There was some talk indeed, of holding
public meetings at which to fete the hero

thrust himself into the breach, dared the
vilification of the partisan organs, and
set the bark of truth, swerved from its

Great Exposition.

Speeches of President LOubet and Min

Extent of American Exhibits.

Paris April 1.-THE exposition OF
1900 is open. but it will be at least a
month before anything but buildings is
to be seen. The days ceremonies were
a peculiar mixture of sumptuous splen.
dor in the Sale des Fetes, and wide
spread confusion elsewhere. Nothing
could have exceeded the picturesque
stage setting in the beautiful building
in which the ceremonies were held, the
gorgeous uniforms of the diplomats and
soldiers, the splendid orchestra and
chorus and the magnificent effect pro-
duced by the grand staircase, up which
President Loubet proceeded to view the
exposition, lined with some 200 picked
men of the Republican guard, with
jackboot white breeches, cleaning
cuirasses and horse-hair plumes stream
ing from shining helmets. At the top
OF this stairway was room, the in
terror of which could be seen from the
Sale des Fetes, and this was hung with
priceless gobelins from the Louvre.
Into this splendid apartment President
Loubet entered and walked down the
avenue to his boat. This part of the
days arrangement was perfect, but the
rest was chaos.
The weather today was luckily all
that could be desired. Fourteen thous-
and guests had been invited to the
function, aud they had, because of the
fine weather, only the dust to endure.
Had the day been wet, the unrolled
paths of the exposition grounds would
have been turned into mass of mud.
The afternoon was holiday in Paris
by general consent, and host OF
country people crowded into the city
to swell the multitudes, who from an
early hour serged in the direction of the
exposition and took up positions along
the route of the presidential procession
and at the approaches to the grounds.
The immense number of guests prac-
tically swept the central streets clean
of cabs. of which an unbroken stream,
several deep, drifted slowly toward the
gates between noon and $3.50 ?. M.
Drifted is the correct expression for the
rate of progress, because the traffic ar
rangements were SO inadequate that
hundreds of vehicles did not reach the
exposition at all, and the occupants
were either left stranded en- route or
were Obliged to abandon their carriages
and proceed on foot. This was the ex'
pedient ordinarily adopted, even by
several members of the diplomatic
corps and two gorgeously attired Off
cials of the Chinese embassy, after
hastily walking several blocks, arrived
in the Sale des Fetes just in time to
hear the cheering at the conclusion Of
the ceremony.

To Suppress italian Strikers at CrOton

Croton Landing. N. Y. April H.
While everything is quiet and peaceful
in the neighborhood of the Cornell dam
tonight, nearly 800 armed deputies are
guarding the works, and each one OF
them is guessing as to what tomorrow
may bring forth. The striking Italian
laborers. whose homes are in the vicin-
ity of the works, are behaving them-
selves excellently. But underneath
their assumed quiet there is stubborn
resolve not to go back to work nor let
any outsiders take their places until
the contractors agree to pay the in
crease of wages demanded. Strenuous
efforts are being made by Italian Con-
sui Branchi to bring about settlement
Of the difficulty. The strikers are very
determined i'll their demands, and swear
that if outside labor is brought here
they will fight tooth and nail to prevent
1t. Angelo Rotella, who is the recog-
nized leader of the strikers, said today:
"This is fight to finish. We earn
more money than we are receiving, and
the contractors must pay us for our
work. The state should protect us,
and, instead of sending deputies and
soldiers to help the bosses, they should
compel them to treat US rightfully. If
the bosses attempt to bring the other
laborers here we shall prevent any work
being done, and if the military comes
TO help them, then we will fight tbs
soldiers.n

Logansport, Ind, April 1S.-Too
much pressure and piece of defective
gas pipe in the mains of the Chicago
Pipe Line Company at joint four
miles southeast of here was the cause
of a terrific explosion today, in which
Michael Ellison, Jr., was instantly
killed, and five other men received in
juries from which it is doubtful ii they
will recover. Twelve men were in the
trench repairing leak in 10-inch
main, from which the gas had been
transferred to an eight-inch main near
it. The men were around "T'' on
the eight-inch main, and Ellison was
stopping over it when the pipe explode
ed. He was found 100 feet away, his
bones broken and having probably met
instant death. George Morrison, in
charge of the work, was sent sprawling
ON the ground 30 feet away, with gravel
and dirt blown into his skin, his body
wrenched, and his clothes torn and tat
tered. Win Briggs inhaled gas and
was taken home unconscious. Three
laborers were knocked down and
bruised in frightful manner TIE
rest of the men escaped with slight in
iuries from flying dirt and rock The

CHINESE REIGN OF TERROR.
Powerful viceroys Protest to the En-
press DOwager.

press DOwager.
Shanghai, April l6.-A full account
has been received here of the meeting
on March at Peking between the en-
press dowager and the grand council.
Protests were read from the viceroys
and governors of nine of the Is prov
inces against the policy OF the empress
dowager. These officials are the great
est provincial authorities in China.
They declared unitedly that, if the en-
press dowager persists in prosecuting
the reformers and continuing her reign
of terror policy, the Chinese under
them will rebel against the Manchus.
The viceroy at Nanklng says he has
100000 Hunanese troops who are anx-
ious to fight the Manchus, and he fears
he cannot control them. The vice.
roys who united in this remarkable step
represent the provinces of Kiang-Su.
Anhui, Kiangsi, Human, Hupeh, Che
kiang. Fookien, Quangsi and Kwang-
tung, with an aggregate population OF
1S0, ,000,0 900.
Until this protest had been made,
the dowager empress had been having
things quite her own way. Though
she has desisted from her purpose to set
up new emperor, yet her wrath to-
wards those who opposed her has shown
no abatement. 1t is unbounded. Kin
Lien-Shan has been captured in the
Portuguese colony of Macao, off the
South China coast, by Lii Hung Chang's
detectives. Mr.. Kin fed from Shang-
hal last month. He is the manager OF
the national system of telegraphs in
China, and headed the petition signed
by 1900 notables against setting up a
new emperor. Probably he will be
decapitated. An English law firm
here has been retained to defend him.
The government has trumped up
charges of defalcation against Mr.. Kin,
who is really very able and enlight-
'ened man.
On March instructions were wired
from Pel1ing to 500 Chow, capital of
Kiang-Su, to arrest and put to death
the reformers Weng T'Ung-Ho and
Shen Pong. These men had been in
very important positions in Peking,
but were easily captured in 500 Chow.
The chief reformer. Kang Yu Wei, has
fled to Singapore. The empress dow
ager has offered 100000 for his body.
dead or alive.
1t is said that there is an official
list, prepared by the Peking govern
ment, of the names of 800 reformers
who are prescribed. A special list OF
over 80 names exists of those who are
to be killed as soon as they are cap
| tured

Rain In yTissigsipDi.

Meridian, Miss, April 1S Seven
inches of rain has fallen in this city
and vicinity since yesterday. The
damage by high water will reach up
wards of 5000, 900, and two fatalities
have been reported. This city is sur
rounded on three sides by vast ex.
panse OF water, and all trains are in
definitely delayed by disastrous wash
outs. Recently planted crops in the
lowlands in radius of 10 miles are
under water, and citizens in flooded
districts have fled to the highlands for
safety. The dam OF the Meridian
Waterworks Company reservoir gave
wav this afternoon, and the damage will
reach $4,000. Two negro boys who
attempted to cross Sowashie creek.
east OF the city, this afternoon, were
drowned. The rain is still falling in
torrents. The storm is general
throughout the state, and railway traf-
iic is generally suspended, owing to

London, April 1S.--A Ladysmith
special. dated April Is, says that
natives report that the Beers in Glands
Laagte have retired beyond Biggars-
berg. This information tends to con-
firm the report that the Beers blew up
three important colliers, near Vessels
Mex, completely destroying the same.
A Cape Town dispatcn says nearly
5000 horses have landed there since
April l3. which indicates that every
effort is being made TO remedy great
defect in the British organization.
The chief Boer delegate. Fisher, acA
companied by DR.. Leyds, visited the
president of the Dutch cabinet today at
The Hague, but the doings of the dele
gates create little speculation in Eng
land.
Frederick Villiers, the veteran war
correspondent who arrived at South
ampton today from the front, said he
believed that the worst OF the war is
over, but that guerrilla warfare will
continue for some time.
A bulletin issued at Pretoria, April
13, reports that the burghers captured

that General Froneman that day de-

Troops Are ON Hand.

Groton Landing, N, Y, April 49,
The first bloodshed as the outcome OF
the strike at the Cornell dam was the
life blood of Sergeant Robert Douglass,
of the Eleventh separate company, OF
Mount Vernon, who was shot dead by.
an unknown assassin while he was res
lieving guard at $3.50 O'Clock last night.
The widest excitement prevailed
troughout the camp as soon as the news
of the assassination spread to the differs
ent tents, and the soldiers are frantic
over the crime. The point where the
sergeant fell Is known as Post TO-,
which was in charge of Corporal Me-
Dowell. 1t is situated on top 0f the
hill, near Little Italy, where armed
strikers we're seen drilling or marching
about early this morning, brandishing
rifles and shotguns. The spot is high
over the huge pile of masonry, and
from 1t one can command a view OF the
country on each side up and down the
Croton valley.
