Tbe third day of President iMlcKinley's tour ended here tonigfat with a 'banquet at the St. Charles in hia honor. After brief stops at Vicksburgr end Jackson, (Miss., the train bearing the presidential party rolled into the station here this after noon. The streets in the immediate vicinity were packed with people. The governor, the state congressional dele gation, the mayor and a large commit tee of citizens greeted the president as he alighted. The party was- ; driven through the city to the St. Xiarles hotel. The mayor delivered a. brief and cordial welcome at the railroad station but there were no formal exercises un til the banquet at the St. Charles. All the military organizations of the city participated in the paradie wliich escorted Mr, McKinley to the hotel. At least 60,000 people filled the streets along the line of march. There was no demonstrative of welcome, but the great outpouring of the people attested their hospitality. The banquet tonight was most elab orate and ,r the president and members of the cabinet were tendered &xi ova tion. When the president arose to speak. he was greeted. with tremendous applause. His remarks were on a line with his utterances at Memphis and other points at which he delivered ad dresses. He was enthusiastically ap plauded throughout. Vicksburg, Miss., (May 1. Through ithe low, rich valley of the Yazoo the presidential special sped southward to New Orleans today. Although the president end his party did. not reach the train after the big demonstration at the Memphis banquet last night un til after 1 o'clock, the president was up early this (morning. Several times he appeared on the rear platform and acknowedged the cheer3 of the crowds at the small stations with a wave of his hand1. 'Among the members of the cabinet the president's speech last night, with its pointed allusion to the principle of eulbsidies as a means of enlarging the transportation facilities for the ex panding trade of greater America with the Shining picture he drew of the commercial possibilities in the Orient under the "opent door' policy in China to which his administration has se cured the adherence of the other pow ers. Is regarded as an exceedingly, im portant utterance and' one which will Instantly rivet the attention of the country. His reference to the action of the Tennessee legislature which half -a century ago claimed that the cotton trade of the Orient (belonged legiti mately to the jsoath, is considered par ticularly forcible. JH JI-W1' Vicksburg, with Its smarming memo- ries of the civil war, was reached at 8:30 clock. - i l In reply to the welcome extended by the mayor and citiaena the president spoke as follows: It gives me very great pleasure to receive the official greeting of the (mayor anil, the warmi heart touch! of th people as they give u greeting to tills historic city. ,The highest expres eion of MtlsfacUont, at this most cor diai' receptiooi : Ss in the- single .wort that you make toe feel at borne g(reat applause); - Nowhere - fa my native tate;cf Ohio could g TefelTO jwarmef;f or more ftincere welcomev than have received.. at : the, bands and from the 4m Brtiken FmtiEE is nothing bo annoyinj W peop v vr & niMUItT of work is tnl line. 4: It don t matter how complicated they are we can dnpueate them on anors notice. jBTX BXAMINaTIOlfs FfiKK. -: ir- it m rr VS fy.'r:'flclentli!c Cf.v I'lm, "Optician Opposite Postoflcft' x- T 4 Patton Avenue gvoroHasseur (Aeers)and In the oawaxien tml tatsi & mrt9pB lean only make my acknowledgKnents and: congratulate -j you one and all, that yon share in that traiyersas prosperity and contentment so characteristio at this tSme of every part oi-'our comiinon!-ciuitr7: (gret applause). - lafMi - "We know that whatever others may ay or think this to us and for.

Ta one and all I return my sincere and heart felt thanks and leave you the wish for your happiness and your prosperi ty." (Great applause. This was the first time a president had visited Vicksburg since the days of Zachary Taylor and the inhabi tants made it one of the greatest events in their life's history: The par ty disembarked just outside of the city at the National cemetery, which is located on the site -of the place where Pemberton surrendered to Grant, at the end of the memorable forty days' siege. It is a beautiful, well kept park of 80 acres, on the side of a bluff under the ruins of old Fort Nogate. Six teen thousand union dead are buried here. The party drove through the cemetery and from the Grant-Pember-ton monument obtained a fine view of the Mississippi and here was pointed out to the president the projected Ta zoo canal, by which the people of Vioksburg expect to divert the flow of the Yazoo into the Mississippi at this point and restore the harbor lost in 1878, when the river changed its course and almost stranded the city. From here the party moved Into the crowded flag-festooned city. President and Mrs. McKinley were in an open barouche, which was swathed even to the wheels in the national colors. The procession passed under a pic turesqnes arch of cotton bales sur mounted by Spanish daggers, on which was the word "Expansion." At the court house square, which was also elaborately decorated, the president "was introduced by Mayor (Trowbridge , an addressed Wily-10,'. OtJP people. His remarks created much enthusiasm. Jackson, tMlss., (May 1. Thei presi dential train arrived here at 11 o'clock sharp, fifteen minutes ahead of time. Acres of people, democrats, republi cans, white and black, had congregated at the depot and gave the president a royal welcome to Mississippi's capital. Governor liOngino welcomed the presi dent on hebalf of the people of the state. McKinley expressed delight at , the cordial reception and the fifteen minutes stop here was heartily en- joyed.

Pearson, formerly of the Boer army, requesting the presfldenit to in quire Into the allegations in connection with the shipment of horses and mules from New Orleans to the British in South Africa, has been received' at the state department. Pearson maintains that the shipments are contrary to the neutrality features of the treaty of Washington for the settlement of the Alabama claims.

Field Marshal Von Waldersee, in the letter (which, he sent to the ministers today, as the reply of the generals to the views of the min isters regarding the military questions discussed by the generals in conference says a garrison of 6,000 men should be left at Tien Tsin and the adjoining district, Great (Britain, France, Ger many and Japan to contribute 1,400 men eachi and Italy to vontribute 400 men. j-o jgarnson Sban Hai Kwan, France, Russia, Great Britain and Germany are to contribute 300 men each and Italy one. company untfll the forts are razed.

When the troorjs duced to two thousand by the granting of possibly a quarter of the conces sions, the question of absolute Chinese administration may be considered. The creation of a chief command is desirable for purely mtiliitary reasons, as in oases or ousorder or troubles of any kind military measures must take place where these troubles occur and the authority of the commander-in- chief must also extend to the legation guara at Jfeklru Count Ton Waldersee thinks flip min ister's statement that there had neveT been a military organization An, PeVi as troops -with banners could not be considered as such, to tv i his investigation showed that a strong garrison or troops was at Pekln, with itne latest modern arms.

The generals were; unani mously of the opinion that the ques tion would be more speedily solved If the ministers would treat separately regarding the amount of indemnity, and the method of raising it. The second part of this question, must take, many months (before solution can be found. on account of the difficulty of the mat ter. If the question of Indemnity is considered first and China expresses her willingness and ability to pay. the moment will have arrived to commence the evacuation', the execution of which will require several monthsj so the re duction, will be very gradual .The sren- erals are convinced that two thousand men at Pekln, 1,500 at Shan Tai "Wwan and 3,000 men on the railroad and alto gether, 12,500 men, with ithe fleets at Taku and Shanghai will be a fully suf ficient force to compel China to accept the demand for and manner of oay- ment of the indemnity.

DEWEY AND OFFICERS CELEBRATE ANNIVERSARY Washington, (May J Admiral Dewey, 23 officers and three civilians who wsre with him in thlbattfeof Manila cele brated the third anniversary of that (engagement, with a dinner tonight at the Raleigh' Ihotel. There was nothing formal about ithe affair. Among those present were Wildes, of Boston, and Capt. Lamberton, Dewey's chief staff. The stars and stripes1 floated over Dewey's residence today. The admir al's Chinese servant who was with him in the battle of Manila Jiad put it there without instructions and the admiral let it stay. LARGEST FLOATING DRY DOCK- Washington, May 1. The-big float ing doiak to be located at Algiers, near New Orleans, is practically completed and! Adimiral Endicott, who designed the structure, went to Baltimore todky to inspect it. It is the largest floating dry dock r the rworld', lamd' now that it is complete quite a problem' arises as to how it is to be floated! down the Atlantic coast and into the gulf of Mexico iup to Al giers. As it is more than half sub merged- the towing of such a vast and unwieldy bulk is a formidable under takdimg. The start will be made some time in September, a number 6f power ful tugs being utilized. The dock is 525 feet long, 100 feet across the entrance, iwtth a depth of 28 feet over the siU. Its Mftitag capacity is 15,000 tons. YESTERDAY'S tEAGUE GAMES.
