(Mrs. O. H. P. Belmont Behind Chair.) ing monunient to Henry Hudson and the reception to the naval visitors on Governors Island—went off without a hitch. The cornerstone of the monument to Hudson on Sputten Duyvil hill was laid in a drizzling rain. The storm kept down the attendance, but did not bother Governor Hughes, who had come over from Palisades park in time to deliver a eulogy on the discovery of the Hudson. The governor spoke standing bareheaded in the open and declining all offers of umbrellas. Mrs. Howe Only Woman on Stage. The envoys of seven nations were officially received at a reception in the Metropolitan Opera House. One of the most conspicuous figures on the stage, and the only woman occupying such a position was Mrst Julia Ward Howe, the venerable author of “The Battle Hymn of the Republic." Because of her advanced years, Mrs. Howe sat in a wheeled chair. At her left was Admiral Sir Edward Seymour of the British fleet, while nearby were M. Jean paston Darboux the French representative; Rear Admiral Seaton Schroeder, commanding the Atlantic battleship fleet, and Admiral Le Pord of the French battleship, La Justice. The vast bhilding was solemnly hushed when Mrs. Howe read an original poem lauding the daring and the deeds of the man who commanded the Half Moon and the Inventor who built the Clermont. Plateglass Is Protected.

Preparations for the great historical parade today went on ynnindered by the downpour. In making ready for the largest crowd which the city has ever seen, shopkeepers have shuttered their plate glass windows with boards, and householders have barricaded themselves behind strong picket fences which the crowds will be unable to scale. Grandstand tickets sold at prices running from 18 to 125 apiece. Hotel rooms fronting on the line of parade are worth |75 to 1100 each. If the wind does not exceed five or six miles an hour and the weather otherwise is agreeable, both Wilbur Wright and Glenn H. Curtiss will make flights in their aeroplanes at Governors Island today. Their machines have been thoroughly overhauled and the gasoline tanks filled, leaving nothing

TAFT’S DELAYED ADDRESS IS DUE

He’s In Spokane and Conservation Speech Is Expected. PRESIDENT DOWN IN A MINE Wrench That the Chief Executive Gave His Ankle at Beverly Bothers Him Slightly Now—Golf Club of Copper, Silver and Gold, Given to the White House Occupant, Is Inscribed as Follows: “Champion 1909-1914 and Then Some.”

Spokane, Wash., Sept, 28.—1 t Is expected that President Taft in this city today will deliver his speech on conservation. It was his intention to speak on this subject in Denver. Since leaving Colorado he has had conferences with Secretary Ballinger and Chief Forester Pinchot and it is expected that the differences which caused these aids of the administration to see one another without speaking in Salt Lake City will be discussed by their chief. Attired in a linen duster, an old black slouch hat and swinging an electric lantern at his side, the president was locked in a narrow iron cage and dropped 1,200 feet through midnight blackness into the depths of the famous Old Leonard copper mine at Butte. He had the rare experience of seeing miners at work with a giant drill in d vein of high grade ore that sparkled green with its wealth of mineral. < Close to Mine Fire. During his journey through the mln* the president was within seventy-five feet of a fir* which has been burning for four years and which has defied all I efforts to extinguish IL

Taft walked with a limp when he first got off the train at Anaconda, the result of a sprained tendon in his right foot. The sprain was acquired at Beverly, but this was the first time it bothered him. The injury is not serious. At Butte the president was presented with a full sized golf club—a driver —mcde of. copper, silver and gold, the three metals that have made the Butte camp famous. On the head of the driver the following inscription was engraved: ' "William Howard Taft, Champion 1909-1913 —and then some.” In his remarks at Butte the president said: Mention* His 300 Pounds. “To come out to this awful looking desert from the green fields of the east and see a city spring up like magic out of what is seemingly nothing, is a revelation in the possibilities of American manhood and American energy. I am going to visit your city under ground. I am going to assume that you have a rope that is strong enough to let down 300 pounds. lam going to see that wonderful system of galleries from which you have taken the wealth that has been a marvel to the world.’’
