France Warning That She Must Curb
the Chauvlnism of Her People. .
The Kaiser and the Czar.

BERLIN, Sept. ..-——Emperor W'illiam left
,Coblenz for Triertyesterday, accompanied
by his suite and the Prince of N apies. The
empress followed in a later train. The mu-
nicipal authorities of Trier made the most
‘Of the imperial reception. The Whole city
'was decked out in bunting and flowers,

and triumphal arches spanned the road -

Over which the emperor and his party
passed.

'_ After driving through the main streets
and receiving an almost continuous ova-
tion, the emperor proceeded to Enron,
‘where he reviewed the Fifth Army Cavalry
corps.
Coblenz, where there was a grand banquet
at the castle. Among the many guests
Were the archbishop of Cologne, the bishop

pf Trier, all the generals and other officers '

yvho had accompanied the emperor during
the review and a host of local officials. At
night a grand musical tattoo was given in
the castle square. 1

This was the end of the emperor’s public '

duties for the day. Although he had been
busy for 15 hours, he conferred with Gen-
eral von' Kaltenborn, war minister, and
talked some time with the Italian crown
prince benre he sat down to his supper in
private.

A Warning to France.

Tomorrow the emperor will start for
Metz, where preparations have been com-
pleted to make his entry a veritable march
Of triumph. This demonstration has con-
{siderable significance. It is not a mere
conincidence that the German emperor and
the Italian crown prince appear in Metz al—
most exactly on the anniversary of Sedan.
Everything denotes that the chiefs of the
triple alliance mean now to give France
warning that she must curb the chauvin-
ism Of her people.

At no previous maneuvers has such a
crowd of distinguished men, all in terested
fOr the preservation of German unity, been
grouped around the emperor. ' Besides the
crown prince of Italy, the king of Saxony,
Prince Ludwig, Prince Leopold and Prince
Ruprecht of Bavaria and the regent of
Brunswick, there will .be Prince George of
Saxony, the grand dukes of Baden and
Saxe W‘eimar, the princes of Hohenzollern,
the princes of Hohenloh‘e, «Field Marshal
von Blumenthal, General von Haeseler,
Chancellor von Caprivi and General von
Kaltcnborn—Stachan, Prussian minister of
war.

Upon arriving, Emperor William will
proceed first to the military field service,
which will be held in the presence of the
Sixteenth Army corps. The road which has
_ ' been cut from the station to the vast plain

where the service will be held, is spanned
by triumphnl arches. In the middle of the
plain the great imperial tent has been
erected. It is surmounted with an im-
mense crown and has ' at the four corners
goldencagles with wings outspread.
Under Arches and Over Flowers.
After the field service the emperor will
enter the Metz gate leading to the Pariser
strasse and w 1.1 pass under the arches and
over flowers to the Place esplanade, where,
under the shadow of his .’grandfather 8 fig—
ure in bronze, he will watch the t1 oops
‘ march past. All'f the municipal authori'
ties, the usual company of maidens in
white and bands of school children with
flowers will welcome him formally to the
city. At 3:30 o’clock the imperial party
will depart for Urville, the emperor’s new
country house.
‘ Emperor Franz Joseph of Austria-Hun-
gary left Ischl today to attend the maneu-
vers in, Galicia. It was decided early in
the week that he should not leave Ischl un«
til he should be due at the Hungarian ma
neuvers, which will bcgin on Sept. 9. The
press has raiSed such a clamor, however,
about the cxposure of the troops in Galacia
to cholera. and has reproached» the govern—
ment so bitterly for assembling a large
, force from the infected districts that the

. emperor felt he must show his willingness
to brave all the perils to which he subject'
ed his army.

Germany and Italy will be the only pow
ers which will be represented by attaches
at the maneuvers. N 0 other countries were
invited to be represented. The district in
which the operations will be carried out is
sWampy, rife with typhoid fever-and dysen-
tery and is boarded with what are now
known as ”cholera spots.” Directing Sur-
geon Kowalski of the Vienna hospital and
the Vienna board of health warned the
government that military operations in
such a region must tend to spread cholera.

* NEW TE EE AT THE FATE '

' A Very Eloqueht Address by Hon. -

Chauncey ll. Depew.

'BIG CROWD IN ATTENDANCE.

The Empire State Made a Magnificent»

Showing at the \Vorld's Fair—De- '
tails of the Festivities, Past
and to Come.

CHICAGO, Sept. 5. ——New York’s home at- "

the f: iir was a point to which thousands of
visitms from the Empire State directed
their steps as soon as they entered the gates
yesterday. It was New ‘York day, or
rather New York week, as the festivities
Will be extended for nearly that length of
time. Governor Flower, his staff in uni-
form, the state ofiicers and the VVorld’s
fair‘ officials were late in reaching the

building, but they were greeted With great .

applause on entering the banquet hall.

The governor and Hon. Chauncey Depew‘

entered together.- Mr. Depew spoke as fol—

lows:

GOVERNOR FLCWWBR LADIES AND GEN-V
TLEMEN—Two hundred and eighty-five.

years ago yesterday Hendrik Hudson cast
anchor inside of Sandy Hook. Though not
so fortunate as Columbus, he possessed in
equal measure the qualities which won suc-
cess and fame for the discoverer. N o sailor
ever entered upon voyages so venturesome
with such limited resources and meager
equipment. His skill and daring, his cour-
age and faith, carried‘a shallop and scanty
crew where a modern ship could hardly go.
He realized nearly the highest point yet at—
tained beyond the arctic circle. Columbus,
sought to carry his religion to the heathen
and find the gold of the fabled Eldorado,
but Hudson sailed in the interests of the
expanding commerce of the world. It was
the belief of his times that a shorter pas-
sage to India would increase the trade and
wealth Of nations.

The commercial energies of Europe were
devoted to this quest during the fourteenth
and fifteenth centuries. It was reserved
for our period to find this highway through
the Suez ca. 9.1.

Chicago's Debt to 'Eudson.

Hendrik Hudson discovered Chicago.
This city is as much indebted to him as
New York. His (11 eds gave the opportuni.
ty and furnishe 1d the incentives which have
eieated this piesent and potential capital
of the west. The genius of commerce
brought Ilendi i1: Hudson to New York,
and when he sailo- d away she made the
island of Manhattan her home.

It has been the experience of all the ages
that the highest results of expanding civi-
lization were always to he found along the
public highways of the world As new
lines were opened and trade diverted, na-
tional and municipal decay followed. But
the genius of commerce, watching over the
destinies of the city and the state of New
York, has never permitted any diversion of
her trade or any peril to her scepter.
chief city of our state is also the metropolis
of ' the northwestern continent and one of
the three factors of finance and commerce
throughout the earth. Colleges, academies,
high schools and common schools give to
our youth the opportunities which make
the average of educated intelligence in the
state of New York so high and co'nspic‘
uous. 9

The Half Moon, upon which Hendrik
Hudson stood as she entered our harbor,
was a Dutch ship, with an English captain,
and crew of many nationalities. She fitly

typified the hospitable and cosmopolitan -

character of the future metropolis and the
coming Empire State.

The same spirit, continued down the
years, brought the Yankee over to dispos-
sess the Dutchman from political power,
and the Irishman to dethrone the Yankee,
and the German, the Scandinavian, the
Italian, the Frenchman, the Russian, the
Dane and the Spaniard to enjoy the equal
benefit and unequaled opportunities of the
great city and state of New York. This
cosmopolitan town, while it is the first of
American cities, yet has more Irish than
any city in Ireland, more Germans than
any city in Germany save Berlin and
enough Italians to equal the population of
the second class cities of Italy. .

We should fail to properly celebrate the

'day if we did not pay tribute to those im-

migrants from Holland who founded the
state and left upon it the indelible impress
of their spirit and principles. It has been
the misfortune of the early Dutch settlers
that the genius of. Irving ran riot in a hu-
morous history of their habits, occupations
and achievements. The ablest, most cul-
tivated and philosophic minds the country
has ever produced have exercised their best
efforts in developing the character and pur-
pose of the Puritan and the Pilgrim.
‘New York’s Glory.

New York is here today to celebrate 11e1
day, claiming the elements which consti-
tute her glory, but only in that spirit oi
friendly emulation which recognizes the
merits of every one of the sister common-
Wealths. We are here in this building,
with its admirable architecture, artistic
finish and hospitable dimensions; we are
here with our arts, our agriculture, our
manufactures. the products of our mines
and of our forests, the illustrations of our
educational system and of Our general
progress, to explain to the other common-
Wealths and to the world why it is that we
enjoy and retain and will continue to held
the proud position of the Empire State of
the American Union. We are here with
our governor to say to the country and to
the representatives of other nations that
we have done our best for the excellence
and the success of this great exhibition.

It will be the distinguishing feature of
this century that' in its last years and dying
hours there gathered upon the borders of
Lake Michigan such a display of the benef-
icent iesults of peace and good will

among men in promoting the happiness of.

mankind and the welfare of all peoples as
no other age has ever seen.
ample be felt in every department of in-
dustry, in the realm of diplomacy and in
the expansion of liberty during the twen-
tieth century.

Governor Flower responded on behalf of

his state, and then there was another ad-

dress of welcome by Director General Davis,

who told the New Yorkers to make them-
selves at home.' in Chicago and to enjoy the
fair.
O’Connor concluded the formal exercises,

. after which there was a general reception.

’ This evening there was another reception
in the building, which was by invitation
only. There were music and refreshments.
This reception was followed by dancing in
the magnificent ballroom.

Tuesday evening, in the New York state

' building, the Chicago Society of Sons of
New York, of which": De Witt C. Cregier is "
president, will give a reception in behalf of

 
 

New Yorkers.

NEW-YORK, Sept. 5. —The following a... . his faithful friend and former secrete-1111.11.11.11.

patch from Washington, signed “A Gentle-
man of Verona” and published in The
Herald of this morning, has attracted great.
attention in political circles here and
aroused much curiosity as to the identity
of the correspondent:

There is blood on the face of the cabinet
moon.~ You may have noticed that Colonel
Lamont is always in evidence. He is the
president’s alter ego. It makes no difler-
ence whether it is a collector for the port

of New York, an escort for the president’s ’

bride elect a hurried preparation for cabl-
net consultation, 11 new carriage for Baby

V - Ruth, 9. private exchange 'of views with a

significant foreign minister, a spin out the
road to the temporary home of the chief
magistrate, a general jollying of Newspa-
per row, an investment of personal funds,
a pregnant suggestion along the line of
state politics, the erection of a bridge over
which interchangeable courtesies may pass
between opposing factions, a fishing excur-
sion or a surgical operation, Lamont, and
Lamont alone, is the man relied upon.

You have noticed it. .

So have many others, and among those——
chief indeed in that interesting phalanx—-
are Lamont’s coworkers in the president’s
official family. They don’t like it. Gresh-
am is not at ease and never has been since
his extraordinary somersault, .so he pulls
himself within himself and tries to per-
suade the Greshamites that the MacGregor
of the clan is at the head of the table
whether it looks so or not. It isa current
joke, although it is no joke, among his con-
fierce. that Gresham does not believe-in a
third term, and to American readers the
point of the joke is obvious.

'Carlisle \vas at first disposed, in vulgar
phrase, to kick. A long life in Washing-
ton, deserved prominence in‘ afiairs born of
services rendered, warranted him in believ-
ing he was to be. the solid man, the Sam-
son, the very Sandow of the administra-
tion, but he hadn’t been in his ofiicial
chair a week when he noticed that he was
little better than a department clerk—a
chief clerk, to be sure, but a clerk for all
that. Men in high positions, his subordi-
nates, were found to be in direct communi-
cation with the president, or, what was the
same thing, with his friend Lamont.

The secretary raved and fumed and
would have stormed had the mood been on
him, but he swallowed his medicine and
until within a few days sulked in his tent,
angered, disappointed, mortified and cha-
grined. Nev er of a wildly hilarious turn
of mind, the secretary sought the consola-
tion literal seclusion grants and amused
himself with himself, not exactly hiding
with rudeness, but showing very plainly
that something was up.

Herbert seems t6 care for nOthing except
the compliments of his old chums in con-
gress. The feathery-buttony phases of his

' present existence, gold lace, bullion, sa-

lutes and inspections, delight him, but he
really finds more pleasure in a lounge and
chat with his former comrades in the.
house than in all things else if appear-
ances may be believed.
Olney's Alleged Trouble.

Olney is in serious trouble. He knows
very well that for partisan purposes the
house will yield to the pressure of certain

, hostilities' in New York and appoint sundry

committees of investigation which may
bring him face to face with friends, cowork-
ers and possibly clients. Totally dissimilar
to Lamont' 111‘ every line and element of birth
breeding and habit,'he is noticeably polite
and» punctiliously suave in his treatment
of the one man in the cabinet who can be
of service to him in the hour of tribulation
.fi that unfortunate period chances to ar-
rive

Hoke Smith is an oddity—always was,
always will be. Perhaps a good idea may be
had of him if I repeat a little story.

A man from Tennessee was very anxious
about an appointment in Dakota, and
through a friend from Georgia sought to
interest Smith and thus secure his desire.
With his Georgia friend the Tennesseean
called and was received pleasantly enough
until the object of his errand was made
known, whereupon, with an abruptness

' that was positively extraordinary, the sec-

TAFT BROTHERS

rotary rose, intimated that the interview
was ended, told the party to file their
papers and turned upon his heel.

As they left the department the Tonnes--
seean looked to his Georgia friend for an
explanation. “It will be all right,” said
he. “You just wait till I see him alone.
Don’t make any mistake about Hoke
Smith. lIe’ s the best hearted slob living,

9111 he didn’t want to give himself away.”

hen Bissell’s appointment was 311-
nounced, people who knew it all imagined

=that the president intended to have a cabi-

net of- chums, but as weeks rolled into
months they saw that Bissell was not of
the Inner camp, and he, too, found that so

,far as the White House orchestra goes he

was very decidedly cast to play the second
fiddle, while Daniel bowed the first.

This means trouble. It is not even inti-
mated that personal collisions are possible
or that sour looks are the rule. but there
are harder-hits than those given upon the
jugular; there are more significant indices
of feeling than the expanding nostril, the
curling lip or the flushed cheek. .

It may be said without fear of successful
contradiction that while every individual
member of the cabinet regards Lamont as

' his friend, knowing very well, too, that his

advice had much to do with the president’s
definitive makeup of the cabinet, there is

nevertheless an undefined restlessness,

born of a perhaps unrecognized jealousy,a
normal outgrowth from Lamont-’s active
participation in every consultation, every

operation, every transaction, magiste rial.

or personal.
.o , mmont FrOm 1888 to 1892. ’ .
Meanwhile Lamont lies low. The great-
est good fortune he ever encountered was
the defeat of Cleveland in 1888. Had the
Democratic party succeeded, Lamont would
have remained private Secretary—simply
that and nothing more. Circumstances
governed his case. Opportunity enabled

'him to show the stuff that was in him.

Cleveland in _retiracy was looked up to

by Democrats from every section of the

country, of high and low degree, Tammany
Hall alone excepted. The tax-president, how-
ever, had something else to think of than
his political future. His financial present
was to him a matter of great consequence.

Plans, projects, schemes, programmes,

lwere unfolded before the err-presidential
'eye, with money in every one 'of them; and

of the New York papers were quite pre-

antisilver forces waving the plume of presi-

Close lockers on saw that Mr. Gockran
not‘ only enjoyed but furthered thisgenernl

and his friends agreed with him it was
quite time he should do something: or say
something in addition to the oiie- speech
he made in behalf of American lidors' in the
last congress. So he broodedsiiiHe also

Unfortunately he 10rgot.He forgot his
attitude, first, as a Tammany mpn' second,

 

third and chiefly, he forgot that Grover
Cleveland is a man with a memory and Dan
Lamont an individual with asara‘pbook.

The consequences were diref.’ First, Mr.
Wilson of West Virginia was :c‘oarteously
requested to voice the suggestions of the
president on the floor and. to introduce a
measure which it was hoped would satisfy
the demand of the people: second, Colonel

Alleged Indications.

All this would be of 110 Special conse
quence if it did not indicate three impor-
tant suggestions: Fir‘st, that although the
president is willing? so far as Tammany
Hall is concerned,- to accept their indo'rse-
ment, tardy though it was, in good faith,
he is man enough to repudiate the eleventh
hour friendships of men who seek ’him be

lected by the speaker for noticeably promi-

fore it is as evident that Tammany Hall will ,
have no more to do with Cock‘ran as it was

his own benefit. And, third, while there is
apparent amiability of feeling and Obvious
courtesy of bearing and mannei'inth'e New
York delegation, there” is an intensity and
an immensity of indignation, mingled with,
surprise, at Cochran’s toploftical assurance
of supremacy. '

Where will it end? If the eiibinet' is i11-
sensibly jealous; if the senate is stirred to
its deepest depths by this silver debate,
which involves no question of principle;-if
the New York delegatioh' is embarrassed b'
the self seeking and self pushing o- a sélf

sonable to believe that there" is n leaven of
disturbance which, sooner or later, will
make Washington a hotbed of' vOlcanie

discussions of a personal nature, some of.-
which have already disgraced the floor of
the house, and a revival of scenes which in
earlier days characterized frequently the
debates in both lipuses?
