In the Center and Senator Voorhees,
Predicts New March of Empire.
MEMPHIS, May 13.-In 1872 after he had
gazed on the greatest river in the world,
the body of fernando de Soto was lowered
beneath its waves by his band of intrepid
followers. One hundred years ago the
Spanish Captain Gaozo met a band of
Chickass W Indians near the same spot and
fought desperate battle. Twenty mine
years ago the Federal ironclads met the
Confederate gunboats at the foot of this
historic tluff-the Chickasaw-and strug-
gle ensued which ended in the sinking of
the Confederate fleet.
This Is the Age of Utility.
Yesterday, on the spot where De Soto
died, where the heroic Gaozo met the bravest
OF the Indians and defeated them, over
looking the river where the sons of the
north and south struggled, thousands of
people listened to the eloquent Grafton Of
Senator voorhees,, and gazed on a struc-
ture that begins at the Chickasaw bluffs
and stretches across the Mississippi into
Arkansas
The Governors Meet on the Bridge.
The great bridge was formally opened
yesterday in the presence of one of the
largest crowds Of people that ever assem-
bled In any city of the south, and when
the governor of Arkansas walked from his
end and met the governor of Tennessee on
the center span of the bridge, what "the
governor of Arkansas said to the gov
ernor of Tennessee" will be never be
known, for at that moment a wild shout
went up from the threats of the spectators
and guns from the Concord, and those on
the shore Tired a national salute.
Procession Four Miles Long.
AT O'Clock a procession four miles long
was formed on Main street. At o'clock
the head of the procession reached the
bridge. Chief Morrison then ran eighteen
locomotives across the bridge. When the
locomotives were withdrawn Governor
Eagle and Governor Buchanan met on the
center Of the bridge and from there walked
arm in arm to the Tennessee shore, where
the speaking took place. Bishop Galloway,

He Eloquently Eulogizes the Southland
Facts About the Bridge.
The speech of the day was made by
Senator Daniel w. VOORHEES, of Indiana,
who was introduced by John r. Goodwin
and was greeted with enthusiasm as he
arose. He began with a eulogy of the
event which had called the assembly to-
gether, con trasting the purposes for which
such works were constructed in Caesars
time and now-the one for war, the other
for commerce. He traced the history of
the Mississ ippi valley, and enlogized Jeffer-
son whose policy in 1903, he said was the
foreunner Of the annexation of Texas, and
suggested that great statue of Jeffer-
son be placed at the west end of the
bridge
Resurrection of the South.
The speaker then devoted his speech to
the resurrection of the south. He warmly
eulogized the southern people who had, he
said, caused the calsmities and curses of
war to become the foremost blessing of
peace" They had risen superior to "the
most unjust and injurious system of ma
tional legislation that ever cursed peo-
pie, not excepting English law for Ireland:
and that system, in its day called srecon-
struction, with all its proclamations, mill
tary orders and edicts of unconstitutional
ussrpations, has totally perished leaving
only its memory, despised alike through
out the north as it is throughout the
south
Recognizes No New South"
He spoke not of a new south; it was tn e
old south I'll at was moving in connection
with the rev olution that had taken place:
the old blood and brain power of the
south, tran smitted from generation to
generation, were now reused and working
out the problem Of her splendid destiny.
The old south was young again; she had
renewed her mighty youth, and henceforth
she would tower in her pride of place re-
CARELESS of the housing owls that might
boot at and seek to destroy her.
A Frophesy of Conquest.
"The march Of the empire is here" con-
tinued the orator; "the empire of Christian
civilization, of agricultural wealth, of di-
versifed labor, of human well-being, re-
pose and happiness. The generations of
the future will behold this march of en-
pire next towards the Isthmus of Darien:
winning its way and scattering the bless
ings of liberty, peace and justice as it
moves on. Already, in fact, American
empire is far on its way in that direction.

History of the Structure.
At the close of Voorhees, remarks the
bridge was thrown open to the public, and
thousands crowded on il, passing from
Tennessee to Arkansas and tacl The
bridge was suggested three generations
ego by Hon. John C. Calhoun. Before the
war a company was formed to build the
bridge, but the war killed the company.
1t has been finally built by the Kansas
City, Memphis and Birmingham Railway
company, which will at once commence
using it, the first regular train to cross
over being their Kansas City fast express.
George w. Morrison, Of Chicago, was the
civil engineer in charge Of the work.

The Constitutional Question as to Lay
Representation-No New Bishops.
OMAHA, May 13.-The Methodist confer.
ence yesterday under the craftsmanship OF
Bishop Newman continued the discussion
OF the report Of the constitutional com.
mission, DR.. Goucher speaking for his
proposition to legalize lay representation
as 1t was established by the conference
of 1872. Judge Lawrence, of Ohio, offered a
resolution declaring that the action of the
conference of 1905, the act of 1868 and the
law of 1872 relating to laymen are portions
of the organic law. An apparently inter.
minable debate was shut off by the pre-
vious question, and DR.. Goucher's PROPOSE.
ton was adopted. The second section of
the commissions report was postponed
to the next general conference on the
ground that this conference didn't under
stand it. The committee on episcopacy
reported adversely on the proposition for
new bishops.
The Text of the Proposition.
Goucher's proposition on the lay repre-.
sentation difficulty is as follows and con.
stitutes definition of the constitution of
the Methodist Episcopal church: "The
section on the general conference in the
NASSAp AAL4C VI 1915 dS auODIeu the gen
eral conference of 1865. has the nature and
force OF a constitution. That section, to-

What 1t Is Good For.
Before this bridge was built the only
means of getting across the Mississippi
between st. Louis and the gulf was the
ferry, which in the case of railway Is
costly and tedious affair. The advantages
OF she bridge to traffic are, therefore, ap.
parent. On the authority of prominent
railroad official the bridge means a saving
OF one to five hours time in crossing the
river for passenger trains and of twelve to
twenty-four hours for freight That alone
Is great point in this day of close compe-
tltlon among railroads.
Memphis Completes with st. Louis.
The saving OF time puts the Memphis
routes in direct competition for business in

clllties for quicker time. Besides, the
bridge affords competing facilities for all
lines entering Memphis and their connec-
lions for any and all rans-Mississippi
business southeast and southwest. Thus
greater and constantly increasing vol
ume OF business will begin to flow through
Memphis, giving her greater Importance
In the commercial world and drawing the
attention of the country more closely to
the splendid and rapidly developing re-
sources of the Mississippi valley. Eleven

WILMINGTON, o., May 13-Among the
relatives of Grover Cleveland who
went to Washington to see him inau-
gurated was pretty Estella Cleveland, of
this place. Her beauty at tracted the at
tention of Mrs. Griffin, rich hotel owner
Of Cincinnati, and she chaperoned Estella
through the fashionable resorts of Amer
lea, as many thought on husband-hunt-
ing tour. Anyhow, it gave the young
woman the polish of duchess. A short
time afterward she married Edward Niche
ner, wealthy young grocer of Cincin-
natl.
Somebody Was Dissatisfied.
Either Mehener was unsuited or Es.
tella was not pleased for they did not live
happily together. The wealthy chaperone
was not pleased either, although probably
notresponsible for the match, and so they
separated. Then Mehener failed in bust
ness as he failed in love. His home was
broken up and Estella returned to Will
mington and filed a petition for divorce
on the ground of desertion.
