 The Democratic parade last night came off in fine style. For an hour or more before starting the procession Chapel street for a distance ot several blocks was densely lined with people, as were also the sidewalks of streets through which the procession was an nounced to pass. All along the line of march great interest prevailed and great enthusi- asm was manifested by the supporters of Cleveland and Hendricks. Long before the procession started red fire was burned plentifully on Chapel street as one and an other of the companies marched to the Green to take part in the parade. A large number of people came in from adjoining towns, in cluding about 400 from Bridgeport and as many more from Stratford and Milford on a special train. The Young Mems Democratic club of Bridgeport, a fine looking body, came on this train, bringing with them Da1ton's Flute band of Bridgeport. They were the guests of the Ingerson phalanx, which was headed by Colts band, of Hart ford
