LONDON , June 22. ( New York World Ca-
Mcgram Special Telegram. ) Probably 5.000 -
000 pcoplu saw the great pageant celebrating j
Queen Victoria's Jubilee. In all history no
such vnst mass of humanity has gathered
to witness a similar spectacle.
A boom In the price of scats followed yes
terday's slump and tluro was scarcely an
unoccupied place along the line. The side
walk crowds were well distributed. I occu
pied a pilvatc stand at Hyde Park corner ,
lacing Constitution Hill , where , on the great
triangular space , quite 30,000 people were
jammed together. I saw the operation of
making a cltar road for the procession car
ried out without the slightest show of tem
per on cither side. The view down Piccadilly
from this point was one of bewildering bril
liance. The gaily decorated houses , the
myriads of fluttering lings , tens of thousands
of brighy \ diessod women on countless stands
and balconies" , the red coats and glittering
arms of ho poldlors lining the way , and the
dense maas of human beings pressed together
on the sidewalks , cheering and waving ban
ners and handkerchiefs all combined to make
n spectacle of life , color and movement which
could not easily be equalled. The sun's raya
were dulled and a cool breeze blew about the
exact moment the queen emerged from the
gate of Buckingham palace , when the sun
shown out and the streets BOOH became ovcr-
powerlngly hot.
POPULAU WITH TUB CROWD.
The colonial troops and premiers were un
doubtedly the heroes ot the hour. They held
the double advantage of coming first and of
winning the sympathy of the crowd , because
they thought they had been slighted by the
authorities. The heart of the llrltton was
stirred on seeing the wldenesn of the do
minion illustrated by the men ot all races
and all climes wearing the uniform of Queen
Victoria , from the Canadian mounted forces
tn the New South Wales cavalry , and from
the Dyaks of Borneo to the equally black
Jamaica cavalry. Representatives of the In
dian army came next In popular favor. The
giant Sikhs , their tremendous white turbans ,
their swarthy , Immobile faces giving back
not the faintest response to the plaudits of
the crowd , seeming alrnout unconscious of
them , sitting on their horses like statues ,
llercc , warlike men , were of the most strik
ing and picturesque features of the whole
pageant.
The procwslon , which took forty-five mlu-
utcs to pass a given point at a quick walk ,
was managed with wonderful skill. It cov
ered the whole route without a hitch , and ,
allowing for the time that the queen was
late In leaving the palace , she arrived there
again within a very few minutes of the
scheduled time. The cavalcade of princes
riding ahead of the queen's carriage Included
relatives or a representative of every notable
sovereign In the world. Crown princes , grand
dukex , archdukes , princes and counts were
as thick as blackberries , and some of them
very much the same hue.
PRINCES IN PLENTY.
Prlnco "Ferdinand of Bulgaria was there.
Ills furtive eye darting quick glances In all
directions at once , the stamp of ono who
lives In terror of de.ith. The crown prince
of Austria wore a brilliant Austrian bursar
uniform ot blue and silver , a handsome , deli
cate , sad-looking young man , the attenuated
remainder of the oldest reigning household of
Kuropc. Them were lots of German princes
and grand dukes , three of them In the Tann-
hauser-llko helmets and white uniforms of
the emperor's guard , great , burly , lusty ,
soldierly fellows. Interested In the scene , but
looking with no friendly eye upon It. There
were Japanese , Burmese and Siamese
( irlnccss , dapper , swarthy little fellows going
on their way with oriental Impasslveness.
The seNMie was .wondrous and strong to them
beyond Imagination , but they looked at It
with perfect composure , not to say indiffer
ence. The Russian Grand Duke Sergius ,
uncle of the czar , a man with a long , pale
face. Inexpressively callous and cruel In ex
pression , rode besldo the Insignificant-looking
luku of York on a magnificent charger , wearIng -
Ing a dashing Russian hussar uniform , Ma
breast clashing with orders. They rode too
quickly to permit detailed observation , hut
as they passed by , this cohort of princes ,
OIK could not help thinking how little of In
trinsic personal distinction there was among
them. They gave a general Impression of
discontent , dliagroeableness and dyspepsia.
HKll GRACIOUS MAJRSTY.
Then ramo the queen's carrljge. drawn by
I In eight cream-colored BUllIuns , with their
sumptuous new harness of morocco , studded
all over with burnUhe-d gold nifdulllons ,
bearing the- royal arms , each led by a running
groom dressed in a postilion's peaked cap
and long coat , covered with gold braid ,
through which only narrow strips of red
could ho seen. The queen ( at alone at the
back of the graceful laniluu , opposite her
being the princess of Wales and Prliiess
Christian. Her majesty looked marvelously
fresh , but perhaps a little pale. She was
Uretaed altogether In black , except for a
whitish fenthrr in her bonnet. She bowed
to thu people * on both sides with automatic
pteclilon , but she never smiled. ' It Is said
that Queen Victoria has never been teen by
her subjects to smile.
Tlu carriage neat had been lifted up tci
that fho could see well over the side. Her
linn da lay In her lap and , except for the nod
ding of her head , there was no movement.
Once > or twice she looked around at some ob
ject that caught her eye. She teemed as If
trying to ralso ( he lorgnette which hu car
ried In her hand , but rach tlmu her hand
fell hack Into her lap. She- appeared cool ,
t-v'n Inert and apathetic. People near me
Haul that that was the nameless dUulty for
which the Is famous. . A few other persona
who taw her at different parts of the route
f > ay is ho displayed somewhat more animation
when pacing through the borough among
the poorest of her subjects than Mie did
along Piccadilly , which contains the man-
clous of many of her uubjects most intimately
known to her.
PATRIOTIC PAEANS.
The people cheered and waved handker
chiefs lustily as die patted along , aud there
was no mistaking the warmth of thelt
greeting * , hut her manner of response * docs
not generate fresh enthusiasm ; un thu con
trary It had a rather chilling effect , consequently
quently the cheers quickly ditd away Kvca
the prlnco of Walan , looking prodigiously fat
and .heavy lu hU red ullk marehal'ti uniform ,
who followed Immediately on the left behind
his mother's vartlage , usually the inon
eordlnlly received of royalties , hedldnot evoke
a reneircd out bum of cnttuutasm. Tin
prlncdii of Wales sat opposite on the left < ?
the carriage nod Princess Christian imuu
dUley | faced tin queen. The prlne < vn o'
Wale * waa t vision of pluk , and white and
despite her 40 years she was the prettiest
ntl youngest looking lady In the procession.
She bowed gracefully to the people , who ,
however , had their gaze fixed on the familiar
figure of the queen and for once Ignored the
princess. Prlnco Chrlstlati was taken In
the royal carrliRe , not by any right of
precedence , but because she undcrntancVi
the queon'n ways and the queen h s con
fidence In her. The princess of Walts la so
deaf now that conversation with her Is Im
possible , and binldes , like many pretty
women of her placid , angelic type , she la not
bright enough to be of other than senti
mental Importance ,
Prlncctfi Christian seemed to bear on her
shoulders the cares ot the whole pageant ,
She In a motherly , comfortable , contented
looking lady ordinarily , but the was deathly
pate today and painfully nervous , and her
efforts to smile and look unconstrained were
eloquent of unspeakable misery. The royal
equipage waa In all Its appointments a. woik
of matches splendor. It Is by far the moat
perfect royal turnout In Kurope.
FEATURES OP THE LINE.
The Austrian grand duke. In n magnificent
uniform of pure while , faced with silver ; the
crown prince of Slam In lilt Jeweled cap and
the Persian prince with his estrachan head
plice , were all veiy ktrlktiig figures.
Prince Arlsugawa of Japan was certainly
the mcit extraordinary llRiire In the line.
Perched on a big horse he had the appear
ance of and looked about as happy BBa * clrcuj
monkey on an elephant.
In the carriages containing the queen's
numerous grandchildren tremendous en
thusiasm was created by little Pilnccts Vic
toria of Conuaught , who bowed and smiled
again In hearty appreciation of the plaudits
of the crowd. The little duke of Albany
took the whole affair with tremendous
serlousncFB. Ills dignity was that of a con
quering emperor. He Is 10 years old.
When the queen reached Temple Bar , the
limits of the city proper , she was met by
the lord mayor , who , accompanied by
sheriffs and other city ellgtvltarles. had come
from the Mansion House to meet her to hand
her the sword of the city of London. The
lord mayor Is not trained to royal functions
and , with hla clean-phaven face and strongly
marked features , ho" looked like a low come
dian. Ho- wore c crimson robe with a dscp
tlppot of ermine , white buckskin breeches
and Jack boots. A tliroe-cornered cocked hat ,
edged with gold lace , and worn somewhat
awry , added to the qualntncBs of his appear
ance. After this vision the sheriffs. In their
.scarlet robes und cocked hats , lex > ke < l only
ordinary mortals.
OUTERS HKR THE CITV , SWORD.
The lord mayor descended troma \ \ etMil
and , with low obeisance , "proffered her
majesty the famous pearl-handled sword ,
which Is ono of the city's dearest treasures.
The queen Just touched the handle of the
weapon with her lingers and then graciously
signified that the lord mayor might retain -it.
After further bowing and scraping , the lord
mayor climbed back on his steed , and , with
the sheriffs on either side , conducted the
royal carriage to the cathedral.
As soon as the ceremony was concluded at
St. Paul's the procession passed on to the
Mansion House , still preceded by the lord
mayor , without his hat , and waving the
famouH sworel somewhat wildly.
As the procession passed through the city
a cordial reception was accorded to While-
law Reid , the Biieclal representative of the
United States. Of all the glittering throng
that passed along he alone wore the ordinary
clothes of everyday life , and , with his black
frock coat and tall hat , ho was a very notable
feature of thu pro'cesalon. Again and again
ho was forced by vociferous cheering to
bow right and left. '
The Royal Irish Constabulary , who brought
up the rear of the procession , were as smart
and handsome looking set of men as any
In the whole shew. But the Londoners could
not believe that they were police. They look
like borne kind of black dragoons. These
mounted police , armed like light cavalry ,
were the only representatives that Ireland
had in the procession , and they typified with
' between the rule
signal cn'"ft the difference
of' England In Ireland and In her freely gov
erned e-olonks who sent their premiers and
their own f&reen. The only Irish armed force
la the police force , who , like the police of any
other part of the British empire , are armed
1'kc ' a military body.
At the bofiiimlng of the procession the
queen looked better than for years. When
ehe dlsipreareel In the palace at Its end she
seemed somewhat tired , but she evidently
bore the trying ordeal well.

LONDON , June 22. ( Now York World
Cablegram Special Telegram. ) Seated on
the steps of St. Paul's , on a day which will
bo remembered and alluded to for centuries
to come , I will try to record something of
the aspect and Impressions of the ocene.
Why Is London In that state of interne
enthusiasm and excitement which has for
some time been growing dally more acute ?
Those who attribute the aspect which the
great city at this moment presents to a mere
passing curiosity or the desire to wltnc.-c
a stately procession , take an extremel >
superficial view of the meaning of this diamond
mend Jubilee. The myriads of wavlni ;
I nags , the decorations , which must have cost
hundreds of thousands of pounds , the Illu
minations In every street , the bonfires on
all our hills , the gatherings In all our places
of worship from the most magnificent cathe
drals to the humblest village church , the
feast given to the poor and the presents to
the young , which will bo kept as memorials
by myriads of English children , am the out
come of no transient or ordinary feeling.
Densely crowded millions of human beings
of every rank have today witnessed the
cavalcade which has accompanied the queen
through the streets of a capital , at once the
wealthiest'In the world and presenting an
aggregate of population which has never
been approached by any one of the world's
mightiest capitals In all the ageo. All these
millions of many persons will have cared
comparatively little for thu spectacle.
As far its that is concerned , not n few
might have similar feelings to those of
puritan Milton about tlut "tcdlouu pomp
which waits on princes , when the rich
retinue long of hortes led and grooms be
smeared with gold dazzle * the crowd and
sets them all agape. " Others. I he shy , the
nervous , the contemplative , shrink from tin-
crowds , the uproar and eo far OR merely
looking on from a balcony Is concerned ,
would rather be lioni > > .
VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.
But the vast majority of those who have
thronged to bo present at taday'u ceremonial
menial feel Hint they will be taking part
In a national celebration , and are Inspired
by the seiiHU that they belong to a loyal
people , joining In their plaudits , sharing
In their thankfulness , ono with their Kind ,
and sharing ( > mmon sympathies with all
true sons of their native land.
The thought of multitudes , unexpressed
pcrhupi. hut deep and real , Is the thought
that some ennoblement romcs to uo from
everything which uplifts us out of mere
personal and domestic selflshment. The
celebration of the completed sixtieth year
of her majesty's ai'cvKhlon ennobles us to
pay :
"A people's voice ? " We ore a people yet ,
Tho' all men elsu their noble-r dmim * forget ,
Confused by brainless mobs und lawless
powers ,
Thank HJm who hua led us here uml roughy :
The Ilrlton in blown sens and ntormy show
ers.
We luivo n voice \Utb which to pay the debt
Of boundless lovu mid r vervncu and rosrct
To those ) great men viho fought and kept It
ours.
And wo feel aUo that we enjoy
The nne true wi > e-d of freedom shown
Betwixt a people and their nnck--a throne ;
That ceiber frcotlom out of which there
springs
Our loyal pax lem fen1 pur temperate kings.
The significance at today' * rejoicings U
that they taku thu form of national thnkj-
giving to Almighty Cod for unparalleled , for
Ircfitliuahle benefits. We're praising ita :
imioe fo. a telgii almost unprecedented I-
length : for a queen who lu already earned
from her mililorn or subjects. Including
nrarly cue-fourth ot thu huiunu race , the :
title of "Victoria the Good ; " for an epoch
which In Its totality ot wealth and pros
perity , expanded empire , ever-increasing
population , noble literature , Ingenious
mechanism and varied arts , boa unquestion
ably been never surpassed , has IndecJ. never
even been equalled tn the long annala of
mankind.
IN THE THRONO AT ST. PAUL'S.
Let us look around us. The ceremony for
which we arc gathered on th'c steps of St.
Paul's Is cot In Itself the religious thanks
giving of the nation , but U only an Incident ,
though one ot the deepest solemnity. In the
proceedings of the day In the state proccfi-
slon. Prominent In the throng which crowds
the steps Is the body ot rccUtlistlcs who take
part In the ceremony , behind and around
whom stand the members of the magnificent
choir of raauy voices. The two archbishops
of York and Canterbury are there , dressed
In the ) magnificent capts which the two
archbishops. Dr. llcnfon ot Canterbury and
Dr. Thomson of York , wore at the Jubilee
service In Westminster abbey in 1887. They
are of crimson velvet , richly embroidered
with gold and Oliver. They were o. Iglnally
prenented to Westminster abbey by Queen
E.lzabeth , but were renewed or fresh onea
priticntcd In the time of Charles II. The
dean and uibdcan also wore velvet and em
broidered capes. Those of the other canons
of Westminster arc of white brocade , Inter
woven with gold. The magnificent capes of
tlio dean and canons of St. Paul'3 , with their
tippets of green velvet , enriched with the
golden monogram , are new for the * occasion ,
and It Is said that each cape cost CO guineas.
The train of the archbishop of York la borne
by a chorister , that of the archbishop of
Canterbury by h's two eons , who are bojs
at Rugby and who are dressed In scarlet
cassocks and surplices , with scarlet skull
caps.
Among the assembled prelates Is Arch
bishop Antonlus ot Finland , sent here by the
emperor of Ru&sla as a cpeclal envoy to be
present on this occasion and at the assembly
of the prelates of the Anglican communion
before the Lambeth conference In Canter
bury cathedral. He Is clothed iu his arch-
episcopal robes of black and purple , and Is
accompanied by two deacons and by General
Klrcen , specially appointed to attend him.
PRELATES IN AHUNDANCE.
A largo number ot prelates to the Anglican
communion , not only from nearly t-very city
In the diocese of England , but even from the
remotest quarter of the empire , from Canada
and Iho Arctic circle to Tasmania , New
Xoaland apd Melanesia , are seated together
ard not 'a few of them wear their scarlet
chlmercs or other official robes. Most of the
deans of our English cathedrals are present ,
and , besides these- , ono member of every
chapter has received a ticket trom the dean
of St. Paul's , for that all the venerable min
isters of England have sent their representa
tives. ' A touch of vivid color Is given to the
scene by she scarlet robes , the robes worn by
doctors of atTtuUvln convocations , which
they have been toUitsrilon for the occasion.
MO.U of the bishops wore the skull caps of
violet velvet. The * singers and the band
number 750 persons , und the children of
St. Paul's are strengthened by the children
of Westminster abbey , in their scarlet cas
socks , and < ho children of tli ! ? chapel royal ,
In their gold-embroidered uniforms , which
are said to have been presented by Holbein
In the days of Henry VIII. With these in
their bright robes of white sll'x , with pink
sleeves , stand the musical knights , Sir Ar
thur Sullivan , Sir Herbert Parry and Sir John
Plainer.
Among the assembled thousand guests ,
Iccated side by side , are two of the thrco
prime ministers who still suivlve out of UK
tea who have had the office of prime
minister , namely , the marquis of Salisbury ,
K. G. , and the earl of Rosebery , K. C. With
them sit In the front row the lord chan
cellor of England and the speaker of the
House of Commons.
GREAT GLADSTONE MISSING.
Every one would have rejoiced If 'the '
greatest and mcst venerable of living states
men , Mr. W. E. Gladstone , could have been
precent , for all the other Victorian premiers
fiom Lord Melbourne to Lord Bcaconsflcld
have passed away. Hut Mr. Gladstone lus
reached an ago at which. In spite of the
magr.lHccnt health and vigor he still retains ,
it Is impossible for him to face unnecessary
fatigues or to take part In long , exciting
and fatiguing functions. He Is , therefore ,
keeping the diamond Jubilee amid the local
festivities at Hawarden castle.
During the Interval of'waiting the mili
tary barn's have been delighting the arocui-
bled throngs with familiar tunes , such as
"Wo'll Row the Keel Row" and "Britannia
Needs no Bulwarks. " It Is now 11:15 : a. m.
and those of the bishops and clergy who
take part In the service pass tn procession
to their places. I'lrst comes the bljhop of
Winchester In the puiple velvet mantle of
the Order of the Garter. With him comes
the archbishops of Canterbury and York and
tile blMiop of London , conspicuous in gor
geous cope and golden cape- , accompanied by
the dean of St. Paul's , the archdeacon of
London and the canons , and the ) * are fol
lowed by the choristers of St. Paul's.
All is now ready for the service to begin
and now at 11:60 : Dr. Maitin. the organist of
St. Paul's , gives the signal and the bells of
the great metropolitan capltol burst forth
with their magnificent peal. This shows that
at this moment an electric signal to the
belfry has Indicated the arrival of the queen
and royal party at Temple Bar , where they
enter the precincts of the city of London.
The bells continue their Joyous clanpr , yet
cannot drown with their jubilance the out
burst of cheers from hundreds of thousands
cf throats.
throats.COMING
COMING OF THE QUEEN.
Now the procession itself comes In sight ,
headed by Captain 0. Ames of the Second
Life Guards , the tallest officer ot the British
army , accompanied by four other tall troop
ers. They are followed by 10G gmm of th.- >
royal navy. The shouts with which they
are n colvcd all along the route show the
popularity of that service. Soon the glory
of the proccpslon culminates with the car
riage of her majesty , the queen and empress ,
drawn by Ita eight famous cream colored
horses , and all ended by their royal hlph-
ncsses. the prlnco of Wales , the duke of
Connaught and the duke of Cambridge oa
horseback. And now the hour of-noon has
struck , and amid endless cheering the queen's
carriage draws up In front of the west end
ot St. Paul's. The scene at this moment
In thrilling tn significance and almost over
whelming In splendor.
Drawn up all around the railings of the
cathedral are the carriages containing the
numerous retinue of the princes and -prln-
ccsse-s of the royal house. A line ot gentle-
mcii-at-arms stands at the base of the scats
crowded with ecclesiastics of the highes'
rank. At the right of the carriages , on horac-
back , are the prince of Wales , the duke of
Connaught and the duke of Cambridge. The
cheering ceases , and at an electric signal the
hells also cease to peal. Then the thanksgiv
ing service begins with a new and magnifi
cent "To Deum" by Dr. Martin. It Is a
most trlumpl-antly jubilant competition , full
of light color , variety and Intense exprce-
slon. It Is accompanied In parts by the roll
of drums and full choruses , dying away atone
ono passage Into pianissimo. It might he
railed florid In parts , but it Is eminently well
suited to the scenr > and to the acctelon. After
this there are some verslclcs Intoned by the
minor canons , and-then the dean reads the
Lord's prayer and the hUhop of London
reads a prayer of special thanksgiving ; this
Is followed by the benediction uttered In the *
strong voice of the archbishop of Canterbury ,
who. in his strength and vigor , always seems
ten years younger than his real age.
ALL SING "OLD HUNDRED. "
After the blessing follows the Immortal
"Old Hundredth , " In which every voice joins
with that Indescribable ) thrilling effect only
experienced when thousands of people join
with full hearts and enthusiastic sincerity
In beloved and familiar words. The effect
ot the grand old hymn U enhanced on this
ocean Ion by the accompaniment of bands
and the roll of kettledrums , which do'not
overpower the majesHc volume of sound up-
raliii-d by the full orchestra. The queen has
Ibtened throughout with deep attention
and with evident emotion , She Is drssed

LONDON , June 22. ( New York World Ca
blegram Special Telegram. ) I consider It
was a remarkably fine display on the part of
the military. The trejpps were at > fine a set
of men as any tohilcr could wish to sec. The
discipline was excellent ; their demeanor left
nothing to be desired. I coufe s that what
appcacd * lo mo more than anything else In
the wonderful spectacle was the collection
of troops from every quarter ot the globe
white , black , crcry-hucd , all showing great
clhclcncy and uniformity ot Instruction In
military movement. The troops belonging to
the British empire which I saw today would
be creditable to any nation ns far as Intel
ligence , their high order ot efficiency , their
equipment , their admirable conduct wat > con
cerned. The military representatives from
the different nations of the world were al > o
a most Imposing feature ot the pageant. I
think amost every uniform worn by military
men throughout the world was Included lu
the procession. ,
ESTIMATES THE CROWD.
I should say that the shbw at some part or
another must have been witnessed by nt least
G.000,000 people. But the utmost good order
prevailed from the commencement of the
march to the close. I did not notice the
slightest display ot disorderly conduct or 111
manners on the part of that jgantltf crowd.
From etait to flulsh the p61lc regulations
were excellently planned nrtd perfectly carried
'
ried out. While the fo'V&nment of tllc police
was positive , yet their etojduct waa most
creditable and patient. Thcj * > efemcd to been
on the best of terms with the polTalace. The
police were unarmed. I cfcrtalnly "saw no
weapon ot any kind used , but , ot course , they
had a largo body of armed men to call Upon
along the route In caee of'anything like a
riot. Their authority was lespscted with In
telligence and I might say vjith even gentle
manly feeling on the part dt the crovid. '
The celebration ot Queen Victorias record
reign was In my Judgment certainly a demon
stration of respect , love and devotion on the
part of all these millions of People. The good
will of all classes wcs qultq noteworthy. In
fact , I was struck by the f c ( that the demon
strations were even more .enthusiastic acrosu
the Thames In the poorer districts than they
were In the West End.
The plan of arrangement blocked out by
those In general charge waa carried through
with splendid precision , Th'e military repre
sentatives were Just In front of the caval
cade of princes preceding the queen's car
riage , and when we reached Buckingham
palace , ou > our return , we roraied lines , and
the queen'pasocd through'saluting the offi
cials , on either side very pleasantly. She
did not seem to me at all fatigued , and I
should say she was grea\Iy' gratified by the
demonstration ot the day.
LIKES TITO COLpNIALS. <
The colonial troops looked very fine In , *
deed , and appear to be a highly serviceable
body of rrfen. Their uniform is very Veil
suited for military service It Is of plain"
color , not very distlngulshatlo at a distance ,
and well contrived for campaigning. Their
horse equipment was 'of " Jijsh order. They
were , In fact , mounted "ot ) as fine a body of
hoiscs as I have ever seen. > lt would bo hard
to say which the best e-ocps was amid so
much that was commendable. I noticed
particularly the quick , nctlvo movements of
the Indian troops , They were supple ns
panthers , tall , slender , sinewy , muscular ,
and altogether fine specimens of physical
strength. i
I cannot help thinking Itja great fact that
England should have beeniable to assemble
such a representative body * of men from all
earners of the globs- , owing allegiance to
her sway , of most dlverso races , yet loyal
to her government aud | empire. I am aware
that military authorities here differ as. to thu
short service system % vhlch brings such
young men Into service. , U must say I was
surprised to see how w.ll 'they ' endured the
strain of remaining In , position for so many
hours , and how few or them really showed
signs of fatigue. Many bad marched Into
London at a very early hour 'In the morning ,
> Kstancf5 of several miles , and after doing
duty lu the streets under a hot sun for sev
eral hours , they marchedback , again.
The volunteers , too , Bccyie-d an admirably
disciplined body of men , and I could not help
noticing that they were largely men of good
c'lats , very Intelligent In carrying out their
orders.
This city London has made a profound
Imprerslon on me. I think It a wonderful
thing looking along an'endless crowd In the
ntreets today to see that the majority ot the
people were of such good 'physical strength ,
BO ruddy , so well dressed , and to think that
they all found seemingly profitable employ
ment In this one city. 5.

LONDON , June 22. ( New York World Ca
blegram Special Telegram ) I learned from
a court official of long standing the following
particulars of Queen Victoria's domestic life
at Buckingham palace today :
Her majesty rose as usual at 8:33. : Having
had a cup of tea In her bedroom , she break
fasted on cold chicken and an omelet. She
attended to business -\ylthiher private secre
taries for an hour , after which she withdrew
with her two daughters , jl'rlncesa Christian
and Princess Hentrlce , .end her two special
maids , to prepare for the jublleo parade. He-
fore leaving the palace' heriiuajcaty had some
sandwiches and a glass ofitokay. She filled
in the time before her/elepkrture with bavins
Iho leading article lu the llomlon Tlmea read
to her. On her return ( o the palace the
queen had a hearty lunch , ; consisting of fish
and light pudding , She t en retired to rest
for a couple of liourt.

Ing all the time of the wo idarful manifesta

experienced In her ' progijesa through Lon-

In tlio evening Ihe 'qu n presided at a

of special dlsl-.es prepared Jn&jherself.
The general opinion of thoto about her
IM that this triumph haf ; given her a new

will como lu a few days , ) when her majesty
will suffer from one' otylier periodical fits
ot despondency , when 'the will spend most

LONDON , June 22. ( Now York World Ca
blegram Special Telegram. ) The Americana
In London society gave some notable en
tertainments today In connection with the
jubilee. No bigger price was paid by any
one than that which was given by Mr. Astor
for Lord Normauton'a house In Pall Mall ,
1,100. lie Invited the duke and duchess
of Marlborough , the dowager duchess of
Marlborough and Lord William Bertstord ,
Lady Naylor Leyland , Lady Randolph
Churchill "and her sisters and the duchess
of Manchester , among others , to partake of
his hospitality. The decorated stands , the
luncheon and the band must have cost'ovcr
1,500. Next to Mr. Astor's magnificence
came Miss VanWort , who 1ms done' noth
ing but entertain this season , Mr. and Mrs.
Pelham Clinton , the latter a pretty Amer
ican. Lord Norbury. Mr. Dudley
Ryder aud others. Mrs. Goelet meant
to entertain. The Goelcts had taken
Wlmbernc House for the teason at a cost cf
2.500 , chiefly because It had a view of Pic
cadilly , and they had Invited several friends
to visit them today. At the last moment ,
however they found that some people In
Piccadilly had erected a stand which cut off
their view , so they had to put oft their
guests and accept an Invitation from Mrs.
Cavendish Bentlnck. who had a big party.
Mrs. Bradley-Martin was expected to do
great things , but after all did nothing. It
was said that nhe had given 2,000 for a
house , that she had been Invited to Lord
Roths.cb.llds and that consequently her social
pcxsltlou was assured , but as a matter of
fact I saw her arrhe , quite meekly , at the
aide door of the Bachelors' club. She was
dressed In pale blue , nothing but pale blue ,
with blue feathcro In a smart , small bon
net. She got a very good seat on the balcony
and kept It all thtough.
A great many Americans were at Mr. and
Mrs. George Herring's In Picadllly. Mr.
Herring Is a partner of Blschoffshclm , the
great financier. Among those ) there were :
Sir John and Lady Lister Kayc , Mr. and
llrs. Moreton Frewen , Mrs. Parkinson
Sharpc , with her daughter , Baronesa Oppen-
bolm , In pale silk , with a short coat of black
lace , with mauve chiffon sash and a mauve
toque , and Mrs. Newhouse.
Mrs. Ronald , dressed In red , whlto and
blue , was at Clarence House , where a scat
bad been given to her by the duke of
Coburg. Mrs. Arthur Pagct was at Mrs.
Neumann's. She Is the wife of one of the
South African millionaires. Her protege ,
JIlos Kussner , the clever little miniature
painter , was given a seat on the stand
created for the House of Lords.
Mrs. John Hay had a big party. Mrs.
Mackay , who Is going nowhere this season ,
on account of her deep mourning , had a
small party , which Included Mrs. Beech
Grant , her sister , and her sister's children ,
who are staying with her now , and Clary
Mackay , who has arrived from New York.
Mr. Vandcrhllt Is dally expected on a visit
to his daughter , the duchess of Marlbor
ough.
The next great jubilee event Is the gala
opera night tomorrow. People are paying
100 for boxca. Yet 40 was asked for stalls.
Mrs. Arthur Paget gave 50 for a stall box
on the grand tier , and she has Invited Lady
Helen Vincent to share It. Mrs. Ogden Goe-
let has given 42 for three stalls. There
will be fierce competition between the mil
lionaire granddames In display of jewels , but
Mrs. Bradley-Martin promises to outshine
everybody else. EDWARD MARSHALL.

LONDON , Juno 22. ( New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram. ) The ban
quet at Buckingham palace waa a fitting
climax to the glories of the day. The queen
and tbo most of tbo royal families dined
in the state , dining room , while the olllcera
of the household and 'leading me'inher.i of
the suites attached to the principal foreign
representatives dined In the garden corridor.
For the royal banquet a magnificent service
cf gold plato had been specially brought up
from Windsor. The room was decorated
with gold shields , most ot which were col
lected by George III. The famous gold vase ,
taken from the Spanish admiral's ship which
le-d the Invasion lu the reign of Queen Eliza
beth , flanked the sideboard , which had as
Its center piece a wonderful Jeweled peacock ,
valued at 40,000 , the- body and tall being
composed of solid gold , profusely studded
with pearls , diamonds , rubles and emeralds.
The gold st-rvlce of plate used at thu dinner
came from GeorgeIV. . It is sufficient to
dine 130 persons. Thr > queen's collection
of wlno Is equalled only by her collection of
plate. Thu principal wines drank were hock
and champagne.
At the conclusion of the dinner , glasses
of lokay were handed around which was
of absolutely priceless value. Tokay was
the favorite wine of the prince coneort. who
laid In a large supply. As soon us the ban
quet was over the queen passed Into the
state drawing room. After addressing a few
words to each of the guests in turn , she re
turned to her private apartments. The day
had been a long and trying one , but to thu
end , although looking somewhat pale , she
was cheerful and In ( he best of health.

multitude. Tlit procession was
y au aihunce party of the Royal
Horse guards. Then followed the band of
the panic corps , pluyliu , the Inspiriting
"Washington Post March. " Close upon the
baud came a portion ot thu picturesque
Northwest Mounted police as escort to the
first colonial premier , Hon. Wilfred Laurlcr.
COLONIES TO THE FORE.
The Northwest police , men to whom evi
dently a saddle has never been n novelty ,
made a striking appearance , "quite as brave
and nctvlceable-looklng" as the New South
Wales Mounted Rifles , with their gray semi-
sombreros and black cocks' plumes , who
succeeded them , escorting the premier of
New South Walts , Hon. S. II. Reid.
The Victorian mounted troops followe-d ,
smart , weather-beaten fellows In unattractive
brownish uniforms , succeeded by the New
Zoalnud mounted contingent , n line-looking ,
sun-burned lot , drawn from almost every
town of any Importance In thu colony , dis
playing uniforms Intended for the conflict I
rather than the parade ground. Then came I
New Zealand's premier , Hon. Richard J.
Seddon. For the moment Australia gave
way. Africa was allowed a chance and the
Cape of Good Hope mounted rllles well set
up men wearing the scarlet , with white
Helmets , rode by to herald the coming of the
Cape premier , Hon. Sir J. Gordon Sprlgg ,
K. C. M. G. Hardly had lit- been noticed
and to the majority unknown when atten
tion wan claimed for the yellowish-brown
Khurkce , lit with bright scarlet , from the
blazing pruggarcc on the spiked helmets to
the double stripes down the wains of tightly
fitting corduroy trousers , with large chamois
leather patches where the knee gripped the
saddle , which proclaimed the South Aus
tralian mounted troops. Lean , long , spare
men of wiry manhood , they won applause
like the rest aud passed on to give place to
the premier of New Foundlaml , Hon. Sir
W. V. Whltewuy. From New Fouudland
ono was transported to Natal by the Natal
mounted troops , a contingent similar In
model and equipment to tlu'lr Cape brothers-
In-arms. Hon. Sir II. N. Nelson , K. C. M.
G. , rode after them.
CHEERS FOR CANADIANS.
The premiers being disposed of , then suc
ceeded a really most attractive display ,
mounted troops or the crown colonies , the
Rhodcsian honse , the colonial Infantry , broken
by three bands , typical of the United King
dom , those of St. George's , the London Scot
tish and the London Irish Rlflo Volunteer
corps and others. Then there parsed the
splendid contingent from Canada's Infantry ,
175 strong , unlforme-il somewhat like the
regular service lufatitry , with Colonel Alymcr
leading. Much applause was bestowed on
the fine marching of these men , who In every
way kept the Dominion to the front.
Following came the real oddities In the
eyes of Londoners , ot which the Zaptlehs
from Cyprus divided the honors with the
Dyaks of Borneo. Both are military police ;
the Zaptlehs were mounted on Island ponies
and naturally wore the Turkish fez , with a
Jacket somewhat suggestive of Constanti
nople and the minarets of Stamboul. The
Borneo Dyaks , yellow colored , smallish
chaps , were eagerly expected by the crowd ,
owing to their head hunting proclivities , of
which , however , no truce could be noticed In
their dress. These and others coming after
emphasized and repeated the fact how widely
scattered are the races the queen rules. The
Trinidad field artillery , the Sierra Leone
militia , with their strange , Email , blue tur
bans and depending tassels and knlckcr-
becker ; the British Guiana police , with their
whlto curtained caps , the Hausseas in' the
familiar zouavo costumes of long ago and
the Royal Niger hauaseas men who fought
at Illrln and Blda In uniforms of Kliarklll
cloth , trousers exposing the leg , and shaved
heads , were all blacks. The Hausseas , the
blackest of the blacks , wearing "the bur
nished livery of the sun , " were most en
thusiastically greeted.
GREAT MILITARY DISPLAY ,
The second procession passed the palace
fifty minutes after the colonials bad climbed
Constitution hill. It more than eloquently
filled Into the picture of Britain's war
strength ; more than magnificently completed
the carnaval of gorgeous costume and color.
Scarlet and blue and gold ; white and yellow ;
shining cuirasses and polished helmets ;
plumes and tassels ; furs and gold and silver
spangled cloths ; bullion embroideries and
accoutrements ; splendid trappings , sashes
and stars ; cresses and medals medals for the
Crimea , Indian , Scringapatam , the Nllo ,
Ashantl , Afghanistan , Chitral , South Africa.

thcro the finest of them all. and me H highly
prized , the world can show , the Victoria
cross ; death-dealing weapons , swords and
revolvers ; carbines and cutlasses ; batteries

spirit and meaning ot It all , the fondly car
ried colors for which these men would die ,
and over alt the rich strains of that music
they best loved to hear the sight was ono
to stir the blood as only soldiers have stirred
It since the dawn of time. Hut the scores
of troops and companies were literally too
numerous to mention except as a brilliant
whole. It seemed like nothing so much as
some stream of burnished gold flowing be
tween dark banks of human beings gathered
to witness Its passage to a laud of light.
QUEEN AT LAST.
The empire has passeil in review , und the
head of It all was now to come , her majesty.
Tito royal procession proper wim Interwoven
with the crowd of waiting dignitaries of all
sorts. First came the allies de-camp to the

followed alone the lord lieutenant of London ,

and half Its crack regiments and wearing all
Its Etars. Then u complement from the *

Dragoon Guards , "Queen of Great Britain
ami Ireland's Own. "
After the Germane came the most brilliant
group of all the soldiery , the officers of the
Imperial service troops from India , In their
uniforms. A mixture of tbo English regular
army and natlvo dress were brilliant to a
degree not to be witnessed outside of coun
tries where barbaric splendor and Ingenuity
In embroidery Is the rule. Swarthy featured

of all the dark mystery of the catt. Many

The Hartley Jury reached a verdict at 10:05 :
o'clock yesterday morning , after being out
slnco 5:30 : p. m. Monday. Thu verdict found
thodcfcndnnt guilty , an charged in the third
count of the Information , of converting the
money of the state to his own use as an
Individual while holding tlio olllco .of state
treasurer , the amount of the embezzlement
beliiR fixed at $161.854.15.
Nearly twenty minutes was consumed In
notifying the defendant and his attorneys
and gettliiK them Into court. After the ver
dict waa read by Clerk Frank the jury was
polled at the request of the defendant's at
torneys , ami each member of the Jury , as hln
name \vaa called , answered "yes" to the nuta
tion , "Is this and was It your verdict ? "
The defendant nan three days within which
to file a motion for a new trial , and the
hearing on this motion will undoubtedly bo
had before court adjourns for the term. In
case the motion Is overruled sentence will bo
passed , and this will unquestionably be fol
lowed by an appeal to the supreme court
with a request that the defendant be released
on bond , pending the decision of the supreme
premo court.
THREE FOR ACQUITTAL.
It was learned that on the first ballot after
the Jury retired Monday night the jury stood
nlno to three , the three being for acquittal.
It Is stated on good authority that the thrco
men who voted for acquittal were John W.
Stiles , Charles Tompsctt andl Christ Stelger.
The last ballot yesterday morning , before a
verdict was reached , stood eleven to one , the
man who held out being Christ Stelger , who
la reported to have said he would stand
out for acquittal until hades froze over.
The amount of money which Dartley In
convicted of embezzling was probably
reached by giving Bartley credit for the
$50,000 which ho claimed to have checked
into the general fund from his private nc-
count In the Omaha National bank. The
amount of money ho was accused of em
bezzling was ? 201SS4.0u and It appears that
a slight error was made In the computation ,
making the figures In the "cents" column
" 45" Instead " "
of 03.
HARTLEY GOES TO JAIL.
After the verdict of the jury had been
entered In the record Judge Baker Issued an
order releasing Hartley's bond for Mis ap
pearance in court aud remanded him to jail
to await sentence. This proceeding was
something of a surprise to the defendant anil
his attorneys and they promptly took an
exception to the order of the court , hut
Hartley was turned over to Sheriff Jle-
Donald and about noon ho was taken to the
county jail and placed under the charge ot
the jailer. Ho wan accorded the same treat
ment as was given Henry Ilolln , the Omaha
ex-city treasurer , who left the county Jail a
short time ago for the stale penitentiary , to
servo a sentence of'nineteen years , passed
upon him by Judge Hakor for the tame
crime for which Hartley now stands con
victed.
A telegram was cent to C. O. Wheilon , onn
of Hartley's attorneys , who livs nt Lincoln.
What will ho the next move of Dart-
ley's attorneys can only bo conjectured ,
as Mr. Mahoncy refused to dlvulgo any
thing In connection with the matter.
It la surmleod , however , that proceed
ings will bo commenced to Bccuro Hart
ley's release from jail , pending action oa
a motion for a new trial.
The reel Ion of the statute under which
Hartley stands convicted provldro for u sen
tence of from one to twenty-one yrai and
a line of doutilo the amount of the embez
zlement.
