Standing Bareheaded in Her Hon
or, to Resume Their Hnts

AMSTERDAM. Sept. About 5000
working people, with barred heads, gather
ed On the Damplatz this morning under a
scorching sun, waiting to catch a glimpse
Of the young queer of Holland. The SOW
ereisn. however. sent an aide de camp to
the place. with the request that the spec
tators resume their hats. This thought
| fulnes5 on the part OF the queen was great
Iy appreciated By the immense crowd. and
evoked tremendous cheering from the wait
ing multitude.
The queen subsequently listened to the
singing of a grand chorus by 1000 scholars
She appeared nervous and unstrung and
mad requested that her subjects refrain
from cheering. The people respected the
young queens wish to the letter, and when
the singing by the scholars had ended
an absolute silence prevailed, which was
| more impressive than the mighty cheers
which had previously been given.
In spite of the orders that no members
| Of the royal families or of the nobility of
any other country than Holland be ad-
| nitted to the coronation ceremonies, Lord
Rosebery, who had been on board Baron
De Rothschild's yacht Rena, attended in
cognito.
The two queens watched the public en-
tertainments and also saw the exhibition
of the Netherlands Gymnastic League
Then followed the most picturesque event

| different epochs of Dutch history, 1t in
cluded squads of soldiery of the successive
periods. One group inlpsrsonlIed William.
the Silent. and the mobiles of his reign. and
another represented Prince Maurice on
horseback and in armor, reproducing the
famous state museum portrait The uni
forms of the ancient artillery companies
were faithfully copied from old engrav-

seventeenth century admiras appeared on
a triumphal modelled after the lines of
a battleship and bearing flags which had
been captured in battle.
Another group was composed of navigat-
ors, explorers and others commanded by
Frederick Henry, their followers carrying
captured Spanish standards. The repre-

British guards.
The last division of the procession Illus

BOUND TO HAVE SLEEPERS.
Causes Great Discomfort to
His Sick Men.

CAMP WIKOFF, L. I.,Sept. THE First
Illinois volunteers had expected to leave
for home this morning. Their baggage was
all sent to the train-about eight carloads
of it-and portion of the regiment was at
the station ready TO take the train, when
it was learned that there would not be
enough sleeping cars for the men. The
Illinois men will require about forty sleep
ing cars. Colonel Turner got telegram
that the cars were not ready, consequent
ly he declined to go until he knew posi-
lively whether the number of sleeping cars
needed would be ready for him on Jer-
sey side.
The baggage was all sent back to the
camp, and all the men returned.
Several hours after the general hospital
authorities had been notified that the First
Illinois regiment would go. ambulances
with the sick men OF the regiment began
TO arrive at the station. There were thirty
or forty. and they also had to be sent back
to the hospital. This was particularly hard
on the sick men.

Most of the delegates to the state con-

tomorrow are on the ground Tonight The
fight this morning between the two factions

have made certain split in that party,

between the Democrats and Populists and
Part of the silver Republicans. There will
be some difficulty in the distribution of The
offices, each party is anxious to name the
head of the ticket and the various candi-
dates.
The silver Republicans who recognize as
state chairman James II. Blood, National
Chairman Townes appointee. and who are
regarded as followers of Senator Teller.
are said to have agreed upon Frank c.
Goudy as their candidate for governor. The
Democrats are divided between the present
governor, Alva Adams, and Charles S.
Thomas. With the Populists, it Is said.
Judge Thompson, of the court of appeals,
is the fayorite.
The opera house, where the silver Repub-
lican convention IS called, is now in the
hands of the followers of Chairman Broad
Towne yesterday. and they are guarding
with an armed force. This faction is OPP
posed to fusion with the other silver parties
and will unquestionably nominate full
ticket.
Ii seems tonight that all danger of fur
ther serious trouble between the two fac
tions of the silver Republicans has been
removed. This afternoon members of the
Blood faction made application before
Judge Harris, of the district court. for a
writ of mandamus compelling Sheriff
Boynton to turn over the opera house to
them. Tonight citizens of Colorado
Springs took the matter in hand and the
result was a compromise by which both
sides relinquish all claims to the disputed
room. BY this agreement Judge Harris is
sued another order to Sheriff Boynton to
| let neither faction have possession of the
place. The Broad faction have secur7d the
| Coburn library of Colorado college. and the
Blood wing will meet at Durke's hall.
1t is impossible to learn anything about
! the man alleged to have been wounded in
the opera house fight, except that John L.
| Russell, of Denver. is not the man.
Late tonight the chances of fusion do
ont appear at all bright. The Populists
hold out for the head Of the ticket, to
which there is strong opposition from
both the silver Republicans and the Demo-
Gratis.

StubbOrnness.
WASHINGTON Sept IA cable mes
sage was received from Havana to-day
stating that the Spanish authorities alb
solutely refused to allow the steamer Co
NAL to land the provisions which she car
ried for the starving inhabitants of Cuba
unless the full duty was paid. Secretary
Alger thereupon ordered the duties upon
the million rations to be paid, and directed
that they be distributed under the supervis-
ions of the United States officers. What
ever opinion the department might have
of the action of the Spanish authorities. it
is believed that the United States cannot
afford to allow the people who are hungry
to suffer because the Spaniards insist upon
the payment Of the full duty. 1t Is also
stated by the secretary that the United
States insists upon conformity to Its or
NiZed where its flag still waves.

Two Negroes Fight and Shout Over
 Woman

The green-eyed monster, jealousy, which is usually the prologue to the many trage- dies among the negroes, in which shooting irons' play prominent part, has again gotten in it's work, and as a result Ed Darby occupies cell in the county jail with the charge of murder docketed against h.pa.
 Some days ago Hattie Thomas, wife of Charlie Thomas, who lives in Sloss quar- ters, had fight with Belle Edwards, an- other negro woman, whom she charged with having alienated the affections of her husband.
 Sunday afternoon Charlie heard of the difficulty and it is said repremanded his wife and 1t is said threatened to take her to the woods and kill her. It is alleged that he picked up rock and repeated the threat. The woman screamed and begged him not to kill her, which attracted the attention of Ed Darby, who came to the rescue and ordered Thomas to desist. This seemed to further anger Thomas and a dif- ficulty ensued between he and Darby, who pulled his pistol and fired twice at Thomas one shot taking effect in the abdomen, passing through the intestines and produc- ing fatal wound.
 Darby at once fled the scene, much ex- citement having been created by the shoot- ing. threats being made against his life by the infuriated negroes. The police de-
 nartment and sheriffs office were notified of the shooting and Chief Deputy War
