JOAN OF ARC CELEBRATION.
Archbishop Ireland, of ST. Paul, the
Orator of the Occasion.


ORLEANS May S-The annual cele-
bration of the deliverance OF Orleans by
Joan of Arc was held here to-day with
the customary ceremonies. A salute of
twenty-one guns was fired at sunrise and
all the bells in the city were rung. At 10
o'clock the municipal and other bodies went
to the cathedral, which was decked with
flowers and flags, as is the custom on grand
occasions. The nave was festooned with
drapery and flags. There was an enormous
crush Of people seeking admission to the
cathedral. cantata was rendered by 500
performers. Among those present was col
lateral descendant of Joan of Arc, an artil-
lery captain named Delagatta, who is sta
toned at Versailles. Archbishop Ireland,
the orator of the occasion, spoke in French.
In beginning his address Archbishop Ire
land said that If there were any surprise
that a stranger should be the orator on such
an occasion as this. it must be remembered
that Joan of Are not only belonged to
France but to the human race generally.
After a eulogy on Joan of Arc the arch
bishop said he was happy to seize the oc-
casion to tell of his unspeakable affection
for France. which was the land of youth
and the school of his soul.
After the grafton a cortege proceeded
to the site of the old fort of Tournells,
which was captured by Joan of Arc on
May s. 1929. The procession included OFF,
cials of the department and city, the fire
brigade and many civic societies. The
route along which the procession passed
was lined with troops. Afterwards the
cortege returned to the cathedral, where a
TIE Deum was sung. Tonight there were
fireworks and a torchlight procession.

central figure at the annual meeting to-day

with a beautiful book Of the record of the
society's work.
A letter from President Mckinley was
read. expressing warm appreciation of the
labors of the society. 1t saws: This is a
great year for the Anglo-Saxon race, and the
sailors of both Nations are coming in for a
full share OF praise for their splendid
achievements"
Mr.. Choate, on rising, was received with
ringing cheers and the audience rose to its
feet en- masse. Mr.. Choate made a brilliant
speech. He made a happy hit by saying,
with reference to the name of the society,"
that he was neither British nor foreign, but
simply an American. But" added Mr.
Choate. every American is entitled TO feel
sympathy with such society as this, in
view Of its historic interest. inasmuch as it's

NEW YORK, May 9.-The press says:
"In a statement to the press last night
Chas. b. Squires said: 'If Attorney General

representing the three men he mentions,

warned Monnett to keep away from him
and by all means not to resign or drop the
prosecution, as the talk would be that he
had been bribed. Later I learned that the
man had no connection with the Standard
Oil Company; that he was a promoter and
evidently had tried to approach the attor-
ney general merely on his own hook and
without any authorization whatever from
the Standard Oil Company. i cannot under
stand why the attorney general-if he did
so-could say I attempted to offer him a
bribe. 1t is absurd and untrue. The con-
trary is the case. warned him to beware

president OF the Island of Negros, arrived
here to-day bearing letters of introduction
from General Otis. His mission is TO pur-
chase steamers for trade among the islands

NJ Lacson said: The proclamation of the
American commissioner is entirely satisfac-
tory. 1t gives us autonomy and greater lib
erty than We demanded. We believe that
America will not fool US with treaties as
Spain fooled us. Aguinaldo was honest as
long as he was under the influence Of
Dewey and Wildman. but he listened to
the statements Of the HongKong Junto,
who are American traitors. Negros wants
nothing to do with Aguinaldo's proposed
peace conference. We are as loyal as New
