1893. AT THE WORLD'S PHIL The Turkish Tillage Dedicated With Oriental Ceremony. A GOLDEN SWITCH KEY. It Will Be Fsed by the President to Start the Wheels. Orsjaa Preparing Her Liberty Bell's of tbs Columbian Celebration at New York With a Street Parade and Feasting.

CHICAGO, April Turkish village on the Midway Plaisance, at the World's fair, was dedicated today in the presence of 2,000 or more invited guests and included representatives of the sultan. Persians, Bedouins and members of the Arabic Order of the Mystic Shrine. A procession was formed, led by Arabian horses and camels, through the streets to the mosque, which the faithful Mussulmans only are allowed to enter and in which religious services were held. Subsequently there was a least in which all Turkish delicacies were served. The enthusiasm of the faithlul and their guests was not marred in the slightest by the ceaseless drizzle which prevailed in the severest form during the parade.

After the ceremonies in the mosque were completed the remainder of the day was given up by the Mussulmans to enjoyment in their own peculiar way. The storm in its effect npon the general work at the exposition grounds was overcome by the determination to have the great tair in the most complete condition possible on the opening day. Not a man stopped work, indoors or out, and the preparation of the grounds, Duiidinga and exhibits is as far advanced as would have been the case if the day had been the fairest of the fair. The button which President Cleveland will touch on Monday to start the machinery arrived today. It is the shape of a modern telegraph key, of solid gold, with an ivory button handle.

It sits on a pyramid of bine and gold plush, on the base of which are the figures in silver. After a long contest in secret the piano trouble was settled this afternoon by the committee appointed by the national commissioners to settle the affair. At today's meeting the committee heard a number of gentlemen, headed by Ford W. Peck, who represented Theodore Thomas' side of the question. The hearing and argument were in secret, and were long and earnest, and at the conclusion the committee decided that no piano not exhibited would be allowed within the grounds.

As a result Paderewski will be obliged to select one of the makes in the piano exhibit or refuse to play. The woman's building will be formally completed tomorrow afternoon by the driving of a gold nail by Mre. Potter Palmer in the arch of the assembly room. It will be driven by a gold and silver hammer, ana will later form part of a breastpin to be presented to Mrs. Palmer.

The Massachusetts state building, a reproduction of the old John Hancock house, was opened this afternoon informally in the presence of a few guests invited by Commissioner E. C. Hovey. The dedicatory ceremony was held last fall. Seventeen Koreans arrived today from San Francisco, among them the minister to Washington City and the royal commissioner to the World's fair.

At the meeting of the national commissioner! this afternoon the Sunday closing question was dug up and buried again. Commissioner E. V. Tousley, of Minnesota, moved to withdraw from the judiciary committee the resolution of Eiboeck, of lowa, referring the matter of Sunday opening to the local directors. Tousley said the matter of opening the gates had been settled once, and he saw no reason for bringing it up again.

Eiboeck opposed the withdrawal, believing that the gates should be open if it could be shown that the act of congress was contrary to the laws of Illinois. After considerable discussion Tousley withdrew his resolution, and the matter disappeared from view once more. I'nusual activity was exhibited in the west wing of the horticultural building this morniLg, where a largo torce is busily engaged placing in position the monster fruit exhibit of Oregon. This exhibit will be one of the finest state displays on the grounds. In the center of the space allotted to Oregon a great pyramid fifty feet long and forty-five feet high is to be built.

This pyramid composed of thirty-two different kinds of woods grown in. Oregon, is built in a spiral shape with projecting ledges, upon which will be placed a large, fine variety of preserved fruits. The men had just started to work on the pyramid when a dray pulled up at the door containing a picture to be used for a background of the Oregon booth. This picture was painted by Stanley, and portrays Mount Hood, Oregon. April The hull of the gunboat Serapis, the flagship of Commodore Barney's flotilla in the war of 1812, has located at the bottom of the Fatuxent river, at the opening of Chesapeake bay.

The old boat will be raised the expense of the Washington City Historical Society and several patriotic Marylanders and sent to the World's fair. A diver has been over the sunken boat, and although it has been sunk seventy-nine years it is sound enough to be raised. The boat is seventy-three feet long and thirtythree feet wide. INDIANAPOLIS, April Liberty bell arrived here from Cleveland this morning and was greeted by 12,000 school children, each carrying a flag. Alter viewing the patriotic relic the children marched with the Philadelphia committee to the capitol.

where many thousand people were assembled. The children sang patriotic songs and ex-President Harrison delivered an address to the children, outlining the of the congratulating his hearers on the growth of patriotism in this country and predict. nu an increase in reverence for the flag in coming years. CHICAGO, April Amid ablaze of skyrockets and Roman candles, and welconied by the shouts of crowds of people, the westward journey of the old liberty bell came to an end tonight. The reception at the depot was informal only, the only official delegation being a squad of police.

A reception, however, had been accorded the famous relic and its distinguished escor tby a special committee trom the city council and the World's fair committee on ceremonies, who met the train bearing the bell at the state line. Disposition of Teaeole. NEW YOEK. April that the Columbian naval review has been officially completed than naturally is a considerable amount of speculation as to what is to be dona with several ships in the United Btates fleet. One of the officers who came on from Washington City today made out this skeleton programme and was strongly impressed that it would be carried out in nearly the manner in which he outlined it: The San Francisco and Charleston to go back tothePaeifle station; the Baltimore and Bsnnington to go to China; the Newark, as flagship, the Atlanta and Concord to form a new European squadron; the Chieago, as flagship, and the York town to go to Brazil er South Atlantie stations; the Philadelphia, as flagship, the Mlantonomoh, Kearaarga, Detroit, Vesuvius and Cashing to form the North Atlantie squadron, and the Dolphin will take the place of the wrecked Dispatch as a yacht lor the president and secretary of the nary.

PABADI OF THI HABINII. The Closing Brent of Calimku Celebration nt Mew Tork. NEW YOSI, April Yesterday the metropolis glorifieu Colambas npon the element which bore him to our shores. Today the glorification is transported to the land of the new world which he discovered. the city smiled through its tears.

Today the smiie is still there, bat the tears have vanished. Strains of martial music have filled the place vacated by the pandemonium of ear-splitting whistles and the thunderous roar of death-dealing dogs of war. It was as though a gigantic naral power had descended on our peaceful shores; visited thereon its wrath in a bombardment of shot and shell; then capitulation; then a landing of its victorious naval forces, and marching through our thoroughfares. There is more truth than imagination in the simile, for Manhattan island is as completely occupied by a naval force as though attained by conquest. Instead of the tattered dags of battle, however, they bear the olive branch, and are marching in line with our own state troops, and arq greeted with cheers and shouts of welcome.

The invaders marched through solid walls ot human beings and every point of vantage on window, roof or other point overlooking the line of march was thronged to (he utmost capacity. It was an admiring crowd, cheer.ng everybody and everything, from the gold-bedecked officers to the jolly tars. Not since the British evacuated New York has such an occurrence been witnessed here and in no country but ours is such an occurrence possible. With muskets at their shoulders and small arms by their sides, foreigners invaded our soil and marched down Amerca's greatest street, Broadway. Grim, fiercer looking Russians, sturdy Britone, ruddyfacedGermans, Frenchmen and dark-visaged Italians, marched file after file, with their own officers commanding and their own bands playing the airs they loved best.

But they were our captives. Our marines and blue jackets preceded them and our National Guard followed their rear. The art of peace had superseded the strategy of war, and armed forces of nine nations marched our streets as though our country and theirs were one and we were brothers. The sailors and marines came ashore trom their vessels and formed on Fortysecond street, from the west shore of the ferry toward Sixth avenue. The whole of the First brigade of the state national guard and naval reserves of New York and Massachusetts turned out at the word of command.

The reviewing stand waa erected at Madison Square and the city hall park, from which the admirals, officers of the vessels and other invited guests viewed the parade. Gov. Flower rode at the head of the procession, followed by details from the United States army and engineer corps; then came the admirals and other officers in carriages, and foreigners escorted by United States officers. Following these came the first division, consisting of United States sailors and marines, led by a marine band. The second division contained the sailors of visiting fleets and marines of Great Britain and Holland, the only two nations represented, besides ours, which have marines.

Following the British in the order named came the sailors of Argentine, Russia, Holland, France and Germany, but no Spanish sailors were in line. Next to the foreign came the naval reserves of New York and Massachusetts, with the state National Guard bringing up the rear. The column moved down Forty-second street into Fifth avenue, and down that thoroughfare to Waverly place, thence to Broadway and down Broadway to the city hall, where Gov. Flower left the column and with Mayor Giiroy and other city officials and visitors reviewed the parade, which disbanded in lower Broadway. The governor then received visiting admirals and other officers in the governor's room in the city hall.

President Cleveland did not assist at the review. He drove to the stand but the parade was late, and he was compelled to take the train for Chicago before the head of the column reached the stand. In getting into the carriage at the hotel to drive to the reviewing stand the president struck his head against the carriage door, abrading the skin on his forehead. A doctor at the hotel dressed the wound, and after a delay of ten minutes the president proceeded. BAKQUKTINO THE ADMIRALS.

The Cspikcaf to Festivities la the City of New York. Niw YORK, April Chamber of Commerce banquet tonight put an appropriate capsheaf to the festivities incident to the naval review. Amoug the invited guests present were the British, French, Russian, Brazilian and Argentine admirals, three American admirals, and the commanders of the German and Dutch vessels in the fleet. Thev were guests of honor. The other guests were Secretary Herbert, the governors of Sew York and Illinois, the mayor of New York and the members of the foreign legations.

The British and French ambassadors and the Italian minister sent their regrets. as did also the Earl of Aberdeen. The banquet was held in the main dining room of the Hotel Waldorf. Covers had been laid for 400. When it is mentioned that the price set for the dinner was f'2s per plate, it will be readily understood that the dinner was worthy of the occasion.

Nothing waa attempted in the way of decorations. Nevertheless the scene was a brilliant one. The oratory was anort, witty and pointed. Alexander E. Orr, first vice president of the Chamber of Commerce, presided.

International fraternity was tha general burden of the speeches. "Germany" was proposed by Joseph H. Cuoate. Britain" was gracefully honored by Bishop Potier. Ex-Secretary Fairchild proposed "Brazil," ex-Judge Howland and E.

Ellery Anderson "Italy." Gen. Horace Porter, in his own happy vein, gave "Spain," Elihu Root "Argentine Republic," Fred de Peyster "The Netherlands" and ex-Secretary of the Treasury Foster "France." North Carolina Squatter Trouble Kaded. KALKIOH, N. April 2H. troops were ordered away from James City this morning by Gov.

An Interpreter Sent for to Facilitate Better Examination. Prlnee Roland Bonaparte on the Sound Port Angeles Reservation Papers for Boodle Banker Sehwarta Issued. Porr TowNsnrn, April The Northern Pacific steamship Victoria, thirteen days from Yokohama, arrived this morning, and departed at 10 o'clock for Tacoma. The Victoria has 360 Chinese, two Japanese and ten white passengers. Of the Chinese passengers, 200 pretend to be Chinese actors, en route to the World's fair, and are duly armed with forged certificates purporting to be signed and issued by American consuls in China.

Collector Wasson contends that thd evidence is plain that the Chinese are forearmed with forged certificates. He applied to the treasury department for an American interpreter, who will arrive in Tacoma tomorrow night from San Francisco, and the examination will commence Saturday afternoon or Monday morning. A force of custom inspectors accompanied the Victoria to Tacoma today to guard against the escape of any Chinese passengers. Dr. Conover and Dr.

Baldwin made a thorough examination of each passenger on the steamer and not a single case of sickness was reported. The physicians pronounce the passengers in splendid health. Pobt Towxsesd, April In reply to a telegraphic request that lector Wasson be empowered to appoint deputies without compensation for the purpose of registering Chinese under the Geary exclusion act, the following telegram waa received today from Washington City: The secretary declines to authorise the appointment ot deputies for the purpose named. J. W.

MASON. Commissioner. The request waa made because the internal revenue officers, who are generally empowered to regiater Chineae, were onable to visit the lower Sound to give the Chinese there a chance to comply with the law. The deputy who waa detailed for this duty ia ill in Tacoma, and eeveral Chineae who are anxious to comply with the provisions of the act are apprehensive leat May 6 passes before they are afforded an opportunity to register. There are between' 600 and 800 Chinese ontheloweg Sound who are thus affected.

A small portion, however, will comply with tha law. Returns as Counted by on Mayor. EVIBFTT, April question ot incorporation was voted upon at the special election held yesterday, and carried by a vote of 670 for incorporation to 99 against. Following ia tha ticket elected: Dwyer. fusion.

When complete the cabinet will have about 150,000 different pieces of wood, every piece being of a different natural color from the one next to it, and it will represent seven months' work. Each small piece, generally as thin as a shaving, is placed on its edge, and thus a veneering is formed a little over a sixteenth of an inch thick, which is fastened to a thin ooard. They are also at work on an interlocked frame.
