given in the new world. Besides the
president and visitors, the chief leg
islative body of the United States and
the Spanish grandee, the lineal descend
ant of Christopher Columbus, there
were the diplomatic corps and sub-or-
dinate officers Of every great power in
the world. The governors Of the neigh

officers were In the gathering, celeb
retdes so varied and so gloriously ar

decorations were rich and elaborate.
Mayor Gilroy, as head of the munic-
ipality. and Mrs. Gilroy, officially re-

stood upon a reception dais, and just
behind them were stationed commit
tee Of one hundred, and honor COM
mittees, who escorted the more distin-
guished guests from the entrance to
boxes. No precedence was observed,
every effort being made to indicate that
the ball was a republican citizens af-
fair. The president, however, was not
escorted in to the mayors reception
dais when he arrived half an hour be-
fore midnight, but was met at the en-
trance by an escort of honor. The
bands at his appearance played Hail
to the Chief" the only piece played in

POOR OUTLOOK.

and yesterday morning again began
showing and fell steadily all day all the

other Red river points, thousands of

GLADsToNEs LIFE ENDANGERED

London, April 27-The Pail Mall Ca
zette contains a sensational article un-
der big headlines declaring that an at
tempt was made to shoot Gladstone
at midnight last night as he was walk
ing through st. James Park on his way
home. Gladstone saw nothing of the
occurrence. The man under arrest is
William Townsend, 3S years old. The
officer who arrested him saw him
mount the steps of Gladstone's residence
shortly after Gladstone entered. When
the policeman ordered him to descend
fired at him and desperately resisted
arrest. Townsend says the discharge
Of the revolver was accidental.
The prisoners note book contained
mass of rawlings against Irish home
rule, and a suggestion that to murder
Gladstone would be justifiable. Not
withstandlng the statements that Glad
stone is in no danger of being shot,
and that no Importance is attached to
the affair, there is a growing suspicion
that Gladstone is nearer imminent dan
ger than his friends will admit.
