The all absorbing topic of conversation
city today is the annual parade and inspec-
tion of the Police and Fire Departments.
Interest in the coming event has been keen
for the past month and has been gradually
increasing until now it is at fever heat
because of the announcement made by
Major Sylvester that it had been decided
to hold the annual parade of both depart
ments on the 7th of the coming month.
The announcement has been received with
the greatest enthusiasm, and everywhere
preparations are going on for what is re-
garded by freladdies and bluecoats as
the event of the year. Not only has the
date been decided on for the annual parade
but Major Sylvester in addition has an
nounced that the annual inspection and
drill of the policemen will be held during
the first week in November SO that II would
be concluded before the date set for the
joint parade. ---------
While the parade of the two departments
excites generous amount Of interest, par
ticularly among those who participate, it
becomes secondary in Importance compared
with the inspection and drill of the police.
The latter event among policemen Is con-
sidered to be paramount to everything that
occurs during the year. AS is known, the
result of the inspection and drill not only
shows which OF the various precincts has
the best appearing and best drilled police
men, but determines which precinct shall
become the proud possessor Of the John
B. Wight prize silk flag This flag was
presented to the Police Department in 1897,
with the understanding that 1t was to be
competed for every year. Immediately
after it was presented, the various lieuten-
ants of police set about to perfect the Of
fcers under their respective commands in
the manual and regular military drill, as
far as it is embraced, with the one object
in view of winning the prize trophy and
enjoying the proud distinction of being
known as the commander of the premier
body of policemen

PARIS IS DOOMED
A Strong Wind is Blowing Her Land
 ward

Coverack, Cornwall, June 10.-The Amer ican line steamer Paris, which ran on the rocks off the manacles May 21, is now known to be doomed. A southeast wind is blowing, bringing in heavy seas, which are driving the steamer astern landwards. Her boilers have shifted, her false bottoms are gone and the divers are unable to work. The officers of the steamer leave here to- day.
 With the exception of about a dozen men, who remain with the captain and three of ficers all of the crew of the Paris have left her.
 On the arrival of the last members of the crew at Falmouth to be paid off, fracas occurred with the agents and the under writers.
 The agents refused to pay the mems fare home, which the sailors strongly resented, as they had stood by the ship until nearly the end.
 There Is now nearly thirty feet of water in the hold of the Paris
 The quartermaster, who was on deck when the steamer struck, says that he saw warning flare from pilot boat but that Paris was in a dangerous position. The ships helm was nearly Starboard in order to clear the pilot boat and the course, west northwest, was immediately resumed. He adds that but for this temporary alteration the Paris would have sunk alongside the Michigan.

STREET CARS TIED UP
Nine Hundred Men Go on Strike in
 Cleveland

Cleveland, O., June 10.-There will be a long and bitter fight between the Cleveland Electric railway and It's 300 employees. It began this morning and tied up all of the lines operated by the company, which are the only means of transportation for more than hundred thousand people. The strike is mainly for the recognition of the union, and the men have been preparing for it for several weeks.
 It is understood that the company has employed other men from other cites to take the places of the strikers. Only about a half dozen cars were operated today, and these were under guard of deputy sheriffs and were operated by imported men. few mail cars were run by the strikers, who say they will not obstruct the mail. There were several riotous demonstrations today, but none of a serious nature. There will be no further attempt to move cars until Mon day. There is some talk of a sympathetic strike of the Little Consolidated" road, of which Senator Hanna is president and which employs several hundred men.

WEYLER'S PICTURE
 ON ASPANISH FLAG Borne at Head of Party on Way to Embark for Spain. BRAVERY OF TWO CUBANS They Refused to Cry Viva Espano!" and Were Roughly Handled by
 the Mob-The Cab Strike
 Still Fiercely On.
BRAVERY OF TWO CUBANS

Havana, June 10-An immense Spanish flag, with a picture of General Wey Ter on 1t, was borne today at the head of a party of fifty Spaniards who were on their way to embark for Spain. AS the party proceeded it's members cried Viva Espanaw Two Cubans, Carlos Cruzado and Miguel Atiezz, were met by the Span- iards who endeavore1 to compel them to hurrah for Spain.
 This the cubans sturdily refused to do, replying with shouts of ''viva Cuba Libre!' The leader of the mob, Mora, attacked Atiezz and was assisted by his companions. Atiezz was roughly handled and received a number of bruises, the police interfering and arresting Mora, but sent the remainder of the party on board ship.
 The cab strike Is still on.
 Numerous complaints have been made to the mayor, Senor Perfecto LaCoste, by re- tail merchants whose business suffers greatly in consequence of the strike, as people who are not absolutely compelled to come to the heart of the city prefer to remain at home and leave their shopping to be done at some other time. A majority of the storekeepers of Obispo and O'Reilly streets claim that they have suffered a loss of 70 per cent since the strike began.
 The mayor has made every effort to se- cure a peaceable solution of the problem, but has so far been unsuccessful It is hoped, however, that the difficulty will be settled tonight, when it is said that the owners will concede the greater part of the demands of the men. Private stables are reaping a harvest, charging for convey ances at the rate of $4 in gold per hour, and all their vehicles are engaged.
 The soldiers at Camp Columbia are still living in tents, the barracks for their ac- commodation not having been finished. The daily rains are causing them great an- noyance. The tents are of brown canvas which was thought to be the best obtaina- be for the climate, but has proved to be utterly unfit The chemicals used in the dye eat the fibre and makes the tents leak after a week of exposure. The daily rains soak quickly through and drench the sol- diers wno are disgusted All the .ests have wooden floors and if the barracks are not soon completed sickness will develop although under the present conditions ,he health of the soldiers is rcnafka.l.f

TORPEDO BOAT
 WAS LAUNCHED The Stringham Built by Harlan
 6 HollingsWorth. NAMED BY MISS CREIGHTO Has Seventy Tons More Displacement Than the Farragut, and is Twice
 as Large as Any Torpedo
 Boat in the Navy
NAMED BY MISS CREIGHTON

Wilmington, Del, June 10.-The torpedo boat Stringham, which Harlan & Hollings- worth are building for the government was launched today.
 Miss Edwina Stringham Creighton, grand daughter of the late Admiral Stringham and daughter of the late Rear Admiral Creighton, gave the vessel its name. There were guests from New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington. The Washing ton party comprised Charles H. Allen, as- sistant secretary of the navy; Major-Gen- eral Nelson A. Miles and wife, Rear Ad- mi,al Hichborn and wife, Judge Advocate General Lemley, Captain Dawson, Naval Constructor Spear and wife, Naval Con structor Taylor, Rear Admiral and Mrs. Endicott and others
 The Stringham is the largest and most costly torpedo boat designed for the gov ernment and upon completion will be the pioneer of the ocean going boats of her class. Her guaranteed speed is thirty knots an hour.
 The construction of the vessel was au- thorized in March, 1897, and the following June the contract was awarded Her keel was laid March 21 1898. Her length is 225 feet, breadth ,22 feet, draught feet and 6 inches, and displacement $40 tons. This is seventy tons more than the Farragut and
 
 twice as large as any other American tor pedo boat built or building. She will have two vertical triple expansion engines of combined 7,200 horse power which is greater than thot of the cruisers Detroit and Montgomery, 2,000 ton ships, and nearly twice as large as that of the Atlanta and Boston.
 The Stringham will have bunker ca- pacity of 120 tons of coal, which will en- able her to steam straight away over 1000 knots.
 Her armament will consist of two 1s-inch Whitehead torpedo tubes and seven G. pounder semi-automatic guns, and will be fought by a complement of four officers and twenty-eiGht men.
 The vessel is named after Rear Admiral Sias Horton Stringham who died in Brooklyn at the age of IS years after a service of siXty-seven years in the navy, starting at the age of Il years as mid- shipman.

GERMANS COMPLAIN OF STRICT SECRECY Wart Proceedings of tho Peace Con-
 ference Printed. GIVE RISE T0FALSE REPORTS Americans Confident of Adoption of Some
 Of Their Projects. A PERMANENT COMMISSION Of Arbitration Will Be Insisted Upon By the Delegates from the United
 States - Brussels Confer

GIVE RISE TOFALSE REPORTS
PERMANENT COMMISSION

The Hague, June 10.-The chief delegates to the peace conference met today to dis cuss the German complaints against the secrecy imposed upon the delegates and the consequence of misleading reports published, and it is understood Count Munster head of the German delegation, was instructed to propose that the pro- tocols for the plenary sittings of the com- mittees be published immediately after they are drawn up.
 American delegates tell the repre- sentative here of the Associated Press that they are still confident of the adoption of some of their chief projects for arbitration, but the preliminary discussion yesterday indicates the impossibility of maintaining them all
 For instance, it is impossible to carry the proposal that the judges of the arbi- tration tribunal be elected by the highest court of justice of each country as some of the European countries do not possess . a judicial organization permitting such procedure.
 It is expected that the likeliest outcome will be that each country will be free to choose the manner of nominating its own judge.
 The Americans propose to insist upon a permanent commission They will also in- sfst on other points.
 Brussels Conference Section
 The Brussels conference section met to- day, Professor De Martens of the Russian delega tion presiding. M Bihound of the French delegation submitted article of the conference re-drafted, which was unani- moasly adopted.
 Article 3 was adopted after discussion, but article was rejected. M. Rolyn, one Of Slams delegates, offered an amendment to article 5, which was adopted, subject to slight future modification.
 Major General Sir John Ardagh, one of the British delegation. declared that Great Britain could not bend herself to sign convention drawn from the Brussels con- ference of 1874. but must reserve the right of judging of the necessity or expediency Of abiding by the stipulations of that con- ference or this conference in general orders to her armies in the event of war or of opening a campaign. Professor De Martens replied that Russia did not ask the powers to sign convention until the Brussels con- ference, but desired the powers to under take to embody the stipuations now agreed upon in the instructions given troops at the opening of congress-
 General Ardagh's declaration was only Of a personal character, and he would consult his government on so important matter. A meeting of the principal delegations will be held today to require Count Munster to decide the question of communications with the press, but owing to the failure of the delegates to agree the meeting adjourned sntil Monday.

CRISIS FASTENED
 IN TRANSVAAL Probable Result of Incident at JOhan- leSburS. SITUATION MOST SERIOUS The British Government is in a Tight
 Fix. OPEN MEETINGS NOT ALLOWED Suggested That United States Offer It. self as Mediator, Though the
 Matter Has Not Yet Been Formally Presented.
SITUATION MOST SERIOUS
'PEN MEETINGS NOT ALLOWED

London, June 10.-It is not improbable that a crisis in the Transvaal will be has tened today by some untoward incident at Johannesburg.
 J. B. Robinson, the South African mill lionaire and mine owner received a tele- gram today from his agent at Johannes burg saying the situation there is most serious
 The agent added that mass meeting of Uitlanders will be held today in order to confirm and support the proposals of the British high commissioner, Sir. Alfred Milner.
 As open air meetings are not allowed without permission, it is not improbable if the necessary permission is not obtained, that the police will endeavor to stop the meeting.
 The concensus of opinion among promin- ent Uitlanders and South African capi- talists in London is that the British gov ernment is in tight fix, and it can not retreat from it's position, and if President Kruger does not recede war is inevitable.
 Regarding the suggestion that the United States be asked to mediate between the Transvaal and Great Britain, Joseph H. Choate, the United States ambassador, says: While every good American would welcome the possibility of helping a solu- tion of the political situation, we have not been approached in the matter and I per- sonally know nothing of this proposed med itation by America
 An official of the foreign office in con versation with representative of the As- sociated Press, says: We have not ap- preached America, nor has America ap- preached us in the matter, and it is very unlikely that America will be asked to do anything of the kind, much we value the good feeling existing between the two countries"

EQUAL POLITICAL RIGHTS
Is the Only Remedy, Say the Uit

Johannesburg, June 1o.-At the mass meeting of the Uitlanders held here today for the purpose of confirming and support ing the proposals of Sir Alfred Miner the British high commissioner, a resolution was adopted declaring that mo sentiment will be satisfactory which does not pro- vide for the recognition of equal political rights for all."
 President Kruger's proposals were con- sidered as wholly inadequate to satisfy the just demands of the Uitlanders, and while Sir Alfred Miners were the irrelia- ble minimum acceptable. The meeting was orderly and was attended by 5000 Uitlan- ders. The government Is not advising the enfranchised burghers to allow the meet ing to proceed.

Arbitration May be Knocked Out

Washington, June 10.-According to pri- vate advices reaching here from The Hague, there Is great danger that one and all of the arbitration schemes before the conference will fail. It is said that Ger many is markedly hostile to the arbitration principle and is making an active canvass to secure the support of some of the sec- ond-rate powers in her opposition.
 If this movement is successful, even to a limited degree, it is feared that arbitration is doomed, so far as this conference is con- cerned, for, to carry any weight and show practical results, the delegates must be nearly unanimous.
