Boston. Oct 1.-THE residents OF
Boston and it's environs. augmented by
countless thousands of visitors from
other sections of the commonwealth
and adjacent states. today did homage
to Americas DISTINGUISHED sailor, the
vanquisher OF Montoio. The ordinary
affairs OF every day were almost en-
tirely abandoned. and all classes 81
citizens, from the expectant children
OF the primary schools to the governor
OF the state 'actuated by one sentiment,
contributed i'm one form or another 10
the spontaneous demonstration OF
which Admiral George Dewey. the third
admiral i'm the history of the United
States. was the central figure. The
stranger within the gates noted little
evidence OF that reserve which is said
10 be a distinguishing characteristic
Of the citizens of Boston.
The hearty greeting with which Ad-
miral Dewey was received when he ar
rived yesterday direct from his native
state, whose iubilant people for two
days had been bestowing honors upon
their favorite son. has been seldom IL
ever equalled here. but the preliminary
welcome was completely overshadowed
today and well nigh forgotten I'm
the greater demonstration by the
thousands TO the famous Nermonter
whenever he appeared in public. and
particularly when he rode through th-
city In the front ranks Of the brilhan
naval and military pageant which was
the chief event Of the day.
MANY STATES CONCERNED.
The demonstration really was one in
which all the states from Eastern can
ada TO Long Island Sound united 10

naval leader and his men for the tri-
umph of Nav l. 1898. in the Bay Of

yesterday the rail lines have been Chok-

In connection with Councilman Johnston's
attack on City Attorney Montgomery at the
council meeting Monday night Mayor Ensor
says that in the Elsfelder case he thinks
the city can recover from the gas company.
Elsfelder's son was playing about a gas
trench, near Twenty-third and N streets, one
evening about a year ago, when he fell in and
broke one of his arms. Suit was brought
by Elsfelder and a judgment rendered for
81 1000. At the time the franchise was granted
to the gas company a bond was executed
holding the city blameless for any accidents
which might occur during the laying Of
mains. The mayor is of the opinion that the
city can recover the amount of the judg-
ment by suing the gas company. In the
Mary Johnson judgment for $500 his honor
is inclined to think that the city might re-
cover something from the Schlitz Brewing
company. The Johnson woman was injured,
so 1t is alleged, by stepping into a post hole
in front of the Schlitz property, at the west
end OF the Q street viaduct. At the time OF
the accident the sidewalk and hitching posts
had been removed preparatory to the erection
of a new building. In her petition Mary
johnson asserts that she vas passing the
Schlitz property when she stepped into a
post hofe, inficting severe injuries.
AS yet the city council has taken no action
on the mayors suggestions, but it is held
by some that nothing could he lost by max
ing the attempt to recover from both the
Omaha Gas ompany and the Schlitz people.

SIOUX INDIANS HIT A SWIFT PACE.

Card of Good Races Furnish Enter
Inner During the Afternoon.
Yesterday afternoon C. NJ. Wilhelm OF the
executive committee of the exposition made
his debut as a manager of sporting events,
and succeeded in pleasing the large audience
which filled the grand stand at the race
course.
The first event on the racing program was
a pony race, with five entries and three
moneys. 1t was a half-mile dash, and was
won In fifty-six seconds by Poor Elk, with
Philip Standing Bear second and Yellow
Shirt third. The Indians started at the drop
of the hat and were off like three arrows
from the bow, with Yellow Shirt hugging
the pole. At the quarter he left the track
and bolted for an open gate, but was brought
back. though not until he had been dis
placed by both Philip Standing Bear and
Poor Elk. Down the stretch Poor Elk passed
Philip and won by a length.
The 100-yard foot race was won by Star
Comes Out; time, 10 seconds, with No Water
second, and Grant Kills-Twice third. All
three Indians were stripped to the breech
crout, and put up as pretty a race as has
been seen in these parts for a long time.
They got a good start, and came under the
wire so close together that an ordinary bed
blanket would have covered the three.
In the second pony race by Indians, there
were three entries, and two in at the finish.
George Thunder Horn had bad luck with his
horse, which was in the lead at the start.
At the quarter, the animal bolted the track,
cut across the country and came in ahead,
but was ruled out. The horses ridden by
Kills-on-Horseback and Little Soldier stuck
to the track and passed under the wire close
together. The race, however, was given to
the former, who covered the course in fifty
four seconds.
There was a cowboy race, with two entries
but as neither OF the riders won, the purse
was not delivered. The men got a good start,
but their horses left the track and could not
be coaxed to pass under the wire.
The last race was between the ponies
ridden by George Running Horse and Lone
Elk, with the latter winning. Both horses
got away in good shape and came dow the
stretch with George Running Horse In the
lead. He SHE'D at some object and his OPP
ponent passed him and came in ahead, win.
ming the money.

BENEFIT FOR COMPANY [
aides Auxiliary Rallies II Beautiful
Guilt to Proyide an Entertain
ment Fund.

The Ladies' Auxiliary of the Thurston
Rifles, assisted by the associate member
ship, entertained "wednesday evening for the
benefit Of the company now in San Francisco.
The event of the evening was the rafting OF
a beautiful fancy quilt made by the women,
which took place at a late hour. Two sofa
pillows were sold at auction and the pro-
ceeds from the rattle and auctions, together
with that from the refreshments and other
sources of income, made up a very sub
%stantial fund. This fund will be used In
some way for the entertainment of Company
l. upon its return. The plans have not been
fully matured, but a banquet is talked OF.
Among the guests of the evening were
Harry Whitman and R. w. Gillespie, who,
in company with Sergeant j. T. Buchanan,
had Just arrived from San Francisco. The
three ex-members of the First Nebraska are
thoroughly satisfied to be back home. All
of them held good positions in the customs
house at Manila, being respectively assist
ant cashier, cashier and secretary to the col
lector. They were unwilling, however, to
remain in Manila, even with a chance to
draw good salaries. They are not Athus-
iastic about the prospects of American in
vestors or wage-earners in the Philippines.

MUCH TO Be THANKFUL FOR
Important Statements in Queens Speech at
Propagation of Parliament,
PEACE CONFERENCE A PARTIAL SUCCESS
Permanent tribunal of AR
observation-disclosures of War in
south Africa-Dcp1ores
Drouth In India.

LONDON, Aug. 9.-Parliament was pro-
rogued at 2 o'clock this afternoon by royal
commission. The House OF Lords met and
summoned the Commons to the bar and the
proceedings terminated with the reading OF
the queens speech,
The queens speech contained the following
statements:
MY Lords and Gentlemen: My relations
with tho other powers continue friendly.
The conference summoned by the en-
peror OF Russia to consider measures for
promoting the maintenance OF peace has
completed its sittings. Although the result
of its deliberations did not fully correspond
with the lofty aims which 1t was summoned
to accomplish, 1t has met with a consider
able measure of success. The institution of
a permanent tribunal of arbitration cannot
fail to diminish the frequency OF war, whlle
the extension of the Geneva convention Will
mitigate its horrors"
After a reference to the conclusion OF the
Anglo-French convention on the subject OF
the Nile valley and the Anglo-Russian con-
vention in regard to railway enterprises in
China, the speech continued:
I'VE have received a petition from a con-
siderable number of my subjects residing
in the South African republic praying my
assistance to obtain a removal of grievances
ana disabilities OF WHICH lney COuuplaih'
The position of my subjects in the South
African republic is inconsistent with the
promise of equal treatment whereon my
grant of internal independence to that re-
public was founded and the unrest caused
thereby is a constant source of danger to
the peace and prosperity of my dominions
in South Africa. Negotiations on this sub
ject with the government Of the South Al
rican republic have been entered into and
are still proceeding
Another paragraph deals with the satistac-
tory reports of the recovery of the agricui-
ture and trade OF India from the depression
caused by the famine, but it adds fears are
now entertained for the prospects OF the
harvest in western and central India, owing
to the insufficient rainfall, though the Off
Gals are taking timely precautions to meet
any scarcity.
The speech then reads:
81 regret to add that plague, though still
confined tc tie total of 1919 areas affected
Turing the winter, shows no signs Of abate-
ment."
The speech thanks the Commons for the
liberality with which they have provided
for the naval and military defense of the
empire and concludes with references to the
benefits which may be expected from domes'
tic legislation passed.
