OLD SPAIN'S PRELUDE
Tothe Chicaco World's Fair to Be a
Grand Tribute to Columbus.
ALL EUROPE IS REPRESENTED.
Scenes in the Discoverer's Life Will Be
Piitufully Reproduced.
"WHAT THE NEW WORLD COKTBIBTJTES
Madrid, Juno 13. Tha huge building
about to be finished in the Pasco de Eecol
etos, Intended for the new National Library,
i is not to be used as a library until after the
Columbus celebrations. It will first be
utilized for the art, literature and science
exhibitions, to be held shortly to commem
orate the discovery of the New "World.
Aa entire floor of this large building will
be reserved exclusively for American ex
hibits. A special commission has been ap
pointed by the United States to proceed to
Madrid. Besides the most interesting con
tributions and co-operation of the South
American Republic, Mexico will send the
treasures of her museums of antiquities, of
jart and of science. She has Toted 5100,000
'to cover expenses.
Every nation of Europe, including
Turkey, promises co-operation. The Pope
is to send everything in the Vatican relat
ing to the discovery of the Ifew World, in
cluding the celebrated bull of Alexander
VX, the Spanish Pope, who drew the lines
of division of the possessions beyond the
seas of Spain and Portugal. Austria and
Prance will send their most interesting
relics of art and science.
A Fine Art Exhibition Promised.
All the private collections or Madrid will
be installed in the new building, -where
these exhibitions are to be held. In addi
tion to the interesting exhibits of the retro
spective arts and sciences of Europe and
America, there will be a special exhibition
of fine art in the large palace near the hip
podrome, wherein will be installed a com
plete collection of the modern school of
Spanish painting.
The agricultural and industrial exhi
bitions in the park of the Pretiro will be
increased by the addition of a special ex
hibition of the Madrid local small in
dustries. Most of the cities of Spain will
celebrate the event by local iestivites, but
the grandest displav, next to that at Madrid,
is to be at Hueiva. The convent of La
Kabida is being put back into the primitive
condition in which it was when Columbus,
in bis humble pilgrim's garb, came to its
door a:.d begged the monks to give him a
glass of water for his sick and wayworn
Eon. The restoration is so complete that
the Moorish Marabut, about whose remains
the edifice of modern construction was
erected, is laid open to view.
The 60 meter column is progressing welL
The new quay is finished, as is also the road
leading from it to the convent, and the
road from the convent to Palos is also well
advanced.
Getting Vp a Fete Programme.
The Sociedad Colombina Pnubense, of
Hueiva, the President of which is Mr. Sund
heim, has been very active in getting up an
interesting programme for the comine fetes.
There will be a musical competition for
bands, boat races and pyrotechnic displays.
The BUhop ot Seville has been invited to
deliver an oration August 1, when the Queen
is to visit La Iiapida. By that time the
carabel Santa Maria is to be ready and lying
at anchor in the port of Palos.
Foreign warships are also to be there to
fire salutes to the Spanish flag. It is a
very curious coincidence that the present
JIayorof Huella is of the same name as a
lineal descendant of the man who was Mayor
of the place when Columbus sailed iorth" to
discover the New World. The two small
carabels, Pinta and Nina, to be built at the
expense of the American Government, will
be ready before October. The authorities
of the Canary Islands, reminding the Cen
tenary Committee that Columbus touched
at those islands on his wav to discover the
New "World, request that the three carabels
should also touch at those islands on their
way out to America next year. The com
mittee has promised that this shall.be done.
Convicts V. ill .Auk for Clemency.
A petition has been drawn up and signed
by 30,000 inmates of Spanish prisons,
begcing the Queen Eegent, the Senate, the
Chamber of Deputies, the Pope and the
United States Ambassador to have compas
sion on their lot and have an act of clemency
extended to them in memory of Columbus
and of the discovery of the New World. It
is ery probable that some attention will be
git en to this petition.
Besides the exhibits of antique literature,
science and arts, the displays of ancient
charts and maps will be very interesting,
showing the Old "World's position in those
days, maps in later date with the addition
ot America and the Indies, and more
specimens of chartography that do credit to
the trainers will also be snown.
Among the most interesting of these
maps, so far as America is concerned, is that
of "Juan de la Cosa, pilot or sailing master
for Columbus, who went out with the latter
on his A oyage ot discovery and accompanied
him home, and again went out with him on
his second voyage, in 1493. Fac similes of
this map are now being made by the Spanish
Government for distribution in the coming
shows at Madrid.
DILLON AHD O'BEIEN SPEAK.
They Tell Their Countrjmen lTlut Anti
rarnrliites Are Doing for Them.
Dublik, June 14 John Billon made a
speech at Cork to-day. He said the Par
nellites were boasting because the anti-Par-nellites
were short of funds, but that short
age was due to their liberality to evicted
tenants. Out of 20,000 collected 17.000
had been given to evicted tenants. The
anti-Parnellites, he added, had done every
thing possible to restore unity, but the l'a'r
nellites had rejected all offers, and now the
battle must be fought out
"William O'Brien also spoke at Cork to
day. He declared that Mr. Harrington's
proposals were not intended to be accepted;
they were merely intended lor consumption
in America. It was less important, he said,
to avoid petty election squabbles than to
allow Ireland to speak with no uncertain

The National League of Great Britain

London, June 13. The National League

Coroner McDowell held an inquest yes
terday afternoon in the case of Frank GrafI,
aged 4 years, who was drowned in Cbartiers
creek on Tuesday. The little fellow had
-naded into the creek after a stick, and got
into a hole six feet deep. His home was in

REDMOND AND IRELAND.
Be Denounces Healy's Methods aud la In-
ctoritd Me Has Faith in Gladstone A
Good Sam Second for His Cause in Mew
York.
New Yobk, Juno IB, The Academy of
Musio was tastefully decorated to-night
with the green flag of Ireland and the Stars
and Stripes, the occasion being a reception
tendered by a number of Irishmen to John
E. Bedmond, M. P., the Paruellite leader.
The house was comfortably filled when
Judge "Wanhope Lynn called the meeting
to order. The enthusiasm was great. There
was a tempest of cheers when Mr. Bedmond
stepped forward. He began his address
with a glowing tribute to Parnell. Said he:
Parnell preached the doctrine that we
Irishmen were the equals or Englishmen
who sought to be our masters. He fougbt,
and even when ho had but a band of men
less than a score by his side, he defeatett
one after the other ot me urea jj"""'
parties and finally ho brought one or
theso great Knglish nartles to admit the
Justice or our claim. This was the position
when last I stood on an American platform.
What is the position to-dayr The National
nnlfir hna Vibat, riAQtrmrnd. The National
party is destructed. tho jfntional hopes are
jeopardized, the National leader is dead.
Distracted, tho Iiisu National party looks
around in vain for a man fitted to take that
place. Cries of "You, you; you will do."
The flist proposals for peace made by the
opposition came from T. P. O'Conner in a
public speech. Ho stated that in the strug
gle for Home Rule lor Ireland the repre
sentation in the British Parliament should
include all shades of Nationalists. It should
not be considered the triumph of a party,
but the nation. I am lor a policy of con
ciliation, consideration and kindness, a
pollcv of fair and proportionate representa
tion for the followers or Parnell.-'
Continuing, the speaker said that a settle
ment on these lines was indorsed by Dillon,
McCarthy and O'Brien, and that the Par
neilites were willing to accept it; but they
could not consent to accept 10 or 12 seats
while their opponents were allowed 76.
Sympathy had been their principal oppo
nent, and Mr. Bedmond appealed to the
Irishmen of the United States not to let his
party be driven from public life. He then
reviewed his personal efforts to bring about
unitv. all of which came to naueht through
the bitterness of Mr. Healy. He con
tinued: If there was only trust until Mr. Gladstone
should be returned to power, and that as
quicklv n possible some measure of home
lule which would abolish the armed police
force might be seemed. The Irish membeis
will never consent to half measures. Come
weal, come woe, we are prepared to stand on
Parnell's principles, and we will refuse to
merge our foices in any English party.no
matter how fair it may appear. We will
never bai tcr aw ay our independence.
Next Mr. Bedmond read a cablegram
which he to-day received from Mr. Harring
ton, in which it was stated that every prop
osition had been rejected and that the
Whigs were determined to expel every man
who stood by ParnelL He then concluded:
Then I demand of you, if you are in earn
est and have not come nere to hoodwink me
cries of "No, no!" that you will lesist this
attempt on the part oi Healy to drive us
fiom public life. I demand your support,
and in closing let me fay, lift np your
hearts, for Ireland has suflered too much
and encountcied too many defeats to be dis
heartened now, even as this blow came just
as she stood on the threshold or freedom.
A little self-abnegation, a little more tolera
tion to the loyalty of union and independ
ence and the cause our fathers fought and
died lor will triumph. Then Ireland's
honor will De vindicated and her martyrs
justified.
At the conclusion of Mr. Bedmond'a ad
dress, a collection amounting to between
4,000 and 55,000 was taken aud the follow
ing resolution adopted:
Resolved. That the proposals of peace
offered by Mr. Redmond ana Mr. Harrington
afford a fair means of stopping strife with
out injnrlng the interests ot either section.
Neither section should attack the seats held
bv the other. That the earnestand substan
tial suppoit of the friends of Ireland in
America is hereby pleaged to the Independ
ent Irish party in their defense of our na
tional principles against international ue
feetion ana outside aggression.

tSrECIJLL TELEQBAM TO THE DISPATCH. 1
Atlantic City, June 15. Despite the
fact that the couutry is about to plunge
wildly into that great social disturbance, a
national campaign, the residents of this
famous lounging spot by the sea look
forward with assurance to a season of
the liveliest and most brilliant char
acter. Indications of it are to be seen
on all sides, and when the season was for
mally opened to-day a glimpse at the differ
ent hotel registers was sufficient to explain
the contented smiles of anticipation which,
even at this early date, adorn the visages of
the army of landlords. Even the allure
ments of national politics will not be tempt
ing enough to keep the great leaders away,
and the "game" will go on all summer with
the ablest exponents of each party battling
for the supremacy from this point.
Chris Magee, whose temporary victory
over his old-time foe, Quay, at Minneapolis
has made him a conspicuous figure of the
country, will spend the season at the Tray
more, where he has engaged the most elab
orate and expensive suite of rooms in the
house. Hitherto Mr. Magee has contented
himself with a modest room on the sec
ond floor of that famous hostelrie,
but during tho present season he
will disport himself in apartments bie
enough for ten persons. The utterance of
Chauncey Depew the other day to the effect
that Magee's methods, coupled with his
knowledge of politics, would make him in
valuable as a leader and counsellor in the
Republican party, is particularly signifi
cant so far as Atlantic City is concerned,
for it indicates that the political Mecca of
the coming campaign will be cooled by the
breezes which blow from the ocean at this
point.
Where Barrlty 'Wilt-Cool Offi
But the Pittsburg politician and his lieu
tenants are not to be left alone in their glory
by any means. Secretary of State Harrity,
who is as regular as clock work in his week
ly pilgrimages to Atlantic City, and who is
at present engaged in grooming that darkest
of dark horses, Governor Pattison, has
rented a roomy cottage located not a stone's

In hand it would not be impossible for even
a modern detective to guess out the loca

A Well-Known lawyer's Fad.
The amusement providers, of which a
large percentage of the population ot At
lantic City is composed, treat the average
Pittsburger jnstas he really is a very clan
nish mortal. He has fads in all things, in
cluding eating, drinking and smoking, and
he is particularly "faddish" in bathing
suits. For illustration of this latter
"fad," take tbe preparations made by
Major Montooth lor his bathing
this summer. Ihe handsome Major, who
has engaged rooms at the "Windsor, which
he is to occupy for six weeks, beginning
j uiy z, spends two nours in tne sun every
day, no matter what the weather may be.
Th'e people who run the bathing establish
ment take nothing for granted in providing
bathing apparel for Montooth. They obey
orders.
The Major has a suit for every day of the
week. They are of varied colors; but, the
fit, about which the wearer,is the mos'par
ticular, is always the same perfect Mr.
Montooth has caused to be fitted up for "his
pwn individual use a bathing parlor which
differs from the ordinary dressing room, in
asmuch as it is carpeted and upholstered.
"n herein Bathers Differ.
The Major is not alone by any means in
his desire to enjoy the best that old ocean
affords. Major Moreland, George "Westing,
house and Calvin "Wells have also engaged
exclusive bathing parlors at Butters. Major
Moreland is also very fond of having bathing
suits that fit perfectly, and blend beautifully
with all colors of the rainbow. Mr. "West
inghouse is always content with a dark blue
jersey suit, but in Mr. "Wells, the ordinary
bathing master sees a customer that is easy
to fit and easier to please. So long as a
suit serves the purposes demanded by mod
estly and the public, Mr. "Wells does not care
whether it Is made of calico or cretonne,
silk or satin, jersey or jeans. At the end of
last season, just before, Mr. "Wells departed
lor his own bustling city, he expressed a
wish that the somewhat dilapidated suit he
had worn all season be laid awav
for another year, as he had become some
what attached to it. Your correspondent
was shown the suit yesterday, and a
ihorouply disreputable and frowsy-looking
piece of property it is. But the camphor
has been shaken out, and it hangs ready for
business.
Councilman Fllnn Secretive but Confident.
Bobust looking Phil Flinn put in an ap
pearance on the board walk yesterday. Mr.
Flinn modestly declined to state his plans
for the summer, but he vouchsafed the in
formation: "That's a mighty good ticket
we made at Minneapolis, and we're in it,
see? Bill is coming down here next month
and he's going to stay all summer. But
Harrison will be elected all the same."
Borne New Amusement.
THE new opera house of Young, McShea
& Fralinger, at New York avenue and the
beach, is fast nering completion and an
effort will be made to open it on the 20th
inst The new theater Is quite metropoli
tan in its dimensions and is modern. It
will seat 1,400 persons. There are 600 opera
seats. The stage is 68x60 with a 50-foot
opening and six exits.
I'ittsbar: Is Getting Th-rs.
A goodly number of Pittsburgers are
already registered at the different hotels,
but the number is hardly large enough to
make a respectable advance guard to the
armv that is expected to arrive by next
week. As a general thing, at least so tra
dition goes, the ordinary Pittsburger does
not arrive in large quantities belore the
latter part of June. But when he and she
do get here they get here to stay, and very
often the flurrying snowflakes ot early win
ter alight on more Pittsburgers than on
persons'from any other locality.
Although the season is in its infancy
the devoted fishermen of the island have
already determined to raise au issue in
order to protect the scaly beauties that find
their way into the thoroughfare. It is a
question which involves the right of
visitors largely. There is a State law
which prohibits the taking of fish by nets,
but it is a law more honored in the breach
than in the observance. Thousands of
weak fish have been taken by the netters
this season from the thoroughfare,
and the number -is liable to reach
hundreds of thousands if the authorities
do not step in and interpose the
the strong arm of the law. A great many
who come here to fish do not care to rise
the chance of seasickness and therefore are
compelled to resort to the thoroughfare to
enjoy their piscatorial pastime. The At
lantic county fish warden does not seem
disposed to exercise the authority in his
cower, and in order to take a step in the
right direction a copy of The Dispatch)
DISPATCH. THURSDAY
containing this statement of 'fact will be
sent to Governor Abbett. As the Governor
is an enthusiastic fisherman it is thought he
will call the attention of the fish warden
very forcibly to the outrage.
The First Bis Event Scheduled.
The chief event of the early season and
one in which many Pittsburgers will par
ticipate will be the National Council of the
Junior Order of United American Me
chanics to be held in this city June 21, to 23,
inclusive. That the convention and the at
tendant demonstration will be of imposing
character is assured by the fact that no less
than 25,000 members of the order, of which
a fair proportion represents Pittsburg
branches, will be here during the
three days. Fully impressed with
the importance of making the visitors frel
thoroughly at home, the city authorities are
making elaborate preparations for their
comfort and entertainment. H otel proprie
tors with an eye to. business are getting
ready to decorate their caravansaries, and
private citizens and cottagers will flaunt
from their residences tbe Stars and Stripes
in honor of the patriotio guests. If the
weather is favorable, the largest parade
ever seen in this city will take place on
June 21.
Some of the Recent Arrivals.
Among the recent well-known Pitts
burg visitors were Miss Edna Morrow, Mrs.
George Sands, Mrs. J. T. McCrory, Miss E.

mendations The New Officers.
Buffalo, N. Y., June 15. The first
matter considered by the Grand Lodge, B.
P. O. Elks, this morning was the annual
report of Grand Exalted Buler Hay. It was
Intimated that all legal and other difficulties
connected with the separation of the Grand
Lodge from the original New York City or
ganization were in a fair way of being set
tled. It is proposed to revise the ritual
and consolidate the present two de
grees in one. This matter is in
the hands of a special committee
The Grand Exalted Euler deprecated
senseless buffoonary in the initiation of
candidates. He denounced the organi
zation of "clubs" in connection with the
lodges of Elks. He deprecated the custom
of some lodges of meeting on Suuday. This
sentiment met with very general approval.
The suggestion to maintain the B. P. O.
Elks as a special American institution was
received with favor, as was the recom
mendation to reduce the per capita tax.
The election of officers resulted as follows:
Grand Ruler, E. W. Hay, Washinston;

fSrECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.1
Tkentcw, June 15. The proceedings in
the action of the State against the Coalers
to break the Beading deal have been post
poned until July 7. The counsel for the
State were ready for the argument in the
matter to-day, but counsel for the Jersey
Central asked for time, proving that the
Wall street rumor that the New Jersey
authorities were about to abandon the case
was erroneous.
Indeed, Attorney General Stockton urged
an immediate hearing. "If the statements
in the information are true," he said, "large
amounts of money are being drawn from the
people daily by a combination that is in
open violation of the law and in defiance of
the authority of the" State. The ques
tion mast depend largely upon doc
uments attached . to the informa
tion, the lease, the tripartite agreement and
the charters jof the corporations.
"When the rule to show cause was granted,
returnable in 15 days, the defendants should
have been ready on the return day; if not
ready, it would seem to be the duty of the
Court to grant the prayer of the information
and eive the preliminary injunction asked
for until the case shall be heard. The in
jury is not only irreparable, but it is con
tinuous, and the refusal of the. Court to act,
without any reason given to the contrary,
would seem to be the denial of that protec
tion which it is the duty of the Court to ex
tend. If any delay is granted it should be
short and defendants should not be per
mitted to come in at tho end of that period
to surprise tho Stato with n new case which
they could just ns readily present now."
Chancellor McGIlI had pretty nearly the
same notion about the matter, and he fixed
July 7 as the lntest date for the argument.

The Canadian Paclflo Will Frobahly Make
Gotham Its 3Ialn Terminal.
Nr.w York, June 15. Is tho great Canadian
Pacific Railway seeking an American term
inus? There has been no formal announce
ment or the fact as yet, but well informed
men declare that the boundaries of tho
Dominion have becomo too-restricted for
the vast corporation, and that preparations
are now being made to run its rails through
United States territory to this city. Less
than three months ago the Hudson River
Railroad and Terminal Company was or
ganized under the laws of New Jersey. Its
purpo'o is to construct a railroad beginning
at Little Ferry, Bersen Countv, N. J., and
ending at Edgowatcr, on the Hudson river,
opposite this city. The entire lenscth of tho
proposed road Is three mile, of which more
than a milo will be a tunnel through tho
Palisades.
Since then a great deal of work has been
accomplished. River front and hill proper
ty worth $201,000 has been obtained by the
corporation, and the survevs tor the tunnel
are now being made When the Terminal
Company sprang into existence railroad
men concluded that its main object was an
outlet lor the New York, Susquehanna and
Western Railroad, which winds back of the
Palisades and sends its passengers into New
Yoik through trafflce arrangements made
with roads owning their own terminals. But
there is a greater corporation than the
Susquehanna namly, tho Canada Pacific
interested in tho Teiminal Company in the
opinion of many persons. Henry Day, a
patent lawyer in this city, and under whose
property in New Jersey the proposed tun
nel is to run, believes that it Is a move on
tho part of the Canadian Pacific railroad to
retell New- York. The Canadian Pnciflo
Company has had for some time surveyors
In the Northern part oflNew Jersev; he Says,
and is evidently considering a plan ofex-tenslon-

A sad case of starvation has come to light in
Bernardston, Mass.
About ten years ago Mrs. A. C. Brooks, of that
town, was taken seriously ill, and since that tlm
has been an Invalid.
The simplest kind of food was rejected by her
weak stomach and medicine had no good effect.
She could not eat even broths or meat Juice, and
most of the time her stomach was so weak that it
could nnt retain beef tea.
Nine different physicians attended her and her
casa excited a great deal of interest among the
medical profession. They agreed in saying It was
toe most severe case of indigestion they had ever
seen. It looked as though her hays were numbered,
for she was nearly starved to death. Yet when
hope seemed lost, there came a change and Mrs.
Brooks states to-day:
"Dr. W. H. Pierce recommended me to use
lactaled food. I did so. Lactated food gave me
health and strength, and my restoration is dae to
that alone."
There are many whose condition, though not so
severe, is similar to that described above, where
an easily digested, strengthening and appetizing
food Is an absolu te necetslty. In all weakened and
debilitated conditions lactated food will give tone
to tbe system, create an appetite, restore strength
and hasten recovery- It is lnvahiable In fevers,
dyspepsia and all wasting dlsenses. Invalids, dys
peptics, the aged, and alt whose powers of di
gestion arc weakened, find great good in this pure
food.
Its basis is sugar ofmllk: with this li combined
In.proper proportions the nutritive qualities of the
three great cereals, wheat, barley and oats. Like
tbe good things of which It is composed, it costs so
little as to be In the reach of all.
