capt Hall, a speech, a spee,h,' was
the next call.
Capt. Hall responded in few words
and delegated Mr.. Sproul of Chester, Pa,
to make more elaborate speech. Mr..
Sproul pleasingly addressed the guests,
paying high compliment to the manage
ment of the Maine Steamship company
and wishing it abundant success.
Ex-Mayor Charles F. Libby was next
called on for speech. AS stakeholder
OF the company and citizen of Portland,
he expressed pleasure at meeting SO many
men who are closely identified with
the Maine Steamship company's inter-
ests. He had enjoyed their presence here
year ago and was glad to see among
the company SO many familiar faces. He
discoursed on the beauties of Portland
and Its suburbs, and bestowed especial
praise upon the Portland Railroad COM
pany and it's Riverton park. Referring
to the Spanish trouble, which has affect.
ed shipping interests in no small degree,
he said that out of this war will come
one great blessing-the drawing together
Of the English speaking people of the
world. He spoke of Names close prox.
unity to British. possessions, and of the
pleasant relations that have long existed
between our people and Canada. He
praised the Grand Trunk railroads treat
ment of Portland and predicted that this
city Will figure more prominently than
ever in the international commercial re.
lations.
Mayor Randall won.the good opinions
of the visitors. by his response to theil
calls for speech from him. He said
portland is always glad to welcome
friends from other cities, and especially
from New York. He extended to them the
good wishes of one Of the best and pretti.
est cities in the United States. He also
said good word for Riyerton and the
Portland Railroad management.
Col. FIN. Dow made a fitting speech,
which was enthusiastically received. He
said that New Workers naturally think
of Portland as a little city, way down
on the eastern coast. but its Importance
as commercial city is worthy of recog-
milton. While the c1ty's area is less than
that of almost any ward in New York,
yet the records Of its custom house show
that in certain lines Of expectation Port,
land is second only to the great Metropo-
lis of the country. He expressed the sem
timent that such gatherings as this serve
to cement that feeling Of citizenship
which binds one section Of our country
to another, and which tends to make all
Americans ready and willing to serve
their country, not only in war, bat in the
time of peace, which, we trust, will come
in the near future.
Brief remarks by ex-Alderman S. B.
Kelsey, song by Capt. John B. Coyle,
and the singing of "Star Spangled Ban
ner,'' concluded the session in the ban
quet hall.
The visitors we're next escorted to the
Riverton theatre, where an hour was de-
lightfully spent. On their return to the
city half the. partySwent to the Preble
house and the others to the West End
hotel
Tomorrow's programme will include
an excursion down the bay, trip to
Cape cottage, and clambake there, and
a visit at the Gem theatre.

nine miles TO that place. They suffer.
ed intensely with the cold. They were

tons of -four and 500 tons of copper.
shipped on account of the NortheI
Steamship company. The Orr went
ashore about the same time the
Tampa did. The coast is very
rocky, the shore sliding into deer

was insured for Sl45.OOO. Her cargo
was worth $780, 600. The Tampa was
