INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Nov. 23.-The
piesident-elect was this morning again
favored by half dozen visitors who
called at 7::30, before he had breakfast
ed. He had been up some little time,
however, and received the party. The
fact that Gen. Harrison has set aside
the hours from to 4 every afternoon
to receive his friends and others seems
to have been overlooked by anumber of
other callers. Among the prominent
visitors to-day were Congressman Houk,
OF Tennessee; Gov.-elect Hovey, Chair
man James n. Huston, Hon. John G.
New, w lillian Ii. Woods, of New York;
Charles Ii. Cramp and son, of Phil
adelphia, the well-known shipbuilders.
A bridal couple on their wedding tour
were among the callers early this after
noon. The groom bluShingly informed
the general that they were just ma. ried
and asked for his autograph, which the
general gave them. with his cordial con-
gratulations. The live eagle from
Southport, New York. sent by Mrs.
Wanamaker, of that place, arrived to-
day in large box and was carried into
the rear yard. Just what to do with
the bird of freedom the family are not
yet determined, but it will probably be
sent down to the New Denison hotel,
in the rear of which is Il large iron cage
containing the gigantic eagle captured
in Henry county, Indiana, and pre-
scented by the delegation during the
campaign to Chairman Huston.
Mrs. Harrison was to-day the re-
cipient of handsome silk slumber
robe, or crazy quilt, sent by the ladies
of the Episcopal church at Los Angeles,
Cal, it having been voted to Mrs. Har-
rison as the most popular lady, at a
church fair. Presents never seem to
come singly, for the general received
from Buffalo, n. Y, large substantial
easy chair, elegantly upholstered in
mahogany and cOlored plush. Another,
and perhaps more gratifying present
received by Gen. Harrison to-day was a
large folio of rich Turkey morocco, the
inner pages of which are lined with
blue satin, Oil which is stamped, in let
ters of gold, the following cOngratu-
latOry address:
