THE PRINCE DEPARTS
WILL BE THE GUEST OF THE ST.
LOUIS FAIR AUTHORITIES.
Visited Mt. Vernon Yesterday, Saw
Drill at Fort Myer and Was Princi-
pa, Guest Ct f'nfisr.

Prince Sadanaru Fushimi and his suite
left Washington this morning for st. Louis,
where the prince is to be the guest of the
worlds fair authorities as the official rep
resentatiye of the Emperor Of Japan. The
prince and his party occupied a special car
attached to the regular western train leav-
ing the 9Th street station at 1850 o'clock.
The party will remain in St Louis long
enough to view the fair and then will re-
turn east. 1t Is expected that the distin-
guished visitor will leave st. Louis in time
to witness the army and navy foot ball
game at Philadelphia, a week from tomor-
row.
The party that left with the prince this
morning comprised the same persons who
came here with him. Neither Mr.. Peirce of
the State Department or Major Symons was
included, as neither of these gentlemen
had contemplated the trip. The officials of
the worlds fair, it is understood will pro-
vide the entertainment at st. Louis and the
visits that are to be paid to other cities are
to be incognito
The prince laid a wreath of chrysanthe-
NUNS on the tomb of Washington yester-
day. From Mount Vernon the party went
to Alexandria, where automobiles were
waiting, and the entire party was driven in
motor cars across country to Arlington and
Fort MYer On the arrival at Fort Myer
the troops of the garrison were drawn up
and a review was rendered the visitor. At
ter the review the party wasescorted to the
riding hall, where an exhibition drill was
given by the troopers of the cavalry and the
artillerymen.
After the drill the prince inspected the
quarters and stables and then returned to
the Arlington, where an elaborate dinner
was given last night in his honor by Mr..
Hioki charge d'affaires Of the Japanese le-
CATION in this city. The dinner was served
in the banquet hall of the Arlington. which
was decorated with chrysanthemums for
