St. Louis, Mo., May 3.—Amid the ringing of bells, the firing of cannon, the tramp of soldiers, the waving of flags and the cheering of hundreds of thousands of people, the Louisiana Purchase exposition was formally dedicated to-day by President Rooee- velt and Ex-President Cleveland, in the presence of the diplomatic corps, ascore of United States senators and governors of states, and the largest assemblage of famous men ever gath- 4 ered in the west. During the early part of the cere- monies, the Liberal Arte building was overcrowded. A panic seemed imminent, many women faintingand thousands of others crying in terror. President Francis, seeing the ap- proaching disaster, averted it by ordering the reserved seat section, which wae only partially filled, to be thrown open. This alleviated the trouble in @ few minutes. Anumber of women were carried out unconscious and taken to hospi- tals, as a result of the awful jam which had occurred. The day dawned threatingly. Heavy clouds were banked up high, and the air was cold, All this mark ed the 100th anniversary of the ced- ing of the province of Louisiana from Spain to France and from France to the United States. The quaint old city was astir early. Regiments of infantry, headed by bands, marched sultation in whispers with Judge Fox. Turning back to face the at- torneys, Judge Robinson said the case was 80 clear to the court that he did not think it worth while to spend further time on it. “The defendants are discharged from custody,” he said. “The scope of the inquiry cannot belimited. The ques- tions may be apparently harmless, but the answers might furnish the one link necessary to covict the wit- ness. If he were compelled to testify then the constitutional provisions would be of no use to him.” EVOLUTION OF THE STATES. “We expanded by carving thewild-} A BOODLERS’ VICTORY. erness into territories, and out of these territories building new states when once they had received as per-| Means That Important Witnesses Will manent settlers a sufficient number " of cer people.

While the idea of a large standing army 's repugnant to the American m‘nd, it is true, nevertheless, that the United States has approached nearer to a standing army than ever before. It is prepared to defend the Monroe doctrine, the maintenance of which many leading statesmen be- lieve will precipitate the next war.

After Mr. Francis’ short speech, President Roosevelt turned to the assembly and began his speech. He said: “Mr. President: We have met here to-day to commemorate the hun- dredth anniversary of theevent which more than any other, after the foun- dation of the government and always excepting its preservation, determin- ed the character of our national life —determined that we should be a great expanding nation instead of relatively @ small and stationary one.
