With Bared Head He Places Wreath on Statue of Lincoln. Chicago, May 31. General Baron Kuroki last night gave a banquet to 50 Chicagoans, which, for expense splendor and unique features, has arely been equaled. The baron gave orders that no expense was to be spared, and his orders were carried out to the letter. The banquet hall was transformed into a marvelous maze of Japanese lanterns, draperies and dainty scrolls, while the menu in cluded the finest wines to be had Baron Kuroki entered heartily into the spirit of Memorial Day. Early in the morning the warrior-viistor and his stall donned their regimentals and it was decidedly a military party which emerged from the Auditorium Annex to go to the home of the Im perial Consul, S. Shimizu. It was the first time the Nipponese visitors had worn their military unitorms. uen eral Kuroki was attired in a clay- colored uniforms, with but one deco ration, a medal for bravery presented by the Mikado. The other members of the party were ablaze with deco ration, but Kuroki wore the really aluable emblem. In the afternoon the general paid ribute to the memory of Abraham Lincoln in an impressive way a way that touched the hearts of the Ameri cans who witnessed it, and a way that Chicagoans probably will remember as the one thing more than any other which gave an insight into the brown( little, grizzled warrior's character. At 3 o'clock the party left the Audi Capitalists Propose to Establish Big Plant In Linn County.

A general strike of sailors and others belonging to tlio French naval reserve began at almost all tho ports of France at daylight to day and throatens tho completo paraly sis of French commerce. Tho naviga tion committees are making enercetie representations to tho government, say ing that the movement is not directed against them and that unless it is set tled immediately it will causo untold injury to French commerce. Ihe naval reserves comprise nearly tho entire maritime population engaged in sea-faring lifo and number 117,000 men, of whom 25,000 aro serving in the navy. In addition to practically all the seamen of the mercantile trade, most of tho longshoremen belong to the na- U reserve. The strike was declared by tho ex ecutive committee of the National Sea men's Union because tho government's ew bill increasing pensions from, $40.80 to $72.50 in the case of seamen and from $15G to $200 in the case of captains is regarded as inadequate. The tie-up is almost completo at tho Mediterranean, Atlantic and Channel ports. The strikers generally left their ships and the government commanded the torpedo-boats and torpedo-boat de stroyers to carry on the mail service with the colonies and with Mediter ranean ports. The French Trans-Atlantic Steamship Company announced today that neither La Provence nor La Oascogne will be able to sail for New York tomorrow, both crews having abandoned their ships. Similar condi tions prevail at Bordeaux. Officials of the French line have re quested the government to land then crews from tho state naval depots, but. no reply has yet been received. Le gally all the companies are in a po sition to coerce the men, as, being members of the naval resorve, the crews are subject to heavy penalties! for insubordination, but it is regarded as more likely that they will try t effect a compromise At Marseilles the sailors and long shoremen struck almost to a man, and all the fishermen drew up their nets. The strike is as complete at Havre. but up to this evening tho men had not struck at Brest. At Toulon tho fitriko is complete; at Dunkirk and Nantes the men are going out, and at aaiem in accoraance witn tne oro-r'"1"'1"' - lue umiuerciai t'uo. ii n.frn;ft j,.r c,frfi0,, ture, Governor Chamberlain yester-1 feet- Tn plfEt will be operated by day announced his appointees to com- leiecxricuy, iurnisnea Dy tne WlKam- pose the Uregon forestry Commis- ee vawey company, sion, with himself and the Director t forestry of the Agricultural Col- PORTLAND MARKETS champion White Stockings and the Rouen tho longshoremen have aban doned their work.
