Vice-Preside- nt Morton next delivered a most eloquent address, ded-icating the World's fair, closing thus: "In the name of the government of the United States I hereby dedicate these building and their appurtenances, intended by congress of the United States for use of the World's Colum-bian exposition, to world's prozress in art, in science, in agriculture and ia manufactures. I dedicate them to humanity. God save United States of America." Chicago, Oct. 21. Ia the presence of a hundred thousand people, amid the echoes of the largest chorus assembled In the his-tory of modern times, under the arches of the largest building ever constructod in the history of architecture, the World's Colum-bian exposition was formally dedicated todiiy in the great hall of manufacture and liberal arts by the dignitaries of the nation. The event is one well designed to inspire thn American heart, marking as it does the first international exposition to bo participated in by every civilized nation of the globe. The occasion is equally signifi-cant in being devoid of that pomp and pageantry which have characterized world's fir3 of monarchial Europe. The inaugural ceremonies today are A TRIUMPH TO REPUBLICAN INSTITUTIONS, a triumph greater than all the glories of war. To the parent republic of the western hemisphere had been reserved the distinc-tion of so winning the good will and admir-ation of all the world that kings, emperors, czars, sultans, mikados, khans and shahs have each extended their hand of international fellowship to the Ameri-can people and crown with their benediction and approval the exposition to be held under the patronage of the republic. As the discovery of Columbus marks an epoch in the world's knowledge, so this oc-casion of today marks an epoch in the world's civilization. It means that the petty jealousies of the past have been put away by the enlightened nations of the earth and relegated to the ages that have gone; that upon this neutral ground of the nations men can assemble in fraternal greeting and : recognize that bond of ' common humanity that makes brothers of us all. The fierce rivalry of arms has given place to FRIENDLY COMPETITION OF COMMERCE. The selfish greed for power given way to "a thirst for enlightenment, to a desire for ma-terial and intellectual improvement. The old world is no longer impatient of the progress of the new. W ith bowed heads, the diplomatic repre-sentatives of the crowned rulers of the old world today gavo attentive audience to the ceremonies, and voiced no dissent when the orators of tho hour reviewed the glory of republican institutions, and indicated that the greater progress lay in a government by mauy. But a more eloquent event than the silver-tongue- d orators of the day in at-testing the grandeur of the republic was the modest spectacle of the greatest inter-national exposition of the age ushered into being, not by the command of crowned heads of hereditary authority, but by the acclaim of 100,000 freemen, each man the peer of his fellow and each a sovereign invested with the rights of the republic. THE SCENE PRESENTED by the vast gathering in the dedication building is one never to be forgotten. In manytrespects it was without precedence. Everything was on the order of the superlative. The dedication hall is the largest structure ever erected and in it gathered the largest crowd ever assembled beneath a single roof. In the audience were probably more distin-guished Americans than have ever been seen together on any commemorative oc-casion in -- the history of the republic. Learned jurists from the bench, cabinet offi-cers, governors of state, senators, congress-men, admirals and generals with all their regalia of authority; cardinals, with their in-signia of apostolic faith, scientists, vho are fast wresting from nature the prob-lems of the ages all these gathered here today to do homage to the great, siient student of 400 years ago, who, in his way, was THE PIONEER OF THEM ALL, who led the van of human thought and manly daring, and gave to the world a new continent aud to history an imperceptible reverence for Christopher Columbus. This was the name on every lip, iu every ode and song, that crowned every peroration, that found utterance in the opening praises and was softly breathed in the closing benediction. All did him honor, and time, that ripens and mellows the gratitude of nations after 400 years, gives the greatest homage to his memory and name. As seven Grecian villages claimed the birthplace of Homer, after he had begged his bread throughout their streets and mouldered nnhonored into d'ist, 60 art and science and invention aad religion all vied today in claiming Columbus as their own. At 4 o'clock this morning the cannon out in the darkness on the Lake Front park was set to booming. That was the way in which the notables in the near-b- y hotels were awakened to the fact that the day of dedication had been born and was moving on towards daylight and to doings that should make it live "in history. As the day broke the kie9 cleared and the sun broke bright and red over the eastern lake horizon, bringing assurance to the as-sembled thousands that they should see and hear and shout and GO AWAY UNSOAKED. Business houses closed and everybody was afoot early to participate in the exercises. Hours before the time for them to begin, lines of pilgrims in the magnificent "city of white palaces' to Jackson park began to wend their way. There were ninety thous and chairs in the great manufactories hall and tickets were issued to many thou-sau- d more for admission to the park, but the great mass of unticketed began to line up along Michigan avenue to see the notables of the occasion proceed under military escort down that magnificant thoroughfare to the exposition grounds. Soon after 8 this morning it was clatter of hoof and clanks of sidearms. ALONG MICHIGAN AVENUE troops of the United States cavalry from the military camp in Washington park wore on their way to the Auditorium to escort the notable guests to the dedicatory ceremonies at Jackson park, seven miles away. Behind the galloping troops came pounding along the great avenue batteries of United States artillery. The ramble of wheels, the clatter of harness chains and the occasional shout of the mounted riders woke the peo-ple, who saw to the remembrance that Chi-- ' ' '" '" '. ) cago's great Columbian day was on and here were the foreriders of the pomp that should make it as big a day in local if not in na-tional history as ever occurred. Taking a position near the auditorium, these regulms awaited the APPEARANCE OF THE NOTABLES upon whom they should attend. Shortly after a troop of beautifullv-mounte- d richly-uniforme- d cavalrymen from the state of Xew York clattered in from a side street and took a position .as , escort to Governor Flower. These were fol-lowed in turn by state militiamen from Pennsylvania and other states as escorts to their respective goveruo.s. At 9 o'clock the distinguished men of the occasion entered carriages and 6tarted for the fair grounds. United States troops, ar-tillerymen and other mounted escort took up the march of attendants. At Twenty-nint- h street a halt was made at the residence of President II. N. Higin-botha- m of the World's Pair company, where Vice-Preside- Morton and the joint com, uiittee on ceremonies joined the procession. Following the party's car-riages were members of President Harri-son's cabinet, members of the diplomatic corps in the glitter of their brilliant uni-forms and insignia of office. Then came the members of the supreme court. Mayor Washburne and Hayes. Next followed members of the United States senate and house of representatives and fol-lowing them representatives of the army and navy, including Gen. Schofield, Gen. J. B. Brooke, General Frank Wheaton and Lieu-tenant Commauder J. T. Hutchins of the Uiited States navy. Then a string of car- - rliges containing the governors of states aud territories with their staffs iu the order of their 6tates' entrance into the union. The'i executives of Ohio, Massachusetts. "New York and Iowa was most heartily cheered as they passed. After these came the ora-tors and chaplains, including Bishop Charles II. Fowler of California, Hon. Henry Wat-terso- n of Kentucky, Hon. Chauncey M. Depew of New York, Cardinal Gibbons of Baltimore, Rev. H. C. McCook of Philadel-phia, and Mrs. Sarah Cowell Lemoyne of Boston. Then came the commissioners of foreign governments to the Colum-bian exposition, and then the foreign consuls. Next, in thirty carriages, were the members of the World's Columbian national commission, and then the board of lady managers, headed by Mrs. President Potter Palmer. THEY WERE SALUTED as they passed by a general raising of hats by the multitude. Then came representa- tives of eleven of the thirteen original states. This part of the procession - was heartily cheered. After them ten carriages contained the board of direc-tors of the World's Columbian exposition with their officers. After these the manag- ers of the United States exhibit at the fair. Then seven carriages containing the sixteen chiefs of the departments in the exposition and next the staff of the directors of works in eighteen carriages alone with the architects of the various exposition buildings. Last came, as a civic escort, the city council of Chicago on the route from Thirty-fift- h street, by way of the Grand boulerard and Midway Plaisance to the fair grounds. AT WASHINGTON PARK On the way down the troops encamped there, regular and sta'e, formed by brigades in lines of march, and as the federal repre- sentatives neared the park, a presidential twenty-on- e guns was fired by the artillerv, while the troops stood at "present arms' The military display was most imposing. Two regiments from Ohio, one from Iowa were stationed on Midway Plaisance and three regiments of Illinois militia. THE DEDICATION. Programme of the Way as Carried Oat to Fall.

' 0 ..'1 ' ' - ' DEPEW'8 ORATION. A Saperb Tribute to tho Accomplishments of Four Centuries. This day belongs not to America, but to the world. The results of the event it commemo-rates are the heritage of the peoples of every race and clime. We celebrate the emancipation of man. The preparation was the work of ai most countless centuries, the realization was the revelation of one. The cross on Calvary was hope; the cross raised on San Salvador was op-portunity. But for the first Columbus would never have sailed; but for the second, there would have been no place for the planting, the nurture and the expansion of civil and reliplous liberty. Aacieut history is a dreary record of unstabla civilizations. Each reached its zenith of material splendor, and perished. The Assyrian, Persian, Egyptian, Grecian and Roman empires were proofs of the possibilities and limitations of man for conquest and Intel-lectual development. Their destruction involved a sum of misery and relapse which made their creation rathor a curse than a blessing. Force was the factor iu the government of the world when Christ was born, and force was the sole source and exercise of authority both by church and state when Columbus sailed from Pales. The wise men traveled from the east towards the west under the guidance of the Star of Bethlehem. The spirit of the equality of all men before God and the law, moved westward from Calvary with its revolutionary Influence upon old institutions, to the Atlantic ocean. ui carried it westward across the 6eas. The emigrants from England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales, from Oermany und Holland, from Sweden and Dfnniark, from 1 ranee and Italy have, under i(a guidance and inspiration, moved west, and gain wet, building states and founding cities until the l'acitlc limited tlieir march.

Tho anarchy and chaos which lollowed the breaking up of t:ie Koman empire necessarily produced the feudal system, 'ine people pre-ferring slavery to annihilation by robber chiefs, became the vassals of territorial lords. The relgn of physical force is one of perpetual strug-gle for the mastery. Power which rests upon the sword neither shares nor limits its authority. The king destroyed the lords, and the monarchy succeeded feudalism. Neither of these insti-tutions considered or consulted the people. They had no part but to suffer or die in tnis mighty strite of ma-te- rs for the mastery.

With a ringing peroration Mr. Strode closed his argument for the night, and at 10 o'clock the court adjourned until Saturday morning. MR. CRITGHLOW RETURNS. lie Is Confident That Irvine Will be Ac-quitted An Error Corrected. E. B. Critchlow, who has been attending the trial of his friend, W. II. Irvine, at Lincoln, Neb., returned home this morning. To a Times reporter the gentleman the utmost confluence on the result of the trial. Irvine's friends expect the jury to return a verdict of not guilty in a few minutes after the case is submitted. Irvine's testimony produced a very favor-able impression on every one who heard it. He was frauk and made no effort to con-ceal anything connected" with the tragedy. One mistake contained iu the telegraphic re-- , port was where Irvine was quoted as saying that his wife excused herself by saying that other ladies living in Salt Lake and friends of hers had done the same thing. As a mat-ter of fact, he testified that his wife gave him the names of two iedies in Indiana, mutual friends of theirs, who had been dire-lic- t, and whose husbands had taken them back. Irvine told Mr. Critchlow privately that his wife in no way cast any reflections upon any woman in Salt Lake or in Lincoln. One of the strongest points brought out in the evidence for the defense was the testimony of one Jackson, who stated that he saw Montgomery reel out of the dining-room- , and was struck by the asrony shown in his face. An iustHQt later Irvine came out and the look of suffering in his face was so in-tense tha the witness' attention was at-tracted from Montgomery to him. This, Mr. Critchlow said, "was the kind of testi-mony that was introduced as to Irvine's mental condition, and it indicates that it was of the strongest kind. Judge Towers is hand!iughis part of the case admirably. IRVINE WAS 'fi In Slaying- - the Despoiler of His Home BY VIRTUE OF THE DIVINE AND MORAL LAW. Montgomery Was a Cheap Sacrifice to Justice FROM THE MOMENT HE VIOLATED HIS FRIEND'S CONFIDENCE. That Is tho Powerful Plea of t3ie le-IVii- se to the Jury, in Which the liolJ Outrage of t3ie libertine i;i tiie I'rfsiMoe of littie F!os5e Is Vividly lepicted Arguments Will Sic Keumed Tomorrow. Lincoln--, Xeb., Oct. 21. Special. At 4 o'clock yesterday Hon. Jesse B. Strode of Lincoln continued his address for the de-fense and until 5 o'clock there was a vindi-cation of defendant's actions, up to the time of meeting his wife in Chicago, which had been attacked by Adams as a premeditation. Such an excoriation of their efforts has seldom if ever been heard in this court room. At the hour named Mr. Strode asked fur an adjournment until the evening session, as this was his first uppearance since recovering from severe ill-ness. He closed with the ringing assertion "that the man who would use the name of his sister to accomplish the ruin of his friend's wife deserves t- - Skilled." Immedi-ately after adjournmcr .,' the ladies ' FAIRLY. SfKKOCN'DED MR. IRVINE, 'and after au introduction expressed kind words of sympathy, more than one thanking him for acting as he did on the fatal morn-ing. This reception was shared in by Flossie, who remained by her father's side nutil he left the courtroom. v Long before the lights were lit for the evening session the audience commenced to assemble, and before the hour of opening court there was not a foot of standing room. Over a thousand were present. Seldom a more select assembhiga is found in Lincoln than that which filled this beautiful and brightly lighted courtooora. After the jury tiled into the box Mr. Irvine, in company with Mr. F. T. lliatt and"judge O. W. Pow-ers of Salt Lake, entered and took seats among counsel. Flossie soou followed, and sfttr climbing to her father's knee, sat quietly listening with both arms around her lather's neck. Amidst a most Drofund si-lence, Mr. Strode made his argument, dis-tricting the charges, imputations and insinu-ations of Adams, after which he minutely reviewed the evidence in the case. The licentious and unholy desires of Montgomery were shown up in their MOST GLARING AND IIIOEOC3 CHARACTER. The heuest and just, yet generous, con-sideration of the libertine by the defendant, when he thought at all of Montgomery, was brought out to show the real desire of the defendant, as it is in evidence tiiat he never thought of him except wi:h the idea of, "Oh, how could you, my friend, have done it after I was such a good friend to you as I have been." As the speaker progressed aud referred to what Adams had designated as the "deadly aim," he said: "It is a most singular fact, gentlemen of the jury aud counsel for the prosecution, too, that when the man who is sceaiug to avenge the wrongs of his family upon the adulter-ous scavenger who has ruiui-- hi hv'.iic, his aim is always fatal. At otie p ,nt in the argument Mr. Strode referred to the fact that Montgomery was in Texas up to the d iy prior to the killing. To this conns I for prosecution objected, as this fsr-- had not been brought out in ti e testimony. A dis-cussion followed 'n wLu-- Mr. Strode, in a leud voice, exclaimed: "", it is a fact, but if you are afraid of fact then I won't 'cfer to it.". "We are not afraid of facts," bawled out MeCdllough. "If you are not, what are you kicking at?" answered Mr. Strode. This brought forth a round of applause, tut when the baliffs succeeded in securing quiet Judge Hall said: "Ladies and gentle-men, this is a court of justice aud not a theater, and I will have to tell you that if there is a repetition of this applause for cither of counsel I will have to order the room cleared." In a low voice Mr. Strode recited to the jury the scenes in the cham-ber of II. tel Grace, pathetically drawing the picture of little Flossie arousing from her slumbers aud XJ1SCOVEKINO MONTGOMERY IX UNHOLY RE-LATION with her mother. The denunciation which followed this review was a caustic and em-phatic endorsement of defendant's action, and the bold assertion of "Gentlemen, if I hud been the victim of Charles Edward Montgomery's licentiousness, I say candidly tli.it I would openly and above board have hilled him." The silence which followed this ringing assertion could almost be felt. He then reviewed the divine law on the crime of adultery, and said that from the very moment Montgomery violated the eunctity of his friend's home his death knell was sounded. Alluding to , the Banctlty of American homes, he said they have to be kept invio-late, and if the defendant had, as the prose-cution claimed, deliberately come here and shot Ed Montgomery, he did right, for the man who would not fight for his home is ntt worthy of having a home. The death of Montgomery was a cheap sacrifice to save the young mother from the fearful abyss of adultery, and who is more fit to put the adulterer to death than the husband of that young mother. Notwithstanding this counsel 'for the prosecution will say a murder or manslaughter has been committed. The bold effrontery, meanness and infamy of Montgomery in indulging his lecherous de-tir- es in the presence of the daughter of his . I caid, Get out of here, you s of a b 1 You have no business here.' Williams thea jumped out of bed and took up a position in one corner of the room. He held one hand behind him and the other was extended in a threatening manner towards me. I said, 'You can't use a gun on me!' and with that I jumped towards him. As I did bis hand came from behind his back and he made a slash at me with the razor, catching me on the right cheek. I fought him, but he kept cutting away until I threw him on the bed, caught him by his wrists, took the razor from him, and then, as he kept fighting, started in to finish him." HI9 NARROW ESCAPE. He was then taken into the operating; room, w here Drs. Meacham and PInkerton proceeded to make a thorough examination of his wounds. The one over the right carotid artery is the most serious, and how it escaped being severed is a source of won-der to the surgeons. They anticipate no serious results, but are of the opinion that . tho wounds will disfigure the patient lor life. Williams was found in room 33 of the Har-ris buildin?, which has of late become a no-torious retort for street-walker- s, prostitute and no less chaste men. It is owned by a prominent merchant, who having eyes, see not, and ears, hears not, although be con-ducts his business on the same thorough- fare and within hearing and view of the cita-del of Yice and profligacy. WILLIAMS IS STILL GAME. He was alsa in charge of an officer, and his response to the reporter's inquiry as to whether or not he desired to tell his side of the story was an emphatic negative. Whoa given a synopsis of Jobes' story, he ex-claimed, "He is a d liarl" and seemed to be offended because Jobes claimed to have bested him in the combat and wrested the razor from him. "I tell you," said be meaningly, "if I had had a pi6tol he would have never got in. I would have killed him." "WHO THII ABE. The woman in the case is well known In this city and Ogden. She lived for several years in the Weber metropolis, and her mother still resides there. She has a mar-ried sister living near Liberty park in this city, whom she occasionally visits, but It is not known that her people are aware of the life she has been living. She ia a petite blonde, about 20 years of age, and evidently of a very sympathetic temperament. Williams has bad a close call for his life. The physicians worked on him for hours before they could stop the profuse hem-orrhages from his wounds, and at times he was so weak that he could scarcely move. He is apparantly about twenty-fiv- e years of age, has been a resident of this city for a year or more and is popular with his associ-ates in the sporting fraternity.

He also claims that he whipped Williams about six weeks ago on account of the girl and later was compelled to perform the same office for a friend of Williams who assailed him in the Tunnel. He is a plucky youth, and boldly admits that be was the aggressor in the latest and most sanguinary affray of bis life. THE LANDLOKD'3 STATEMENT. ' - Landlord Taylor of the Harris building de-clares that the woman is noVa roomer in the bouse. He says that Williams came there early last evening, engaged the room for tile " night and stated that he would return about midnight. At that hour he entered the room, but the woman was not with him. "She must have slipped up after him," said he, "for he came in alone. It is an unfortunate occurrence, but the house should not suffer for it." AN UXXTJCKT ROOK. ' Room 33 has been very prolific of sensa-- tions. Several months a well-know- n cyprian named Myrtle occupied it, and at one time took a dose of morphine with suicidal intent. Her life was saved after hours of heroic treatment. Later it was occupied by two men who also indulged in a cutting affray, but as the results were not very serious the case was never ventilated in the courts. A CARNIVAL MOD. A Desperate and Brutal Cutting: Affray IN THE riOTED HARRIS BUILDING THIS MORNING. "Bert" Jobes, a Jehu, and "Jim" "Williams, a Sport, FIGHT FOR THE LOVE OF AN ABANDONED WOMAN.

A desperate and bloody fight took place in room 3:3 in the Harris block on State street this mominc, the combatants being Albert C. Jobes, a hack driver, and Jim Williams, an employe of the Gaiety gambling rooms on Main street, and the causa a woman. Her name is Emma Hanson, a young and pre-possessing nymph of the pave, who failed, as many of her sex have often done and will continue to do, to dispose of an old love be-fore basking in the sunshine of a new. It was about 2:30 o'clock this morning when the roomers in the building named were aroused from their slumbers by the BLOOD-CCRDLIX- Q AXD AGONIZED CRIES of the woman and the sounds of a terrible conflict coming from the room on whose threshold she stood as she wildly called for help. The night clerk was the first to respond. He found two men struggling like demons in the bed and the glitter of steel showed that it was a fight to the death. Blood was every-where. It covered the men, bespatted the bed and trickled to the floor in pools. Every-thing in the room was upset, chaos reigned supreme, and despite the turmoil caused by the woman's cries and the hurrying feet of the startled occupants of the house, the men fought on. 'With both, it was a case of life and death. . - ONE WAS FIGHTING TO KILL, the other not to be killed. Not a word was said by either as they tossed to and fro. Neither could see plainly, for blood blinded their eyes and trickling down their faces en-shrouded them in a mask of carmine. Fin-ally from sheer exhaustion the struggle ceased. Jobes staggered to his feet, a razor In his right hand, and patiently waited the coming of an officer. Williams also essayed to rise, but every movement caused the blood to well from fearful wounds on his face and neck, and be fell back unconscious. Officer Matthews was the first officer to arrive on the sanguinary scene, and, after calming the excited household, dispatched messengers for physicians. Dr. Meacham, the city physician, and Dr. Marshall were soon busily engaged in sewing up THE FEARFUL WOCNDS OF THE RAZOR. Both men are marked for life, as terrible scars will be a constant reminder to them of their bloody and desperate quarrel for a woman's love. Jobes' wounds consist of a cut soveral inches in length immediately over the right carotid artery, one which divided both lips, one along the right cheek bone, one over the left temple and another immediately be-low the chin near the aesophagus. Williams' wounds consist of a cut which extends from almost the apex of his head en the right side down over the right temple and along the right cheek, ending in a curve un-der his chin, while several unimportant cuts on his neck attest the ferocity with which he was assailed. After Jobes' wounds had been dressed and sewed up by Dr. Marshall he was removed to St. Mary's hospital, but owing to the great loss of blood Williams had experienced it was deemed advisable to keep him in his room. THE WOMAN'S 8TORT. Owing to the condition of the men officers were placed as guards over them, and the woman was removed to the city jail. There she was interviewed by a Times representa-tive, who, although she was greatly excited, succeeded in securing a true history of the case. She and Jobes were lovers, but owing to his jealous uature, their unholy alliance was not a happy one. He often upbraided her for her supposed liking for other men, and at times vented his spleen upon her while he was crossed in business mat-ters or Fortune frowned upon him. About six months ago sfce left him and soon sought love in other and more pleasant fields. Finally she met Williams, and for months past, according to her story, they HAVE BEEN OX "FRIENDLT" TERMS. This morning, while she and Williams were in bed, a noise was heard at their door, a key turned in the lock and the next moment Jobes stood before them. "Get out of here!" he exclaimed, and Williams' response was to jump from the couch and rush towards him. Then the struggle began, and with a shriek the woman, clad only in her night dress, rushed into the hallway and beg an to call wildly for help. "I don't like Jobes," she said in conclu-sion, "but Jim has always been kind to me." Tears welled into her eyes, and with a sob she exclaimed: "Oh, I hope he won't die, for he was good to me!" "Anyway, Jobes began it," she said with a saucy toss of her head, "and please do what you can for Williams," was her part-ing emark. jobes' story. St. Mary's hospital was next visited. The reporter found Jobes, with his head com-pletely swathed in bandages, sleeping heavily. He was lying on his back, his shift completely covered with blood, while from the oriflce in the bandage which had been made to permit of his breathing hune a fragment of coagulated blood. The officer in charge said that he had beeu oblivious to his surrounding for over two hours. Dr. Fowler finally awoke him, and he re-sponded to his salutation by saying that he "felt first-rate.- " r He declined at first to talk to the reporter, saying: "I do not care to talk, because I do not think It is the proper time, and be-sides it hurts me to talk." lie designated the nature of his wounds by drawing his finger along the bandages im-mediately over the line of cuts made by the razor, and then closed his eyes as though to sigDify the interview was at an end. HE WA8 THE AG6BESSOB. Later, he became more communicative.' "I entered the room by a pass-ke- " said he, Vnd found Williams ia bed with the girl. COMSTOCK TROUBLES. A Kinsr Is Said to Be Kunning- - the Mine lor Its Own Benefit. SENATOR JONES AT THE HEAD. Stockholders of the Consolidated Vir-ginia Claim that He Cannot Be Trusted and They Propose to Bring the IMrectors to a I,esral Account-ing What the Property Yields The Xew Officers Elected. San Francisco, Oct. 21. Special. There is trouble ahead for the directors of Consolidated California & Virginia Mining company of Virginia City, Nevada. It has been a public secret for years, at least alle-gations have frequently been made, that a ring is profiting from working the ores from the property by the Comstock Mine & Milling . company. Senator John P. Jones owns a third interest in that corpora-tion. Stockholders of the Con. Virginia claim that it was shown in the Hale & Xorcross suit that Senator Jones can't be trusted to handle their product. The stockholders, who are leagued to-gether under the name of the Mining Stock association, ctiarge that the Consolidated California and Virginia mine is not managed iu the interests of the shareholders of the company, but to the profit of the Coinsiock company. In proof they declare that the 54,8l)S tons of ore extracted from August 1, 1S1K), to August 1, 1S92, accord-ing to the pulp assay of the company of .23.37 a ton, should have brought $1,282,707.08. Th; Comstock re-turned of this pulp in bullion ouly f9.87.G24, retaining $2ys,143. They received for milling 54,893 tons of ore at ft', grold a ton, $329,388, equal in bullion to 375,502.32; making their receipts $(570,o45.32, bullion value, out of $ 1,28J,7G7.03 worth of ore, or more than one-ha- lf of the pulp assay. The company com-menced the fiscal year with $98,374.94 in bank. It crushed over 55,000 tons of ore, worth nearly ?25 a ton, and at the end of the fiscal year was reported in debt. The following officers were elected for the year: President, Charles II. Fish; vice-preside- George li. Wells; secretary, A. W. Havens; directors, II. H. Havens, Con O'Connor, W. S Lyle; superintendent, A. B. Lyman. Superintendent Lyman made a long re-port on the output and condition of the mine and how it had been worked. The re-port showed that the Comstock company had returned $974,341. fc9 on the pulp fur-nished. This huiiion carried f 545,789.73 in gold and i42$,554. 10 in silver. IN SALT LAKE CITY. Eight Thousand Children ITarch in Procession to the Tabernacle. REVIEWED DY THE MAYOR. "Old ;iory" Is Ran to the Masthead Amidst Cheers From the (- - A. K. Patriotic Hocgrs and Patriotic. Speeches Iaue From Patriotic ISenrts. and Fall From Patriotic laps The Afternoon Concert. Salt Lake had its Columbian celebra-tion toda3', and it was oue well worthy the memory of the world-findin- g Genoese. This morning flags were flying from a hundred staffs iu the business portion of the city, and at 9:30 the school children com-menced gathering ou upper Main street. They came in droves from all over the city, and wore quickly formed in lino by their teachers. At 10:30 the com-mand to march was. given, and the children passed down Main street between solid banks of spectators. The procession was headed by a platoon of mounted police, fol-lowed by the Liberal drain corps. There came the G. A. K. and the Dcutialter band. The school children came next, each divi-sion bearing a large flag and many sections had juvenile drum corps of their own. Then were eight thousand pupils ia line, and they seemed to enjoy the parade immensely. The line of march was down Main street to Sec-ond South, thence west to West Temple, thence east to Richards avenue and north to the tabernacle. The reviewing stand was stationed at the head of Richurds avenue and on it were Mayor Gaskin, the members of the board of education aud prominent citi-zens. As the children passed they gave a salute. The living stream rCt'KKD INTO THE TABERXACLE, and soon both the lower part of the house as well as the gallery were completely filled. The big organ was draped with the stars and stripes and the red, white and green of Italy. The Tabernacle drum corps took seats on the north siae, with the Liberal drum corps on the south side. These organizations opened the proceedings with a coupie of lively airs, which pleased the little ones mightily. The Kepubiicau drum corps was also in attendance and occupied the position in front of the stand. THE IHOGHAMME. At 10:10 Professor M. R. Malone of the high school read the president's procla- mation. Miss Alice Rowe next read the governor's proclamation, after which "Old Glory" was run to the masthead, and the members of the G. A. R. led in giving three cheers for the flag. The entire assemblage then joined in singing "America," directed by Professor G. C. Young. Prayer was next offered by Dr. Utter, after which the pupils and audience sang "The Song of Columbus Day." Herbert Hills, a pupil of the high school, then delivered an address on "The Meaning of Four Centuries," which was the finest es-timate of the results following the diseovery of America that has been heard here, which is saying not a little, when the number of addresses that have been made on the sub-ject during the past two weeks is consid-ered. An ode, "Columbia's Banner," was next rendered in excellent styl by Misses Iletta Watson, Josie Morris, Florence Simpson and Lizzie Smith. "The Bark of Faith," a poem describing the voyage of Columbus, was recited by Master George Bywater, and was followed with another recitation on Columbus by Miss Ethel Dean. A song, 'Columbus," was then sung in splendid style by the school children. Hon. J. M. Bowman was down for an ad-dress, but was unable to be present, owing to sickness, and his place was taken by e. w. TATLOCK, who said that more than thirty years ago he learned to obey the commands of his superior officers. The school children were doing that same thing in the schools, and upon obedience depended their success. It seemed to him that there had never been such a gathering of school children in any city in the Union, and the signs of these young children and these waving flags were enough to arouse the patriotism of every man. The members of the G. A. R. who were present were not more thrilled at the signs of the stars and strips floating over Vicksburg than by the sight which they wit-nessed today. MAYOR BASKIX. The last address was by Mayor Bask in, who said it was with a heart swelling with emotion that he stood before the great as-semblage of children. These little ones re-minded the , men and the women of the responsibilities devolving upon them. Theso children must be prepared to perform the duties in the future which today devolved upon the men and women. When he looked into the sea of faces it occurred to him that one of the most important things to be looked after was the health of these children. Sanitary condi-tions should be carefully looked to. He believed that from this day on, whenever iUwas necessary to raise funds for a new schoolhouse it would be raised with less ditliculty than in the past. In the fu-ture, too, he was satisfied that sanitary regu- lations would he looked after more care-fully. The progress of the country since its discovery was briefly sketched by the speaker, who in conclusion expressed his pleasure at being present. President Woodruff pronounced the bene-diction and the great audience dispersed. AFTERNOON CONCERT. Three Thooiind People Erjoy a Delight- ful Programme.

Washington, Oct 2L Dr. Gardner visited the bedside of Mrs. Harrison this morning, and afterwards said to the associated press the end was merely a auestion of time, but whether it will be hours or days can only be determined by events. He said the disease is now making rapid pragress in the left lung and the patient is growing weaker. Pulse feeble, respiration, 50; tem-perature, 103. Coughing spells are more irequent, followed by periods of great exhaustion, from which she rallies with ex-treme difficulty.

He reports that business is rather quiet throughout that sec-tion. The political situation is badly mixed up, owinir to the efforts of the Fopulist6, but Mr. Bauragarten thinks that both Cali-fornia and Oregon are safely Kepubiicau. Things are unusually quite in San Fran-cisco, and he found that the more prominent business men Of that city are beginning to take a lively interest in the project to build a new railroad through to Salt Lake, and Mr. Baumgarten's opinion is that it will be carried through. He did what he could to further the project, but was disappointed in not finding Colonel Trurubo at home, that gentleman having been called to Washington. Colonel Trumbo will probably be through here in a few days. AN EARLY MORNING BLAZE. The Fashion Restaurant on Stat Street Damaged to the Amount of $ 1.50O. The Fashion restaurant, on State street, owned by IL S. Krigbaum, was damaged by ' fire shortly after last midnight to the extent ' of 11500, but as the place was fully insured, the boniface is not shedding any tears on ac-count of the damage done. The blaze orig-inated in a partition dividing' the restaurant proper from the working room, but how, has not yet been determined. The fire de-partment did good work or the loss would have been much greater. The building ia owned by Cline & Little, and the loss will be covered by $400, the damage to them beinjf ia the main from smoke and water. - - - Newton's Latest Eacapade.

It seems that a short time before his departure he went to J. Odson and borrowed $50, giv-ing a chattle mortgage oc a piano and bed-room set.
