ST. PETERSBURG, May 21.To-day is
the tenth anniversary Of the browning
III Moscow of the Gar of all the Russias,
and by order of the autocrat it will be
observed by festivities that will extend
over Il week and that, Notwithstanding
the misery and poverty that exist
throughout the empire, will necesstate
Il lavish expenditure OF money. Not
less than half million presents have
been purchased with the national fund
for distribution by the court. Most of
the reigning houses of Europe have APP
pointed representatives to participate
in the festivities The latter will be al
most as impressive as those that marked
the coronation. 1t is believed that both
the Nhilists and the prosecuted Jews
may take the occasion to make demon
STATIONS against the royal house, and
in consequence the secret service de-
partment has been especially instructed
to Il diligent performance Of duty.
LONDON, May PA dispatch from St.
Petersburg states that it has leaked out
that the war minister has refused army
students permission to leave st. Peters
burg until after to-day's ceremony at
Moscow in connection with the anniver-
sary of the Cars coronation. He even
forbade the departure of students about
to go to the interior to combat the
cholera. This measure is suspected to
be due to the discovery of Il conspiracy
among the 81. Petersburg students and
the fear that an attempt on the Car S
life has been planned. \ large number
of St Petersburg students, it is known,
have been arrested, and persistent ru-
mors are also current that the Gar will
make startling and disquieting declara-
ton on the Bulgarian question before

STOCKBRIDGE ENROLMENT.
Secretary Smith VIII Soon Count Heads on
the Reservation.

WASHINGTON, d. c., May 24.-Secre-
tary Smith, of the Interior Department,
to-day took under advisement the
congressional plan of sending to
Wisconsin representative of
the department to secure an
exact enrolment of all the Indians of
the Stockbridge tribe. This matter is
giving aim some worriment, because
the act made no appropriation for car
rylng on this work. Secretary Smith
thinks, however, that it will be neces-
sary for the department to take some
action.
1t will be remembered that The bill
provided that the government should at
once proceed to take an enrolment or
census of the Indians with view to de-
termlning who were entitled to be en-
rolled us members Of the tribe, under
the provisions of the various treaties
made with them. So far no definite ac-
ton has been taken in reference to
sending an agent of the department.
there, but it is likely that someone will
be delegated at an early date to COM

,ngrcsS.
1t is understood that some of the
Stockbridge Indians are very much OPP
posed to the proposed enrolment, upon
the ground that various parties are like

A WORLDS FAIR ROMANCE.
How the Fair Typewriter Made Sad the
Heart Of Shcik Ali.


Heart of Sheil< Ali.
CnIcNGo, ILL.,, May 21.-Shcik Ali,
muezzin of the Cairo street, was sad
to-day when everyone in the street was
rejoicing. His voice, wont to call in
clear tones from the top Of the beauti-
full minaret the faithful to their devo-
Egyptian clergyman had lost his
heart to an American girl, Miss
Blanche Wilson, Il pretty type
writer, dark haired and petite, who
came from Columbus, O., TO accept
the position of secretary to one of the
managers Of the street. Whether or not
the priests love was rcciprocatcd is
unknown to everybody except Che two
chief parties in the little romance which
developed or rather was shattered yes
tcrIay. Miss Wilson has been repeated
" importuned since heradNcnt INTO the
VILLAGE, bv the Mohammedan priest. 1t
was necessary for the good of the show
that the priest should remain, and ac-
cordingly, late Thursday night Miss
Wilson'S employer informed her that 1t
would be better for her to rcturn to her
home in Ohio and thus be free from the
attentions of Shcik Mi. Miss Wilson
rather objected to this and soon after
sue WAS llllptlllttt VI tllt 'ttttl
other employers she fell into u swoon
of some kind which u physician who
was called from the city was unable to
diagnose. She became chilled and it
was with great difficulty that warmth
was restored. Even after that was ;lc-
complished she still remained uncon-
Scious and did not recover until late
Friday morning. Whether or not she
had been subjected to some hypnotic
or mesmeric influence Ivy the priest
could not be told, but the physician felt
sure that she had taken no drug or
medicine.
Miss Wilson finally agreed TO return
to Ohio, although she ohlcctly strongly
to giving up her position under such
circumstances as those which forced
her to do so. 1t was determined to
take her quietly to the train at the
Englewood station and to keep the
muezzin away from her, but he had his
friends watching developments and he
managed to get out of the grounds and
to speak word to the object of his
alteration before she took passage on
the train which bore her back to CO.
lumbus Friday night.
Il am not inclined to think, said one
of the managers of the street, "that Ali S
attentions were reciprocated by Miss
Wilson. She was Il charming girl, full
of good nature, and, although warned of
the muezzin's conduct, she regarded 1t
rather as Il joke and did not care to Of
fend by sending him away Anyhow,
the muezzin was much depressed to-
day, and all the attentions of the donkey
boys, the conjurers, the snake charmers,
and other people in the street were
poWerlcsS to aSSuaUe his grief.

THE "LIBERAL' IDEA.
1t Triumphs in the Opening of the Fair on
Sunday.

CHICAGO, H., May 2S.-The first sun
day at the Worlds Fair has passed, a
success from a financial standpoint at
least Jackson Park was filled.
1t is estimated that over 10000 peo-
pie visited the fair 1t was cold, raw
dav, too, and for time it looked as
though it would rain The day dawned
bright and clear, but towards noon the
clouds gathered and the atmosphere
became damp and chilly. AS Il conse-
quence many persons who had intend
ed to 90 to the fair remained at home.
However this may be, thousands of ar
tisans and laborers of all kinds were
there, and a great many OF them took
their families. The crowd resembled
that which collects in public parks on
SUNDAYS during the hot weather when
the tenement districts become opprcs-
sivc.
Any kind of an estimate upon the at
tendance to-day may be had. Supt.
Tucker is III sea. BY comparison with
the opening day crowd, when there
were about $4,000 people in attend
ance, it would seem perfectly reason
able statement to say that close to Jo0,-
600 people passed into jackson Park be-
fore 9 O'Clock tonight At i o'clock
this afternoon Midway Plaisance,
from the Chinese theater to the
entrance from the grounds proper,
was a swarming, sWaying mass
of humanity, and the theaters, gardens
and villages held thousands upon thou
sands more. The great exhibit build
| ings and the court Of honor were dense
" packed. There were crowds every
where one went. If the Sabbatarlans
could have asked for any more proof OF
the fact that popular sentiment is over
whelmingly for a Sunday fair they got 1t
to-day.
In view of the fact that it was Sunday
only Il part of the state buildings were
open. The state buildings which were
! open were those of Illinois, California,
Wisconsin, Colorado, Michigan, Maine,
Idaho, Montana, Kansas, Nebraska,
Washington, Minnesota, Florida, Ari-
IONA, New Mexico, Ohio and Wyoming.
! Those which were closed were Massa
chusctts, Rhode Island, New Jersey,
| Maryland, Connecticut, New llamp-
shire Virginia, North Dakota, South
! Dakota, Louisiana, Missouri, Pennsyl-
vania, New York and Delaware. The

unfinished were those of Indiana, Yer

ASKED ALLISON TO CALL.
The President Discusses the Extra Session
with the Iowa Man.

WASHINGTON, d. c., May 26.--Prcsi-
dent Cleveland had a long conference
to-day with Senator Allison. While
no definite information can be
secured about the matter hints
have been dropped from what
appear to be authentic sources that the
financial situation was discussed. 1t is
understood that Cleveland asked the
Iowa senator to call for the purpose of
talking the matter over with him. AL
lison could not be seen after the contey-
ence. The impression is that the Presi-
dent Indicated to him that he
was going to cali Congress
together, and probably earlier than
August l. There is a possibility that
the extra session will be convened
early next month. Some tinanciers are
of the opinion that if the President
took this action the financial furry now
existing would be overcome

STRIKE WILL SPREAD.
Coal Business of Kansas, Missouri, Indian
Territory and Colorado to Be Parayzed.

PITTsBURG, Kas., May 25.-The out
look for an early settlement of the
strike of coal miners is rather gloomy
The operators have made no overtures
for conference with the men and have
not replied to the latter's request for a
conference.
At meeting of the W. M. W. A., in
Chicopee, last night, President Walters
addressed the largest assembly ever
congregated in the district. Resolutions
were adopted reposing confidence and
faith in the present attitude of the Of
fcers. One week was given the COM
panies at Chicopee to make all neces-
sary repairs and get the shaft in the po-
sition it would be before the water
flooded it about four weeks ago. Then
the men will join the strike.
The miners have settled down with
the determination for three months
struggle and perhaps longer. President
Walters has telegraphed the officers of
the national headquarters at Columbus,
o., to stop the operations of the Santa
Fe mines in Colorado. 1t will take
about ten days 10 effect the suspension
of the mines in that state. Mr.. Walters
will also leave for Usage County
next week, where the Santa Fe
Company also operate coal mines
extensively and believes it will take a
week to bring those mines to stand
still. From that county his attention
will be directed to Missouri and in the
meantime the national officers will rem
der assistance in bringing Missouri and
Indian Territory out and in less than
thirty days he thinks the mining of
commercial coal in Kansas, Missouri,
Indian Territory and Colorado will be
gtOpped

Formal Notice of Seven Days a Week OF
Worlds Fair.

Worlds Fair.
WORLDS FAIR GROUNDS, CHICAGO, ILL.,,
May 26.-Director of Works Burnham
sent out the official announcement last
evening that the Worlds Fair will be
open next Sunday. The announce
ment was brief and to the point. 1t
was buried midway in number of
other orders and read:
The park will also be open to the public
Sunday next, May %, until IL z. M; build
ings closing at 10 p. M.
Mr.. Burnham' course was in the main
the outcome of the recent meeting of the
National Commission, when that body
refused to set aside the rule made by the
directory that the exposition should
be open on Sunday. Yesterday after
noon Mr. Burnham had conference
with President Higinbotham. They
talked over the situation and decided
that it would conserve the best interests
of the exposition to officially announce
at once that the fair would open next
Sunday. The director of works hast
ened over to his Office in the service
building and soon had his typewriter at
work. Notice was sent to the heads OF
all departments and arrangements were
at once begun to have everything in
readiness for the throngs which are
expected next Sunday.
This afternoon United States District
Attorney Milchrist said it would be i'm
possible to prepare a bill for an iniunc-
ton in time to prevent the opening OF
the fair gates next Sunday. The Ma
tional Commission this afternoon ad-
journed until July /, this greatly com

Chicago
WORLDS FAIR, CHICAGO, May "a
There was not cloud in the sky to-day
and the Maine state building was dedi-
Gated in the presence of a large as
semblage. H. c. Burleigh, president
of the Maine Board of Worlds Fair
Managers, called the gathering to order,
and, after the invocation of the Deity,
he made speech delivering the build
ing over to Gov. Greaves, representing
the state of Maine. In his address he
spoke of the lively interest the citizens
of the Pine Tree State had taken in the
great exposition and of what they had
done to make the enterprise a success.
Gov. Cleaves responded and then de-
livered the building to the public to be
used especially us the home of Maine
citizens who may come to the fair. An
address in behalf of Maincborn citi-
Zens and the public generally was
made by John M. Jewett, of
Chicago. He referred to the
brilliant record of the Pine Tree
State, to the great men she had pro-
dnoe! and to the wonderful natural re-
sources of the state. Miss Georgia Cay

Furnaces.
prrrsDuRC, Kas., May 26.--As the
miners strike progresses new develop
ments are taking place, bat nothing
that points to settlement of the
trouble. President Walter, of the
Western Mine Workers. Association,
visited the mines Of W. & j. Lanyon, a
prominent smelter firm, and requested
the men to stop work. The men COM
piled and struck this afternoon. This
mine is operated solely to pro-
vide the Lanyon smelter with
coal. This is Il new phase
of the miners policy and may
result in the closing down of all the
smelters during the time of
the strike. President Walters
will go to Leavcnworth and Usage
next Monday to order the men out Of

Editor and Proprietor,
FIRMS WILL ACT ALONE.

Iron Manufacturers Favor the Carnegie
rian for Getting Wage Reductions.
P1rrsDuRG, Pa, May 27.-The move
ments of the Pttsburg iron manu-
facturers are Il matter of great interest
In industrial and business circles as the
time for the Amalgamated con-
vention draws near. More or
less definite rumOrs Of meetings
held to prepare Il manufactur-
ers' scale are in circulation, but the
utmost effort has so far failed to locate
any such meetings 1t is probable that
ONLY Il few manufacturers are concerned
in them if any are held, and it has been
asccrtained with almost absolute GER
tanty that no general meeting
OF the manufacturers has been
called This is somewhat unusual IN
view of the declarations that the ANAL
gamated scale must be reduced, and
that by this time last year the big mill
owners were comforting and had prac-
tically arranged their scale.
\ prominent manufactures explained
il as follows: II do not believe the
manufacturers will have any general
scale meetings this year. They got
pretty well disguised with them last
i
thing on account of the great variety of
interests. My idea of the policy which
will be pursued this year is that
the firms will act alone. They
will either sign the Amalga'aated
scale or they will not sign it; and
each firm will make it's own fight if
there is to be any fighting. If the
Amalgamated convention does not frame
a scale to which we can give our assent
my idea is that all there will be left for
MS will be to pursue Il policy like that OF
Carnegie and bring in outside men. 1t
would be no use sitting down to wait Tor
them to offer better terms for they could
endure longer than we could afford TO
let our plants lie idle. There IS al
WAYS work they can get in the summer
which would prolong the struggle. 1T s
10 be hoped that they will pursue the
good business policy of accepting the
logic Of the situation and offer to accept
wages in proportion to the selling price
of iron until the market gets better"
The proposition that any meetings
were being held or would be held was
denied by other manufacturers, who
thought nobody would take definite
stand until the policy of the coming
Amalgamatcd convention has been de-
Vclopcd. 1t is stated and not denied
bv President Garland that the innoVa-
Walton introduced by the conference
COMMITTEES in the matter of making set
Elements is likely to be made permanent
by Il law of the association at this con
vcntion That innovation was the
changing of the scale by the committee
which had no authority to change 1t
and the referring of the changes to 4
vote ofthc sub-lodgcs. The programme
for the convention proposes to make a
