A dispatch from London says that
in view of the king's continued Im
provement no further bulletin will be
I'stied at night.
Buckingham palace wore a gayer ap
pearance yesterday than for a week
past, and the constant coming and go
ing of rinalty and streams of carriages
bote testimony to the feeling of In
creased confidence that the king would
recover. In the afternoon a party of
princesses drove to Sheen House,
Richmond, and the Prince and Prin
cess of Wales paid a long visit to
Buckingham palace. Last evening the
queen and the royal ladies dined with
in sight of the public through the
windows In the front of the palace,
thousand!, of people being gathered in
tho space In front of the building.
Tho king was again successfully
transferred from his bed to a mov
able couch.
Several postponed functions are be
ing arrunstd. Lord and Lady Lans
dowue announced that their reception
will be held July 1. The king has
cunimnndcd that tho Prince and Prin
cess of Wales shall lepresint their
majesties at the India ollice reception
to be held July 4.
Tho general feeling of relief as a
result of the favorable reports of tho
condition of the king vented Itself
last night by touching off of tho
3.0D0 bendres throughout the United
Kingdom, which were originally pre
pared to celebrate coronation night.
Tho signal to light the fires was
given at five minutes past 9 o'clock;
a rocket was sei:t up from the top
of a gigantic wheel In Earl's court
and burst In a cloud of stars 1,000
feet overhead.
In resimnse to this signal bonfires
roso from every elevation of any
pi-nsrquencp from the I. Izard to tho
Orkney. The celebrations were un
foitunately somewhat dampened by a
downfall of rain.
Tendon was not officially Illumi
nated. It had been hoped that the
Mansion House, the Bank of England
and Marlh: rough Hcuse would join
in the celebration, all their Illumi
nating stands lipfnt; Intact, but none
of the ofllcial d ecorations were lit up.
Tho display In London In this line
was renflned to the theaters, tho ho
tels and the business houses on the
Strnnd, Fleet street and other thor
ough fa res.
There was quite a celebration at
Rplthead yesterday when the nearest
approach to a review of the great fleet
there was seen In the trip of several
transports loaded with volunteers and
colonial troops and a number of dis
tinguished persons, who Inspected the
empire's "first line of defense."
The arrangements for King Ed
ward's dinner to the poor of London,
to be held July 5 are being rapidly
completed.
Report cf Trade Conditions.
Lradslreet's says of the state of
trade:
Unseasonably cool weather Is a draw
back to Immediate retail distribution
and arrests the progress of the corn
crop east anil west. Confidence In the
outlook, however, Is evidenced by the
continued heavy buying for fall deliv
ery noted In the great gain growing
sections of the west. This Is also re
flected by the continued large In
creases in railway earnings over the
best results of previous years, except
where, as in the case of the coal roads,
distribution is paralyzed by the whole
sale shutdown of production and con
sumption. The prices movement has been Ir
regular In keeping with varying weath
er conditions as far as agricultural
products arc concerned.
In cereals the featuies have been
the strength of corn, on reports of
cold weather, and the advance in
oats due to short supplies and large
cash demand. Wheat has fluctuated
within narrow limits, but the large de
creases in supplies have constituted a
balance to the quite favorable reports
as to the winter and spring planted
crops.

Amnesty For Filipinos.
At a meeting of the cabinet the terms
of an amnesty proclamation to tbe
Filipinos, which It Is contemplated to
Issue on the Fourth of July, were
agreed upon. The war department for
Some time past has had under consid
eration the draft of a proclamation.
In Its modified state it was agreed to
by the cabinet and Secretary Root
will cable It to Acting Governor
Wright for his Inspection. If it meets
the Inttcr's approval nothing will re
main but for the president, if the Phil
ippine civil government bill is a
law on that day, as is now expected It
will be, to Issue on Independence day
a formal proclamation setting forth
terms of amnesty for all political of
fenders In the Hands, Including
Agulnaldo and those held at Guam.
Tho cabinet meeting was held In
the president's temporary quarters on
Lafayette tquaro and was the first
time In 88 years that a regular ses
sion of the cabinet had been held out
side of tho White House.
Bryan's Views on Harmony.
The absence of W. J. Bryan from the
Democratic harmony dinner at New
York Is pretty well explained by a state
ment given out by Mr. Bryan com
menting on the dinner. At the outset
Mr. Bryan says there Is no such
thing as Democratic harmony, where
former President Cleveland Is con
cerned. Ho pays:
"The banquet given on the evening
of Juno 19 by the Tilden club of New
York city was advertised as a har
mony meeting but It turned out to be
what might have been expected of
such a gathering, an ovation to the
chief guest, former Democrat, Grover
Cleveland. There can be no such thing
as harmony between men like him
and those who believe In Democratic
principles, and he is frank enough to
say so. He spent no time looking
for "middle ground," upon which to
gather together discordant elements.
"The flirht Is on between a Demo
cracy thnt means Democracy and a
Clevelamllsm which means plutocracy.
Every speech made by Mr. Cleveland
shows more clearly the odlousne?s of
the policies for which he stands. We
have more to fear from those who,
like Mr. Hill, Indorse Mr. Cleveland's
views but conceal their real purpose
in ambiguous language."
Autopsy on Murdered Child.
An autopsy held Sunday morn
ing on the body of Mary Murphy, the
6-year-old child w ho disappeared from
her home In Buffalo on June 17, and
whose body was found Friday night In
a pond in Forest Lawn cemetery,
showed beyond doubt that the child
bad been criminally assaulted and then
strangled to death. Medical Examiner
Danser and his assistant, Dr. How
land, conducted the autopsy In the
presence of Assistant District Attor
ney Haller. Dr. Danser stated that
appearances showed conclusively a
criminal assault and that the child
had afterwards been strangled. There
were no traces of water In the lungs.
The police have no clue to the perpe
trator of the atrocious deed.
Charged With Husband's Death.
On Friday night, June 20, following
a call of his wife at his office, the body
of Dr. Jacob F. Meyer was found with
two bullet holes in it. One of the
bullets had penetrated his heart. Mrs.
Meyer had left the office quietly and
gone to a police station nearby, where
she told the sergeant that her hus
band had been accidentally shot during
a friendly scuffle between them and
asked for an ambulance to be sent to
the office. Detectives found evidence
which was brought out before Police
Justice Murphy which resulted In the
finding of a charge of murder in tho
first degree against Mrs. Meyer, who
has been kept under close police sur
veillance. The accused woman is In
a state of cgllapse.
Dying Man Saw Race.
Captain Sam Bryant, one of the best
known turf men in the country, died
of dropsy at his home in Louisville
Sunday.
When the American derby was run
at Washington park, Chicago, one
week ago, Captain Bryant, against the
advise of his physicians, insisted on
going to see the race. He was con
fined to his bed at the time and had to
be carried from his home on a couch
to the train. From the train he was
borne to the race track and his couch
was placed in position so that he
might view the race, which he said
would be the last he would ever see.
After the race was over he was
brought back to this city and since
then he had gradually grown weaker
until the end came.
Harvard and Yale Races.
Rowing within 10 seconds of record
time, the Yale 'vnrsity crew Thursday

In the four-oared race the colors of
Harvard were borne to the front. The
Cambridge four won by two and a half
lengths.
In the frerhman race Yale's crew led
over the last mile until within a few
feet of the finish, where the Harvard
crew by a magnificent spurt jumped
their she!' up even with the blue.
The Judges were compelled to decide
that the race was a draw.

CORONATION SPORTS.
Amateur Contests Won by Englishmen
But Americans Were Gamey.
London, July 1. A large company
assembled at the National Sporting
club last night to witness the boxing
contests, held In connection with the
coronation sporting tournament, be
tween Harvard and Yale students and
English amateurs. All the profession
al fighters who took part in the con
tests held last week were present and
In some cases they acted as attendants
for the American students. All the
amateur bouts resulted in victories
for the Englishmen but the Americana
gave remarkable displays of game
ness. The first contest was between heavy
weights. Dodge of Harvard was con
siderably smaller than his opponent,
F. Parkes of tho Polytechnic Boxing
club, who is the amateur heavyweight
champion. In the course of the sec
ond round both men landed a number
of heavy blows. Dodge was the fir.d
to weaken, but he fought a resolute
third round and at times looked de
cidedly dangerous. Parkes, however,
got the verdict on points and Dodge
was vociferously applauded for his
gallant stand.
In the middleweight contest Wcncke
of Yale met R. C. Warnes of the
Lynn Boxing club, who is the amateur
middleweight champion. The Ameri
can had all the advantage of the rapid
exchanges at the opening, but eventu
ally Warnes acted on the defensive
and by the aid of a number of facial
hits he got a lead which enabled him
to win comfortably. The contest was
remarkable for the good feeling
shown by both boxers.
In the lightweight bout, Catcs ol
Columbia was fully 20 pounds lighter
than his opponent, A. Warner of the
Hlghgate Harriers, who is the amateur
lightweight champion, and much re
gret was expressed at this difference
In weight. In spite of the dispro
portion, however.Cates put up a plucky
fight. Just before the end of the
opening round the American went
groggy from a succession of heavy
blows on the head and "Tommy West"
his second, wanted to give in for him.
Cates Insisted upon another attempt
but with no better result and the
referee stopped th fight before the
second round was concluded. The
courage of the American students was
greatly admired. All the amateur con
tests were limited to three rounds
each.
UNIVERSITY CONVOCATION.
First Formal Session Held In Senate
Chamber.
Albany, July 1. The first formal

tion was opened in the senate cham
ber last night. In the absence of the
Vice Chancellor, Bishop William C.
Doane, Regent St. Clair McKelway
of Brooklyn presided. Prominent ed
ucators from every section of the
state were present. After prayer by
Rev. Walton W. Battershall, D.D., Mr.
McKelway Introduced Governor Ben
jamin B. Odell Jr, who was on the
program to deliver the address of
welcome. Mr. McKelway said:
"My friends The regents are glad
to have you as guests. We meet
under the shadow of sorrow. But
sorrow neither supersedes nor sus
pends duty. Our dear dead chan
cellor would have us do here what
he has here done in the past ad
dress ourselves to the work which
the state expects us to do In its higher
educational fields. That will bo our
work during the sessions. The wel
come of the state to the convocation
will be extended by the governor of
New York, to whom in advance I am
sure the convocation Itself will give
a hearty greeting."
Governor Odell spoko of the ad
vanco made In this state in the work
of education, so that it has become
an example for many other common
wealths. President Nicholas Murray Butler of
Columbia university, New York city,
was the next speaker. His subject
was: "Fundamental principles of ed
ucation In the United States."
At the close of the session an In
formal reception was held In the
state library at which the visiting
educators were presented to Gover
nor Odell and Dr. Butler.

BEVERIDGE ASSAULTED
Just After th Executive Ses
sion Had Adjourned.
Pulled Away by Senators Hansbrough
and Spooner Trouble Grew Out ol
a Heated Controversy In the Sen
ate In the Afternoon Beveridge
Made No Effort to Resist
Washington, July 1. SenatorBailey
of Texa3 assaulted Senator Beveridge
of Indiana la.-t night just after the
Bonate hal adjourned from executive
session. The Texas senator was
dragged away and separated from his
opponent by some of those about the
senate. He was very angry and
threatened severe harm to the In
diana senator.
ine episode was the result of a
heated controversy which tho twe
senators had during the afternoon
when Senator Beveridge had said that
Senator Bailey had made "an unwar
ranted attack" on Solicitor Penfiuid
of the state department.
In executive session Senator Bev
eridge like ether senators who smoke
lighted a cigar and took a seat on the
Republican side. He was still there
when the senato adjourned. Senator
Bailey crossed the aisle and walked
through the seats until he was facing
Senator Beveridge.
"Beveridge," he said, "I don't want
to have any trouble with you, but I
want you to withdraw those words
which charge me with making an un
warranted attack upon Penfleld."
"I did not intend to Insult you," re
plied Senator Beveridge, "and there is
nothing in my language that you could
consider offensive."
"I don't allow any one to say that I
libel a man and that is what you dc
In making the charge. Now, if you
won't withdraw the words when I ask
you I'm going to make you withdraw
them."
Senator Bailey had been getting
more and more angry and excited as
he tallied. He had been sitting down
part cf the time or leaning agnlnst the
desk immediately In front of Senator
Beveridge. The latter. In reply to
Senator Bailey's last remarks, still re
maining In his chair, said: "I repeat
that I did not Intend to insult you and
that I have nothing to retract."
As these words were uttered Sena
tor Bailey threw himself upon Senator
Beveridge, who Is a man hardly up
to the average In physique, and seized
him by the throat with both hands.
Tho rush was so sudden and fierce
that the chair In which Mr. Beveridge
was sitting was pushed back against
a desk and was toppled over.
Before the assault could go any fur
ther senators who had been sitting
near had moved up between the desks.
Senator Hansbrough seized Senator
Bailey by one arm and Senator Spoon
er seized the other. The Texas sen
ator is a powerful man and It was with
great difficulty that the two senators
were able to drag him away from
Senator Beveridge and when they suc
ceeded a part of the Indiana senator's
neckwear was ripped and torn away
In tho vigorous grasp of senator
Bailey.
Senator Bacon and Barney Layton,
assistant doorkeeper, came quickly
forward and assisted in pulling the
Texas senator further away. Senator
Bailey meanwhile struggling to get
free and lunging toward Senator Bev
eridge. As he was removed a little
distance he was heard to litter some
thing that sounded like a thieat about
killing.
Without further effort, however, he
walked away when Senator Bacon
urged him to be quiet and led hlni to
ward the Democratic side. Senator
Bacon engaged Senator Bailey In con
versation for some time, advising him
to ccol down.
Senator Spooner also went across
the aisle and discussed the matter
with the Texas senator, urging him to
apologize and If possible fix It up at
once, but Senator Bailey refused all
such proffers, declaring that Senator
Beveridge had insulted him In the
senate and that he had taken tbe only
course leit. as the Indiana senator
had refused to withdraw his remarks,
Senator Beveridge remained In the
chamber for some little time and con
tinued to smoke his cigar.
He remarked to those who spoke
to him on tho subject that it did not
amount to anything. He made no ef
fort to resist or resent the attack
made on him. In fact the whole thing
was over lu a very brief Interval be
fore nun h resistance could have been
Jffered.

Will Seek Aid of Illinois Congressmen
In an Appeal to Westminster.
Toronto, Ont.. July 1. A last ef
fort Is being made to save the Ufa
of Fred Lee Rice, awaiting execution
for the murder of County Constable
Ljyilliain Boyd. It is a course without
precedent and is to be instituted in a
foreign country.
Rice's family live in Champaign
county, Illinois, and were prosperous
before F.ed began his criminal ca
reer from forgery to murder. Tho
state's representatives in congress and
In the United States senate say they
know the Rice family well.
T. C. Robinette, counsel for the
condemned man, after seeing the fail
ure of step after step in the battle for
his client's life, has placed himself In
communication with Senator Mason
of Illinois and Joseph O. Cannon of Il
linois, chairman of the appropriation
committee of the house. It Is hoped
that these men can be induced to In
terest themselves in the Rice case
and can command sufficient influence
to at leal cause a stay In carrying
out the sentence set for Friday, July
18.
Robinette will probably go to Wash
ington this week to arrange the de
tails of un appeal which is to be made
to the authorities at Westminster
through Joseph E. Choate, the United
States ambassador In London.
Mrs. Rice did not arrive In the city,
but Is expected. She will probably go
to Ottawa with a mother's plea to the
minister of Justice.
