CHICAGO, Sept. 6.-The special train
| bearing the Marquis of Lorne, Princess
Louise and the party arrived at Kensing
| ton at 1870 this morning. The train con-
sisted of three drawing room and sleepers.
| one hotel car and baggage car. The gov
ernor general and Col. De Winton were the
only important members of the party who
| were awake. Mr.. Johnson, of the Pullman
| company, paid his respects and welcomed
the visitors. The private palace car of the
company was attached to the train, which
| was then moved up to the Pullman station.
| Many residents of Pullman and some
| strangers were at the station in the hope
of getting a glimpse at royalty. In this,
| however. they were deceived. Disregard
| ing the evidence of welcome in numerous
flags and general holiday appearance,
the princess did not appear at all.
| The marquis and Col. De Winton, piloted
| by MIR. Johnson, took carriage and spent
nearly two hours in inspecting the car
| works, hotels and residences of the city,
| when the party re-embarked for Chicago
The train came in over the Rock Island
| road, and was met at the depot by Potter
Palmer and an abundance of ca rriages
There has been great deal of quiet
preparations going on in the hotel for
several days, and when the distinguished
party returned to the Palmer house it was
under festoons of flags of both countries.
Apartments, including twenty rooms on the
parlor floor, awaited their occupancy.
They were met and welcomed by Col
Tourtellotte of Gen. Sherman's staff, who
will be their official host while in the
states. The party consists of his Excellency
the Marquis of Lorne, Princess Louise
Miss Hervey, Miss Thrill, Col. De Winton
Capt. Bogat, J. Bogat, DR.. Barnette, two
clerks, two orderlies, and eight servants
The Marquis of Lorne is a wholesome
| looking man of seemingly 80 years or
| thereabouts. He is of middle height a
pronounced blonde in complexion, slightly
inclined toward corpulency. He wore de-
| cidedly worse clothes than any of his
suite, and was absolutely slouchy in con-
| trast with the miracle of tailor's art in
which Secretary Johnson turned out His
excellency wore suit of olive drab Scotch
goods, the coat being much wrinkled in
back by wear. His head gear consisted of
wide brim Alpine felt hat. He wore his
watch chain outside of his coat, his time
| piece resting in his breast pocket. Alto
gether he would strike one as an average
Britisher on holiday tour. The princess
was very charry of letting herself be seen
| during the stop at Pullman. None of the
dozens of curious folks had even passing
glance at her, and owing to Mr.. Palmer's
excellent arrangements she was almost as
amply hidden when she walked from car
to carriage. The passing glance, how
ever, revealed a woman inclined to flesh,
with rather too much color in her face, and
blue eyes of no particular expression. In
| an ordinary throng she would attract no
more attention than the average matron of
