1 Yesterday the sons nnI Iaugbters of liii-
, t2oIB ( ongreateI at the exposUlon
ctebrate their purtlclpaUon n the great
_ _ _
_ _ ctterprIo and icdIcate the rnagnlflcent
building that they had contributed to Its
arcIiItecttraI ensemble. One pccia1 train
after another deposited its burden to BwcIl
the CI'OWI and make Illinois ay onu of the
_ _ _ most notable events of the oxpoItion. When
the jiarty fts complete it was one of the
most tilstinguislied and representative bodies
that has yet assembled on the exposition
grounds. The day was celebrated with Inspiring -
spiring music and fervid eloquence and from
the Midway to the Arch of States the blue
badges of Illinois verc supreme.
_ : ' The occasion was fnvored with one of the
most iicrfect days of the season. The clouds
1 that hung between cnTth and sky in the
-r morning screened the grounds from the rays
t of the Juno stiti without belching their burden -
den of moisture on the crowd below. There
was a slight sprinkle it the early afternoon ,
but it WS not sumeicut to cause Incnn.
venience 811(1 ( lie clouds that have pr-
viously droncheil the grounds be-
caine an tiiimltigated blessing. There
was a fresh breeze sweeping up from the
river al day , and except in the brief in-
tervals when the sill caine out clear and
uitc'loqded it was a llCnSlrO ) to walk nbout
ttkti grounds and enjoy the bracing Nebraska
atmosphere.
\'litio there cro enough of the Illinois
people to make quite a rcspectn1)u crowil
themselves , they vrc far from being alone in
their eujoyineiit of the occasion. On no day
of the exposition has the early morning
attendance been so encouroging. Tim
peoiilo began to conic nlmost as soon as
the gates were opened nnd all day long there
% Vfl.S a continuous Inflow through all the
maui entrances. Many of them were citiiens
of the Sucker state before they became
residents of Nebraska and they were early
on the grounds to renew acquaintance with
any of their old friends and neighbors who
- might be of the visiting party.

The Illinois building waS naturally tim
center of attraction 011(1 all day
It ; was literally blockaded with visitors.
Most of the excursionists were contented
to i'ay a short visit to the bnlldlng and then
they scattered around the grounds to see us
k much of the big altow as posIbIe before
the formal celebration of the day began.
i- . . The fact that they had themselves built a
' .Vorld's fair lii1 not prevent tileill from cx-
r pressing the niost enthusiastic admiration
of the superb architecture of the Transinis-
) iSSIipl fair , which they CIO Willing to

toinpIti outlilo of lilinois. They were

Thu only regettrtblo feature of the day was
the dciay that attcflded tile adwis8ion of the
Apollo club of Chicago. omo of the cx-
cursioiiiats left tile train at the depot , but
- . four rarloads were taken directly to thu
north gate. Then it was discovered tiutt
the matter of getting inein into tliegrounds
had heelt oreriooked. They had HO passes
and the gatekeepers could UOt net on their

( IOWa tovii when ( or tile expenditure of 50
cents they could revel iii the cool breezes

enjoy such a symposium of attractions. The
breeze carried just enough suggestion of
rain to make it cool and Invigorating and
the entire grounds were sufficiently popuI
lated to Inake the scene indescribably at-
tractivo. Witil tue Incidentals of the brit-
liant illuminations and the 'agnifl ent
flIlIsic that floated out througil the open win-
( lows of tile Auditorium tilde WOS nothing
lacking to complete the enjoyment of the
visitors.
While tile early departure of Governor
ait1 Mrs. Tanner caused a change in the
plans for tile reception at tue Illinois build-
ing , the affair lost nothing in interest on
account of the lack of formality. It was
one of those spoptaneous and enjoyable
social sessions , which leave ( ho most. pleas-
alIt memories and all through the evening

LONDON , June 2t.-New ( York World Ca-

ducilcas of York launched Britain's newest
flrst-ciass battlesilip Albion at the Thames
Shipbuilding company's docks , lllnckwell ,
today she failed to break the custolmlary
bottle of champagne across the bows. Tile
opinion of sailors Present is tilat. this fully
accounts for tile terrible catastrophe Wilich
instantly followed ,
A wooden staging liarl been erected across
tile end of the dock under the stern of an-
olller war ship in course of ConstrUctiOmI ,
Between 200 and 30(1 ( peOple , residents of
the poor surrounding ill the neighborhood ,
mainly WOlIlCO and children , had crowded
UiOil this staging , despite tile alleged efforts
of tile workmen to keep theni back. As
the Aibion plunged down tile steep ways
it sent a great. wave behind it , lifting the
wooden staging , bursting it asunder and
precipitating the occupants into the water ,
Several thousand People were gathered
around on all points of vantage to view
the launch and as tiio staging collapsed
the crowd was so vigorously cheering tue
successful completion of the ceremony that
the accident escaped general notice for a
couple of minutes , In fact , tim duchess of
York , accomnpanied by First Lord of the
Admiralty Gosehen , left. the I16k ih a
steam launch , igilorallt of what had ilap-
pemled and cordially returning the salutes
of the crowd as they passed , Yet a bun-
( Ired yards off at that moment a couple of
hundred men , womnen and. children were
frantically struggling for life anlid the
wreckage of tile staging. A member of
Parliament , an eyewitness of tue accident ,
said to your correspondent :
"Tilo calamity was so sulden and un-
e xpected that even the unfortunate victilna
w ere Ilot given a warning shriek before
t iloy Were engulfed in utter confusion , amid
a dditional loss of life was caused by the
c rushing in of crowds US' see what ilad hap-
p emied , so that the police and dock ciii-
1OYeS vcre grievously hampered in their
a ttelnllts at rescue. I saw more than 0110
ap
p oor woman trying to hold her baby out of
t ile Water with one arm willie struggling
w ildly with time other to grasp a fragmnent
o f the simattered staging. Pitiful cries of the
d rowning mingled with tile screams of lior
r or front the helpless , panic-stricken throng
as t the dock side made up a scene mdc-
s cribably shocking. "
The bulk of those thrown Into the water
were rescued , nearly fifty women being
t ukon out insensibie anti only resuscitated
a fter strenuous efforts by the doctors , who
c eilectetl tiulcldy on the scene. At II. o'clock
t onight close to forty bodies had been re-
c overed , more than half of the women being
workmen's wives and daughters , vito bad
C anle arrayed In their Sunday finery to see
England's future queen perform the chris-
t oning ceremony. An inmiuest will be opened
t oday , When , unless tile dock authorities can
s ustaimi the statement that they warned tile
p eolIlo against going on time staging , they
will be called heavily to account.
The bodies of fIVe men , eighteen women
a nti cloven children have been recovered at
I 3lackweil.
Tile duke and duchess of. York have tele-
g raphed assuramlces of their profound re-
g ret and synlpatily.
