A BRILLIANT SIGHT.
Ships and Buildings Almost Hid
den in Bunting.

den in Bunting.
New YORK, April 26.-As the fleet
came out of the Narrows and straight
ened the lines coming up the upper
bav, the squadron distance was again
600 yards apart. The tide currents,
however, caused some Of the boats to
fall behind, and therefore they were
somewhat out Of place when the Battery
was in sight. Coming up the bay
with the feet the sight was a
brilliant one. Every ship in the
harbOr was flying every bit of
bunting it could get together, and the
buildings in the lower part of the city
were decorated with flags of all nations.
Steam whistles were screeching, and
the Battery wall and all the h ousetops
and other places from which the river
could be seen were black with sight
seers. When the leaders IN the parade
got opposite Governors island4ne bat
terry in the old fort began salute. and
the feet steamed along half-hidden for
a few minutes in the smoke from the
cannon. The ships dipped their flags
in answer, but did not return with cam
non.
1t was exactly 10:45 when the Phia-
delphia and the Blake passed the island
and pointed up the river, and in half an
hour the last ship had passed on its
| way up The bands played national
airs on the British ships as they pro-
ceeded up the river, and the strains of
music waited across the water were
plainly heard by the crowds along shore.
| The Philadelphia passed the Santa
| Maria, which was anchored short dis
| tance farther up the stream. The crews
of the mimic Columbus fleet cheered
and waved their hats as Uncle Sans
navy steamed by.
1t was Just II As when a single gun
from the Philadelshia announced that
! the anchorage ground had been reached,
| and answering almost instantly gun
doomed on the Chicago, and the anchors
! of the twelve American ships dropped
as if released by electricity. The for
! eign vessels slowed down and steamed
| to positions opposite the escorting YES
| sells of our fleet. Aside from the signal
| gun to anchor, there was no cannonad-
ing to wake the echoes of the peaceful
Palisades or the heights of Riverside
Park. 1t was high noon when the last
anchor was dropped, and the fleet was
in position. There was no confusion Or
accident attending the anchoring of
the men-Ot-war. The big vessels moved
up the river in the positions to which
they had been assigned, and let go of
their anchors at almost precisely the
points selected for them by Admiral
| Gherardi.
The caravels were not in the position
today which they will occupy in the re-
view tomorrow. The Santa Maria, with
her black hull, canary-colored PROV
! and DulWarkS, and three raking maSts,
inclined at an angle of about 45 degrees,
] swung at anchor opposite the foot OF
West Ninetyfifth street, near the New
Jersey shore.

WESTERN RATES CUT
Opening Gun Of a Probable
Bitter Fight Fired by the
Denver & Rio Gpande.
Round Trip Rate From Denver
to Chicago Placed at
$45.
Eastern Connections Of the
Road Held Responsible by
the Atehison.
This Action PpeSageS the
LivelieSt Kind OF a Rate
War.

CHICAGO. April 26.-The first blow OF
what may be a long and bitter war in
Western passenger rates was struck to-
day when it was announced that the
Denver & Rio Grande had decided to
put in the following rates: From Den
yer and Colorado common points. SIS d;
Denver to Santa Fe, SIS. The cut from
Denver to Santa Fe. Albuquerque and
other Southern points averages 70
per cent. In addition to this the
Denver IL Rio Grande will put on a bet
ter sleeping car service between Santa
Fe and tho East. The rates are an
nounced to take effect over the Missouri
Pacific, and it is understood that they
will also be taken on the trains of the
Burlington and of the Rock Island as
well. The Atchison road has notified
the chairman of the Western Passenger
association that it will on May
20, when it is free to with
draw from the association, meet the
rOtes made by the other roads, and that
if it should be made aware of any re-
auctions made by Western passenger
lines east of the river, it will meet
them at once. 1t has announced that it
will give the roads which are RESPONSE
bic for the reduction until Saturday
To Reconsider the Rates,
and if they are not withdrawn by that
time it will make through rate from
Colorado to Chicago on the same basis
as that made by the Denver IL Rio
Grande. That means that tickets over
the Atchson between Chicago and Kan
sas City will be sold at the round-trip
rate of S1S.35.
The action of the Denver & Rio
Grande was a surprise to the majority
of the lines, as they confidently believed
that both the Burlington and the Rock
Island would prevent the Colorado road
from making any radical move in the
reduction of rates. These roads say
now that it is not in their power to pre-
vent the Denver & Rio Grande from re-
ducing its rates as long as it pays them
the percentages OH their share of the
business, and that they have not author
lied the reduced rates. but at the same
time they admit that they are going to
take care of the business at the reduced
rates. If the matter is not arranged in
some way before the time for the Atchi
son to withdraw from the Western Pas
Senger association arrives, there is moth
ing that will prevent the livelieSt kind
OF rate war.

New York.

NEW YORK. April 26.-The stock mar
ket was dull and the fluctuations in
prices were generally slight. The inter
est taken in the naval parade and the
fact that the exchagne will be closed to-
morrow, tended to curtail operations.
In spite of the dizziness, however, a firm
tone characterized the dealings, pur-
chaseS being stimulated by the further
reduction in the rates of sterling eX-
change, the ease in money and the
statements by bankers that no gold eX-
ports are to be expected by tomorrOW's
or Saturdays steamers. A majority of
stocks closed fractionally above last
nights figures. Reading was especially

The Illinois Law Declared to Be
Unconstitutional

CHICAGO, April ga number of
ticket brokers who were under indict-
ment for violating the state law which
provides that only authorized agents
shall be allowed to sell railroad tickets,
secured their discharge today on tech
nicality. The law provides that any
authorized agent may sell tickets on
any road, and the indictments were
based on the theory that the law is vio-
lated if a person sells the tickets of a
railroad company and is not authorized
by that particular company. The three
judges in the case also declared in effect
that the law was unconstitutional, COM
ing within the constitutional inhibition
of the state constitution, which declares
that the general assembly shall not pass
any special law granting special or eX-
elusive privileges, immunity or fran
