President Harrison's speech at Atlanta yes- terday was a happy effort and wasreceived with cheers. The President said: “My fellow citizens, I desire in parting from you to give a public expression of my satisfac- tion and enjoyment in the brief visit to At- Janta. I saw the city once under circumstances of @ very unfavorable character. I did not think then I would like it, although we were making a great effort to get it. (Laughter.] Tam glad after all these years to see the great Prosperity and development that has come to you. Ithink Iam able to understand some of the influences that are at the bottom of it all, and I am sure that as I look into the faces of the community that whatever their differences may have been, however they viewed the ques- tion of the war when it was upon us, I can have but one thought now as to what was best. We can all say, the confederate soldier who carried gun for what seemed to him to be right as well as the soldier of the north, that the Lord knew better than any of us what was best for the country and the world. “You are thankful for what he has wrought and chiefly for emancipation. It has opened up to diversified industries these states that were otherwise exclusively agricultural, and made it possible for you not only to raise cot- ton, but to spin and weave it, and has made Georgia such a state as it could not have been under the old conditions. I am sure we now have many common purposes, and as God shall give us the power tosee the truth and the Tight, let us do our duty, and while exacting all our own right let us bravely and generously give to every other man his equal rights before the law. [Cheers.] “Thank you for your reception, which has been warm and hospitable. I go from you very grateful for your kindness, very full’ of hope for your future. Teannot wish more than that the enterprising land owners whose work in gtading and laying out new additions I saw yes- ize all their hopes. I am sure if that is done Atlanta will not long be rated the second city in the south.” [Cheers.} ‘TME TRIP TO BIRMINGHAM. The presidential party had a delightful six- hour trip from Atlanta ‘o Birmingham. The special engine provided was com- pletely covered with flags and bunting and dis- played in front @ large portrait. A salute was fired when the train reached Lithia Springs and the President was cheered by a large crowd gathered at the station. He bowed his ac- knowiedgments and was again cheered. Sim lar scenes occurred at Waco and other small towns along the route. The President showed great interest in the celebrated red hills of Georgia, cotton plantations, and the evidences of enterprise to be seen on every side. A f ture of the run to Birmingham was the promi- nent display of the American colors at all the stations. The patriotic display of tlags was par- ticularly noticed at Tallapoosa, known in that region as a “Yankee city under a southern sun,” because #@ much New England capital is invested there. Tallapoosa gave the President ® cordial reception. He was greeted with the blowing of steam whistles, the playing of “Hail to the Chief” by a local band and the cheers of the populace. Mayor Head welcomed the President and in- troduced him to the people. The President stood on the rear platform of the train and made an address. When the President concluded the local post- master approached and presented hickory canes to Mr. Harrison and the Postmaster Gen- eral and other persons presented flowers to the ladies of the Soon after passing Talla- poosa the train crossed the Georgia line into Alabama and at the same time the governor of Alabama and his staff left Birmingham in a special train to meet the President. ‘There wasagreat crowd at Anniston and this reception of the party was most en- thusiastic. Hon. John Noble, mayor of Anniston, who had joined the party at Atlanta, acted us master of ceremonies and introduced ex- Lieut. Gov. John M. MeKleroy, who delivered an eloquent and patriotic address of welcome. ‘Mr. Wm. Stevens also made a h on be- half of the colored population. The President responded as follows: Fellow citizens: I very much regret that I am able to make so little return to you for this cordial manifestation of your respect and friend- ship, and yet even in these few moments which Tam able to spend with you I hope I shall gather and possibly be able to impart some im- | pulse that may be mutually beneficial. Iam glad to see with the eve that of which I have Kept informed—the great development which is taking place in the mineral regions of the southern states. I remember well as a boy, resident upon one of the great tributaries of the Mississippi, how the great agricultural products of those states, the corn and pro- Visions raised upon the fertile acres of the Ohio and Mississippi valley, were marketed in the south. The old “Broad Horn” took its way down the Mississippi, stopping at the planta- | tions to sell the provisions upon which the people of the south were largely sustained. south was then essentially a plantation region, producing one or two great staples that found # ready market in the world, but dependent for its implements of industry’ and domestic utensils upon the states of the north Mississippi valley. I'am glad all this is changed; that you are realizing the benefits of diversified agriculture aud that the production upon your farms of the staples which you once bought elsewhere is largely increasing; and I am glad that to diversified ugriculture you have also added these great mechanical pursuits which have brought into your communities artisans and laborers who take from the adjacent farms the surplus of your fertile lands. [Cheers.} “There bas been received in the south since the war not less than $8,000,000,000 for cotton, and while I rejoice in that I'am giad to know ‘thas in ee region there are near 100,- 000 acres devoted to raising watermelons. (Langhtec.] No furmer—certainly no planter— im the old time would have consented to sell watermelons. You are learning that things which were small and despised have come to be great elements in your commerce. Now your railroads make special provision for the trans- rtation of a crop which in the aggregate Brings large wealth to your people. I mention this ay a good illustration of the changing con- ditions into which you are entering. You a realizing benefits of home markets for what you produce and Iam sure you will unite with me in those efforts which we ought to make, not only to fill our own markets with all that this great nation of 65,000,000 needs, but to reach out to other markets und enter into com- petition with the world for them. [Cheers.] This we shall do, and with all this mechani- cal and commercial development we shall real- ize largely that condition of unification of heart and interest to which those who have spoken for you have so eloquently alluded. [oiears | And now, wishing that tke expectation of who are interested in this stirring young city may be realized, that all your industries may be “active and profitable, Ladd the wish that those gentler and kindlier agencies of the school and church, of a friendly, social life, may always pervade and abide with you as a community.” (Cheers.} AT BIRMINGRAM. ‘The President's reception at Birmingham was # genuine ovation and the demonstration was the noisiest that bas been experienced on the trip. This was due to the fi of cannon and the simultaneous screaming of hundreds of locomotive and factory whistles and the en- thusiastic cheering of the concourse that thronged the station and adjoining streets. Gov. Jones and his staff, in full uniform, and a committee of citizens met the presiden tial party at Henryellen and ese it to the cig, chase the Pradhanh-wen: ceacama by the’ mayor and other municipal officers Drawn up in line in and near the station were the Grand Army post, the Confederate Vet- erans’ Association. the ‘local militia, represen- tatives of the militia of Selma and Montgomery and public school children and behind them were massed an immense crowd of le. The city was elal decorated with the na- tional colors and beautiful white dogwood blossoms and business was generally sus- Addresses of welcome wore made at the sta- tion by Gov. Jones and Mayor Lane, and when the President arose to he was greeted with ssecen, Wen ‘quiet, San > stored the $s said: ‘THE PRESIDENT'S REMARKS. “Gov.

Jeave something to you that is worth cher- ny ,,,_litent cheering. | “I have read of the marvelous development qc in the last few years has been, stirring the solitude of these southern mountains and remember that not many years after the war, when I had resumed my law practice at Indian: ‘polis, I was visited bya gentleman known, I expect, to all of you, upon some professional business, but he seemed to be more interested in talking about Birmingham than anything else. (Laughter and cheers.) “That man was Col. Powell, one of the early romoters of your city. [Cheers.] I listened to fis story of the -marvelous wealth of iron and coal that was stored in this region, of their nearness to each other, and to the limestone necessary for smelting; to his calculations as to the cheapness with which iron could be pro- duced here, and his glowing story of the great city that was to be reared, with a good deal of inerednlity. (Laughter.} ‘I thought he was a visionary, but I have regretted ever since that I did not ask him to pay me my fee in town lots in Birmingham. (Laughter and cheers.) “My countrymen, we thought the war a great calamity, and to it was. The destruction of life and property was great and sad beyond ex- pression; and yet we fn see now that God led us through that Red Sea to a development in material prosperity and to afraternity that was not otherwise possible. (Cheers). ‘Ihe indus- tries that have called to your midst so many toiling men are, always aid everywhere the concomitants of freedom. Out of all this free- dom from the incubus of slavery the south has found a new industrial birth, one almost wholly agricultural. You are now not the less fruitful in crops, but you have added all this. [Cheers]. You have increased your production of cotton, and you have added an increase in ten yearsof nearly three hundred per cent to the produc- ton of iron. You have produced three-fourths of the cotton crop of the world, and it has brought you since the war about eight billion doliars of money to enrieh your people; but as yet You aro spinning in the sosth only eight per cent of it. Why not, with the help we will give you in New England and the north, spin it all? [Cheers ‘Why not establish here cotton mills, that shall send not the crade agricultural product to other markets, but the manufactured pro- duct? (Cheers.) Why not, while supplying {65,000,000 of people, reach out and take a part we have not had in the commerce of the world? {Cheers.] “I believe we are to see now @ renaissance in American prosperity and in the upbuilding again of our American merchant marine. (Cheers.] I believe that these southern ports that so favorably look out with invitations to the states of Central and South America shall et see our fleets carrying the American flag \d the products of Alnbama to the murkets of South America. [Great cheering.] In all this we are united. We may differ as to what method, but if you will permit me I will give an illustration to show how we have been deal- ing with this shipping question. I can remom- ber when no wholesale merchant ever sent a drummer into the field. He said to his cus- tomers, “come to my store and buy,” petition increased, and the enterprising me chant started out men to seek customers,and so his fellow merchant was put to the choice to | put traveling men into the field or to go out of business. may think of the policy of aiding our steam- ship lines, since eyery other nation does it, we must do it or stay Out of the business; for we have prett; glad to recipro y heart with every fraternal expression t fallen from the lips of these gentlemen who have addressed me in your behalf. [Cheers.] Thave not been saved from mistakes, probably Ishall not be. Iam sure of but one thing. 1 can declare that I have simply at heart the glory of the American nation and the good of allits people. [Great and prolonged cheer- ing.] Ithank these companies of the state militia, one of whom I recognize as having done me the honor to atteud the inauguration ceremonies, for their presence ‘hey are deserving, sir (t0 the governor), ‘our encouragement and of the state of Alabama. ‘They are the reserve army of the United States. “It 1s our policy not to hav large regular army, but to have a trained mil tia that in any exigency will step to the defense of the country, and if an exigency should ever arise—which God forbid—i know that you would resp: quickly and readily a6 any other state.” (Cheers.) ‘The governor: “You will find all Alabama at you back.” (Continued cheering.} “I am glad to know that in addition to all this business you are doing you are alsy attend- ing to education and to those things that ¢ duce to social order. ‘The American hotue is the one thing we cannot afford to lose out of the American life. (Cheers.] As long as we have pure homes and God-fearing,order-loving fathers and mothers to rear the children that are given to them, and make these homes the abodes of order, cleanliness, piety and intelli- gence, the American society and the American Union are safe.” (Gzeat and prolonged cheer- | ing.) F TOUR OF THE cITY. The presidential party then made a tour of the city and were received with enthusiasm all along the route. The President rode in com- pany with the governor and mayor in a large open carriage drawn by four splendid gray horses. As he reached the O'brien Opera House he was greeted by the familiar strains of “America,” sung by members of the Green- wood Opera Company. ‘the President ac- knowledged their compliment by standing in the carriage and bowing with “his hat in his hand. ‘This act aroused the wildest enthusiasm, and caused a temporary check in the progress of the procession. After a visit to South Highlands, a beautiful suburban resort, the President and his party repaired to the Caldwell House, where a public reception lasting an hour was held. A very large crowd attended and supper was afterward served. ‘The purty returned to the train ht 8 o'clock and immediately started for Memphis. Just as the train was leaving Birmingham the party wus presented by a local merchant with « rge supply of palm-leaf fans, which the pre- vailing hot spell rendered most acceptable. VIEWS OF ITALIAN NEWSPAPERS. What Editorial Subjects of King Humbert ‘Think of Secretary Blaine’s Reply. The Capitan Fracassa of Rome, in an article published today, says: “Mr. Blaine’s note to the Marquis di Rudini is justifiably proud and caustic, coming, as it does, from the lips of a minister of a great people, but its substance is less severe. While affect- ing to concede nothing, Mr. Blaine really indi- | cates to Italy the path she should follow in | order to obtain justice.” ‘The Tribuna says that Secretary Blaine aims above all to divert the attention of Italy from the real question at issue. But this, it wads, will not easily be done. The Opinione applauds the declarations of Premier di Rudini, but says the public ought to reserve its judgment on the affair until the text of Mr. Biaine’s last note is known. LEco D'italia of New York says: “Blaine’s last note to the Marqnis di Rudini, thor- oughly examined, leaves the impression of a vulgur, insidious, peevish plea, such as a counsellor with more artfulness than honesty usualiy Cage fora bad clientand a wretched suit. He dodges the main thesis; he rambles about and, in the whole, says nothing. In Rome it will certainly be considered in this light. The Marquis di Rudini, to whom a of Blaine’s answer had been cabled, re- ported in full parliament, amid the cheers of the whole ehamber, that the diplomatic contro- versy between Italy and the United States will rosecut parti y lew Or- laughter and bas indemnified the vic- tims’ families, and this is what Italy basa right to demand and expect.” ———_—+eo—____ Success of Mrs, Cleveland’s Spaniel.

His Story of Chief Hennossy's Assassination Made Pablic. 5. The New Orleans grand jury in its forthcom- ing report upon the Hennessy murder, the subsequent miscarriage of justice and the wreaking of popular vengeance upon the Italian suspects in the parish prison, will for the first time give to the public the confession of Manuel Politz. The statement he minde never reached the jury. The state claimed that while Polit in- criminated others he protested his own inno- cence, and besides there were contradictions in his confession which would destroy its value. There was strong evidence against Politz, and it wes preferred to hold him prisoner. Politz’s confession was made to the district attorney. About the same story was,told to his attorney and portions of it were told at various ‘times to those who came in contact with him. “I had,” said he, “joined a certain society of my countrymen, the president of which was Charles Matranga. This society, I supposed, was formed for the benefit of my' countrymen: Macheca, Matranga and others were prominent members. On a Saturday night I was at a meoting of the society at which Matrangu, Ma- checa and others were present. It was there stated that the purpose of the meeting was to decide who were to ‘do’ Chief Hennessy. The names of the members were placed in a box by numbers and ten were drawn thorefrom. These ten men were notified to meet and arrange the manner and means of carrying out the work allotted to them. The men met in a room over a place owned by Duffee. The money was then distributed among six men, each one receiving about two hundred dollars. I was asked to carry a sack of guns from the meeting room to the house of shoemaker, Monasterio, on Girod near Basin. I refused to do #0, not knowing at the timo why the guns were to be taken there. Matranga was there and said he would carry the sack. Two later mectings were held near the Poydras Market. Iam not sure whether the money was distributed at these meetings or at Duffee’s. “The plan agreed upon was that on the night of October 15 every one was to mect at Monas- terio’s place. Marchesi’s boy was instructed to be on the lookout and watch the approach of Chiet Hennessy. He was to wait on Rampart street, and when he made sure that the chicf was coming he was to pass Hennessy and ran rapidly out Girod street, and when opposite Monasterio's was to give’ the peculiar Italian en the whistle was given by the boy on the night of the 15th of October Monasterio opened the door and said to the others ‘The chief, the chief.’ ‘The rest then stepped out through the side door of Monasterio's shanty and through the large gate into the street, im- diately opening fire upon the man on the oppo- site side who was quietly walking along. Scaffedi, Marchesi, Bagnetto and Monasterio killed the chief. I was not there and did not know anything about the killing until the fol- lowing Sunday morning. I heard of Hen- nessy's shooting for the first time on that Sun- day morning when my landlord, Jobn, was reading the paper.” The Water Works Convention Adjourns. The American Water Works Association, which has been in session in Philadelphia for the past three days, concluded its business yesterday aud adjourned. ‘The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: President, J.

BOONE B Senator Hawk Preferences. Senator Hawley, who has been nominated to succeed Secretary of War Proctor by several Connecticut papers, said yesterday that he did not care about succeeding to a cabinet posi- tion, but if the opportunity came he could not say what he would do.

If Lord Salisbury had treated France as he had treated America in the Bering sea ques- tion all present trouble would ave been saved.” Both Mr. Morine and Mr. Emerson admitted that the present anomalous position in New- foundland was bound to lead to annexation to America, —+ oo Official Count in Chicago. The official canvass of the election returns for mayor was practically completed yesterday in 29 of the 34 wards in Chicago. Taking the official count inthese 29,wards and the city hall unofiicial returns for the remaining five wards, the result is a plurality of 1304 for Hempstead Washburne, republican, over the democratic incumbent, Dewitt C. Cregier. In_ the official canvass the figures in several wards are still subject to re- vision, but it is believed there will be little or no change from the plurality now given. cee Mines Led to Suicide. Maj. Benjamin F.

He wont to Boston about cight woeks ago, partly on a visit, and for four weeks has occupied rooms with a friend at the ‘olambus avenue house, where, since Sunday, he has been suffering with the grip.
