GOV. ALLEN Is POPULAR
RETURN OF PORTO RICAN EXECU.
TIVE OCCASION FOR POPULAR
DEMONSTRATION
CHEERED BY THE PoPULAcE
Speeches of Welcome by Mayor of
City, Speaker of Legislat9re and
Others Replied to by
Gov. Allen.

SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, May 23.-The
demonstrative welcome rendered to Gov.
Allen, who arrived here today on the
May1ower, easily surpassed any similar
previous demonstration.
The MayfoWer was met by launch
containing Mr.. Hunt, secretary of Porto
Rico; Col Buchanan, the collector Of
customs; Capt. Yates Stirling, the cap
tain of the port, and other friends Of
the governor Gov. Allen landed at the
waterfront at fifteen minutes past II.
! The public square fronting the docks
was thronged with thousands of people.
The crowd was much larger than that
which welcomed Gov. Alien upon his
first arrival in Porto Rico. To-Day he
I was greeted with rousing cheers. There
was a procession half a mile long form
ed by the police, 1900 school children, a
regimental band labor organizations
from San Juan and other towns, and
delegations from Mayaguez and Ponce
that had chartered steamers to reach
San Juan. Citizens were in carriages
and on foot and the balconies were COW
cred with bunting and flags.
Arriving at the place, Gov. Allen was
made welcome by speeches by Manuel
Egozcue, the mayor of San Juan; Senior
Rosy, the speaker of the leg Stature, and
others. To a crowd of 5000 persons
Gov. Allen made a long speech in reply.
He said that since his visit to Washing
, ton the wishes of the people of Porto
Rico are better understood, and that
he brings them hope, cheer and encour-
agement. He expressed his desire for
the cooperation of all to aid the govern
ment in advancing the interests of the
island The governors remarks were
received with tremendous enthusiasm.
Gov. Allen will be rendered a reception
tonight 10y the people of the city. Three
bands of music will play on the plaza,
there will be fireworks until midnight
and the governor will again address the
people. San Juan is enjoying a semi
holiday

Houses Transfer Takes
Place May 81.

1.-THE Manitoba government will take
over the lines of the Northern Pacific
at midnight May 81" said Hon. Robert
Rogers, minister of public works in, Mr..
Robins cabinet, to a reporter for the
Globe yesterday 81 saw Mr. Mellen
this morning and all the arrangements
were completed The road is to be oper-
ated by the Canadian Northern railway,
and we are ready to let them have it
as soon as we get possession. I I'M
derstand, though, that this company is
not quite ready to take hold, and it may
be two or three weeks before they as
sumo the active management of the
leased property AS far as legal formal
tiles are concerned, they We're all COM
pleted today, and it will not be neces-
sary for me to come to this city again
on this NATTER
When shown a press dispatch from
Winnipeg stating that certain parties
had commenced injunction Proceedings to
prevent the Northern Pacific from max
ing a transfer of the lines to the govern
ment, Mr.. Rogers said it was perfectly
absurd, and that motion for an i'll
junction would not be worth the breath
counsel would eXpend in moving it. "It
is claimed, / understand said Mr. Rog-
ers, that the provincial government has
no power to take over the lines,
and that the Northern Pacific has
no power to turn them over. Well, in
the first place the right of the provincial
government to enter into the arrange
ment has never been questioned but
the Northern Pacific, holding a Dominion
charter, had of course TO secure federal
authority to make any transfer This
has been specifically granted by act of
parliament and the last possible objec-
ton was thereby removed.
You may say for me- continued Mr..
Rogers, that the transfer will take place
as arranged today, in spite of all that
opponents of the project can do. The
papers have been signed, the federal and
provincial house have approved of them
and nothing can now prevent a success
full contamination of our plans. ANY
talk of injunctions is so absurd that it
is not worth discussing at ALL"
Regarding the reductions in the rates
which have been promised, the minister
said it had been decided to grant a re-
duction of cents per 100 pounds on
wheat shipped to the great lakes and
775 per cent on general merchandise This
will take effect Immediately, and a like
further reduction will be made next
year.
AS to the question whether the lease
would prove a profitable bargain for
either the government or the road which
viii operate 1t, Mr. Rogers said he would
not at present express an opinion, He
asserted that the management Of the
Canadian Northern was composed of
capable railroad men, and with the favor
with which the reduction in rates is al
most certain to be received, there should
at least be no deficit.
The lease runs for e99 years and prac-
ttcally amounts to sale OF the prom
ertY.

CLARA RICO A sPENDTHRIFT.
COnservatOr Appointed for Estate
of Former Princess Chimay

of Former Princess Chimay.
CHICAGO, May 23.-CIara Rfgo. former
ly Princess De Chimay, nee Ward, Of
Detroit, was declared a spendthrift and
incapable of mana ipg her property in
the probate court here. Thomas r.
Lyons, her uncle, was appointed con-
servator of her estate and filed bond
OF $4,000. He alleged that since She
came into her property in 1894 mis- niece
has spent 100000 in addition to an annual
income of from $4,000 to $4,000 Lyons
produced proof that his niece concurred
in believing corservator necessary
The present action, according to states
ments of Mr. Lyons to the jury was pre-
cipitated by the demand made in Feb
ruary last from Egypt for $4,000 to paw
the woman's accumulated debts. These
had accrued for two years This bill was
the largest ever presented Her previous
record had been the spending of 10000
francs in Paris in six weeks All of
these bills Mr.. Lyons, as trustee, had
to settle out Of the principal of the
womanS fortune
When the debts in Egypt were discov-
cred Mr.. Lyons arranged a meeting with
his niece in London. She then acknowl-
edged that she was incapable of resisting
the temptation of buying whatever she
wanted

WINTER WHEAT CONDITION.
R. G. Dun's Report Shows 1t to Be
Exceptionally Satisfactory.

NEW YORK, May 23.-Dispatches from
correspondents of R. G. Dun & Co.
throughout the winter wheat belt prom
iso an unusually satisfactory yield. Con-
ditions have distinctly changed since the
earlier statement was prepared, especial
ly as respects the Hessian fly, which
threatened serious disaster in some sec
lions a few weeks ago. The grain has
now made sufficient progress to preclude
any extensive losses through raVages of
this pest, and there is little sign of other
untoward influences. In many states the
acreage planted was slightly smaller than
last years, but the condition, as a rule
suggests an equally good yield. This in
cludes allowance for losses in Texas,
where drought necessitated replanting,
and in many cases the final acreage was
not more than half last years. AS the
entire yield of the state is a compare
lively unimportant factor in the total
winter wheat crop, it's misfortunes will
not materially affect the aggregate.
