the national commission was reinforced by
the arrival of several c{ its members in
response to Saturday’s telegrams, it was
found impossible to get a quorum yester-
day, and after an hour’s work an adjourn-

was occupied by Commissioner De Young,
of California, who will preside till ’l‘hurs‘
day, when Mr. Palmer will return from
Detroit.
the fair grounds which has been sent
abroad and carried away by visitors are
beginning to come back to the fair and to
the commission. These were justified by
the extortion practiced in the restaurants
and other places on opening day, and are
upheld by the developments since that
time. 3
With a view to further examining the
concessions operating on the grounds and
to refute the charges, if found untrue.

ferred all complaints of every nature; the
committee being vested with power
investigate and adjust all claims. The
resolution was referred to the judiciary
committee and its report on the matter
will be sent to all parts of the country.
Festival hall, although unfinished to
some-extent, was used yesterday for the
concert given daily by the exposition or-
chestra of 114 men under the direction of
Theodore Thomas. lusic hall has been
permanently abandoned for the holding of
the free concerts. Only the symphony or—
chestra and recitals will be heard there.
The band concerts were given in Agricul-
tural hall yesterday. The attendance was
poor. .
As a result of the attempt upon the part
of the World’s fair committee to exclude
government Officers from the grounds" ex-
cept on payment of the admission fee, the
arrest of two VVorld’s fair officers was
made yesterday afternoon. Captain W.
L. Deremer. chief of the gate inspectors,
and Gate Keeper H. Shueneman were
taken into custody at the fair grounds by
Deputy Marshal Strahan and brought be—
fore United States Commissioner Hoyne.
Deremer did not attempt a defense, but
asked to have the case adjourned. This
the court agreed to, and the defendants
were placed under $300 bonds each. The
arrests were made under the federal statute
which makes any person interfering with
a. revenue officer in the discharge of his
duty liable to a$500 fine and imprison-
ment in the penitentiary for two years.
Fair warning was given the VVorld’s fair
officials some time ago as to the necessity
. for government officials having freer ac-
cess to the grounds to conduct the busi-
ness of the government, but Collector
Mamer’s request for passes for his men
were ignored.

EULALIE COMING OVER.
The Royal Lady and Her Husband Sail
3 for America.
WASHINGTON, May 16.—A cable message
received by Secretary Gresham from Mr.
Ramon Williams, the .United States con-
sul general at Havana, states that the
Infanta. Eulalie and her husband have
sailed for New York.
From what can be learned in reference
to the courtesies to be paid the infanta on
her arrival in America, it has not been
definitely settled whether the president
will go beyond the bounds of American
custom and meet the infanta at New York
or remain in \Vashington and receive her
at the White House in the same simple
manner in which other distinguished per-
sons have been received.
The infant-a’s decision to continue her
journey to America it is,therefore,assumed
was not influenced by any unusual con-
cessions to Spanish royal etiquette prom-
ised in advance by the United States au-
thorities. The president is said to be
thoroughly in favor of doing all that can
be done to pay proper honor to the infanta
during her visit, but he wants to do it in
the American way.
The royal lady is due in New York on
May 19 and the time intervening will give
plenty of opportunity for the arrangement
of the details of her reception.
SU LLIVAN U NDER ARREST.
The Bic-Champion Attacks a Lawym on
‘ Board a Train.
BIDDEFORD, Me, May l6.—John L. Sil-
livan was arrested at Portland~today for
assault and battery. The assault was carri-
mitted on the Pullman train on which
Sullivan and Lawyer Max L. Lizotte, of
this city, were passengers. Lawyer Lizatte
reached in front of the ex-champion to
shake hands with John Sheehan, a mem-
ber of the Sullivan party, with whom Liv ,
zotte is acquainted. As he did so Sullivan
gave him a kick in the groin, which sent
the lawyer across the car. Lizotte is,a pow
erful man though he has only one arm,
and he rallied and went at Sullivan, clinch-
ing him and turning him over a car seat.
They were separated, but were. hardly
parted before another memberof the Sul—
livan party struck Lizotte in the face, cut
ting his lips and makinghis nose bleed.
Sullivan took advantage of the situation
and choked the lawyer, leaving his finger
marks upon his throat. They were finilly
separated; ’ ' ,
Lawyer Lizotte says he shall have Sulli-
van bound over to the grand jury, which
goes into session this afternoon. He will
be brought here for trial.

IIe Surprises the Sports by Capturing tho-
3 Brooklyn Handicap.
NEW YORK, May iii—Amidst a deep and
oppressive silence, Diablo, the aged son of
fields and Grace Darling. won the rich
Brooklyn handicap at Gravesend yesterday
afternoon in,the presence of 30,000 persons.
Lamplighter, the favorite, who went to
the post carrying a ton of money, was sec-
Ind and Leonawell third. The winner’s
lime was 2:09. .
Diablo was regarded as being in the first
flight in his two and three year old form.
but after his third year his ~- legs became
shaky. Since then he has been regarded
simply as a high class selling plater that
was likely to break down permanently in
any race in which he started. The horse
has raced three times at the recent Eliza.-
beth meeting, winning once out. of three
starts. Racciand and Charade, two horses
that ran in the handicap yesterday, were
the winners of those races, and beat him
easily. His wonderful improvement in
form yesterday was, therefore, all the more
stunning in its eiIeffect.
The Brooklyn handicap run yesterday
was the seventh in the history of the
event and was _ guaranteed to be worth
$25,000. Of this sum the winner gets $18,-
000, the second horse $5,000 and the third
$2,000.

Cleveland. The Star adds:
“A secret which has been whispered
around some time and. about which natu~
rally members of the president’s house-
hold do not care to talk, is now no longer
a secret, as it has been given considerable
publicity. That is, that the members of
the family are looking forward to an in—
teresting event to occur, it is stated, in
July. The expected event explains why
Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland have been some-
what anxious to get into their own country
home for the summer.”

IN THE ASSAY OFEIcE‘I‘rHE’eEoPLE,
”HAD 3L0ADS OF FUN. ‘
An Interesting and Mirth Producing En‘r'
counter of an ‘Iiinocent Looking ‘Jay-
hawker With a. Lot of Exceedingly Smart
Bunk Clerks Who Knew It All.
What a jay he looked! The hayseed
was dropping out of his'pockets, and his
unkempt whiskers Were sporting with
the'wind as he marched into the United
States assay office in Wall street and de-
posited upon a desk a big carpet bag,
which he set. down with a resounding
bang. All the clerks .stood around and
grinned. It. was the old story.
“Mr. Assay Man,” he said, “I have
here a gold brick that I”——— 3 3
_ But hem. interrupted with a roar of
laughter. A young man in a. corner
nearly rolled on the floor. with merri-
ment. A banker’s clerk who. had come
in to inquire about a gold shipment gig-
gledtill he was crimson. . - _
, “Sucker born every minute,” he said.
“Same old yarn. '- You jayhawkers
wouldn’t get taken in so often if you
read the papers. Oh, Lord, what a fool
you must be!" _ '
The old man looked puzzled. “If you
will kindly talk English,” he remarked.
“you and I will be abl'etto understand
each other better. What do you mean
by calling me a fool?” /
“Precisely what I say,” spoke up the
“You’ve been taken in
by the gold brick swindle.”
“Swindle, eh?” 3 3
“Yes, swindle. You met a man from
California, didn’t you, who had a gold
brick tied up in a red handkerchief and
an Indian with him? Man said the brick '
was worth $39,000, and he’d sell it for
$3,000, didn’t he?” _
“He di .” 3 3 3
“Oh, what a larkl” laughed the bank- .
er’s clerk, and every one in the office was
on a broad grin at the mystification of
the jayhawker. “The Californian said
the Indian knew where there were. a lot
more gold bricks and they’ve gone to get
them. And then they sold you a lump
of lead covered with gold paint that is '
worth about $4. 65, and you’ve Come down
here to the United States assay office to
have the lead analyzed and get told what
a. monkey you’ve made of yourself.” And
every one howled with mirth. ,. ~
“Not so fast, young man,” objected
the jayhawker. ,“You were right about
the Californian and the redskin selling
me the gold brick', but there yourinfor-
mation ceased. ’Tain’t no bit of lead they
worked off” on me. I hada chip of it ana-
lyzed. No, sir. I wa’n’t born yesterday,
if I am from the country.” '
“You had it assayed!” burst out the
banker’s clerk, almost exploding with
the intensity of his grin. “You knocked
a. corner ofif the brick, and then they
changed it on you, substituting a piece
of real gold cut from a. $5 goldpiece.
That of courSe was found to be all right,
and they landed you like an - .old guy,
high and dry.” [Laughten] , 3 ., _, _ ,
"No, they didn’t,” protested the jay-
hawker. "I’ve. got the genuine thing.
I’ll bet you $500 it’s a real gold bi'ic .”
And he pulled out the sum of money
named and threw it on the table.
There were cries of “Don’t take the
poor old chump’s money. He’s been done
once,” and, “-’Tain’t fair to bet on a sure
thing.” The jayhawker, however, pro-
tested. ~ .
“I’m rich,” he said. “I’ve got a lot
more mOney‘I‘m going to spend on gold
bricks, and if any one can fool me I want
to know it. I’d like to take a flier on it
anyway.” ‘ ‘
The banker’s clerk hardly liked to
cheat the jayhawker, but all the rest said
that the lesson would be worth $500 to
the old fellow.
“I’ll make the bet without looking at
the bric ,” said the banker’s clerk. “The
terms of it are that you’ve been fooled
and that you’ve bought a lump of lead
or something.’ Money talks. - Here’s’
mine,” and he threw $500 on the table.
There were some moral scruples in the
minds of the crowd about “doing” the
old man up in that way, but the major-
ity view was that he deserved it for be-
ing so fresh.
The money being deposited, the jay-
hawker slowly unpacked his carpet bag
in the presence of a. broad grin. There
were derisive cheers as he took the gold
brick from the many coverings he had
wound around it and handed it to the as-
33%,?» . .
at oflicml accepted it, and a look of
amazement came over his face.
“Gentlemen,” he said, “this brick will
not need any asSaying. It was made in
this building, and it has the government
stamp upon it. It is worth $10,000.”,
The jayhawker reached for the stake
money and transferred it to his pocket.
The grin on the face of the know it all
clerk changed to an expression of [pain
as he turned “to the man nearest to him
and politely requested that he kick him
to the foot of Wall street and off into the
East river.
The only person in the crown. who was
smiling now was the jayhawker. Turn-
ing to the assaycr, who had taken no part
in the proceedings, he said: ,
“I bad business here, but I have trans-
acted it.‘ My business is exclusively
with smart young alecks who know it
all and want to enlighten the old suck-
ers. ’ Good day, gentlemen.” He beamed
open them for a mement and was gone.
Outside the assay office he was joined
by a young man who likely enough
“capped” his game when occasion re.
“Did it work, uncle?” inquired the lat-
ter anxiously. , .
“Work! Did it ever fail? Let’s go up
to one of the Broadway banks, and you.
can start a, crowd guessing and betting
as to whether it’s real gold. Work!”
They sauntered west. The old man
looked; so g’uileless and innocent. that
every second citizen they met had a
mind'to sell-him green goods or pick his
pocket—New York Herald. ‘
