week full Of visitors and with every
arriving train bringing more, and the
decorations already in place make it
certain that it will present much
handsomer and more artistic appear
ance than it has ever done before.
The stands along Pennsylvania avenue
from which the parade will be viewed,
are much handsomer than usual, just
as the prices for seats are much higher
than usual. ranging from $500 for
the best to 81 90 for the rear seats in
the stands. There are seats for about
90, 900 in all the stands and the pres
ent demand indicates that they will
all be occupied, but those who see the
parade from seats will hardly be one
tenth of the total number ofspectators.
Many prominent men, including
Chairman Hanna, and four members
OF President McKinley's Cabinet are
already in Washington, and the corri-
doris of the principal hotels remind
one of scenes at a National Conven-
ton.
John Wedderburn, who figured in
the Courts as the defendant in suit
brought by W. r. Hearst, in connection
with the Examiner Claims Bureau,
and the Press Claims Company, both
of which Wedderburn originated and
both of which are now dead, has run
up against an official snag in the con-
duct of the business Of John Wedder-
burn & Co. Fifty-five prominent
patent lawyers of Washington, includ-
ing four ex Commissioners ofPatents,
have signed charges against the firm
Of Wedderburn & Co., and filed them
with the Post Office Department. for
conducting fraudulent business, and
asking that fraud order be issued by

feeling towards the bill, may be in
terred from the vote by which it was
passed, a7o to 5.
Senator Burrows believes, notwith-
standing the address issued By the
Silver Republicans last week, and the
positive assertion of Senator Dubois
to the contrary, that they will vote
with the Republicans forthe tariffbill.
Speaking on the subject Mr.. Burrows
said II have every reason TO believe
that while these gentlemen have an
nounced themselves as SILVER Repub-
licans, they viii cooperate with their
colleagues ofthe Republican party on
this line, and when we have secured
such legislation as will supply the
Treasury with necessary revenue for
Government support, it will be time

ton will not be able to engage to any
extent the attention of the public.
There-ya general feeling of relief
when it was announced that the SEN

after investigating the matter, report

A CORNER IN WOOL
Under Way for Buying Before the
Tariff Law Is Changed.

Boston, Feb. 28.-The Globe says.
One of the largest corners in wool
ever attempted in the United States
exists in Boston in anticipation of the
restoration of tariff on wool in the
near future by the Mckinley admins
tration.
The steamer Columbian, which ar
rived in port yesterday, brought g.
600 bales of wool, making total of
I2o, 100 bales which has arrived in
port during the present month.
A gentleman, who does not wish
his name mentioned, said that a
syndicate was recently formed in this
city to buy all the wool offered in
European markets in anticipation of
duty of 10 per cent being put on the
product by the Mckinley administra-
ton. The American buyers have
already purchased as. 900 bales of wool
abroad and will continue to purchase
up to the time of the imposition of
the duty. Agents of the syndicate
are buying Australian and South
American wool, and almost every
steamer coming to Boston for some
time, not to speak of special boats to
arrive, will be loaded with this cargo.
The syndicate has raised large
sum of money, and only few days
ago cabled So, 900, 900 to their London
agents. 1t is calculated that 1000, :
600 bales of Australian and South
American wool will be brought to
this country by the New England
syndicate within the given time, and
as each bale averages 500 pounds, it
means 500, 900, 600 pounds Of wool.

mcKuNLEY's CUBAN POLICY.
After Wedderburn Again Silver Re-
pubiicans-the Perrine Grant.
From our regular CORRESPONDENCE

rum OAt AEh0tHt N<fAAN4fFNhANAtfI
WASHINGTON. March SENATOR
Sherman has said enough to let all
the world know what the Cuban policy
of President Mckinley will be. To
boil it down, President Mckinley pur
poses to let the Spaniards and Cubans
fight it out without taking sides, and
to let both understand that American
citizenship has got to be respected,
something that has not been done
under the Cleveland-O lney Cuban
policy. Such a policy would have
prevented the exciting scenes in Con-
gress caused by the treatment which
Spain has been allowed togive Ameri-
can citizens in Cuba.
If Congress fails to dispose of all
the appropriation bills, it win not be
the fault Of the House, which passed
the last Of them several days ago.
The Senate has been in an ugly mood
since the Cuban excitement last week,
which was so suddenly brought to a
close by deal between Secretary Oh
ney and Spain, which resulted in the
pardon Of Julio Sanguily just as the
Senate was about to adopt resolution
demanding his unconditional release.
Senator Sherman announcement that
American citizens everywhere would
be protected by President Mckinley
administration also had a quieting
effect, but the ugly temper Of the Sen
ate has come to the surface in mum
Der of personal wrangles over unim-
portant matters.

f1cKlNLEY'S LEAVETAKINd.
Monday evening Peesident-elect
William Mckinley and party left
Canton. Ohio. for Washington. Allof
the military and civil organizations Of
the city turned out to honor their
most distinguished citizen. A press
report says:
When the Business Mems Associa-
ton was opposite the Mckinley gate,
the column halted and waited for
Major and Mrs. Mckinley aud their
attendants to enter the carriage in
waiting, This carriage was drawn
by four splendidly caparisoned horses.
and around it the members Of the
Canton Business Mems Association
stationed themselves as a guard Of
honor Mounted aides rode abreast
of the carriage horses, and the Bust
ness men completed the hollow square
in which the carriage moved.
The Mckinley arch. Just at the
foot of Market street hill. was illumi-
mated as darkness fell over the city
and shone Respondent as the column
marched under it. 1t was probably
illuminated for the last time tonight,
and the marchers as they passed look
ed back for a last glimpse of what IS
now the most conspicuous reminder
of the exciting campaign in Canton
last fall.
There was no detour from the direct
route to the station made by the
column. All along the line the car
rage containing the President-elect
and wife was kept in halo OF brill
liant light from fambeaux. At vari-
Gus points along the line colored FIRES
were burned and sky rockets and
Roman candles whizzed through the
i air. AS the head of the colum II
reached the train and halted the rear
pushed toward, and the crowds from
the sidewalks mingled with the
marchers until the platform and sur
rounding streets were filled with a
surging mass of humanity.
From the rear platform Of the train,
the Major made the following address
to his fellow townsmen,
MY neighbors and friends and
fellow citizens-On the eve of depar-
ture to the seat OF government, soon
to assume the duties of an arduous
responsibility as great as can devolve
upon any man, nothing could give
me greater pleasure than this farewell
greeting this evidence of your friend
ship and sympathy; your good will,
and, am sure the prayers Of all the
people with whom | have lived so
long, and whose confidence and es-
TEEN are dearer to me than any other
earthly honors.
ITO all of us the future is !=sealed
book; but, if can, by official act, or
administration, or utterance in any
degree add to the prosperity of our
beloved country and the comfort and
we'll being of our splendid citizenship,
| will devote the best and most un-
selfish efforts of my life. The as
( sumption of the chief magistracy is
of such grave Importance that parti-
sanship cannot blind the judgment or
accept any other considerations, but
for the public good Of all to every
party and every section.
with this thought uppermost in
my mind, reluctantly take leave Of
my friends and my neighbors, cher
ishing in my heart the sweetest
memories and the tenderest thoughts
of my old home-my home now, and
trust. my home hereafter, SO long
as l live. / thank you and bid you
all goodby."
