move, too, and the crowd Surseu D"ck
and forth with every impulse like z
wave. EtEs %atef, the thEohs me haa
side, sIs'I md nd from rom either side thousands
more were trying to pour in. The effect
was curious and disastrous to those al
ready in. The pressure from both sides
was irresistible. In front q ilne oil police
men was drawn to keep the crowd from
overwhelming the musicians, Ihey
braced their ieet III front ana WIN tleiF
broad backs tried to dam up the human
tide behind. Sometimes they succeeded
and sometimes they didn't. When they
did people IN the crowd were crushed
till they cried out with PAIN anu terror
When the police llnc weakened an IN
slant at any point the people IN the
front line would be hurried ShFouS@ we
gap us though from cataPuIt, ana only,
the hurrying up Of reIniorcenenls oi
police to wherever the break came could
keep the line intact and save the musl'
clans from being trampled on.
After speech by Governor FORAKER,
who was interrupted constantly by crles
for blaine Blame" tue great states
man stepped forward.
BLAiSE'S WELCOME.
When the first roar was over Foraker
stepped back, motioning to the crowd an
presentation, and Mr.. Blaine
stepped to the front, lifted his low
brown derby hat and waited. II
was quite long wait, Tor the crowd
heartily. Yet o warmer, more
greeting from such au
audience could easily have been lm'
agined. The crowd was very glad IN
deed to see Mr. Blaine, but 1t did not 90
crazy over him. Hats went no higher
than hands could hold them, ana there
was more good humor than frenzy about
the demonstration; However, the APP
piause OF such gathering could hot hesP
bubble u grand ovation, ana MIR. Blaine
evidently appreciated It.
He seemed all ready to speak, and the
crowd was comparatively quiet, when
he seemed struck by sudden thought
threw up his, hands, Hung back hlS over
coat, slipped it oil, tossed 1t behind nm,
and once more faced the audience, ready
to speak. The characteristic action set
the crowd oil again, aud 1t was some
time before he could begin
