Major Stone and a number of other well
known military men. The general ap-
pearance of the troops was commanding.

arrived and were held in waiting orders,
while getting a thorough wetting. The
vicinity Of the reviewing stand at the
Worth monument was crowded with spec
tators with umbrellas hoisted. The rain
having somewhat moderated definite
orders were issued for a review. Not
withstanding the rain, both sides of the
streets through which the procession
passed were thickly lined with men and
woman who stood until all the regiments
had passed For an hour before the
time appointed for the march of the
column the vicinity of the grand stand
was packed with people. Ii was ten
minutes past 4 when the Governor, in an
open barouche drawn by four white horses,
reached the stand. He was accompanied
by General Farnsworth in full uniform.
The stand was comfortably filed. The
Governor was surrounded by his staff
during the review. He stood from 4:l5
until $40 p. m. without an umbrella, in
the rain, lifting his soaked hat in response
to salutes and again as the colors of the
respective regiments passed. After the
column passed a deafening volley of cheers
was given for Governor Cleveland and he
returned to the Hoffman House.
Governor Cleveland and his staff were
entertained after the review by Major
General Shaler and staff in the Hoffman
House. The Governor left the hotel in
time to take the train for Albany, leaving
the Grand Central depot at 9 p. m.
