MISSIONS AT CITY HALL.
Mayor Will Receive French and Belgians This Afternoon.
The French and Belgian Missions which have been delegated by their respective Governments to visit America, especially to honor Cardinal Gibbons on the occasion of that celebration of his golden jubilee will visit the City Hall next Friday. They will be received by Mayor Hylan at the Reception Committee he has appointed at 1 o'clock that afternoon. The committee will meet in the City Hall today to arrange the plans for the reception.
France sends with the mission the Cross of the Legion of Honor for Cardinal Gibbons, while Belgium, which some years ago honored the Cardinal with its highest insignia, charges its mission to express to him the sincerest felicitations of the King and Queen of the Belgians. President Wilson recently received the members of both missions at the White House. The French party is composed of Mons. Julien, the Bishop of devastated Arras; Mons. Baudrillart, a member of the French Academy, and Captain Duthoit and Lieutenant Fory of the French Army. Already the mission has been feted wherever it has gone. Fordham University has conferred an LL.D. on Bishop Julien and Mons. Baudrillart. The French Institute of Letters and Art will receive them this week. The Belgian Mission is headed by Mons. Carton de Wiart. The Reception Committee appointed by the Mayor is as follows:
