the occasion, assembled at the armory In

tailed to march on either side the Presi-
dents carriage. The command marched
down Park and Fifth avenues TO the Fifth
Avenue Hotel, the Presidents quarters,
where It was drawn up.

with people. On Madison Square i was es-
timated that 1000 people were gathered.

from the roof Of a neighboring building
The long line of soldiers in white and gold
with their guns flashing In the sunlight and
the siIrging crowd of citizens, seemed to ap-
proach the New York tower very slowly
Contrasted with the size of the bridge, the
multitudes upon it appeared almost insg

moved over the footway could scarcely bt
