THE GUEST OF ST-LOUIS

Prtridist CUtsIieI Yisiti ths Fair ind Speak! it tha ExcIim. Bcceptiun in the Afternoon at tha Undell Tnonsands Unable to Gala Admit tuet A Largo TturoDS. Bt. Louis, October 3. Till this morning the President has been the guest of Mayor Francis, bat to .ay and to-morrow he belongs to the people. Fairer weather could sot oe asked. The skies are clear and the gentle north winds are sufficiently cool to make light overcoats desirable. The streets, cleansed by last night's shower are free from dost, and everywhere along the line of the President's ride to the fair grounds the side walks are crowded to their utmost capacity. The President's carriage, drawn by a quartette of richly caparisoned, hich-etepping horses, and followed by five other carriages, provided for his traveling companions and the local committee in charge, reached the Francis mansion in Vandeventer place a few minutes before lo o'clock. At 10:15, the President and Mrs. Cleveland appeared at the door of the mission and were applauded by the crowd of ladies and children that had gathered in the park in front of the residence. There was a noticeable absence of men, and the dresses of the people indicated the preponderance of the better classes. Maj. C. C. JUinwater entered the carriage with the President and wife, and In a few minutes they were moring briskly toward the fair grounds, escorted by a sqaad of mounted police, and the citizen's committee in carina es. Hundreds of vehicles crowded with peo ple, awa.teri oa Grand avenue, at the entrance of Vandeventer Place, and joined the precession, which was strung out along the avenue for more than smile. There was no noise whatever along the route ex cept the clatter of horses' hoofs on the road and the tramp of thousands of feet upon tee beaten waits. No mishap or incident occuxed to mar the pleasant morning drive and the party arrived at the gate of the fair groutds. The drive to tne lair groun as was made at a trot It was children's day, and the youngsters were out in treat force, lney. with motneis, nurses and friends, pecked the seats of the amphitheater and tne surrounding promenade, to the number of sixty thcua and. A brass band in the pagoda in the center, attempted to make itself neaid, bat the shrill voiced congregation maaa every. thing but the bass dram inaudible. Tne visitors did not alight. After driving round the amphitheater track, a halt was mace and Mrs. Cleveland was presented by the lady superintendent of the Kindergar ten ecnools, with a handsome basket of flowers. The children led by tha banrl, sang "Hau Columbia ' and tha cortege after a drive through the fair grounds, md its way back to the city, where thjy went directly to the Merchants exchange. Mrs. Cleveland did not accompany the President to tbe Exchange but was left enroute at the residence of the Mayor, whence she went to that of Mrs. bcanlaa, one of society's leaders, where the ladies of Sc. Louis had an opportunity to pay their respects. AT THE IXCHAKGE. On arriving t the Merchants Exchange, the President was taken to the director's room where a large number of representa tive citizens from the interior of the State were introduced to him by counties. When this ceremony was over the President was escorted to the main ball of tbe Exchange. The immense room, which is 22o fet long and 160 feet wide, was jammed to its utmost capacity with people and the President had diihculty ia getting from the reception room to tha platform. On the first appearance of the President, loud cheers went up from the entire multitude and as he ascended the platform, the enthusiasm was intense. Mr. Frank Garen nie. preadent of the Merchants' Exchange, intro duced Mayor Francis, and declared this the most auspicious day for bu Louis within her history. Mayor t rancis then welcom ed the President to the city and State, and after another explosion of cheers the 1 resi dent responded as follows: THE PRESIDZST'S SPEECH. If I am expectad to make an extended speech oa tnis occasion I am afraid I shall d i appoint you, and this I should be sorry to do a fur having succeeded at last. thronen much tribulation, in standing face to face with my St, Louis friends. The tribulation of which I speak has arisen from the extreme kindness" of a vast nam ber of the American people and the cordi al invitations they have tendered me to nop and ace tnem on my way to yon. Your city was the objective point of my travel in this direction, bat it has some times seemed to me that every town be tween Washington and here has been rep resented as being directly on my route, and it has been hard to convince their kind and enthusiastic citizens that it would not ba entirely easy, within the time at my dis posal, to pay them a visit My own inclination leading me in the direction of their desires, it has been a difficult matter to re sist their importunities, but X have made tip my mind that the people of St. Louis are to Diame lor tne entire perplexity and disappointment which this matter has caused, for it was thought that if I accept ed every invitation I would never reich .come at all. I expect that anything I might say cen cernine year Bute or city, in the way of laudations or congratulations would hard ly equal your own estimation or tbe sua ject. I believe there was ft time when St. Ixraia was a determined and iealom rival of Chicago. I don't know whether this condition continues or not; bit I hops it does. While you can hardly expect, look crs-on to take sides in such a contest, we are interested to the extent that such a ttnurgle adds to the growth and imorore xnent of the country at large. Both of these cities exemplify in a wonderful d tree, how completely and how speedily American energy and business ingenuity utilizes every available element of muni cipal growth, Jand how every useful type of the world i population is amnm&tel to the grand purpose of American expansion. 'I am here reminded of what I sap pose to be the fact, that more than on halt your voters are of foreign birth and parentage. The growth and increase of your city la every way indicate, l think, that tne coi dition of your population, just made ap parent, i by no means to be deprecatsd; and my observation during a long resi dence in a City similarly situated has led xne to know the value to any community of the industrious, frugal, and tbe thrifty men and women who come from foreign lands to find new uomes with us; who in vest themselves with our citizenship, and . who are eatisSed and content with the freedom of cur Government, and with our laws and institution. The line is easily drawn between them and the non-assimilating emigrants who teek our shores so'.iy I .... 3k -k 1. X a ' advantage to oar body politic." I hope I may, without impropriety, auy this n uch in recognition of what has bean done for St, Louis by its naturabzad citizera, as well as in remembrance cf many kind and valuable friends and assxiatei of former days. I deem myself especially fortunate, in being with yon at a time when the manufactures and products of your city and the surrounding country are on exhibition. At your fair, one of the Iarge3t in the country, those who seek the best and surest evidence of yonr substantial posperity may well be satisfied. Here I shall see the things which are conclusive proof of thrift and wealth and comfortable homes. I hope xo fee beädes, while heir, ceruia features

of your city's life, which just at this time are unusually displayed, and which estab

lish tbe fact that the people of bl Louis, wih all their business engagements and with all their toil and stirring trade, are not averse to pleasure and enjoyment. I hope that you will find your visitors to be interested sightseers; and of on thing you may be assured : However much you may impress us with the greatness of your city, we are certain to have our hearts tilled with a grateful appreciation of the kindnets and hospitality of your people. Three or four times during the delivery of the President's remark?, at every pause in fact, some voice proposed three cheers for G rover Cleveland, and the lungs of the multitude responded. The band greeted the close of his remarks with a National air and the Presidential party filed out the entrance aisle that had been kept open ny the police. The streets were jammed with people, and it was with difficulty that Mr. Cleveland was trotten Into his carriage. Once there, and the citizens pressed to his side and extended their hands in vain. "I will greet you all later," said the Presi dent, "but not here." From the .Exchange tne rresiaeni ana his companions were escorted in their car nages through the principal streets of the citv. the ride lasting about an hour. Everywhere along the route masses of people awaited and greeted the eneat of the dar. The police ar rangement were excellent and there was no disorder, the crowds manifesting their enthusiasm in cheers and noise, and re fraining from crowding about, or following the carriages. The most conspicioas feature of the decoration was the arrangements of gas jets each lamp and awniag post bear in e" a branching tree of Piping. while at street corners great arches wer8 thrown across from curb to enrb. These bore a million colored globes, the e fleet of which even in the day light was striking. The cortege reached the Lindell hotel at 2 O'clock, where rooms including a series of large parlors had been secured for the President. EECEPT10W AT THE XIKDELL. An hour was given for lunch and rest. at 3 o'clock, Mrs. Cleveland having joined her husband, the doors of tne reception parlors were thrown open and the public were admitted to shake the hands of the President and his wife. The reception began promptly at 3 o'clock and continued until 6. A crowd of several hundred ladies and gentlemen were already in waiting In the upper lobby of the hotel when the doors were opened, and ss tbe orchestra struck up a march the people movrd in rapidlv and made their exit by another door. Ihe President and Mrs. Cleveland re ceived their visitors standing in the middle of a large parlor nocer a rich chandelier. Mrs. Cleveland as ncbly clad in dig surah silk, which had a figure of red roso buds and green leaves it was median eecolleree, trimmed lioerauy witu lace and had full lace sleeves to the elbows. Several rows of coral beads adorned her shapely Ktck and a diamond brilliant glittered at fctr throat. A6Core of the lviitig society ladies of St Louis, beautiful in facd and figure and richly clad, assisted her. The police arrangements inside theht -l were excellent, aod the line moved past tbe President freely, but outside a scene was to be witnessed, the oddity of which it would be hard to overstate, lbe street was narrow, and thronen its middle ran the double tracks of a busy street railway. An attempt was made to keep tbe thous ands cf waitiBg visitors in line, six or eight abreast, but every half minute this was broken by the passige of cars. Thea a fought their way through, crushing the masses together on each side and forcing thousands out of their places. Behind each car a crowd followed and took the abandoned places m tbe line. The next car pushed many of those forward toward the hotel, with the natural result ot crowd ing an equal number out of line in front. There was a liberal sprinkling of ladies in the mass, and a strong admixture ot country men of the pore western typ who had rome long distances to sea the President. Bow they surged and struggled, how they shouldered and scolded everything but fought. The stream ilowed up against the dead wall of humanity wedged into tne doorway, split with pre eure from behind, and the particles made their way again into the mass in the rear with true western persistency. The Presi dent received as he always does. He has become very expert in the discharge of bis part of the work, and manages to greatly facilitate tbe passage of the line, inspired apparently only by the desire to Rive the coveted opportunity to as great a number as possible. If he ever gets fatigued his appearance fails to give evi dence of the fact. Submitting as he does good naturealy to the familiar and often boisterous salutations of many who approach him, he takes the liberty, sometimes, to give a loiterer wi'h a grasp of his hand a sturdy pall in the di rection ne ought to move, and citen with a half dozen words manages to answer in kind the greetings of as many callers. Mrs. Cleveland stood to-day to the left and a little in the rear of her husband, and during the greater part of the three hour3 reception, acknowledged the greetings of her visitors with a smile and a bow, but without taking their hands. When tne doors were closed the crowd of disappoint ed ones in waiting numbered many thousands. Colonel Lamont estimates that nine thousand persons took the hand of the President this afternoon. B. AND O. TROUBLES. The Kailroal and tvlecraph Companies Baid to Have Fartd Company, Baltimore, October 3. It can be stated authoritatively that the Baltimore aol Ohio railroad people have at last refold to put up any more money to run the telefraph company, and 1 riday saw the last nancial connection between the two concerns. The railroad people have formally notified the officials of the telegraph com pany that on and after October, they need not expect any assistance Irom tne:a. Borne weeks ago, and just before the cul mination of the syndicate scheme for the transfer of tbe railroad franchise, a meetIdk of the higher officials of tbe telegraph company was held in Baltimore with closed doors. The speculative world wis all a gog about tha matter, bnt nothing definite ever leaked out of what transpired on that occasion. It ia now alleged that this meetinz w n called to discuss the manner of disposin g of the telegraph lines, aod it was then tbtt President Bstes conceived the .'dea of securing enough capital to purchase a controlling interest, and with the system retained under his management, make U a formidable, and at the same time a profitable rival of the Western Union. T pnrchase it outright, would require $3,500 0)0, while a controlling interest would cst $2.000 000 It is asserted that Mr. Bates secured the co-operation of several large capitalists in his scheme, and to prove to them that tbe expenses could be materially reduced without interfering with theefüciency of the service throughout the country, a general pruning of salaries was inaugurated. Tbe whole situation is an interesting one, and puts a new phisa on the telegraph, and, in fact, the entire Baltimore and Ohio deal. Dropped Dead. Evassville, October 2.

New York, September 29 In regard to the work of yesterday's convention at Saratoga, the Timps says: "If there are any Democrats ot tha Randall pattern la New York they were not present at the Siratoga convention, or if they were, they were silenced by the overwhelming preponderacce of genuine and distinct tariff reform sentiment in the convention and in the party It represents. Toe resolution relating to the question of taxation is as strong and clear ai aay that have been adopted by any convention In the Union, and what is especially tigaifirant, it is in substance, and almost la wo'ds, the declaration of the Pre ident himself. Coming from Mr. Cleveland's own State and from the S&le of ex-Secretary Manning and Secretary Fairchild on the eve of a closcontest and after a certain number of profesfed Democratic journals have undertaken to warn the Democrats against any pronounced utterance, this resolution is of extreme importance. On the issue of tbtarilT it fixes the position of the Democracy in the greatest State of the Union, wnicu must have mach influence with the party throughout the country and especially aa it fixes definitely the ground on which the New York Democracy will present Mr. Cleveland's name to the National Convention next year. It makes it clear beyond any dispute that tbe tariff issue is riot to evaceu, and that tne policy or the Uemocratic party, to far as New York cn de cide it, will be one tbat ia more deficite than any avowed by it s n?a 187G. The weakest point in the Democratic platform is the resolution regarding civil service re form. As advocates ot the reform we aifc for nothing better than a direct popular vote on it, cooSdent as we are that that vote would bailie, if it did not silence its opponents." ine world says: "ine indorsements or President Cleveland and of Gov. Hill are, upon the whole, deserved, just and fair. The demand for local self government for cities is timely and right But the plat form is as noticeable for what it does not say as for what it does. It does not meet the sitnation. Many things that the peo ple axe seriously thinking and talking about, it ignores. The inequalities and abuses tbat are driving voters out of the old parties, it does not consider in politics; the influence of the saloons in party management and their failure to pay a just share of the taxes they occasion; the growth of monopolies; the perversion of tke Government from its purposes by plutocratic bribers and corruptionists: on these vital ieeues the platform, like that of the Republicans is silent. The important thing for this convention to have done was to stop tbe diversion of disatisfied voters of the labor party. What hasche done in that direction? The presence of Federal cilice holders in the Democratic ptate convention is much to be regretted. The active interference of office holders ia conventions and nominations is in direct disobedience to the President's orders. A number of Federal officials have done the very thing which their superior officer warned them against and declared to ba 'indecent and unfair.' The President niuU see tbat he eannot aSord to Ignore tus disregard of his authority ia his onru State." The Sun Bays: "The most significant action of the convention was, through its committee on resolutions, on the civil service reform plank in the platform. It was self evident from the action of the committee and the convention that the large majority of the delegates did not h lieve in Mr. Cleveland's civil service policy. Not Much of a Beat Aftar All. . Chicago, October 3. J. L. Bennett, the stenographer who reported the proceedings of the G. A.

CLEVELAND'S TOUR.

Admitting a Good Administration Republican Nomination for 1888 How to Meet the Emergency Labor. New Yohjc, October 1. A reporter asked Hon. Charles B. Farwell, United States Senator from Illinois, who reached the city laBt evening enroute to Europe, what he thought of President Cleveland's tour to the West. He replied that he thought well of it, acd that the President would be well received by all classes, without distinction of party. He had made a good administration, and it was not hia'fault, if no settled policy as to the finances had been carried out, but the fault of his party in Congress. The division in the Democratic party, the lack of experience among its leaders, and the seeds of corruption preserved since the days when it held unrestrained control of the whole country, would probably defeat tne purposes of tne President in any direction of reform. The theorist who hoped for a new order of things through the defeat of the Republican party will probably see at ihe eleventh hour that real reform can only come through that party whose . i a i ? v. a m t memDers boo w me nignest average oi in telligence. "Who do you thinr " asked the reporter. "will get the Republican nomination?" "Personally." replied the Senator, with out hesitating. "I should like to see Judge Uresham or John Sherman heed the Re publican ticket. There would be some satisfaction in supporting a candidate of such high character, but personal predilec tions should have nothing to do with it. The Republican party has been divided and it is confronted with the fact that Mr. Cleveland, who has made a good executive, will be the candidate of the Democratic party. The contest will be settled here in New York, and this fact ought to make the Republicans more prudent than they were in iss4." "How would you meet' the emergency, Mr. Farwell?" "If I controlled all the delegates of tbe other States," Baid the Senator, "I would c o to the delegation from New York and cay select that man for the Presidency who can carry xsew York the one whose suc cess von are willing to become responsible for. There I would leave it. If the dele gates were patriotic men. they would di' vest themselves of all personal' feeling, and rite to the occasion. The Republicans ot the States and especially of New York ought to see that able and unpledged men are Bent as delepa es A convention thus constituted would give the party a candi date who would bring about a union and secure tbe support again of a majority of the people. Too much stress cannot be laid on tha necessity of having the next National Convention composed of men wbo are free from pledges to particular candidates " "What about tbe labor complies tiona?" queried the leporter. "They will settle themselves in time, and doubtless in a way to benefit the genuine laborer. There is no room for Anarchists or Progressive Socialists in thij couiitry a couutry offering unlimited op portunities to toe maastnous, the irug&t st d temperAte to secure the comforts of heme and tbe blessings of freedom. If tbe present agitation should result in an in crease cf American spirit and restrictions cn the immigration tf paupers, and evil winded persons from .hurope. it will be a real benefit to tbe couutry." Tbe reporter made reference to the use of Mr. Farwelf a name for the Republican nomination for the Presidency, but his only reply was a cheerful 4,gooi night" and tbe Senator entered his stateroom on the Umbria. SENSATIONAL STORY. A Woman Claims tbat She ia the First Bora of England's Queeo, Caroline P. Guelph, tbe name by which a woman, at present in New York, makes herself known, is about to publish a book which is destined to worry the crown prince of Germany, and may eyen attract tbe notice of the ruler of England and empress of India. In short, this woman claims she is the first born of Prince Albert and Victoria Guelph, while the wife of Germany's crown prince is the daughter of a German countess, who was morganatically married to Albert prior to his attachment to the queen ot England. Whether this woman, who is also known as the Princess Sophia Adelaide, is merely an adventuress, borrowing her idea from Gilbert's mixing up of Kackstraw and Capt. Corcoran in "Pinafore," is not stated, but there is small probability of her story gaining credence. Xne JNew xotk ximes oi ennuay pnniea a part of the woman's story, from which the following is taken: There is a woman in this city who claims to be the eldest daugnter of Victoria,queen of England.. She claims to have been defrauded of her rights, and to be the real Princess Victoria, formerly princess royal of England, and now the wife of the crown piince cf Germany. Her claims seem naturally preposterous. It is, however, said to be substantiated to a degree that makes it somewhat interesting. If it should happen by eny strange chance to be true the scandal of the century has appeared. About four months sgo there came to this city from Paria a lady about 0 years of age. Aa Bhe appeared yesterday sne was short to a degree that might be termed squatty, with steel-blue eyea, two in number, heavy eyebrows, and a rather heavy, somewhat coarsely molded, face.

Guelph, or whatever her real name is, drapes her head In a white shawl, aa she sometimes does in an off-hand way, the resemblance is remarkable. A photograph of hers would be instantly declared by the average person to be the picture ot a daughter of the queen. She does not depend greatly noon the resemblance, however. She is very cool and very serious in her claim, and relies upon what she regards as facts. Her story has several time3 come close to publication. It would have been cabled to New York by a vigilant New York correspondent in Paris some time ago had she permitted. After her arrival here she received a very substantial offer for it from publisher. Sae declined publicity at that time, however, as she was on the pension roll of the British government. According to her story, and did not desire to altogether destroy what for years had been her means of support, and hopes of recognition. Now, however, her attempts to obtain favor and support have proved lutile, ehe has written a book setting forth her history, with documents, corresponderce, etc, intended to establish its authenticity, and her book, unless it Is changed at birth, ts she thinks Bhe was, will appear next week:. Bellord fc Clarke, No. 384 Broadway, are the publishers, Mr. Belford things he has gotten bold of a very good thing. He is seriously inclined to believe her story, which is somewhat remarkable on his part, he being her publibher.

with any certainty predict. MR. ALZXA5CE3 EELFOKD said last evening tbat he could not voucn for tbe truth ot the woman's story, it was very plausible, and one of his agents had verified the circumstances of the morgantie marriaee of her alleged royal father. He a) so claimed tbe resemblance of the Princess Adelaide, as he speaks of her, to Qneen Victoria was most striking, while tne crown princess of Germany bore no re semblance to tne Guelph family. Mr. Belford received last evening from his brother in New York the following telegram, giv ing in brief the woman a story, whicn she is soon to publish: Prince Albert, before his marriage with Queen Victoria, was married morganatically to the Countess Reusa in Germany in November, 1840. Qneen Victoria and the countess gave birth to female children al most at the same time. The countess, undar a threat of exposure, compelled Prince Albert to exchange the two infants, a sub stitution which was effected through the intervention of the royal nurse. The queen's child was taken to France in charge ox LAaj Anna Campbell and was brought up in her care until her eighth year at Poisse. near Paris, a Bavarian ser vant named Peter beidl, being their pro tector. The queen s child was called s phia Adelaide. The countess child, in the royal household in Eng land, was brought up as a princess, and is now wife of the crown prince of Germany. In 1S48. or thereabouts, S phia Adelaide, then about eight years old. was tent to a convent near Monica, in tsavaria, where she was educated for a few years. She was afterward taken td Schles wig-Holstein, where she and Lady Anna Campbell lived for some time in the house of a friend and agent of Prince Albert named Count de Lundi, who passed as un cle to Sophia Adelaide, in his charge and that of Lady Anne, Sophia Adelaide went to Italy and France, and afterward, when about twelve years old, to the Isle of Bourbon in the Indian ocean. They soon removed to Quito, in South America, and thence to rew Orleans, the date being about 1S54. Tbe cholera was making great ravages, and they removed from precaution to Day ton, O., where her protector, the Count de Lundi, took cholera and died. Before his death he disclosed to Sophia Adelaide the mystery of her birth, and gave her a med allion with tbe portrait of her motaer, Queen Victoria. This death bed disclosure was made in tbe presence and in the hearirgof Dr. Eradbeck, the attending physi cian, and rather Hann, or Hahemann, the officiating priest. In order to give Sophia Adelaide the protection of his came, the Ccun de Lundi married her. OS HIS DEATH-BED, Father Hahn performing the ceremony. A few months later Lady Anna died aud Sophia Adelaide (now the widowed count ess of Lundi) was left alone in a strange country. She then went to live at New Or leans with .the femily of a CoL Pierce, whose acquaintance ehe had previously made. She was in receipt of a handsome pension from Eagland. Her f ither wrote urging ber to return thither, but she was afraid of being immured in a convent and declined, and left New Orleans for Dayton by tbe Mississippi steamer Rainbow, which, however, was burned on the trip and sank, about 100 lives being lost. Sophia Adelaide, though severely scalded by steam, was saved, but all her papers and trunks were lost She reached Dayton, and afterward, in 1859, married an Ameri can physician of Kentucky. In 1SG1 her father died. In 1870 she obtained a divorce from her husband and returned to Europe, travel ing there for several years. All this time ber pension had been regularly paid to her through Rev. Edward Bouverie, of Colehill. England. About 186 it was suddenly stopped. She had become acquainted with John Browi, Queen Victoria's Highland servant, and appealed to him regarding his pension, and he tent her monev on two or three oc casions, but he died ir 1S82. and Bhe has been without regular means of support. She states that she Las appealed to her royal connections for justice and recogni tion, but in vain, and she has now re turned to America to appeal to public opinion here to see if she cannot get justice in that way. Bhe is now in New York Butierin ten dins the publication of her life, which is ex Dec ted to be out in a few days. and to create a sensation. Bhe certainly bears a most remarkable resemblance to Queen Victoria, whom she claims to be her real mother. The confidence of people who have tried Hood's Sasaparilla, in this preparation, is remarkable. It has cured many who have failed to derive any eood whatever from other articles.
