A heavy down pour early in the evening made il quite damp under foot and a great many who had intended to be on nand reluctantly concluded to remain It home. Those who did attend how syer were well paid for their trouble for the crowd though small was quite jolly, the music wac of the best, and the floor was in good condition.

MINISTER CLAYTON PRESENTED
He Makes Gracious Speech to President
Diaz Who Cordially Replies.

Mexico City, Mex, May 13.-General
Powell Clayton, the newly appointed Min
lister Of the United States, officially pre-
scented his credentials to President Diaz
at noon to-day in the hall Of the ambass-
adors. The State coachers, bearing the
arms Of the republic, were sent to the
hotel where the Minister is residing, for
himself and family. On arriving at the
place they found large detail of army
officers assembled to greet the party,
while many prominent American resi-
dents were present. General Clayton
was dressed in the full uniform of a briga-
der general Of the United States army
and made soldier-like appearance. His
speech communicated assurances of his
desire to cultivate still closer bonds with.
the government Of Mexico and he assured
General Diaz of the sympathy and good
will of the American people. The Presi-
dent replied in most cordial speech and
the minister and family were taken back
to their hotel in the State carriages.

CHIPLEY LACKS THREE VOTES.

Thought That in Day or Two he Will
Win the Florida Senatorship-Next
Election of Senator May be Settled by
Popular Election.
Tallahassee. Fla. May 13.-The Oath
ballot for United States Senator was
taken to-day. During the past week
Judge George p. Raney's vote has been
gradually shrinking and his name was
withdrawn from the list before the bal
loting began. The result was:
Chipley, Al: Stockton, Al; Hooker. 8:
Burford. 1; Blank, 1; necessary to a
choice. so. r.
Chipley thus fell three votes short of
the number necessary to elect
and his supporters are more confident
than at any time since the contest began
that he will, in day or two, pick up
enough of the scattering members to
win. Raney's former support was divi-
ded to-day between Chipley, Stockton
and Hooker. A resolution was adopted
declaring it to be the sense of the joint
assembly that at the general election
next proceeding the next election of Uni
ted States Senator, the voters of the
State should vote for Senator and that
the members of the legislature should be
morally bound by the decision of the

SENATOR EARLES CONDITION.

An Analysis of his Trouble Shows Him
to be by no Means out of Danger.
Charleston, S. c., May ia special
from Greenville to the News and Courier
says:
The condition of Senator Earle to-day
was about the same as yesterday; perhaps
was about the same as yester-
day; perhaps slightly more favorable.
At this stage of the disease, the
symptoms are as favorable as can be
expected and reason backs the hope that
he will recover beofre the afflictiOn be-
comes chronic but this is by no means
certain. The trouble may be overcome in
the acute stage, which lasts about three
weeks. When this stage is passed there
will be one of three results, "a perma-
nent cure, chronic Bright's disease, or
DEATH" so it will be seen that while the
symptoms are now more favorable the
Senator is by no means out Of danger.

THE LEONA DISASTER.
An Investigation shows a New undrilled
Crew and all Around Negligence.


New York, May 13.-The local Board
of United States steamboat inspectors
examined to-day into the fatal fire on the
Mallory line steamship, Leona, last Sun
day, and developed the fact that the crew
was a new one, almost to man; that
they had not all been given their stations
in case of fire, and had not been drilled
for fire duty. This was shown by the
evidence of Captain James Wilder, OF
the Leona, who also said that the fire, a
few minutes after it's discovery, emitted
such a binding smoke that it was impossl-
BILE to get near the steerage, where thlr-
teen people were suffocated and burned to
death. He believed that the lgnltlng OF
matches was the cause of the fire.
First Officer Wallace testified that he
did not give the alarm at the time of the
discovery of the fire, but ran on the deck
to notify the Captain; that he then re-
turned to the steerage and endeavored to
arouse the passengers, but it was impOs-
sible to save the immigrants who were
hemmed in by fire, the matches having
been stored on the deck alongside Of the
steerage.
AS all the Leona's passengers had been
sent on to Galveston on Tuesday, the
investigation was confined to the exam
nation of officers and members of the
crew of the steamer.
