Widest Expressions of Pleasure
From Every Quarter

LONDON, March 2.-Until midnight
London gave itself up to the widest ex-
pressions of Joy. From the Mansion
house to the West end all the leading
thoroughfares were constantly paraded by
enthusiastic crowds internationally burst
ing into patriotic songs. Bands marching
through the streets assisted with strains
of jubilation, and the same exultant
notes were to be heard at every railway
station or place OF public gathering
throughout the metropolis.
The West end clubs, the cafes, the reg
taurants and the public buildings were all
brilliantly Illuminated, and their interiors
even to doors were beautifully decora ted
with flags, bunting and electric lights. At
all the music halls, patriotic songs were
given, the people rising and joining amid
scenes Of unbounded enthusiasm. Hardly
a person could be met with who was not
wearing the national emblem In the shape
of a tricolor rosette or ribbon. The bio
graph representations of leading generals
and heroes Of the war were treated with
tremendous acclamations. One striking
feature of the rejoicing was the great
number of American flags entwined with
the British.
At II o'clock, when tho theaters and
music halls poured forth thousands, the
1ubilation was redoubled In Trafalgar

VIGOROUS PROTEST.
New York Chamber of Commerce
Condemns the Measure.


NEW YORK, March 1.-At the month
ly meeting of the Chamber of Commerce
today a resolution was unanimously
adopted recording the Chamber of Com
merce's emphatic opinion that every con-
sderation of honor, justice and human
fly demanded that trade between the
United States and the island of Puerto
Rico should be unrestricted by any GUS
toms duties whatever, and that early and
prompt action should be taken by con-
gress to redeem the good faith and the
implied pledges -" ton as sponsor
for the future welfare of Puerto Rico.
Following is the text of the resolu
tions:
Whereas, in accepting the cession of
the island of Puerto Rico and in assum-
ing the control Of the destinies of this
States have undertaken a solemn duty
and obligation toward the people of that
island, and are in good faith bound to
recognize the welfare and interests of its
Inhabitants as Identical in every partic-
ular with our own, and
Whereas, the president of the United
equivocally declared that the markets
of the United States should be opened
to Puerto Rlco's products, and that our
plain duty is to abolish all custom duty
tariffs between the United States and
Puerto Rico and to give her products
free access to our markets, and
whereas, the secretary OF war In MS
last report to the president states that
the highest considerations of justice and
good faith demand that we should not dis
appoint the confident expectation of shar-
= ing our prosperity, with which the people
of Puerto Rico so gladly transferred their
allegiance to the United States,
Resolved, that the chamber of COM
merce OF the state of New York record
its emphatic opinion that every consider
alton of humanity demands that trade be-
tween the United States and the island
of Puerto Rico shall be unrestricted by
any customs duties whatever, and be it
further
"Resolved, that prompt action should
be taken to redeem the good faith and

mitted to be used In these statements.
1t is said that for this collusion with
the McLain brothers the other brokers
in the agreement were allowed part of
the proceeds as commissions. 1t is
claimed that Whyland, Parker and Nicol
allowed their names to be used In this
connection SO as to deceive their corre-
spondents into the belief that their deals
were bona fde. The names and dates
used in the Indictment against the latter
threee men are: F. A. Hyke, Luverne,
Mimi, July and II, 1899, and A. T..
Rogers, Salem. To-. Aug. %, 1899
Nicol and Parker have both been re-
garded as pronounced antagonists of the
bucket shop. Nicol Is a member of
the room committee, and while
neither is connected with the committee
which has the bucket shop matter in
hand both have been looked upon as
leaders in the movement to suppress this
irregular form of trading.

LONDON, March AL day long cheer
ing thousands kept up an incessant roar
before the Mansion house, and all traffic
in what is London's busiest concourse
ceased. An elderly gentleman, with his
silk hat on the back of his head and his
black coat tails flying in the wind,
climbed to the top Of a high lamp post In
the middle OF the street, opposite tho
Mansion house, and remained for about
an hour, with his legs curled around the
post. Waving his hat In one hand and
flag in the other, he led the tumultuous
cheering for each hero of the war and
the fierce hoarse imprecations on Presi-
dent Kruger and President Steyn. Pam
demonium reigned. The news of the Man
sion house demonstration had spread to
all quarters of the city, and there poured
in a stream of hoodlums and fakirs laden
with flags, women, boys and all sorts
and conditions of people. Silk hats flew
into the air, and small fights were of
frequent occurrence. The hundreds of
policemen on the spot had their hands
full, but as long as the enthusiasm OF
the crowd was only confined to horse play
the officers did not interfere.
Tons of firecrackers are being bought
