Shepherd. HIS HEALTH RESTORED AND HIS BUSINESS PROSPECTS BRIGHT—SURPRISED AND PLEASED AT THE RECEP- TION BE IS TO MEET WITH. Ex-Gov. Shepherd returned from New York on the Congressional express last evening. He was accompained by Mr. Scott, Mr. Martin, Mr. Shep- herd’s interpreter and secretary, and the gover- nor's brother-to-law, Jno. M. Young. His oldest son was also of the party, having boarded the train at Trenton, near which place he {s attending school. Mrs. Shepherd anda number of personal friends met Mr. Shepherd at the station. After hurried but cordial greetings the travelers were driven direct to Bleak House, beyond Brightwood. When a Star reporter called on Gov. Shepherd early this morning he had just completed break- fast, and surrounded by his family was enjoying the comforts of his country home. SURPRISED AND PLEASED. When told of the preparations which were being made for his reception this evening Mr. Shepherd expressed surprise at thelr magni- tude. “It was entirely unexpected by me,” he said, “and the demonstration Is all the more wel- come on that account. — Tt1s not only pleasing to re » but is pecullarly gratifying to my He showed a good deal of interest in the proposed bievele parade, and anticipated witness. ng a brilliant and novel spectacle, “Yes,” he continued, “I have returned to my old home in re- newed health and Strength, with the exception of Ad, Which {Nave had for seyeral_ weeks. pretty hurd siege of it after my accident, Dut perhaps the human system fs like the atmos. phere, ail the purer and healthier for a good hard thunder storm, and a general shaking up. At any rate, I atn myself agatn, and am READY TO KESUME WORK.” As he sald this he ran his hand through his hafr. Ithas grown again to a pretty full crop, and al- most entirely concealed the ugly scar which ex- tends clear across his sealp, a perpetual reminder of the terrible accident in the aqueduct at Bato] flas. In answer to inquiries of the reporter, Mr. Shepherd said: “My visit here has been extreinely successful. In the first place I have regained my health, ag I stated, which was the immediate cause of my return from Mexico, and in the second Place my business trip to New York bids fair to be Tewarded with entire success.” “It has been charged that you stopped in New York to drum up more money to carry on falling mining operations in Mexico,” suggested the re- porter. “Yes, of course,” said Mr. Shepherd. “I went to New York to see'about a CONSOLIDATING ALL THE MINES in which I am interested 1n Mexfco under one company, The consolidation has been entered upon, and Ihave every reason to believe that when the vote ts taken next Wednesday there will Rot be a dissenting stockholder. For four years I have been urged by stockholders to secure thts consolidation, but I was unwilling todo so untilwe | had received the grant from the Mexican _govern- ment, which would make us secure in our rights and privileges. My accident hastened my return somewhat, fore that occurred the Mexican | government had given us a charter, almost na- Uonal in character. Nothing like 1t has ever been conceded to foreigners or natives. It recognizes | our rights to the mineral of all that part of the country, and makes us safe trom molestation of any kind, Its a fitting recognition of our opera- Uons if developing the mineral resources of the country. Heretofore there have been two obstacles to perfect mining at Batopllas—the lack of suf- figjent power to Work the mills and the large cos of transportation, We are so far from the woods | that, with all the mules we could use, only enough wood could be brought to last a few montas in the year, while the transportation of | the ore was so diMcult that, although there was | always plenty of ore, the lurgest mill could only be run to one-third of its capacity. DIFFICULTIES OVERCOME. “Now, Iam happy to say, both of these difficul- ties have been obviated, the former by the large aqueduct, several miles long, which will furnish mines through the one opening, Bringing. the oro from all right out to the hacienda, By this consol- idation our running expenses ‘will be greatly lessened. Heretorore it has been necessary to have a thoroughly equipped outfit for working each separate inine, but now ft will require but one for all, and there 1s every prospect that from | Ubis me forward we will be able to work to the | | Dest advantage by means of the extensive tm- { provements that have been made,” “When will you return to Mexico?” asked Tar STAR nan. “I expect that everything requiring my presence nere will have been ‘settled in about six weeks, and then I will goto Batopilas. I shan’t do asf have done for the past seven yeurs, however, for It MMs my desire and intention to spend a portion of each year at my old home, Washington.” THE PROCESSION TO-NIGHT, Everything Ready for the Grand Mar- | shal to Give the Signal. Grand Marshal Dickson safd this afternoon that the machinery was all ready to move now; every detail was perfected and the success of thedemon- stration depended ouly on Providence and the Weather. He believed the freworks display would be the most effective ever seen in this city. The Procession, he said, would move at 8 o'clock sharp from the rendezvous. Thishour was fixed as it would be more convenient for workingmen who were to take part, and 1t was also desired by the fireworks men to reserve their display till after that hour, The route was only two miles and a half long. Mr. Dickson thought the Procession Would reach the reviewing-stand by 9 o'clock and be dismissed before 10. THE FREEDOM OF THE CITY TENDERED TO Gov. SHEPHERD.

The distribution of the estimate of $505,000 for the section’s schedule was made on the mean per- centage of taxable valuation, population, area, and square yards of streets to be improved, which, sald Col. Ludlow, 1s supposed to Tepresent the “needs” of the different sections. ‘The percentage allotted to each section 13, fore, as follow: ‘there- Georgetown.
