WIZARDS RAILROAD.
Grand Reception at st. Paul of the Magnate
and His Guests.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Sept. 3-The Willard
party arose early this morning, breakfasted
at the Hotel Lafayette, then repaired to
Lake Minnotonka depot, where a train of
eight cars was in readiness to take all to St.
Paul, and it was run to its destination inside
of an hour. Upon arrival at :. Paul grand
reception was given the party. The mayor
and members of the council and distin-
guished citizens were on hand with an
abundance of carriages. Soldiers were
drawn up in front of the depot, presenting
an imposing appearance, and military bands
filled the air with music. AS the procession
moved up Third street from the depot an
ovation of the most elegant character greeted
the party on every side. The buildings
were profusely decorated with flags and
banners streaming, and beautiful archways
were at every corner. AT the junction of
Cedar street was an archWay of unusual size
surmounted by a gilded dome, which was
supposed to represent q hemisphere. Upon
this archway was a large likeness of
President Willard and the greeting, "St Paul
welcomes her guests right heartily and does
honor to the Northern Pacific railway"
Some beautiful young ladies in white occu-
pied stand beneath the archway, and show
cred bouquets of flowers upon the guests
side of the street were long stands gaily dec
Grated, and there stood hundreds of fanci-
fully dressed little girls, who also showered
bouquets into the carriages. Down every
street, as far as the eve could reach, were seen
dense crowds of people packing either side
while every building was literally draped in
gorgeous decorations. This is the greatest
crowd st. Paul has ever known" was re-
marked by the older citizens.
The procession, which was two hours
passing given point, included military, the
fire department. leading citizens and wagons
representing every industry of the North
west. 1t was reviewed by President Willard
and his party at Rices Park After viewing
the procession the guests were driven all
over the city. President Willard and Gen
eral Grant occupied the foremost carriage.
From St. Paul the party left for Minneap-
oils at 1890, there to receive a second grand
reception. The st. Paul reception was char
acterized by elegance, completeness of detail
and order The cost to the city was over
$4,000, which was appropriated for the pur-
pose by the council.

A CAPITAL OF A MILLION.
Increase of the Capital of the First Ma
tional, and a Loan and Deposit Com
pany To Be Organized.

1t is authoritatively announced the capital
stock of the First National Bank will, at an
early day, be increased from $500, 600 to 81 O00-
600, III accordance with the original intention
of the new syndicate in the recent reorganiza-
ton. Among the largest stockholders, who
will own in the aggregate the largest part of
the stock, will be William Fl. English. W. C. De-
Pauw, John Reynolds, E. F. Cavpool,
Simon Yandes, A. B. Conduit, NJ. A. Downing
j, J. Brown, president of the First National
Bank of New Albany; NJ. L. Pierce, president of
the First National Bank of Lafayette, and F.
Nippert, of Terre Haute. The stockholders will
all be men of large responsibility. A loan, trust
and safe deposit company will be organized in
connection with the banking business. The
laws governing national banks will not permit
them to make loans on real estate, and the loan
and deposit company is therefore
ganized as separate concern from the First
National, although it VIII be managed by those
controlling the affairs of the hank and will he
backed by the capital of the bank. Mr.. English
will be at the head of both concerns and his office
Will be located in his new building at the corner
of Circle and Meridian streets. With the IN
creased stock the First National Will be made one
of the safest repositories in the United States The
new movement is OF great financial inn
portance and promises well. Mr.. English
left last night for the East to make arrange
ments for the organization, and induce several
eastern capitalists to join in the syndicate.

MINNEAPOLIS, Min, Sept. 3.-This has
been the most eventful day in the history of
Minneapolis. The announcement that Pres
ident Willard and his guests would stop in
Minneapolis on the way to witness the driv-
ing of the golden spike on the Northern Pa
citic, caused the citizens to stretch every
nerve to make the visit a memorable one.
The day dawned clear and nothing occurred
to mar the festivities For several DAYS
every one has been busy fashioning notices
and designs and executing novelties
in the way OF decoration and adornment.
When the hour of noon came all
business houses on the principal thorough
fares were layishly adorned with emblems
flags and notices 1t is estimated that fully
10000 visitors were in the city to-day At
100 carriages containing President Willard
and his guests were driven up to the Nicollet
House, preceded by company of mounted
police, and as the company Glighted they
We're greeted with prolonged cheers by the
thousands who occupied every inch of avaia-
BILE space in front of the stand and the win
dows of adjoining buildings. The appear
ance of President Arthur on the platform
was greeted with round after round of cheers
and when General Washourn stepped for
ward and introduced to the audience Robert
Lincoln the audience gave him a
greeting no less demonstrative than
that which followed the appearance of
Grant and Sheridan. A moment later
Mr. Willard appeared, which was the signal
for an outburst OF applause and cheering
that was renewed after the gentleman had
acknowledged, and the cheers were again
taken up when Mrs. Willard came forward
and took seat beside him. President Ar
thurs special train arrived from the West at
the same moment that Wizards train came
and he received Sheridan and Lincoln at the
depot.
At given signal the procession, which
had been waiting over one hour, passed the
grand stand. 1t required nearly four hours to
pass given point. In the line were fourteen
bands, fifteen companies of military, 1874 men
on horseback, e29 wagons, 2123 horses and
thousands of men engaged in the various
flour and lumber mills of the city. AT 4
O'Clock Mr. Willard and his guests were
driven to the Lyndale Hotel, on the banks of
Lake Calhoun, and banqueted, after which
they returned to the train and were taken to
the Lotel Lafayette, where they are ten
dered banquet, to night, by the city coun-
Gil of St. Paul.
