Loidon, July 11. The Emperor of
Germany remained at the Bute ball
given at Buckingham Palace until t
o'clock this morning. After he ate
breakfast he attended to business with
hia secretaries He afterwards review
ed ths Yeomen of the Guard.
LoaDOR. Julv 11. The Emperor and
Empress and their snitea at 8 o'clock
left London by rail for Wimbledon
Station to witness the big event of the
day a teview of England's volunteer
soldiey. From Wimbledon Station
the i oute to tbe parade ground wan lav
ishly decorated with flowers in almost
endless profusion. Early in the morn
ing the British volunteer regiment axa
regiment of regular who were detailedto
assist In tho parade, began to arrive
at Wimbledon from all direction. With
the early regiments orowda of paopls
from London and the country flocked
towards Wimbledon, the common old
creedmoorof England, and began to
take up favorable positions irom wnicn
to see troops.
Regiment which were among th
first to arrive did so In a smart soldiery
like manner. It was evident at a glano
that their commanding offioers had
done their utmost to turn out the "citi
zens soldiery " in a olean out and busi
ness like a manner a Dossible. The men
themselves appeared to have seconded
their officers' endeavors to the utmost
of their abilities and seemed to be de
termined to make as good a show as
possible before the Emperor, who had
been reported to have remarked that he
did not care to see "Tradesman mas
querading as soldiers."
I he weather was glorious, me em
bai katfon of the troops upon the railroad
trains was accomplished in quiet order,
and a soldiery manner. Many of the
volunteer legiments in order to
show the Emperor that they were not
euch "rear rankero' as some people sup
posodrpreferred to march iu full neavy
marching order all tbe way to Wimble
ion tuftoad of taking tbe car ana in
not a few cases back again to their reg

Drserons. LhIiCi-i.. Hi zzars and Artil
lery nrlvcd earlv in the day and those
picked eavalrymen weie soon followed
by tie regular Infantry of the line, and
after them came Ine urenaaier uuara,
Cold Stream Guards, and Scott Fusilier
Guards.
If these real It fine troop were well
received by the crowd which bad by
that time gathered on Wimbledon's
ward, it was as nothing to the applause
with which the irallant Highland regi
ment, England's bonnie Scot, march
ed to the front with bag pipe playing.
By S 80 p. m., all regular!, number
ing from 9 000 to 7,000 men, were In
positions assigned to them, and th
volunteers were tttll pouring la living
strekmi upou the common. Tha entire
body of troop was under the suprem
command of His Royal Hlghaoej, Dak
of Cambridge, Commander in Chief of
the British army ana troops, eeumatea
at about 16 000 volunteers, and about
7,000 regulars. This force was divided
into two brigades of infantry under the
command of the Duke of Cannaught
and of Sir Evylyn Wood, K. O. B re
spectively. At 4 o'clock the artillery
thundered out a salvo and the German
Imnerial Standard was run up on the
flag staff ;at the reviewing stand in
place of the British Standard. Almost
immediately afterwards the Emperor
of Germany, aooompanied by Prinoe of
wale and a stall in Driuiant unuorms
and followed by an escort of the Life
Guards dashed up to the saluting point
in gallant style, the horses thundering
over the sward, e ffloers' and soldiers'
arms flashing and clashing with war
lijie harmony. Arriving at the saluting
point the Emperor and his party drew
rein, and as the Emperor saiutea ne
was received by the Duke of Cambridge
and staff, while a rotal salute was fired
by the artillery. The Emperor was
mounted noon a magnificent black
charger and was dressed In the uniform
of a field marshal of the White Ouira
Bier.
The Emperor, followed by hi staff
and by that of lb Duke of Cambridge,
proceeded to inspect the British regulars
and volunteers. After this inspection
which seemed to Impress tbe ISmperor
with a favorable opinion of the soldiers
equipment, the ruler of Germany rod
back to the saluting point. A soon as
the Emperor was seated in front of this
point with tne Liute oi utmDrun near
him and with their two staffs behind
them, the march commenced and lasted
an hour and a half. Not only the Em
peror, but the German military critic
behind him were of the opinion tnat
the march past was performed in
splendu! style. So much was the Em
petor loipreeaed with tbe soldierly ne
havior ot the volunteers tbat on several
cocaeions ho "ld essed complimentary
remarks to tfnos in command of dif
f erent oorpt wnich met with his warm
e-it approval, referring in warm term
to the smartness of tbe men appear

Raleiob, N. C, July 11. Lett night
Clarence Bus bee was released from '
oustody by the Chief of Polio aad at
now at th horn of hi mother, ha thla
city. It I not thought that any oriaal
nal action will be brought against him,
and that a full compromise will b
offered today.
The county commissioner will hav
a special meeting next Monday for the
fmrpose of selecting some person to
ook after the county's exhibit at th
Interstate exhibition. It ia aader
stood that th expense taearrad by
uoh an agent will be exclusive of the
appropriation of $3,000 recently made.
At a meeting of the board of alder
men last night a proposition to estab
lish a better accommodation bureaa for
service at th exposition was favorably
reported upon by the flaanoe oommlttee.
Tbe report will doubtlees be adopted.
There i undoubted authority for th.
statement that the New aad Observer,
of thla oity, will, in a abort tun, appear
as an eight column paper, wun new
type and general outfit. Thla expend!
ture, aa we learn, is fully justified by
the increased circulation and popularity
of the journal, both of which are oa the
inoreaee.
The member of the Railroad Commie
sion will leave here next Monday, oa a
tour of inspection In the Western part
of the State. It ie the evident intention
of the board to look well into the affair
of all the corporation in the matter of
assessment for taxation, and to "go
low," but share.
Tbe Board of Alderman hav concur
red in a proposition of tbe finance oom
mittee to annrnnriate f 150 toward do
fraying the expense of the Governor
guard to Wrightsvllle. The amount ia
rather small, but will belp out oonsid
ibly.
1 he Onvernnr this mornina granted a
requisition from the Governor of Vir
ginia, for the rendition of G. T. Keen,
of Buncombe, for larceny.
It would do better for an interest!
to send the application for direct taxes
to Phil II. Andrews of this city, who.
under direction of Governor Holt, ha
entire charge of the matter of verifying
the olaiin and having tbe warrant
made out. When applications are sent
or delivered at tbe Executive offloe,
thev have to be turned over to Mr. Aa-
drew before any action i "
way of payment. By sending tknt to
Mr, Andrews direct it wiU facilitate
payment. He has an office sot epar w
