Cleveland and Colonel and Mrs. Lamont
arrived at the Baltimore u Ohio station at
7.2O O'Clock this evening. The crowd
present WAS rather small in numbers, and
consisted mainly of travellers awaiting the
making up of their trains. The President
made no attempt to avoid observation,
and walked through the station like any
other passenger would have done. The
party were all in the best of health, and
showed il in their manner and appearance.
The President seemed especially benefited
by his stay in the mountains, and that he had |
taken ample outdoor exercise was evil |
denced by the rosy flush of health on his |
cheeks. The ladies were also little sun |
burned. The party proceeded in couples |
to their carriages in waiting. There was
no particular demonstration ON the part |
of the people, except that they crowded /
as close as the police would permit in /
order to get good look at the Presidents
bride. Several gentlemen took off their
hats to the President, and he acknowl- |
edged the compliment by raising his
own hat. Some one started cheer
but the President had entered his
carriage and was driven away before it
could be generally taken up by the crowd.
The carriage drove rapidly to the White
House. There were about 100 people,
mostly ladies and newspaper men, on the
portico at the executive mansion awaiting
the Presidents return. The carriages
drove up to the main entrance, and the
party speedily alighted and entered the
house. Mrs. Cleveland jumped out
lightly and was on the portieo before the
others had left their seats in the carriage.
After dlyestiDg themselves of their wraps
and removing the stains of travel they sat
own 10 supper.
