Welcome.
PITTsBURG. Pa, Sept. 12.-Well on
towards midnight Monday night. that,
which to the members of the Union
Veteran legion attending the encamp-
ment and the Pittsburg members of
the organization, was, perhaps, the
most remarkable scene since the close
of the rebellion, took place when Gen.
John b. Gordon, one of the leading
commanders of the Confederate army,
appeared before a vast number of
Federal soldiers and raised his voice
for the obliteration of sectionalism, and
a united America. To say that the old
Union soldiers were responsive to Sen
ator Gordon's plea gives no adequate
idea of the reciprocal feeling mani
tested by the thunderous cheers and
hearty hand grasps with which the eN
confederate general was received.
1t was the regular meeting night of
Union Veteran Legion, and the hall
was thronged Gen. Gordon was the
first member of the Confederate army
to ever enter the hall. The great crowd

which profusely covered the speakers

trophe, pledging his devotion and that
of the eX-Confederates of the south to

He addressed the soldiers as comrades
and countrymen, and every time the
general in his calm. deliberate tones,
used these endearing terms, the audi
ence was visibly affected.
| AT the end of the eloquent address,
| three tremendous cheers were given.
Corporal Tanner responded in an ad-
dress of no less fervid eloquence, pledg-
ing the respect and admiration of all
real Union soldiers who fought and
suffered for such loyal, patriotic men
and soldiers represented by Gen. Cor
don. Corporal Tanners remarks were
delivered most earnestly and eloquent

Little, of Cincinnati, the daughter OF
the regiment, marched in solitary state
between the department commanders
staff and Il. A, +. Noyes post of Cincin-
natl. A big brass canteen was borne
aloft by Forsythe post, of Toledo,while
Ashland county post carried the rem
nants of its battle flags A tumultuous
reception was accorded throughout the
route to the comrades from New York.
This division was headed by a platoon
of veterans in black undress uniform
with white gloves and helmets, and
who kept step with precision that
insured them vociferous recognition.
In the New Jersey division there
were just ninety-two men in line. Cal
ifornia and Nevada divided twenty-five
between them; Maine showed up with
fifty; Rhode Island with the same num-
Der and New Hampshire with thirty.
The parade was beginning to get mo-
notonous when the department of the
Potomac created diversion with its
old guard, Kit Carson and Sumner posts
AS the guardsmen passed St Paul's
Catholic church it's sexton, who was
seated astride the cross at the top of
the spire. $50 feet from the sidewalk,
blew blast of greeting with from

band responded with call to quar-
ters,' and the intrepid climber returned
the recognition while the crowds in
the neighborhood cheered and shouted
themselves hoarse.
The joint delegation of Virginia and
North Carolina was forty strong, while
that of Maryland was five less. Ken
tucky was represented by one post.
Gov. Alger marched with Detroit Post

with posts from Indianapolis, Fort
Wayne and six other points. The rep
resentation from the far western states
and territories was nominal.
The final division was composed ot
the posts of the department of Penn
sylvania. They comprised more thar
one-third of the total in line and were
the redeeming feature of the parade.
There were battle flags by the score
miniature cannon, relics of the war o.
1872, infantile zouaves, precocious regi
mental daughters and other light fea
lures that caught the crowd. Delays
were numerous, and although there
were less than 10000 men in line, near

MURDERED IN HIS HOME.
An Aged and Wealthy Resident Slain
Near Detroit, Mich.

Near Detroit, Mich.
DETROIT. Mich, Sept. 10.-C.N. Chau-
vim. rs years of age, and wealthy
and prominent citizen of Crosse
Point township, was found murdered
in his home on the Crosse Point road
northeast Of the city late Sunday aft
ernoou. The murderers have not been
caught, but the officers claim to be
close upon their trail.
Chauvin lived as hermit in an iso-
lated place, Joseph Groesbeck, a
cousin of the deceased, called at his
house late Sunday afternoon and dis
covered Chauvins dead body on the
floor. On his head were three terrible
wounds, evidently inflicted by an ak.
The murderers had ransacked the
house, but probably found nothing of
much value, as Chauviu kept little
money with him. Persons in the vi
cinity claim to have seen two men go
to Chauvin's cabin in the morning and
afterward start from there toward the
city.
Chauvin had lived as hermit for
eighteen years. He was once a mem
Der of the Michigan legislature, had
held various local places of trust, was
an intelligent student and is estimated
to have been worth upward of $500, 900.
Three other attempts at robbing and
killing him had been made, but it was
| quite well known of late that he kept
nothing of value on his premises.

long threatened split in the Knights

night when Koerner lodge No. 9,
composed solely of German mem
bers, by unanimous vote seeded
from the parent organization. This
action, it is understood, will be fol-
lowed by all the German lodges in the
United States, which number about
%, 900 members. This lodge has no
members and was the instigator of the
meeting held here at the last ses-
sion of the supreme lodge, de-
manding the right to have the ritual
printed in German. Fiery speeches
were made and resolutions adopted
condemning the recent action of the
supreme lodge at Washington in re-
gard to the German ritual question
and denouncing the speech of Supreme
Chancellor Blackwell on the German
question. The plan for organizing the
German Knights of Pythias has not
yet crystallized.

Strong Winds Start Afrcsh Flames In che
Forests.


Forests.
ST. PAUL, Mimi, Sept. 10.-Alarm-
ing rumors have been coming in here
TO the effect that forest fiSes are
sweeping several counties of north
eastern Minnesota. The wires ara
already in a state of decentralization,
and south-bound trains due here Sun
day evening are delayed somewhere
between Hinckley and Duluth.
Bulletins from st. Cloud and Brain
erd say that the town of Princeton, a
village of 500 inhabitants in Mile
Lacs county, is in great danger and
that Barnum, Carleton county, is sur
rounded by fire which is swept by
such terrific wind that the place has
no chance of escape. Mcra, Mile Lacs
county, was surrounded by fire during
the afternoon and people ran for their
lives. The wind changed suddenly,
however, at nightfall and drove the
flames in another direction. If the
wind changes again nothing can
save the place. Soule's sawmill
and lumber yard between Milica
and Princeton were totally de-
! stroyed. The little station of Ground
House, near Mora is in great danger.
The wind was blowing gale at this
point at sundown and the worst is
feared. The Duluth fire department
IS fighting fires in the outskirts of that
city. Hincllley also seems to be again
in trouble.
AT Kerricll the inhabitants put in
| tine afternoon fighting the fires, but
| thought in the evening the danger was
over. At Kimberly, on the Northern
Pacific, only large gang of railway
| laborers saved the town. There was
a state of terror among the refugees
at Pine City when the st. Paul & Du-
luth limited passed through, for it was
feared another cyclone of fire was at
| hand.
HrNcKLEY, Mimi, Sept. 10.-Coroner
Cowan and party went to Sandstone
Sunday. where they buried eighty
bodies. There were no religious
services here Sunday, no clergymeu
being present, and number of the
people went to Pine City to attend the
memorial services in that city.
Five bodies were found Saturday
night in a cellar on hill just north OF
the Kettle river, and were buried
where found. 1t is believed here that
the death list in Pine county will eX
ceed 500 as something like 100 are still
unaccounted for, according to Coroner
Cowan's official statement.
