The work on the unfinished build

vigor during the past week, especially
on the magnificent structure for the
United States government. and all
buildings will be ready for the exhibits
by April 5 or April 10. Such satisfac-

be ready for the opening day, May 1,
and the sight presented will be incom-

handsome and stately buildings has
previously been given, so suffice it to

relatives and friends.
The pail bearers were her former school
mates. There were flower offerings from
the friends and neighbors. Although her
body lies beneath the sod the strange
mystery OF her sudden death has grown
until it is the ll-absorbing topic not only
in and about Boston, but throughout the
en1ire State. The police seem to be no
nearer the solution than ever. It is re-
garded as singular and suspicious fact
that Mrs. Barrett steadily refuses to di-
yulse the name of the mysterious man re-
ferred to in Miss Barrett's note as the per-
son who lost her $780, the best part of her
little fortune. Some of the detectives at
work on the case insist that this is the
starting point in the unraveling of the
tangled mystery. 1t was learned to-day
for the first time that the dead girl knew
intimately many prominent men about
town, and that she had of late been very
extravagant, driving great deal in hired
carriages and entertaining at the most ex-
elusive hotels.
Her employer, however, remains firm
in his belief of her true worthiness, and
denies any embezzling in spite of the fac t
that the cashb was destroyed, pre-
sumably by her hands. He still sticks to

PARIS. FRANCE, July 27.-M arquis Ito
day denied that he was here to protest
ag ainst Hawaii's annexation.
NEW YORK, n. Y, July 27.-The
Herald prints a lengthy interview with
Marquis Ito in Paris wherein he says:
II do not think it possible that the op-
position manifested in Japan to the
annexation of the Sandwich Islands will
take any more extended form than
the mere protest made in order that the
interests ofJapan on those islands may not
suffer injury. Japan is simply seeking to
protect herself and her subjects, and this
she has perfect right to do. but that she
will look after hec interests in other than
dignified diplomatic way is absurd.
1.-The Emperor I know will not support
any bellicose policy. All my friends in
the ministry or in control of the different
branches of the Government are OF the
same mind as the Emperor and the Japa-
nese public sentiment is one of strong
friendship for the United States. Thus
the Hawaiian question cannot possibly
bring about a conflict. either armed or
diplomatic, with the Americans, in spite
of the iingoes."
