The German ambassador and family are at Lenox, as are the Spanish minister and family and secretaries. The German am- bassador and Baroness Thtelman have made a short visit lately to Saratoga. Mavroyeni Bey is the last foreigner to join the dipiomatic colony at Lenox. Miss Carolyn Morrow of this city and Lieut. John Lewis Chamberlin will be mar- ried Wednesday at Narragansett Pier. It will be a brilliant military affair. Miss Margaret Prescott, the half sister of the bride, will be the maid of honor. The best man will be Capt. Allen of Governor's Is- land. Miss Morrow's gown will be of white satin, trimmed with rare old lace, which was first wern by her mother. The maid of honor will wear a gray and white taffeta silk. A wedding breakfast will be served after the ceremony at the summer villa of Rev. Mr. Prescott. Lieut. and Mrs. Cham- berlin will depart immediately upon their wedding journey. The engagement cf Miss Sybil Sherman of New York, niece of Senator Wetmore, to Mr. Joha Filis Hoffman has additional in- terest because of the opposition of Miss Sherman’s father to the courtship, the coming of age of the young lady and, final- ly, her defiance of parental opposition and her own announcement that she would marry the man of her choice. The last re- portcd developments in this interesting chapter of modern society are to the effect that Miss Sherman has left her father’s house in consequence of his continued op- position to her marriage with Mr. Hoffman, has taken shelter under the roof of her step-sister-in-law, Mrs. Harold Brown, and has come into possession of an income of $15,000 a year. It is thought at Newport that the marriage of the young couple will be celebrated some time this autumn.

According to the work of the police yes- terday, there seems to have been a revival in the Sunday “speakeasy” trade, for three arrests were made, although in one case the prosecution abandoned the charge. The defendant in this case was a young colored man named William Evans, but the evi- dence gathered by Policeman Brennan showed that he was a benevolent citizen. Several times the officer recelved informa- tion that William had been selling beer on Sundays to the residents of several alleys, and yesterday he found him with a basket well filled with bottled beer. He had a Piece of ice on the bottles, and when he had made the rounds of Jackson Hall alley the officer arrested him. “I was only treating my friends,” was his plea. His friends were interviewed, and they proved to be his friends, for they declared that they had been treated to the beer and had not bought any of it. For this reason the charge was nollie prossed. Yesterday morning Sergt. Bryan and Po- licemen O'Dea, Tracy and Payne raided the premises of a colored man named John Taplett, at the corner of 16th and B streets rertheast. Taplett keeps a grocery store, and because of sworn evidence against him the officers went there with a warrant. A gcod supply of becr was found in the wood- shed, and several white patrons found there were summoned as witnesses. In South Washington at No. 17 O street Sergt. Daley led a raiding party. Annie Walker is the occupant of the house, and the police were admitted without the throw- ing of any lye, such as was done in a re- cent case. Three men in the place were, enjoying some cold beer, and the officers found others who had also made purchases, so they said. Annie went with the officers and was locked up. In both these cases counsel demanded jury trials, and bond in the sum of $1,000 was fixed in each case. —_—>— Arion Singing Society Office: Cfficers have been elected by the Arion Singing Society as follows: August Schmidt, president; William L.

LABOR’S OWN DAY Continued from First Page.) 8th street north of K. Mr. J. D. McKay was originally made marshal of the di- vision, but he found it impossible to serve in that capacity, and Mr. Harry Donaldson, a well-known member of the Brotherhood of Carpenters, No. 190, was selected to perform that duty. Mr. Donaldson is a native of this city, thirty years of age, and is one of the best-known and most popular members of the trade in the District. Marshal Donaldson was mounted on a fine horse, and led his division, being im- mediately followed by Wagner’s Military Band, of twenty pieces, Richard F. Wag- ner, leader. For some reason, unknown to Marshal Donaldson, only the carpenters and brewers appeared in Iine when the procession started, the barbers later join- ing it, but marching in the first divisior ‘The carpenters were represented by fifty men, from the Brotherhood of Carpenters, No. 190, W. E. Burner, marsnal, and a like number from the Amalgamated Society cf Carpenters, Andrew Murray, marshal. Hach man carried a small American flag, and the members of the organizations were attired in neat dark suits, a large American flag being borne in each body. The brewers were represented by two large, finely deccrated delivery wagons, from the Washington brewery, filled with employes, and also several kegs of beer. This representation brought up the rear of the procession. There Was No Delay. Matters were quite ideal, so far as the progress of the parade was concerned. No incident occurred to mar the alignment of the organizations, although the stree were crowded with pedestrians and v- 5 No conflicts with street railway urred as the procession moved in accordance with a line of march that skirt- ed, for the greater part of the way, the tracks. At ith street and Pennsylvania avenu: the crowd was particularly large in num- bers, and to add to the excitement, a fire engine hose carriage dashed along Penn- sylvania avenue at that point just as the parade turned off west from 7th s Yth street the engine and hose carriaz passed through the Bricklayers’ Union, but no appreciable delay resulted. Directly in front of the City Hall the chief marshal and his aids reviewed the parade. The men in line raised their hats as they passed, and the reviewing party acknowledged the courtesy. The elec’ workers rang their bells, the other organi zations dipped their flags, and the Barber Union cried out in chorus, “You're next Although the decorations alorg the line of march were not general, many busine: houses and private residences were gaily bedecked with flags, bunting and signs bearing inscriptions simiiar to the follow- ing: “We recognize organized labor.” At Marshal Hall, Several thousand Knights of Labor, w their wiyes and children, spent the day Marshall Hall.

Milford Spohn was born in Maryland. At the age of fifteen he entered the confeder- ate army, and fought on that side through the war. After the close of the war he ac- companied an expedition to Pike's Peak. On returning to the states he entered the law office of the late C. L. Vallandingham of Ohio.

A detachment of policemen, under command of Lieut. Kelly, attended the funeral. BRYAN ON BOND ISSUES He Denounces the Transactions of the Treas- ury Department. Remarks Made to the Crowd That Greeted the Candidate at Milwaukee. In his speech at Milwaukee Saturday evening Mr. Bryan, the democratic presi- dential candidate, discussed the recent bond issues by the government to replenish the gold reserve. He said: “We have seen that when the govern- ment sold bonds at home that the officials in charge of the treasury saw that peo- ple went to the treasury and drew out of it a part of the gold to pay for the bonds; therefore, the treasury people thought that they would try to sell their bonds abroad to see if they could not avoid the necessity of furnishing the gold that these people were trying to draw out, for that is what can be done under the present iaw. I believe if our people un- derstood what was possible—what is not only possible, but what is the actual fact under the present financial system as practiced by the present adminisiration, that they would rise in 2 unanimous re- volt against that policy. ee Govermment’s Gold for Bonds. “Let me shcw you what has been done. The government decides to issue fifty mill- ion dollars of bonds to buy gold. Now, suppose you want to buy bonds; you go to the Secretary of the Treasury and he says ae has some bonds to sell, and you hand him a thousand dollars of greenbacks or treasury notes. He says: ‘I cannot accept thes you say, ‘Why not, are not these greenbacks and tr ry notes gooc He says: ‘They are good for most things, but those bonds are sold to Bet gold, therefore we must demand goid for the bonds.’ You say to him: ‘All right, Mr. Secre: if you won't give me thes] bonds for these greenbacks and treasury notes, I will just deposit them and demand their redemption in gold.’ The Secretary says: ‘That is all right, that is what we are here for,’ and he hands it out. (uaughter and applause.) Then he hands out a thou- nd doliars in gold, and then you say to him, ‘Do I understand that you have some vonds for sale for which you want gold?’ nd he s: “Yes,” and you hand him the sold, and you say to him, ‘Here, Mr. Secre- your gold, now give me the bonds.” inder “the anybody in n been done ‘ation oi the 3 gone on, and when th rer has is- ed fifty millions of of bonds amount of gold drawn out during the me between the publication of the no- of the bonds was some- m 5 In other nt of the money with- purpose of buying bo ids simply allowed the gold he treasury, and then they th. we governm: to pass out of sold ihe bonds tnat were issved for this y gold they were going to purchase When they issued the next n million an- other la mount of gold was wilh- awn to pa: made the Ro ply enlar for the boads. pefore the time was te agreed to prot treasury. e that time was up, bonds *hich had been sent to Europe and sold at had been brought back from Burope in the New York market for more ; ), and that gold was then tak back to Europe again. (Appiause.) Thi: is financiering, as she is taught in New York. (Cacers and laugh Bid Was Rained. “Now, my friends, we issued the next hundred million, and I want to call your attention to that issue. It was first sug- sested that they were going to issue the bonds at private sale, and a syndicate was formed for the purpose of purchasing thes bonds. It was stated in the papers at th me that thal syndicate would give about r the bouds. Finaliy it was u d sue the bonds at pubiie auction, and the head of the syndicate which started out to buy the bonds at 105 within a few min- of the tme for the opening of the ds handed in another bid for 110 and a tractio, sing the bid they had formerly made by about five mill.ons of doilars on the purchase of a hundred millions of doi- lars of bonds. What does that mean, my friends? I means that these financiers when they thought that they had the gov- ernment at their mercy were going to let it have gold at 105, but when others came in and offered a bid they raised their bid re than five millions of dollars. What does that mean? It means that those peopie who possess guardianship of the treasury—those people who are the seif- appointed custodians of the public credit and national honor, would have bled the taxpayers of this country to the extent of five millions of dollars on a single transac- tion if they had been permitted to do so. (Loud cheering.) But then, that did not excite the indignation of those who were standing in official positions. Not only did it not excite their indignation, but the very man who stood at the head of the syndi- cate to beat the people of the United States out of five millions of dollars, was an hon- ored guest at a banquet, in which the Se retary of the Treasury Was the chief guest. (Loud cheering.) Now, my friends, if we believe in the principles upon which government is founded, if we believe in equality before the law, then I assert that we cannot treat a man who wants to beat the people out of five million dollars with more consideration than we do the man who tries to beat the reople out of their hundred dollars or out of five dollars. (Applause.) The Honor of the Country. “Now, when is this going to end? They tell us that it is necessary to maintain the honor of the country. My friends, I may be in error, but I believe that the honor of this nation can be better maintained by intrust- ing its affairs to the seventy millions of people who constitute our nation than by bargaining crcdit to a handful of million- aires. (Applause.) ‘The republican party does not protest against this kind of administration of the ‘Treasury Department. The democratic par- ty does protest against it, and what is the result? Every man who has been profiting out of the extremities of the government and using the necessities of the government for public plunder has left our party to find a congenial party elsewhere. (Loud cheering.) I say they have left our party to find a congenial party which offers them a continuation of that sort of policy. When will this policy end? The-e is only one way to stop this constant issue of bonds, and that is to return to the priciples of bi- metallism, and allow the government to use the option of redemption of its coin in either gold or silver.” (Loud cheering.) oo HISSED A CLERGYMAN. A Preacher Denounces the Demo- cratic Presidential Candidate. There was almost a riot in the Academy ef Music, New York, yesterday morning, while Rev. Thomas Dixon, jr., was deliver- ing a sermon on “The Political Crisis.” Many persons in the congregation, taking offense at the preacher's red hot denuncia- tion of Bryan and his supporters, rose and left the hall. Many others who sympathiz- ed with the free silver candidate, remained and gave vent to their disapproval of Mr. Dixon’s attack in hisses, catcalls and noisy demonstrations. The lie was passed be- tween the preacher and his hearers, and the outlook became so threatening at one time that it was feared it would be necessary to call for the police. One thing Mr. Dixon said was: fi “The proposition of Mr. Bryan and his followers to pay the bonds of the United States, upon which one hundred cents on the dollar was raised, in coin worth only fifty-five cents is downright rascality.” Several persons shouted “That's false!” “You are wrong!” “Shut up!” and many of those present hissed. For a moment Mr. Dixon hesitated and seemed stunned, but soon recovered himself and exclaimed: “If the government does that it goes into the bunco-steering business. He was again interrupted by loud and prolonged hissing and shouts of “That's not right!” “You don’t know what you are talking about!” One gray-haired man arose and exclaimed, “I won't stand this any longer,” and rushed from the building. He was followed by fully fifty others, who cried “Shame!” as they left the room. Mr. Dixon became nervous ami turned very pale, but was reassured by applause that overcame the hisses, It was evident that the majority of those present held the same views as Mr. Dixon. “What Mr. Bryan and his followers pro- Pose to do,” resumed Mr. Dixon,“‘is to permit me to pay $1,000 that I have borrowed with $500." Again the hissing began and some one shouted “Liar!” Men and women from all parts of the hall arose and left the room, many of whom hissed as they went out. This exodus seemed to clear the Academy of nearly all who opposed Mr. Dixon's re- marks. for there was no more hissing. Mr. Dixon resumed talking again by say- ing that Mr. Bryan and his followers pro- posed to permit the insurance companies to pay widows and orphans in a depreciated currency. Here a man shouted, “I am go- ing to vote for Bryan!” and several persons exclaimed “Good!” “That's right! Who started the free silver movement? The farmers? No; the farmers knew little and cared less about it. I believe that it Gwnare “As age by a combination 1 ers, to force the output their mines an the government. Te he United States government owned all the silver mines, do you suppose there would a silver questio Tow about gold?" shouted a man. believe,” replied Mr. Dixon, “that the government should ¢ondemn and acquire all the gold and silver mines in the coun- y- Then, continuing, Mr. Dixon said: “I be- lieve the only way to save this nation is to elect Mr. McKini If Bryan by any chance should be elected, inside of twenty~ four hours this city and the other com- mercial cities will be in such a slate of panic as this country has never seen be- fore, and beside which Black Friday will be a pleasant holie wp Pryan and his followers don’t deny this. They say we will get over it. We will get over it, but what will happen before we Bet over it? We got over the civil war, but with what misery! If Bryan is ele ed two million more men will be idle, and, added to the one million idle men caused by the present administration, we will then have in this country three million idle men. Will these men star No, they burn will fight for bread, they will y and murder. What will Mr. B: will turn the army and nav men. The starving men will flag. and war will follow. “When the flag is fired on the farmers of the west, the men of the south who are today talking free silver and supporting Bryan will rally round the flag on fire on the and shoot down these three million starving men. The starving and desperate men will pe killed and the nation will be saved! For this nation will survive forever, as I be- lieve we are God’s favored people.” — se Prof. Joly Returns to Weshing: Prof, A.
