NRW YORK , April 27. The International
I naval rendezvous and review , in honor of Co-
I Inmbus , which has been in active progress
I for nearly two weeks , culminated today In a
demonstration more spectacular , moro noisy
and more remarkable In many other respects
than anything of the kind recorded in mod
ern history.
There was only one drawback to the mug-
| nlflcent demonstration and that was the
weather. During the night the clear sky of
yesterday gave way to clouds and soon a
i downpour of rain began. So misty was the
t atmosphere that it was necessary to post
1 pone the parade until afternoon and n signal
boat notified the fleet that Instead of start
ing lit 10 o'clock this morning the prcsiden-
\ tial party would defer their trip to the Dolphin
phin until 1 o'clock this afternoon.
The wetness above , the moisture below ,
permeated and saturated everything , every
where. Such was the condition early this
morning about this ( lag-covered , bunting-
decked city In the night time the storm
had stolen over the Jersey hills , wrapped
squadrons on the river , settled down on
the city and blotted out the dark brow of
the sea from the ken of Iho peonlo ashore.
Out on the bosom of the lordly Hudson river
somewhere in the dense gray fogs , the
navies of the nations wore softly chafo.l
by the uneasy tide , but , to those astir as
daylight were off the cdgo of night , the
ships seemed to have been spirited away in
the darkness and no eye could pierce into the
gray thickness where the black waters wal
lowed about tneir iron skies , sullenly
washed at prow and stern.
DljIlCllt I.CBIOIKMl till ) Ml't.
But as the day broadened the two rows
of bristling vessels were at length revealed ,
though dimly at best , for tlio persistent
springtlderraln was falling and distances
were uncertain and Indistinct. One of the
most painful results of the storm was the
wlltoel , forlorn condition of the many beauti
ful decorations on buildings throughout thD
city. All the line effect of yesterday passed
[ away and the watersoaked bunting floated
I heavily In the stiff breeze. , After a while
jail New York aroused for n holiday only to
[ hear the steady downpour of rain ushering
| In the day of the great naval parade.
There have been naval reviews of International -
( national character before , but none so strik-
Jlng as this. There was ono at Genoa , Co-
llumbus' birthplace , last year , In which ves-
Isels representing thirteen nations ( all those
I now participating , with the addition of
I ' Portugal , Koumania. Greece and Mexico )
participated , and in which Admiral Benham
of the Newark took part for the United
States ; but there were only twenty-seven
| vessels In till In line on that occasion , and
those mostly second class. The Ironclads of
> Great Britain , Franco and Germany have
nmdo Imposing demonstrations of force in
the English channel and off Spithcad , and
have been passed In review before the
crowned heads oj England and Germ nyj
and the powerful Kusslan licet has more
than once "Hocked by itself" in the Baltic in
review of the emperor of all the Kusslas. in
a manner to excite the apprehension of other
[ lowers ; but as a peaceful demonstration the
Now York naval review of today eclipsed all
in interest.
Contrast of Four Centuries.
It was peculiarly a manifestation of senti
ment , not of force. Yet some of the
most formidable naval vessels In the
world were there. And the quaintest part
of the day's ' proceedings was that the post
of honor at the head of thorovlewod columns
vraij irlvon to the apparently unseaworthy
reproductions of the Columbus caravels , the
Santa Maria , rinta and Nina , which , with
Infinite care , had been towed over from
Cadiz to Cuba by our own Admiral Benham ,
and from Cuba escorted to Hampton Roads
and New York by tlio Spanish war ships.
These pigmy boats , high-pooped and lateen-
rigged , cut away amidships llko a Roman
galley , were anchored opposite Ninety-third
ntreot and formed practically the turning
point of the review. The contrast of four
centuries of naval development could not
have boon moro strongly and picturesquely
marked.
The line of vessels reviewed was over three
miles in lenirth , Htrotehing in two columns
from the foot of Twenty-third street to about
Ninctj fifth street , where the reviewing
KbIp , the Dolphin , anchored. The foivliri
vessels were most nf them stationed on tht
New York side of the Hudson river ; the
American licet , with the German. Dutcli am
Argentine cruisers , ocempled the Now Jersoj
Hide. Tim ships were anchored 5 < K ) yarns
apart uinl a space of100 yards was left between
tween the two columns.
TliquimmU Wltncu tliu lii | ilrtur Sennr ,
Thousands of visitors poured into the eitj
to witness the sight. By act of thu legisla
turn and proclamation of the governor tin
day was nmdn a public holiday. Busines
was generally suspended. Flags were dis
played from all the shipping ami from man ;
'
public mid private buildings. Hundreds o'
thousand * , of spectators lined the water' !
cdgo on both shores of thei majestic river
porehod upon the roofs and upper stories o
thn lull buildings , and climbed the palisade :
or the slopes of thn riverside. Every poln
of vantage from which a view of the seen
could ho obtained was occupied.
The United States , by authority of law
took full possession of the waters of the har
bor for thu day. A cordon was tight )
drawn around thn reviewing vessels and th
reviewed , and until the actual cercmouie
were over no unauthorised Itoat was allowtv
lo pass the line , Notwithstanding this torn
\ > orary restriction , nearly every ing boat an
excursion steamer was engaged for the da ,
and crowded with sightseers , awaiting thei
I'lmncc to review tlm warships on theirow
account.
Tlio proceeding * began early At 8 a. in.
by a preconcerted arrangement , all the ship
in the review Meet simultaneously holsitv
colors and ilrr&xcil ship. At U.10 ! a. m. a
the steam hinnches of the American men-ol
wur were dropped and manned readvtog
to the assistance of the patrol licet shnul
any Ircld Intruders seek to pass through th
lines , Their services were not needed. Th
ivspei t which the American people nuve
full on great pilhllo occasions to pay t
authority was abundantly manifested , an
wi.uld have been even had It not been or
forced with such overwhelming denionsti-
tlyiis of power ,
Wlivn the t'ritU ut KnilinrkoU.
The embarkation ol the presidential part
on hoard of the reviewing boat , Dolphin ,
was a gorgeous affair. A handsome special
landing place had been erected for the pur
pose at the foot of Twenty-third street , the
approach to which was carpeted and draped
In bunting. The president was escorted by
his naval aides and accompanied by Mrs.
Cleveland and the members of the cabinet
with their wives nnd the members of the
dlplomaticcorps representing fore-ign govern
ments. No rcMiresentnllves of the press or
of the general public were permittee ! on
Ixmrtl the presidential yacht. Even the
Duke do Verngua , the nation's specially In
vited irucHl , the lineal desccndent of Colum
bus , was brought nloni ? in n separate vessel ,
the army boat General Meljrs. The Dolphin
phin , John Itoach's last achievement for the
government. lontr accused of "structural
weakness , " had been specially forlllled for
the occasion by having a great cabin built
clear across the ship and covesrlmr one-fourth
of her entire length , constituting a liner
dining saloon than that possessed by any
yacht. , that rides the waters. The saloon
and the after cabin had been elegantly deco
rated , carpeted and refurnished In hand-
carved mahogany , specially designed.
( ! ne N of the Oi'ruxl.ni ,
On the Monmouth were Senators Oolph ,
Butler , Brice , PolTcr , Mandcrson , Cameron ,
Dubois , Faulkner and Wasliburn and Con
gressmen Ueltzhoover , Dalzcll , Bingliam ,
Cadmus , Patterson , Randall , Paine , Ounphy ,
Traeoy. Springer and many others , including
O. Russell Brown , governor of Rhode Island ,
and Governor Morris of Connecticut.
On the Blake at first was tlio whole diplo
matic corps. Just before thu start , however ,
they were asked logo aboard the Monmouth ,
the Blake affording less protcclion from the
rain. On the General Meigs , besides the
duke of Veragua , were the duchess , the son
of the duke. Admiral Bclknap , Commander
Dickens and Mrs. Dickens , the minister of
Spain and Mrs. Richard Wilson Gilder.
The Monmouth started from West Thirty-
fourth street shortly afle-r 1 o'clock as did
the Blake and others of the guest steamers.
They were met by the torpedo boat Cushing
before they had reached the middle of the
stream , bearing orders to wait until 1 o'clock.
The steamers accordingly returned to their
respective wharves and tied up again until a
few minutes before I o'clock.
At half past 11 o'clock lunch was served
to the duke of Veragua and his party , after
which , accompanied by General Scholleld ,
the duke paid u short visit to thn Mon-
mouth. An Informal reception was given
the distinguished visitor , and all the sen
ators and congressmen aboard were Intro
duced to him.
The duke then called upon the diplomatic
corps. Hero uiruln a reception was held.
The passengers of the Monmouth and Blake
were served with luncheon after the departure -
parturo of the duke , and then everything
was ready for the signal to sail out and join
the line In review. The city officials on
the Egerton bceamo weary of wailing soon
afler H o'clock , and , leaving their pier ,
sailed slowly down the river.
\Vultlng lor the rrcililmit.
President Cleveland , accompanied in a car-
lago by his wife , Secretary Herbert aim
.loiiteuant Wood , left the Victoria hotel at
:0. > o'clock p. m. Eight minute's later his
larty arrived at the foot of West Twenty-
him street , whore 1,000 men and women ,
vho had stood In tlio rain for four hours ,
hcered him enthusiastically.
Mrs. Cleveland , enveloped in a tweed capo
nackiiitosh , black felt hat and black veil ,
vas the first to alight and her appearance
vas the signal for the cheering to begin , the
ircsldont followed her and removing his silk
mt , paused for a moment , bowing on all
ides to the assembled people.
His cabinet officers had reached the pier
icforo him. Secretary Grcsham , Thomas F.
"iiiyarel and wife and C. C. Baldwin were
ho first to arrive a few minutes after 1
'clock. Lieutenant Hourigan was on the
lock to receive tlio distinguished party and
scorted them to the Concord's launch.
Janicl Lumont und his wife appeared next ,
ind also went Into the launch which then
teamed away and put the parly on
ward the Concord. Then in rapid succes-
ion came Postmaster General Blsscll and
vlfe , Attorney General Olnoy , Secretary of
.ho Interior Hoko Smith and J. Sterling
Morton , secretary of agriculture. They
> oardeel another launch which took them
out to the Miantonomah.
I'rrsldent Ulaveluml Arrlvo .
The Concord and Miantonomah saluted
.heir respective guests us they arrived.
There was no sign of the president , and it
was feared by the waiting crowd that ho
would not come. However , his carriage
soon came dashing along and set all fears at
rest , although he was only seen for a few
ninutcs , whllo walking from the cairlagc
: o the covered launch of the Dolphin that
jobbed up and clown ut the float. Besides
liim and his wife on the launch , there were
: iis secretary , Clarence Bowen of tlio recep
tion committee and Lieutenant Hourigan
and Spencer Wood , ttio latler being Secre
tary Herbert's aide. A man servant and
Mrs. Cleveland's maid accompanied the
party. The launch , with the president's
pennant llyinir , startcel away like a race
norse as soon as the company was on board ,
as If trying to make up for lost time. She
rushed , bobbing up and down , to the Dolphin ,
and the party climbed up the stairway , Mrs.
Cleveland again In advance.
As soon as the president touched the dock ,
bang 1 went ono of the Dolphin's guns and
the president's flag puffed out from its ball
at the masthead. Then began a screeching
of whistles from all sorts of craft , while Iho
Dolphin , Concord and Miunlonomah fired in
turn tlio presidential salute. The Dolphin
forged slowly ahead , surrounded by big and
lltlle .steamers , crowded with men nnd
women , famous and unknown to fame , nnd
the great naval review had begun.
About the time President Cleveland
reached the dock , Iho rain ceased for the
time , and Police Inspector Me-Avoy , who was
there with a long line of blue coats lo pre
serve order , remarked : "Just Grover's
luck. "
Ai ThniiiKh thn .Mint of I'iMitiirle * .
From the top of the New York Central
grain elevator at the foot of West Sixtieth
street , the view of the warships presented
an imposing spectacle. The building is the
highest structure on the waterfront between
the Battery and Harlem. Its location , ne-ar
the renter of line of warships , made the
entire squadron visible. Thro.igh the mist
and falling rain , the mimic counterparts of
Columbus' lleut , e-ould bo seen like some
phantom craft nf the fifteenth century , dimly
showing their outlines through the mist of
centuries. To tlio south of them on the New
York side lay the British squadron , with its
Mack hullc , tall , yellow stacks and bristling
guns. The cross ot St. George tloated wet
and limp in the breeze. Opposite the four
Britishers lay our own admiral's ship , the
Philadelphia , whiter nnd mire nandsomo
than ever , the Newark , Iho Atlanta and tno
San Francisco. Flags of all nations were
suspended from mastheads to yards and to
the deck , with the stars and stripes lloatinp
overall.
In the rear of the ships of her majesty , the
queen of England , were thrco big Russian
ve.ssels , with their black hulls , heavy masts
and projecting guns standing out clearly in
the mist. Abreast of that the white , glis
tening hulls of the Bancroft , Bennlngiun
and Baltimore formed an effective contrast.
The ) French ships , Arethuse , Hussird and
Jean Hart , swung into the .stream lust b'lo\v
the Russians. They were gay and frolic ,

Loxnox , April ! ! T. The Pall Mall Gazette
contains a sensational article under big head
lines , declaring that an attempt was
madu to shoot Gladstone at midnight
last night , as ho was walking
through St. James park , on the way
home. Many Inquiries have been received
from various parts of the country as to the
accuracy of the report. Its truthfulness Is
credited. A man Is now under areest on the
charge of firing a revolver In a public thor
oughfare. When arrested ho was found to
have a pocketbook containing entries detail
ing the recent movements of Gladstone.
His object Is unknown. Gladstone
was going homo from dinner when
the rovolvei was llrcd. but saw
nothing of tno occurrence. When the
shooter was nrraignod in police court this
morning the testimony elicited seemed to indicate -
dicato that ho tried to shoot a iwlie'eman.
His notebook contained a mass of "ravings
against Irish homo rule and suggestions that
the murder of Gladstonu would bo Justiiia-
blo.
Notwithstanding the statements that
Gladstone was in no danger of being shot
and that no importance is attached to the
i flair , there is a growinir suspicion that
jhidstono is near imminent danger , nearer
than ills friends are willing to admit.
The man under arrest is named William
I'awnscnd , as years old , a resident of
Slieflleld. The ofllcer who arrested him
saw him mount the steps of Gladstone's resi-
lenco shortly after Gladstone entered.
When the policeman ordered him to descend
ho fired at him and desperately resisted
arrest.
Townscnd says t'io discharge of the re
volver was an accident.
The following was taken from his note
book : "Tho Irish homo rule bill has passed
its second reading by a full majority , includ
ing Saumlers. Talking does not convert.
r ow is the time foraction. J might willfully
murder you. Would nothing of thakind bo
justilledf Now to prove it. What says Sir
Henry James ? See Gladstone's speech last
nielit. What says Saunders ) "
The magistrate instructed the jailer to
guard the prisoner with the utmost care.
Townsend went away fromShoQlcld Satur
day night last without Informing his wife or
anybody of his purpose to go away. His
wife snys he Is subject to ills and is often
absent from homo for days at a time with
out his whereabouts being known. He has
been subject to spells of deep depression , but
lias never shown any signs of homicidal
mania.

VAU-AUAISO , Chill ( via Galvcstou , Tex. ) ,
April 27. [ By Mexican Cable to tlio New
York Herald--Special to Tun Ben. ] To
couateract the effect ot a message sent by
Minister Egan to Washington , the guard
which has been maintained near the lega
tion of the United States in Santiago has
be'en withdrawn. It is held hero that the
message which Egan sent Is disrespectful to
the United States. It has been learned that
Minister Egan endeavored to transact ofll-
clal business with Minister of War Erraz-
uriz. Ho gave as a reason that ho did not
wish to consult with Chill's present minister
of foreign affairs , Blanco Viol , because ho
was a member of the conservative party and
was also Interested in a paper , El Porvenler ,
which has been attacking Egun.
Minister Vlel yesterday notified Egan that
he would no longer communicate with him in
an ofllelal capacity. The government hero
regards Esran's action as Insulting. It would
not bo surprising , in case Egan continues his
hostile attitude. If the Chilian government
would give him his passports. It is believed
hero that Minister Egan is trying to bring
about a rupture of the present amicable re
lations between the United States and Chili.
Tlio story that a request was made last
week for a guard to protect the legation
against the designs of those who wanted to
tear down Iho shield is false. It is now
thought the only way trouble can bo avoided
is lo place the legation in charge of Consul
Bane.
News of the revolution In Ilio Grande do
Sul has been telegraphed by the Herald's
corresponelcnt in Artigas , who sends word
that the troops In Uruguayana have given
their arms to the revolutionists.
General Moura with y,000 troops has left
Bago and is marchlmr to help General Sal-
gado , who is attacking the city. The ad-
vancu line of Gcnaral Tavares and General
Tcllcs' troops are under lighting orders and
a heavy light is now expected.
The Herald's corresponent in Montovido
telegraphs that tlio relations between
Uruguay and Brazil , owing to the aid ren
dered the Brazilian rovolturs by Uruguay ,
are not pleasant. From Buenos Ayres comes
a telegram from the Herald's correspondent
that Vice President Unibarn has resigned
after a discussion with tlio president and

are unsettled.

ofllco of La Voce d'ltalla , the Italian news
paper. They entered iho oftlco and scattered
the typo all over the iloor and smaahcd the

Ik'o of La Tunda , reaching there Just as the
paper was about to go to press.
Employes of the paper defended
the ofllee nnd a light resulted , which
at ono time assumed serious pro
portions. For two hours the light con
tinued , the ofllco oinpoyes using sticks
and stones while one or two had revolvers.
Several shots were llrcd and some of the
mob were hurt. Carlos Conte , ono of the ed
itors of La Voce , was brutally beaten in the
rict in that ofllco and others were severely
bruised.
Cavalry and i oilco pickets were summoned
and after a lively skirmish the mob was re
pulsed. It is feared that international com
plications will grow out of the mob's work.

CIIICAOO , 111. , AprI127. The executive com
mittee of the local di-ectory of the World's
fair held an important and protracted ses
sion tills evening at which resolutions were
adopted , which mean practically a ilnal
renunciation of congressional control. The
object under consideration was tlio recent
act of congress instructing the secretary of
the treasury to withhold enough ot the
Columbian half dollars to secure the pay
ment of $ . " > 70USO for awards. A Joint com
mittee of the linanco and legisla
tive committees made a lengthy re
port. which after ample discussion was
adopted unanimously. It set forth
the action of the directors in pledging to the
holders of the debenture bonds tlio property
and revenues of the corpomtion and says the
committee would regard It IIP a direct and
inexcusable violation of 'th'o pledges and cov
enants with the bondholders to enter Into
the formal undertaking which the late act
of congress requires. '
"The requirement of. tjils net , " suys the
committee , "is a serious Impairment of our
resource's and Incomprehensible and in the
Judgment of your committee Is a violation of
tlio conditions of the act [ of August fi , 18'J'J ,
accepted by the directors.1 '
It appears clear to the committee that in
view of the pledges made tto the holders ot
$5.000.000 bonds no such security as required
by congress should bo funiUhcd.

CHICAGO. III. . April 'S7 4-Timo was called
t. d .y for the opening of tlio World's fair ,
Director Davis issuing tin order to the ex
hibitors instructing tbuni-to stop all unpack
ing of exhibits before -111 o'clock Sunday
night in order that tho. 'Buildings ' may be
put in presentable -sliapfy for Mondayp-rA/x
great force of sweepers aud cleaners will bo
put at work immediately after the unpack
ing has ceased , and' the big buildings will bo
scrubbed and scoured , from iloor to roof.
Arrangements are now ' being made In the
various buildings for the reception of the
presidential party by the committee.
The World's fair national commission was
again in session this afternoon with about
fifty members present. President Palmer
announced the committee , which ho was
directed to appoint by'n resolution adopted
vestorday to investicravo the music trouble
brought on by the alleged favoritism shown
by Thcouoro Thomas unel Padurowski to
piano manufacturers not making exhibits.
The committee Is as follows : J. II. Clenden-
ning of Arkansas , chairman ; G. C. Sims of
Rhode Island : J. K. Burton of Kansas aud
H. G. Bay of Wyoming.
A long nnd at times acrimonious discus
sion over the form of passes to bo issued to
tlio Columbian commissioners nnd the board
of directors followed. < A resolution was
adopted calling for a special committee of
four , which is to consider tjio matter in con
junction with the judiciary committee. The
joint committee will repe\rt as to whether
commissioners and directors shall submit to
having their photographs pasted on' their
passes.
A reception committee of four to receive
the liberty boll was then appointed , as was
also a committee of iivo'to draw up resolu
tions of respect for th'o'lato ' John D. Adams ,
commissioner from Arkansas. The commis
sion then adjourned.
At a meeting of the executive committee

nan of tlio committee In place of J. A. Mac

tion , supplementing that of the governor
issued this wecK , declaring the ilrst day of

observe the day lo the fullest degree pos
sible.
Exercises in connection with the opening
of the Columbian exposition will bo brief.
There will bo but two speeches , ono by the

bondsmen are H. L. Stelson and E. A.
Cudahy. It is explained that creditors
were preparing allachmcnt papers , and to

yards , n receiver was Indispensable.

through the Union Loan and Trust company ,
but some of Iho paper which had been issued
by Hedges and Haaklnson in the name of

This morning Ed Haakinson , tl o
porn : ' packer nnd operator in' real
estate and on the Board of Trade , filed
a general assignment for the benefit of all
his creditors to E. B. Spalding , ono of his
attorneys. The assignment is general in its
character , there being no statement of his
assets and liabilities.
"Mr. Haakiuson , " said his attorney , "had
no Intention of making an assignment until
loday , for the reason that there has never
been any necessity that his creditors should
press him. It is true lhat ho is liable on some
papers of thoUnlon Loan and Trust company ,
which failed Tuesday , and this morning
some of ttic persons holding it bceamo
alarmed and threatened to attach. In order
to protect , till creditors and avoid unneces
sary court costs and loss to property grow
ing out of attachments , ho assigned. His
liabilities are far less than his assets. Every
cent of his mdeotedness will bo paid
und Mr. Haakinson will have much left. "
Attachments were beginning to bo filed
against Haakinson , the first being lhat of
the Tipton , In. , Savings bank for $500 on a
note sold through the Union Trust company.
Haukinson's failure is said to be duo to con
tingent liabilities and complications with
various companies which have failed.

The financial disturbance that Is c'aus-
imr such havoc In the commercial interests
of Sioux City has no effc'ct in Omaha.
So far as can bu learned there Is not a banker
or an Individual In Omaha that will be1
affected by the failure of the Union l eian
and Trust company of the neighboring town
A Br.u reporter interviewed half a dozen
of the leading bank presidents yesterday
and tboy all said lhat the collapse nf the
Sioux City concern had no effect whatever
in Omaha , for the reason that none of the
banks held any of the paper of the defunct
loan and trust company. When nsUcd if
they thought the Sioux City people had
reached tiottom most of tlio bankers shook
their heads and said the'.v were nol in a posi
tion to state what the final result of the col
lapse would be , but , judging from the his
tory of similar misfortunes , It was probable
thai other financial institutions closely re
lated to the broken concern in Sioux City
wo'ild bo drawn down with it.
"There is one thing that looks cne'ourag-
ing , however , " said the cashier of ono of Hie
largo banks of Omaha , "and that is the fact
that we carry on our books a balance in
favor of one of tlio ban Us of Sioux City and
it has not been called for. It seems that the
banks up thcro are abundantly able to take
cave of themselves and if that is the case Iho
worst of the crash is over. "
