. TFPECIAI. TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.l
Chautauqua, July25. This was a great
day here. It was set apart for the discus
sion of political equality, and the women
came here in thousands from all points of
the compass. Sirs. Zerelda "Wallace, the
mother of General Lew Wallace, and Snsan
B. Anthony, the great champion of woman
suffrage, like Iochinvar, came out of the
west, and Mrs. Anna Shaw came up from
the Xntional Capital. Thousands of lesser
lights came from all over the union, so that
Chautauqua literally swarmed with the fair
sex. The big Amphitheater was beautifully
decorated with banners of the different
political equality clubs in white and yellow,
and star spangled banners fell in folds all
over the building. Everybody wore yellow
ribbon and the speaker's platform was as
yellow as a sunflower.
Indeed, the yellow is intended to repre
sent the "Sunflower State," for Kansas was
the first State to give women municipal
suffrage. The inscriptions in the Amphi
theater wpre significant. Two were as fol
lows: "Women's ballot means enlarged op- j
portunity for doing good" and "Govern
ments derive their just powers from the con
sent of the governed."
Woman's Right- Are Gaining.
The women's movement seems to have
gained great strength, for the enthusiasm
and enercy evinced to-day Mere most signi
cant. Chancellor Vincent made a very
happy address of welcome, in which he said
Chautauqua' platform was alwavs open to
anybody who had any idea or plan to pro
mote the welfare of humanity.
The Women's Club made a sensation to
day wlicu discussinc dress reform in secret
bession by ejecting several over-curious men
who had come in to "view the landscape."
This was the programme in detail: At
8:30 this morning, meeting of the Women's
Club for discussion on dress, by Jlrs. F.
Stuart Tarker, of Chicago; 11 a. St., lecture
on "The Xeu Nation," by Prof. F. X.
Thorpe, of Philadelphia; 2 l"' M., platform
meetinc in interest of political equality,
with addresses by Sirs. Zerelda Wallace,
Iter. Anna Shaw and Miss Susan B.
Anthony: 5 r. M., lecture on "Why Should
l btuciy tuelJibleV" by Prof. W. It. Harper,
of Chicago; 7 l M., twilight concert, by
ltogers' Band; 8 r. at,, illustrated lecture
on "Two Years and a Half With Edison,"
by Dr. Frank M. Deems, of Oraugc, IT. J.,
and formerlv au assistant of Edison.
Mrs. Zerelda Wallace, of Cataract Ind.,
made a very happy and witty address. She
taid every reform had three' phases: First,
it is not" possible: second, the Bible is
against it; and third, everybody is in its
favor. The speaker was of "the opinion that
to-day's beautiful welcome and unusual at
tendance indicated that the Women Suf
fragists were passing through the third
stage. Mrs. Wallace then went on to quote
Scripture in support of woman's equality.
She said that in the account of the creation
"the spirit of God brooded upon the
waters," which showed that the feminine
attributes of the Godhead had as much to
do "in the beginning" as the masculine at
tributes had.
Woman Superior to Man.
Again if the lower orders were first in
creation, woman must be superior to man,
for after man came woman, and she might
add she has been after him ever since.
Canon Farrar says Paul was a widower and
not a bachelor, hence his declamation
against marriage must be taken for what it
is worth. Man was told to go out and earn
his bread by the sweat of his brow, not
woman.
Mrs. Anna Shaw, of Washington, D. C,
made a strong appeal for woman suffrage
and told in conclusion the touching story of
a little boy who was run down by a cab and
lay dying in a hospital. "I want my
mother," he cried, and only the mother
love would quiet and soothe him. What
this country needs is mother-comfort,
mother-care, and mother-relief, and this
will come only when women have the right
to vote.
Mrs. Susan B. Anthony's address was very
interesting. She reviewed the various laws
that had been passed in the several States
for the amelioration of women. She said
23 States gave women the right to vote on
tchool elections, and urged her audience to
exercise this right. She told of municipal
suffrage in Kansas, where women vote, and
taid that the women's ballots had been for
law and order, and against whisky and im
morality. The speaker said that Kansas
would shortly come into the woman suf
frage fold, as Wyoming had done. The
speaker closed by saying that the better day
was coming, and that soon woman suffrage
could cover the face of the earth.
than four systems of dress in full sweep
among the ladies. First, there is the regu
lar style, represented by the old-fashioned
skirt, of which the Delsarte teacher is the
exponent; the second class are the followers
of the divided skirt; the third class con
sists of the Zouave uniform girls, who spend
most of their time in the gymnasium, and
devote five yards of cloth to each limb, and
the fourth class is made up of the extreme
radicals, who wear no skirts and imitate
actresses by wearing tights.
The interest in yesterday's meeting was
so lively that the ladies determined to hold
another session this morning, and probe the
vexed question to the bottom. Men were
to be excluded, and the meeting was to be
-secret. Fully 1,000 of the "faithful"
crowded into the Temple early this morn
ing, when the doors opened, and standing
room could not be had. Mrs. Frank Stuart
Parker, of Chicago, was the speaker of the
day, and she had brought with her the latest
and most improved kind of clothes for exhi-
Dition purposes.
Males In the Ilonse.
The speaker had not proceeded far in her
illustrations when it was discovered that
several of the male fraternity had managed
to slip into a quiet corner unnoticed, and
were not the least interested among those of
the audience. Immediately on the discov
ery the programme was stopped and the
men hurriedly ejected. Then the discussion
proceeded with the most intense interest.
Mrs. Parker is a lady of rare culture and
attainments, andj she proposed to con
vert her audience to the radical
view of the case. She rapidly changed her
outer garments in full view of her audience,
and showed the beauty of the new system,
which goes ahead of the Jennes "Miller
school. She denounced in turn high heels,
narrow shoes, high collars, senseless gloves,
and all kinds of corsetsand garters, and told
the audience that it .was a greater sin to de
form the body than it was to tell a lie.
Dante's "Divine Comedy" was neither
divine nor a comedy, but an infernal trag
edy, and the same could be said of the hor
rible style of dress among women. It is ab
surd to say that a French dressmaker can
improve upon what God has created. The
speaker recommended her hearers to supply
themselves with photographs of Venus Di
Milo and Titians' figure in the picture of
"Sacred, and Profane Lives," and study j
iutui mi iiieir ueauiy was iiierauy leiu
-After Husbands anil Brothers. ,
Then came a long discussion, and it
seemed hard for many ladies to renounce
the garters, particularly the one honored by
Edward the III., ofEngland. One lady
said it was a shame that women disfigured
themselves so much as to compel their
husbands to go to see actresses in order to
behold a beautiful form. It was simply
disgraceful to have brothers and husbands
go to a theater to admire the female
figure. Another lady said that the
reason why so many women are ill-natured
is because they are clothed so badly.
Women were certainly superior to men, "if
the doctrine of "the survival of the fittest"
were true, for a man could not survive in
the garments that most women wear.
Altogether it was a great day at Chau
tauqua. The Knights of the Garter are on
a regular crusade for dress reform, and the
cooking school and woman suffrage are in
the background.

Prof. Thorpe's Final Lecture.
Dr. Francis X. Thorpe gave his last lect
ure on the civil development of the United
States. The elements of nationality are the
people and the land, he said. The ideas on
nationality were less clear in 17'ti than now.
The lecturer discussed the disiutrcgation
elements in American life from 1776 to 1789;
traced the tendencies toward anarchy in the
early years of the Itepublic and the long
contentions in the country between the
radical adherents of local and Federal gov
ernment. The chief factors in government are the
land, the people and their education and
teutiments. The purpose of the lecture
was to (-how the process of that civil de
velopment Xorth and South, East and
West, which has resulted in the nation of
our day.
Dr. W. It. Harper, President of the TJni
v esity of Chicago, and for many years
principal of the Chautauqua College of
.Liberal Arts, has been appointed principal
of the entire Chautauqua system by Bishop
Vincent, wliose relations as Chancellor con
tinue the same as heretofore. Dr. Harper
will gUe his decision as to the acceptance
of this position before he sails for Europe
on Thursday nest. Mr. G. Vincent will be
vice principal, and will continue to serve as
assistant to the Chancellor.
A Banquet to Dr. Harper.
The banquet given at the Hotel Athe
neum last n:ght by the Chautauqua manage
ment, in honor of Dr. Harper on the eve of
his departure for Europe, was attended by a
large number of gentlemen and ladies.
who were eager to testify to their friendship
in this pleasing manner. Mr. Lewis Miller
occupied the head of the tabic, with Dr.
Harper at his right hand and Bishop Vin
cent at the lett. The banquet was given
additional flavor and zest by a selection by
the Apollo Quartette; two'recitations by
Prof. Cumnock; a Recitation by Mrs. Parker,
of Chicago, and singing of familiar airs by
the assembled company. Bishop Vincent
and Dr. H.iqier made "two admirable ad
dresses. Other speeches, bright, entertain
ing and profitable, w ere made by Colonel
Francis Parker, Dr. W. G. Anderson, Mrs.
Emily Huntingdon Miller and Prof. Martin
Dooge, alter which the guests departed for
their homes.
A Bi Dress Reform Sensation.
The serene and scholastic stillness of the
Chautauqua colony was broken to-day by a
genuine sensation'that was not down on the
programme. For some days past propa
gandists of the most radical school of dress
reform have been quietly at work here, and
the Women's Club, presided over by Mrs.
Emily Huntingdon Miller, decided to de
vote a day to the discussion of the subject
in its every phase. The mere announce
ment of the fact brought together a big
crowd of men and women at the early
hour of 8 o'clock. The disenssin was
ijuitc lively, for Chautauqua has no less I

rSPFCIAL TtLEOItAM TO TIIE DIsrATCII.t
MnTiiuo-, Mass.. July 25. Mrs. Mark
Hopkins-Searle,wife of Edward F. Searles,
the New York architect, and widow of the
millionaire, Mark Hopkins, of the Pacific
slope, died at her mansion here this morn
ing as a result of an attack of the grip,
Mrs. Searles was one of the richest women
in America. Her first husband, Mark Hop
kins, who died in 1878, was one of the fivd
men of California who built the Central
Pacific Railroad and made each thereby a
princely fortune. He left an estate that
was inventoried at 521,700,000, but that was
said to be one-third below the real value.
Sirs. Hopkins received all but S4.000 of it,
and a year or so ago she was said to be
worth "?30,000,000.
Mrs. Hopkins was born in New York
City. Her father w as William Sherwood, a
teacher and author of some repute. He went
to Great Barrington, Mass., when Mrs.
Hopkins was a little girL
Some vears ago Mrs. Searles bought land
surrounding the old Hopkins homestead in
Great Barrington, and in the rear of that
structure she erected a palace whose mag
nificence was talked about in all parts
of the country. In its -grandeur the main
hall eclipses many a European castle.
The floors and walls are of imported mar
ble. In the left tower is a cloakroom, and
in the right tower a reception room. The
floor is of marble and the ceiling of stucco
wood, polished to imitate ivory. The side
walls are paneled with costly mosaics, il
luminated from the back by electric lights.
Mrs. Searles gave a good deal for charita
ble and benevolent purposes. The greater
part of her gifts went to the Congregational
Church in Great Barrington, of which old
Dr. Samuel Hopkins, an ancestor of her
husband, was made pastor in 1741. Mrs.
Searles was a woman of great strength of
character. In mental characteristics, as
well as in appearance, she was rather masculine.
ST. IXHJIS, July 25. F. G. Neidring
haus, of tin-plate fame, was in a much bet
ter humor when called upon to-day than he
has been since the strike at his rolling mill
was begun. He read the report from
Washington concerning the decision of
Commissioner Owens, under which he can
import alien labor, and expressed surprise
at its publication, evidently thinking the
matter a secret.
"I was very much surprised to see that
article in the newspapers and do not know
how they could have got it," began Mr.
Niedringhaus. "It is not exactly correct,
however. In the first place, I did not write
Commissioner Owens a letter at all. I tele
graphed him. Furthermore, I did not ask
whether I could import labor; I knew I
could do that. The law passed in 18S3 is
very plain on that subject, and I knew
under it I could import labor. What I did
ask Commissioner Owens in my telegram
was whether it would be necessary to go
through any form in importing labor, and if
so, what it was. He telegraphed back that
it would not and that he would write me
particulars. I am now waiting to receive
his letter."
No Particular Nationality Wanted.
"Do you expect to import Welshmen or
Germans to work in your tin-plate mills?"
"I shall probably engage Welshmen, En
glishmen and Germans. I do not think I
shall confine myself to any one particular
class of laborers."
"How manv men do you expect to bring
over?"
"That I cannot tell just yet, but from
what I can learn there will be a few thou
sand all told come to this country. The
Tin Plate Manufacturers' Association in
this country has 22 members, and I have
seen it stated in newspapers that thousands
of workmen would come here to work in
the variouS mills to be operated. All the
members of the association are not going to
make finished tin plate, some making only
the rough goods."
"How many men will you employ at your
mill?"
"Well, if you inclnde the rolling of the
iron from the pig, which is really part of
the industry, we will probably have 300 or
400 men, and probably as high as 500. In
the iron department, "however, we will not
need foreign labor, as American workmen
can do that part of the job.
Foreigners Need to Instruct Americans.
"It is only in the tin plate work proper
that we will need foreigners, as the work
men of this country do not understand that
branch of the business, it being a new in
dustry. It is necessary for us to secure
skilled labor at the outset, and we can only
do soby importing workmen. Americans can
learn it afterward, and we expect to employ
American-born workmen whenever we can.
We feel it our duty to do so. The foreign
ers are needed to instruct our workmen,
however, in the business. Nearly all the
mills in AVales are shut down, and the work
men on the other side will be glad to come
to this country, as they get nearly 100 per
cent better pay here, and in some instances
even more than that."
"In what particular branches of the tin
plate work are skilled laborers necessary?"
"They are needed in several departments,
as the industry is a new one in this country.
On that one roller we now have at the
works we employ Americans, and it is
American boys who make the tin plate we
now turn out."
