W. E. Chamberiain, general manager of the eastern division of the New Haven road, also was admitted into the execu- tive chamber. The Selectmen were with the Governor an hour and a half. In the | meantime a number of the labor leaders, | who_had been holding conferences with | the State Board of Arbitration and at the labor quarters, arrived and were taken into the Council chamber. For an hour the Governor had alternate interviews | between employver and employe. The Gov- | | ernor sald to-night: The situation looks very much more en- couraging than last night. The railroads have 2l agreed to take back as many men as pos- sible without discrimination. As far as the | steamship lines are concerned I understand | that the men have returned, or practically all | of them. The railroad companies will not con- sent to discharge men whom they have hired in place of the strikers. but they are well dis- posed to the men and are anxious to take back or many as possible. The question of the load- ing and unloading of teams, while it came up incidentally to-day, was not very much dis- cussed. It will be taken up next week. The Governor further sald that Presi- dent Tuttle and the Boston and Albany fals had used every effort to get the en back. At East Boston, where ninety the Boston and Maine men went out, had been |ak1'r% back. At the same ce, where 120 of the Boston and Albany men went out, 108 had been given places | by the d company.

WASHINGTON, March 14.—The charges against Embassador Powell Clayton sub- mitted to the State Department were for- warded to him in order that he may make reply if he cares to do so, It appears that the fight upon the Em- bassador has been in progress for several months and he is aware of all that P::u' e Now the question is for the first time raised formally as to the pro- priety of an Embassador or Minister en- finan- cial interests in the country to which he is accredited. It is belleved that there is no specfic law upon the subject, and it is suggested that the determining point in this case will lie in the character of Clay- ton's_investments and to the extent to which they might seem to tend to influ- ence his Embassadorial actions. CITY OF MEXICO, March 14.—Embas- sador Clayton is now out of the clli‘ and his reply to the charges against him in connection with the Mealey case cannot | be_had. “Fhe Mexican Herald says the charge | that General Clayton is interested in | Mexican mines is simply puerile and can | only have been introduced to throw doubt | in the eyes of the public who may fail to | see the absolute lack of connection be- tween the fact in question and the act of which Mealey complains. It is not true, the paper continues, the Mexican of- ficlals are interested in these mines with General Clayton. | LAWMAKERS CONSIDER PHILIPPINE LANDS | Senate Comminee;-ku a Change in the Provisicn Relating to Leases. WASHINGTON, March 14.—The Senate Committee on the Philippines spent an hour and a half going over the sections of the Philippine government bill which relate to the disposal of public lands. The only change of importance made in the original draft of the bill reduces the term for leases of the public domain from nine- ‘ty-nine years to five years. This change was made to conform with other provi- sions authorizing the actual final disposi- tion of the lands, The committee passed over the pro- visions of the bill pertaining to timber lands until the sub-committe which is in- vestigating that branch of the question can give a report. The question of the lands was not taken up. It was announced that General Otis would be the next witness before the committee and he would begin his state- ment next Monday. o COTLIS S Funston Soon to Come West.

It is believed that the cars were robbed before leaving Benicla.

Rodenberg of East St. Louls, Ill., to-day submitted to President Roosevelt his resignation as a member of the United States Civil Service Commission, to take | effect April 1. Richard Dana of/ Boston has been mentioned as a probable suc- cessor, but President Roosevelt has not | yet announced his intention. Rodenberg’s relations with the Presi- | dent and the other members of the com- mission have been cordial, and the latter to-day gave out a statement announcing that there always had been harmony denying a report that a resignation had ever been contemplated. Rodenberg called on the President several days ago and informed him of his inten- tion to resign and re-enter politics, and the latter urged him to remain, Roden- | berg formerly represented the Twenty- | first Illinois “District in- Congress.

The Government, Lord Charles added, ought to purchase coal fields at home and in the colonles. All warships useless for ngh(lns purposes or valueless on account of lack of speed ought to be abolished.

The animal was simply scared to death while in Lathrop's barn during the recent savage storm. The shingles on the roof are new and the heavy fall of hail sounded on them like cannonading. The horse, frightened by the unusual ncise, tugged at his bridle, constantly throwing hig head back during the sev- eral hours that the storm lasted. Drops of water worked through the roof and struck on the animal's back and head, | lucreasing its fright. Other horsés in the | barn seemed to be equally %cared, but in i the case of the fine bay the fright left jlim with what resembled paralysis of | the spine, which resulted in its-death. - Cecil Rhodes Grows Weaker., CAPE TOWN, March 14—Cecil Rhodes i1s weaker to-day.

The speaker said he refrained from characterizing the difficulties which had rendered the abandoned visit inopportune, but that they were well known and de- plored b{‘ a - vast anurlla- of the Irish people. Earl Cadogan sald he was quite sure these difficulties were only of a tem- porary character, and that before long his | Majesty would be able to carry out his | wish, which was very near his heart and the realization of which would be pro- ductive of the greatest possible advantage to Ireland.

LONDON, Mareh M.—King Edward's first evening court since his accession was held to-night. The beautiful spring weather of the past few days changed this afternoon to a heavy downpour, which continued throughout the evening and quite spolled the spectacle as far as the Beneral public was concerned. The scene Ot the affair was Buckingham Palace. In spite of the . blinding rain, which turned the roads into quagmires and hid | the entrance of the palace in blurred mist, the constant stream of carriages was watched by a large crowd, which cheered most loyally when their Majesties, in & state coach and escorted by officers of the Life Guards, came along the Mall and passed into the paiace, the guard of honor glving the royal salute and the Grena- dier's Band, stationed in the courtyard, playing the national anthem. Their Majestles were bowing all along the route, but, in common with the oceu- | pants of the other carriages, they could scarcely be recognized through the rain. Once inside the palace the contrast was striking. Nothing so brilliant has been | | seen since the early days of the reign of [ Quen Victoria. The blaze of new electric | | lights, the scent of flowers heaped along | | the corridors, the glitter of ladies’ jewels | and dresses and the court uniforms made | | & memorable and magnificent scene. King | Edward’s private band played in a gal- | | lery of the ballroom, where the court was | held. Their Majesties , stood simply and without a dias at one end of the room and a few paces in front of the royal circle, | Which included the Prince and Princess | | of Wales, while further back were ranged other royal personages. The breast of | King Edward was blazing with orders and ‘stars and he appeared to be in the | | best of health and spirits. { Queen Alexandra wore a golden yellow | dress, embroidered with irises. Rows o | pearls hung from her neck and she wore a | | dainty diamond crown. The Queen stood | throughout the fatiguing ceremony, gra- clously smiling. The Princess of Wales | was attired in white and silver and the | | other Princesses were robed in white. On one side of their Majesties stood a | brilliant group of Embassadors and dip- | lemats and ladies displaying gorgeous | | dresses and jewels; on the other side | stood the members of the royal household. King Edward received the guests accord- | |ing to precedence and afterward moved | | freely among the brilliant company. An | informal supper was served after the re- ception and the court continued until midnight. Among the striking beauties present were Lady Cynthia Graham and Vis- countess Castlereagh. Lady Arthur But- ler, daughter of Gencral Anson Slager of | the United States army, was also notice- ably pretty. With the exception of those | presented, there were few young girls present. Lady Strahcona presented Miss Twining of Canada, The newly decorated dining-room, which is most beautiful, was opened for the first time this evening. A horseshoe table was laden with gold plate and pyramids of flowers and fruit. All the arrangements were highly successful. Following the termination of the King's court, an unusual scene was witnessed early this morning. All the fashionable photographers of London were busy tak- ing pictures, with the aid of electric light, of +ha ladles in their presentation dresses. The “diplomatic circle included h H. Choate, and Mrs. Choate; Henry White, secretary of the American Embassy at London, and Mrs. White; John R. Carter, second sec- retary of the embassy; William C, Eustis, third secretary of the embassy, and Mrs. Eustis; and Commander Richardson Clo- ver, the naval attache. Among the Amer- fcan presentations were Mr. and Mrs. Padelford. Altogether 930 Invitations wers issued, but a large number of those in- vited - did not_attend the court. Mrs. Choate wore a Worth dress of pink satin with a train of black velvet, trimmed with pink roses. Decision Against Indian Case.
