PRELIMINARY CERRMONIES, Moecow, May 27.—At 7 o'clock this morning the inauguration of the magnificent coremonies attendant up- on the coronation of emperor and em- pres: of the Russians was announcad by the ringing of hundrods of bells and by the thunder of artillory. Even a¢ that early hour the streets were thronged with people, visitors from abroad and from other parts of the emplre crowding the residents, and all striving to find elegible places from which to vlew tho procsssion and such part of the ceremony those, partioul- arly tho favored might be able to wit ness. Darlag the entire night thero was unasual activity on the streets, for not only were psople there whose anxl- oty ccocerning the interest in the cor. which were placod the crowns, orb aud scopter, carrylug tho atandard and seals of the empiro, tock their staud upon the steps of the dais. When thelr majes- tles had becn seated the metropolitan loud and distinet voice, ‘'ARE YOU A TRUE BELIEVER?' The erperor, falling on his knees, read Inreply, In a clear volce, the Lord’s prayer and the apostle’s cresd of the Greek charch, The metropol- {tan responding, “May the grace of the Holy Ghost remain with thee,” descondod feom the dais, The fol- lowing customary summons was then three times repeatod by the bistop, “If there be any of you here present knowing amy lmpedimeni for which Alexander, son of Alexander, ehould not be crowned, by the grace of God, empeoror and aatocrat of all Russias, of Moscow, of Ki fle, of Viadimie, of Novogorod, czar of Kazan, of Asira- kahan, ‘of Poland, of Siberls, of Khersson, of Tsurds, of Grousl, of Gossudar, of Pskoff, Grand Dake of Smolonsk, of Lithuania, of Vallznia, of Podolia aud of Finland ; prince of Esthonis, of Livonia, of Ooutland, of Semigelia, of the Samsycdes, of Beiel. ostook, of Corells, of Ingor, of Para, of Viatks, of Bulgaria and of other countries; master and grand dake of the lower countries in Novo- gorod, of Tohernigofl; of Rlazan, of Polotek, of Rostoff, of Jarosloft, of Bisloserek, of Oudorn, of Obdorsk, of onatton kept them awake, but strong{ Kondisk, of Vitelsk, of Matiloff and guards of soldiers patrolled all parts of the city, giving the stroets A VERY MARTIAL APPEARANCE, Great bodies of soldlers shortly before 8ix were statloned along the route of the procession four miles in length and occupled streets on elther side, keeping the people on tho walks. All unreserved space In the streets was speedily filled by eager sightseers, of all the countries of the north; Mas- ter Absolate of Iverak, of Kastalnlak, of Kabardinek and of the territory of Armenia; sovereign of the mountain, prince of Toherlask, master of Tark eatan, halr presumptive of Norway avd duke of Shleawlg-Holeteln, of Stoxmane, of Dithmarz and of Olden- burg, let him come forward now, lo the name of the Holy Trinity and while windows, doorways and house- tops were let out at fabulous prices to visltors. Those dignitaries of the realm who were to take part in the actual ceremony assembled according to prearranged programme at the oathedral of the Holy Assumption, within the walls of Kremiin, These functionaries entered the magniticent bullding at 7:30 a. m. At about 8 there followed 1u order, the princes of forelgn governmonts, the nobility of Rauasia and other states of Europe and special and regular ambassabors of foreign countries reslding in Russia, THE UTMOST CARB WAS EXERCISED to prevent the admission of any un- authoriz:d or improper person except as he appeared at the entrance, being made to exhibis & carefully preparsd ticket, which was subjected to the closess scrutiny. This form was ob- served at the gate of the Kremlln ana doors of the cathedral, At the re- quest of the ambassador from Ger- many eighty membere, comprising the diplomatic corps sesembled at his maneion, were conveyed thence to the Kremlin fu superbly equipped coaches, richly gllded as to their har- nesa and conts of arms. The remsin- der of she diplomatic body, conslsting of attaches of varlous legations, wero assiguod posirions in tho tribune, just outside the cathedral proper, but in. slde the enclosure of the Kremlin, When the white walls of that wou- drous place cloned on allof the crowd that couid be admitted, a chorus of boys chanted the Ts Doum, and amldst profonnd silence outalde the charch, as well as in it, the clergy, accompanied by acolytes bearlng a cross and ewer of holy water, pro- coeded TO RECEIVE THE CZAROVITCH, This ecion of royalty, who waa in the midat of a brililant cortege, took # place at therighthand of the throne. ‘When the imperial processlon started 1t was made known to those inslde the cathedral by renewed ringing of bells, by sonorous muslc from scores of bands, and by shouta of those cutside. As the royal party appeared at the doors of the palace, the immenee mul- titude immediately uncovered their headsand barst into loud acclamatlon. Even women were there, and the en- thuslasm was spontaneous and hearty. At the head of the processlon, which now entered the Kremiin, was the maater of coremonies, flanked by her- alds richly clad and mouunted upon pure white horses, It was of im- mense lemgth, aud comprised deputles from the Astatlc states of ihe empire, studentsof universitles, clergy, jadges, nobility, and prefects from every eec- tion ot the emplre. When Iis front ranks reached the door of the palace, it was met by the emperor, wearing the white uoiform of a colonel of the fmperis. guards, and the empross was dressed in the Rasslan nstional cos- kveivet,richly smbrofdered onds and girdled with A MAGNIFICENT BELT OF PRECIOUS STONES The Empress leaned on the arm of her ruyal coneort and placed them- selv beneath a canopy richly wrought in #ilk aud gold borae by 32 generels of high miittary rank, They then took their place near the head cion, belng directly At this moment the entlre body of clergy emerged from the cathedral In order to meet show what the impediment s, or let him remain dumb forever.” After reading selections from the gospel, the metropolitans of Novo- gorod and Kieffe,Jagaln ascended the dais and invested the emporor with the Imperlal mantle of§ ermine, the metropolitan of Moscowssying at the same time, ‘“‘Cover and protect thy people as this robe protectsand covers thee.” The emperorfresponded, ‘I WILL, I WILL, I WILL, God helping.” The metropolitan of Novogorod, crossing his hands on the head of the emperor then invoked the benedlction of Almighty God upon his relgn and delivered to Alexander IIL the crown of Rassia, who placed it upon his own head, and assuming the scepter and orb took his seat npon the throne. He then returned the insigma of his title to the dignitarles appoluted to recolve them, and called the empress who knelt before him. He touched her head lightly with the crown of the emperor and then for- mally crowned her with her own crown, The expreeslon and attltude of the empress as she knelt was one of sywmpathy with her royal husband and touchod deeply the audience. The czar preserved throughout GRAVE AND DECORUS DIGNITY and nobloness cf demeanor which alio provoked the admiration of all, After the emprees hsd been duly invested with the Imperial, mantle, and thelr majesties both seated on their thrones, the arch deacon intoned the imperial titles and sang the Domine Salum fac Imperatorem, which was taken up and thrice repeated by the cholr. Directly after this part of the ceremony was finlshed the bells in all the churches of Moscow rang out in chorus, a salute of 101 guns were fired, and inside the oathedral members of the imperial family tendered their congratulations None but forelgn princes were accommodated with seats, The Rusaian princes and dignitaries stood during tho entire ceromouy, according to the costoms of the Greeks. Tue dignitarics of the realm who wers of Novogerod askod the emperorin a to their majesties. The emperorthen knelt and recited a prayer, atjthe end of which the clergy and all knelt be- fore the emporor, The bishop of Mos- cow sald aloud, in behalf of the na- tion, a fervent prayer for the happ!- neas of their majestles. Shouts of “‘LONG LIVE THE EMPEROR," then rent the cathedral, and were taken up by the thousandsoutslde and carrled from mouth to mouth until that part of the mtltitude who were unable to get Inslde of even the ample acreage of the Kremlin caught up the sound, and waved it in huge volume of human gratulstion to the remotest parts of the clty, when It was spocdily saade knowa to all the world that an- other czar of the Russiza had been crowned, g The cathedral choir then sangthe Te Denm, after whics ths emperor un. glrt his sword, aud, accomuanted by the empress and numer: ¢ proceeded to the gato of (he There tho metecpolltan of ANNOINTED THE EMPIROR'S FCREHEAD, eyellds, lips, ears, broast and hands, at the same tlme exclalintng: *“Be he seal of the Holy Ghc keep thee ever holy.,” The emprens was annolntcd only on the forehead.

The metropolitans of Novogovod and Kicffs presented themselves to be kissed and eprinkied with holy water, escorted by the procession, which pro- sented even a more splend!d eight than that which escorted them to the oathedral, belng now augmented by the gorgeous state carrlages of the im- perial family, Banners waved from all points on the Kremlin; and the whole route of the procession falrly glowed with white draperles and hang- ings. The emperor re-entered the houschold,” followed by 31 guus, and the fourth was, ‘“The clergy end all faithful subjects,” followed by 21 guns, The torelgn princos and diplo- mats present stood during the firet course, and afterwards, in acoordance with anclent custom, withdrew to a separate repast, The weather was fine throughout the day, and everything passed off succeassfully, Silver tokens in mem- ory of the day were distributed in 20 Moscow churches to-night. THE CZAR'S MANIFESTO was issued this evening, and Is a doc- ument of very considerable length. Crowds besleged the printing office to obtaln coples, the perusal of which caused great rejoleing. The czar has addressed the followlng resceipt to Do Giors, minister cf forelgn affairs: *“The groat power and glory acquired by Russia, thanks to divine provi- dence, the extent of her empire and her numerous population leave no room for any idea of farther con. quests. My sollcitade Is exclusively aevoted to the peaceable development of the country and its prosperity to the preservation of frlendly relations with forelgn powers on the basls of oxlating treaties and the maintenance of tho dignity of the empire. Having found In you a constant, zealons and neeful collaborator for promotion of these viewe inthe direction of ourinter- natlonal relations, I confer upon you my order of St. Alexander-Nowski, in diamonds, as a testimonlal of my gratitade,” Bafore their majesties loft the pal- ace the route to the cathedral was aprinkled with holy wator. Heavy ralu fell before their msjosties started but just as they took thetr places under the canopy THE SUN SHONE BRILLIANTLY. In the cathedral it was unotlced when the czar knelt alone to utter the prayer of intercession, his eyes filled with tears aud he sobbed audibly as he read. In making a pro- feealon of faith the czar's volce was grandly resonant. The metropolitan of Novogorod almost broke down in delivering his allocutlion, NOTES.

Finally he requested that the question, as above glven, bo writ- ten, and then diotated the following anawer: “In 1872 Presldent Grant,atthe re- quest of Mr. Dslano, eccretary ot the intorlor, sent me to attempt to make peace with these Indlans, tho only tribe then at war with the United States, The president gave me letters to the divislon and department com- manders, the laiter being Gen.

I succeeded in carrylng out the latter, but never ex- ceoded them, Gen, Orook and my- self were actiug under orders then as now. He is a judicious oflicor, and 1 wizh him abundant success,” A DANGEROUS TRIP, The general gave a sketch of his trip at the time of the treaty and sald, with a halt smile: “I may have been too zealous in cbeylug orders, but it certainly was not a pleasant commission, I never went into battle with as many chances of death againt me as I took when with an alde, an interpreter, snd two aconts I wont Into the lalr of Cochise, the Chirlcahua chlef, in the heart of the Dragoon mountains, My scouts found the trall and finally the hldlug place of the band, and I was told could go In, but only with four or five men with me, I rode the last 125 miles through the most difficult country, scarred with the deepest and most preclpitous canons you ever sa The entrance to Cochise’s den could have been defended by ten men against an army.

Cnicaco, May 26, —The Times spe- clal oays: It l8 announead that an agreement had been entered into be- twoen the Union Paclfic and the Northern Pacifio railway under which the territory west of the Snake river, in Oregon, Washington and North Idaho, should be regarded as belong- lug to the Northern Paclfic, or Vil- lard combination, and all cast of the Snake river should belong to the Ua- ion Paclfie, or Gould combination, The agreement is understood to con- taln farther stipulations In refer- ence to the jolnt occupancy of the territory of Montana, Under the agreement the publlc s given to understand that the extension of the Union Pa- clfic known as the Oregon Short Line, was Lo terminate at Burnt river, and the Baker Oity branch of the Oregon Raliway and Navigation company to terminate at the same place, where a junetion would ba formed. It trans- pires that little or no regard ls being aid to the alleged agreement, as it is sald that the Ocegon Short Line is expending thousands of dollara in the survey and looation of a line bayond the point where it was underztood to have agreed to stop. The Impression Is given out that Villard has been glving the Unlon Paclfic a wild goose chase, and is put- ting his forces tn the field to occupy the territory east of the Snake river, and to take In Boise Clty upon an in- vitatlon from its citlzens, who are anxious to have a competing line. Meny do not belleve the road wili build 650 miles through the desert country and then stop 400 miles short of the Paclfic coastat the very thresh- hold of the sectton that would furnish the very best of local traflic. For this reason they favor an extenslon of the Northern Paclfic, and as a gentleman from the extreme northwest sald to a reporter for The Times: ‘‘Glve western cutlet opportunity to construct a road through the country where it is need- ed. Surveys are now being made by the Union Paclfic road of the Snake river, but will never have a road con- structed upon them, and are belleved to bo made for the purpose of securing an agreemen’ different from the one aid to exlst about the torri- and west of the Snake The people of the country men- tloned are of the bellef that there will yot be a hard struggle between the two combinations for possession of tne lmportant territory In the ex- treme northweet, which will result in the bullding of several important branches of road next year.

Although contrary to precedent, the department acceded to his request and papers were duly prepared in the adjutant general’s ofice. Major Nickerson did not go abroad, but it now transpires that the papers were used In the trlal of the divorce case to establish the high standing aud record of the plaintiff in the sult.
