The Street Parade in New York.

Iut otEctl Il III wv = VI
New YORK, April 2S.-Not since the
British evacuated New York has such
an occurrence been witnessed as took
place here to-day. With muskets at
their shoulders and small arms at their
sides, the foreigners marched down
Americas greatest street-Broadway-
with Governor Flower riding at the
head of the procession. Grim, fierce
looking Russians, sturdy Britons, rud-
DIV faced Germans, trim, quick moving
Frenchmen, dark visaged Italians,
Spaniards and South Americans
marched along, file after file, with
their own officers commanding and
with their own bands playing the airs
that they love best. United States ma
rines and bluejacI,ets preceded them,
and the national guardsmen of the State
followed in their rear. There was con-
siderable difficulty in maintaining the
lines, so eager was the crowd to have a
close look at the swarthy tars of other
nations. Our own sailors were not
neglected. They were cheered, but
there was no rush to get near them,
for they were too well known to excite
curiosity. The whole of the First bri-
gade and the naval reserve were out
and had the naval militia of Massachu-
sets as their guests. The procession
was led by the admirals in carriages,
escorted by officers of the United States
navy. Following the carriages came
the first division, consisting of United
States sailors and marines headed by
the Marine Band. The second division
was the one that interested the crowds
on the street more than any other, as
it contained the sailors of the visiting
fleets. They were cheered as they
passed the reviewing stands and when
ever they wheeled to turn corner.
After the visitors came the National
Guard of the State of New York. The
decorations along the line of march
were not extensive owing to the storm
ofyesterday interfering with the work
of trimming the buildings. After the
parade the Governor and Mayor Gilroy
received the visiting admirals and their
officers in the Governors room of the
City Hall where collation. was spread.
The junior officers of the ships were
entertained mt the Waldorf Hotel.
The President reached the City Hall
at Il o'clock for the purpose of review
ing the parade. The head of the pro-
cession had not reached there, however,
up TO 11:50, when the President was
compelled to leave in order to catch his
train for Chicago.

having intended to assassinate MIR.

AN INSANE MANS DEED.-Early yes
terday morning Edward McElroy, an
insane man, entered the room at his
home in Providence, r. l., where his
mother, a cousin, Miss Healy, and q
ten-year-old brother were sleeping, and
cut the Threats of Mrs. McElroy and
Miss Healey. He first attacked his
mother. Miss Healey jumped from the
bed, was seized and cut, and, to escape,
Jumped through the closed window.
Mrs. SIcElroy followed, and also the
boy, whom the mailman had overlook
ed. They notified the police. Officer
O,Rourke went to the house first, and
was badly cut on the neck by the same
razor in the hands of McElroy. He was
found by another officer. The insane
man locked himself in, but was finally
overcome by the police, after hard
struggle and narrow escape for them.
Mrs. McElroy may die, but the others
will probably recover.

THE RECENT unwilling of statue OF
John Ericsson, at New York, was seized
upon by some of the newspapers of that
city as an opportunity for telling the
officers and crews of the foreign fleets
now assembled there, and the numer-
Gus other people from abroad now in
that city, that the "rebel" vessel Nir-
ginia was as nothing before the Mont
tor, and that the latter vessel had revo-
lutionized naval warfare. People who
SAW the fight between the two vessels
referred to, say the Virginia sunk, dis
a5led or put to flight the whole federal
fleet except the Monitor, and, but for
grounding, would have cleaned her up
also. And nothing is better known
than the fact that the Virginia revived
the old ideas of iron clads and of sink
ing ships by punching holes in them
with iron prows.

THERE Is no doubt of the fact that
Mr.. Carlisle's reputation for wisdom
has not increased since he left the Sen
ate to assume control of the Treasury
Department. Sentiment and business
are two separate and distinct things,
and the former always gathers up
her skirts and fees when confronted by
the latter. Men who think they can
make money by holding on to their
rold will not be influenced by sentiment
to surrender it to the government in
order to maintain the value of its paper
currency: and the man who doesn't
know this is not wise.

knowledges that some of the business
men and bankers of Richmond did
adopt resolution advising the Presi-
dent to increase the public debt by the
issue of more bonds. 1t could hardly
have done otherwise, as the congress
man from Richmond has presented that
resolution to Mr.. Cleveland. The Dis
patch couldn't believe that the business
men of its own city had declared that

termined to conduct his own business

monstrated that fact to it by the mouths

FRIDAY EVENING, APRIL %, 1898

The RICHMOND Dispatch says, Gen
eral Fitz Lee, we doubt not, might have
had an appointment of great conse
ouence under this administration, but
that the President well knew he had
other plans" Why then, did the Presi-
dent, when delegation of Virginians
requested him to appoint Mr.. Goode
solicitor general, interrupt the spokes-
man with the remark that the Senate
was the place for the gentleman for
whom he was speaking? The Dispatch
also says the appointment of General
Lee to a dictatorship of the Union Pa
cific Railroad, a place with neither fees
nor salary, lis step in the direction OF
evening up Virginia's share of federal
patronage" The Dispatch doubtless
views it in that light, but 1t is hardly
possible that any of the many Virgin
ians who have, and not unreasonabiy'
expected recognition of long and etiec-
tive service, will do likewise.

KANSAS RAILROADS.

The Santa Fe passenger depot at To-
peka is returned for taxation at $4,000.
The Union Pacific estimates the value
of it's buildings in Shawnee county at
$12,905.
The Santa Fe clerks are the only en-
ployes of the company who don't be-
long to union.
It is said there are fewer union men
employed on the Rock Island than on
any other railroad in the west.
The Rock Island is preparing new
worlds fair time card. It will not go
into effect, however, for two or three
weeks Some radical changes are con-
templated. Two additional passenger
trains daily through Topeka will be
started.
The Rock Island officials are not feel
ing very much complimented over the
fact that two out of five members of the
state board of railroad assessors are out
| with the special train provided for them
to travel over the lines and inspect the
property. The other three members
are represented by their assistants, who
have no authority to act or sit as men,
| bers of the board.
The new Santa Fe management has
decided to make some changes in the
management of the Colorado Midland.
J. F. II. McKibben, auditor of the
Santa Fe, will, in addition to his duties
as such officer, perform the same SER
vice for the Colorado road. This will
bring to Topeka number of extra en-
ployes. Mr.. McKibben said that the
old employees of the Midland would be
retained, and would make their head
quarters in Topeka after May 1. Ed
ward Wilder has been elected secretary
and treasurer of the Midland.
It is said that the purchase of the
Planters house at Leavenworth by DR..
Flanders means the location there of
the Missouri Pacific hospital, now sit
uated at Kansas City. It is alleged
that the property at Kansas City has
become too valuable to retain for hos
pital purposes. and that for this reason
alone the old Planters house will be
converted into frst-class hospital for
the Missouri Pacific, and the presenS
hospital at Kansas City will be aban
doned and then converted into cash.
The site is excellent for hospital pur-
poses, as it is near the river bank, COM
handing beautiful view of the river
and free from the noise OF busy streets.
