crowds of people had been drawn tt
witness the passage of the train
These cheered heartily, and the train
sped by. The great trestle at Catskil
was crossed at IL 20, and two minutes
later the train pulled up in front OF
the depot here. An enthusias.
tic crowd had congregated, many
having driven miles in order to see the
train pass through. AS the train hove
in sight, cannon stationed on the hill
opposite the depot doomed forth a
welcome; the villagers jostled each
other excitedly in their efforts to get
a glimpse OF Gov. Cleveland. On the
front of the depot they had nailed up
a large lithograph of the democratic
candidates. Gov. Cleveland appeared
on the platform and gracefully bowed
his acknowledgements to the crowd

Incidents of the journey.
Newburg was reacneu at 2:5O p. m
and the train pulled up in front OF the
station amid the booming of cannon
and the.screeching of whistles OF YES
sells in the harbor. There was an i'm
mense concourse of people in and
about the station, and before the train
came to stop, general rush was
made for the rear car upon the plat
form of which Gov. Cleveland stood
with uncovered head. Here, also
handshaking was continued as long as
the train remained, which was scarce
ly five minutes. The Governor was
repeatedly and enthusiastically cheer
ed. The demonstration, as whole,
was most impressive one.
AT the Highlands, where brief
stop was made, Mayor Haynes, and
Alderman O'Connor, of New York,
boarded the train.
Brief stops were also made at Corn
wall, West Point, Haverstraw and
Canston's. AT Haverstraw great pre-
para,ions had been made to receive the
governors train, and when it arrived
at 2:45, it seemed as though the whole
population of the place had turned out
The depot was fully decorated from
one end to the other with flags and
streamers, and Cleveland and Hen
bricks notices. at every point OF
vantage in the depot and surrounding
hills, ladies waived a welcome. Cannon
were fired in rapid succession, and men
shouted to the top of their lungs.
When the train came to stop a
crowd of fully a thousand people
surged around the platform of the
rear car, each apparently determined
to grasp the governors hand. CleVe-
land was introduced by Congressman
next president" Whereat the crowd
set up wild cheering. The governor
made no remarks at HaYrstraw. The
democratic club in uniform were also
in attendance, and the band accom-.
panying them played a lively air
adding to the din. The train re
mained there but five minutes and
moved out amid loud cheering.
