THE TEMl’tlllS’ HOSTS
THE CITY ALREADY GROWDED
Entertaining on a Scale of ‘ Elaborate
Magnificence—Chicago Sends
a Wonderful Train.
.-
BOSTON, Aug. 27.—Knights Templars
and their ladies from every section of the
United States and visitors from every nook
' and corner of New England have been
pouring into the Hub today by the thpu-
sand. One hundred commanderies, in-
pluding over 3,500 Sir Knights, arrived at
the different railroad stations, and before
tomorrow 50 more delegations will be
domiciled within the city’s gates.
The first commandery to put in its ap-
pearance today was Holyrood of Cleve-
land. There were 100 Sir Knights and 80
ladies in the party. The members of this
commandery will make their headquarters
at 867 Boylston street, but most 'of them
will live aboard the ears.
‘ Among the delegations which have come
in today were 15 commanderies from Illi-
nois, including Chicagokommandery, the
grand commandery of Colorado, two from
South Dakota, two from Indian Territory
and Oakland commandery of California.
The city was awake early today and
smilingly ready to greet the host of stran-
gers. Before the sun was fairly started
.. on its daily jour-
ney strains of mu-
sic Were heard in
the streets as resi-
dent commander-
ies moved toward
the depots to meet
and escort early
arrivals. By , 7
o’clock so many
- bands were out
that the air was
full of music, and
Boston business
men proceeded to
. their stores and
offices with mar-
tial tread. One
could not go more than ablock or two
down town without meeting at least one
body of plumed Knights, and the holiday
spirit soon reigned supreme.
The city was almost entirely absorbed
in receiving and welcoming its guests.
.eorner, about every doorway had its

little knot of hosts and guests, and the.
narrow ‘streets Were so crowded as to make
locomotion difficult.
Many Spectators Present.
A great feature of the gathering is the
great number of visitors who 'are attract-
ed simply as spectators. All trains from
New England points are late from one to
two hours, and a glance at the hotel regis-
ters or conversation with any train con-
ductor shows that there is hardly a town,
village or hamlet in. all the six New Eng-
land states that is not represented. The
railroad men have been taken completely
by surprise, but they are making hurried
plans to meet the emergency and say they
expect to bring over 250, 000 people before
the parade starts, besides those from the
suburban towns that make up greater Bos-
ton. '
There have been no meetings Of an offi-
cial nature today except those devoted to
committee work, relating to the housing
of visiting commanderies, for every Sir
Knight has been busy receiving and enter-
taining friends. The excursion steamer
Cygnus, which has been chartered for the
entire Week, made two trips down the
harbor today, carrying 1,200 passengers
each time. She will start daily at 10 a. m.
and 2 p. m., staying out about three hours
each trip.
The headquarters of the grand com-
mandery of Massachusetts and Rhode Is-
land and of the triennial committee have
been open all day to visiting Sir Knights,
and a constant stream of strangers has
been pouring through the doors of the re-
ception halls.
‘ The California Commanderles.
At the, headquarters of the California
commanderies, elaborate preparations are
being made to receive and entertain
guests. California No. 1 of San Francisco
in particular will outdo all its efforts at
former conclaves. Its rooms at the
Parker House are beautifully decorated
with potted palms and flowers of all
kinds. Wednesday the distribution of
souvenirs will be begun and 10,000 bas-
kets of California fruit and 22,000 bottles
bf wine will be given away. Golden Gate
commandery, also of San Francisco, is
holding open house at the Columbian ho-
tel. The Sir Knights have stretched a
huge banner across Washington street,
high above the trolley Wires, proclaiming
their whereabouts, and everybody is in-
vited to pay his respects to the cinna-
mon bear, who has the distinction of be
ing the youngest Knight Templar. in the
World, being‘gnly-six months old.
Oakland. ‘eommandery is entertaining
friends at Hotel Bartel, where the head-
quarters, like those ef the other two com-
manderies, are decorated tastefully.
The Chicago Apollo commandery ar-
rived today, and was escorted , to the
Parker House. These Sir Knights have
the reputation of being the greatest enter-
tainers in the-order, and they‘have come
to the Hub prepared to sustain it. They
arrived here in what was probably ‘the
handsomest train that ever went over a
New England railroad, as it was the iden-
tical train which the Wagner company ex-
hibited at the World’s fair. One of the
features of their headquarters is a huge
illuminated Skull which talks at intervals.
Grand Master Hugh McCurdy and his
staff of 30 assistants are quartered at the
Vendome hotel, Whichenow closely resem-
bles a human beehive. Most Knights,
soon after arrival, go to the Vendome to
pay their respects to Grand Master Mc-
Curdy.

BANNOGKS MAY HUNT.
Their Treaty With the Government Stands
Above lVyoming State Law. '
WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.—It has been
definitely decided by the Indian bureau
that no attention will be paid to the game
laws of Wyoming where they come into
conflict with the treaty of the United States
with the Bannock and Shoshone Indians.
The attorney general, after considering
the matter, has informed the secretary of
the interior and the commissioner of In-
dian afiairs that the right of the Indians
to hunt on unoccupied lands in his opin-
ion are unquestionable, and that be con-
siders that the state of Wyoming has no
power to limit or abridge this right.
No definite steps to enforce this de-
ter’mination have been decided upon fur-
ther than that the instructions to the Unit-
ed States district attorneys to secure the
release of Indians now in custody on writs
of habeas corpus probably will be supple-
in case any arrest is made in the future.
The bureau will discourage hunting by
the Indians as far as possible, and at pres-
ent no passes will be issued permitting
the braves to leave the reservation. It is
probable that a small number of soldiers
Will be kept in the Jackson’s Hole country
during the remainder of the hunting sea.-
son, and if it should be deemed advisable
at any time to permit the Indians to leave
the reservation to hunt, the whites prob-
ably will not be permitted to molest them.
It is hoped, however, that the work on
the irrigation ditch, soon to be contracted
for, Will furnish occupation and money
for the Indians and make hunting un-
necessary for their maintenance durin
the Winter. --
British Navy Estimates.
LONDON, Aug. 27.—The navy estimates,
which were prepared by the late Liberal
government‘and adopted by the present
ministry, have just been issued. The
number of men provided for is 88,850. Be-
side the expenditures under the provisions
of the naval defense act it is proposed to
lay out £5,393,642 on the construction of
ships and £730,000 on armaments.

BRIGB’S GREAT AMBITION.
it Is Said That Even thé Presidency Is
Not Beyond the Hope of the Senator
From Ohio—His Pr ions Po?
sition Misunde cod.
"— f
WAsanros, Aug. 27.+It is believed
that Senator Brice Will a' pear in a new
role in the senate this win, er. He has al-
ways been classified with the anti-Cleve-
land set. N ow, it is said, he Will be recog-
nized as the senate champion of the ad-
ministration. The tariff question out of
the way, there app'ears no. special differ-
ence of view between him {and the presi-
dent. It is said that it wasa popular false
impression, rather than any feeling on the
part of the Ohio senator, Which heretofore
kept him apart from the administration.
At the Chicago convention Brice was op.
posed to Cleveland’s nomination, but it
is said by his friends that he has never
been antagonistic to the administration
since. It is pointed out that during the
extra session of the Fifty-third congress
he worked with skill and energy for the
repeal of the silver purchasing law. He
was Working for the same-gthing that Mr.
Cleveland was, and, it is said, made sev-
eral tentative moves to get into the confi-
dence of the administratipn. For some
reason Mr. Cleveland did not seem to ap-
preciate the value of the Ohio senator be-
ing called into council, and Mr. Brice con-
tinued to work on his ow‘ independent
lines, still being publicly classified as an
antladministration Democrat. It is
claimed for him that as a free lance he
did valuable service for the administration
cause, which was not recognized. He
stood out very firmly against any compro-
mise, and much credit isolaimed for him
in the overthrbw of the famous Faulkner
compromise. - 5
Was Brice “Misciassiaed?”
_ When the tariff fight came on, he was
promptly classified with German, Smith
and the rest of the antiadministration
senators. especially in What was termed
the sugar combination. It is insisted by
his friends that he was never in this com-
bination, and that duringi that fight, as
during the silver contestfhe was a free
lance. It is insisted tha,’ his classifica-
tion as an antiadministrati' 11 man has not

u.
been warranted, and that

tircly Mr. Clcvdand’s fault that their re-
lations have not been more intimate. It
is said that Mr. Brice has not tried to
, force himself upon Mr. Cleveland, but
that his feelings have been friendly, and
his ideas on public questions have not
generally been antagonistic.
It is believed that Brice’s victory in the
Ohio convention Will result in the estab<
lishment of intimate relations between
him and the president.
regarded by the administration followers
as of the greatest importance to the gold
money cause, and it is the more appreci-
ated from being unexpected. The victory
was won by Brice in the name of the ad-
ministration. This is expected to forever
put an end to ' all Mr. Cleveland’s coyness
and to bring the two together. '
In the new congress German will stand
as a “sound money” Democrat, but he is
not on friendly terms with Mr. Cleveland,
and h’s being a “scund money” man does
not necessarily imply that he Will defend
the financial policy of the administration
in all its details. The condition of. the
treasury and the continuance of bond is-
sues may be criticised or at least not de-
feifded by him, and under no circum-
stances will he be looked upon as the
spokesman of the administration.
Mr. Brice, it is believed, will occupy a
different attitude. Even where he has
differed With Mr. Clefeland he has not
affiliated With German or Bill or any
other of the anti-Cleveland men. Now it
is thought ,he has allied himself complete
1y with the administration and Will be
not only a “sound money” man, as he has
always been, but an “administration
sound money man, ”which implies a great
deal more. It is believed that he will ap-
pear as a champion to defend the admin-
istration policy, bond issue and all be-
sides, and that he will work in harmony
with Cleveland not only in congress, but
in regard to the Democratic presidential
nomination. Mr. Brice himself is credited
with extraordinary ambition.
There are very many persons who hint
that Brice’s past course in politics has
been With the one object in view of get-
ting the presidential nomination “some
day,” and that his future conciliatory
policy toward Mr; Cleveland will be in-
tended to secure the president’s active co-
operation, or at least his pagsive indorse-
ment. '
