A GREEK AND GERMAN UNION, Marriage of the Duke of Sparta and Princess Sophle. THE AFFAIR A BRILLIANT ONE. Thousands of Loyal Suhjects Line the Streots of Athens and Greet the Happy Couple—Magnifis cent Costu .. A Splendid Wedding Morn. [Comyright 1% by James Gordon Rennett.| Armexs, Oct. 2.—[New York Herald Cable—Spucial to Tur Brr.]—The weather on the wedding morning was gloriously fine. “King's weather” the peoplo called it. The king of Greece 1s proverbially lucky in the matter of auspicious skies for state occas- fons. All doy long there has been a de- licious scent of myrtle throughout the streets of the city, where it has been pro- fusely used in decorations. In fact, Athens has been transferred into a city of myrtle. It is a mass of flags and evergreens, with triumphal arches at all the principal street intersce- tions. A an carly hour the town was filled with people from the surrounding country, and the national costumes of the peasants added much to the picturesqueness of the scene. At B o'clock a salute of five guns was fired and forthwith bugle calia rang out from all points about town through the clear morn- ing air. As if by magic, the greatest anima- tion was at once apparent in the streets, which, duriug the next few hours, developed into enthusiusn of the wildest description that Athens has ever witnessed. Along the route 1o be followed by the bridal procession every inch of vantage ground was taken up, All the stands in the Rue de Scade, Rue d'Ecole, Rue d'Hermis and Place de la Con- cordo were filled with people. The streets themselves were crowded with people in holiday attire, all anxious to get sight of the bride. There was continual cheering. All the windows affording a view of the pro- cession were occupied, and thousands of peoplo viewed the parade from the roofs of houses, The streets were lined with soldiers. The royal party left the palace at 11 0'clock. The bride looked very happy, but appeared to be a trifle norvous. Nevertheless, sho bowed her acknowledgments of the applause of the people, who were all much pleased with her girlish sweetne For weeks there been the keenest de- sire to obtain tickets to witness the wedding ceremouy, and those who, were lucky enough 1o get them came early. There was plenty to aterest them during the long wait. The first Iaay to appear in the diplomatic circle was Mme. Vlakos in a magnificent Greek cos- tume of white, red and goid. Next came Mume. Tranbenberg in a court costume, wich apink and white satin front, surmounted by a head dress, with a pink band ornamented ‘with diamond stars, from which depended a gauzo veil. They were closely followed by Mme. Olanesko in a sky blue dress with gold train; Princess Santzo, in a costume of red velyet and a grand display of diamonds; Mume. Backmetiw, wearing 4 Russian costume of orange and gold; Muie. Ojedt,whose dress was admiravly set off by a white Spanish ‘mantilla about her head; Baroness IKosjeh, 10 o light blue dress trimmed with gold ewm- broltery: Lady Monson, ina pretty pink silk costume, trimmed with gold. Aftera while the ladies of the court ap- peared, headed by Mme. Thocheri, Mme, Sa- pountzakis and Mme. Anargro, wearing a natural Greek court costume. Their en- trance was 1mmediately followed by that of ninety-six ladies Dbelonging to the suite of the empress of Germany, queen of Italy, princess of Wales and Emp- ress Frederick, those of the lavter being all dressed in sombre colors, Count Hurbert Bismarck, in the court dress of a minister, attracted every eye. The bishops and archbishops, in their gorgeous satin and gold raiments, stood in lue behind a table, while the metropolitan of Athens stood in front supported on each side by a priest, one holding two candles, symbolic of Father and Son, and the other three candles, symbolio of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost. On the arrival of the royal party at the cathedral the metropolitans met them at the door. The company entered the church in the following order: The French ambassa- dor, accompanied by the empress of Ger- many; the emperor of Germany, escorting Empress Fredeick; the king of Denmark, accompanied by the queen of Italy: the prince of Wales, nccompanied by the queen of Denmark; Prince Henry, of Prussia, and the princess of Wales; czarewitch and the princes of Saxe Moaingen, Then followed the duke of Sparta and Princess Sophio. The arrangements 1n the body of the ca- thedral wero as follows: The center beneath the dome, which was carpeted with Greek colors, was filled with royaltics, the king and queen of Greece i the center, and next thom the emperor and empress of Germany, ex- Empress Frederick, tho prince and princess of Wales and their lords and ladies-in-wait- g, On the left side of the center stood the diplomatic corps and the admirals of the va- rious fleets, On the right of the center were the generals and high ofticers of the army and distinguished strangers. In the body of the cathiedral on the loft were the mayors and civic digmtaries from all parts of Greece, On the right were the envoys from abroad and all parts of Greece, ‘The emperor of Germany wore the full dress uniform of the White Hus sars and the prince of Wales that of the Guards. Prince Alber tVictor was dressed in the full uniform of the Hussars. The king of Greece and king of Denmark wore the uniform of Groek cavalry generals, The bridal dress was made of white satip, with long trails of orauge blossows, The enormous train of brocaded wilk was held by three maids of honor. Ewpress Frederick wore a gray dress, while all the rest of the royal ladies appeared n white, with their usual ceremonial jewels and decorations. The ceremony commenced at onoe, Empress Frederick leading ber daughter to the table snd the king of Greece his son. The king gave his hand to Empress Fredorick and they both retired. The ceremony was of the most iwpressive character and lasted #0 hour and a quarter. 1t was the usual one prescribed by the ritual of the Greek church, with ono exception. - Instead of using the ceremony with crowns of orange blossoms, &t the special request of the queen of Greece gold crowns surmounted by a cross were used. This was held over tho head of the bride three tmes by Prince Heary, of Prussia, Prince Edward and Prince George, of Walos, and over the head of the bridegroom by the czarewitch sud Princes George and Nicholas of Greece. This ceremony was agaio repeated when the bride and groom had walked around the Aable tbree times, The moment the young couple were united A A 0 B30 St s ot o & magnificent burst of red light poured through the colored windows of the ca- thedral, suffusing the bride and groom and producing a marvelous offoct upon tie brilliant uniforms and beautiful dresses. The ceremony completed, the Princess Sophie kissed three times the king of Greeco, Empress Frederick, the empress of Germany and tho queen of Ttaly. She then kissed once each the prince of Wales, the princess of Wales and the young brincess, The emperor of Germany kissed his mothor heartily three times. The crowns used wero those with which the king and queen of Greece were married. The party returned to the palace in the same order in which they came. In the afternoon the duke of Svarta and Primeess Sophie drove through the city 1n an open barouche amid the greatest en- thusiasm. To-night the whole city was illuminated and the entire population and many visitors paraded the strects, choering and shouting. At a late hour this evening the illumina- tions were spoiled by a violent gale of wind, After the wedding the newly married couple gave a breakfast at their new home.

Loxpoy, Oct. 27.—|New York Herald Cable—Special to Tue Bee.|—Mr. Hunting- ton informed the Herald correspondent to- day that it was his intention and that of the family to have his daughter's marriage solemnized in New Yorik until ten days ago. Prince Hatzfeldt inducea the famly to chiange their planson the ground that the trips across the Atlantic at this season of the year were not calculated to mako life o dream of hsppiness, and it was therefore de- cided to make the marringe semi-private on account of the short time for making ar- rangements and because many friends of the family are absent from London, although only a small circle of relatives and friends have been informed of to-morrow’s event, Miss Huntington has been singularly for- tunate in the matter of presents. These may pot be numerous, but they are magnificent, in fact, few young iadies begin married life so well supplied with those luxurious necessaries that are tho special de light of womankind, namely--diamonds. Her father's chief present to her 18 a necklace containing about _eighty gems, noue of them less than two and most of them over three carats in weight, and all of the finest water.

Princo Hatzseldt's present is a beeutiful ornament, which may be worn in the bair or on the dress. It contams a singlo large and beautiful pearl, reinforced by a perfect forest of small diamonds. There are other pri ents, all of diamonds, and all of them of the most artistic and costly character. After the weddingin the morning the party will take breakfast at the German em- bassy. MAC T DIAMONDS. ————— News From China, [Copyndght 1859 by James Gordon Bennett.| SuANGHATL, O |New York Herald Cable—Special to Tae Bee.]—No effort is being spared, with the active co-operation of Li Hung Chung, the viceroy, to bring about a ratification of the Cnefoo telegraph conventiou regarding foreigu residents in China. The American min- ister is earnestly protesting against such a step, while Sir Washam is abstaining from interfering. The defeat of the pro- posal is hoped for if not expected. The rainfall has destroyed the rich cotton crop in the Yanetsze valley. A widespread famine is imminent and the price of rice is already trebled. BACK FROM EUROPE, A Oronin Suspect Returns to Meet His Accusers, CnioAco, Oct. 27.—Druggist Burlingham, whose departure for Europo followlng the disappearance of Dr. Cronin, elicited con- siderable comment, hus returned, He reached Chicago Wednesday night, and in an inter- view to-day, sayshe came back two months sooner than he iutended, Lis object being to clear himself. He denies that his departure bad any connection with the Cronin case, and says his movements in Europe are open to wvestigation. Maurtin Duane, who 1t was rumored last night had been ested at St. Joseph, Micl was being talked up to-night as an importan suspect 1u the Cronin case. It is understood his description corresponds to that ot the man in whose company Cronin disappeared, Chief Hubbard, in an interview, expressed surprise at the report that uane was in custody. Heintimated that Ofticer Collins had been seut to interview rather than to arrest him. The idea apparently was for Collins to ingratiate limself with the suspect and be- fore making any move endeavor to obtain in- formation which might prove of value, Late to-night news of the arrest was con- firmed, but with the additional information that the suspect hud been released, it baving been shown that bhe was inuocent of any con- nection with tho crime, Klahre Again Beaten, Cmcago, Oct. 27.—Gus Klahre, the tin- smith who soldered the mysterious tia box for Martin Burke, the Cronin suspect, was set upon at alate hour Saturday night and severely beaten by unknown persous. This is the second time bas been assaulted since his gained prominence in conuection with the case, although the first time the young fellows who were arrested for beaung him claimed they did so because of 1sulting lunguage, Kiabro usserts that he was not drunk last night. Klahre name e Turkey Has a Solid Position, BegLiy, Oct. 97.—|Special Cablegram to Tur Bee.|—The National Zeitung declares thut Turkey occupies @ solld position in the European concort and that she enjoys the protection ‘affords by the Herlin treaty. Regurding Ewmperor Willlaw's coming visit to Cogstantivople, the paper says that the omission ¢f such an act of courtesy would admit of the worst interpretation, ANOTHER BIG RAILROAD DEAL Hvents Shaping For a Second Trans- Continental Line, CENTRAL PACIFIC CONCERNED. Facts Which Show That Road to Have Been Forewarned the Recent Union Pa- cific Consolidation. A Second Trans-Cantinental Line. BDsxvER, Oct. 97, —[Special to Trr Bes. |— The recent consolidation of the Union Pa- cific and the Chicago & Northwestorn, giv- ing a through Ane from ocean to ocean in the Vanderbilt interests, kas been discussed in almost every aspect save in regard to the Central Pacific. Movements in progress in eastern Utah and western Colorado for sev- orul months past indicate thav the Central Pacific has been forewarned regarding this new deal, dhd has been providing itself with a friencly connection at Ogden, when 1t should become the interest of the Union Pa- cific to throw 1ts trafic northward toward Portland. Citizens of Omaha have not fully consid- ered the import of these movements, and a brief resume of the railway situation in the territory referred to, and its future bearing on transcontinental trafic, may be of inter- est to the readers of Tie Brr, When the old Denver & Rio Grande West. ern came out of the hands of a receiver und reorganized under the name of the Rio Grande Western, it was announced that it would widen its 'wauge, improve its line und place itself in u first class condition, Kvery- body wondered why this was to bo_done. Extending from Grand Junction, Col, to Ogden, Utah, a distance of 316 miles, it had been run in connection with the Denver & Rio Grande on a throuyh nurrow gauge route from Denver to Sait Lake City and Ogden, It had always remained under the control of General Wilham J, Palmer and Colonel D. C. Dodge, althougnh forced into a receiver's hands at the time Lovejoy, or the successor of the Palmer-Dodze management wrecked the Denver & Rio Grande. These two men were at the front of the company also when it reorzanized, and soon began to make good their promise by beginning actual work, and within a few weeks ' broad gauge trains will be running to Grand Junction. - This action of the Rio Grande Western loft the Denver & Rio Grande apparently one of two alternatives—to break back at Grand Junction, or to aiso broaden its guage from Canon City to Grand Junction. The lat alternative was next to impossible, on count of the difiicuities presiited on Mac- shall Pass, and in the black canon of the Gunnison.' It next turned its attention to its Eagle river branch, which had been ex- tended to Glenwood Springs, and thence for twenty five miles down the river valley to Rifle creck, sixty-five miles from Grand Junction. Another very important fact directed tho attention of the Denver & Rio Grande management in this ud that was the Colorado Mid- which also.reached Glenwood ) paralleled the Denver & Rio Grande tweive miles down the Grande to Newcastlo- The Midland had never been considered a factor in the through business—in fact the Denver & Rio Grande had never paid much attention to_it, except to pool with 1t on Leadville, Glenwood and Aspen businces, common points reached by both compan But the Mialand was broad gauge, and th action of the Rio Grande Western in widen- ing its rails, gave to the rival of the Denver & Rio Grande a sudden and startling importance, ~ The Midland had _only to build from Newcastle to Grand Junction, a distance of seventy-cight miles down the valley of the Grand, and & broad gauge connection would have been formed which would have at once rendered the narrow gauge of the Denver & Rio Grapde valoeless. Fortunately perhaps for both companies, thero were two or three gentlemen who were stockbolders and directors in both the Denver & RRio Grande and Colorado Midland companies, and the result was acompro- mis The nature of this compromise was the or- gavizatiou of the Rio Grande Junction rail- way, which is to be built jointly by the two companies between Rifle creck and Grand Junction, and operated in thewr mutual interest. The contract has already been let, and work will be begun 1 a few days. This sixty-five miles of new road will be completed in~ Feb- ruary, and then over the Colorado Midland and Rio Grande Junction, and Rio Grande Western roads, broad gauge cars will bo running betweeo Denver and Ogden. It will take the Denver & Rio Grande some months longer to complete its change of gauge between Canon City and Rifle Creel, a distance of 281 miles, tho line being al- ready broad gauge from Denver to that point. This new line will give the Central Pacific a friendly connection at Ogden, and from Denver castward oyer the Burlington, Roclk Island and Missouri Pacific to Omaha, Kansas City, Chicago and St. Louis. While it will nave an evident effect on the developent of western Colo- rado, and the growth of Denvor, it will also have a similar effect on Omaha by giving it two broad gauge routes to the Pacific, both competing for travel and trafiic. The recent Union Pacific-Northwestern deal gives color to the rumor which bas long existed that the Central Pacific has all the time been behind the Rio Grande Western, and was_making for itself a connection whicn would be more friendly than the Union Pacifle, It is only uecessary in this conuection to rofer to thoe proposed **Acequia Cut-off," by which it is prepared to shorten the Denve & Rio Grande's line 100 miles, and the Mid- land’s line firty miles, This cut-off wiil 1eave the Rtio Grande seventeen miles south of Denver, parallel the South Park roud through Platte canon and reaching the Midland tracks, again strike tae main Rio Grande line at Buena Vista. Active prepa- rations are makiug to build this cut off, but it is not vot begun. It is aso a jont Rio Grande-Midland enterprise. That it will be constructed at un early date no ono doubts, for all the woyemenis of the ccmpanies named indicate that they are fully alive to the importauce of the new through line now 80 nearly completed. In connection with the rivals of the Union Pacifie, running west from Omaha, it will give to' her fnerchants and citizens two trauscontinental lines to the Pacific coast. A Bitter Crossing Fight. Cnocxstoy, Minn, Oct. 27.—A bitter crossing fight between the Duluth, Crooks- ton & Northern and the Manitoba roads, which has been in progress for two days, was brought to a focus this morning. ‘The Manitoba had engines and heavy trains above and below the proposed cross- ing and evidently was determined not to let the other road across, By daylight, how- ever, the Duiuth men lines laid to within a few feet of the Manitoba tracks, The forces of the lat- ter voad were then ordered by Suverin- tendent James o prevent a crossing being made. James was immediately arrested and carried off, notwithstanding & stout resist- ance. The Manitoba forces then wrecked an engine and flat cars on the proposed crossing, whereupon the wrecking crew was also rested. The Duluth ofticials then, after some cousultation, decided to await the decision on the injuuction case Lo- WOrrow.

Bostoy, Oct. 2{—George Francis Traln, who was adjudged by a New York “court in 1873 to be insane, and is now in jail here, has been refused a hubeas corpus by four mass judges—Devens, Bishop, Aldrich and Thomp- son—on the petition of Lawyer E. A. Snow asking for a hearing on Mr, Train’s mental condition. A hearing is to bo held on an or- der returnable to the probate court October 28, and whatever the outcome of the pro- posed hearing and the deoision on Mr. Crain's mental condition, there is likely to bo a logal est over Mr. Train’s Omaha property, which has been forecloged upon since he was declared insano by the New York courts, It is valued at several millions, and it is clained that the foreclosure was fnformal und illegal at the the time as aguinst &n insane person. —— Plerre’s Builafug Boom, Pierke, S.

SiOUX RESERVATION OPENING. Pottigrew Contends That the Presi- dent's Proclamation is Safficlent ~Payson On the Civil Service Law. ‘Wasnixarox Bu, 513 FOURTEENTH STRER Wasnisarox, D. C,, Oct, Tt is generally believed that the secretary of thoe treasury in his forthcoming report to congress will devoto some conslderable at- tention to the question of immigration. Tho abuses at Castle Garden and the never-ceasing fights and aisagreements among the commissioners of immigration have become intolerable and the turning over of this busioess to the federal authori- ties has become an absolate necessity. While the respective benevolent socicties are doing all the work of guiding and counciling the immigrants the commission pockets tho money. It's claim for salaries alone for the last two months amounts to over $15,000, but not only that, every immigrant must contribute his 50 cents towards this whether ho stays or is sent back. Attention is also paid to the balanco of the money he brings along. All who come bring more or less of forsign coin, and this may be estimated by the average of one ship Joad of several hundred passengers, at £35 por capita. An exchangze broker has the monopoly for exchanging this for United States currency. As it is very easy to per- suade the owner of this money that it is use- less in this country without being exchanged, and as he must be a shrewd man, born in any foreign land, who can tell at a glance how much 1n dollars and cents he ought to receive for pounds, francs or whatever for- eign coins he has brought, witih such oppor. tumties and nobody to watch him it is casy to make an ample fortune inu very short time, eAU Tie Ovana Ben, } THE SI0UX RESERVATION. Senator Pettigrew, of Sioux Falls, S, T arrived to-night. He will go to sce Pres dent Harrison to-morrow morning in regard to the opening of the Sioux reservation and on other subjects pert ing to the intercsts of his constituents, The senator says the reservation must be opened by presidential proclamation, and that by the law of the last congress that is sufliciont and if the reservi- tion is not onened without going again to congress a blunder will be_acknowledwed by the interior department. Senator Pettigrew woes to Boston and Maine from here, LAND REFOR. Representative Payson, of Iilinols, has for many years been regarded as the best authority on matters pertaining to the public domain of anyore in the lower house of congress, He i3 here and says there will be some land reform legislation at the ap- proaching session. He thinks the ent rignt of fettlers should be confined to 160 acres under the homestead Jaw and that actual settlers should have a title at the end of five years, Judgo Payson is very positive that there will be a lot of railroad lands for- feited. When asked what he thought about the proposed national election law ie said “I think something will be done which will insure protection to every citizen of the Umited States by the national arm to speak and vote in the federal elections in the south as ho might lawfully speak and vote in the central states.” Judge Payson is not satisfied with the operations of the civil service iaw and be- Lieves there should be some radical changes. He thinks the railway mail service under tho Arthur administration was the best civil ser- vico 1n the world and that it was a great mis- take to extend the civil service law to_in- clude the railway mail service. He thinks a man employed 'in the railway vostofiices should be brainy, honest and energetic, and that it is almost impossible to secure all of these abilities under the present laws. is too mucn sentiment and too little business in it, and, if carriod on as at present, will amount to nothing less than a civil pension list, he says. BADGERING BUSSEY. To-day's Post publishes u very raw com- munication on General Bussev, assistant secretary of tho interior, which is inclined to further excite feeling against that ofticer in connection with the Tanner incident. The article asks whether it is true that General Bussey was formerly a democrat, and that while in business in “New Orleans ho was hand and glove with the democratic managers there aud made many democratic speechies; whether ho received a cash pay- ment for each speech made dvring the late presidential campaign in behalf of President Harrison, and whether he entered into col- lusion with the civil service commission to secure the certification of Prof. Grimestead, of Iowa, so the latter could secure an appointment. The communication closes with a very sarcastic reference to Bussey's military “record, in_which it Is in- quired whether” Bussey or Noblo bad the rank in the same regiment during the late war. The Post sent a reporter last night to Gen- oral Bussey's residence to_interview him on the communication before it was put in type. The assistant treasurer of the interior indig- nantly retused to talk on the subject. Col- onel W. W. Dudley, of the national repub- lican committee, was also questioned by the reporter in reference to tho charge thav Bus- scy was paid for the specches wale in the last campaign, and he replied that be did not intend to retail the secrels of the national ropublican committee; that it would hardly e proper to say how much, if anything, Gen- ?rinllvyusfiuymvuivud for his speeches last all, MISS TIOLMES MUST GO, At last the attempts to securo the removal of Miss Josie Holmes, of Cincinnati, from a position in the census office havo been suc- cessful, Miss Holmes, it will bo remem- bered, was the confidential clerk of Cashier Harper in the wrecked Fidelity bank which became 30 notorious a year azo, and it was shown that she was cognizant of the frauds perpotrated by Harper befora they becamo nown and that at the direction of Harper sho made certain false entries in the books of the bunk. She was such an eflicient clerk in the census offic that she won a promotion suortly after entering upon her official du- ties, When Secretary Noblo learned of her connection with the Iidelity bank he called upon the United States district attorney at Cincinnati to corroborate the report and Miss Holmes resignation was demunded. THAT'S DIFFERENT, # will be remembered that coliectors for the various democratic state associations in Washington went througn the departments during the campaign of 1356 and openly solicited contributions to political funds. The government printing oflice was 80 osely solicited that women and children ero urged to give as little as 10 cents euch.

MORGAN AND MANDERSON. To-day’s Post has an extonded mention of the call upon Indian Commissioner Morgan in roferenco to Nebraska appointments, which was noted in a BE special, published yesterday morning. . ‘The Post's account is more bellicose than necessn but it is ivteresting. In tho course of its observations it says: ““I'he commissioner was affable, but there was no indication that he intended to ap- point the senator’s consiftuents, As M ex- cuso for tho delay: the commissioner an- uounced that he was not in any hurry to re- moye democrats who were performing their work satisfactorily merely to find places for republioans. This caused Senator Munder- s00 to warm up and be said sarcastically i am in favor of that system if it is a piied all around. No one had any objections 10 Oberiy us commissioner, and "if you are not 2oing to remove any democrats Lum in favor of catling Oberly and putting him in as commissiover. The president had 1o remove Oberly to make a place for you, and I am putting my man on- just the samo footing as yourself when you were a candi- date for Indian commissioner,” Cemmissioner Morgan did not agree with the logic of the seuator. but asked him if ho (Manderson) intended to vote for his (Mo an’s) confirmation when it came before th senate Liis winter, The senator replied that it would depend upon whether or not the commissioner discovered in the meanwhile that it was the republican party that arried the last fail In the subsequent on it was disclosed that Plumb, on the occasion of his lust visit here, had privately notitied the commissioner that he would op pose his confirmation when congress con- vened.

NUMBER 131 SPEED THE PARTING GUESTS, The Pan-Amerlcan Dologates' Secs ond Day in Omaha. THE SMELTING WORKS AND FORT The Liningoer Art Gallory, the Ride te the Blaffs and the Midnight De- parture of the Honorod Guests, 1hree Novolties, esterday morning the Paxton hotel ofos and court wero crowdoed with expoctant eiti zens ready to lavish their hospitality upon the Pan-American visitors, when at 0 o'clock the first of the delogates appeared and wore warmly greeted, The othor distinguished guests deaconded from their rooms at in- tervals and it was not until twenty minutes past 10 o’clock that all had breakfasted and were ready to start for the drive around the el Mayor Broateh and the members of the reception committee bhad been at work and had everything in readiness. Major,\Vheeler mounted a chair in the rotunda and an- nounced that carriages for the delegates and members of the reception committeo were in waiting at the east entrance of the hotel. The vehiclos for the guests, under the direction of Committeeman Stephenson, were brought up one uta timo, und were s00n filled, extra room being provided on the well known pair of Fally-ho coaches. Word vas pussed along the line aud the line of cars riages started, little attontion being paid to order, as the first drive was a short one, the objective point:being the smelting works, Arriving at the plant, the party loft the carriages, und forming into groups, were taken through the rious departments of the great establishment under the direction of Mr. Guy C. Barton, Captain Rustin, M, K. C. Barton and several employos, who ex- plained the methods of operating the wor The first visit was to the ore yards, where the raw material was dumped from the cars like so much ordinary sund, and, in fact, there ie little to distingiish the cride ma= terin least to the untramed eye, from the product of uny comumon sandbank. The party followed a loaa of the raw mas terinl to the sccond floor of the smelting siied and saw 1t mixed with certain propor= tions of coke, slag and common gravel, in- terspersed with —an _occasions upty tomato can, and shoveied mto the great furs nuces. Descending to the first floor, the workmen were found engaged in ' drawimg the products of the first smelting brocess from the fur . The products assumed two forms. In tho meiting, the procious metals were separated from the dross, und were drawn off at the bottom of the furnace and molded into builion—blocks of the mixed metal about two feet in length, and six inches wide and thick. The dross. as it is now termed, pours out of the upper part of the furnace, above the precious stuff in ono stream of firo, ‘T'his is received in cone sha on wheels, and, after cooling, i and dumped oo the river bank. When the kettle is emptied tho bottom part of the cons tents is found to be of a darker and harder quality than the upper part. This i3 cansed by the pressure of copper ore in a consider- able qaantity. ‘The darker part is therefore knocked off and separated from the stug and shipped by the company to ocastern copper mills, The slag, remaining aftor the copper has been removed, is broken up and again passed through the furnace, being used this time, simply, as a part of the alloy ro- quired in smelting the crude ore. ‘The party was then conducted to the refin- ing department where, in mammoth blass furnaces, the heat from which was almost unendurable, the bullion 18 put through two more processes, the first extracting the zino from the silverand the second sepurating the silver from the goid, These two precioms metals are then sub- mitted to a special refining process and are then moulded into gold and silver bricks. “Now, gentlemen, step this way,” said Mr. Barton, after the prop cesses deseribed had been witnessed by the party, ‘‘and Ill show the results of a he visit pted the invitation and vded into asmall room in a corner of the ery in which the silver bricks were like 80 much cordweod.

Mr. Barton didn’t know exactly, but an ex- pert employed at the works informed the curious committeeman that “the bull lot is worth at least 52,000,000, The committeeman didu't buy, Av 12 o'clock tho party leit the smelting works and drove up Farnam o Sixteenth street, thence to Davenport, and then to Hon, G, W. Lininger's urt gallery. The programme called for a fiftoen-minute stop at the art gallery, but the time was ex~ tended to nearly an hour, in compliance with the request of the delegates. Mr. Lininger and mewbgrs of his family welcomed the SR, SR T “Here 18 something really new,” sald Senor Carlos Silva, of Colomb “We have seen enterprise exhibited in overy shape a Utopian could dream of, yot this 18: the first art gallery we have visited, And such a galiery!
