The Times says: "The details of Mr. Carnegie's scheme disarm almost .all previous criticisms. The gift, which is unquestionably the most magnificent on record, bids fair to be at the same time the most widely and permanently useful." AT THE MANSION HOUSE. New York; Merchants Received by the Lord Major of London. LONDON, June 7. The Lord Mayor. Frank Green, and the Sheriffs received the delegation of the New York Chamber of Commerce at the Mansion House today. About 20 of the delegates were pre sented to the Lord Mayor and were shown over the Mansion House A number of members of the London Chamfer of Com merce, Including Lord Brassey and Sir Albert Krollit, were present, while among others there were Rear-Admiral Erben, U. S. A., and Hiram Maxim. The Lord Mayor addressed the Ameri cans, thanking them in the warmest terms "for their visit and declaring that noth ing could have done more to promote a perfect understanding and unity "between the two greatest nations in the world. He alluded to Morris K. Jessup's refer ence In his speech at the banquet Wednes day to the impossibility of jealous rivalry existing between the United" States, and 3reat Britain as one of the" truest things ever said. Lord Brassey spoke in a similar strain. Mr. Jessup, in replying said: "Your kindness has captivated out hearts. We are not worthy of It."

Mr. Jessup then referred to his fellow delegates aa "ehfldren of this groat country," and concluded with expressions of fervent thanks -for their reception.

Andrew Carnegie was the center of at traction throughout. After the ceremonies the Lord Mayor went tip to him and said he especially wanted lo shake hands with Mr. Carnegie, who said: "In New York, in my young and poor days, when I read about Dick Whlttlng ton, I little thought I should stand here shaking the Lord Mayor's hand." . " The Lord Mayor replied: "We read nothing else today but of Mr. Carnegie's splendid gifts, and in the name of the English people, I want tb thank you for your exampled generosity." The delegates were then entertained at Informal luncheon In Salters Hall by the London Chamber of Commerce. CHAMBER OP COMMERCE BANQUET Press Comment on the Cordiality of the Sentiments Expressed. LONDON, June 7. Appreciation of the cordiality of the sentiments Americans and British are now so frequently ex changing is the burden of the comments of the afternoon papers on the Chamber of Commerce banquet. The St. James' Gazette is so friendly that It advocates a display of the Stars and Stripes along side the Union Jack on all the public buildings July 4, on the same principle that the English university men group the light blue and the dark blue (the col ors of Cambridge and Oxford, respective ly), when they meet. The Globe alone takes exception to the dictum that "commerce Is the great peacemaker of the world," and thinks trade rivalry and the desire to secure new markets are liable to prove fruitful sources of trouble. The Westminster Gazette says: "Mr. Chamberlain said it would almost be worth a great war to see the Union Jack and the Stars and Stripes floating side hy side. A less martial w'ay of cul tivating good feeling between the two races was adopted when the London Chamber of Commerce entertained the New York Chamber of Commerce at dinner." - The Times is rather distressed at the fact that nobody referred to the Derby or yacht race, but that the chambers stuck to their commerce "with praise worthy .. determination, and says that whatever happened in the forenoon, the evening was most correctly spent. The paper adds: "We are glad to see Lord Lansdowne quoting those admirable words repently uttered by President McKinley, who ex pressed the hope that 'our past and In creasing prosporlty may be fruitful of nothing but good to our elders in the brotherhood of nations.' "The most daring speaker, perhaps, was Mr. Griscom. He said his- countrymen hoped to build up their -shipping trade. They had made a beginning and, with the co-operation of their, government tniBted soon tb see their flag flying side by side with that of Great Britain. Con sidering how frightened some of us have been at this beginning, and how little we appreciate 'co-operation' between the state and shipping Interests in America, Mr. Griscom was certainly a bold .man." The Westminster Gazette suggests' that the banquet may "be regarded as the friendly handshake which preee'des a vig orous encounter," and adds; "It served at least to demonstrate that If our American rivals, ore going to knock us out of time In the markets of the world, our merchants mean to take their fate-in the test' of 'splrltsr" ' '" - 'A MOORISH "EMBASSY.

The Journal of Washington as follows: Advices from the Orient are far from re assuring as to the maintenance of peace In the tuture, even after the suc cessful adjustment of the exit ing difficulties between China and the powers. Those who have recently come from Japan confirm the reports of trained observers there that the Japanese are generally preparing for an early war with Russia.

The Herald's Washington correspondent says: High explosives have disturbed relations between the bureau of ordinance and the board c-T ordnance and fortifications. A bitter controversy has been raging be tween these two branches of the Army -for 'more than -a" year and has been brought to the attention! of Secretary Root for final action.

The board of ordnapce and fortifications, presided over by General Miles, has recommended that the Secretary of War acquire the pat ents upon the explosive shells named. The board, of which Major Rogers Blr neys is president, has been conducting tests at Sandy Hook. These explosives included thorite, maxlmlte, rendrock and others. Its report1 has Just been received, but General Buffington declines to make It public It is known, however, that the board reports that "after exhaustive trials of thorite as a shellflller, including field, siege and seacoast shell. It is found that a reasonable degree of efficiency cahnot be obtained, and the board therefore recom mands that the tests- be discontinued. In the course of trials made with high ex plosives, thorite and the thorite mixture have been both tested with unfavorable results, as compared with other explo sives." Maxlmlte seems "to hare pleased the board more than thorite. The board of ordnance and fortifications thinks anlraUa Influenced the ordnance bOard in. its con clusion. In the ease of the Isham shell an ordnance board found that "the Isham projectile Is not best adapted to the ends sought and fills no present or prospective necessity of the service."

Part of the morning in the trial of Lulu Piince Kennedy for the' murdering "of ner hus band was taken up In arguing the privi lege claimed by the state in bringing in testimony bearing on the acta, conduct and character of the prisoner previous to the killing.
