AT THE WORLD'S FAIR
Large Crowd* of Tonrlste Throne Jack
son Park.
Chicago, Jane 11. —This morning the
outlook in Jackson park for a successful
waa a heavy fog and the air wae raw
and chilly. Toward noon the fog dis
appeared and the sun came ont bright
and warm. Then people began to come,
and by 3 o'clock Some 80,000 were people
on tbe ground. It was different from the
previous Sundays, workingmen and
their families not predominating, bnt
thousands of tourists and pleasure-seek
ers were there. The feature of the day
was the ascension of a captive balloon.
Thousands gathered arouno, but as only
15 could make the trip, many went away
disappointed. Tbe monster Ferris
wheel, which rises 250 feet in the air,
was also set in motion, bnt no passen
gers were taken
Tonight Infanta Eulalia and party
dined at the Washington Park clnb.
The club house was finely decorated.
Covers were laid for 18.
Prince Antoine this afternoon visited
Buffa Bill's Wild West.
This morning the princess, attended
by her suite, went to mass at St. Mary's
church, and tonight she witnessed the
seige of Sebaetapol.
THE LESSER EVIL.
Cardinal Gibbons Favor* Sunday Open
ing; of the World's Fair.
New York, Jnne 11.—The World will
tomorrow publish an authorized inter
view with Ordinal Gibbons in regard
to the proposed closing of the world's
fair on Sunday. Cardinal Gibbons is
quoted as saying: "We believe the
Lord's day to be not only • day of rest
and religions observance, bnt a day on
which innocent recreation is allowable.
If a visit to the fair comes within that
limit, the opening of the fair to provide
innocent recreation on Sunday after
noons cannot be considered a desecra
tion of the day. Having performed the
religious duties required of tbem in the
morning, onr Catholic people are free
then to spend tbe day in such recrea
tion as becomes Sunday. These and
other reasons lead me to believe that
the fair should be open Sunday after
noons; more evil will result from Sun
day closing than from opening."

Governor Altgeld today heard the con

country reports that the sheepmen are
being reinforced hourly by new recruit",

Navahoe sailed today for England, there
to try speed against English yachts.
She has already become famous on thie
side for being the craft upon which in
numerable changes had to be made be
fore Bhe could be eaid to be in sailing
trim. The eecrecy under which she was

By the Associated Press. 1
Washington, Jnne 11.—The remains
of the dead victims of the horrible
wreck of Ford's theater Friday are nearly
disposed of. Washington today was a
city of funerals and all day long mourn
ers have gone about the streets. Every
one knew what the sad processions
meant and the sympathy of all waa ex
tended, albeit unexpressed in many
cases, to the sorrow-stricken ones. In
quiry confirms the statement that none
of the victims were men of property,
most of them lived on their salaries
which furnished means of livelihood,
but left little for a day like this. Most
of them were married and some had
large families who are now left, if not
entirely defendant upon friends and rel
atives, at least lacking ; funds for im
mediate use.
The body of George Q. Allen was
taken to Philadelphia for interment
after funeral services here. After the
last sad ritea were performed over the
remains of Emanuel Gates Shull, the
casket was taken to Gettysburg for in
terment. The body of J. Boyd Jones
was sent to his home in Evansville,
where a widow and three children await
its arrival.
The body of Captain Michael J. Mul
ledy is now on- the way to New Orleans,
La.; that of Samuel P. Banes was taken
to Bristol, Pa.; that of Jeremiah Daly,
to Homole, Pa.; that of R. S. Miller, to
Cumberland, Ohio.
Nearly all the deceased were members
of various military or civil organizations,
and comrades in each case attended the
funerals and escorted the remains to the
railroad stations. J. B. Gage wae a
Grand Army man, and Kit Carson post
gave him a military funeral, and buried
him among his comrades at Arlington.
George M. Arnold was one of the best
known colored men in the government
employ here and his funeral at the
JTrjtropumau Airtam Mr B. clrarcb al
traded an enormous attendance, which
included colored miiitia companies.
Funeral services were held over the re
mains of Frederick B. Loftus at hiß home
in the presence of hie wife and six chil
dren and many friends. The masonic
fraternity conducted the services over
Captain Ben Miller and started for Utica,
N. V., where the interment will be
made.
The remains of Otto F. W. Maeder
were interred at Arlington. The body
of Dr. Burrows Nelson was interred at
Monnt Olivet cemetery, and that of
Frank Williams of Middletown, Wis.,
was bnried in the Congressional ceme
tery. The Independent Order of Me
chanics laid at rest in Greenwood the
mortal remains of Joseph Fagan, and
Garfield Post, G. A. R. interred at Ar
lington the body of their late comrade,
J. B. Chapin.
Mnch of the talk npon the disaster is
now of relief measures and circulation
of subscription papers in the depart
ments and tbe Washington newspapers,
in efforts to gather funds for the relief
of tbe victims and their families, is
meeting with success to a degree
that does credit to the benevolence of
the citizens. One notable fact is the
growth of the feeling of resentment on
tbe part of the public against tbe per
sons responsible for the wreck, in ad
vance of the verdict of the coroner's
jury and the findings of the court of in
quiry ordered by the war department.
There is no general agreement upon thiß
point, and the public is rather indis
criminately condemning everybody who
had anything to do with tbe control of
tbe wrecked building, from congress
down to the very laborers who were dig
ging in tbe cellar when the crash came.
The injured in Friday's catastrophe
now in the hospitals, with the exception
of two. are in a fair way to recover.
Deputy Coroner Shaffer waa engaged to
day in making preparations for tbe in
quest, which will be resumed tomorrow.
TBI BORDEN TRIAL.
Tha Proseeutlon Said to be Presenting a
Weak Case.
Fall Rivbr, Mass., June 11. —All day
long talk has been plentiful on the Bor
den murder, and there is no denial that
it is the general opinion that the prose
cution thus far has presented a very
weak case. This opinion is strength
ened by rumors current here to tbe
effect that L'zzie Borden's counsel will
shortly explode a bombshell in the camp
of the authorities. The defendant's
lawyers do not attempt to disguise their
joyfnl feeling because of the present
Btatna of tbe case, and tbe girl's friends
here are jubilant. The hatchet incident
with the accompanying denials, iB a
source of much comfort. But while the
prisoner's friends are buoyant, the
spirits of the police authorities are by
no means downcast.

GUARDING THE CANAL.
AMERICAN MARINES ON SHORE IN
NICARAGUA.
Great Excitement Created Among the
Populace Over the Alleged In
vasion—An Explanation
Demanded.
Managua, Jnne 11.—The landing oi
marines and sailors from the American
warship Atlanta and the establishment
of a camp near the village of Santa Fe,
close to tbe canal, has caused the great
est excitement here, even exceeding tbat
which prevailed daring the late revolu
tion or upon the overthrow of
Sacaza. Tbe explanation of the
American officials is that they merely
landed forces in order to protect canal
property. A large deputation of citi
zens has been chosen to demand an ex
planation from tbe government.
A late rumor is that tbe United States
troopFi will be withdrawn. Activity has
been noticed in camp as if some move
was premeditated.
A FOREIGN INTRIGUE.
The Cause of thk Downfall of the Revo
lotion Id Nlo.rsjpji,.
New York. June 11.—The World's
City of Mexico special says: The Mexi
can Financier says: Tbe downfall of the
Sacaza government in Nicaragua appears
to have behind it an intrigue of foreign
interests, hostile to the continuance of
American control in the Nicaraguan ship
canal. When the canal was begun little
attention was paid to it, but now that it
is likely to be successful, the European
governments wish to have a voice in its
control. Mr. Guzman, who represented
the late government of President Sacaza
at Washington, favors an American pro
tectorate in Nicaragua, but it seems to
ns the moral influence of the United
States in Nicaragua is sufficient to main
tain the status quo. The Americans will
not permit the successful revolutionists
in Nicaragua to adopt a policy hostile,
pot only to American but Mexican in
terests. If tbe new government in Nic
aragua cancels tbe canal company's
concession, there will be serious trouble
and Sacaza may return to power.
THE FIRE EXTINGUISHED,
A Cargo of Bnrnlng Sulphur Saved by
Selentlflo Methods.
San Francibco, June 11. —The fire in
1900 tone of sulphur on board the Brit
ish ship Elmbank has been extinguished
by the application of scientific methods.
It was at first intended to flood the
vessel with water and scuttle her, but
Professor Price, a chemist who had been
consulted last night, advised a different
plan. Fonr chemioal engines were sum
moned and poured carbonic acid gas
in the hold of the vessel. These
were insufficient, and seven empty
whiskey barrels were charged with
sods, marble dust and sulphuric acid,
aud tbe carbonic acid gas generated
therefrom was turned into the hold. The
experiment was so successful that the
chemical engines were this morning
withdrawn, but the improvised tire ex
tinguishers today continued work. This
evening tbe decks of tbe vessel are per
fectly clear and not a sign of fire is seen
anywhere. The damage cannot yet be
estimated.

Ravensbury was off first, but was over
hauled quickly by Chantenay. At tho
end of the first furlong Chantenay was
slightly in the lead, Ravensbury next
with others bunched. After the second
furlong, Ragotosky drew up alongside of
Ravensbury and Callistrate spurted
three lengths ahead of both. The rela
tive positions of the horses remained Un
changed np to a half mile from home,
when Sylphine came to the front with
Ragotosky, Fousi Yama and Callistrate
in hot pursuit. Ravensbury was shut
in on tbe rail, and was thought to be
out of tbe race, as Ragotosky drew clear
and seemed to be winning easily. In
the next to the laat furlong, however,
Rravensbury made a desperate spurt,
closed in on Ragotosky and finished but
a short head behind, and two lengths
ahead of Callistrate, Fousi Maya fourth ;
