The torrential rain and the general dreariness of Sunday did not prevent hundreds of sightseers from visiting the Atlantic Works In East Boston today to see the yacht Independ ence as she lay moored in the slip there. She was subject to critical scrutiny, and the general opinion was favorable. She has a business-like appearance Jn every line, and when her mast is stepped and sails bent she will be every inch a racer. The mast will be stepped tomor row and the work of fitting out will be gin in good earnest. All the standing rigging Is ready and the sails are made. The steering wheel is not yet in posi tion. The deck of. steel and aluminum has not yet been covered with canvas. That, however, can be done In -two days. The orders are to hurry her completion and to lose no time.

General Chaffee at midnight last night isoued a farewell Or der ending the American relief expedition in China. The American troops will board the transports next Wednesday at Taku and Thursday will leave direct for Manila. M. Pichon, the French Minister, left here for home this morning. A meeting of the Foreign Ministers will be held tomorrow, but it is not likely that much will be accomplished, as some of the Ministers have not yet received in structions from their home governments. The Ministers, . commenting upon the blame attached to them by the people for their slowness, .say that as a. matter of fact they are powerless to act without orders from home. One of the Foreign Ministers told the correspondent of the Associated Press yesterday that he had been instructed to co-operate heartily with the other Ministers. He found, upon con sultation with his colleagues, that their instructions were absolutely different from his. Consequentl j , co-operation was prac tically impossible. , British Plan of Bond Issue.

Great Brit alp and the United States alone oppose the joint guarantee project. "The British authorities emphatically decline to co-operate with the German ex pedifon to Southern Chi Li, and it is now announced that the expedition is abandoned." Jnpnn Secures Maaampho Lease.

KING WILL NOT ABDICATE RUMORS COXCERlflXG THE SITUA - ' '"ION IN SER.VIA DENIED. Bucharest, Physician's Report Queen Dragila's Condition Striking Innovations. BELGRADE, May 19.-A11 rumors "re gardlng the abdication of Klqg Alexander, me resignation or tne uamnet, ana tne banishment Of Queen Dragha growing out "of 'the sensational experiences of the Servian royal family, are declared to be without foundation. -Professor Cantacu zen, of Bucharest, who was summoned, with Dr. Werthelm, of Vienna, announces that Queen pragha presents all the symp toms of false or nervous pregnancy, and that the rapid development of symptoms was brought on by the advice given Her Majesty by Dr. Caulet, who, in urging her to lead a sedentary iife, encouraged the Queen in the opinion that she was enciente and produced an abnormal con dition calqy,lated to mislead both herself and her entourage. The two specialists declare that Queen Dragha is suffering from nephritis, -but that her condition is not serious. DECAY OE PARLIAMENT. Mental and Physical Apathy of Mem bers of the Government. LONDON, May 19. Henry W. Massing ham, of the Daily News, and other writ ers, draw attention to the bitterness and the personal and public attitude of the Conservative leaders toward -Winston Churchill. A. J. Balfour, the governmtnt leader in the House of Commons, who Is usually so genial towards others, has en tirely ignored thi3 young member of the House, who, with one speech, has now gained a prominence which everybody says hia party cannot afford to overlook. The chief doubt of his success, appears to be his lack of means, which are at present quite insufficient to enable him to devote that large amount of time re quired by the duties of a Cabinet Min ister. The sneers of Mr. Brodrlck and other members of the government at Mr. Churchill's reference to his father's fight and his own right to raise the tattered banner of economy and to protest against the growing vast expenditure has had but a slight effect among the broader-minded Conservatives and Radicals. An explanation of Mr. Churchill's diffi culties In securlpg fair treatment in the House of Commons is perhaps supplied by T. P. O'Connor, the Irish Nationalist, who this week is writing a series of ar ticles entitled "Is Parliament Decaying?" In these articles, Mr. O'Connor dilates upon the ultimate mental and physical apathy which! prevails amorig members of the government who are jaded 'by long office-holding and frequent attendance at this enervating "hothouse on the Thames." Mr, Balfour, he says, Is quite worn out. and without a spark of fresh ness. Senseless gossip pervades the lob bies and dining-rooms. There is a feel ing, which is not confined to the Liberals, that Lord Salisbury has "stuffed his Cab inet with his own relatives," and even Mr. Chamberlain, the Colonial Secretary, is said to be discontented. "They have packed the Cabinet against me," Is one saying attributed to him. According to Mr. O-'Connor, Lord Hugh Cecil, son of the Marquis of Salisbury, has done much to aggravate this antag onism to the Premier's nepotism. "When this fanatical, extereme, foolish and headstrong young man gets up and pro nounces his view, people begin to ask, 'Is there no escape from these Cecils?' And so poor Lord Hugh, with his pallid face and his long, thin, lanky body, and his. wild and youthful enthusiasm, is the straw that breaks the, camel's back of endurance by his part of his family." - INNOyATJONSf-AT "WINDSOR. Changes Ordered by the King: Come as a Shock to Englishmen. LONDON, May 19. Only now are people at Windsor and the royal retainers begin ning to realize what the death of Queen Victoria meant to them. Sweeping changes were inaugurated this week In the royal establishments. The older ser vants are being pensioned. Frazer, the late Queen's police superintendent, al most as familiar a figure as the Queen herself on public occasions, goes into re tirement, and head keepers and gardeners disappear into the obscurity of the pension list. The King is putting his house in order with a vengeanoe. The Prince Consort's rooms, which had been closed for many j ears by Queen Victoria's order, and which were kept as they were at the time of his death, have been opened and refurnishd in modern style, and the state apartments have been transformed into rooms where the members of the royal family can live In comfort. The jubilee presents and many favorite pictures of Queen Victoria have been sent to Lon don, and the Queen's personal belongings have been distributed among the mem bers of her family. Even her dogs have not escaped the new order. The smooth coated collies, which were her especial favorites, have been distributed among the people of Windsor, and the other col lies, dachshunds and pomeranians, about 70 in all, have been claimed by. various Princesses, for King Edward and Queen Alexandra care little for anything but terriers and pugs. Next month 5000 dozens of costly wine in the Queen's cellars will be sold at public auction in London. Each bottle will have the royal label on' it. Various reasons are given for this almost un nrecedented action. The most probable consists In the fact that royal hospitality is now generally confined to whisky, soda and champagne and to the lapse of the practice by which court function aries formerly" received a bottle of Ma deira as part of their salaries. All' these things come as a shock to the people w,ho had almost grown to believe that Queen. .Victoria would live forever. THE TURKISH APOLOGY. Effort to Close the Mall Bns Incident at Constantinople. CONSTANTINOPLE, May 19 Ahmed Tewflk Pasha, Ottoman Minister of For eign Affairs, called upon the Ambassadors and notified them of Turkey's desire to rei establish the status quo ante in the postal question and the intention to send a high functionary to apologize for the violations of the foreign mall bags. The Ambas sadors met yesterday at the residence of the German Ambassador to determine what attitude to adopt in view of the complete submission of the Sublime Porfe. It is understood that the German Ambas sador considers the Incident closed. The other powers, however, decline to regard a return to the status quo ante as an adequate settlement; and the British, French and Austrian Embassies have even declined to transmit the explanations of Tewflk Pasha to their governments. SUICIDE OF A CLERGYMAN. Rev. M. D. Babcock, an American, Took His Life in Naples. NAPLES, May 19. Further investiga tion into the case of the American clergy, man who committed suicide here yester day In the International hospital by sev ering an artery of his wrist and swallow ing corrosive .sublimate, and who was mentioned in yesterday's, dispatch as Mr. Maltle. an American evangelical minister, proves the suicide to have been the Rev. Matble Davenport Babcock. NEW YORK. May 19. One of the closest friends whom Dr. Babcock has in this city was W. D. Barbour, a member of the Brick Presbyterian Church congrega tion. It was Mr. Barbour who yesterday received the cablegram announcing the fact that Dr.,Babcock had died in Naples cf Medlterranea'n fever, and he at once cabled back for particulars. He had xe- j.ceived no reply tonight, and the first In- tlmatlon that he had that there was an eienunj or su.cide I,. thecase was when he was shown tonight the- -Associated Press dispatch from Kaples. Se said? "If .this dlsnatch-ls correct, anrl I do not doubt that It is, then Dr. Babcbck was out of his head If he took his. life. Dr. Babcock saw everything In the sunniest !llght, and he was just bubbling over wfth good health, and was an athlete." Dr. Babcopk had been pastor of the Brick Church since November. 8, 1S99, com-, ing from Brown Memorial Church In Bal timore. He received" a salary of $12,000 a year. i Though a young, man, Dr. Bab cock attained eminence as a pulpit orator - 1 an theologian He had- the reputation of being a scholar and a worker, full of energy and fearless In hte methods qf thought.

Ded ication day will find Rainbow City almost, ready for its pleasure-seeking population. The great' buildings in the Exposition City are. practically completed, but the installation of exhibits, has proceeded very slowly, and completeness in that re spect stretches away to some indefinite date in June. There has been a concen tration of energy in the effort lb prepare the exposition grounds for the opening ceremonies, and an Immense amount has been accomplished in the last 21 hours. An army of 3000 men is engaged in clean ing the buildings, grounds and streets, and thousands of carpenters, painters and other artisans are at work on and in the buildings. The last -of tne network of scaffolding that for weeks has enveloped buildings and towers ia being torn away, and the exterior view tqmarrow will be marred by but few signs of incomplete- ne$s. The scenes within the 'grounds today were interesting ones. The sun fought its way through rain -and clouds by noon, and a hright.afternoonvbrought thousands of visitors. Thp tenants- pf the Midway were idle today, and many attendants -at the foreign, exhibits, mingling with the crowd, gave It a cosmopolitan air. The Mexican band gave a concert in the plaza and drew a large crowd. " The city is rapidly filling- with visitors', and if tomorrow dawns bright, it is esti mated that 150,000 persons will participate in the ceremonies. Vice-President Roose velt, accompanied by the members of his family, arrived tonight.' Senators Hanna and Henry Cabot Lodge reached here to day and spent the afternoon at the grounds, and the members of the St. Louis Exposition directorate were also conspicuous visitors.

It was intended to protect the Independence of Cuba, but the wording gives other Interpretations. The United States is Inconsistent in asking naval stations when the amendment pro vides that no concessions shall be given to foreign powers. Such a demart" raises the question whether the United States does not consider, Cuba a part of .its possessions.". The report of the minority virtually accepts the first and second clauses. For the third clause, the following is substituted: "That the- Government" of Cuba sub scribes to the Monroe Doctrine and will help the United Slates to 'enforce it against other nations trying- to violate it." . J- . , For the fourth-clause the -followlngj is" substituted:- "Cuba does notxrecognize acts of. Inter vention which are not in conformity with the Foraker resolution and the laws of the United States." The seventh "clause reads: "Cuba will maintain naval stations, handing theih over to the United States in time of war." ' The report of the minority recommends a commercial treaty based upon recipro city. " The report of the majority has caused considerable surprise. It wjs generally believed that the committee oh rela tions would Recommend acceptance of the Piatt amendment on the basis of the interpretation 'given by Secretary Root, but it was not expected that such addi tions would be made to various clauses as the majority recommends. A promi nent Cubn 'lawyer said today: xne majority report is not an ac ceptance of the Piatt amendment, as it distinguishes intervention on different grounds.""' A person who is in close touch with the Spanish government made the follow ing staternf nt to -a representative of the Associated- Press: , ,"It Is a fact, to which the attention of all Americans should ,b'e called, that not .only rfpaln, but Spanish residents in Cuba both those who have retained their Spanish nationality by inscription and those who have become Cuban by not In scribingare closely watching develop ments in this matter of the relations be tween the United States and Cuba. This is ,a question which seems ,to lnvplve more than the Piatt amendment merely. It seems, to tend ultimately toward an nexation. "Spaniards here and in Spain favor an nexation. N.ot only do they fear that any government by Cubans, not con. trolled by the United States, would en danger property and even life, but they also favor annexation because they be lieve it woUld restore the Spanish In fluence in politics, because with the al liance they would make with -the former autonomists, the conservative Cubans and the Americans who belong here, they would control the -politics of the island by ah overwhelming majority. This con dition would meet with the approval of Spaih because In her commercial rela tions -with Cuba, she would be bene fited hy preponderance of Spanish In fluence. Spain has great influence In South America and is trying to main tain her Influence in Cuba. The only solution of the problem Is annexation. Spaniards will not become Cubans, but they are ready to become citizens of the United States. ' "AH the Spaniards in Cuba and the conservative Cubans desire that the Piatt amendment should not be accepted, hop ing that, in such an event, the next Con gress will take a more annexationist view of the relations between the United States and Cuba. Indeed, some of our most prominent Spaniards and Cubans have gone as far as to" approach Governor-General Wood to tell him that the most conservative and American solu tion of the present .problem would be the rejection of the Piatt amendment, and urge that the United States shoula take special notice of the situation m order to see what deep root the desire for an nexation hfts taken."- Dangerous Derelicts Reported.
