SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 2, 1895. THE BAPPV III' M. Exception by President and Ladies at White House. flowers and fine dresses. Few Democratic Leaders, and Sot So Many Veterans as Usual. 4 Taraoot by tha Army U j #f tk« Lftdie«' ToU*u-Q« M a Victoria's New Tear's Favar* Kosabary Shi That SO Teora Are Croato#* Washington City, Jan. 1.-Probably in co other city of the country does that peculiarly American custom of exchang ing New Tear's calls cAntlnue to flourish with the same vigor as in the capital of this nation. In all other cities the custom has become to be more regarded in the br«aeh than ia the observance. In Wash ington City everybody in oflivial life either receives or pays calls. The president himself sets the fashion In this matter, and naturally the White house is the fo cus of interest of the first day of the new year, for there are congregated the most distinguished persons in the land in offi cial life, under tfae most attractive con ditions. The ceremonies of the day begin at 11 o'clock, and long before that bour today a great throng of people had gath ered at the entrance to the White house to peep into the carriages as they rolled through the gates, laden with pret ty women, distinguished statesmen and gorgeously attired members of the diplo matic force. The old White house had been thorough ly prepared for the day's ceremonies. Out side*, a canopy had been erected for the protection of the quests who came in car riages. On hte inside, canvas covers had been laid carefully to prevent the destruc tion of th rich carpets by The trampling of the thousands of feet which were to pass over them. As in past years, the decorations were afll floral, but there were noticeable differences in the plan from last yar in the free display of potted plants in place of the great banks of cut flow ers, which formerly graced the rooms. Consequently there was something lack ing in culor, bat from an artistic point of view this was more than compensated for by the beauty of the plants, neatly arranged in pure white jardinieres of basketwork design. The guests entered at the main door of the mansion and, cross ing the lobby, passe 1 into the room, where they bad an opportunity to divest "themselves of their wraps and coats be fore erne ring the bLue room, where the re ceiving party was stationed. The blue ryom, always the prettiest of the White house suite, was beautifully decorated with flowers, H star-shaped white blos som prevailing in such profusion as to charmingly subiue the all-prevaient blue tint of the artificial decorations and fur nishings. In the lobby. Just within the main doorway, was stationed the full Marine band, making a gallant showing In their brilliant scarlet uniforms, and discoursing with aplendid effect a special ly arranged programme of artistic merit. The music began with a grand inaugural march by FancuilH, the leader of the •band. The first to arrive at the execu tive mansion were the ladies of the cab inet, who were to assist Mrs. Cleveland in receiving. They were ushered up stairs, where they removed their wraj>s and were greeted by Mrs. Cleveland. Promptly at 11 o'clock the Marine band ■truck up the inaugural march and the receiving party descended the western staircase. First came Colonel Wilson with Lieutenant GSlmore, then the presi dent and Mrs. Cleveland, and then the members of the cabinet with their ladles. They entered tiie blue r >rn. and for a few moments there was a general ex change of compliments of the season be tween the persons of the room. Mrs. Cleveland was attired In white moire antique, heavily embroidered with silver and full sleeves. Her mother, Mrs. I'er rlne, wore a heliotrope gown ornamented with silver passem* nterie. Mrs. (Jresh.im wore a gown of black and whito sAtin. Black formed mo*-t of 'the skirt wl ! h Wits bordered with whito, satin, and this material also formed the sleeves. Mrs. Carlisle syore gray moire antique trimmed with sable and passementerie. Mrs. I,am>>nt was in buttercup satin, elegantly brocaded in white with a lace pattern. Brown velvet and lace forme i a becoming collarette finish, Mrs. Bis sell wore white satin brocade, with r» waist in a fluffy effect of white chiffon, trimmed with p»*arl and silver passe menterie. Mi.-** Herbert was In a light blue satin, richly brocaded In pink and with finely plaited chiffon frills on th<* bodhe. Mrs. Olrsey wor*" purple l*engal lrse, richly embroidered an l trimmed with lace. Miss Morton wore a toilette of black and white striped moire auJ bnv cad#. wuh point lace, Mrs. Hoke Smith, being i-i poor health, dS l not take part In the reception. A numl>» r of ladies. Including the wives and daughter* of prominent ©ffU-ials an ! persona] friends of Mrs. Cleveland, had been invited to tiike positions behind the line with the receiving party, » that there was a briUiant array of handsome costumes in the room.

The diplomatic corps drifted slowly Into the east room, mingled with the crowd gathered there, and the re ception went on. By rights, the supreme court srhould cocne next, but they were behWed and came in after the other mem bers of the judiciary, ate court of claims, court of appeals ami district judiciary, being in fact preceded fey a number o£ senators and representatives. The number of members of both houses was noted as being unusually small. Hardly more than twenty senators were to be seen. There acre more Republicans than Democrat#- among them. Among those present were Senators Sherman. Tellfcr. Dul> >.3» Mclliersoa, George. Call. Lodge, Wolcott and I'effer, The members of the bouse were scattered generally through the line that followed for the next half hour. Gen. Horatio King: was in the section allotted to ex-cabinet m«n<> bers and ex-ministers of the United States to foreign countries. The army and navy were the only official bodies which came in solid lines, and they were the main part of the exhibition from a spectacular view, with their gald lace guttering through the corridors and their swords clanking martially. There was notabiy large gathering of army officers, no less than threw deportment comnianders marching with their staffs. Several of the higher officials are making their last New Year's round in active service, as they will be relegated to tfc? retired list in the course of the year. Following the ar my, of course, was Gen. Sehofteld with his staff. Gen. Vincent, and Capts. Scbo- Ileld and Bliss. Gens. MvCook, Ruger and Otis followed, attended by their staffs, but Gen.

The uniformed delegation was ended by the marine corps officers, led by Col. Hey wood. At half past twelve a long line of government officials were admitted. It included the regents of the Smithsonian institute, the civil service and interstate commerce commissioners, assistant secretaries of the departments, commissioners of labor and heads of sev eral bureaus. The delegation of war veterans was smaller than usual, but included repre sentatives of the veteran* of the Mexican war, the Loyal Legion „fite G. A. It. and Cnlon Veterans, most ot them wearing their plain blue uniform. Several walked on crutches in the line, and empty sleeves were uumerdus. After these organizations several hun dred people, who had been shivering on the sidewalk In a long line, poured through the White House gates and were marshalled up the steps, two by two. There were all conditions of society, all ages, and nut a few colored people in the array. The venerable members of the Society of Oldest Inhabitants of \Vashin;;t an, w ho never miss thle yearly event, wero some what belated. but secured a place In line.

San Diego, Jan. I.—Capt. Fidelius, of the schooner Azalea, which arrived with lumber yesterday from Taooiwa, recalls the fact that he saw two steam era off Caj»e Flattery on the evening of December 9. which, it is thought, were probably the missing Keweenaw and Mi-'ntviriU, The gate was at its height and St seemed that the ves»sel ho took i > be the Keweenaw had been out side the straits and past Cape Flat tery, but encountering storm had turned back and lay to under the cape. About dusk another steamer, probably the Montsernat, passed down thr v straits am! saluted th? Kew er.aw with three whistles, the later responding with the same number. The steamers ap proached within speaking distance and after some talk between them both turned and went to sea, doubling the cape and passing out of sigtw forever. The Azalea, went out a couple of hours later. The gale was kicking up a terrible sea, the decks were deluged and water flooded the cabin. The deck load shifted and the schooner drifted helplessly nnitll morning, when the captain made out that he was seven miles from Cape Beaje. There were three distinct seas meeting off Platery, according to the skipper, one from the northwest and one alongside from ehe southeast, the later the Stronger, an I the current frem the straits', which, meeting the southeast th?a, raised such a ix inmotion it is a wonder any ves sel lived through it.
