WASHINGTON Is INVADED.
President Says the Greater Portion Of
His Troops in Cuba Were Sons
of Confederates.

Washington.-Forty-six years ago the
presence of an armed body of men in
gray marching through the streets of
Washington would have struck terror
to the souls of the populace. Then the
combined forces of Beauregard and
Johnston and Jackson had put to ignO-
minious flight the Federal troops at
Bull Run, and all Washington was in
a state of panic lest the Co~nfederates
march on the capital city. Fortune
favored the WashingtOnians and the
men in gray did not advance beyond the
field of Manassas.
Today, however, two companies OF
Confederate soldiers clad in gray and
bearing arms marched through the
principal thOroughfares of the city
without the firing of a gun Or hostile
demonstration of any sort, captured
Washington and the White House to
boot. Instead of resistance the invad-
ing troops were received with cheers
and all the marks of unaffrighted ap-
prOval. Even the hero, so recorded in
history of San Juan Hill, gave the in
vading hosts from the Southland a cor
dial reception at the White House and
babe them welcome.
To several of the veterans the presi-
dent remarked that in his regiment in
Cuba he had more sons of Confederate
veterans than he had sons of Union vet
erans,a and that the field glasses he used
in that campaign belonged to an ex-
Confederate general. This delighted
the veterans and added to the pleasure
of the care occasion.

SEAMEN'S STRIKE SITUATION.
Hopes Of an Early Settlement Are Held
Cut-StiIl Uncertain.

Paris, June 5.-The strike situation
still continues uncertain. but officials
of the navigation companies are of the
opinion that a general resumption of
work is a matter of a short time only.
The decision of the companies, made
at the request of the government, not
to prosecute assertions, will have, it
is considered, a good influence on
the men who still waver. The men at
several. ports have expressed a desire
for the continuation of the movement,
but the officers generally are inclined
to go back to work.
The delegates of the strikers met
again and confirmed their action of
Monday night in advising the men to
bring the strike to an end.
A dispatch received here from Cher
bourg says the stevedores of the
Transatlantic vessels have joined the
movement.

dence in This Week-Police
Commissioners First.

San Francisco, June 5.-The jury
was completed Tuesday afternoon for

O'Neil and Coroner William Walsh as
untitled by personal bias to perform
court functions in connection with the
trial and appointed William ]. Buggy
as elisor to have charge of the jury
until a verdict has been rendered or a
disagreement reached.
Shortly after adjournment of court
Mr.. Buggy, who for some months past
has been Ruef's jailer, marched the
jury to the St. Francis hotel, where
the twelve tried men and true" will
be kept under lock and key during
all the time that they are not sitting
in the trial. Judge Dunno has decided
that the jurors shall have no newspa-
pers to read until all articles relating
to the case have been censored, they
may receive no general mail nor may
they be communicated with by their
families except under the scrutiny OF
the elisor.
Royal w. Cudworth, coal dealer, the
last taleSman of the venire, was ac-
cepted at the afternoon session after
a brief examination.
The state hopes to put in all of its
evidence this week. Former Police
Commissioners Hutton, Reagan, Drink
house, Howell and Poheim will likely

ALBANY REGISTERS SHOCK.
1t Is Thought 1t Mas So Slight as to
Do No Damage,

Albany, n. Y, Jane IAN earth
quake of slight intensity was recorded
by the seismograph at the state
museum. The first shock came at 500
a. m. and the maximum disturbance at
SIP a. m. The vibrations were small,
but persisted for nearly an hour. The
earthquake, it was stated, seems to
have had its origin at a point about
$500 miles away, either to the east or
west of Albany, but most likely to the
west somewhere in the Pacific ocean.
The record indicates a small shock
that probably did little or no damage.

HONOR JEFFERSON DAVIS
UNVEIL ENDURING MEMORIAL TO
CONFEDERATE PRESIDENT.
TRIBUTE TO WOMEN OF THE SOUTH
Speeches Made Called for Loyalty to
the Cause for Which the Armies
of the South Had Fought.

Richmond, Va, June 4.-Under a per-
feet sky, with bands playing Dixie"
and Maryland" the remnants OF the
armies of the gray passed through the
streets of Richmond and Il on splen-
did Monument avenue unveiled an en-
during memorial to Jefferson Davis,
the first and only president OF the Con
federate States of America. The event
came as a climax to the reunion of the
United Confederate Veterans, and
every member of the body of old men
who was able to walk at all took part.
Second only to the tribute given by
the speakers to the memory Of Dixie
lands great chieftain were those
offered on every hand to the women of
the south whose gift the is.
The speeches counseled the teaching
of loyalty to the cause for which the
southern states struggled, but there
was nothing in the teachings but what
excited the sympathy and approval of
visitors from the other sections.
Gathered for One Purpose.
The great multitude had gathered for
n purpose alone, which was evil
denced by the attitude of the people
toward William j. Bryan, who was the
guest Of the reunion.
He was given a remarkable ovation
as he drove through the streets in the
line Of march and was cheered to the
echo as he mounted the stand just be-
fore the program was begun. At the
conclusion Of the ceremony there were
a number Of calls for him to address
the people, but these were immedi-
no." many times repeated. The objec-
lions came from everywhere and were
led by the women of the Jefferson Da-
Wis Monument association, also Gen.
Stephen D.. Lee, grand commander, who
presided at the stand and announced in
ringing tones: There will be no poll
tics here"
MIR. and Mrs. Bryan Present.
During the ceremony Mr.. and Mrs.
Bryan had occupied an inconSpicuous
position in the "a of the speakers
stand, out of the sight of the people.
AS soon as his name was called Mr..
Bryan made a movement as though to
withdraw from the stand. He realized
that if he appeared before the people a
political move would be attributed to
him by many, and for that reason he
had opposed going on the stand at all.
The prompt suppression of the calls by
General Lee and others saved an en-
barrassing situation.
One of the touching incidents of the
day was the presentation of the de-
scendants of Mr.. Davis to the great
throng, which cheered them several
minutes.
