In addition to this several persons in different parts of the country, both near and far, were reported as deeply interested in the erection of « building. ENCOURAGING STEPS. Preliminary steps were taken preparatory to accepting the new charter obtained last Feb- ruary from Congress. This charter will give increased power to the university for the ac- quisition and control of property for ite permanent funds. The — elec- | tion of Rev. Dr. LBeiler to the office of vice chancellor by the executive commit- tee, which took place last March, was unani- mously confirmed. A beautiful relief map of the university site, showing the topography | of the grounds, was on exlubition.

Con- beginning | GOOD -BYE, PRINCESS. The Spanish Infanta Bids Farewell to Washington. SCENES AT THE STATION. Troops of Cavalry Escort the Distinguished Guests From the Arlington — She Waves Her Handkerchief as the Train Pulls Out—Last Night's Entertainments. Her royal highness, the Princess Eulalie, and her suite have left us. The charming impres- sion that she made upon all who met her the first day has been strengthened each hour since, and her visit to the capital has been in| every respect a splendid success. The princess fm every possible way has shown her apprecia- tion of the courtesies shown her and has carried away the most delightful remembrances of the time passed here. The Sumner annex at the Arlington this morning was a great contrast from the even quiet which has reigned there since the royal visitors took possession. The 102 pieces of bag- gage, big trunks and little ones, big bags and lesser ones, were dragged out of the rooms and were piled in towering pyramids in th baggage wagons. The royal flunkies, each with his uniform buttoned to the neck and each with his head wreathed in cigar smoke, looked serenely on while the hotel porters struggled and wrestled with the trunks. The royal servants pack bags and trunks, but they do not perspire moving them around. THE MILITARY ESCORT. Four companies of cavalry and s squad of mounted police were on hand shortly after nine. More policemen guarded the steps of the hotel to keep the throng back from che sidewalks, ‘The escort formed in line, the President's car- riage drawn by a spanking team of four with Willis on the box came to the carriage step, anf promptly at 9:30 o'clock the princess, escorted by Secretary Gresham and accom- panied by her husband, came out and took their places in it. With smiles and bows to Mr. Roessle, Mr. Bennett and others, whose faces bad grown very familiar to her the last five days, the princess left the picturesque surroundings of the Arlington and Lafayette Square. Along the avenue she saw on every side evidences of the intense, friendly interest that has attended her on every public appearance. The men raised their hats and the ladies waved their handkerchiefs. The cable cars were all stopped while the procession escorting the princess was on the avenue. AT THE STATION. The Pennsylvania station was reached Promptly at 9:55. The cavalry drew up in Single file on each side of the street, and the carriuges containing the royal party came to the 6th street entrance. — Lieut. Kelly kad a squad of twenty-five men stretched along from the curb on both sides to the iron tailing inside the depot. A wide strip of carpet extended all this distance clear along to the end of the special train, 80 that the royal feet did not at any moment touch the plebeian asphalt or stone. A group of white-capped railroad officials and a dozen or more policemen were near the end of the rear car. Mr. Robert A Parke of the Pennsylvania road, under whose super- Vision all the traveling of the royal party in this country will be directed, consiituted on the part of his road s most important com- mittee of one. TAKING A LAST GLANCE. Secretary Gresham escorted the princess to the car, she bowing and smiling at every smiling face that met hers. Prince Antoine followed quickly after his royal spouse. Mr. Parke assisted her royal highness to the platform. She disappeared inside the car, but instantly came out. A sea of faces met hers asthe looked toward the waiting plat- form, and every single eye there wanted tolook at her and nobody else. There was & wait of just four minutes before the train started. The princess used it in speaking now and then to the little group of friends on the plat- form and smiling und bowing in response to the enthusiasticshouts of the crowd. The marchioness stood behind her holding her bouquet, a great bunch of lilies of the valley, tied with long streamers of red and yellow ribbon. Secretary Gresbam stepped down on the platform and exchanged a word with Col. Wilson, Mr. and Mra. Curry, Miss Connolly, Mrs. and Miss Segrario, Mra. Davis and the members of the Spanish legation, who had assembled to seo the princess. The Spanish minster was not able to go to the station to see the princess off, owing to a sudden attack of rheumatism. At the last minute before 10 the princess and her husband had the platform all to them- selves. Ax the gong sounded and tl train pulled ont it was the woman ani not royal lady who came to the front. She pulled out her handkerchief, waved it, bowed again and again, and the last Washington saw of its royal guest the bit of white lawn was still fluttering. WER TRAVELING COSTUME. ‘The traveling costume of her royal highness ‘might well be taken for a model for early sum- | mer jaunts, It was a tailor-made gown of soft gray serge. The skirt was a plain bdeil shape and the double-breasted jacket of good length had « tura-over velvet collar of a little darker shade. Her hat was a small sailor of black and white straw with a bunch of scarlet poppies in | front. A white lace veil with a fancy edge | worn with it. A big bunch of yellow roses were tucked in her coat lapel. Her russet shoes and her comfortably fitting gloves matched in color. Her sunshade was of flowered white silk. ‘The traveling smit of the prince was of gray serge not unlike that worn by his wife. He wore russet shoes, too, and his head gear was a soft gray Alpine of the latest mode. LUXURIOUS TRAVELING. The royal party will travel Inxuriously to New York. The special train was made up of four of the finest Pullmans, consisting of com- bined smoker and baggage car Antony, dining car Capitol, parlor car Marjorie, and special car | Idlewild.“ The last named was for the use of the princess and suite, and is an observation private car. Every possible luxury in modern railroad equipment was in evidence. The drawing room in the center had tables }and easy chairs and it was there the royal | breakfast was served at noon. The sides of the car were hidden with asparagus plumosa. | Vases of long stemmed American beauties tied in clusters with red and yellow ribbons were on the tables. A boquet from Mrs. Cleve- land was an ornament of another table. Commander Davis accompanied the royal party to New York. ‘The train will arrive in Jersey City at 3 p. m., muking the run in five hours. The New York reception committee will meet the princess on arrival and take her by steamer from Jersey City to 52d street. where, with immense mili- tary escort, she will be taken to the Hotel Savoy. The Spanish minister and several mem- | bers of the legation will accompany the princess to New York. The princess will leave New York city for Chicago, by the Pennsylvania railroad, about the 2d of June, although the date of departure is subject to a chan ‘The trip from New York to Chicago will be made on fast schedule, the leaving time being so arranged from New York that the trip to Pittsburg will be by daylight, giving an oppor- tunity of seeing the magnificent scenery for which this line is noted. _ THE PRINCESS SATISFIED. A dispatch from Havana says: The news that President Cleveland had not called upon the infanta in return for the infanta’s visit to the | White House has made an unpleasant | impression here, and the public journals com- plain of President Cleveland's attitude toward the royal guest of the United States. In regard to this it may be stated that the princess, in contrasting her entertainment here | With that received in Havana, where all royal honors were paid her, drew ‘many 4attering comparisons in favor of American customs. The Queen's Birthday Ball. The queen's birthday ball last night at the | British iegation outshone in every way any social event that has ever occurred Junder its hospitable roof. Royalty | graced the occasion by its presence, and the most prominent figures in the diplomatic, | official and resident world of the capital of the | greatest nation on the globe guve official dignity and local color to a most bviiliant scene. Shortly after 10 o'clock many of the guests had | arrived. Precisely a half hour later the charming | Princess Eutslie and her suite eame and were for the rest of the evening the observed of all observers, ‘Ihe British ambassador and Lady Pauncefote, attended by the sec- retaries of legation, went out to the very of their’ threshhold to meet the princess. They would have gone down to the carriage step had she not 60 quickly divined Prince Antoine foliowed after them. A raised dais hnd been arranged in the deep recess of the bay window of the ball room. It was covered with crimson carpet and two chairs were there for the roval Immediately the presentations com- meuced. ‘The guests came forward and had the pleasure of shaking hands with the winsome princess or courtesying and kissing her hand, precisely as they pleased. She seemed just as well pleased with one form as another. She had a gracious word for each |and her smile, over which all Washington is | raving, seemed more pleasing than ever last | night.’ Yesterday she cabled her congratulations | to Queen Victoria, and last night was without exception the most admired and distinguished | guest that has ever been entertained at the house of her majesty’s embassy. A MAGNIFICENT TOILET. Coming straight from the diplomatic recep- tion at the Arlington,she wore the magnificent toilet donned for that occasion. It was a court dress of white satin. The skirt was plain, ex- cept for strips of jeweled lace extending down | each seam of the gored skirt. The bodice had | the same trimming and the sleeves were tiny | puffs of satin. Probably no such costly collection of em- | eralds and diamonds us hers has ever been seen | here. Her necklace was a string of emeralds, each as big as a chestnut and each surrounded by large diamonds. The emernids and dia- monds in the pendant were of a larger size. A cotsage ornament of « still larger emerald, set with diamonds, had three pendant pear-shaped emeralds of & lighter shade, and these were set with diamond borders. In her hair a tiara of the same gems flashed with every movement. Diamondand emerald bracelets were also worn. She carried @ small Spanish fan with mother-of-pearl sticks. ‘THE ROYAL SUPPER TABLE. When supper was announced at balf-past eleven their royal highnesses’ supped in the library at a gaily decorated table. Besides the host and hostess the others at the table were the Secretary of State an . am, the Secretary of the Treasu ‘arlisle, the French ambassador and the Spanish minister. The other guests had their supper in the dining room. Miss Pauncefote received most of the guests of the evening at the door of the second draw- ing room. ‘Then they passed along to the bell room to join the throng who were being pre- sented with all royal honors to the Princess Eulalie. Lady Pauncefote wore an elegant gown of gray satin and many superb gems. Miss Paunce- fote was in white silk with pretty Ince trimmings and Miss Sybil wore white silk with light green velvet. The embassy was tastefully decorated with a rofusion of palms. The grand staircase was ined with palms leading up to the queen's por- trait on the first landing, where they were massed ina great bunch. ‘The balcony was hung with flags of all nations. In honor of the royal guest the Spanish flag was draped over the door- way, and in the dining room the union jack, the ‘stars and stripes and the Spanish colors were draped in unison. ‘The Marine Band played during the evening. The musicians were stationed in the hall just outside the bull room. Dancing did not com- mence until after supper, when the royal party had returned to their dais in the ball room and gave royal app-oval to the prolonging of the festivities. The ‘tof the guests did not leave till several hours after midnight. SOME OF THE GUESTS.

The first honor was won by Miss Maud Mc- Afee, while Mr. Frank Johnson and Mr. Me- Kendree Walker were tied for the recond honor. ‘The program was an interesting one, as fol- | lows: , Mr. Ralph Clarke; salatatory, Miss Maud McAfee: mundolin and guitar duet.

Commissioner Ross made a strong address, in which he expressed his opinion that coeduca- tion was something which would be universally tuken up. He believed that the system was the best for the public schools. Coeducation thought Mr. Ross, made men mote manly and girls more womanly. Women, he held, bad not yet re- ceived their just due in the struggle for exist- ence. ‘They were entitied to ns good yas men for equal work, and should receive it. He hoped to see the time when women could enter on the active work of hfe without having to breast the storm of difficulties which now oppose them, and when that time came the world would be better nd wiser and more humanity would be found in it, iii ‘The Kearsarge at Portsmouth.

He intimates in one paragraph that the cost of the bureau has been greater during tho |time the bureau has been under (civil control than during the signal service or army regime. In this he is greatly in error and his informant has as usual given | him data without accompanying facts, which, according to the accepted notion in this in- vestigation, he bas greedily swallowed. During ten years under the army control the expenses of the bureau averaged an annual expenditure | of 2924.60.70, and under two years of civil control the average was only $880,456.72, giving an annual balance in favor of the civil | organization of $44,174.05, and Gen. Colby pro- fesses to find a balance in favor of the military management, but he says nothing in regard to the fact that in the last eight vears of military | control there was a deficiency rising as high in | 1891 as $64,613.27. In that year, the last under | military management, the expenses of the bu- Teau were $877.650.80. Both years that the bureau has been under civil control a consider- abie portion of the appropriation Lins been cov- ered back into the treasury unexpended. In 1892 $27,975.57 were so returned, and in 1693 $10,000. There is a vast difference i appropriations and oxpes- | and as I have said, if Gen. y had thought fit to look into a’ matter. on which he reports, he would have found that the average annual balance in favor of the civil organization is $44,174.05. MAPS AND BULLETING, “There is another thing in regard to the two controls to which attention should be called. The weather bureau is certainly the most useful to the agricultural class and the number of weather maps and crop bulletins issued is a criterion of usefulness. In this respect the figures show that under the signal service the average number of these issued daring the Inst five years was 758,300, while the average for the two years of civil management was 2,418,500. ‘These figures speak for themselves.” ALEXANDRIA. THE CITY ELECTION TODAY. The actual election of city officials took place at the democratic primaries a few weeks ago. The vote today merely gives legal form and shape to the decision then made, but there may be an exception. In the fourth ward Mr. Paul &. Evans, one of the Present delegation from that ward who was chosen at the last election without a primary nomination. is again an independent candidate. Mr. J. H. Lob is also an inde: pendent candidate for council in the second ward and there are some nominees for other offices. From sunrise to sunset the polls will be open, but the quietest form of quietude seems likely to characterize the election. THE NEXT CITY TREASURER. Judge Norton will have ample time to select city treasurer, as Treasurer Harlowe’s resig- nation will not take place for several months. ‘The compensation of the treasurer is small and the bond, which will now be $150,000, is a very heavy one. Mr. L. E. Ubler, the present chair- man of the finance committee, an official of the Citizens’ National Bank, has been suggested for the place, but no candidate has yet announced himself. DECORATION DAY SERVICES. Davis Post, G. A. R., of this city 1s arranging for the observance of Decoration day at the Soldiers’ cemetery here. They will have as- sistance from Washington, and the Alex- andria Light Infantry will at sunset fire & salute over the graves. It seems emi- nently proper that the Knights of Pytbias, organized “to bridge the chasm” and which took partin the decoration services yesterday, should also take part in those to occur next week. WASHINGTON CONFEDERATE VISITORS. The observance of confederate decoration day yesterday was carried out in accordance with the program reported yesterday to Tux Stan. The Washington Confederate Asso- ciation and many other residents of the Dis- trict came down and took active part in the exercises and were cordially entertained. “PASSING OVER THE RIVE!
