long talk with the officials. The result of
the conference has not been learned.

on Lake Nicaragua by the reuolutionists,
was returned yesterday to the representa-

among the revolutonists. The Bank of
Managua, in the national capital, where
President SacaZa is still in control, has
closed its doors. 1t has branches. however,
which are transactng business as though
no revolution had broken out.

headed by Colonel Wilson of the army,
Commissioner of Public Grounds and
Buildings, who wore his ful-dress uni
form in his capacity as military repre-
sen tatve of the President.
A double width of Garnet was laid along
the east side of the platform for the pas
sage of the royal party from the train to
the carriage, and then a detachment Of
police drove back all intruders from the
station.
When the train steamed in the Princess

pressed forward and Commander Davis
presented him To the Infanta, The greet
ing over, Secretary Gresham offered his
arm TO the Princess, and, preceded by
Colonel Wilson and Mr.. Parke and fol-
lowed by the Infanta's suite, walked down
the carpeted platform to the carriage at
the entrance of the station.
The crowd was something enormous.
and the Princess looked pleased as she
saw the throng gathered to receive her.
and she chatted gayly in English with
Gresham as they walked along.
The 1nfanta, Secretary Gresham, Min
lister Muruaga and Prince Antonio entered
the Presidents carriage, the cavalrymen
saluted, and the procession began to move
up Pennsylvania avenue toward the
Arlington. Four buglers on horseback
led, and four troops of cavalry formed the
escort for the royal party.
Six sergeants of cavalry acted as a body
guard to the Princess, and following her
carriage came carriages containing her
suite and the members of the receiving
party. The Princess seemed particularly
pleased at the manifestations of popular
enthusiasm along the street and bowed
graciously as she was whirled along the
broad avenue.
1t was S:55 when the head of the CO lumn
of troops turned off Pennsylvania avenue
and came up to the hotel. The Princess
alighted and taking the arm of Secretary
Gresham. followed by her husband and
the Spanish Minister, entered the summer
annex 10 the hotel. being greeted by loud
shout.t from the assembled crowd.
Immediately upon entering the house
the Princess passed into the reception
room, accompanied by Secretary Gresham
and Assistant Secretary Quincy and her
suite. A moment later the representa-
tives of the Government bade the party
goodnight. Beautiful floral offerings
from Mrs. Cleveland, Mrs. Curry and
others were in the rooms.
Tomorrow the Princess will pay an
official visit to the President and Mrs
Cleveland, Dut the programme of the day
beyond that has not been agreed upon.

LoTTA NOT IN 1T.
Sorosis Has Black-Balled
the Actress.
SHE DIDN'T CARE A SNAP,
But Some Other Persons Do, and
There Is a Perfect Frenzy
of Excitement.
Special to THE MORNING CALL.

NEW YORK. May 19.-All the talk of
the town is of the last business meeting
held by the Sorosis. Dignity was thrown
to the winds and all regard for order was
ignored. Mrs. Fannie L. Helmuth, the
vice. president. presided.
The trouble began when she requested
Mrs. Sara L. Kidder of Chicago to retire,
as not being resident member she had no
right to attend business meeting. Sew
eral candidates for membership we're then
proposed. The first candidate was Miss
Lotta Crabtree, proposed by Mrs. Edward
E. Kidder. and her vouchers were Mrs.
Sydney Rosenfsld and Mrs. A. NJ. Palmer.
Miss Georgia Cayvan. who is member of
Sorosis, sent letter enthusiastically
recomm ending Miss Crabtree. The only
objection made to Lotta was that she was
an actress, but when the ballot was taken
the chairman solemnly announced:
Ladies'. the candidate is not elected"
For moment there was silence, or as
near an approach to it as was possible in a
gathering of more than $50 women. Then
a long-drawn murHur of dissent and pro-
test ran around the room and Mrs. E. E.
Kidder sprang to her-tee'. She was tremb-
ling with excitement.
q This is outrageous" she exclaimed.
ut is the most outrageous thing / ever
heard of. | resign my membership.

be guilty of such thing"
"S-h-h" sounded from various parts
of the room and Mrs. Kidder's nearest
neighbor pulled her back into her seat
Il am sorry" said Mrs. Palmer with
flashing eyes. '.that Sorosis can be so lit
tie, so narrow, so mean. [ also resign.
Pm ashamed of Sorosis."
Mrs. Rosenfeld declared that the club
had offered an Insult 10 her as voucher, an
insult she would never forget.
One member. who seemed to desire
peace, proposed second ballot. Her
motion was adopted and the second ballot
was taken with the same resul. as before.
When this result was announced the
ladies. with the exception of the few who
had cast black balls-it only requires five
to defeat candidate-were speechless
with rage. They simply sat and glared
Evidently they thought they could not dc

the chairman again made the announce.
ment.
"rhe candidate is not elected" Then
some more bitter remarks We're made and
Mrs. Thaddeus B. Wakeman's name was
withdrawn because her voucher had
heard that she would be rejected also.
The members became more furious than
ever and pandemonium reigned sor time.
Then Miss Alice Cary Croly's name came
up. She is a granddaughter of Jennie
June. the organizer of the club. A vote
was taken, but none of the members
seemed to know whether she had been
elected or not Order being impossible,
the meeting adjourned after several other
names had been withdrawn.
Miss Crabtree says: Il had 210 votes in
my favor to against me, but really I do
not care snap about 1t. 1t does OF

cept and example that they will find their
safety and welfare in enforcing upon their
public servants the observation OF the mana
dates of Christianity and morality"
The visitors were presented by name to
the President and Mrs. Cleveland, and
they then strolled through the parlors and
conserratories and afterward took their
departure.
This evening a general meeting in be-
half of Sunday-school work in the churches
was held.
In the General Assem- bly, to-day perhaps
the most interest clustered about the names
of members of the judiciary committee, for
this is the committee that will pass upon
the appeal in the case of DR.. Briggs. and
will report 10. the assembly upon the ques-
ton of the propriety of that body enter
tanning the appeal. Rev. DR.. George u.
Baker, selected to act as chairman, is
classed among the conservatives, and as
such his appointment gave the greatest
satisfaction TO that faction OF the assem-
bly,. by all odds the largest. The commit
tee is for the most part made up of men
who are known to be nservative-that
is. TO be more definite, of anti-Briggs men.
The annual reports of the various church
boards, such as those on temperance, bene-
ficent missions. freedmen, ETC., show en-
couraging results in every branch of work
undertaken by the Presbyterian Church.
These reports will be taken up by the
General Assembly and considered from
time to time.
The report of the committee on temper
auce contemplates with shame the specta-
Gle of a vast national grogshop" at the
Worlds Fair, and faVor@+ the estab blish-
ment by Congress of an impartial commits
sion to inquire into the liquor traffic,
such as has been provided for in a bill
| passed several times by the Senate but
defeated by the liquor interest in the
House. The report emphasizes the state
ment that the church is not political
organization, but if the question of morals
becomes question Of politics also. the
the church is not precluded on that account
from dealing with it. The report also
protests against the system known as the
army canteen, in which, it is claimed,

and this evening a popular meeting was
addressed by The synodical secretaries.

WILL NOT Go DOWN.
Huntington Intimates That He
Has the Panama Railroad.
But, Strangely Enough, Everybody
Else Interested Discredits the
Story of the Deal.
Special to THE MORNING CALL. .

New YORK, May 19-It was reported to.
day that the fight between the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company and The Panama
Railroad Company was about to be ended.
Negotiations for the settlement of the ex-
isting differences are under way, and it is
generally believed that they will go
through satisfactorily.
c. P. Huntington said that settlement
was being talked over between the oppos-
ing companies, but that he could not dis
close the basis of it until later If there
was no hitch in the proceedings, he said,
the public would know the plan OF adjust
ment early next week.
The Panama Railroad officials say no
more about the matter than did Hunting
ton, but from information obtained here
to-day il would appear that the railroad
people forced the Pacific Mail Company to
come TO terms.
1t seems that within the last ten days
the Panama company obtained, under
charter, the five large steamships OF the
United States and Brazil Mail Steamship
Company, which were sold at auction
few weeks ago to satisfy claims against the
company. These steamers the Panama
company intended to put on their line be-
tween here and Colon.
The charters were to be signed this week,
when everything was brought to halt by
the Pacific Mail people discovering what
the Panama folks were doing and making
overtures for settlement, for with these
steamships in the hands of the railroad
company the Pacific Mail people saw nc tn
ing but losing battle ahead.
a rafhar purioue faa in oonnaotfon ,u{,l,
this Is that c. P. Huntington, a director
in the Pacific Mail. is also a director and a
heavy investor in the United States and
Brazil Mail Steamship Company, and when
the vessels on the latter line were sold a
few weeks ago they were bid in. as was
generally understood. for Huntington's s
account.
Regarding the disposition of these ships,
II settlement of the troubles between the
Pacific Mail and the Panama Railroad is
brought about. Huntington said to-day
that he could not tell what would be done.
Others interested in the matter say there
IS business enough for more vessels than
the Pacific Mail Company has at present
on the Atlantic side, and that they can be
run proitably by that company.
inis uispatcn was shown to Frank
Johnson Of the North American Naviga-
ton Company, who did not hesitate to say
that he believed the message origin ated
with Mr.. Huntington. and be laughed
heartily at the absurdity of the rumor.
Mr.. Leeds of the Traffic Association
promptly discredited the report, calling
attention to the binding contract of the
new steamer line with the Panama corpo-
ration.
Captain Merry declared that there could
be no truth In the dispatch. and like Mr..
Leeds. stated that under the existing con-
tract no other than the present arrange
nents with the North American Naviga-
tion Company could be made by the Pa
cifc Railroad.
