rear. The trees in the great lawns were u
filled and the roofs of SURROUND log a
dwellings were covered. On the roof OF r
the capitol some 200 men and boys had I
congregated. In approaching the ave- \
nues and streets the military companies b
and civil organizations were massed, L
forming brilliant vistas as far as the '

enterprising photographers had placed q

the stand and sea of faces |
and hats that moved continually like I
the waves of the ocean. This immense |
throng was variously estimated as to !
number. I
President Arthur subsequently said it
was "simply immense; the greatest
crswd ever saw"
Senator Hawley, as he looked at It,
said he thought it numbered 10000 peo-
pie.
While waiting for the arrival OF the
president-elect, some ons would occa-
sionally venture to the front of the plat
form. His presence was the signal for
repeated cheers.

cessiOn appeared, coming out of the
main east door OF the capitol
President Arthur stepped TO the front
of the platform, followed by the presi
dent-elect, Chief Justice Waite and the
sergeant-at-a Of the senate. All UNI
