madi-
son street, and is covered by the front end

! the time the building was erected the title
to the land was in Daniel Baglev. By him

who made deed of it to Mrs. Longstaff.
The company claims that the title to the
strip in dispute passed to it along with the
rest of the property on which their build

the man who decided it the company never
had title to it, and included it in his deed
without having legal right to do so. The

The LOss Of the Shin Lincoln.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 12.-Captain Daily, OF the
ship w. II. Lincoln, arrived today on the Mari
posa TIE Lincoln was consigned from the
Sound to sydney, with l,270,C01 feet Of lumber.
She had unloaded perhaps two-tnirds of this
when the stevedores undertook to dictate to
Captain Daily. The captain discharged every
one OF them and hired new men. That night
the ship caught fire. The blaze started aft be-
tween decks Nothing was stored there except
duplicate set of sails. The fire companies
could not save the Lincoln from total destruc-
ton along with the rest of her cargo,
SO Captain Daily had her scuttled. There
was $4,000 in insurance to collect, and
much freight to get money for. 1t was on Janu-
AIRY when the ship burned and so slow were
the courts, the captain says, that he was not
able to get through with his business and get
away until the Mariposa sailed in April. 81

MEETING OF THE PARK BOARD.
Arrangement OF Details With New Su.

pcrintendent.
A special meeting of the board Of park
commissioners was held last night,
Messrs. w. E. Burgess, c. N. Evans. Abb
ram Barker and b. Z. Bennett were pres
ent, together with Superintendent
Schwagerl. The object was to hear sug-
gestions from the superintendent as to
the course to be pursued.
One of the difficulties is that the pres
ent arrangement by which the men are
hired by the day prevents their being re-
quired to begin work early enough in the
morning. 1t is necessary to have some
there as early as 5 o'clock and later than
o'clock. At present they begin at and
leave off at 4:3o. When the planting is
all done one man and a boy will be suth-
cient at the nursery.
Mr.. Schwagerl also thought it would be a
good plan and a measure of economy to
own team instead of hiring. A team
and wagon would cost about $500, hiring
cost S. day.
1t was resolved to apply to the police
board for their aid in extending police sur
Vigilance to the parks; and the suggestions
of the superintendent as to the employ
ment of help were approved. He will re-
port at the next meeting the number of
men wanted and the rate of pay.
1t was also agreed to invite the mayor
and city council to make an inspection Of
the parks with the commissioners on
Tuesday next, starting from the rooms in
the Bailey building at 1 o'clock.

The recent burning of the Greenleaf
hotel at Port Angeles shows how the most
careful precautions of men are often frus-
trated by nature. Water pipes with 100
pounds pressure were laid to the hotel,
with a hydrant at one corner, but about
an hour before the fire broke out tree
was blown across the road and broke the
water pipe, thus cutting off the supply.
The building burned very slowly, for the
fire broke out first in the roof and gradu-
ally spread, taking three hours to devour
the whole hotel. The insurance was IS. $50,
divided among the Home of Seattle, the
Royal, the Hamburg Bremen, the Union
of San Francisco and the Home Mutual.

SACRAMENTO, Cal, May 12.-The death
on Tuesday morning of George W. Metlar

ness.
George W. Metlar was born in Pennington, n.

and spent much of his subsequent life in Phila.
delphia, where he became the intimate friend of
Anthony J. DreXel, George w. Childs, Edwin

nence. Among his most intimate friends was
Henry Clay. and a few hours before Metlars
death he seemed to be oommuning in spirit
with his old friend In the early SOS deceased

ment at this end OF the line Of the Vanderbilt
company's steamers, in connection with C. K.
Garrison. He remained for several years, dur.
ing which time he was frequent contributor

descriptive articles were widely copied. Just
before the war OF the rebellion he returned East,
and under Lincoln's frs: administration was ap-
pointed chief draughtsman in the United States
patent Office, position he held for fourteen
years About three years ago he returned to the
Coast, and has since then resided in Washing
