oil nd oh hn
the piercing shriekS of hundreds OF
steam whistles from steamboats, and
tugs on the river. Business houses and
private residences in the neighborhood
were decorated with bunting and every
window was filed with men and women.
The men added their voices to those OF
the cheering throng below, and hun
dreds of white handkerchiefs futtered
IN the hands of ladies. Governor Cleve-
land bowed his acknowledgment in re-
Spouse to the greeting accorded him
and looked upon the enthusiastic
thrOng with pleased smile.
His expression was one OF entire SELL
possession, satisfaction and quiet con-
tidence. The Governors carriage took
its place in the line, uniformed Organi-
cations assumed their positions, bands
struck up lively marching airs and the
procession moved toward the PierrepOnt
House through streets lined with
crowded and cheering spectators, and
beneath flags and banners swung IN the
breeze from houses along the route. As
cheer after cheer broke out and thou
sands of ladies at open windows waved
their handkerchiefS, the Governor re-
peatedly bowed on either side in re-
Spouse to hearty greetings. The plaza
surrounding the City Hall, was dcuscly
thrOnged and from the building itself
waved the national and State colors
in honor of the city'S guest. Governor
Cleveland was driven to the Pierrepont
House where a large number of people
awaited his arrival, among them many
of the most distinguished men of this
State. Rev. Henry Ward Beecher was
also present, and was heartily cheered.

Der of people introduced to him, the
Governor was escorted to the Art As
Sembly Rooms, connected with the
Academy of Music on Montague street
The building was handsomely decorated
with bunting and evergreens, and was
denSely thronged. The street without
was also crowded to its utmost capacity.
As the Governor appeared on the street, /
on his way to the academy, he was
again cheered by thousands of voices. !
On entering the building he was sur
rounded by those waiting there to greet

.ations counsel Taylor, Horace r. Den.-

did not permit it, and he was escorted
from the academy and once more took
his seat in his carriage. The Grand
Marshal, Major General John B. Wood
ward, gave the signal and the process
