the GRANT RECEPTION.
A Change OF Programmes - Some
squirmisg over it-ssiil she Re-
cepsion Will Go on-Grapt Now
90 be Here Monday Afsernoon.

It cannot be denied that the matter Of
the Grant reception has Of late received
quite q setback. he was officially an.
nounced to be here Monday at 9 A. NJ,
but now he is not to reach Gold Hill
before / p. ", and 1t will more likely be
8 O'Clock. when he arrives. This 10
quite an upsetting Of calculations and.
instead OF coming fresh after Q good
nights sleep In Carson. he il to journey
from Lake Tahoe, and DO given to Us
after having been driven down the
mountain to Carson and there received.
brsakflsted and then totsd up here.
Tho foregoing was the situation last
night and remains unchanged as yet and
bids fair to continue 30. It wss an.
nounced at the meeting Of the Reception
Committee In Virginia last evening as
having been telegraphsd to Marshal
Tritle from San Francisco. President
Young then t~sl-grsphed to San Fran
cisco to Mayor Bryant to know II there
had been q change OF programme. The
answer was that there had been and In
accordance with the foregoing. and that
all had been arranged by "our" com.
mittee in San Francisco. President
Young telegraphed back that II any one
in San Francisco was representing the
Comstock people In that matter be was
q fraud.
Sill the preparations to receive Gen.
sral Grant are going on. There was
much talk this morning Of letting the
whole matter drop. but that was decided
to be too boyish to be seriously contem.
plated. President Young says there
will be Q reception, and General Fox
and Col. Stevenson say there will be
one, and there will be one. and the hour
set Is as above. It Is doubtful. how.
ever, II Grant gets here on time. The
change Of programme Is attributed to
Mr.. Yerington. but whether correctly or
not il more than can be known now. 1t
looks like some OF his work, however, to
favor Carson at U cost.
The Committee ON Reception also last
evening appointed q sub committee OF
l2 to sttend upon General Grant upon
his arrival, as follows: n. G. Gillette.
j. W. Mackay, D. E. Mccarthy, w. II.
Smith. Q. G. Goodwin, F. @. Lord, b.
G.. Whitman, d. o. Addison, j. 8.
Young, George Emmett, 8. w. Club.
buck and w. D. @. Gibson. II being
impossible to transact the real business
of the committee until definite word
could be received as to the time OF Gen.
eral Grants arrival. the committee ad-
journed to meet at the Courthouse at i
p. N. sharp today.
The action OF the Executive Committee
on the school children's part in the re.
ception has been r~econsidersd, they will
now take the position at first assigned
them In the programme. The children
in Virginia and Gold Hill are all. or
nearly all, anxious to participate. They
will be provided with flags aud will form
an important and interesting feature Of
the reception.
The change in the hour OF the recep.
ton will Of course necessitate q change
in the time OF forming the procession
and also In the coming together OF the
different societies, companies and ele.
ment composing II. This hour Is now
set at 70 o'clock. NJ, Monday. Notices
will be found In another column touch.

ready and where they are to meet and
what to do.

ting General Grant here Monday at II
o'clock. Should this be q fact there will
be mention to that effect In the Enter.
prise tomorrow morning. The order OF
