Thousands OF Spectators Witness the

men who guide the diplomatic relations
of three governments, and in the pres
ence of thousands of spectators, Presi-
dent Mckinley formally laid the cor
nerstone of the magnificent new fed
eral building of Chicago. The event
was the crowning feature of the weeks
celebration, marking the annual OBJ
servance of Chicago day. Long before
the hour set for the ceremonies, the
street surrounding the block on which
the steel skeleton of the new building
stands were packed from curb to curb
with pushing, jostling people, anxious
to get q glimpse of the nations presi-
dent and the distinguished visitors from
other countries, while every window in
the gaily decorated sky-scrapers sur
rounding the federal building, was
taken advantage of. The. distinguished
visitors included Vice President Maris-
cal and party of Mexico, Premier Lau-
rier of Canada and other notables of
that country and members of President
Mcklnley's CABINET.
Secretary Gage Presided.
Judge Christian G. Kohlsaat, presi-
dent of the committee on ceremonies,
introduced Secretary of the Treasury
Lyman j. Gage as presiding officer of
the cornerstone exercises. Prayer was
offered by Rev. Frank w. Gunsaulus
and Postmaster General Smith followed
withsa brief address.
The president then stepped to the
side of the uplifted mass of Illinois
limestone, and taking trowelful of
mortar from the board, he threw
it under the base of the stone.
AS he did so band that was stationed
in the reviewing stand played "The
Star Spangled Banner" and as the
notes of the national anthem were
heard, the crowd again broke into
cheers, the noise almost drowning the
music. President Mckinley then pro-
nounced the stone set and resumed his
seat as the workmen settled the stone in
its place.
Senator William E. Mason was next
introduced and made brief address in

The day parade began to form as
the ceremonies of laying the corner
stone of the federal building were being
concluded. At conclusion of the cor
nerstone ceremonies President McKin.
ley and the presidential party, with
other distinguished visitors, were es-
corted to the Union League club, where
they partook of hurried luncheon.
Luncheon concluded, the presidential
party were driven to their places in the
line.
The spectacular feature of the festival,
the parade of all nations, took place
during the evening and was viewed by
thousands, the streets in the down town
district being literally solid mass of
humanity for the entire length of the
parade. The parade, in which marched
representatives of IA countries, includ-
ing Germany, Venezuela, Switzer-
land, Brazil, The Netherlands, Aus
t1ia and Hungary, Scotland, Arme.
MIA and Assyria, Belgium, China, Italy
and the United States, included nearly
30 floats, some of them extremely beau

Beers Have Everything to Gain by Quio'
Action and Hostilitie. Arc Likely to
Begin at Any Time-Expectod tho First
Battle VIII OCCUR in the Vicinity of
AIafeking.
LONDON, Oct. lit cannot be
doubted that England's reply will be a
fat rejection of President Kruger's de-
mands and that at the time set for an
answer an actual state of war will
exist.
Fridays cabinet council will have to
deal with the military situation and
parliament will have little else to do
but to sanction tho necessary credits.
Speculations as to the outcome of the
crisis have now given way in the news
papers to the discussion of military and
strategical matters.
AS the British troops are landing in
South Africa and are advancing to the
front it is quite possible, according to
the terms of the Boer ultimatum, that
hostilities have already commenced, as
Kruger has everything to gain by an
instant advance. Until the arrival of
the army corps it is probable the Brit
ish will everywhere remain on the de-
fensive.
Where Fighting Is Probable.
Looking at the complicated nature Of
matters it is almost useless to speculate
at the present stage, but sharp fighting
Is likely to occur at Mafeking, where
Colonel Baden-Powell is pluokily hold
ing his exposed position. AS the gen.
| erals have decided not to attempt to
hold the country north of Dundee the
Beers will doubtless occupy Laings Mex
and advance along the railway towards
Glenoile and Dundee. These places,
however, are considered quite safe
against Boer attack.
The Daily Chronicle editorially says
It is compelled to admit that the Boer
ultimatum, unhappily worded as it is,
makes war unavoidable.
Editorial articles in other papers gen.
orally express pity for President Kru-
gers precipitancy, which places the
Transvaal technically in tho wrong.
The Standard says:
The Transvaal's worst enemies could
hardly have supposed that its arrogance
would lead it to such an extravaganza.
Impossible to Withdraw Now.
The first minister to speak publicly
regarding the ultimatum was Lord
James of Hereford, chancellor of the
duchy of Lancaster, who, speaking al
Aberdeen, said:
"The government has done every
thing in its power to preserve peace
Apparently, however, diplomacy il
ended and the hopes Of peace are vir
tually destroyed, and that not by the
action Of the queens government but
by the Transvaal government. Presi'
dent Kruger has sent an ultimatum. II
we were to withdraw our troops at his
bidding we should suffer the greatest
humiliation and the government would
deserve to be hunted from Office as
craven towards"
Lord James said he had intended be-
fore receiving the news of the ultima
tum to take different view Of the
position, but now nothing remains but
to commend our cause to the God o1
battle and arms and implore his bless
ing upon the engagement about to be
entered upon.

RYAN SEEKS INJUNCTION
Against the Seaboard Air Line Con-
Solfdation.

Richmond, Va, Dec crnber 20-In the
United States circ>iT court here this
evening, a bill was filed by Thomas F.
Ryan against John Shelton Williams,
]. w. Mittendorf and others.
Application was made before Judge
Waddiil, sitting as circuit judge, for
a preliminary injunction to restrain the
defendants from taking any steps to-
wards consummating the consolidation
of the railroads of the Seaboard Air
Line system with the Florida Central
and Peninsula and Georgia and Ala
bama roads.
After argument lasting until after
n.G~:Git Judge Waddill held that there
was no case for preliminary injunction
to restrain the defendants as sought
especially to restrain the voting of the
stock of the Raleigh and CASTOR Rail-
road Company at its meeting Of stock
holders of the 21st instant (tomorrow)
at Raleigh, especially as it is a corpor-
alton of the state of North Carolina.
The judge suggested that a speedy
hearing take place and it was arrang-
ed that an application for injunction
would be heard on December 2Sth in
Richmond, at which time all the ques-
tions in the case will be considered,
with leave to parties to file affidavits.
The result is that there can be no in
reference with the stockholders of the
Raleigh and CASTOR at the meeting to
be held tomorrow.
This decision was given with the un-
derstanding that the Seaboard and
Roanoke Railroad Company will dc
nothing in the meantime towards the
proposed consolidation.
