SCENES AT THE CONTINENTAL. Last
evening was very stirring time at our prlnci-
pal hotels. At the Continental there was one
constant stream OF inComers and outgoers, and
great amount of humor, pleasantly fun
frolie, and fighting. As is usual when a crowd
gathers together during a political campaign
there are always some ambitious speakers who
wish to inhiCt themselves on the assembled
masses But judging from the actions of those
assembled last night in the vicinity of the Con-
tinental and Girard hotels, no one felt in the
humor to listen to harangue. When any one
would attempt ii, he would be shut down In
short metre. There was an immense quantity
of bad whisky drunk and bad Jokes and some
bad heads cracked. All through the crowd
were scattered the stalwart forms of our guar
dians OF the peace, who kept watchful eye over
the assembage, and on tue least appearance of
an incipient row would nip it in the bud. Inside
there was lively assemblage of intoxicated
politicians and others OF kindred family.
At one time drunken Senator from the West
ern part of our country stood up and endeavored
to address the crowd in front of the hotel on
Chestnut street. They, laughed and shouted,
Cheered, and made such racket that he could
not be heard, and shut him up. He got angry,
and told them that he thought they were pack
OF towards, and that If he had bowie knife he
could scatter the whole of them like chatf before
the wind Another, made furious by whisky,
was making some very insulting remarks, when
he was chased some distance by an excited
crowd. Seeing himself hard pushed he drew
revolver, and menaced the crowd with 1t, but
did not shoot. 1t had the desired effect, and
they gave him elbow room.
The fun was kept up until late hour. About
halt-past eleven O'Clock a number of young
men filed past the Continental, cheering for
Geary and Others. They stopped on the corner
Of Ninth and Chestnut Streets and continued
their yells, making the night hideous, until the
police scattered them, and gave imperative
orders 10 all good citizens to keep moving ON.
There were a number of thieves about, and the
sharp eye OF the Chief of the Detectives was on
them.
This morning is like the day after the fair.
The actors OF yesterday and last nights drama
are getting up with aching heads and swim ming
gates are gone to their homes, and things wear
deserted appearance atound our hotels. The
Convention is thing of the past The grand
attack has come and gone. 1t is very hard to
realize that the great agency has passed by so
quietly, and lett so little to remind us of its
presence. What will be the next excitement?
