WHITE HOUSE DINNERS.
They Aro Magnificent, Elaborate
and Perfect Functions.
Description of a State Dinner Given
by tiie I'reniilent to the lllp
lomntN It en ill in 1; at
• Washington.
[Special Washington Letter.]
There will be no more diplomatic din
ners at the white house during this sea
sou. The social customs of nations are
amusing and ridiculous to men who do
not believe in any sort of temperance. !
During the next eight or nine months
the president of the United States will
probably be able to maintain friendly
relations with the diplomatic repre
sentatives of foreign nations in this
city without giving them meat and
drink. During each winter season, i
however, it is expected that tiie prcsi- |
dent shall give a series of dinners, I
which are served after dark, where food
of the most costly kind in great abun- j
dance is served and washed down with
gallons of champagne and other wines.
The diplomatic dinners at the white
house have made trouble on more than
one occasion. A familiar instance was
that of the British minister Merry, who
made a great row because some other
lady was taken into the table by
Thomas Jefferson before Mrs. Merry.
During tiie Garfield administration Mrs.
Blaine actually left the president's
board in anger because she had not the
place to which she considered herself !
entitled. The plan adopted of making
the order of precedence among the
diplomats depend simply on length of
service here is an admirable solution of
the problem on the whole.
The various ambassadors and min
isters located in Washington give din
ners to the secretary of state and the
assistant secretary. They also enter
tain our senators and representatives
in a similar manner. The president
gives receptions and dinners to the
members of the supreme court and to
the senators and representatives during
the entire ante-Lenten season.
At the diplomatic dinner at the white |
house the British ambassador is given j
the seat of honor because he is regarded
as the dean of the diplomatic corps, on
account of liis seniority of rank by con
tinuous service at this capital. The
president offers his arm to the wife of
the British ambassador and leads the
way to the dining-room, followed by
the diplomats and the ladi.es of their
families. The president stands beside
his seat in the middle of one side of the
long table, and remains standing, until
ell of the ladies and gentlemen have
found their way to their respective
places. All then take their seats and
the banquet begins.
When the guests arrive at the white
house they are escorted upstairs, the
gentlemen going to the library and the
ladies to one of the larger bedrooms in
order to remove their wraps. Present
ly they go down to the large east room,
where the president and his wife are
found awaiting to receive them.
Promptly at eight o'clock the steward
of the white house opens the door of
the state dining-room and bows to the
president, who thereupon leads the pro
cession to the table.
Before going downstairs to dinner
each one of the gentlemen finds on a
table in the library an envelope ad
dressed to himself, unsealed, with the
American eagle in gold stamped on the
envelope. Within the envelope each
gentleman discovers a card with bev
eled and gilded edges, bearing the name
of the lady whom he is to take into din
ner. On the back of the card is a dia
gram of the table with the seats num
bered. Two numbers are struck out
\

States.)
with a pen, t!Tus indicating to the gen
tleman receiving the card where he and
his partner for the evening are to sit at
the table. Thus it is practically impos
sible for any error to be made in seat
ing the guests at these big banquets.
The last president's reception was in
definitely postponed because of the
sinking of the battle ship Maine, Where
by so many of our sailors lost their lives.
That dreadful catastrophe shocked the
civilzed world, and it caused thrills of
horror in this city. There was such a
spontaneous burst of sentiment that
even society quailed before it, and all
social affairs were brought to a sudden
termination. Thus it happened that the
social rounds were stopped at the white
house; and, now that Lent is here, they
will not be resumed during the pres
ent season.
It is not generally known that, it is
the duty of the president to accept ati
invitation to dine with an ambassador,
but that it is beneath his dignity to dine
with a minister plenipotentiary. Am
bassadors are the incarnation of their
sovereigns. The British ambassador
'represents Queen Victoria, and for that
reason he may personally call upon the
president 011 official business at the
white house. But the minister from
Turkey or from China cannot call thus
ipon the president. On the contrary,
lie ministers must transact all of their
Uplomatie business with our depart
ment of state. The ambassadors out
rank all other diplomats.
In like manner. Ambassador Hay may
nave audience with Queen Victoria, in
stead of depending upon the British for
eign office for consideration. Mr. Hay,
as our ambassador to Great Britain,
represents the president of this repub
lic. When Mr. Bayard was our min
ister, before the ambassadorship was
created, he could not have audience
with the queen; but as soon a* he had
been promoted to be an ambassador he
became a greater personage.
It may be well to remember that all
of our ambassadors to foreign countries
are men of superior ability ami sa
gacity. The same may be said of the
ambassadors who are sent by foreign
countries to this capital. In all emer
gencies an ambassador must represent
th j head of his nation. Therefore it is
necessary that each ambassador should
possess intellectual ability and educa
tional acquirements which are prac
tically equal to those of the sovereign
or president at the head of his govern
ment.
A case in point concerning ministers
occurred recently. The Spanish min
ister to this country, Senor De Lome,
committed a grave breach of courtesy.
He was invited to the department of
state to make an explanation or an
apology. He did not respond, but left
this country without delay, lie could
not have gone to see our president
about the matter, because only an am
bassador has that privilege, while a

(Chinese Jlinister to the United States.)
minister has not. Consequently, with
• out making any explanation or apology
' for his cowardly and treacherous con
duct, he hastily packed his household
effects and miserably sneaked out of
our national capital. While here he
had been honored with the respect of
the administration. With typical Span
ish cunning and cowardice he bowed
low, smiled and demeaned himself aa
one who sought the friendship of this
country and who appreciated the le
niency of our nation. At the same time
he was writing insolent and coarse al
lusions to our president in his oflicia!
communications, as well as to his per
sonal friends in Spain.
But to return to the white house din

for the state dinners are not banquets.
But they talk on all sorts of topics, jusl
as your neighbors will talk informally

home. When they are finally throng!

is the plain and wholesome truth of tli«
matter.
These state dinners are gorgeous af
fairs. The table service of the white
house would do credit to any monarch.
Between the president and his wife, in
the center of the table, is a great big
golden vase, filled with the rarest of
flowers. Candelabra of gold and sil
ver make radiant the brilliantly
gilded and decorated room. There are
scores of wax candles, and there are
hundreds of little bits of electric lights,
half hidden with foliage. The forks,
knives and spoons are pure gold and
pure silver. The china ware is of the
most costly character, and all of it is
hand painted. So you see, when our
president enteretains, these important
personages he does it in royal style.
Now, whether our presidents enjoy
this sort of tiling or not, is a question
which cannot be determined. If any
president does not enjoy such social
functions, it would be inexceeding bad
taste for him to sny so. Afterwards his
guests would feel different, and some
of them might even decline invitations.
Ex-presidents are also reticent. It is
J well.
Whether this sort of procedure is
I rigiit or not, is another question. The
j custom of social and costly entertain
ment is very ancient. Away back in
Biblical times, we read of social inter-
J changes of costly courtesies. It is re-
I corded that the queen of Sheba traveled
[ many miles, bringing tokens of admira
: tion to the court of King Solomon. The
j royal lady was superbly entertained.
In the early days of our republic the
j white house entertainments were very
I simple, but they have increased in bril
| liancy and costliness, as the nation ha*
j increased in population and in wealth.
; Whether these state dinners are right
or wrong, since it seems to be necessary
to keep up the custom, we may at least
i take pride in the fact that our presi
( dent does the grand act with as much
| magnificence as a king or emperor.

CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, MARCH 24, 1898
POWDERLY IS CONFIRMED.
TIIII Srimtr Kntlllro III* Appointment al
C'omiiiiSHioiier of Immigration Air.
Iluiuia Deniea that There Was a Itar-
K»tu Mailt, In 'UU.
Washington, March 17. —T. V. Pow
derly was confirmed by the senate in
executive session yesterday by si vote
of 41! to 'JO. Senator Chandler was the
only republican who cast his vote
against confirmation, w'nile a large
number of democrats voted for him.
The vote was preceded by a sharp de
bate in which the question whether
Mr. I'owderly had made a trade with
the republicans in the last campaign
was discussed. Senators Teller and
Stewart attacked Mr. I'owdorly's rec
ord 011 the financial question and Sen
ator Stewart read a letter from Mr.
I'owderly written during the campaign
of 1592 in which he had declared his ad
herence to the cause of bimetallism,
and denounced those of the labor ele
ment who had aligned themselves on
the republican side as rendering them
selves liable to the charge of being
made the subjects of bribery. Mr.
Stewart contended that I'owderly had
placed himself in the same catogory in
which he had previously sought to
place others, by his course in the cam
paign of 1 v.M$.
Senator llanna made a brief speech
in which he asserted that Mr. Pow
derly's support of the republican
ticket in the late campaign was not
the result of any collusion or bargain.
"Mr. I'owderly,"' lie said, "came to us
without any solicitation on our part.
We did not go after him and we did
not promise him anything."
Furthermore, he said, he was not
originally a supporter of I'owderly for
the position of commissioner of immi
gration, having another candidate for
the office. This fact ought to be suffi
cient evidence, Mr. llaona thought, to
convince the most skeptical that there
had been no bargain that Mr. I'owder
ly should have the office as the result
of his services in the campaign.
Mr. Chandler made another speech in
opposition, reading protests from la
bor organizations, and declaring that
the republican party could not afford
to appoint to so important an office a
man so distasteful to the labor element.
Mr. Fairbanks closed the debate in
Mr. Powderly's behalf, defending his
record in the office and his character
as a man.
A WEAK PROTEST.
Spaniards Make One to Our Government
In Kecaril to the Assembling of War
Ships at Key Went.
Washington, March 17.—The main
development in the Spanish situation
yesterday was in connection with the
representations submitted by the
Spanish government to the state de
partment concerning the assembling
of a large fleet of American warships
at Key West, the war preparations and
the influence which these might have
on the approaching elections in Cuba.
These representations were in line
with the semi-official utterances re
cently accredited to a high official con
versant with the views of the Spanish
cabinet. While these representations
cannot properly lie regarded as a pro
test against the acts of the United
States government, they may be set
down as a remonstrance calculated to
have an effect in European court cir
cles. Not, however, being a technical
protest, the statement has not called
forth any official rejoinder on the part
of the state department, for it is lack
ing in tangible accusations, being rath
er an argumentative presentation of
alleged Spanish grievances.

WITH MILITARY HONORS.
Remains of Gen. Hotterrans are I.aiil in

Los Angeles, Cal., March 17.—The
funeral of ( Jen. W. S. Rosecrans yester
day was one of the most impressive
this city has ever witnessed. Thou
sands assembled to honor the dead war
rior. liusiness was interrupted during
the ceremonies.
The remains were removed from the
city hall, where they had been lying in
state, to the cathedral, where Bishop
Montgomery officiated at the services.
A huge procession of G. A. U. men,
Confederate veterans and militia es
corted the remains from the church tc
tiie cemetery. Following them came
the hearse and directly behind it a
riderless horse was led. The services
at the church were brief. At the con
clusion of the services, one of the in
fantry companies fired a salute of three
volleys over the tomb, taps were
sounded and the warrior was left to his
rest.
FLOODS IN MICHIGAN.

Saginaw, Mich., March 17. —The Sag
inaw river is flooded to a height not
hitherto reached since ISS4. The Shia
wasse, Cass and lesser tributary rivers
are flooded to their utmost capacity.
Travel was suspended yesterday over
the Mackinaw street bridge. The
water has not reached the floor of that
bridge yet. but the protecting piles are
submerged. In some streets the side
walks and pavements are weighted by
iron and the police have closed the
streets to traffic. Between Saginaw
and Hay City is an immense lake anil
several smaller villages are almost en
tirely evacuated. The Michigan Cen
tral has had a number of washouts be
tween Saginaw and Hay City and can
not run trains.
Only the Itest are Wanted.
Washington, March 17. —Considering
the competition offered by the navy
and marine corps in the enlistment of
recruits, the war department feels that
it is doing very well in securing men
for the artillery regiments. The ad
jutant general's report yesterday was
that 230 men had been secured. This
is at the rate of SOU per month and
about as fast as the men can be prop
erly taken care of. The officials want
the best men. The reports indicate
that every section of the country is
contributing to the enlistments aild
those from Dallas, Tex., are particular
I encouraging.
A CHICAGO HORROR.

Chicago. March 17.—1t required just
•J) minutes yesterday for one of tin
most savage fires Chicago lias seen since
the famous cold storage warehouse tire
011 the world's fair grounds in lsns, to
take anywhere from 5 to is lives, maim
3D people and reduce the six-story brick
building 213-231 Wabash avenue to a
pile of blazir.g timber, red hot bricks
and twisted ron.
The number of dead is in doubt and
probably will not be definitely known
until the debris of the building is suf
ficiently cooled to admit of a search
being made for the bodies of those
who are undoubtedly in the ruins.
This will be two days hence at least.
Three men are known to be dead. They
are:
Samuel A C'ark, bookkeep-r for the Olm
stead Scientific Co-
Miles A. Smith, salesman for the Olmstead
Co.
Edward Ilinz, cashier for Sweet, Wallach &
Co.
The missing, of whom nothing could
be learned at a late hour last night and
most of whom are without question
buried in the wreck of the building,
number IS.
The building had two elevator shafts,
one in front and one in the rear, and
reaching from the third story to the
roof was a light shaft which gave the
flames every chance, and it was be
cause of this shaft that the fire spread
with such awful rapidity.
The building was occupied by a num
ber of concerns, some of them employ
ing large numbers of people. It is es
timated that 100 persons were at work
in the building when the fire was dis
covered.
The origin of the fire is in dispute.
By some it is said to have been caused
by an explosion of collodion in the
wall paper ware rooms of Alfred Peats
on the third floor and by others to have
been the result of an explosion among
some chemicals in the photographic
supply house of Sweet, Wallach Co.
011 the sixth floor. Employes of both
concerns deny that there was any ex
plosion in their vicinity.
The sound of the explosion threw the
inmates of the building into a panic,
and on several lloors a wild stampede
began for the stairways and elevators.
To add to the panic the men in charge
of the elevators ran their cars up to
thetopof the building, shouting "Fire"
at every floor. When they reached the
top both elevators took on a load of
frightened women and started for the
bottom. The front elevator was in
charge of Harry Gleason, a boy. and
the rear one was handled by William
St. John, a young man. Both of these
showed much coolness and bravery and
were instrumental in saving many
lives.
The elevator in the front of the
building was in good order, but not
calculated to produce much speed.
Gleason made one trip to the sixth
floor, carried down a load of women,
anil although the smoke was rolling
through the building in dense clouds,
lie started up again. At the fourth
floor he stopped to take on a crowd of
girls from the rooms of the National
Music Co.. being assisted in his work
by Miss Katlierine Carney, the fore
woman. A man attempted to force
his way into the elevator, but Gleason
sho7ed him back into the hall that the
women might have the first chance.
The man never came out and probably
met death in the flames.
After reaching the bottom with his
load of girls Gleason was about to
start up again when the supports of
the elevator machinery at the top of
the shaft caught tire and, seeing that
they would give way before his slow
elevator could make another trip,
Gleason gave it up.
At the rear St. John did equally good
work, but was not able to make more
than one trip, as the fire swept through
that portion of the building before it
attacked the front. In less than ten
minutes after the explosion that
started the fire all escape for the in
mates by the stairs and elevators was
cut off. There remained only the win
dows and the single fire escape, a nar
row iron thing not over 18 inches wide.
This was speedily covered with a string
of people.
Many of those who could not reach
the fire escape made their way to the
front windows and it was out of these
that Clark, Smith and Binz hurled
themselves to death.
Clark was bookkeeper for the Olm
stead Scientific Co. on the seventh floor
and remained to put the books in the
safe. He might have escaped had he
run upon the first alarm. He was first
seen at one of the seventh story win
dows and a few minutes after showed
himself in a window of the sixth floor.
The fire was close upon him, the floors
and walls behind him were crashing
down, and it was certain death to re
main where he was. There was no
possibility of help and he took his only
chance. Three seconds later he was
dead on the pavement below.
Miles A. Smith, a salesman for the
Olmstead Co., also leaped from a win
dow in the sixth floor, lie hesitated
some time before taking the leap. He
was killed, his body being horribly
mangled.
Fruit Crops Kuineii.
San Francisco, March 17.—A heavy
frost occurred in the southern part of
this state Tuesday night and serious
damage was sustained by the fruit in
dustry. Beports from Stockton, Fresno
and Sacramento are to the effect that
the apricot, peach and almond crops
are ruined.

day with her bows stove, having been
in collision at a. 111. off Gibbard light
ship with an unknown steamer. The
steamer sank within three minutes
with all on board.

reached since the new tariff act went
into effect.
A DEFI FROM SPAIN'.
Will Never P«y Indemnity Nor
Permit Intervention.
A Bemi-OfHelal Aanounceiiieiit U Made at
Madrid that Shown I In* T«nipor
of the Doim in the Pres
ent CririiH.
Madrid, March 18.—The following
semi-official note was issued here yes
terday:
"The report of the Spanish commis
sion on the Maine is not yet known,
but tiit- statements of several officers
who have made a close examination of
the scene of the disaster, show that it
was indisputably due to an interna: ac
cident. American assertions to the
contrary are therefore deplored in offi
cial quarters as tending to mislead pub
lic opinion and render the situation
still more difficult from the standpoint
of maintaining' friendly relations be
tween the two countries. It may be
regarded as certain that should the
American technical commission pre
sent a report declaring the disaster to
be due to an external explosion, the
public here will refuse to accept such
a finding, and any demand for an in
demnity based thereon will be indig
nantly repelled by Spain."
Washington, March IS.—The semi
official statement given out at Madrid
advancing the government view that a
demand for indemnity based on Span
ish responsibility for the Maine ex
plosion would be indignantly repelled
by Spain, attracts much interest in
official circles. There has been little
doubt for some time that Spain was
preparing for the contingency of an
adverse report by the American court
>f inquiry and to that end was prepar
ing to offset it by making clear the
government's policy of standing by the
report of the Spanish commission. The
report of the latter body was due in
Madrid on Wednesday, and while its
conclusions are not officially known it
is a foregone conclusion that it will
find that the Maine disaster was an ac
cident. resulting in internal explosion.
This was foreshadowed in the advance
utterances of ( apt. Peral, head of the
Spanish commission, who stated pub
licly several days ago that the theory
of external explosion was untenable.
Along with the semi-official state
ment from Madrid that a demand for
indemnity will be indignantly repelled,
is the further statement from reliable
sources that Spain has made it clear
to the authorities here that interven
tion may lead to war.
The prospects of such intervention
appear to be seriously entertained by
Spain and strong efforts have been
made to avert it bv showing that the
condition of the reeoncentrados did
not warrant the step, and also that it
would threaten to end all prospects of
further pacific negotiations.
A STRATEGIC MEASURE.
licmoviil of ltuttlc.Hlil]H from Florida
Wutorn to Hampton Koad* 1M TIIIIH !>«•-
scrihtMl hy Naval Official*.
Washington, March 18.—The event
of Thursday in official circles was the
issue of an order for the formation of
a new squadron of naval vessels to be
stationed at Hampton ltoads. The
squadron in the beginning will consist
of five ships, ail the bestof their types.
Two of them —the battleships Massa
ehusets and Texas —are withdrawn
from the present North Atlantic fleet
at Key West and Tortugas.
In ordering this movement the navy
department is not animated by any
purpose of yielding to representations
that may have come from the Spanish
minister. On the contrary the forma
tion of the new squadron was brought
about by purely strategic considera
tions, although it appears from na
ture of the force so far under onto
rendezvous at Hampton Roads, .nit
this strategy is of the defensive nature.
The new squadron cannot be called
a '-flying squadron" because the asso
ciation of heavy attleships with fleet
cruisers like Brooklyn, Columbia
and Minneastfns reduces the available
speed of JJprwhole to the speed of the
slowest vessel and the squadron could
not do much "flying - " in the naval
sense.
In place of the cruiser New York the
people of Key West will look upon the
big monitor Puritan, supposedly the
most powerful ship in smooth water in
the world. She will have to assist her
on guard the double-turreted monitor
Miantonomali and the monitor Am
phitrite.
BRUCE IS DEAD.

Washington, March 18.—Blanche K.
Bruce, registrar of the treasury, died
Thursday. He was born a slave in Vir
ginia in 1841, taught school for a time
in Hannibal, Mo., and later became a
student at Oberlin. In 18(S'J he became
a planter in Mississippi, was elected
sheriff of his county, and subsequent
ly superintendent of education. In
1877 he was elected United States sen
ator as a republican, and served until
March :i, 1881. He was a member of
every republican national convention
held since 1808. In IXBI he was ap
pi inted by President Garfield registrar
of the treasury, and later was appoint
ed recorder of deeds of the District of
Columbia.
About six months ago ho was again
appointed registrar of the treasury by
President McKinley. Next after Fred
Douglass, Mr. I truce has long been re
garded as the most conspicuous man of
his race.
