THE JUNKETING
TOUR BEGINS.
Washington Letter.
(From Our Regular Correspondent.

(From Our Regular Correspondent. }
Washington, April 20.-All aboard
for San Francisco. The Presidential
Cpecial, composed Of seven cars, each
the finest Of its kind, left Washing
ton today to remain on the road until
June 18TH, and to travel 10,5Sl miles
in all. The booklet containing the
complete schedule Of tho trip gives
the names Of forty as members of
the party, but that was prepared be-
fore it was known that Secretary AMI
Mrs. Long were going to COLORADO in
advance. Besides Mrs Mckinley,
there are nine ladies' in the party.
Secretary Cortelyou and three White
executive business which the Psesi-
dent may find it necessary to trans
act. The public will not lack full
details Of the trip, as each OF the
three big Press Associations has a
representative on the train also each
OF the three Washington daily papers,
and each OF the three most prominent
New York illustrated weekles has a
special artist abroad. There is also
IL photographer. Both the Western
Union and the Postal Telegraph Com
panies have operators on the train,
with ali the facilities for sending
messages direct. There may, per-
haps, be fiucr single cars than any
one on this special train, but it is
certain that there never has been
1, ner special train, as whole. 1t is a
first class hotel on wheels, and it con-
taiDs everything that could be asked
for the comfort Of the most fastidious
guest, 1t would not be absolutely
necessary for any passenger to Ieaye
this train during the entire sig weeks
trip, although they will all frequently
dU 80.

There is an amusing side &" tue
visit OF the Cuban Committee I"
Washington, which has Furnished
finn for those who came in contact
with it's members. They hal the
speediest aud about the worst case
of swelled head ever seen in Wash
;ngton. where the big heat is an
every day compliint, with htlle tei'
lows who suddenly becom" 'ntoN'ca'-
ed with the greatness when 'hey
imagine gnes along with a newly as
sumed office. The Cubans didnt
have that kind OF big head. Theirs
was brought on by the jollyins they
rec eived from officials from the Presi'
dent down. 1t began when they were
met at tho railway station by TWO
Army officers. who informed them
that they had been detailed by the
Secretary of War TO escort them TO
their hotel, and to look after their
comfort during theic stay in town,
and eliminated Mt the State Dinner
in the White House, where all tie
prominent men ia Washington at the
time, took hand in pushing the
Jolly along. Since then each one OF
those Cubans has acted as though he
thought he was the greatest thing
that ever happened. The old saw
about catching more flies with molas-
ses than with vinegar apparently did
another successful stunt. The jolly
ing has been so ef!icacious that the
Cubaus have promised to 81 home
and recommend to the Convention
that the conditions laiI down by the
Platt amendment be accepted.

is made out OF the right sort OF stuff.

ber Of the Executive Committee Of

stopped in Washington on his way
home from New York. Mr., Bolton
said: 81 do not know OF n period
when the State Of Louisiana has been
more prosperous than as preSent.
The banks are full OF mDaey. There
has been great development in many
of the States industries-tn rice grow-
ing, in sugar production AMI in tim
