Texas arrived in the city by boat last

the roll call. II was for their arrival
that the presentation OF the 169S9bRn-'

Sensational reports sont out from
Montreal that the delegatea from the

individual kicks from various members
rather than from any considerable
body Of yisitofs.
Now that all the delegates have ar--
rived II iS admitted by some OF tho
head men in the convention that tho
attendance is rather disappointing and
that 10000 is an outside number for tho
delegates, but this detractS nothing
from the enthusiasm, and this morn-

GERMAN ARMY BILL.
The Chancellor Presents it to tho Reich.
Stag-Its Provisions.

The Chancellor Presents it to the Relch-
Stas-Its Provisions.
BERLIN, July 7.-When the new
reichstag met to-day for the first time
for the consideration Of regular parlia-
mentary business, nearly all Of the 297
members were in their places.
Immediately the formal opening Of
the house was concluded, Chancellor
Won Caprivi assembled the tribune and
in a long speech introduced the amend
ed army measure.
The keynote Of the speech was that
the foreign countries, not knowing in
timately the German character, had
been led to believe that Germany
had lost confidence in herself and
that the countries composing the Ger
man empire were no longer united.
This, the chancellor declared, was an
erroneous impression which ought to
be quickly dispelled by the speedy
adoption OF the new bill
Referring to the expense that would
be entailed by the granting OF the gov
ernment's demands,' Chancellor Won
Caprivi said that the new taxes that
must necessarily be levied would be
borne on strong shoulders. These
taxes would not touch the middle
classes or the agricultural population.
Herr Liebnicht, the well.known So
cial Democratic leader said that the
government did not want an increased
army because II feared Russia or
France, but because it desired to fortify
itself against the German people.
This assertion was greeted with
cries OF "shame, shame"

PARIS, July 7,-This evening opened
with the police apprehensiyc of riots
in many parts of the Latin quarter
Traffic was stopped in principal Streets
Every open space had been occupied by
mounted police and all the side streets
were patrolled, All the cafes ia the
boulevard Du Tom pie and the boulevard
Voltaire were filled at o'clock with
workingmen and rowdios, who were
expected shortly to follow the chief
agitators into the streets and begin the
attack on police and military.
Shortly before 8 o'clock the Gales wore
empty and the mobs were again in the
streets. In the Boulevard Voltaire and
the Boulevard Du Tejple the rioters
were armed with clubs and a few re.
volvers. They marched cheering and
singing towards the Place De la Repub'
lique. At the corner OF the Rue DAN
goulame the rioters wero met by body
OF dragons and lancers. They were
ordered back, but pressed ahead. The
military charged, but although many
rioters were knocked down aud tram
pied the mob did not yield.
The charge was repeated and the mob
began retreatlng slowly. There was no
scattering or sign OF panic. The men
backed off step by step, those IN front
welding their clubs right and left and
those behind splitting up booths and
kiosks into weapons with which to fight
later in the front After six charges
the military had forced the mob back
to the Boulevard Richard Lenoir, where
tho fight was Suspended.
In their retreat the rioters had set
FIRE TO the booths which they did not
split into clubs, For five blocks the
boulevard Voltaire iS strewn with
broken timbers charred boards and
torn and bloody clothing.

MARY WASHINGTON.
Ladies About to Erect Monu-
ment Over Her Grave.
Model of the Dignified Design Placed on
Exhibition at the Columbian Expo
sition "A Severely Classic
Memorial.

The ladies of the National Mary
Washington Memorial association have
an abiding faith in the country and
sincerely believe that the women of
America will provide sufficient funds
to meet the cost of the monument
which is shortly to be erected over the
long-neglected grave of George Wash
ington's mother at Fredericksburg, Va.
In view of this, says the New York
Herald, they have awarded q contract
for beautiful memorial to the firm of
John Crawford s. Son, of Buffalo, who
have prepared model, which is now
on exhibition in the Woman's building
of the Worlds Columbian exposition in
Chicago.
The memorial is simple, dignifed and
severely classic in design. 1t is a mon
olith, the most ancient form of a mon
ument, and undoubtedly the most ap-
propriate for the character of tho
woman over whom it is to be reared.
1t will be constructed of Vermont
granite, the shaft forty feet in height,
supported by base ten feet in height,
giving an extreme elevation of fifty
feet. AS it will rest-upon the rising
ground it is destined to be the most
conspicuous object in the landscape in
and about Fredericksburg.
In selecting the memorial the ladies
of the association have not been I'M
mindful of the character of Mary
Washington. To many of the ladies of
the association the severe simplicity of
the shaft has been a disappointment.
Their fancy and taste had suggested
an exquisite structure of pure italian
marble, enriched by elaborate carving
of the master sculptors of the country.
Reflection, however, will convince
the friends of the association of the
wisdom of the selection. A marble
monument, with symbolic carving and
delicate tracery, was projected for the
grave a half century ago. A portion
of it was erected, and this is now a
mass of Clipped and disintegrated
stones. Fine works of art in stone re-
quire large sums of money, not only
for their creation but for their preser-
walton.
AS Mrs. Roger A. Pryor, the indie
fatigable vice president of the associa-
