president, and the Rev.C.A.Sykes, secretary.A very flattering reso- lotion was passed.thanking the Rev.Dr.Jackson for his able lecture.The ministerial sessions came to a close yesterday aftermoon and were very.interesting and profitable.There was a more than average attendance of delegates, and it is expected that when all have arrived there will be about 250 present.Yesterday afterncon candidates for the ministry being asked for, the following were accepted :\u2014Burton Booth Brown and Leslie Lionel Meech.Two others were referred to the examining board.W.J.Williams, having been previously ordained, is to be received into full connection, having completed his probation.This practically concluded the business of the session.METHODS OF MINISTERIAL WORK.On motion of the Rev.S.G.Bland, a conversation ensued on methods of ministerial work.The Rev.James Elliott urged the value of personal contact with young men, erd judicious evangelistic work in connection with the Sunday-school.He deprzcat- « certain revivalist meetings and meths The Rev.Dr.Jackson held that too much emphasis has been laid by some on changed conditions in modern times.The evil lies in the dissipation of ministerial energy on the routine of church work.The ministers must be eminently preachers, He urged that the officials of the church should all do their appropriate work, while the minister is freed for continuous study.The class meet- Ings are ten times too large to accom- lish their purpose, and the stewards sometimes leave their work to jade the odv and mind of the minister.The Rev.FC.Chisholm protested ainet the severance of evangelistic work from the preaching.To the altered methods of evangelism which have tome to prevail may be attributed the *vil condition of our day.\u2018The minister \u20188 too often discounted and a special evan- list is called in, to the detriment of the church.The Rev.David Winter pleaded for an \u2018erease of prayer in the life of the individual and the family.Speaking from the experience of seven years\u2019 evangelis- \u2018ie work, he declared that if the churches Tallied to the continuous support of their Pastor as they do to help the evangelist the evangelist would not be in demand.The Rev.Dr.Hunter,thought that more ime should be devoted in the conference \u20189 Conversation on personal religion and the mutual stimulating of the highest bersnnal consecration and earnestness.a The session then closed with the bene- \u201cetion by the Rev.Dr.Shaw.1 EVENING.SESSION.1 the evening the annual meeting of 2A OGILVY SS ~~ St.Catherine and

Chief among those who took part in the work were Paul and Barbara Heck, whose names will remain a pleasant memory as Jong as Methodism exists.This sainted couple came to Augusta and settled a few miles from Brockville, in 1785, when a class was immediately gathered.DAILY WITNESS superannuation.» troduced and \u2018| of -the Barbara died in 1804 and her remains FL Tr were interred in the old \u2018 Blue Church\u2019 Cemetery, between Brockville and Prescott.Le FIRST REGULAR PREACHER.The first regular Methodist preacher in Canada is said to have been Wm.Losee, who lived in Leeds and Grenville in 1790.He came to visit some of his friends who had come to Canada from the United States, and preached his way from Lake Champlain on up through Matilda, Augusta, Elizabethtown and on into the Bay of Quinte district.He was joined by Darius Dunham in 1792, and the story is told that these two preachers fell in love with the same girl, and Dun- ham, failing to win her affection, took the matter so much to heart that he lost his reason and \u2018died in an asylum.Tn 1702, at the New York Conference, held in Albany, Losee reported 185 members in the district, and at the end of another year the number had increased to 449.Others cäïme to assist them and in 1801-2 1,502 \u2018were reported.These men were full of zeal and.gounted not hardships or privations in carrying out the work they had undertaken for the Master.CT Among the eixly converts of those days was Michael Carman, grandfather of the Rev.Br.Carman, the present efficient gendral.-superintendent of the Methodist Church in\u201d\"Canada.In 1792 Dunham had charge of the Oswegatchie circuit, which consisted of Edwardsburg, Augusta, Elizabethtown, Yonge, Matildé, Williamsburg, Osua- brock and Cornwall, a very fair-sized cireuit.) On June 21.the General Conference was held at Elizabethtown meeting house at what is now the village of Lyn, five \u2018| miles west of Brockville,and was attended by two preachers from Canada and sixty from New York state.This was known as the \u2018 Revival Conference.\u2019 Prominent among the pioneers of Methodism in these early days were Syl- vanus Keeler, Coleman Wooster, Wi.Brown, Samuel Coates, Luther Hough- ton, Father Vannest, Paul Glassford, John Reynolds, Marian Holmes and Wyatt Chamberlain.From this small beginning the\u2019 Methodist Church has grown until it assumes the vast proportions of to-day and wields a mighty influence for good in the community.LONDON CONFERENCE.Windsor, Ont., June 1\u2014The ministerial session of the London Conference opened yesterday morning, the Rev.W.Rigeby, of Blyth presiding, and the Rev.R.D.Hamilton, of Kingsville, acting as secretary.The day was devoted to ministerial work.* The Rev.Drs.Williams, E.Kershaw, Pascoe and Kenner asx for Ten young men are coming up for ordination and \u2018ten candidates for reception, The Rev.Mr.Ware;

Royal Electric, 18% ; Richelieu, 8% ; Colored Cotton, 9,.and Dominion Coal, common, 22 poroent-z War Eagle.76 cents; Payne, 60 cents; Montreal Street, 24% ; New Btock, 26, and Toronto Street, 7 percent.Altogether it will be seen that the tornover for the fiye months exceeded 8,380,000 shares,- of which the mining stocks acepuntted for nearly 2,700,000, i business far excéedirig that of any similar period in former years.The table has been carefully eom- piled, and will be useful to all who are concerned with local securities.\u2019 -\u2014\u2014 VACATION.Summer vacation season is approaching, and all who can afford it are considering where and how they can spend the precious holidays.To far inland dwellers, in crowded cities pent, the seaside has irresistible attractions, but to many with whom the question of expense is a first consideration, especially to those who have to take wives and daughters into account, the seaside is impossible.Next in attractiveness to the ocean are the mountains, and within easy reach of Montreal may be found abundant choice of localities for spending a pleasant outing.With holiday-makers, however, the first consideration ought to be rest and recreation, freedom from the ordinary trammels and conventions of business and society.To some, of course, it must be admitted it is no rest to get away from social life.Plato describes the human being as a hali-soul, restless till it finds the other half, and however little this condition may be recognized, it at & certain time of life instinctively underlies all the longings of the individual.It is a need which those who have the care of young people should in their plans no more ignore than they feel free to ignore the needs of food and clothing and fresh air.As great a wrong can be done in the one case as in the other.It is not, then, a thing to be scorned that, lacking anything better, many prefer the lively watering place, where they can continue to enjoy the pleasures of society under the freer conditions which are the charm of such resorts, to the seclusions.Those not embarrased by the need of being still in the world have the privilege of seeking more lonely and intimate communion with nature.None should fail to consider what they and their ehil- dren may gain spiritually, mentally and physically by holidays.spent close to the heart of nature.For every rightly-con- stituted person, free, wild, universal na ture.is a soutce of spiritual influences, exalting and \u2018exhilarating, which cannot be found in human intercourse.It has been well said that every great poet and- artist has a susceptibility .to spiritual influences from external nature which is the source of his marvel > o : PL EE TEE Coe PEER ER 200 peciine.Onethird | J THE MONTREAL 16055 power\u201d th Bhim And 6o \u2018elevate.The | | noblest.triumph of genius is not so müch the poem,- the picture, the statue, the symphony, as it is the heightened appreciation of the beauties of nature which the creations of genius bestow on all who come within their influence.But it is open to all to enter into communion with the grand and beautiful and \u2018look through nature up to natures God\u2019 This feeling, which is natural to the young, should be cultivated whenever possible by.city dwellers, who are none the lems susceptible to it because of partial privation of it.Parents owe it to their children thet this great book should be unsealed to the little ones, and we each owe it to ourselves that our souls should be refreshed and reinvigorated by renewed familiarity with its wonderful pages.Holidays spent without this influence are robbed of their greatest charm and their most healthy influence.rtf THE ALASKA BOUNDARY.The despatches of to-day contain onë more statement from Washington in re: gard to the hitch in the Alaska boundary negotiations.We think we may fairly regard this statement as officially inspired, ae, unlike the recent pretended semi-official statements, it confines itself to the one matter which is at present à subject of negotiation between the Brit ish and United States governments.amd upon the successful settlement of which the resumption of the conference in Quebec in.August depends.Even.in this however, there are obviously mistaken assumptions which the Washington administration could not be guilty of without impugning its own intelligence ; these are evidently the, additions of the reporter.It may be taken for granted, however, that the Washington Government did authorsze the statemeït that it \u2018did not question the accuracy of the statement of Sir Wilfrid Laurier in parliament.\u201d We hope and trust that ate titude, which is the correct diplomatie one between governments, is taken also from a real anxiety to reach an under standing upon the question.Sir Wilfgid Laurier, in making his statement in ne ply to the demand for information catised by the persistent campaign of falsehoit started in Washington, and echoed 3p New York, certainly took care to e383: erate the Washington administration-#pm the impoliténéss\u201d oË \u201chaving \u2014autirérilled bi Been Th \u2018shy Way Fesponsitile: for Wot campaign.\u2019 The Washington admini tré tion bed indeed already repudiated the assertions made by mischief:makers in its name, but unfortunately: the cam- peign of lies went on until publie opinion in Great Britain became worked up over the subject.This inspired statement, however, mekes the respective positions of the Canadian \u2018and United States governments perfeetly clear, except upon ofle point, on which there appears reason for explanation by the Canadian Government.The two governments are in perfect agreement as to the position in which the Alaska boundary question was left when the Commission adjourned at Washink- ton.The Commission had failed to agree upon a basis for the delimitation of the frontier, dr, in other words, to reach a friendly compromise.Canada and Greet Britain then made the direct and \u2018unconditional offer to submit the whole question to arbitration on exactly the same terms and conditions on which the United States had insisted \u2018upon Great Britain submitting the Venezuela boundary question to arbitration three years ago.The United States was not willing to accept this very reasonable proposition.It did not want to submit to the decision of à foreign umpire, which is absolutely necessary in order to cex- tainty of & settlement.It wanted the question submitted to an arbitration \u2018t equal numbers of Canadians and Amer: icans, a kind of arbitration which had just failed, for the Commission itself was such an arbitration.It has been claimed since that the United States of: fered to accept a South American umpire, but would not consent to a European one.Neither government had made any statement t3 this effect ; but we think it ought to be authoritatively denied or affirmed.As the United States.cldims a sort of protectorate over South America by its Monroe doctrine, of course the proposition to submit a dispute in which.it is concerned to arbitration of mations with which it has such relations is manifestly an indefensible one, as nations in such a position cannot be regarded as independent, The Canadian proposition to submit to arbitration not having been accepted by the United States, the conference having reached a deadlock, adjourned, leaving the Alaska boundary question to ordi- pary diplomatic negotiations, conducted through the Imperial Foreign and Colonial Office and the United States TORE EE \u201cDAILY WITNESS.; de Pratique.ori heme negotiations proved hcSesatul the Commission -was to meet again in August.Now it is in regard to these negotia- tlons that the excitement has betn raised.The Washington despatches which paraded as semi-official, and which caused the alarm, declared that the British and American governments had reached a fair basis for arbitration, which they implied were the same as those which the Canadian Government had offered at the time of the conference, but the Canadian Government, actuated by greed and in bad faith, had demanded new concessions, namely, the cession of Pyramid Harbor, on the Lynn canal, and a strip of territory back to the Yukon territory.This supposed new demand on the part of Canada caused some indignation against Canada-in Great Britain, as was its object.Sir Wilfrid Laurier met the demand for information by the statement es to Canada\u2019s position at the time of the break up of the conference, and declared that Canada still held the same position; was still willing to arbitrate on the terms then proposed.The inspired statement juet issued from Washington is a rejoinder to this, and is to the effect that while Sir Wilfrid's statement is correct, it applies only to the position at the time of the adjournment of the Commission, and that the position has been changed by the negotiations since conducted between the United States and British governments, and that it is to the agreement reached by the British dnd American diplomatists that Canada has added new conditions.We suspect that the United States Government found that by the Venezuelan conditions Dyea and Skaguay would not remain United States possessions in case they were found within British territory by the/arbitration, and that they tried to secure this concession in the diplomatic negotiations.Thereupon, Canada probably pointed out that in such case she.would be closed out from an entrance to the Yukon by the Lynn canal, and demanded in return the concession that in case the Lynn canal territory was found within the United States territory Pyramid Harbor and the strip of territory should be in any case ceded her.This was simply a demand for a concession corresponding.to that demanded by thé United States.The British Govern- tient \u2018probably regards Canada\u2019s demand % \u201cvilly \u2018reasonsble and just, ang stands bit: :- But Canada 16 quite willing tô waive \u2018all \u2018concessions and sbide by the offershe made at the close of the confer- énce to arbitrate the whole Alaska boundary question on the Venezuelan basis.That is a proposition so reasongble that it is difficult to see how the American and Government.can reject it.QUEBEC SHIP LABORERS.BOARD OF TRADE TAKES ACTION TO -NULLIFY ENFORCEMENT OF THEIR RULES IN THAT PORT.\u2018Quebèc, June 1\u2014The council of the Quebec Board of Trade \u2018has filed a formal appeal with the Attorney-General of the province to use the power with which be is clothed by law to prevent the enforcement in this port by the ship laborers\u2019 society of rules that are not consis tent with the public interest and the good of the trade of the port.At the same time the council has submitted a statement of the society's alleged recent tyrannical action, in the case of the S88.\u2018Lord Iveagh, and also a copy of Judge Routhier\u2019s recent judgment in the case of Dinan vs.Ward, strongly condemning the society and its rules as arbitrary, op- preseive and injurious to the port.A NEGRO ASSAULTED, \u2014 HIS CASE MAY CAUSE INTERNATIONAL COMPLICATIONS.Chatham, Ont., June 1.\u2014Charles W.Bird, a colored Chathamite, who recently went to Detroit, may figure in an international controversy.Bird was arrested in Detroit on a charge of insulting a.white lady.The evidence went to show at the trial that the man was arrested in mistake for another person.Besides this wrong, Bird alleges the police kicked and beat him at the time of the arrest.His injuries were such as vo confine him to bed for several days.His attorney is demanding redress and an appeal will, it is said, be made to the British lor at Washington, Bird claiming protection as a British subject._\u2014 BURGLARY AT ETCHEMIN.Quebec, June 1.\u2014The office of Atkinson\u2019s Mills, at Etchemin,- was broken into.on.Tuesday night, by burglars, who foroed the safe and took away some.$20 to.$25 in bank bills, nverlooking a -bag containing some $2,000 in silver quarters and half-dollars.THE POLICE COMMITTEE, Lending of City Detectivés-Dis- cussed, DEFINING THE: SUPERINTENDENT'S RESPONSIBILITY\u2014 STANDARD WEIGHT OF BREAD.The Police Committee met yesterday, with Ald.Marsolais in the chair, and all of the members, exeæpt Ad.Hcs, present.Some discussion took place on the question of the speed of the street cars but nothing was done.Ald.Jacqces thought that the general speed of the cars should be reduced, while Ald.La- reau favored the passing cL a rule mal ing it compulsory for cars to stop ai every cross street.Ald.Ames asked Chisf Hughez 1£ it was true that some dete-tives had been despatched out of the city.1f so, on whose orders, where and when?Chief Hughes\u2014By Mayor Prefontaine, to Acton Vale, the night before iast.Ald.Ames\u2014Were the Mayor's orders in writing?Chief Hughes\u2014No; he gave the orders by telephone.Ald.Clearihue\u2014It :s a good thing to be the Grand Trunk Company.They get property for nothing and police prctec- tion for nothing.Ald.Ames also asked if any of tbe city constables had Leen sent to lelp the company before last Monday.Tle chief replied that three o: four of them had been thus despatcned along the G.T.R.line.Ald.Clearihue\u2014We can afford to send our no around, yet everyhody complains that there are not cnough men in the force.Chief Hughes remarked that it had been decided some years ago that the by-laws authorized the Mayor to send the police out of the city.It was decided to call His Worship\u2019s attention to the matter.Ald.Lareau made a motion to the effect that the rule providing that appointments cannot be made in the.absence of any member of the committee be suspended and that the meeting proceed to the nomination of a clerk in the license department in the place of Mr.Gaston Hughes, who Tesigned some time ago.Aldermen Clearihue and Ames objected on the ground that standing rules of the committee could not be changed by mere resolution.It would not be fair to Ald.Roy that the meeting change a rél¢ without.giving him\u2019 a-getice \u201cAld.Lareat\u2019s motion wis lost od\u2019 {fie following division: For\u2014Aldermen La- reau and Jacques.Against\u2014Ald.Cleari- hue, Ames and Kineella.Ald.Ames gave the following notice of motion:\u2014 \u2018The superintendent of police shall be thoroughly cognizant of all the expenses disbursemente of the department, and no order for goods, materials or supplies or for any work or service shall be given except by him or with his authority, nor shall any account be presented to the Police Committee for ratification end payment until and unless the same shall have been duly certified by the superintendent, whose signature shall evr \u2018dence that he is personally cognizant of the fact that the goods, work, ete, were ordered in a regular er, that the quintity and quality thereof are satisfuc- tory and that the prices charged are reasonable and according to agresment.\u2019 \u2018Two petitions from bakers regarding the weight of bread were presented, One signed by forty-two bakers asked that the uniform standard weight for large loaves be four pounds, and for small ones two pounds.The other petition, signed by fifty-four bekers, asked thet the present by-law be centinued and enforced.This provides that the large brown loaf be six pounds and the white loaf four pounds.It was decided to discuss the question at length at a futcre meeting.QUEEN'S PARK TRACK.McDUFFEE WILL BE HERE SOON.\u2014 Providing the present weather holds, there is every indication of the Queen\u2019s Park track opening being a gigantic success next Saturday, when a bicycle pro-|* gramme woll worth witnessing will be gone through.Mr.Dandurand, the manager, is sparing no effort or expense to make the affair a success, and he has hit on an- excellent plan with the intention of inducing the fair sex to take a more lively interest in bicycle racing than has been the case hetetofore.He has had five thousand reserved seat tickets printed for the exclusive use of ladies at the opening of Queen\u2019s Park on Bat- urday, and as the street cars now run that way there is no reason why the crowd should not be a record one.Ladies can secure tickets at 246 St.James street.: Tom Esk has had his string of profes- gional flyers doing good work on\u2019 the track this week and Dunbar, the Strat- ford man, has also arrived and he will take part in the races.;

DECREASE OF THE PRO- * ¥\"YINCIAL SUBSIDY.+ \u2018The annual public meeting for the con- fétring of diplomas on teachers-in-train- Formal School took placé at thred pin yectesday in the as sembly hall af the High School, in which, when the students and their friends had assembled, \u2018there was very little room to spare.The audience was almost wholly feminine, and the fair young faces and fresh gowns formed a pleasing picture.The Hon, Superintendent of Public In- sstraction being unavoidably absent, Mr.Pirinalee; the secretary of the depart- mens, .presided.Dr.Peterson was one of several who were compelled to send regrets.: Proceedings opened with prayer by the \u2018Ven.Archdeacon Evans and a chorus by the students, after which Principal Rob- -ins submitted \u2018his annual report.He bringing yp: the total number of diplomas issued since the foundation of the school to 3,155, and the number of persons who have received diplomas to 2,186, The principal, remarking briefly on Lhe recent changes of the Normal School, said the government of the province, incited thereto by the general body of teachers, had determined by order-in-council that every diploma valid in Protestant schools should represent at least some definite professional training.As a necessary consequence, the giving of diplomas had been entrusted to 4.body of influential men, not all of whom were teachers appointed by the government, as the Protestant Central Board of Examiners, and armed with the needful control of the examinations.Unfortunately, the increased work of the Normal School had not been provided for by.any increase in its revenue.that of twenty years ago, while the annual subsidy voted by the legislature was less by upwards of $2,000.The princi pal then presented the candidates, who received their diplomas and prizes-at the hands of the chairman in accordance with the lists already published in our columna.: The valedictory on behalf of the graduating class was read by Mies Mabel A.Brittain.The principal and staff of professors were assured that while some of them might at times have appeared stated that during the session 25 teachers- in-training were admitted to the four months\u2019 course of training for elementary diplomas and to the full sessional course, 55 in the advanced elementary class and kindergartens, and 63 in the model school .class.Besides, 11 graduates and undergraduates of McGill University had attended the lectures in pedagogy, thus making the grand total of teachers-in- training 158.Of thesé, 25 persons were about to receive elementary diplomas, 53 advanced elementary diplomas, .three kindergarten diplomas, 45 model school diplemnas, and ll academy diplomes unréceptive and inattentive under the floodé of Knowledge and wisdom ehow- ered upon them, they had nevertheless perceived in some measure their teachers\u2019 conscientious fulfilment of their duty and unselfish devotion to their work, and the constant and unvarying kindness and good will of each and all.The valedictorian hoped it would not be thought that she was betraying the confidences of some of her class-mates if she took the opportunity of giving the professor in English a hint to have in readiness some of the certificates which he promised those excelling in the study of agriculture, of their qualifications as farmers\u2019 wives./ Their fellow-students were entitled to their thanks, for lessons of value learned through them, and not their fellow students only, but also the younger ones, whom it had been their privilege to The work done was double | children than\u201d was to be supposed fiom teach, for, as had been beautifully said by the Rev.Professor Clark Murray :\u2014 O truly spoke the ancient sage, \u2018Who traced the sources of his lore, Part to his teachers, and still more To fellowships of his own age, But found by far the richest store In that great harvest always growing, From seed he had been daily sowing Among the youth, \u2019 Who came with generous yearning To reap the ripe fruits of his learning, And gave him back a wiser .insight into truth.The desire to be remembered was one of the natural feelings of the human heart.They possessed that feeling in common with the rest of mankind, end with a view to gratifying it to some extent, and to leaving with their alma mater a monument and pledge of their Jove, they asked the authorities to accept from them, for the use of the Normal School, an engraving, entitled \u2018The Last Great Council of the West,\u2019 as a souvenir.of the sojourn in the school of the graduating class of 1899.The original painting; by Sydney P.Hall, was in the collection of the Right Hon.the Marquis of Lorne, of former Governor- General, who was one of the central figures in the picture, and who was still foremost among the friends and champions of Canada.A valedictory in French was also read by Miss Strang.The reply to these devolved upon Mr.W.A.Rafeeland, who took as his special theme: the negative and positive aspects of the rights of parents with respect to the instructors of their children.Parents, he asserted, had no right to expect more advanced instruction for their the certificate held ; the teacher should not be asked to correct faults committed at home.The parents had, however, a right to demand absolute cleanliness in the teacher's person and dress, and a high \u2018moral character.The speaker would himself be inclined to go 80 far as 10 maintain that teachers should be rez- tricted from certain habits and amuse- mente\u2014such as smoking, theatre-going, card-playing and dancing ; not that he would take away individual liberty, but in the case of one whom the young lonk- ed to as an example, it was very import- A rR EA Joe ant that there should be nothing that might by any method of: reasoning: lead some astray.Above all other accomplishments, pupils should be taught to think, and to think aright.As a rule, the boy who at school learned.to think grew up a credit to himæelf and a bless: ing to his fellows, while those who were \u2018never \u2018so taught droned through life and |.left.the world worse than they found it.Dr.R.Stanley Weir, the newly-ap- pointed recorder, being asked to speak, recalled his own stay at the McGill Normal School, and confessed a lively interest and affection in its welfare.Prins cipal Rexford also made a brief address, adding something to Mr.Kneeland\u2019s words of advice.Mr.Parmalee said that he would exercise the chairman\u2019s privilege of saying nothing, so that they might establish a record by keeping the exercises within the limits of two hours.The National Anthem was sung, and the gathering dispersed, the graduates not omitting a parting handshake with their loved and honored principal, whose jubilee has been one of the most pleasing features of their graduation year.LONDON ENCAMPMENT.\u2014 MAJOR HUTTON PLEASED WITH THE EFFICIENCY OF THE MEN.Cm London, Ont., June 1.\u2014Yesterday was taken up with general field movements at the soldiers\u2019 camp, and at the conciu- sion of the afternoon drill Major-General Hutton called the commanders of the regiments in the second brigade to headquarters and congratulated them on the general efficiency of tHe men.Only about four men were prostrated by heat yesterday, the weather being highly propitious for outdoor work.The officer commanding and Lieut.-Col.Hames have drawn up a survey of a sham battle it is intended shall take place next week.The Major-General has also decided: to hold a tattoo on the camp ground before he leaves, to which all the privates, as well as officers, will be invited.Last night all the bands gave open air concerts.\u2014 \u2014 BTS 8 ; ; MAJOR MARCHAND.uf prt Hero of Fashoda Approaching the French Capital PROGRESS FROM LYONS A TRIUMPHAL PROCESSION.Paris, June 1.\u2014The civil and military authorities and a big crowd of people went to the railway station at Lyons at one o'clock, in order to welcome Major Marchand, the African explorer, on his way to Paris from Toulon, and a great concourse began assembling around the depot here of the Lyons-Paris railway at an early hour to-day.Members of the League of Patriots arrived in wag- gonettes decorated with garlands and flags.A tremendous shout of \u2018Vive Marchand\u2019 announced the arrival of the popular idol\u2019s train at 9.10 am.A Vie- toria was sent by the Minister of Marine, M.Lockroy, to convey the Major to the Ministry of Marine, where a lunch wag given in his honor.The carriage was literally covered with flowers and had a tri-colored flag at eucn corner, while the coachman\u2019s whip was tied with tri-color ribbons, Major Marchand and the representative of the Minister of Marine, Lieut.Darriens, entered the vehicle, which, on emerging from the nailway station, was greeted with storms of cheering.All present, with the exception of the officers and non- comurissioned officers on the sidewalk, uncovered their heads as the explorer passed.The military men saluted in military fashion, Delirious enthusiasm marked every step of Marchand\u2019s progress along the Boulevard Dideret, to the Henn Quatre bridge.© On either step of the curriage \u2018stood a policeman, who kept the cxplor- \u2018er\u2019s frantic admirers from entering the vehicle.The Marchand procession, in which \u2018Were several carriages conveying non- commissioned comrades, and officers sent to greet the explorer, proceeded along the quays to the Boulevard St.Germain, headed by a detachment of horse guards.There was frantic enthusiasm along the entire route.The crowds, in spite of the efforts of the police, broke into the procession, cut off Marchand\u2019s carriage from the others and surrounded it, cheering and waving hats and sticks.Finally the procession arrived at the Place de la Concorde at a walking pace and stopped in front of the Ministry of Marine, where Marchand entered.The other carriages finally arrived with other members of the expedition.The crowd noticed there was no flag hanging from the Ministry of Marine, and shouted for one, whereupon the occupants threw a flag to the crowd.The police, however, seized it and prevented the flag from being attached to the Ministry building after some hard scuffling.The Minister of Marine and Major Marchand then appeared on the balcony and other members of the expedition followed, formed a group and repeatedly bowed to the spectators who acclaimed them until they were hoarse.The Place de la Concorde was black with people and the house on the Avenue de l\u2019Opera, at the corner of which the Military Club is situated, and the adjacent streets were decorated with flags, flowers, etc.\u2018Bquads of Municipal Guards, mounted and on foot, eventuslly cleared the Avenue de l\u2019Opera and diverted all traffic from it.Marchand and his companions then lunched at the Ministry of Marine, a fhumber of generale and admirals being among the guests.The explorers will be received by President Loubet at the Flysee Palace at three o\u2019clock this afternoon.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014p\u2014_\u2014 THE FILIPINOS, \u2014 PROTEST TO EUROPE AGAINST ALLEGED AMERICAN ATROCI- \u2014 London, June 1\u2014AÀ despatch from Rome says that the Filipino committee in Europe yesterday forwarded to all of the European governments and to Japan a special\u201d secret memorial under the \u2018date of May 29, protesting against the excesses of the Ameriean army in the Philippines, and enclosing sworn declarations of alleged barbarities committed by the Americans.The memorial, \u2018to protect weak nations against the tyranny of a mighty nation,\u201d requests the governments addressed to forward protests to the United States against the American excesses, with the object of compelling the Americans to submit to the rules of civ- lized warfare.Agoncillo, the Filipinc envoy, is now in Rome opposing the election of Father McKinnon as Bishop of Manilla, and urging the appointment of a native bishop.Aguinaldo contradicts the report of his death, and ridicules the idea of his committing suicide.Severe ting has taken place on the
