CANADA’S LOYALTY. A Resolution Adopted by the House of Commons. A resolution introduced by Mr. McNeill, conservative, was unanimously adopted by the Canadian house of commons yester- day, declaring Canada’s inalienable loyalty to the British throne and her willingness, in case of war, to make any sacrifice for the integrity of the empire. Speaking of the resolution, Mr. McNelll declared that he had drafted it with a view of letting the people of the United States know just where Canada would stand in the event of war. The people of the re- public, he said, believed Canadians would seize the first opportunity of altering their allegiance from England 40 the United Sta and that the waving of the stars and stripes in place of the union jack would be hailed with peals of joy from all Cana- dians. It was annoying to Canadians that their feeling should be so misinterpreted and mis- understood. There was not a constituency in the country in which an annexation can- didate would- have a ghost of a chance of election. If the Americans did not let Canada work out her own destiny, when the time comes, Canadians would make it clear to the world that they would defend their birthright. L. D, Davies (liberal) seconded the reso- lution. He urged, however, the mutual advantages of an Anglo-American alliance. No aggregation of nations, he said, could ever hope to combat successfully an al- Hance of the greatest empire and the great- est republic that the world had ever seen. Sir Richard Cartwright (liberal) regretted the recent outbreak of ill feeling between Great Britain and the United States. “As Canada is placed,” he added, “her future is clear. She will have to remain a hostage to the United States for England’s good behavior or else join the United States. Which it will be the most honorable or the best course for Canada to pursue, I leave for Canadians to decide.” G. E. Foster, leader of the house of com- mons, indorsed the resolutions, as did also Wilfred Laurier, leader of the liberals. The motion was carried unanimously. eee ENGLAND'S CONTENTION. Claim to the Disputed Territory in South America. Clements Markham, F. R. S., president of the Royal Geographical Society, contribut- ed a two-column letter to the Times yester- day, minutely describing all the cartog- raphy evidence obtainable in the society's map room bearing on the disputed bound- aries of Guiana from the year 1570 onward. He says that by the treaty of 1814 the Dutch ceded the portion of Guiana, in- cluding the Essequibo basin, to Great Britain, and that Spain, then the sovereign of Venezuela, was a party to the treaty. “As the inheritor from Spain of that sovereignty,” the letter goes on to say, “the Venezuelan republic is bound in honor to adhere to the treaty of 1814, which abro- gated all previous claims eyer made by Spain, and secured to Great Britain the sovereignty of the whole of the Essequibo basin.” After detailing Robert Schomburgk’s ex- plorations, Mr. Markham contends that the concession of the Yuruari valley, which was British territory, to Venezuela, shows that nothing could have been further from the thoughts of English statesmen than an infringement of the Monrge doctrine. He concludes that even ‘if tHe territory which Venezuela claims were adjudged not to belong to Great Britain it dées not fol- low that it belongs to Venezuela. Great Britain’s right, he claims, rests on dis- covery, on a Dutch possession of three cen- turies, on effective occupation; and on a treaty. is x i Texas Democrats Disagreed. The state democratic executive commit- tee, which convened in Austin, Tex., yes- terday, is, from present indications, about to lay the foundation for one of the big- gest party eplits ever heard of. The row is over the matter of holding one or two state conventions. _The ‘gold ‘men favor two conventions, one to select delegates to the national convention and the other to make state nominations, At a caucus held they developed strength of 16 votes out of a@ possible 31, which goes to prove that they have the situation grabbed by a ma- jority of one vote.

COLLEGE BANQUETS Alumni of Three Universities Gath- er at Annual Dinners. FAIR HARVARD'S Bla REPRESENTATION The Tigers of Princeton Enjoy Themselves in Great Shape. GREAT MEN OF BOWDOIN The thirteenth annual banquet of the Washington Harvard Club was held at the Shoreham last night, and in many respects it was the most enjoyable gathering that the Harvard men in Washington have had. The occasion was made unusually interest- ing by the presence of the president of Har- vard University, Mr. Charles A. Eliot; the president of the Baltimore Harvard Club, Mr. Leigh Bonsall; Mr. Joshua Pferce, a graduate of Emanual College, England; Postmaster General Wm. L. Wilson, the Japanese minister, Mr. Kurino, and other gentlemen distinguished in many walks of life, all of whom, with the exception of the Postmaster General and Mr. Pierce, acknowledge Harvard as their alma mater. ‘The rose-tinted shades of a hundred electric globes shed a softened light upon the long tables, decorated with rich roses and rare orchids. The menu was all that could be desired, and the Madrid Quartet furnished excellent music during the dinner. The venerable president of the club, Judge Edward Lander, sat at the head of the table, and when the wreath of smoke began to curl up he rapped for order, and, after a reference to his own college days and the many changes that have since taken place, proposed the toast “Harvard College and Harvard University,” and called upon Presi- dent Eliot to respond. Every man rose to his feet, raised his glass aloft, and greeted the distinguished guest with an energetic college yell, followed by loud and prolonged applause, President Eliot's Speech. President Eliot reviewed the changes that have taken place at Harvard, referring especially to Its development from a sec- tarian to a non-sectarian Institution, no one sect being now represented by more than one-eighth of the entire number of students. He said the university has come to represent the American people and every sort of opin- jon that prevails in the country. He referred to the great advancement in facilities for professional training, and emphasized the fact that the great object of the university is to produce men whose habit of thought is independent. The influence of Harvard men in everything is rapidly growing, and Har- yard men ares distinguished in the communi- les in which they settle for in : of thought. He continued: eee “Harvard remains, gentlemen, 28 you left {t, a very democratic institution, especially from a social standpoint. And yet inequali- tiles are developed in free institutions. We must not look in the university for equality of individuals. On the contrary, we must look for inequalities of condition, and for sets based on social affinity. These are the natural results of liberty, and the only way to prevent inequalities of position and sets 4s to establish a grinding despotism. It gives me great pleasure to meet a group of Har- vard men; it seems like a kind of reward. I See an infinitive and varied serviceableness, and to increase this serviceableness 1s the main motive for steady, hard work for all who are connected with the university, and who are now making it what it shall After “three times three for Eliot” had been given, President Lander suggested that a fraternal message be sent to the Princeton banqueters, and detailed Messrs. Webb and Montague to convey thelr ex- Pressions of regard. He then called upon Postmaster General Wilson to respond to ‘The scholar in politics.” Mr. Wilson de- livered a ringing address, and was fre- quently interrupted with’ applause. He spoke of the difficulty of conducting a gov- ernment by universal suffrage, and said it was here that the colleges wielded a mighty influence by giving to the country men such as are capable of coping with the problem. “The college men,” he said, “are the salvation of this country, and are to make the great experiment of free govern- ment ultimately a success in the common- wealth of American states.”” Mr. Leigh Bonsall, president of the Balti- more Harvard Club, made an appropriate response to “The clubs of Harvard,” and brief addresses were made by Messrs. Joshua Pierce, who brought a message from the college from which John Harvard Was graduated; Prof. Simon Newcomb, Mr. Frank W. Hackett and others. Those Present. The members present were Prof. Cleve- land Abbe, Cleveland Abbe, jr., G. A. An- derson, W. H. Baldwin, jr., George 8. Batchellet, Frank H. Bigelow, Charles Chauncey Binney, Alfred H. Brooks, W. G.

Bald- win, jr., C. C. Birney, H. R. Webb and J. B. Henderson, jr., vice presidents; J. Mc- Bride Sterrett, secretary; Pickering Dodge, treasurer. The dinner committee consisted of Messrs. Pickering Dodge, C. C. Binner and Dr. Franklin T. Howe. BIG MEN OF BOWDOIN. ‘Washington Alumni Speak the Praises of Their Alma Mater. The praises of old Bowdoin College were told In story and sung in verse last night at Page’s Hotel. It was the occasion of the annual banquet of the Alumni Association in this city, and the affair was interesting and enjoyable. After the banquet Chief Justice Fuller, president of the association, with some felicitous remarks upon the oc- casion, called upon ex-Assistant Attorney General John B. Cotton to act as toast- master. Taking as his theme the Latin quotation “The present joys of life we d@ubly taste by looking back upon the past,” Mr. Cotton recalled the absence of their former toastmaster, Llewellyn Deane, who had been called to the great unknown, and said he doubted his ability to fill the posi- tion. It was a pleasure to him, and he was certain it would be a satisfaction to the sons of old Bowdoin present, to listen to a repre- sentative from the college of today. He in- troduced Prof. Johnson, a professor from the alma mater, who had come all the way from “down there in Maine” to be present at the banquet. Prof. Johnson’s Address. Professor Johnson said he had been con- nected with the college for nearly a quarter‘| of a century, and had been engaged all that time in preparing his speech for just such an occasion as the present one. The college appreciated the invitation to have a rep- resentative present. When he came to Wash- ington he wanted to see his Maine friends, and. drifted to the Capitol, where he suc- ceeded in interviewing a doorkeeper, who informed him that the business before the House at that time was some member ham- mering the deuce out of the Speaker. He knew who the Speaker was,and was anxious to get a glimpse of the man who was knock- ing the deuce out of him. (Applause.) He went up in the gallery and found just the reverse of things. The Maine man was hammering the other fellow. The coliege, he said, was just entering upon its second century of work. Its past was a memory—a i The boys were not wealthy and 50 per cent of all those who entered the college applied for ald to assist them in getting an educa- lion. And the college never refused to lend a. ready hand to help those in need. The col- lege, he said, is largely to educate those who are unable to get away from Maine, and it was a great deal to the credit of the college to have the education of such a race of men. He did not think the college had the number of students it was entitled to, although the work had increased 6 per cent in ‘en years. And the expenses of the college had like- wise increased. It was equipped through large donations with a superior scientific de- partment and a fine art building, but the donors had not contributed for tfe care of these departments and their support caused a heavy expense to the college. The library needed aid, and a new lecture hall was sorely needed. Every department of the college, he said, had increased in efficiency, and he paid a glowing tribute to the val- uable services of the board of trustees, who labored so faithfully and so well with no other consideration than that which comes from a consciousness of well doing. The loss of Prof. Young, who had given the best years of his life for Bowdoin, was a great one, To him and his policy, more than to any one else, the college was responsible for its steady advancement. He spoke of the financial condition of the college, which was not just what it should be, and in this con- rection referred to the litigations over large bequests the college was interested in, and eld out promise of success, although it would be from three to five years before the college received one cent, even if the suits terminzted satisfactorily. In the medical department of the college 120 students were registered, a larger attendance than ever before. Concluding, he said: “The college was founded by devotion, gets whatever success {t attains by devotion, and deserves the devotion of all those who know what it 1s doiug.” Some Great Men of Bowdoin. Mr. John H. Gocdnough was the next speaker, and he referred to the great men Bowdcin had turned out. In a speech by that great statesman, the late James G. Blaine, he had referred to the college, and challenged the college records of the world to produce six greater names than those of W. P. Fessenden, Franklin Pierce, Nathan- fel Hawthorne, Henry W. Longfellow, Sar- gent 8. Prentiss end John P. Hale, who were ail graduates of Bowdoin, and grad- uuted within four years of each other. He related the incident of how Senator Haie called down Henry Clay during a discussion of the fugitive slave law in the United States Senate, the first time the Kentucky siatesman had ever been worsted in de- bate. Mr. Woodbury Pulsifer and S. D. Fessenden, recent graduates of Bowdoin, followed in short speeches. Senator Frye’s Speech. Then came Senator Frye, witty and elo- qvent, as usual. He was glad to be pres- ert. This getting together and being boys once more, he said, was delicious. And what relief it was to run away from long- drawn-out essays on the Monroe doctrine; to forget fer a little while the terrible atrocities In Turkey, and the condition of the rebels in Cuba seeking liberty from the most cruel and despotic people on the face of the earth. How glorious it was to be with the boys again, and stop listening to the dreadful condition of the country, to forget all about the remonetization of sil- ver at 16 to 1, and to get away from reither flesh, nor fish, nor fowl, and not even good red herring. To leave behind the republicans, the democrats and popa- lists end Tilman. It was delightful to be a college boy again. But what changes time had wrought. There at the head of the table sat the highest officer of the grandest court of the world. Who would recognize in that dignified jurist the boy with light curls, whom nobody respected, but every ene loved? They called him Mel. Fuller in those days. And what a trans- fcrmation had been worked at the other end of the table, where a distinguished general sat, who, if we only went back to the dear 9ld college days, would be recog- nized as that good-natured red-headed boy, Ellis Spear. And at the other end of the table sat_an ex-assistant attorney general of the United States, whom Ben Butler complimented one day by saying, on a great water rights case In which Cotton was arguing, that he was the first law of- ficer in the department that he had ever met that knew more about water than he Gid about whisky. It was Johnny Cotton then. And over here that man who had done such a noble work in organizing the best life-saving service in the world. Every cne recognized Little Kim (8. I. Kimball). The Senator referred touchingly to those old comrades who had gone to a higher school, and mentioned the names of William Rice, Fred. Sewell, old Commander Bridges end Lew Deane. The teachers of Bowdoin Coliege had a hard task before them to beat the records of the past 100 years. There was no college in the world that could produce a catalogue that contained the names of such distinguished men. Representative Hilborn Talks. Congressman Hilborn of California was the next called upon, and he made one of his characteristic bright speeches. He said that wher he was a boy in Maine there were two things which he believed could not be excelled in the world. One was Mt. Washington and the other was Bowdoin College. He had changed his mind about Mt. Washington. Since he had looked up- on it after seeirg those great mountains ih California he had suffered a change of heart and Icst his respect for Mt. Wash- ington. Not so with Bowdoin College. That had increased his respect, for he had seen all over this continent the great men she had turned out to do her honor. There was a territory in Maine, he said, thirty miles square which had turned out more notable men than any other given territory in the world. Other Speeches. Mr. S. L Kimball spoke about the life saving service, and interspersed his inter- esting speech with several funny anec- dotes. Prof. Chickering read a set of resolutions upon the Geath of Llewellyn Deane, which were unanimously adopted, and Rev. Dr. Sewell made some interesting remarks in support of the theory that the notable product of Bowdoin in the way of distin- guished men was due to the fact that the students were wholly Maine boys, descend- ed from an unmixed race stock. Capt. H. L. Prince read a eulogy upon the death of Horace Piper, and the banquet closed with the college song,“It is the Bowdoin Creed.” Among those present were Prof. Henry Johnsen, Chief Justice Fuller, John H. Goodnough, Ellis Spear, Frank Sewall, Gen. William P. Frye, Representative S. S. Hil- born, 8. D. Fessenden, Woodbury Pulsifer, Crosby S. Noyes, Charles Chesley, James C. Strout, John B. Cotton, H. L. Prince, S. I. Kimball, J. W. Chickering, F. E. Demet, 8. S. Gardner, B. W. Pond, C. H. Verreil, S. G. Davis and William H. Owen. SONS OF OLD NASSAU, Princeton Graduates Enjoy Their An- naal Dinner. The Washington graduates of Princeton gathered around the festive board last evening, and until after midnight ate, drank, sang and made spesches in honor of their alma mater. There was good fel- lowship ir plenty, and the sons of old Nas- sau enjoyed themselves to the full. The annual dinner of tho Princeton Alumni Association was held at Page's, and the big banquet hall was brilliantiy hung with big orange and black banners, which had been sent over by the Glee Club, with their compliments. At the end of the table, toward the door by which the guests entered the hall, was a big papier mache tiger, which saook his head and yawne. hungrily as he caught sight of the crowd. Over the railing of the balcony where the musicians sat was hung a mammoth tiger skin, with the head directly above the chair of Mr. Joseph K. McCammon, the president of the association. The long ta- ble was elaborately decked out with great clusters of roses, while from end to end ran long streamers of orange and black ribbon. A stringed orchestra in the balcony played the popular airs of the day. and furnished the accompaniments when the crowd sang college songs. Aliogether it was an ex- tremely lively aifair, as Princeton dinners usually are. - Guests -of Honor. The guests of the evening included sev- eral very prominent gentlemen. President F. L. Patton and Prof. Andrew West had come on to represent Princeton. Justice 5 for the Yale alumni of this sy senda, We" acer recen' u enree. of LL. D.; Mr. Walter Hazara of George- town, 8.C., and Mr. James M. Green were fers upon her graduates, excep: that up in one corner there was a place for the list of the things to eat and drink. Prior to the banquet proper there was a business meeting of the association, at which Mr. McCammon and Mr. Henry C. Stewart, jr., were, as a matter of course, re-elected president and secretary for the ensuing year. In fact, the only change in the list of officers was the election of Mr. J. H. Gulick to the executive committee. * Fraternal Greetings. One of the pleasantest features of the evening was the exchange of greetings be- tween Princeton and the Bowdoin Alumni Association, which was dining in another room at Page's. Capt. H. LL. Prince repre- sented Bowdoin, and made a charming ttle speech to the Princeton men, and Mr. Henry E. Davis was selected to speak for the latter to the sons of Bowdoin, which he @id in hie customary easy styic. Later in the evening greetings of the Harvard men, who were dining at the Shoreham, were conveyed by H. R. Webb and W. P. Mon- tague, who entered the room preceded by a waiter bearing two cold bottles. Among the Princeton men who sat down to the banquet were John W. Foster, W. B. Nas- sau, John H. Voorhees, Judge A. B. Hag- rer, Henry B. Munn, Robert F. Thompson, Senator George Gray, Alexander P. Morse, Joseph K. McCammon, John S. Blair, A. B. Kelly, James M. Johnson, Richmond Pear- son, Henry E. Davis, William B. Bryan, W. E, Annin, Dr. E. A. Balloch, Mahloa Pit- ney, Charles W. McPhee, Henry B. Dayid- son, J. Henry Gulick, Henry C. Stewart, ir., Dr. A, L. Stavely, Fred. A. Young, Vic- tor Kauffmann, J. H. Hanna, George T. Dunlop, jr., Wilton J. Lambert, Harris dsicy, Mr. Lanahan, John F. Wilkins, George D. Whitney, Ormsby McCammon, Arthur Cassells and W. T. Davis. Ovation to President Patton. One of the duties which the president of the association performs with much satis- faction to the members is that of toast- master, and so when the proper polnt was reached in the menu Mr. McCammon arose in his place at the head of the table and started with great deftness, as well as celerity, the oratorical ball rolling. With a few brief words of welcome, gracefully expressed, and then a fitting allusion to the pleasure that the members of the associa- Uon felt in having the president of the col- lege with them on this occasion, he called upon President Patton. The latter receiv- ed an ovation as he got up to respond, which was not only a recognition of the success which has attended the adminisira- tion of the affairs of the college, but was a tribute to one of the most delightful after- dinner talxers in this country. Dr. Patton was. 2s usual, entertaining, but he c!so managed to say something about college matters and about some of the plans for the future. He alluded to the current discussion in regard to the col- lege colors, ard spoke of the emphatic ac- tion of alumni associations In various parts of the country in opposition to mak- ing any change. He had someth’ng to say of the sesqui-centennial celebration of the ccllege, which is to be held in Princeton next October, and gave some idea of the disposition which is to be made of the $5,600,600, which, he said, the trustees tkcvght ought to be raised in commemora- tion of the occasion. He humorously alluded to the ideas of bimself and Prof. West, and explained that while Prof. West's project of found- ing a graduate college and the speaker's plan of founding a law school might seem to be sntagonistic, yet they were not, as ro doubt sufficient funds would be forth- coming. He added that already nearly the whole cf the first million had been sub- scribed by members of the board of trus- tees. His reference to the proposed celebra- tion of the founding of the college suggest- ed the names of men, sons of Princeton, who have been and are prominent in the affairs of the nation, past and emt. An enthusiastic round of folicwed his announcement that probably the last time he would ac the association as president of ihe College of New Jersey, as at the coming eclebra- tion it was intended to take formal action changing the name to the University of Princeton. Other Happy Addresses. Justice Bre who was p guest of the association, was in Mr. McCammon as a Yale man. He made a bright and witty response, in which he re- ferred to a good and made some felecitious rem the com- mon ties which connect all college grad- uates. An earnest, as well as a thoughtful a , Was made Ly Senator G ‘are, who, in eloque great work accomp the influence exerted b: their lives to the brani ing. One of the most popular members of the faculty, Prof. Andrew F. West, nt, and he made a delightful little » Which was received with many manifestations of spproval. He had something to y of the eceming centennial, and, as he has charge of the arrangements, his remarks were in the nature of an official communication. Mr. John W. Foster, who is an honorary member of the association, was called upon, and his response was happy and entertain: ing. A vigorous speech was made by Repre- sentative Mahlon Pitney of New Jersey, and Representative Richmond Pearson also re- sponded briefly to a call for a speech. W. 5. Annin managed, in the course of scme remarks, to amuse the company, and at the same time impart sundry bits of ad- vice to those whom he characterized as be- ing at the lower end of the table. In response to a call, Alexander Porter Morse made some appropriate remarks, and the evening festivities were brought to a close by singing college songs. The Princeton Orange and Black. To the Editor of The Evening Stat It was gratifying to all Princeton men to learn from President Patton iast evening that the colors of the university (orange and black) were in no danger of being changed, and it was pleasing to see that the tiger who participated at the banquet declined to alter the hues of his stripes. Naturally, a strong sentiment was express- ed by the Washington alumni a; ast the abandonment of symbols which recall so many hisioric traditions and achievements. The alumni were evidently more interested last evening in the Princeton tiger than they were in the Schomburgk (lion) line. It is interesting to note that among the dec- orations, for which the efficient secretary of the association, Henry C. Stewart, de- serves so much credit, was un orange and y neeton, and the men who devote hes of higher learn- black flag, 6x4, now much faded, which had fioated over successive scientific expeditions conducted by Pri LTo- fessors and students, ing some eighty thousand miles.

And it will, no doubt, be given to the breeze at the approaching sesqui-ceatznnial celebration in October. ALEXANDER PORTER MORSE, SRR Aes A Missionary Meeting. An interesting missionary meeting of the Laura Pitzer Missionary Circle of the Cen- tral Presbyterian Church was held last right in the Sunday school room. The sub- Ject considered was “China,” and the walls of the chapel were tastefully decorated with Chinese flags and curios, and maps and drawings illustrating various phases of Chinese customs and life. On an easel heside the pulpit was a large photograph of Mr. Hugh White, the missionary of the Central Chureh in China, and during the evening an interesting letter from him was read by the president of the circle. The missionary committee of the Christian En- deavor Union assisted in the services, and brought with them the Chinese umbrella of state. Dr. W. H. Dobson of the committee led the meeting, and Miss Mary Folks made a brief address. Mr. Thomas Barbee and others of the missionary circle also made remarks.
