day for the parade, nd tie reviewing
stand having been er ected at Madison
Square, on Fifth Avenue, it vas tonight
fully occupied and the parade took place,
There IS little doubt, how ever, but that an.
other demonstration will be keld to-mor--
row night, when Blaine W i'll be here
The absence of Blaine did not percepti-
bly, affect the number of parada-s, nor did
the enthusiasm of the long lineof march
seemi in any way dampened.
a feature of the parade was theunanim-
ity with, which the national colors were
displayed. Flags, badges, banners, hat
bands, and IN many cases neckties were
made conspicuous by the predomiaance of
the red, white and blue.
AL along the line, from its place of form
alton near Central Park to Twenty-third
street, where the majority of the oTganiza-
tions dis5snded, crowds thronged the side
walks stoops and windows and other
points of vantage.
Another feature of the processiol-and
one which attracted the greatest interest
was the Ironworkers' Protection Clubs fol-
lowed by blacksmith shop on wagon.
with men at work in their leather aprons,
and making sparks fly from bars of red-hot
iron.
Among those in the stand was Co,onel f.
ShatfeT, who resembles Blaine so closely
that many nlistook him for the Plumed
Knight. Jerome Deacy, of California, was
also among many prominent Republicans
there.
The procession was headed by a squad of
mounted policemen, and the favorite or
picturesque organizations were cheered
As they passed, Chairman Quay nodded
approval to the full ranks OF Republican
Invincibles
The Philadelphia and Chicago Blaine
clubs of aolid-looking men were cheered as
they passed, as was the Kansas CITY Blaine
Club, which was followed by the field
piece 'Oid Abe, drawn by coated men.
One of the pfettiest sights of the evening
was the baseball nines-boys in extremely
pretty white uniforms trimmed with scar
let. They carried small bats on their
shoulders, and looked like eighteen guaran-
teed mascots. An admirer on the stand
assured them that they would knock outa
home-run for Harrison.
Great enthusiasm was aroused by the Irish
American Anti-Free Trade Organization,
which showed a handsome green banner
trimmed with gold, Among the mcttoes
carried by the members were
We fed from free trade at home, and
we won't have it here"
Morton gave $4,000 for the Irish.
Cleveland gave nothing"
The Twenty-frst Assembly District had
one blaek-edge transparency bearing the.
words, " We mourn our loss-Phil 8heri-
dan"
Blaine name was heard every moment
reiterated in cheers that late in the night
and toward early morning echoed as, the
organizations marched to the ferries. 1t
was essentially grand Republican demon
stration, with the magnetism of James G..
Blaine sending shock of enthusiasm all
along the lines.
