Greeted in Chicago With a TumultuOuS
Acclaim From Thousands.
THE B. & 0. STATION THRONGED
Crowds Also in the Neighboring
Streets.
MET BY COUNClLMEN AND VETERANS

Chicago, Ill. Jan. 25. Rear Admiral
W. S. Schley arrived in Chicago at
$50 O'Clock this morning, and was
greeted with tumultuous acclaim
from thousands of people, who crowded
the Baltimore & Ohio depot and
thronged nearby streets for blocks.
His reception here was the culmina
tion of the demonstrations in his honor
which have occurred all along the route
from Washington.
At the depot the admiral was greeted
by delegation from the City Council
and company Of naval veterans of the
civil war. Alderman Frank Fowler
on behalf of the City Council, pre-
scented the following:
Whereas, the city Of Chicago is to
be honored by a visit from Rear
Admiral Schley, and
.Whercas, Our citizens are ever
ready to applaud valor, honor and
merit, and
Whereas, We recognize in Admiral
Schley's achievements, his character
and his hearing one of the foremost
naval heroes of all time, whose splendid
record at Santiago will forever be the
pride and inspiration of his grateful
countrymen; therefore be it
| Resolved by the City Council OF
the city of Chicago that the city OF
Chicago. through its mayor and Nh.
niciEal Council, takes pleasure in
making this public acknowledgment
Of the distinguished services rendered
by Admiral Schley to his country, anc
extends to him heartfelt welcome. y
Admiral Schley, accompanied by
Mrs. Schley was met in their private
car at South Chicago an hour before
the train arrived in the city proper
| The delegation represented the city anc
the Hamilton Club, whose guest tn,
admiral will be during his stay here
which ends Tuesday morning.

of his car, bowling his head and fiut

ELEVATED RAILROAD.
Actual Work of Building the structure Be-
gan Monday.

gan Monday.
Master Carpenter McGrath of Phila-
delphia, connected with the firm of
Ryan & Kelly of that city, started Il
force of men at work Saturday on
the plot of ground between Market and
King streets facing on Water, acquired
by the p, w. Il b. railroad some time
ago for an elevated railroad. This
marks the actual beginning of work
on the elevated road. The men tore
up the tracks near the street and
loaded on fiat cars the rails. ties and
Belgian blocks, which will be removed
at once.
A number of post holes were dug and
posts inserted which stood about five
feet above the pavement. A board
fence will be constructed about the
plot of ground to keep people out of
the way of workmen and possible in
jury.
A stone wall ten feet in thickness
will be constructed first which will be
capable of carrying two trains and after
this is completed additional walls will
be constructed of heavy stone. Every
thing possible will be done to prevent
interference with the surface tracks or
| trains until the elevated is constructed
| and in use.
Immense crowds of people surrounded
the scene of the operations Saturday
and for time interfered with the
men at work. Representatives of the
Street and Sewer Department visited
the place during the morning and took
glance at the work.
The Malta House, tenanted by Der,
nard Carr, will be vacated during next
month and the work will be continued
on that block after the house has beer
| removed.

DEATH OF AN AGED CAPTAIN.

Capt. William S. Holland, one. of
Philadelphia oldest shipmasters, died
at the home Of his daughter, at Lewes,
Friday of old age He retired from
the sea in 1893, after a voyage from
Santos, Brazil, in which his entire
ships company had died of yellow
fever.
Capt. Holland, at the time, was in
command of the old Philadelphia brig
Odorilla, owned by Henry d. May. In
1892, while in command of this vessel,
he collected in demurrage for detention
at Santos, during the yellow fever
epidemic, sum equal to almost twice
the value of the vessel
When the Odorilla arrived at Santos
there were so many vessels ahead OF
her that she was unable to reach her
discharging berth, and for 345 days she
lay at that pest ridden place.. awaiting
an opportunity to dispose of her cargo.
During this time the death rate daily
averaged 80. One by one he saw thu
members of his crew snccumh to th'
fever.
When ready to leave Santos Capt
Holland experienced great difficulty II
securing crew, and was compelled t.
pay bounty to the boardinghons'
keepers for each man shipped.
While in Santos the American consu
died, and Capt. Holland assumed hi
| functions and protected American in
| terests until his successor was named

CHERRY ISLAND FLATS.
Probability That IA Channel viii be Cut
Near the Delaware shore.

Probability That IA Channel viii be Cut
Near the Delaware shore.
In view of the annoyance experienced
at Cherry island flats, of this city, by
large craft bound for Philadelphia,
there is said TO be a sentiment among
shipping men in favor of having II
channel so feet deep cut through rs
near the Delaware shore as is practica
BILE. Advocates of the channel 30 feet
deep and 600 feet wide in the river
from Philadelphia to the sea are more
than ever anxious that the memorial
submitted to congress last week re-
ceiye favorable consideration soon and
that sufficient appropriation be made
so the work of dredging, virtually Just
begun, may he pushed forward with
all possible rapidity.
1t is felt that the export and import
trade of Philadelphia is seriously
| menaced, as seldom week passes that
some vessel does not go aground i'll
shallow water, which in so many places
extends directly to the edge of the
narrow and treacherous channel.
"Vessel owners will soon be afraid
to trust their craft in the Delaware.
and trade which now naturally finds
its way to Philadelphia will be di-
verified to less favorable but at the
same time less dangerous ports. " This
expression, secured from a prominent
shipping man, in Philadelphia, yester-
day, is the sentiment of nearly all en-
gagged in business which depends on
the city's waterway.
The grounding of the International
| Navigation Co. S Pennland on Cherry
Island fats, Wednesday, was but one
of the scores of accidents of similar
nature which have occurred in the
Delaware at the same point and at
other shallow places during the last
few months. The Pennland was floated
apparently without damage late the
night of the accident, but her owners
had to pay for the services of four tugs
which helped the liner into deep water.
Besides, the boat was delayed almost Il
day. The steamship Manchester Cor.
poration was aground for almost three
days on the upper end of Joe Floggei
Shoal, another dangerous obstruction
further down the river, week ago,
and great deal of her cargo had tt
be lightered before the tugs coule
move her into deep water. The steam
ship Cerea was ashore for few hour:
at Tinicum Island, January 10th, anc
the steamship British Prince had :
like experience in the Horseshoe tn,
following day.
