The Ceremonies Postponed Several Hours The j Programme Carried Out in Detail Amid Boomjng of Cannon The final Salute from all the AVar Ships The President's Re ception. New York, April 27. All New York awoke this morning to find a steady downpour of rain ushering in the day of the great pageant. A chilly northeast wind added to the discomfort, and sonfff 100,000 people, who had arranged to new the grandest marine spectacle ever presented in American waters, were dis appointed. The rain, however, did not keep all at home. There was a steady stream toward North river all the morn ing and hundreds of excursion boats, steam yachts, tugs and other craft were filled with sight-seers who were not kept at home by the disagreeable weather. Other crowds who sought places along the docks, on the tops of buildings and at Riverside park pladded through mud and stood in pools of water with um brellas and mackintoshes keepingout portions of the wet. 1 At 10:30 o'clock the signal boat dish ing started out and, running along side each vessel in the line, carried informa tion, that the review was postponed un til 1 o'clock p. m. The postponement was ordered by Secretary Herbert at the suggestion of the President. The excur sion steamers put back to the docks. The blowing of hundreds of whistles and the booming of guns at 1 :15 o'clock announced that the President had em barked, and almost instantly-the crews of the men-of-war all along the line went to position' facing the rail and : at tne mastneaas ana topsails, ine rain had ceased, and, while the clouds hung low over head, there were indications that led anxious spectators to hope for tne appearance ol the sun. At luSO o'clock the first boom of a ten inch gun on the Maintonomah an nounced that the Dolphin with the President on board was passing up between the two columns of war vessels. The roar of the Miantonomah's twenty- one guns was was followed by a salute from the Brazilian ships Republica and Tiradentes. The Dolphin replied to the Brazilians and a cloud of smoke rose over the lower end of the line of war ships. The Brazilians manned the yards just before the firing and the long lines of blue jackets stood out against the white background of smoke. The Dol phin moved at a slow and stately gait and the salute of each ship was distinct and sharp. The Aquidaban, the flagship of -the .Brazilian fleet, hmshed the sa luting at 1:40 o'clock and the Nueva Es- pana took its turn. The Dolphin was followed at a dis tance of about 500 feet by the Blake and she in turn by the Miantonomah. At 1.44 o'clock the Seeadler, of the German fleet, fired her first gun. She was fol lowed a moment biter by the Reina Re- gente, of the starboard column, and the twoships.one on each side of the Dolphin, made the welkin ring. The Kaiserin Augusta joined the chorus, and the echoes rolled up he Palisades and down a cram, until one seemed to hear a long Hue of artillery reaching for miles on the jersey shore, the bands on the ship3 played national airs, but it was only at intervals between the roar of the gun3 that the music could be heard. The von Speyke and Infanta Isabella's salutes ran into each other. There was a pause for a moment and Argentine s cruiser belch ed f opth a flash that was responded to bv the big &uns on the Giovanna Buson It was 1 :53 o'clock when the Concord enoke, and she spoke so rapidly that her salute was done in two minutes. The Etna paid her respects next. Then, after a 6hort pause, a light blue puff arose above the dynamite tubes on the Vesu vius and a few seconds later there was a dim overhead as though the sky was mails nf sheet iron and a bomb had struck it. People at the foot of Fifty ninth street had not recovered from their embarrassment when a sharp tongue of fire shot out from the side of the Jean Bart and there was a report that made women scream and windows rattle aiong the river frynt, ! At. a .-i'elock the Yrorktown and Are- tlmsfl saluted toe-ether" gun for gun. Then theie was an interval during which the bands could be heard playing, and ti,A rhf-era of the sailors reached the shore. The Chicago then opened fire and a moment later the Russian Rj-nda added her guns to the chorus, ine rai tti-.n A and General Admiral followed. At 2:08 o'clock the Tartar, the first of the British ships, saluted, The guns; of the. Bancroft and San Francisco- vyere at the same time. The British Magicienne and the Atlanta fired almost simultaneously. Tha Dolphin lessened her speed as she approached the head of the line and tnere was an interval tie thfi firiner from ships. Each ves sel began saluting as the Dolphin's bow came abreast. Ten minutes after she had nasaed the jack tars came down from their positions. It was just 2:12 o'clock as England s crack cruiser, ,the Blake fired her first gun. There was a big puff of smoke and a deep boom entirely different from I the sharp spund of the guns of the smaller vessels. The Philadelphia saluted as the Dolphin reached the hefid of the line ana came to a stop- just in wie tea tff ine (. u,i veld. At the same time au the glean boats, tugs and pleasure craft blew their whistles and made a din almost as tleaf- enine- as -the saluting. There was .- heerinar and waving of hats, handker chiefs and umbrellas and the triumphal procession of the Presidential party was ended. The whistles sent up a cloud of stenm which, added to the smoke of the truns, obscured ti3 yjew of a large por tion of the rivef. . The admirals of the different sfuad roons then embarked in steam launches and proceeded to the Dolphin. At 2:i!0 o clock the merchant marine was sitmalled to get away. The Seabird with the committee on board rounded the head of the double column of nien-of war and started down the river on the New York side. The Al Foster followed and the police patrol tugs fell in line two hv two. Alter tnem came tugs, steam. boats and steam yachts, two and thre abreast and all with whistles blowing men shouting n4 women waving para- cols as thev passed eaen man-oi-war. fhe commotion that followed had neVer been equalled in Hudson river. Liouas of steam rose from tugs and blew across the . men-of-war. Th crews of tha men-of-war faced the rail and waved hats and handkerchiefs at the noisy tugs and steamboats as they passed. Several steam yachts saluted the -men-of-war with one gun which sounded like a toy pistol after the big r,ins of the men-of-war. The whistles fV.j Hitra and steamers kept up a con tinual tooting and blowing from" the t;m fho-c werfi ven permission to start until the lower end of tha long line ! of the squadron was reached. The monotony of the noise of whistles was varied by the sirens on several fcuffS and fire ..boats Thfi nassentrflrs on the steamboats crowded to the side toward the men-of-war and many of the steamers seemed in imminent danger of careening. They went down the river with -.- one paddle wheel in the air and the guards under the water and starboard deck awash. In the procession of boats were steamers from Albany and Troy, from Long Island sound, from Shrewsbury river, Newark, N. J. , Staten Island ferry boats; and boats from hundreds of near-by points. One ocean steamer, the Roanoke, of the Charleston line, was even pressed into service and the lighthouse tenders, cus tom house boats and barges towed by puffing tugs were numerous. i The reception of the admirals by President lasted until 4:40 o'clock p. Then his flag was hauled down on the m. the Dolphin and he went ashore at Ninety sixth jstreet and at a signal from the Phil adelphia the guns of the entire fleet belched forth simultaneously. Each vessel fired twenty -one shots and the roar that they made was deafening: When it subsided, smoke hung in heavy clouds over-the river, and the Jersey shore was invisible for some minutes. The admirals returned ., to their ships and the steamboats which still lingered with passengers j de sirous of seeing all of the great naval pageant, went to their piers and the ceremonies were over. j From the time the President started on his tour through the lines until the final salute was fired, the weather) was cloudy, with rain. The air was cold and unpleasant. The wind came out of, the northeast. It was ah improvement upon the forenoon, btit it was not a pleasant day on the river and on the exposed points of vantage along the shore. J GLADSTONE IN" DANGER. I A Humor That an Attempt was Made to Shoot Him in St. James Park. London, April . 26. The Pall Mall Gazette to-day ; contains a most sensa tional article beaded "Rumors of an At tempt to Slioot Gladstone," the type used for the headlines being the largest in use for that purpose. The paper states that an alleged attempt upon the Prime Minister's life was made while Mr Glad stone was walking through St. James Park at midnight last night on his way to his home in Downing street. ,;The accuracy of the report of the Pall Mall Gazette is doubtful. It is probable that the story is based upon the fact that a man now in custody on the charge of firing a revolver in the public thorough fare had in one of his pockets a note book containing a number of entries dealing with recent movements of Glad stone. Notwithstanding the statements made that Gladstone was in no danger of being shot and that no importance is attached to the anair, there is a grow ing suspicion that Gladstone was nearer being nred at that his friends are wil ling to admit. The man under arrest is named William Tousend. He is 38 years old, a resident of Sheffield. The officer who arrested him saw him mount the steps of Gladstone's residence shortly after Gladstone had entered. v hen the policeman ordered him to descend Jie hred at the officer, and subsequently struggled desperately against being ar rested. Tounsend asserts that the dis charge of the revolver was accidental. London, April 27. It has been learned that Gladstone, who attended a dinner parry last night, was walking home alone at the time the man who fired the re volver was arrested, fie saw nothing of the occurrence and no one now believes that any attempt was ma le to 6hoot him. When the shooter was arranged in the Bow Street police court this morning the policeman who arrested him stated that the man had discharged a revolver in the Horse Guards park near Downing street. He evidently intended to shoot an officer. An examination of his note book revealed the fact that is contained a mass of ravings .again st Irish home rule, amid which was a suggestion that the murder of Gladstone would be justi fiable. Upon this slender foundation the report of an attempted murder of uiad stone was constructed. The Chicago Markets. - Chicago, April 27. A Sensational bulge of over $1 a barrel for pork occur red on 'Change here to-day. There was a general panic among the shorts in that commodity. The day was a wearing one upon brokers for commission houses, for while jumps of from 10 to 20 cts per barrel between trades, now up and now down, the execution of orders at speci fied limits was frequently impossible. It It was a lively-day in the pit from the start to th finish. Several days ago beptember delivery was about fw per barrel. It has been forced stsadily up until this last raise of $1 brought the price up nearly , to S30. As there are only 70,000 barrels of pork in Chicago, and according to the rules of the Board of Trade, nc pork can be manufactured between now and October 1st which a speculative purchaser could be com pelled to take on delivery, it will be seen just how much of a cinch the bull end 1 1 CO. auv ..in. i....

" j - In some places in North Carolina the location of the revenue office is of more importance than the man who is to run it. Senator Vance says that the Secre tary of the Treasury has the undoubted right to locate the office, But that the practice has been to let the collector de cide, preference being given to towns where there are public buildings to save rents. Maj. Charles M. Stedman arrived here from New York last night, and purposes leaving for Asheville to-morrow night. It is said his visit is on business and that he. is devoting himself entirely to busi ness and that he is devoting himself en tirely to business now. As he has con ferred with Senator Ransom since he came it may be presumed that he is not forgetting his old pohtical friends. By Southern Pressj Washington, April 27.

Many Lives Lost and Much Property Destroyed by Cyclones Crops De vast ed by Floods. Chicago, April 27. Another serious wind and rain storm visited this city yes terday. The buildings at Jackson Park withstood the heavy downpour all the morning with the wind at fifty -four miles an hour without damage. Reports from Wisconsin and Illinois points indicate extensive damage, j Many fami lies were compelled to flee for then- lives, leaving their homes to be destroyed in the floods. Ihousands pf acres of wheat are ruined andall the spring plow ing done so far will have to be done over again. 5 j GArNSVTLLE, Tex., April 27. A death dealing cyclone swept down on Montague county, thirty miles west of here, lues day. The storm struck two miles east of Bonita, a small railroad town, and ut terly destroyed everything in its path, demolishing houses, twisting down trees and snapping oft, telegraph poles. TJie house of a farmer a few miles from Bon ita was strowed for a mile around and the man killed outright. Three of his children were blown into a well and all of them, it is thought, will die. St. Jo, a town eight miles from Bonita also suf fered, but no loss of life is reported. uutheie, u. l., April '41. The. very latest and most authentic ; information obtainable from the cyclone devastated section of the Territory is to the effect that I'tom fif tj: to sixty human fives were lost and twenty-five people fatally in jured, and a hundred more with injuries more or less serious. Five ; distinct cy clones visited dinerent parts of the Ter ritory between fs and 0 o'clock p. m. Tuesday, and it will be a day before the full amount of damage can be known. GuTHEig, O.

East of there two families, numbering five and six respectively, perished, and in the ex treme eastern part of Payne county it is believed that nearly a score were killed.

Sheriff Brousard, of Lafayette parish, sued the Illinois Cen tral railroad for $10,000 damages for ejection from one of the trains of the company. The court decided against him. : He bought two first class tickets for the purpose of taking a crazy negro prisoner to the State asylum at Jackson, La- He placed his prisoner in the smok ing section of ' the white car and the sheriff, who was ill, went in the non smoking section. The conductor-- told him he would have to take his prisoner into the colored car or else sit with film in the smokimcar section, common to both races. Brousard objected, and he and his prisoner were ejected. The court held with the conductor that the law did not discriminate except in favor ol colored nurses ot white children, and as the railroad company was subject to a penalty if it violated the law the con ductor's action ;was justifiable. The question of convenience was one for the Legislature and the 6uit was dismissed. Georgia Banks Tender Their Gold, ; CoLUJiccs, Ga., April 27.

Pace Com missioner Lacy after Informa tion The Approaching Mu- nicipal Election A trial Trip of the Seaboard. f Fast Train. - - Messenger Bureau, ) Raleigh, April 27. f It is really quite remarkable how little space most of the State papers devote to the James City affair. One would have thought such a movement of troops, the largest since the war ended, would have been elaborately written up, but as to the troops themselves there is literally no news at all.

He held considerable coal mining prop erty at Coal Creek, Tennessee. To the great delight of everybody the clouds rolled by this morning and the sun shone out.
