Having: succeeded In transmitting signals considerably more than half-way across the Atlantic by wireless telegraph, Marconi is Justified in anticipating ultimate success. The reported discovery of rich gold fields In a portion of Canada within fifty miles of the Canadian Pacific Railway may possibly be true, but it savors strongly of an attempt to boom the road. The Chicago Chronicle, a Democratic paper, and really the only one worth the name in that city, is not in accord with the Carter Harrison regime, but it says that "we are in the Philippines to remain." Many Democrats are not so emphatic on that point. Senator Hanna scarcely ever speaks nowadays outside of the Senate' without eraI hasizing his earnest desire to bring about a better understanding' between capital and labor. It may be added that no other man of the time has done more in this direction than he. Host people will be thankful to Senator Frye. president of the Senate, for his ruling that senators in contempt are under suspension, even if be did revise it later, since suspension involves silence, and silence only for a day or two is a fearful punishment for Tillman. The rivers and harbors appropriation bill, as reported to the House, "appropriates jl.fjki.Mii for new improvements and J3C,700,- (.) fur continuing contracts, making a total of f.7o,ono. No doubt the bill carries many extravagant and some useless items, but under the system of log-rolling they will all st through. Senator Frye has at length got his shipsubsidy bill before the Senate as unfinished business. The logical order would be to get to the proposition to enter into reciprocal relations with Cuba first, since, if Congress is to make no provision to increase cur foreign trade it will be useless to increase the number of ships to carry our merchandise. The bill which the Senate passed on Saturday looking to the Irrigation of the deserts came to a vote without discussion, all the senators being in favor of it. It proTides that the proceeds of all of the lands eold la the States and Territories to be benefited shall be devoted to the construction of irrigation works under the direction of the secretary of the interior. The annexation of Cuba should not be seriously discussed as long as any United States troops remain in the island. Even if done, with the consent of the Cubans before cur military occupation of the island is ended, it would be sure to be misrepresented and misconstrued. The plain duty an the only honorable course for the United States is to withdraw its troops, give Cuba complete independence with reciprocity of trade, and leave the annexation question for the future. The annual report of a farmers co-operative society at Roekwrll. Ia., shows that last year it handled and marketed products to the value of $U,'J0l at an expense of JUCn. It is claimed that the amount saved by 'the society during the year ended July 9, 1D01. on the basis of the volume of business done, was $om which would give Its six hundred members an average of $1,103 more than they would have received If they had marketed their products in the old way. The figures illustrate the American talent for organization and are otherwise iistructive. Some recent statistics regarding the world's output of gold show that the total In 1S?1 was .901,S77 ounces, worth J135.5:6,172; In the output was 14.000,143 ounces, valued at S337.1M,!. The output in lOuO was not as large as in lSltf. because the war In South Africa closed productive mines In that country, but In all other gold-produc-lr.g countries there was an Increase in 1300 over The most remarkable growth has been In America, which Includes all the mines on this continent. During 1S31 the American output was 2.150.207 ounces, worth t .607,4:5; during 1?jO the output was 6,101.$U ounces, valued at J144.Coi.545. It is this Increase of more than three to one in ten years which Insures the permanence of the fold standard. If the international sugar conference fnall come to the conclusion which has been foreshadowed by recent dispatches the fcoury feature of all the European coun-

tries producing beet sugar will be abolished, j As these bounties were imposed in recent years to stimulate the export of sugar by enabling those who receive the bounty to undersell other sugars in the markets of the world, there Is reason to believe that unless the stock shall be very large when the nonbounty agreement goes into effect the prices of sugar may be a little higher. The abolition of bounties will favor Cuba and other cane-sugar countries, as the bounty prevented the selling of those sugars In the markets at as low prices as the bounty-paying countries. Tin: iiirecomilaiilem. For some days past the press dispatches from Berlin have been bringing pleasant accounts of the friendly expressions of the German rress regarding the reception of Prince Henry in this country. Yesterday's dispatches showed something of the other side. The expressions of the Socialist press are somewhat of a surprise in their undlscriminating malignity towards the governments both of Germany and the United States. Americans have been led to believe that the Socialists in Germany were very different from Anarchists, but the tone of the Socialist press hardly justifies the distinction, for they attack the governments and institutions of both countries with equal malignity. As the Socialists claim to represent the common people, and especially the working classes, they are consistent in attacking monarchical Institutions and ruling classes, but why should they include the government and people of the United States In their abuse? Thi3 country is sneeringly alluded to as the "Dollar Republic," and the captains of industry who gave the prince a splendid ban.juet In New York are called "Dollar Majesties." Instead of recognizing the successful heads of great industries as representative types of American citizenship showing the possibilities that are open to individuals under republican government, the Socialist papers evidently hate them because they are successful. As the dispatch puts it, "The Socialists revile everything about the trip from their double hatred of royally and wealth." The prince Is abused because he represents the royal family, and the Americans are abused because out o their abundant means and real good feeling they have given the prince a generous and hospitable reception. This is a truly malignant spirit and close akin to anarchism, if not the very thing. From absolutism to republicanism, from a hereditary monarchy to government by the people is a long range, but the Socialists seem to be equally opposed to both forms of government and do not find anything between the two extremes to suit

them. If they had been smart they might have made a good point against monarchical government out of the prince's reception in this country. If they had any political sense they would have used the present occasion to emphasize the wonderful progress of the United States under republican government and would have reminded the German people how helpless they would be in such circumstances and how dependent on the government. They would have told their readers that in his traveis Frince Henry saw millions of sovereigns but scarcely a soldier, and that wherever he went he was confronted by the magnificent achievements of free men under free institutions. Instead of this they abuse both governments and both peoples with indiscriminate rage. The Socialists have Ehown that there is no good reason for their existence. They are irreconcilablcs and no good. When Chairman Payne, of the ways and means committee, in answer to a question, told the House caucus that an ad valorem duty of 57 per cent, would yet remain on raw sugar when the 20 per cent, concession to Cuba should be made the Journal mildly questioned the accuracy of his figures because It was satisfied that the duty on raw sugar is much higher than 77 per cent. Some figures have since been published which show that Mr. Payne was in error. A recent importation of Cuban sugar, valued at $1.7Si per hundred pounds on board at Havana, paid a duty of J1.6SU per one hundred pounds in New York. . This is a duty of 94 per cent, ad valorem, and 20 per cent, cut off would leave a duty of 71 per cent.. Instead of 57, as Mr. Payne stated. It may be fairly added that if William McKinley or Nelson Dingley were chairman of the ways and means commit tee neither would have made such a mistake In regard to the duty on one. of the necessaries of life. But if a concession of 2) per cent, on the duty should cause a general fall of the sugar duty, as the beet sugar lobby boldly declares, there would be left a duty of 74 per cent, ad valorem Now, if any industry cannot live In this country with the advantage of a 74 per cent, duty it does not deserve protection. particularly when to maintain that duty the consumers must pay it. It does not seem possible that there are sensible men who will believe that a cut In the duty on less than two-fifths of the Imported sugar can affect the duty on the thrce-lifth3 upon which the duty remains unchanged. The hostility to the fair treatment of Cuba Is unreasonable. The New York Press has referred to those Republicans in Congress who favor a liberal policy of reciprocity with Cuba as "administration Republicans." So they are, and they are willing to be known as administration Republicans. The administration of the late President McKinley favored reciprocity and liberal treatment for Cuba. His dying words were for such a policy. President Roosevelt has continued that policy as his own. It is the progressive policy of the Republicans who are the Judicious advocates of a protective rolicy, and it is advocated by every Republican who has a national reputation. Governor Stanley, of Kansas, president of the Western Reciprocity League, has called a conference to meet at Chicago with a view of bringing Congress to a sense of its responsibility to the West in the matter of reciprocity with Cuba. The announcement leads the Nebraska State Journal to remark that "it is time for the constituents of a lot of these representatives who are going daft on the beet-sugar and tobacco business to make themselves heard. There are other Interests In the West besides a few beet-sugar mills and the tobacco trust. McKinley's last utterance Is still ringing in the ears of the country." The statement In several papers that Governor Durbln wore a military uniform to the reception in honor of Indiana by the officials of the Charleston exposition is untrue. Governor Durbln Is as careful to observe the proprieties of official life as any man can be, and he is too well in

formed regarding them to appear in a military uniform. The Kansas City Star prints in the same column the peroration of Secretary Hay In his eulogy upon the lato President McKinley and that of Mr. Blaine on a similar occasion to the memory of Fresident Gar

field. The comparison Is an interesting one. The closing sentences of Mr. Hay were as follows: There Is not one of us but feels prouder of his native land because the august flfure of Washington presided over its beginnings; no one but vows it a tenderer love because Lincoln poured out his blood for it; no one but must feel his devotion for his country renewed and Kindled when he remembers how McKinley loved, revered and served it. showed in his life how a citizen should live, and in his last hour taught us how a gentleman could die. Mr. Blaine's oration on Garfield ended with the following sentences: As the end drew near his early craving for the sea returned. The stately mansion of power had been to him the wearisome hospital of pain, and he begged to be taken from his prison walls, from its oppressive, stifling air, from its homelessness and Its hopelessness. Gently, silently, the love of a great people bore the pale sufferer to the longed-for healing of the sea, to live or to die, as God should will, within sight of the heaving billows, within sound of its manifold voices. With wan, fevered face, tenderly lifted to the cooling breeze, he looked out wistfully upon the ocean's changing wonders; on its far sails; on its restless waves, rolling shoreward to break and die beneath the noonday sun; on the red clouds of evening, arching low to the horizon; on the serene and shining pathway of the stars. Let us think that his dying eyes read a mystic meaning which only the rapt and parting soul may know. Let us believe that In the silence of the receding world he heard the great waves breaking on a farther shore and felt already upon his wasted brow the breath of the eternal morning. The Star pronounces the first of these passages the work of an essayist, while the latter it describes as the work of an orator. Mr. Hay's words may be regarded as comparatively cold and formal, while those of Mr. Blaine pulsate with life and emotion. Both men did their best in their own way, and the best of both is the best their times furnished. It is kiown that the peroration of Mr. Blaine was n,ct the product of an hour, but the result of many hours' study and re-writing. THE HUMORISTS. In Passing. Baltimore News.

LACK OF INTROSPECTION

SO MI CH. PRACTICABILITY THAT IT BECOMES 1 31 PRACTICAL. Line of Thought Followed ly Rev. C. 1'. Bacon in Sermon at Roberts Park Church. The Rev. Dr. Bacon, pastor of Roberts Park Church, at the morning service, yesterday, delivered a sermon taken from John Ii. 24 to 15. Dr. Bacon said in part: "There is not enough introspection today. We Ilee the mystical. We praise the practical until we have become Impractical, so it will be valuable for us to-day to read what is in us guided by the profound fact that Christ 'heeded not that any should testify of man, for Hi knew what was in man.' "The mind of man was an open book to Christ. He read it as we read the clearly printed type. The mask of a face was perfectly transparent to His eye. Like when we look through the most faultless glass, so His eye penetrated the thoughts, feelings and volitions of those about Him. 'He knew all men.' Man was to Him like an open-case watch. He looked into the Inner works, lie needed not the circumlocution of words to get at thoughts. He was not simply a wise guesser, nor a mindreader, but He knew men as the watchmaker knows the watch which he has made. "So Christ revealed the spirit of man to man. He dug it out of the debris of formal worship of His day. So materializing is formal worship that men lost sight of their spiritual nature. Their conception (X relationship to God was a relation of bodily action of hands, feet and tongue, to God, not of affection and devotion their feet coming so often to the .temple on feast occasions; of their hands In tithing and offering, and of their tongue in singing psalms and saying prayers. Judaism had become ritualistic and soulless. The soul thus obscured was lost in the forms which have expressed it. Christ came to reveal spirit in its capacities, its obligations, its privleges. He taught that piety consisted in the attitude of the affections, the thoughts, the soul, to 'God. He taught that there were 'works' in the watch and that the hands on the dial showed whether they were In order. So In every age where worship has degenerated to formality and the soul lost sight of, Christ has called the spirit back to a recognition of itself and its rights. "Christ revealed that the spirit is the seat of His kingdom. 'The kingdom of God Is within.' It is frequently said: 'Jesus, knowing their thoughts.' What a man to come into the presence of! The woman of Sychas was astonished because she was in such a presence. His look into man is a picture of Him looking upon His own throne, for there is where He would establish it. Christ 'took a child and set him in their midst and said of such is the kingdom.' He chose to teach them the value of the kingdom by the most transparent character. "Christ revealed that sin is in the spirit. Christ said, 'Ye think evil within your hearts,' and to Peter, 'Thou knowest not of what spirit thou art. He showed to the rich young man the soul difficulties that lay In the way of following Him. Christ revealed the subtlest devices of sin by His replies to His enemies, unmasking their hyprocricies. His words pierced conscience. He saw where His words cut. Like a skillful surgeon, He knew what was below where He was cutting. He sympathized with penitents. He was open to sincere Inquirers, but He scathingly rebuked hypocricy. "It Is evident Christ knew man's spirit by the very plan of salvation. It takes for granted that which we find of man's per versity, his vain striving after happiness, his selfish gratification, his foolish pride, his supposed self-dependence. The plan of escape, the simplest and most natural, yet works death to pride and selfishness and conceit. We are open to the eye of God. Christ from the mediatorial throne now reads us. We need deeper consciousness of this fact, then all the cognate facts will become more vivid. God sees the hidden difficulties of us rising in the Christian life, the secret sin to which we are anchored and the vice that is eating out our spiritual life. We are wise if we turn our eyes along the line of God's glance. This omniscience not only shows us our spiritual nature, the seat of His kingdom and the place of our possibilities and peril, but it encourages us, because ns to our prayers 'before they call . will I answer,' and of our needs, 'For your Father knoweth that we have need of these things.' "And this perfect knowledge will prepare a celestial mansion suited. He will not Ignore your holy taste. 'In my Father's house are many mansions.' This indicates variety. And Christ's omniscience insures an eternal abode as well suited to our needs as our earthly one Is to our needs here, and infinitely more so, since no human fact of sin or selfishness can enter into it to spoil what God has wrought. Let us take the lesson that God, looking at and through us, hints at the exalted possibilities of the spirit that He sees." STAMP NOTES. Passing of the Fan-Amcricnns SngC;estions for n Xew Issue. New York Tress. No previous issue of stamps lost popularity so quickly as the Pan-American series. "Remainders" are being burned dally by the cartload in Washington, and when the full report Is sent In all records will be broken. Many Omaha remainders were redeemed in 1W0, making the total face value of the returns for that year over $S25,000. The biggest used of the Pan-American stamps was and still is the New York Central Railroad Company, the 2-center bearing an image of the Empire State express going sixty miles an hour. Why should $1,000,000 worth of stamps be issued and destroyed in a year? Just for a sentiment? The Bureau of Engraving and Printing at Washington is a monster enterprise, employing no less than L'.SOO workers. Unless you are familiar with the details you can have no conception of the amount of treasury certificates, revenue stamps for tobacco, beer, cigarettes, whisky, proprietary articles, etc., and postage stamps that is issued from this department. Of postage stamps alone the output for January, 1:k2, was ö52,2lo,0oo, or more than 21,i,0vH) a day. The new "McKinley postal" cards will be an improvement on the familiar Jefferson brand, and the rush to get the first supply will begin probably this week or next. The consumption of postal cards Is well maintained, but more printing than writing is done on them. The letter sheet Is dead. The last of it will soon be noted, as the department has ordered all stock in the hands of postmasters shipped to Washington for destruction. Only 6.C44 sheets were sold last year, against C.575 In 1W0. Private mailing cards are not popular. It looks as if they may turn out to be as ill-planned as the letter sheet, which was the makeshift of lunacy. It is odd that we did iot issue a few million postage stamps in honor of Prince Henry's visit. What neater compliment could we pay a friendly government than placing the likeness of its head or his reprepresentative on all letters mailed for, say, one month? In this big country such a courtesy would mean Prince Henry's face en no less than W.OuO.OOO written communications under seal. It Is. I believe, a matter of record that an ambitious American offered $50,000 to the government for the privilege of having his face printed on one year's issue of postage stamps. Of course he was a commercial man. with motives of trade in the foreground. In fact, he made no bones about it. It was for advertising purposes pure and simple. His offer was never seriously entertained, but it would have meant his likeness on over 5,000,000. (X) stamps. And he would have been licked by TO.OOO.UOO people. What would the Hall of Fame be in comparison with a series of postage stamps bearing the likenesses of our greatest living men? We should leave out of consideration high officials of the government and choose only such as are truly great not political giants who have climbed by one method or another into public life, but giants of industry in the arts, sciences, finance, commerce, etc. Why not have a. new face put on every month, or every three months? Only the living should be so honored, and that because it is meet that all th people even in the remotest parts of the Republic should become acquainted with the celebrities of the day. There Is no particular reason why Presidents should decorate pink postage. A "U'ell-MnnnBed A flair. New York Letter. The whole ceremony has been singularly well managed. The self-advertls rs have been utterly eliminated. Those who would havo flunkled or-Xawned around the prince

or wousd have gladly spent vast sums to secure some royal recognition have had no opportunity to do this. There have been and will be none of those distressing, false or sham ceremonials with which a part of what is called high society is accustomed to associated the life of a prince. Even the entertainment at the opera house, magnificently brilliant as it was. was democratic, and it must be said that the prince himself by his manner, rather than any words, se-ems to have rejoiced that these entertainments have thus demonstrated the higher possibilities of a great democracy.

PRINCE WELCOMED. (CONCLUDED FROM FIRST FAGEA Excellency Von Piessen. His Excellency Von Elsendecher, His Excellency Von Scckendorff. Assistant Secretary of State David J. Hill, Colonel Bingham, Herr Von Holleben. Adjutant Schmidt von Schwind, Admiral Robley T). Evans. Railroad Director Boyd, Chief of the Secret Service John E. Wilkle and Secret-service Officer Burns. As soon as the train came to a stop Major Wilkle stepped from the prince's car and was greeted by Secret-service Officer Thomas E. Halls and Captain of Detectives Samuel Gerber, of this city. A PLEASING INCIDENT. During the interval, after the presentation of the souvenir, the prince stood upon the rear platform of his car and held a delightfully informal levee, which was broken enly by the starting of the train. A pleasing incident was afforded when Admiral Evans caught sight of his old friend,. Admiral George Brown, standing on the ground beneath, and. reaching down, grasped him warmly by the hand. This was quickly followed by the presentation of Admiral Brown to the prince. Almost simultaneously, on the other side of the car platform, Major Wilkie was endeavoring to catch the prince's attention in order to present to him Col. Rüssel B. Harrison at his Royal Highness' request. "I am glad to meet you, Colonel Harrison," said the prince. "Your family name Is by no means unknown to me. I have read with interest of your father's remarkable career, and his untimely death was a personal sorrow to me." While the prince and Colonel Harrison were engaged in conversation Admiral Evans and Governor Durbin carried on a lively chat. The Governor asked Admiral Evans if he had been showing the prince a good time, and the admiral replied, with a laugh, that his Highness had been almost too busy to eat since the trip commenced. The. Governor ended the talk with a remark that perhaps they should have taken the prince through the gas belt to give him an opportunity to view the busy smaller cities of the State. BROKE THROUGH ROPES. During the last minute of the train's stay the vast crowd, not to be repressed, burst through the ropes and through the lines of policemen and militia, crowding forward, eager to get a closer view of Prince Henry. The small space around the prince's car became packed to the point of suffocation. Finally Mr. Boyd gave the signal to resume the journey, and the train began to creep out of the station. The prince remained on the car platform, acknowledging the repeated cheers with military salutes. Several of the other dignitaries Admiral Evans, Admiral Von Tirpltz and Adjutant Schmidt von Schwind remained on the platform with the prince. Until the train had pulled entirely out of the station the prince remained erect and soldierly, in full view of the cheering thousands. THE SOCIETIES REPRESENTED.

Colonel Bingham, when asked as to the light in which the prince viewed such demonstrations, and the attentions shown him throughout the trip, said: "The prince is delighted at the attentions shown him. He says it is very gracious of Americans to give him such a reception. No, he does not look for it. He would not be surprised if they did not. He sees no reason why they should, as he is a stranger here. Such demonstrations are not new to him. He became acquainted with them In his own country." GREAT RUSH OF PEOPLE. The Police Could Xot Sncceftfnlly Cope with Thousand. The police arrangements as planned were excellent, but when the critical moment came they were by far Ineffective. This was not because of any negligence on the part of the officers, but on account of their inability to cope with the crowd. Ropes had been stretched across Meridian street. Against these ropes the people Jammed themselves and were kept outside of them by a half dozen or more pollco on each side. The plan was to loosen the ropes at the east end after the train had passed and carry the ends to the center of the trainshed to prevent the people from getting beyond the street line and into the sections reserved for the guards,

tne flag bearers of the German societies, the reception committee and newspaper men. This was a good plan, and fifty-one officers, including Captain Krugcr. who had charge of the arrangements, and the seven night sergeants were there to carryit out. It worked perfectly until the trsln had passed and the ropes were untied. Then the officers could not neglect their duty, even to look for a prince. They had to light to protect themselves. Sergeant Hagerman, the largest man on the force, was carried off his feet. It was a real "rush." One man said it was worse than the great "rush" at the opening of the Oklahoma strip in which he had participated. The police could nn keep the crowd back, but with great difficulty kept the people from crowding up against the car. Several persons were badly bruised In the scramble, although no serious injuries were reported.

I Ml I A N A IM LI S'S SO V V KX1 It. Ilenutiful Album Presented to Prince Henry by Mayor Ilookvrnlter. The souvenir album which was presented to Trince Henry last night by Mayor Bookwalter on behalf of the city is probably the most tasteful and altogether beautiful souvenir that Indianapolis ever presented to anyone. It was made by skilled employes of William B. Burford. who went into the task with artistic eagerness and put into the labor of 5ove many extra hours of careful thought. The outer case in which the album Is placed is lined inside and out with the finest quality of satin, American made, royal purple in color, manufactured at Paterson, N. J. On the purple case is embossed in gold the crest of the German empire. The inner case is covered and lined with white moire silk, of the most delicato and beautiful texture. On It is embossed in gold the great seal ot the State of Indiana. The silk also was made by American workmen and came from Paterson, N. J. The album itself is covered with pure white undressed kid. So careful were the workmen in selecting a skin for the cover that orders were placed at Cincinnati. Chicago and St. Louis for six kids' skins at each place. The bundle of skins from Chicago arrived first, and when it was opened the first skin examined proved to be absolutely perfect for the purpose in view. The other skins were not even examined or the other bundles opened. Riveted to the front cover of the album is a solid gold plate five and one-half inches long by three and one-quarter inches wide. On it is hand cut the inscription dedicating the souvenir to the prince: "To his Royal Highness Prince Henry of Prussia from the City of Indianapolls, March 2, 1'JO- " SILK-HINGED BINDING. The leaves of the album are held together with double silk-hinged binding. The leaves, seven in number, are fourteen inches long and eleven inches wide. The leaves are white wedding Bristol board, with a cream-tinted, pebbled mat. The margin of the inscription on the first leaf, and of every photograph, is blank stamped. The back of each leaf Is covered with a cushion of the finest Liberty silk. The first leaf is used for a duplication of the dedicatory inscription on the gold plate. The words are not engraved, but engrossed with beautiful regularity and marvelous effect with a steel-pointed pen. The second leaf is used for the mayor's address to the prince, also engrossed with the same beauty by hand. On the third leaf is a photograph of the Stato Capitol, taken, as were the other views in the album, by Hans Duden. On the fourth page is pictured the Marion county courthouse. The fifth page is used to give a view of the soldiers' and sailors monument. Besides the monument there are shown the Columbia Club, English's Hotel and a view of Meridian street fts far north as the Blacherne building. The sixth page is devoted to views of tho great figures "Peace" and "War" from the monument, which Mr. Duden considers the most effective photographs taken of the collection. On the seventh page is the tablet where Indiana's record in the civil war and SpanishAmerican war are set forth. Mr. John I'. Frenzel, from whose Ideas the album was prepared, says that while the prince may receive more valuable souvenirs he is confident that he will be presented with nothing more beautiful or tasteful. The artistic value of the album, Mr. Frenzel thinks, is many times its actual cost. Those connected with Burford's establishment who prepared the album desired, Mr. Frenzel sliys, to produce a work that could not be criticised by the most critical artist or artisan. It was designed to be the best product of he kind that American hands could turn out. UXIOX STATIOX TRANSFORMED. A Rower of neanty nnd Light In Honor of (iermnn Prince. The visit of his Royal Highness, Henry of Prussia, to this city last night created a stir commensurate with the dignity and im portance of the German prince and of the commonwealth whose capital he honored by his presence. If there was anything lacking in the welcome extended to the fatherland's distinguished representative, the fault lay in the exceeding brevity of his stay and in the lateness of the hour at which his visit was paid. It is scarcely probable that anywhere else along the route of his ex tended Western and Southwestern tour was Prince Henry received with more cordiality and warmth than in Indiana's capital, in which, by tho inexorablo limitations ot the train schedule, he was permitted to pause scarcely longer than a bird upon the wing. Since it was known that the prince would not leave tivis car in the Union Station, at that point the committee on arrangements concentrated Its efforts to provide a spectacular scene that should please the eyes of the royal suite during its limited sojourn and linger in the memory afterward. The admiring comments of hundreds of people who visited the depot during the day yesterday to view the decorations attested that the committee had done its work well. ARRANGEMENT OF LIGHTS. The most conspicuous and beautiful part of the decorations, consisting of artistic arrangement of electric lights in lavish profusion, escaped admiration until the approach of night gave them opportunity to blaze and scintillate in mastering rivalry to the vanishing light of day. The part of the decorative scheme that first caught the eye was the gateway of greenery, formed by placing on either side of Track 4 a huge rustic vase of palms, between which the royal train should make its triumphal entry to tho station. Overhead, the graceful arch, spanning almost the width of a street, was hung with flags of America and Germany emblems of tire power of two great nations floating side by side in inspiring symbol of fraternal union. The two arches Inside of the east end of the stution, reaching back far enough to include the space occupied by the royal coach, were hidden from view by flags and bunting of appropriately mingled German and American patriotic design. The masfclve vaulted roof of the structure was a confusing network of incandescent electric bulbs, which the coming of night showed to be disposed with skill and a true eye for beauty and harmony of illuminative effect. The festoons, wreaths and Immense baili of many-colored llfhti.

when touched into life by the pul-ation of the elrrtrlc current, diffused a tirted radiance which transformed prosaic surrounding objects into fairy-like beauty and softened the darziir.g gl.ire of the great arc lights. VIEWED F.Y MANY. Many a passe nt;er n trains f iltering the station throughout the day came to t!. rear platform ar.i viewed a bit of deer -tion intended specially for th" eys of the prince. This was an immense repro-!uc!i:i ot the good German-American word "Welcome," done in incandescent?, suspended directly beneath the center of the east entrance to th trainshod, and arranged 50 that the t beery word, blazing f-th in the night, should be visible only from i-si.-'e the inciosure. A happy thought suggested th placing of a large golden eagle on a lofty perch within the trainshed. The great bird, emblematical of liberty and power, sug

gested by its 1'oe that it. too, Joined in the general desire to extend a hearty wel come to the august visitor from across the sea. The ropes which kept tho crowds last night from pressing too closely upon the royal party, were not stretched across Meri dian street and within the trainshed until a late hour in the evening, thus giving the public ample opportunity to witness the character of welcome that was to be extended the city's famous guest. People from the ehy mingled with travelers from various xmrts of the country in a natural curiosity to inspect the decorations that gave the usuallj rrosalc trainshed for the nonce an air of poetry and grac. The stream of sightseers increased rather than lessened in the afternoon and evening, despite the growing rawness and chill cf tho atmosphere. The coming of a foreign prince to Indiana was an event of such rarity that tho people determined to make the most of It, and so a day that otherwise would have driven them to the shelter of their homes was spent abroad as if it were balmy spring Instead of bitter, cutting winter. THE PRIXCirS TRAIX. Magnificent Appointments of the Severnl Pull tun ti Cars. The elegant train which the Pennsylvania Railroad Company provided for the use of the prince was the object of great interest during the short time it lay hero. It excited murmurs of admiration, particularly from the women, who fully appreciated the luxury and magnificence of its fittings. The train is made up as follows: First, the composite baggage and smoking car Utopia; next In succession, the Pullman cars Ohio, Indiana and Iowa. Each of these three cars contains ten apartments, fitted with double berths. The apartments are on the left side, a passageway extending the full length of the cars on the right-hand bide. Attached in the iear of the Iowa Is the sleeping car Biscay, devoted to attendants, valets and jackies of the German navy. The dining car Willard follows the Illscay, and it presents upon entrance the appearance of a small cafe. Eleven tables occupy th3 center compartment, while at cither end are the chefs' apartments. Huge ice chests, suggestive of popping corks and frothy champagne, are stationed at either end of the dining compartment. Two cushioned chairs are placed at each table. The Willard is attractively finished, has a high pitched roof, and is suggestive of elegance and comfort combined. The servants' car is furnished with the ordinary upper and lower berths, but the remainder of the cars arc all provided with staterooms and double brass beds. The Columbia, tho prince's car, differs but little in elegance of appointment from the Indiana, Iowa or Ohio, but is provided with a more commodious stateroom at the rear. Those on board the magnificent special train are: Car L Ohio. J HI 3 Excellency Von Tirpltz. I His Exccellency Von Iicssen. II His Excellency Von Eiscndecher. G His Excellency Von Seckendorf!.

In the dining car Willard the tables ar arranged to seat the guests two at each table, in the following order: Admiral Evans and Ambassador Von Holleben having seats reserved for them in this car aa well as in the prince's car, Columbia. Prince Henry dines in the Columbia with Admiral Evans, Herr Von Holleben and Adjutant Schmidt von Schwind, but rarely a meal passes without a number of guests being invited from the other cars.
