Going Through With a Parliament- ary Ceremony, FALL RIVER'S MYSTERIOUS CRIME. Western Telegraphers Threaten to Strike. THE KAISER’S YACHT BEATEN A PARLIAMENTARY CEREMONY. The Commission of the New Body Read im the House of Lords, Loxnoy, Aug. 5.—At noon today the speaker of the house of commonstook the chair. There was a meager attendance of the government supporters, many of the seats on their side of the house being unoccupied, but there was a fair number of the opposition present. Sir Charles Dilke took the seat formerly occupied by Mr. Henry La- bouchere. Sir. Wm. Vernon Harcourt led the opposition. Mr. Joseph Chamberlain selected a eeat ina corner above the gungway. Soon after the house assembled the gentle- man usher of the black rod summoned the mem- bers of the house to attend in the house lords and hear the commission the new parliament read. — Mr. the | speaker, attired | in court dress and attended by the members present, obeyed the rummons and proceeded to the house of lords, where the commission in full robes were found waiting to receive him. ‘There the speaker said a good word for him- self, according to custom. He informed their lordships that the faithful commons would pro- ceed with the election of a presiding function ary, and that “in the exercise of ther un- doubled. rights ‘and privileges” they had looked in his own direction. Whereupon the lord chancellor assured him that “‘her maj- esty is ao fully sensible of your zeal for the public service and of your ample effidiency to exercise the right and rules which the faithfal commons have selected you to discharge that she does mont readily approve and confirm you.’ Following thereon the speaker submitted him. self “with all humility and gratitude” to her majesty's gracious commands, and pro- on their behalf to’ claim for the commons their undoubted — rights and privileges, especially to “freedom of specch in debate, to freedom from arrest of their persons and servants, and particularly to free access to her majesty’ when occasion shall require.” Asking also that ‘tho moat favorable constructions shall be placed upon their words and actions.” With due humility the «peaker | leaded that “if any error shall be committed” it might be imputed to himeelf. After these ceremonies had been performed the members of the commons, led by the speak- ers, returned to the house, where Mr. Peel nigned | the roll and took the oath of office. He was fol- | lowed in this duty by the privy councillors present and by the members, who, as is custom- ary, took the oath in batches of five. The form of oath is very short and is in these words: “I swear thet I will be faithful to her majesty Queen Victoria, her heirs and success- ora, according to law. So help me God.” The first batch sworn consisted of Sir William | Vernon Harcourt, Lord George Francis Hamil- ton, first lord of the admiralty; Sir Michuel Hicks-Beach, president of the board of trade; Rt. Hon. Henry Matthews. the home secretary, and Rt, Hon. Edward Stanhope, secretary of state for wa When Baron De Worms, under secretary of state for the colonies, was sworn in he, in ac- cordance with the Jewish custom, wore his hat.

No Trace of the Slayer of Mr. and Mrs. Borden, Faut River, Mass, Aug. 5.—After » moat thorough and persistent scarch no trace has been found of the murderer of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew J. Borden. Four policemen aro on guard at the house and have been patrolling | the neighborhood since the affair was made public. This morning State Detective Seaver and City Marrbal Hilliard held a long consultation, and later on visited and interrogated Mins Liz zie at the house. The result of their investiga- tion will not be known until an arrest of some kind has been made. ‘The funeral will take place tomorrow morn- ing at 11 o'clock and will be strictly private. ‘The services will bo conducted by City Mis- sionary Buck, who was a close friend of the family, and the interment will take place at Oak Grove cemetery. ‘At the prosent time both bodies are lying in 4 dining room, the windows of ‘which a servant was shortly before the tragedy became known. strict watch that has been kept over John W.
