"Here upon this historic Place’ in France’s own capital city, where meet the nations of the earth, there will stand, with France’s gracious permission an abiding interpreter of America's gra itude to France for her participation In Amer- ' ica’s war, and of the principles of civil and political liberty which were the life and soul of that momentous struggle. Our interpreter, who shall it be? Whom could it be. If truth has rights, and merit has reward, but Gilbert Motier, Marquis de Lafayette? Then genius of art, we pray : thee, give us back the form of our loved j Lafayette.” Archbishop Ireland’s address tvas deliv ered in French, and was frequently inter rupted by applause. The ceremony con cluded with American melodies, finishing with "The Stars and Stripes Forever.” The following poem, w-ritten by Mr. Frank Putnam of Chicago, was read: I. To France as to the lister of her soul Columbia sends this wreath of immor telles, Green for the grave of her Immortal son: Columbia rears this love-engirdled shaft. The tribute of her children, and a prayer That never iti all the changing after years Shall night o'ertake 1 the fame of Lafay ette. IX. Our fathers’ fathers knew him face to face; , They grasped his hand in gladness when he came; They heard hitn wise at'council in the hail; They saw him like a lion in the field, A light heart that was stranger to des spair; A brave heart that in triumph or defeat Was steadfast to its purpose as the star*. 111. He did not ask for honors or for gold; He volunteered to follow, not to lead. But chivalry w-os conscious gjf its kind. So our great Captain took him to his arms. And Love has twined the chaplet for his brow. Where history, cowled and solemn, pens his tale, Beneath the line that sets his titles forth. Be this the legend writ across the page; "When freedom's feet were weary in the wilds, He thrust his sword between her and her foes.” IV. Republic lo Republic! Yonder sea. That bore your standards to us in our need. Shall rise-In mist and wander amid the worlds. Ere ever the debt we owe you be forgot Ere ever the debt Man owes you be re paid. Yea, on this* day to Freedom eonsecrate, We pledge anew beside the Hero's bier Unfaltering faith to that Eternal Truth In whose behalf he made our cause his own. Beneath whose banner he led our ragged hosts. With Washington from darkness to the day. T. Come Britain, elder brother of our blood; Prophetic Slav and German patriot, conic: Italia.

In his white name beseech Almighty God To quicken in us the spirit that was his— The son of France anil brother of all mankind. Asa mark of esteem, n magnificent wreath has been placed on the portrait of the late Col. de Ville Bois-Marueil, which hangs in the Boer building at the exposition. Attached to the wreath was the inscription: "In honor of Col. de Ville Bols-Maureil, the Lafayette of South Africa, from some Americans."

Sinclair of West Vir ginia, who told him that the fight in the Committee on R;solutions over the silver plank was a hard one and it would be either adopted or defeated by a very c ose margin. Senator Hill received a telegram from the Dem cratic members of the legisla ture of Massachusetts in which they said that George Fred Williams did not ropre sert their views on the platform and they were with Senator Hill for conservatism.

LAWTON UP SAVANNAH SPOKE ON MILITARY LAW. Hon. J. H. (ioniar of Anjrnata De livered a Tellliifc A ddreM—Com mittee Reported in Favor of Pay ins: for Expert Medical Testimony, Expected It Will Be tdopted To day—Question of Lirenaen to Law School Graduate*!. Warm Springs, Ga., July 4.—The seven teenth annual session of the Georgia Bar Association met here this morning. About 125 lawyers from various parts of the state are in attendance. All mem bers of the Supreme Court are present. The features of the day were the ad dresses of Hon. J. R. Gomar of Augusta and Col. A. R. Lawton of Savannah. In the report of the Executive Committee by Burton Smith, i was stated the as sociation had finally managed to get out of debt, there now being SSOO in the treasury. Following the report of the Executive Committee, was the address of Hon. Jas. R. Gomer of Augusta, president of the association. The address was pro nounced the best ever delivered before the association. The paper of Col. Lawton of Savannah on characteristics of military law was one of the features of the meeting. Tt was full of information and threw con siderable light on the subject. Col. Law ton is recognized as authority on all ques- tions of military law. He began by giv ing a history of military tactics. Col. Lawton upheld Article 62 of the United States Army Regula tions about which tlifre has been considerable discussion. The article while inconsistent with anything In civil law, provides that all offenses not capi tal and all disorders and neglects of which officers and soldiers may be guilty of prejudice to good order and military discipline shall be punished at the discre tion of a court-martial. Col. Lawton took the position that this was also frequency necessary In the army, as the soldier de vised many plans of disobeying orders where there was no punishment provided, and the above section covered all the grounds. He said it would be well if a lawyer, guilty of conduct unbecoming a lawyer and a gentleman, were dismissed from the profession. Mr. Terrell called attention to the re printing of the Georgia reports. Advance sheets were sent here for distribution. The reports are to be annotated by Judge Howard Van Epps, who explained what was to he done. The edition will be much cheaper and of greater convenience to the lawyers. Treasurer Z. D. Harrison made his an nual report. One hundred and seventy nine had paid dues, while thirty-nine had not been heard from. The money receiv ed during the year amounted to $1,480.36, and the total disbursements to $1,053. A. R. Lawton of Savannah, chairman of the Committee on Jurisprudence, made a report furnishing compensation for expert witnesses. The committee recommended that there should be no discrimination in paying. The Bar Association should not cheapen itself by taking interest in mat ters which does not pertain to lawyers. This is somewhat of a blow to the physi- clans who have asked compensation for testimony. The committee recommended that there should be no further obstacles put in the way of obtaining the truth by special legislation. The association was requested to extend its regrets to the med ical association that it cbuld not assist in assisting the obtaining of fees for expert testimony the report was laid on the table until to-morrow. Adoption is eocpected. The special committee on expert testi mony did not report. Col. W. M. Ham mond of Nashville 1s chairman of the Committee on Judicial Administration and Remedial Procedure. The committee had but few suggestions to make. It was rec ommended to try the present system of electing judges by the people for awhile, and if it does not prove satisfactory, in a few years to try anew system. The Committee on Admission to the Bar made ihe following report, which will, in all probability bring about a healed discussion to-morrow when the report Is taken from the table. ‘‘We have but one recommen dation to moke; that Is that the section allowing graduates of law schools to be licensed without standing the examination be repealed. W, H. Hill of Atlanta is chairman of this committee. This question was up last year and brought out lively argu ment between Washington Dessau of Ma con and Judge Emory Speer. Judge Speer is not at the mee.lng, but Chancellor W. B. Hill of the University, will probably speak against the adoption of the .report. Mr. Dessau will probably speak In its favor. The members of the association are divided cn the question, and what dis position will be made is hard to fore tell. . The association adjourned at 1 o'clock until to-r.lght at 8 p nr, when R. L. Ber ner delivered a patriotic address. AMERICA'S POLICY. It I* Defined In a IH*patch to the Emhasny at Berlin. Berlin. July 4—An important dispatch from Washington was received at the American embassy to-day. It is understood that the dispatch clear ly outlines the entire present China policy of the United States. The main features of the programme are the restoring of or der in China, the obtaining of full damages for outrages and the loss of life among American citizens and missionaries resid ing in China and the promising of cor responding share of military aid, wherever American Interests require It. Under no condition, however, will the United States become a party to the division of China or to territorial conquests. AFTER THE K. A B. H. R. Reported the Tennessee Central I* Trying *<> Buy It.

For the Foreign Troop* to Attempt to Reaeh Pekin. London, July 5, 2:30 e. m.—The com manders of the allies in Tien T-sin inform the correspondents that It would be sui cide to attempt to reach Pekin with the troops now available, in the face of the colossal force of Imperial troops, and Boxers occupying the country between Tien Tsin and Pekin. So far from taking the offensive the i2,000 international troops at Tien Tsin, and the 8,000 others at Taku, and intermediate points, can barely keep up communications, fighting Incessantly with overwhelming numbers, using far more numerous artillery pieces than the allies. This telegram has been received: "Shanghai, July 4, 11:10 a. m., via Che Foo.—Tien Tsin city fell between 7 and 8 o'clock In the morning of June 30.” It is understood that Shanghai undoubt edly referred to the native city of Tien Tsin. from 'which the Chinese have been bombarding the foreign quarter, and the dispatch is taken to mean that the alliis are more than holding their own. Other advices received by way of Shanghai aver that the Chinese losses around Tien Tsin are between 7,000 and 8.000, according to official estimates. The correspondent of The Express at Che Foo. telegraphing Wednesday, says Admiral Seymour was wounded, while sitting in a house at Tien Tsin, by Chi nese sharpshooters. Official news received at Che Foo shows that the Chinese have been guilty of hor rible cruelty toward the wounded and captured, subjecting them to shat is known as the ling ohe. or the slicing pro cess. Under this hideous rite, the bodies of the fallen have been mutilated. The Russians are retaliating by the wholesale shooting of natives. The sltualion, according to the Express correspondent, shows signs of drifting into barbarism and savagery. Europeans and Americans resident in Shanghai are quite In a panic over what Is viewed as the inadequate mtliiary pre parations of the Powers. A dispatch to the Express from Shang hai says that according to the best mili tary estimate 500,000 men will be necessary to subjugate Northern China, and even then it will take two or three years. The forces of the Chinese empire have gath ered such motion that even Japan’s full strength launched now would be unequal lo the task of restoring order. The Tao Tai Sheng of Changhai issued a proclamation on Wednesday practically forbidding foreign warships approaching the Yang-tse-Klang. saying that If (hey do so Ihe Chinese authorities will not hold themselves responsible for the con sequence*. It Is considered that the Chi nese officials arc preparing a way to evade responsibility If an outbreak occurs. Even LI Hung Chang Is suspected. The for eigners are simply aghast at the extent of the Chinese armaments which have been sy*iematlcally accumulated. The decision of the admirals not to at tempt the relief of the besieged legation force* has filled the entire European com munity, the Dally Mali's Shanghai corre spondent says, with bitlernes* and despair. Few, however, affirm that any other course Is possible. The weakness of the allied forces left no other course open. It Is pointed out that the Chinese opposing Admiral Sey mour were only a fraction Qf the nuge force now cutting off the capital from T>n Tsin, and which numbers 3:0,000 nearly •11 well armed. The allies have no real means of transport, and there Is no food in the country, a* It I* being laid waste. The question of ammunition I* also a se rious on*. Only Japan, and to a leaser •xtent. Russia, are able to push up war oaterlai tn tbe v*m quantities made necessary by the continuous fighting. Though a transport will soon arrive at Taku, the present pressure is not re lieved. The consensus of opinion among military and naval authorities Is that It tvfil re quire al least 30,000 men to rescue the Eu ropeans in Pekin The elites will have to hold Taku In strenglh, and the occupa tion of strategic points on the railway to Tien Tsin will be most ult. Tien Tsin itself Is none too strongly occupied. A dispatch to the Dally Mail from Che Foo, dated July 1, eavs that Wei Hal Wei has befin* placed under mariial law and that no passengers are allowed to land there. Dispatches re,Lived al Brussels report tha! the secretary of ihc Belgian legation at Pekin has been killed by the Boxers. WANT TO DESTROY THE FORT. From It the C hinese- Were kht-llinu tlie Allien In Tien T*ln. London. July s.—The Times’ Shanghai correspondent, telegraphing July 3, 10 p. m.. says: "The following information has been communicated to me from a trustworthy quarter. It was brought by a special courier who left Pekin, June 27. He sta:es that 15,000 Boxera and Chinese troops at tacked the legations on that day. They were repulsed with loss. The Emperor and Empress Dowager are there, surrounded by their personal attendants, *ll Boxers. The Imperial princes have erected an al tar In the palace, where Boxer riles are performed. "The attack of 'the allied forces upon the native city of Tien Tain began at 8 o'clock a. m., June 30, and the city war taken at 2 p. m. The main object is the destruction of the city fort, from which th foreign settlement is shelled. “1 am informed that the total of Japan ese troops embarked is 15,C00, and that a further force of 30,000 has been mobilized and Is ready for embarkation.” REPORT THEM ALL KILLED.
