Since that time I have a little lost the use of the maternal language. My ancestors called themselves Dupuy , which has been Americanized into Depew. but I have not forgotten the country of my origin. I will sPeak to you with the freedom of a copa- triot and faithful friend of your country. From the outset of our dierences with Spain the attitude of a Ilortioa of your ross has stupefied us , we cannot understand it. imagine to yourBelf two friends united by long familiarity and community Inter- eats. When they meet on the street one turns his hack brusquely on the other , pulls his hat over his eyebrows. thrusts his hands into his pockets and says : 'You are quar- rehing with my neighbor and I declare that all the wrong Is on your stde. ' Your first movement is astonishimeat ; your second is to explain that our governments have given us a good example : they have reasserted mutual friendship by a new commercial agreement. It rematns to re-establish liar- mony between the two peoples. " Depew proceeded to offer a spIrited and conclustve vindication of America's Inter- volition In Cuba. bringing into powerful relief - lief the decisive Influence of the Maine crime. Concerning tIme ultimate fate of the PhilIppines Depew said : "All depends on the duration of the war and the sacrifices it will Impose on us. Were Spain to demand peace today would be disposed to grant large concessions. if she remaina obstinate we will exact all we think is just ; that is to say , the chimi- nation of Spanish sovereignty from the west era hemisphere. " "But where will you arm'st your ardor for liberation ? Will It extend to the iios- sessions of other European powers in the Antilles ? " "Have no fear. " answered Depew. "Your administration no more than that of England - land of Denmark resembles that of Sputa. Sleep , then , tranquilly in your Antilles. We don't seek complications. " Speaking of the Anglo-American alliance , Depew said : "I said to you how the symPathies - Pathies of republican France for a man- archical establishment astonished us , but all continental Europe seemed at first boa- tile. One nation alone appeared to side with us-England. You know from experience the i'ensttive condition of the PeoPle CU- gaged in war. The friendship of England raised enthusiasm with us and we vere more grateful because for a century the relations - lations of the union with Great Britain had been rather strained. But these are the passimig Impressions of circumstances. We may arrive Ut an understanding with Emig- land on certain defined points. but from that to an alliance comparable to that between Frenco and Itussia or Germany and Austria there Is an abyss , and that abyBs we will never bridge ; never. " repeated Dcpcw with emphasis. "Our heart is not on that side. It goes out toward France. Drawn by glorious - ous memories of our history , by a community of democratic aspirations , the two great rt'- publics cannot quarrel. On our side It cannot - not be , and I urn sure it cannot be on yours. " \'OOlFOItI ) 'It ) ltH'VLitN TO I'AUIS. . .1it (4i * 0 Ilriiig Ii Iii Fitnilly liiiek to I'jitt'd Stimles.

Yesterday - terday the crowd was inore nearly commen- aurate with the importance of the show than on any day since the opening. One thing noticeable is the nuiber of out-of-town PeoPle among the visitors , th desire to see the show coming to the front since the first day's visitors have had time to get home and report on what they saw. There have been many details of the fair arranged and completed during the week , and the few exhibits that were ant ready when the gates were opened are 1mw in condition for iflsh'CtiOfl. The energy of the management In pushing forward the matters that could not be arranged before the commencement bus been such that time great fair is now in nearly the condition when it will be pro- flounced perfect. The absence of special days has had its effect in linlding back the throng , but the exposition habit Is rapidly taking hold of the dnehiers of the three cities , and jiromuises 500fl to become epl- demtc. To these must be added the country People , who are showing e.en a greater in- tereat than the townfolis. The liberality of the mnapagement In providing - viding the highest grade of miusic for the entertainment - tertainment of the crowds has drawn forth many high compliments. It is a decided lileasure to be able to hemt daily such cx- ceilcat organizations as the Marine band and the Thomas ochestra In connection with the physical beauties of thefair , at no additional - ditional expense. Alt the buildings are now showing forth the exhibits In the full .glory of their grandeur. Only here and tlire is a belated booth still being coutructed or decnm-ated. All of these must be dnd before another week line gone by. VisitOrs' 'are not annoyed as they have been at other expositions by having to get out of the wy of hurrying workmen. who are puttini Iocther the show the People paid to see. in This respect the Transmississlppi Exposition stands UhmIque.

Although Natur'e contmuaf'frown cuts th crowd of exposition vIsitors down to very ordinary proportions iio degree of had weathr seems to ho able to altogether keep the People away. Nothing could have been more discouraging thuu the conditions th4t prevailed yesterday , but the grounds were ver3' far from being de- i'rtecl. Quite a euerous number of PeOhile took chances on a netting and the inornimig attendance was very gratifying in view. of the circumstances. Time motor trains boutud for the grounds were fairly ratrommized and inside tho.gates there was a sufficient number of visitors to give the grounds an aspect of activity and iirovide a respectable crowd hi eaii of the mama buildings. in the afternoon time long Sm- pending rain loll steadily and many of time visitors went home to wait for a more ausptcmous occasion. The attendance is gradually increasing n spite of this discomfort - comfort , and it is believed that with an interval of time sort of weather that usually prevails at this seasn there would be a decided boom in that limirticular. A feature of the day was the largely Increased - creased number of out of town PeoPle who % % ercm among 'the ar- rivals. The coumtr3' cousins are lmecoming largely in e'idmmnce and they comPOsed - POsed a large proportion of the crowd today.
