The Cen tenia! celebration in honor of the Constitution of. the Waited States

commenced at Philadelphia Thursday, and continued through Friday find Saturday. Tlte streets were packed with masses of people; it being estimated that fully 200,000 visitors were in the city. The weather was beautiful. The streets presented ah appearance that was lively

in the extreme. In all directions, as far as the eye could reach it was one mass of bunting and hvor ition. Many of the displays wre lavish. The monster civic and industrial parade started at ten o'clock and marched five miles and then countermarched, passing through one continuous line of observation stands, gaily decorated with flags of all nations. On North Broad street there was scarcely a house, public or private, that was not covered with bunting or in other ways suitably decorated. The decorators strived for novel effects, and in this they Were highly successful. Some lioiises were almost covered with heroic Statues of Columbia, surrounded by the flags of all nations, while other fronts were completely concealed with bunting.. The Odd Fellows' hall exhibited a banner announcing that place as "the spot where Franklin drew lightning from the clouds in 1752," and at other points busts of Washington were mounted in front of the houses

and profusely decorated Amid the gay holiday attire of the streets there was nothing more conspicuous or artistic than the three triumphal arches that spanned Broad and Chestnut streets. The Broad street arch, the principal One, was almost opposite the main reviewing stand, which was occupied by the President and his party upon their arrival. It was erected by the centennial commission, and is sixty feet high, springing from each curb; is of plain semi-circular form and segmentad on the South with illuminated

No Means of Escape for the Anarchists.

Chicago 3

The Illinois Stiprcinci Court Affirm the Judgment of the lywer Court by a Unanimous Opinion. '- The Illinois Supreme Court iu session at Ottawa, Wednesday morning, delivered an opinion in the anarchist, case, affirming the judgment of the court helow. Theopinion was written hy Judge Magruder, of the Chicago district, and is an able exposition of the law and previous interpretation thereof by eminent jurists in this country, as well as of the conrts bearing on the alleged and perhaps real errors in this record. In his work he was ably helped by each of the other six distinguished judges, who made him their spokesman,and through him expressed their unanimoua decision. The opinion covers 225 pages of closelv-written manuscript and contains about 56,000 words. The opinion of Judge Magruder says: "In this case the judgment of the court below is affirmed as to all and as to each and every one of the defendants. An opinion has been prepared setting forth the reasons iror the affirmation of the judgment. The opinion is now handed to the clerk to be filed." The judgment of the court was unanimous. . After the reading of the opinion Judge Mulky said: "It is not my intention to offer a separate opinion, as I should have done. I desire to avail myself of this occasion to say that while I concur in the conclusions reached and also thc-

general views as entertained in the opini on filed, I do not wish to be understood as holding that the record is free form error, for I do not think it is. I am, nevertheless, of the opinion that none of the errors complained of are of

such serious character as to require a reversal of the judgment. In view of the number of defendants on trial, the great length of time consumed in the trial, the vast amount of testimony passed upon by the court, and the almost numberless rulings the court was req uired to make, the wonderment lo me is that the errors were not more numer

ous and of a more serious character than they are. 3!n short, after having fully examined the record and giving the question arising on it my very best thought, with an earnest and conscientious desire to' faithfully discharge my whole duty, I am iully satisfied, that the opinion reached vindicates the law and does complete justice between (he State and the defendants, fully warranted by the law and the evidence." The substance of the decision as stated by Judge Sheldon is that the Court orders that the sentence of the Superior Court of Cook county of the defendants in the indictment August Spies, Michael Schwab, Samuel Fielden, R. Parsons, Adolph Fischer, Engel and Louis Ling be c&raied into effect by the Sheriff. of Cook county on the 11th day of November next Friday between the hours of 10 o'clock in the forenoon and 4 o'clock In the afternoon on that day. The anarchists are; making great efforts to enlist the interest of working-

men in behalf of the condemned Chicago fellows. ' Merits is hour. I lo fmccecd, ami for tliia renfc&u HhU'- :Hrrlt Cnr stands nt thth ad. it la war. rrtntfcri to c x r. F.J. UlK-ney & (Jo., Proprietor, ToJfcdo, O.

the Union, and pa the fforih with the natnes of the States, the shield and name of each being back to back. The thirteen original States occupy the middle position 6i the group, and the others are placed alongside in the order in which they came into the Union. Surmounting the arch is a mammoth device consisting of an American eagle and a stand of national colors. The scene at the grand reviewing stand, situated opposite the Union League Club house, on Broad street, fust below Sanson), was a grand one. The stand b on either side of Broad street were tilled with people, and the gay colors of the ladies' and children's raiment lent beauty to the magnificent and elaborate decorations of the various stands themselves. Section A, the central portion of the stand, was reserved for the Governors of the StateB with their staffs. On this stand also were Senators and Representatives in Congress, many of whom were present, the Commissioners of the various States and Territories, thirtythree of whom were present, the diplomatic corps, the foreign consuls and specially-invited guests of the commission. Governor Beaver road by in his carriage and was greeted with a hearty round applause. By 11 o'clock the distinguished guests, the Governors, foreign ministers, and others, and others began to pour into their assigned places thick and fast. As the different Governors passed up or down Broad street and were recognized, they received round after round of cheers, and the ladies and children joined in the greeting by waving their hats handkerchiefs and parasols. The moneter civic and industrial parade, illustrating the advancement of industrial arts and sciences during the past century, it is believed fairly eclipsed anything of the kind ever known. There were in line 300 floats, each bearing a representation of some particular branch of industry, 12,000 men, 3.000 horses and 150 bands of music. At the head of the column rode Colonel A, Louden Snowden, Chief Marshal, and his staff of fifty-aidsand standard-bearers and two trumpeters. Directly behind them and leading the column itself was the United States marine hand, followed by a grand banner representing Columbia pointing to the past with one hand, and with the Other to the present, the former being Represented by old implements and ieondition, the latter by those of to-day, indicating progress. The banner typi

fied the demonstration and was drawn on a car bv six horses. The display

from this point was divided into twenty-three divisions, each being under charge and supervision of an assistant marshal and several aids. The honor of heading the first division was given to the Patriotic Sons of America, who presented a beautiful display, jit was headed by a gaily decorated wagbn b aring banners with mottoes emblematic of the order. Following this float came a band and several tableaux on floats, typical of events during the revolution and representing the different nations which make np America's population, in navy costumes, a beautiful temple, handsome I v decorated with thirty-eight ladies at the portal, representing the States of the Union; "Uncle Sam" and the Goddess o! Liberty in costume, and a float upon which stood representatives of the school-houses of ja century a?o and those of to-day, sur rounded by school children. The second division was made up by the Carpenters' Company, of Philadelphia, which antedates all other industrial associations, having been incorporated p 1724, and which is the only industrial organiation in existence which parlieijpated in the procession of 1787. The third division was an agricultural

exhibit, displaying all the old as well as

the new implements, and was complete in every detail. Following this came a representation of flouring mills built in 1760 and 1814, and an illustration of the

present manner of making flour. Division No. 4 was made up of a display by the typographical fraternity, and was an interesting feature. Illustrations of the different phases of printing were given.

blank book manufacture. Other trades followed. President Cleveland arrived at 8:30 p. m. Thursday. In the evening Gov. Beaver &0V6 a reception at night and fully 15,000 people shook hands with him. among whom was the President himself. The President entered the reception-room arm in arm with Chairman Thompson, by whom he was presented to the Governor. The meetimr was a

very cordial one. The usual compliments were exchanged, the President ? peak ing in an almost inaudible voice. When the handshaking had ceased, Governor Beaver waved his hand to an elbvau m behind libit on which were grouped several Governors and other

distinguished gueatf. Go up on the

platform, Mr. Cleveland1 ho said, "you will find some old friends there, and make pome new ones, t hope." Presi dent Cleveland at once found himself the center of an admiring throng, and at the same t ime the recipient of a warm

line. Cardinal Gibbons also held a reception and it was the most brilliant ever accorded a Catholic prelato in this country. On Friday 30,000 uniformed soldiers under command of Gen. Phil. Sheridan, passed in review before? the President. The streets were crowded even more than on Thursday, and Some estimates of the people present are placed as high as 500,000. President Cleveland made the following speech at the Commercial Exchange, where he was given a reception: I am glad I have an opportunity to meet o Ifiri a representation oi the business men of Philadelphia. It is well that we should not entirely oraet in the mkkt of our centennial Jubilee that the aim and purpose of good Government tend, after all, to the advancement of the material interests of the people and the incretf o of their trade and coraniero?. The .thought has

i sometimes occurred to me that in the hurry and

rtis.h o business there might as well he infused a little move patriotism -than we are wont to

see, aud a little more-recognition of the fact that a wholesome political sentiment is closely related not only to the general good; but to the general success of business. Of course, our citizens enr gaged in business are quick to seo the bearing of any policy which the Government may adopt, as it affects their personal sr.ceess and their accumulation. But I would like to see that broad and patriotic sentiment among them which cau sec beyond their particular personal interests, and which, can recognize that the advancement of the entire country is an object for which they may well strive, even sometime to the diminution of tboir constantly increasing; profits. Must we always look for the politual opinions-of our business men precisely where they suppose their immediate pecuniary advautega is found V 1 know how vain it is to hope for Die eradication of a selfish motive in all affairs of life! but I am reminded that we celebrate to-day the triumph of patriotism over selfishness. Will any one say the concessions of the constitutions were -.iot well made, or that we &re not to-day in the full enjoyment of the blessings resultiug from a due regard for all the conflicting interests represented by the different States which were united a hundred year ago? I believe the complete benefits promised to the people by our fonii of government can only be secured by an exercise of the same spirit of toleration for one another's rights and interest in wt-ieh it hai its birth. This spirit will prevail when the business men of the country cultivate political thought; hen they cease to eschew participation iu political action, and when sueh thought and action are guided by belter motives than purely selfish and exclusive benefit. 1 am of the opinion that there is no place in tfcc country where such a condition can be so properly and success nlly maintained as here among th enlightened and enterprising business men of Philadelphia.

Saturday was tho closing day. During all this time there have been Flippers, meetings and receptions innumerable. The memorial day ceremonies proper wsre held in Independence Square, Saturday. President Cleveland and Supreme Justice Samuel F. Miller made addresses. The President spoke as follows: I deem it a very great honor and pleasure- to participate in these impressive exercises. Hrcry American citizen should, on this centennial day, rejoice in his citizenship. He will not find the cause of his rejoicing in the antiquity of his country, 'or among the nations of the earth his stands ith the youngost, He will not find it in the gutter and the pomp that bedeck a monarch and dazzle abject and servile subjects, for iu bis country tho people themselves are rulers. He will not find it in the story of eloody foreign conquests, for his government -has been con tent to care for its own domain and people. He should rejoice bcausc the work of framing our constitution was completed one hundred years ago to-day. aud. also, beeac.se when completed it established a free government. He should rejoice because this constitution and governmenthave survived ho long, and also because they have survived with so many blessings and have demonstrated so fully the strength aud value of popular rule, lie should rejoice in the wondr ous growth and achievements of the post one hundred years, and alo of the glorious promise of the constitution through centuries to come. We shall fail to bo duly thankful' for all that was done for us one hundred years ago unless we realiae the dim cutties of the work then in bund and the dangers avoided in the task of forming a more perfect mnon between disjointed .States with interests and opinions radicnllv diverse and stnbbor'dy maintained. The perplexities of tin convention which undertook tbe labor of prejv.rirg our constitution are apparent in tiuse earnest :1 words of one of the most illustrious of its members: "The small progress we have made after four or five weeks of close aitendanee.and continued reasonings with each other, our different sentiments on almost ever, question-several of the Inst producing as many uays as yeas'is, methinks, a mel ancholy proof of the imperfection of the humanunderstanding. We, indeed, seem to feel our own want of political wisdom, since we have be-n running about in search pf H- We havo gone back to ancient history for nodels of Government, and examined the different forms of those republics-which, having been formed with the pfcedH of their own dissolution, now no longer exist. In this situation of this assembly, groping, as it were, in the dark to find political truth, and scarce able to distinguish it when presented to us how iiaonened.it sir.that we have

And if a sparrow can not fall to the ground without His notice, U it probable that an empire en raise without His aid? Wo have been assured, sir. in the sacred writings, that 'except the Lord build tbe house, they lator in vain that build it.' I firmly believe this; aud I also believe tfiat without His concurring and we m all succeed in this 'political building no better than the builders of Babel. We shall be divided by our little partial, local interests, our projects will be confounded, And we ourselves shall Income a reproach and

byword down t future ages; and. what is worse, mankind may hereafter, -from this unfortunate instance, despair of establishing Governments by human wisdom and leave it to chance, war and eouquest." In the face of all discouragements, the fathers of the republic labored on for four long, weary months in alternate! hope and fear, but always with rugged resolve, never faulteriug in a sturdy endeavor sanctified by a prophetic sense of the value to noptcritv of their success, and always with unflinching faith in the principles which make the foundation oi a Government hy the people. , , , At last their task was done. It is related that upon the back of the chair occupied by Washington as the president of the convention, a sun was painted, and that as the delegates were signing the complete constitution one of them said: m "I have often and oftcn.in the course of the session, i nd in the solitude of my hope and fears as to its issue, looked at that suu behind the president without being able to tc'l whether it was rising or setting. But now, at length, I know that it is a rising and not a setting sum" We .stand to-day ou the spot where this rising suu emerged from political night and darkness, and in its own bright meridian light we mark its glorious way. Clouds have sometimes obscured its rays, and dreadful storms have made us fear: but God has held it -in its course, aud through its life-giving warmth has performed his latest miracle in the creation of this wondrous land and people. As we look down the past century to tho origin of our constitution, as we contemplate its trials and its triumphs, as we realize how completely the principles upon which it is based have met, everv national peri I and every national need, how devo'utlv should we confess with Franklin, "God governs'in the afl'airsof icen,' and how solemn should be the reflection that to our hands is committed this ark oi the people's covenant, aud that ours is the dUy to shield it from impious hands. We received it, sealed it with the tests of a century. It ha been found sufficient in the past, and in all the future years it will be found sufficient. If the Vine ri can people are true lo their saeredtrust, another centennial day will come and million's yet unborn will impure concerning our stewardship and the safety of their constitution. God graut that they may find it unimpaired : and as we rejoice in the patriotism and devotion of those who lived a hundred vears ago. go mav others who follow us rejoice in our ildeUtv and "in our jealous love for constitu

Grant was Unanimously nominated by acclamation, k full list of the titate officers to be elected Was iheh nominate!!. The platform begins by stating that the Republican party seeks restoration to power in the Nation and State, and rehearses its record and that of tbe Democratic party since its accession to power as reasons thereto re; claiming

for the former "success in war, in pacification and restoration,, and in executive legislative and financial achievements," and charging upon the latter incapacfty and inefficiency in administration and legislation," and "the egregious blunders of the executive and the Democratic branch of Congress. ' It says on Urn tariff and revenue question:

We adhfere firmly to the American policy, uhdfcr whose operation unexampled prosperity and thrift have bles-:ed the land, and hold that any changes to be made in the tariff laws should be made by the friends of those laws and in the interest of protection of labor on our ov:a soil and of home markets, not by or in the interest of free trade propagandists, nor. for the benefit of foreign producers and foreign labor. ...... National taxation should be so adjust

ed fjs to raise revenue sufficient for an economic and wise administration of the government, for the payment of the public debt, for the development of natural resources, and for national defense; but any reduction should be so made as not to impair the prosperity of home industries. American markets must be preserved to the products of American labor and capital and protected from foreign encroachments. It charges President Cleveland and Governor Hill with hypocrisy and "systematic perversion of the law to partisan purposes' and says the 'political rights of all persons throughout the land must be established firmly and beyond controversy ' It charges "persecution of the workingman in the Smith and the denial of his civil rights," and declares that "a fair hearing on all public questions, a free ballot in every citizen's hand, and an honest, count of the vote are just prerogatives of citizenship, to which full respect must be paid lo insure the enjoyment of the freein aa's birthright, and the maintenance of Republican Government on a stable foundation ' The veterans of the Union army and navy are entitled to the consideration of the people tor all public preferment, and should receive generous care and adequate pensions. The flippant, sneering language of President Cleveland's votea of pension bills was insulting to the veterans and degrading to the executive. The 4subervient spirit displayed in Mr. Cleveland's illegal order to return rebel battle-flags, the precious trophies of the Wnion troops, deserves only reprobation and justly excites the resentment of all loyal people." On the question of immigration it says: "Anarchists. Communists, Polygamists, paupers, fugitives from justice, and insane, vicious anc. criminal neisons, as also contract labor, Bhould be rigously excluded; but honest, industrious, wellintentioned persons escaping the o passions and degradation of Old AVorld despotisms, and the crushing force of free-trade politics are welcome as a desirable element; of our population." On the liquor question iu the State, it. sa)-s: "We heartily indorse the purpose of the Republican majority of the Legislature in passing the bills to limit aud restrict the liquor traffic, and we condemn the vetoes of the Governor as hostile to that purpose. We recommend comprehensive and efficient legislation for governing local option by counties, towns and cities,nd restriction by taxation in such localities as do not exclude absolutely the traffic." It arraigns Governor Hill for vet oing the State census registration and oonstitutional convention bills. It further says: "We approve the laws, State and National, pro hi biting the manufacture and sale of articles of food made in simulation of butter and cheese, and earnestly favor such further legislation as maybe necessary for he protection of genuine dairy products." The last section reads: "The cance of Ireland and the efforts in its behalf by Gladstone, Parnetl and their associates have the earnest sympathy of "Republicans and command their cooperation by all peaceful methods to promote an earl) and complete triumph." A minority report on the liquor question was defeated hy a vote of 515 to 130. I- said: "That while the Republican party of the. Btae of New York unalterably opposes ami legislation which attempts to prohibit individual freedom cf choice of beverages, as well as of food or raiment, it recognizes the right of the people oil th:;s State to repress and punish intemperance in any form prejudicial to the welfare of society. It also recognizes the right of the people to compel all traffic in any articles which may lend to produce or increase pau

perism or crime to bear the burdens of taxation wbncb.ihroughthem,are imposed upon the people. It further said that as thecounties containing the large cities paid 80 per cent, of the tlx the question of what proportion the liquor traffic should bear should be submitted to a popular vote iu those coun ties. It also recognizes local option and advocates its extension to cities."
