schemes, each representing to De the only sure way of bringing their wares to the attention of consumers of your countries. Now, by the establishment of the Philadelphia museum, with it's liberal and intelligent management, the problem of getting together has been solved thoroughly and happily for all concerned. We are heartily in sympa- thy with the great work that is being done through it.
 The movement seems sure to bring about advances in transportation facil- ities so that we may not be obliged, as MT. Pitkin expressed it, to pay large tribute to Great Britain for the priVi- lege of using the Atlantic ocean as billiard table, our products being sent to Liverpool in order to carom on South American ports.
 Peoples of the American republics have certainly not known each other well enough in the past. Your coming makes us realize how near we are geo. graphically some of you nearer to Con- necticut than some of our sister states of this republic, and how near we should be to each other in every way.
 We are all somewhat familiar with the Monroe doctrine, and that to me means that the republics of the Ameri- cas should be bound to each other by brotherly as well as by business ties in preference to alliances with coun- tries across the seas Your visit here will impel every schoolboy in the land, and all of our boys who go to school, to study your countries, your peoples and your language, with the result that by and by, when they are doing the busi- ness of the country and ruling its des- tinies, the true reciprocity we are work ing for to-day will be accomplished. and when man makes the proud boast that he is an American it will be l understood that while he may be a cit izen of any one of the American re- publics, he is for the unity and pros- perity of them all
 We are honored and gratified by your visit, and hope that you will be so im- pressed with our beautiful and busy city that all you have seen and are yet 1 to see in the course of your long jour ney will not crowd out the recollections 1 of it.
 | Arthur S. H. Hitchings of Rio de Janeiro responded for the visitors. He said, in part:
 l ~-N | tering upon this tour we have entered many a beehive. We have slipped the | honey, but have not felt once the sting of the bee. But nowhere have we been received with such enthusiasm as has I been displayed tonight As we en- tered your city some of my friends in | quired if we were coming to New Ha. ven This is indeed wonderful recep- | Iot l the feeling of brotherhood in all Amer jeans whether they be from the north l or from the south. We have learned much of your methods. It is only a question of time and of an exceedingly short time that America will be one | in commerce, one in sentiment, one in sociability."
 Each of the delegates were then in l troduced to Mayor Farnsworth at the close of MT. Hitchings remarks. The l company adjourned to rooms 10 and Il, where light luncheon had been spread l by Sparks & Co.
 | At 10 o'clock the visitors went to the Quinnipiack club, where they were well comed by General George H. Ford, who extended to them the courtesies of the house. General Ford referred to the
 desire on the part of the citizens of l New Haven to preserve the historic names, Quinnipiack being an instance, as 1t was the name of a celebrated tribe 1 of Indians.
 The Yale Glee club sang several songs referring to the university in honor of l MT. Harper, who is managing the vis- iting party he being graduate of Yale 1 'S6,
 l Captain loco cordeiro de Garca of 1 Rio de Janiero, who is one of the lead- | ing spirits of the party, led in cheering when the glee club had finished, crying out with enthusiasm Viva the youth of the United States" This was fol- lowed by the glee clubs giving the well l known Yale cheer, which took the vis- | itors by storm Then came three cheers
 and the tiger, led by Professor Chand- Ter
 | The affair at the club was purely an | informal one and much of the time was occupied in making arrangements for to-day's programme.
 1 The visitors will make tour of the | different industries of the city this morning. The party will be divided and will be in charge of different mem- bers of the chamber of commerce com- mittee.
 In the afternoon President Dwight,
 assisted by members of the faculty of
 the university, will receive them, after
 which visiting the factories will be re-
 stunned.
 In the evening there will be a shore
 dinner at Hills Homestead, which will | be the finale.
 The visitors will leave tonight for l Pittsburg.
