NO MORE ExPOSITIONS
Senate Allows Buffalo and
Charleston Large Sums Pay
For McKinley'S Doctors.

Washington. June 26.-When the SEN
ate convened today a bill was passed
directing the secretary Of the treasury
TO bestOw medals upon First Lieuten-
ant David II. Jarvis. Second Lieuten-
ant Ellsworth i. BeTthOlf and Samuel
J. Call, surgeon, all of the revenue
cutter service, members of the over
land expedition of 1897 for the relief of
the whaling fleet in the Arctic regions.
Consideration was then begun of the
general deficiency appropriation bill, il
being read for committee amend
ments.
When the appropriations Of 500, 900
for the Buffalo Pan-American exposi-
ton and $3.50. 900 for the Charleston ex-
position were read. Mr.. Bailey of Texas
protested, He insisted that if congress
should meet the present demands it
would be called uPon to meet a still
greater deficit in the st. Louis EXPOSE
ton. He thought it was gross mis-
application of public money.
Other senator's, Mr.. Hale. Mr.. Spoon
er and Mr.. Teller, while they sympa-
thized with Mr.. BaiIey's views, thought
that the calamity which had befallen
the people in Buffalo IN the assassina-
ton Of President Mckinley had much
taken into consideration.
No Aid For Expeditions.
Mr.. Hale believed the example Of
those cities would be a means of stop
ping the mad rush of cities for EXPOSE
tions. He hoped that not again in a
generation would the government ex-
tend financial aid to an exposition en-
terprise.
With the understanding that the
present appropriations were not to be
/ considered as a precedent, Mr. Bailey
withdrew his objection, and the amend
ments were agreed to.
An amendment was agreed TO author

HOLIDAY IN LONDON
Places Of Amusement Crowded
Flowers For Coronation
Sold For a Pittance.

London, June 26.-The streets of the
city today contained a citrious mixture
or Sunday and holiday crowds. All the
banks and big business houses in the
heart Of the city were shut up. Most of
the retail shops were open and the sa-
looms and restaurants of the cheaper sort
ala fairly rushing business. Many of
the usual bean feaster" class got out
early on brakes and coaches with horns
ana banners, singing God Save the
King, and preserving every evidence of
mingled patriotism and beer Most of
the railroads cancelled their excursions,
so the great bulk of the bank holiday
makers. was thrown back on the streets
for amusement and crowded the Strand,
Holoorn and the city parks. The molly
swarm was reminiscent of Hampstead
Heath or Of the crowds outside a circus
tent. The crowd kept close to the bulle-
TIN boards in order to get the first read
lngs of the reports as they came from
the bedchamber. The majority of the
holiday makers eventually gravitated to
the cheap saloons and chop houses in
search of rest and refreshnent
Food Given Away.
The poorer classes reaped a harvest at
the big markets, where there was a glut
of perishable foOdstUffs, which, in many
cases, were given away for the sake Of
clearing the stands. The great flower
market at Convention presented q pitifUl
scene. Hundreds of cases of fine flowers
were dying in the hands Of the dealers.
The small dealers were stocked up with
roses. carnations and lilies. which were
disposed OF at a tenth of their usual
value. Many orchids were given away.
Billingsgate market was glUtted with
salmon at 10 pence a pound, but meat at
Smithfield market was only a penny be-
low the normal price.
The arrangements for the Marlborough
house entertainment of children was car
ried out today in spite Of the postpone
ment Of the coronation. About 1900 young
Sters enjoyed the dinner provided for
them by the Prince and Princess of
Wales, who were present and remained in
the gardens with their little guests for a
couple of hours.
