Will TOu CHI the Burton.

President Cleveland will touch of
the Worlds Fair May 1st IN the pres
ence of from 100, 900 to $50 900 peo-
pie. The plan to have the, opening
exercises in a small hall has been
abandoned, and the ceremonies will
be held at the east front of the admin
istration building. There was con-
siderable objection to the massing of
SO large crowd in one portion of the
grounds to witness the ceremonies, as
1t was feared it might ruin the lawns
and flower gardens, but these were
overcome by those who favored the
open air program.
A substantial platform will be built
just in front of the administration
building. This will be connected
with the machinery hall, so that Pres
ident Cleveland will only have to step
to the speakers table to touch the
button. the new plan furnishes
many opportunities FIR picturesque
effects. 1t is proposed to mass all the
electric launches, gondolas and all the
water crafts in the basin and ia front
of the administration building. Thous-
snds OF spectators can get line view
OF the platform from the water front.

sale:ooms today the principal pieces
of their extended exhibit for The Co
lumbar Exposition. The display is
far the most extensive ever attempted

the exposition. The value of the COL
lection is about S2,00O,O0O. In the
jewelry display is large corsage or
nament representing lattice of
maider hair ferns; in its construction
there were used about 800 diamonds
and 175 pearls. There are also two
sets of ]ewelry, consisting of tiara,
necklace and pendant brooch, CON-
posed, one of aqua marines and dia-
monds, and the other of topaz and
diamonds. These sets are each COM
posed OF 1900 stones. Notable in the
ailverware collection is the Pueblo en-
amel vase, the general design of (which
is taken from the pieces of pottery
found among the ancient liff-dwelIers
relics. The vase is about two feet
in height. The decorative effects are
combination of silver, nickel, cop
per, gold and enamel, by means OF
which the flowers and shrubs most
characteristic of the country are re-
produced. Tiffany Il Co. will also
give, during the fair, practical illus
trations of the work of cutting and
polishing diamonds.

A London fsiot.

The strike of union dock laborers at
Hull, England, which has been in
progress some time, resulted in u riot
Saturday, when the union men took
the offensive. The non unionists were
game and stood their ground. So the
unionists attacked the offices of the
shipping firms. When the police took
hand in the game they were obliged
to use their clubs vigorously.
Late in the evening The Dock La
borer's Union of Hull issued an APP
peal to similar unions in London, Liv-
erpool and Glasgow, requesting them
to unite with the Hull union in the
fight against the shipping federation.
No steamers were able to get away
Saturday except those that had their
cargoes aboard before the trouble oc-
Cured, and the entire shipping trade
is at standstill.
Among the companies affected by
the strike is the Wilson line, some of
the vessels of which are in the An.eri-
can trade. Charles III. Wilson, one of
the owners of the line, has incurred
the special enmity of the strikers by
his attitude toward the union and
many threats are made against him.
Wilson represents West Hull in the
house OF commons, and the police will
see to it that the threats are not put
into execution.
Considerable excitement prevails
everywhere in the land, and the out
come of the struggle is anxiously
awaited. -
