CONFEDERATES MEET
THOUSANDS OF OLD SOLDIERS
HOLD THEIR REUNION At
NEW ORLEANS.

New Orleans, May 20.-The sessions
of the fourteenth annual reunion of
the United Confederate Veterans was
opened at the great auditorium at the
fair grounds. The weather was per-
feet and the arrangements by the local
committee most successful. There
were thousands of old soldiers, hun
dreds of beautiful women and above
all on every hand a %profusion OF fut-
tering flags and waving streamers.
There was martial music without limit
and enthusiasm u~nbounded. Over the
beauty and success Of the day there
was but a single shadow, and that
promises to disappear soon. This
was the illness of General Gordon, the
commander-in-chief Of the organ1za-
ton. He vas not well when he left
his hotel for the auditorium and had
not been in his usual health for sew
eral> days. Nothing but his grim fight
ing spirit carried him through the
day without something akin to col
lapse. His condition is in no ann
serious, but 1t is possible that he may
not be able to preside at all the ses-
.sions at the auditorium.
General Gordon was given an ova-
ton when he took his seat at the
opening of the convention.
General j. B. Levert called the as
sembly to order and Rev. J.. William
Jones delivered an eloquent invoca-
ton.
Then in succession came speeches
Of welcome to the veterans from the
mayor of New Orleans, Hon. Paul
C%apdeyille, Lois Ch%arbounet, and Gov
ernor w. w. Heard. After a few
opening words of welcome, the govern
or said:
Faced Gigantic Coalition.
VETERANS, the outcome of the strug-
gle that you carried on for four long
years against the most powerful forces
and ornaments that the world has yet
seen in no manner or sense can OBJ
scure the glory and fame that you
won for Dixie's Land. 1t is not ex-
travagent to say that the 600. 900 Con-
,federates confronted a coalition Of
America, Europe and Africa"
B. X. Krutschnitt Of New Orleans, In
charge Of the local arrangements for
the reunion, rendered through Cen
eral Gordon the auditorium, which
had been constructed for their use.
AS Geacral Gordon rose to reply he
enthusiastically chesred.
In his address General Gordon said:
1--WE will not indulge on this centen-'
nor at other times in any bitter
ness. We feel n We pity those
who do. We have long since drawn
the curtain Of oblivion over the regret
full and unseemly things Of the past,
and we cherish as Americans the
valor and noble deeds Of both armies
and Of all sections"
At the conclusion of General Cor
'don's speech, he led to the front OF
the platform Mrs. Stonewall Jackson,
and said:
1T was my fortune, and ! will
never cease to thank God that It was
my fortune, to follow. to know well
and to- love Stonewsll Jackson. He
IS. not here, but the best half of him is
here in the person of his wife. Com
rades, l present to you Mrs. stonewall
Jackson"
in the Wild cheers that swept the
hall the fair faced lady from Virginia
made to know once more how
Southern love remembers.
