TARIS , Juno 11. President Loubet has
( had a gratification In return for last Sun
day's outrage at Auteull. When he drove
to Longchamps today to attend the Grand
Prix ho was the hero of a grand demon-
ttratlwi cx'proaslng Itself In ono form or an
other along the whole route from the Klyscc
l > alaco to the race course.
Ho remained only a quarter of an hour ,
Just long enough to wltm-ss the race , and
having congratufatcd the owner of the win
ner returned to the Hlyseo , where ho ar
rived nt 4 o'clock without special Incident.
The revisionist and socialist organs sum
moned their readers to assemble along the
thoroughfares to be traversed by the presi
dent nnd his party and from noon thousands
of people set out from Mont Martre , Hello-
vlllo nnd other working class districts In
email bands , wearing a small artificial red
flower lii the buttonhole , and marched across
1'arls , taking up positions along the Ave
nue DCS Champcs Elyace and the Avenue
Do Bolso do Boulogne.
They gave M. I oubct a tremendous ova
tion , confining their cries almost entirely
Ho "Vivo Loubet" and "Vive la repUbllque. "
Who president did not hear a discordant
cry , although there were cue or two scuffles
before and after ho passed between the po
lice and an occasional hot-headed Drcyfus-
nrd , who tried to shout "Abas Loubet" and
was Immediately pounced upon by a swarm
of policemen.
Although the visit passed off quietly the
government was prepared for every eventu
ality , the whole district between the Elyseo
nnd Longchamps lltcrairy teeming with
troops nnd pollco. A policeman was sta
tioned every dozen yards along the whole
route and there were squadrons of dragoons
nrmcd with lances and mounted Repub
lican Guards nt all Important points , while
through the green follago of the boise on
each sldo of the avenue could bo seen heavy
masses of red nnd blue , denoting the pres
ence of detachments of soldiers , awaltlcg
orders.

mated that there were 15.000 soldiers and
pollco under arms.
'M ' Loubet practically drove through a
double hedge of steel. A line of Infantry
even stood around the race course between
tlio public and the course , on which no ono
was allowed to walk between tbo races
whllo several Republican Guards patrolled
the course Itself.
The president left the Elysee In an open
landun. with < M. Dupuy. the premier , bc-
sldo him and General Ballloud. chief of
the presidential household , and Major Bon ,
lieutenant colonel of Horse Guards , at

lowed in another landau , nftcr which rode
the presidential suite In other carriages.
The famous outrider. Montjarrod , preceded
M. Loubet , whoso landau was drawn by
four hor&es , with n couple of postillions ,
nnd escorted by n picked body of cuiras
siers. All were men of flnb physique and
formed a splendid cavnlcado with the fiery
Bun glinting on their burnished steel brcast-
plntoa and helmets , the latter surmounted
with tlie red cockade and trailing the black
Iiorso hair plume.
oil the Trlwuer.
The two leading cuirassiers rode revolver -
volvor in hand with fingers on the trlg-
Ber and carefully watched each sldo of the
road , while beside the carriage ran a num
ber of policemen , rendering It absolutely
impossible for anybody to approach.
On arriving at the race course the presi
dent drove through the paddock to the
presidential box. ( Municipal guards nnd po
llco lined the path across the paddock.
Drums beat and trumpets blared when M.
Loubet appeared In tfio front of the box
and a scene of intense enthusiasm followed ,
lasting several minutes , with nn uproar of
shouts of "Vivo Loubet" and "Vive la ro-
publlque , " which settled finally into a mo
notonous chant.
The president sat bc-wlng and smiling ,
with Mmo. Loubot at his side In a cream
lace dress.
A portion of the crowd In the paddock
ehook firsts , umbrellas and sticks at the
smartly attired people In the Jockey club
Btand adjoining the president's box , but the
club men , beyond returning disdainful
glances , made no retort. M. Loubet and his
party were so completely surrounded by
guards nnd pollco that It would have been
Impossible- for anyone to get within ton
yards of the steps of the box ,
After the races the pollco dispersed
Euvcral thousand persons demonstrating
nlong the Avenue des Champs Elyseo who
were supposed to bo making for the Elysee ,
cheering for the president and the army.
Several arreats iwcre made.
Later in the evening disorderly scenes oc
currcd outside the office of the Intransl
Koante , M. Rochefort's paper. Several
Journalists were roughly handled and even
tually arrested.
iAt a late hour this evening tbero Is con-
nldoroblo effervescence along the boulevards ,
where the traffic Is much Impeded. A few
pollco charges were necessary In the vi
cinity of the office of the Libre Parole.

The only grave Incident of the day occurred
currod after the president had returned teA
A tbo Ulyeee , at one of tbo garden restaurants -
\ rants , the Pavllllon d'Armenondllle. In thi
lUleo do Longchumps. About 5:15 : , when tin
establishment was full of customers , some
body made an objectionable remark concern
ing the president. The people took side.
ami a regular fight ensued. Bottles , glasses ,
decautera , tables and chairs were hurled
nbout.
. . . At tbo same time a crowd of soclalls

several thousands. The windows of the
cafe were smaehod and the struggle was
continued 'Within. Finally the mounted po-
arrived , cleared the neighborhood and
the cafe. Several persons were In

if .InurcM.
"We forgefW MRtcrences here , " he said ,
to assemble around the president of the
republic. "
Ono of the features of the day was an
unusually largo gathering of deputies and
municipal functionaries at Longchamps , less
to witness the races than to testify their
adherence to the existing regime. All the
ministers were loudly cheered when going
nnd returning. Of the forty persons ar
rested only n small number have been re
tained l custody. M. Loubet expressed a
wish that all who had been arrested merely
because of seditious cries should so far as
possible be liberated. Two ponccmcn were
Injured by demonstrators who were trying
to rescue friends from nrrcst. One , a de-
toctlve , was very roughly used. His clothes
were nearly torn off his back and his re
volver and purse were stolen. These , how
ever , were Isolated Incidents.
Just ibcforo midnight another demonstra
tion took place outside the office of Libre
Parole. In the scufitcs with the police sev
eral persons were Injured.
Inquiry at the prefecture of pollco at a
late hour elicited the Information that about
thirty arrests were made during the day
and ten policemen \\cro more or less seri
ously Injured.
Yesterday was an nnxlous day for M.
Loubet and M. Dupuy , but except for a few
frothy demonstrations outsldo of ono or two
newspaper olficcs during the evening every
thing passed off satisfactorily , and now , at
1 n. m. , the boulevards , which were very
animated before midnight , nro beginning to
empty and Paris is going to bed with an
easy mind. The nntl-Dreyfuslto papers try
to magnify a few .brawls . Into frightful
anarchist riots.
Comment of 1'reit * .
The Solr , by wich headlines ns "A Grand
Prix of Anarchists and Pollco Agcmts" and
"iA Very Expensive President , " seeks to
make out that the whole demonstration In
favor of M. Loubet was "manufactured by
the pollco with the assistance of the anar
chists. " It declares that the country Is
paying dearly for a president who needs
an escort of 35,000 soldiers and policemen
whenever ho leaves the Eryseo.
There Is no doubt that the fear of dis
orders kept many society people away from
Longchamps. This Is shown by the receipts
in the "mutuals , " which were 1,330,000
francs below those of last year's Grand
Prix. With more than 15,000 men under
arms the city had more the appearance of
the Fourth of July than the Grand Prix.
It was a great triumph for M. Loubet and
of public opin
an Indication of the change
ion.
ion.Tho predominant cries were "Vive Loubet
and "Conspuez Rochefort. "
After the riot nt the Pavllllon d'Armcnon-
dlllo the mob marched to what Is supposed
was the residence of M. Rochefort , but ,
not knowing the number of the house the
demonstrators hooted outside another per
son's realdeiice. There were considerable
.manifestations outside _ tho.Qfllcc.fi.flf tha In-
transigeont. 'M. ' Roclicfort , In Juct , has en
tirely lost his popularity with the socialists
on account of his attitude In the Dreyfus
affair.
Coiirtow- I.ouhct.
The Jockey club held a meeting on Sat
urday and resolved unanimously that M.
Loubet , 'being ' their guest , must be treated
courteously. Lots were drawn and Viscomto
d'Harcourt was selected to present a bou
quet to Mine. Loirtjct. On the other hand
the club decided that none of the women
members of their families , should attend the
races. The attendance , therefore , was
smaller than usual. ' The admission to the
course produced only 230,000 francs , as com
pared with 311,000 last year , while the tak
ings nt the betting machines were greatly
reduced.
During the disorders nt the Pavllllon d'Ar
menondllle the man whose remarks caused
the trouble got quietly out with the woman
accompanying him. But they were recog-
nlznd In their carriage by the crowd , and In
his terror the man ordered the coachman
to whip up the horses , trying to pierce the
crowd at a gallop. The mob , however ,
seized the horses and maltreated the occu
pants , whoso clothing was torn and who
would have suffered more had net several
sympathizing socialists cried out , ' "Leave
the aristocrats alone. " ' At this the carriage
was allowed to depart ,
LONDON , Juno 12. The Paris correspond
ent of the Dally News , commenting upon
the "astonishing turning of the tables , when
the socialists are demonstrating In favor of
the government Instead of the government
voting repression laws , " says that the gov
ernment required S.OOO passes for the weigh
ing ground at Longchamps , which were dis
tributed among detectives and socialists.

CLEVELAND , O. , June 11. Both the of
ficers of the Big Consolidated Street Hall
way company and the strikers nro waiting
expectantly for 7 o'clock tomorrow mornIng -
Ing , for then thereis likely to bo serious
trouble. True to its promise of last night ,
the company made no attempt to move cars
today. There was no activity about the
barns or terminals nnd the big crowds of
strikers and Idlers that assembled saw
nothing to exclto them.
A number of motormcn Imported by the
company from othw cities were taken to
tlu > Lakcvlew terminus of the road today
and all that were not captured by the strik
ers were housed there for the night. If
the strikers do not return to work in the
morning as notified by the company their
places will bo filled as far as possible by
now men , nnd an attempt made to move
the cars. Tills the strikers will not permit ,
or at least they say they will not , and
while they have been very quiet today there
Is apparently a grim determination on their
part to thwart the efforts of the company
to move cars.
There has been KOIUO tall : of a sympa

Improvement Throughout Xcw
York .State.
ALBANY , N. Y. , June 11. That there is
a decided Improvement throughout the state
of employment In nearly all Industries ,
with the exception of the building trades ,
Is shown by the first quarterly bulletin just
Issued by the Bureau of Labor -Statistics
for the quarter ending March 31.
In May the bureau made Inquiries of
leading manufacturers of the state con
cerning the condition of business. Their
answers nro summarized in about twcnty-
flvo reports. Five- reported an adyanco of
business slnco January 1 ; fourteen others
reported an Increase of working force ,
whllo only three reported n declining or
stationary buslncs. The industries most
favorably situated were the Iron and steel
industries , common goods , clothing , canned
goods , cigars and lumber.
The trades union returns on employment
for the quarter ending March 31 show the
following comparisons for the corresponding
period In 1S9S : Number of unions , 1,158 , as
against 1,048 for last year , an increase of
108 ; number of members , 173,516 , of which
166,235 are men and 7,281 women , as against
179,955 last year , n decrease of 6,439 ; num
ber of employed on March 31 , 81,013 , as
against 38,837 last year , u decrease of 7,214 ;
number of unemployed during entire quar-
: er , 22,659 , as against 18,122 last year , an
Increase of 4,557.
A comparison of the earnings of men and
women In the entire state shows that 69.2
per cent of them earned between $60 and
J125 during the quarter , whllo 37.8 per cent
earned between $75 and $100. The num
ber that earned over $150 In the quarter
( equivalent to $2 n day ) was significant. On

[ Irst line of insurgent trenches , wheeled 41
the left and drove the enemy toward the
lake. During this maneuver the Filipinos In
concealed trenches on the right opened fire
ibut the brigade , partly owing to the high
grass , had few hit.
The Ninth infantry crept around lo the
right , flanking tbo trenches , driving out
the Filipinos and killing many of them.
The Colorado regiment advanced to the lake.
Two companies encountered trenches on top
of a knoll , where the Filipinos stood walst-
Rli above pouring a volley upon the ad
vancing Americans. The Colorado ' troops
charged and drove them out , Lieutenant
ColctieJ Moses being wounded In the arm
as ho Jumped Into the trench.
In the meantime General Wheaton's column
advanced ono and a half miles toward
Paratiaquo , where the Americans found a
strong trench on a rldgo out of which they
drove the Filipinos by hard fighting. The i
enemy tried to flank the dismounted troops i
of the Fourth cavalry , accompanying Major
General Lawton , nnd at the same time they
made their only advance , throwing a skir
mish Hue to Hank -the Fourteenth Infantry.
But they were easily repulsed , the Ameri
can artillery coming to the- crest of the hill
and 6 Ii I'll I UK them.
Xnrrow Kwrniio of I.mvtoii.
About 3 o'clock in the afternoon General
Wheaton's brigade , headed by General Lawton -
ton , who , 'in ' his white clothing and helmet ,
on a big , black horse , was a shining mark
for Uio enemy's sharpshooters , circled to
the south of I ns Plnas , encountering a largo
force of Filipinos in the shelter of the trees.
General Lawtoti had a narrow escape. In
the first volley of the enemy the horses of
throe of his staff olllcers were shot from
under them. The Colorado regiment bore
the brunt of this attack and dispersed the
Filipinos.
Hardly had they finished off that lot when
a largo force appeared In the rear , which
the Ninth Infantry and a part of the Colorado
rado regiment drove away. By this time
nearly the whole division was around Las
Plnas.
The Americans camped for the night soutli
of the town and In the midst of n heavy
rain , At 6 o'clock this morning General
Wheaton advanced upon Las Piiins , with a
troop of cavalry , the Twenty-first Infantry ,
the Colorado regiment , part of the Nlntn
Infantry and two 'mountain guns , crossing
two streams and entering the town with
out firing a nbot.
Ho then advanced upon Paranaque. The
women and children , and for that matter
many K.en , remained In the towns. No
houses were destroyed , though many were
torn by the shells from the war ships.
Kvorywhcro the Americans found white
flags ( lying.
The whole country Is networked with
trenches and the enemy scurried from
shelter to shelter.
Today long trains of commissary wagons
are carrying provisions to the United States
troops along the road which only yesterday
was the stronghold of tbo enemy and the
natives who yesterday were probably carry
ing guns ore today dolling their hats and
groveling before the Americans with ef
fusive greetings of welcome.
The Colorado regiment returned to bar.
racks In Manila tonight. An the ragged and
dusty men marched pant the Lunta , the faeh-
lonable gathering place for Manllaus , they
were heartily cheered.

GOOD HOPE FOR ARBITRATION
Olllflul DiMilnl ( ilvcn to Story Hint
licriiuinyVIII Withhold
Hi Approval.
THE HAGUE , Juno 11. An authoritative
contradiction Is given to the report that
there Is grave danger of the arbitration
scheme failing.
It is pointed out that , although Ger
many may hesitate to recognize the prin
ciple , it has not yet raised any actual ob
jections during the discussion.
LONDON , Juno 12. Tlio correspondent of
the Times nt The Hague says :
"There Is no sulllclent reason ns far as 1
can ascertain to anticipate the failure of
the arbitration scheme. Germany's objec
tions may possibly have been Intimated to
certain members of the conference , but
oven in that case It would be premature to
take a pessimistic view. If difficulties
have arisen they may yet be smoothed over.
Even so formidable a power as Germany
may well pause before assuming the terri
ble responsibility of bringing about the
failure of the conference. "
Olijt'ctlnii of Gfrinnity.
The correspondent of the Dally News at
The Hague says : I learn that Dr. Zorn ,
the German delegato8poko _ on Friday
v jtTrM 't ' * iiirftr i'"i c 1'1 ! " , * " l'--- * * *
a copy of his speech I got a point blank re
fusal , Dr. Zorn saying :
"All I can tell you is that Friday's sitting
was extremely Interesting and that I pre
sented Germany's objections to the scheme
for a permanent arbitration tribunal. "
Notwithstanding this I am able to send a
full analysis of his speech. He spoke slowly
and with difficulty In French. He asserted
that ho was instructed to say that Germany
| could not accept the principle of permanent
] arbitration embodied In Sir Julian Paunco-
foto's draft. It objected , firstly , on principle ,
and ; secondly , on grounds of expediency.
Ho then proceeded to argue that It was
derogatory to n monarch's sovereignty and
j to a nation's Independence. Arbitration
' agreed upon between two nations for a
1 narrowly defined object was one thing , and
arbitration binding a nation for the un-
i knowable future was quite another. A king ,
I holding his title by divine right , could not
] think of divesting himself of an essential
, part of his sovereignty , the right to shape
! the nation's course at a critical time.
I Dr. Zorn concluded his speech amid pain
ful silence.
Sir Julian Pauncefote , replying , said ho
thought the objections of the Germans
shewed n view 'Which many might not con
sider altogether modern.
"As to the doubts expressed regarding
the fitncFa of the Judge I have no doubt , "
j said Sir Julian , "that every slate would take
j pride In nominating its best man. " .
It IB 'believed ' that Dr. Zorn's Instructions
were sent under a misapprehension , as some
of his objections would only apply to the
older schemes superseded by the British
draft.
The correspondent of The Hague asserts
that at last Friday's meeting Dr. Zorn op
posed the arbitration scheme , hut adds that
negotiations are proceeding 'between ' The
Hague and Berlin.
