A MAGNIFICENT MARINE DISPLAY The Crack Fleet of Our Navy Welcomes the Visitor With a Salute Escorted to tho Waldorf Hotel by the Sixth United States Cavalry. New Youk, Aug. CO. It Is doubtful If Now York ljiiy over presented a grnndor 6lght than It (lid yostordny, for anchored thero In stntoly strength wore eleven of tho warship-lot tho now navy of tho United States, tho embodiment of gruco and 6trongth, of spood and offonslvo power. Tho Chlnoso statesman, at tho review off Spit Head, after ho visited Queen Vic toria at Osborno, was treated to a flno dis play of warships, forty-sovon ships, twon-ty-ovon b.ittloshlps nnd crulsora and twonty torpedo dostroyors being thero ullgnod for his Inspection, hut ho nover set oyos on a finer fleet than that com manded by Admiral lhinco. Kach vessel represented tho vory latest Improvement In everything. This gallant floet, which swung In doublo columns, on oncholon, to tho Hood tldo at 10 o'clock, rams pointing seaward, con sisted or tho Indiana, Now York, Massa chusetts, Malno, Toxns, Columbia, Now urk, Halelgh, Montgomery, Amphltrlte, and Terror. At tho American lino pier wore statlonod four troops of tho Plxth cavalry, U. S. A., and a detachment of tho naval rosorvo. Tho former wore detailed to escort tho groat Chinaman up Broadway to tho Waldorf hotel, and tho latter acting as a guard of honor at tho dock, which was appropriately docorated for tho occasion, tho United States finer nnd tho yellow standard of China, with Its blaok dragon rampant, predomlnatlng.- On board tho Dolphin with Qonoral Rugor wero tho Chlnoso minister, Yang, and sulto, tho Chlnoso consul and a fow specially Invited guosts.

Somo of his titr3 aro: Chief of tho Chlnoso mission at the! coronation atMoscow, ninbassador, envoy extraordinary, spoclul envoy, senior guar dian of tho holr apparent, prinio minister or state, oarl of tho first rank, First Secre tary hi, lil Compto Id Hung Chang. And so on. Eventually, however, It was decided to address tho Chinese states man ns "your oxcellonoy," and so ho will be officially torniod during his stay In tho Unltod States. Ij! Hung Chang's sulto consists of about forty persons, and ho has with him about 300 plocos of baggage some of them being of immonso size. Tho sumptuous collin which ho carriod with him having been sent back to China, via tho Suez canal, would seem to show that the traveler has no fear of dying before reaching his native land again. Tho visit of Li Hung Chang to tho United Statos Is not of an official charac ter. Ho has no spocial mission from his emperor, although ho boars an autograph lottorfrom his royal highnoss to President Clovoland. I ho viceroy Is simply taking advantage of his homownrd trip after tho Moscow coronation coromonlos, to seo something of tho western world. Old as ho Is, howover, ho Is credited with a dosiro to institute drastic reforms In his native land nnd one of tho reasons given for his prosont tour Is his deslro to obtain knowl edge of tho working of tho government or tno eiiirercut countries, to get a per Boual gllnipo into tho inner life of Ameri cans and Europeans nnd to Invostigato modorn civilization. Hardly had LI Hung Chang been set tlod In his spacious quarters In tho Wal dorf when an attache of tho Itustian lega tion called to arrango a conference bo twoon tho viceroy and tho Kussian min ister. Ho was successful, and though tho tlmo sot was not mado known It is be lieved that tho conforonco will bo held to day. Owing to past and other mora re cont ovonts in tho cast tho promptness of tho Ilussluns caused much speculation about tho hotel. LI Hung Chang dlnod last cvenlna on food prepared by his own cooks and re tired at his usual oarly hour, 11:30 o'clock. President Clovoland will receive Li Hum Chang today at tho ro-ddeuce of Hon. William C. Whitney, and in tho ovenlng tno viceroy will attend a baunuutnt tho Hotel Waldorf given In his honor by ex- ministers to China. V special guard of policemen has boon thrown around the Waldorf, and as loin.' as LI Hung Chang is In tho building this guard will bo maintained. Chinatown was gaily decorated hut night, and an onor mous crowd, many ladles with escorts, taking this occasion to oxploro that soo tlon for tho llrst tlmo, overran tho narrow streets. ins v or auk on tiih st. loijis. How Ho Spent tho Tllnii Coining Over eu tho Illg Steamer. NEW Yohk, Aug. SO. A press corre spondent gives somo of tho doings of Li Hung Chang on board of tho St. Louis. The viceroy had boon Impressed with tho story of groat riches In America, und was anxious to know from oach person ho talked with all about their wealth, nnd especially how much they each wuut be fore thoy aro satisfied. Tho ambassador also wanted to know about his reception In America, wan tod to know if there would bo u groat publlo demonstration and whether tho president had a palaco on Governor's Island or in Now York to recolvo In, and was very much surprlsod to know that no groat ap propriations had boon mado to rocelvo him. and that no uulaco oxlsted iu our I I country sum ns no had Known in ntnor nnnnn nr lirni Til IIITTfl countries, nnd tho reception accorded him K U J I lf HkU MM Pl r r I A country such as ho had known l'n other countries, and tho reception accorded htm would bo in keeping with tho slmplo Ideas of our republic. In speaking of bicycles tho ambassador mado the remark that it seemod as If all tho world was on wheels, and if tho roads In China wero good enough undoubtedly his poJiplo also would rido bicycles. LI Hung Is vory much Intcrosted In tho building of railroads, and predicts that where thero aro now only 300 miles of rail road In China In a fow years one will soo many miles under construction. Tho method probably pursued will lx an Invi tation to foreign cupltal to romo in and build, granting It liberal concessions with tho privilege to China to purchaso at a fixed price at n named tlmo. On Thursday tho ambassador emit for Captain llaudlo and thanked him for tho attention and courtesy shown him on board tho ship, for tho service and gon eral accommodations of tho party, praised him for tho way tho ship hud been run, asked him many questions about his duties and tho dutlos of his officers, tholr Falarlos, etc., and wound up by saying that tho St. Louis was indeed tho quoon of tho ocean. Tho ambassador ontortalnod Ronator John W. Daniel, of Virginia, and Mr. Theodoro W. Cramp, of l'hlladolphtn. During his conversation with Mr. Cramp tho Chincso Btutosman asked him why ho withdrew somo of his Investments during tho last fow years, and after Mr. Crump gavo his reasons tho Chlnoso traveler re plied: 'Oh, yos, you don t want all your ggs In ono basket." Thus again showing his knowlodgo and appreciation of somo of our sayings. Intalkingof tho religion China, tho ambassador said thoy wore gob- ting vory liberal. Manitoba Parochial School (Juration.
