ELIZABETH y. j., April 29.-The train drew
up at Elizabeth at o'clock. in the midst of
coneourse of people that filed the station pla.-
form and the space adjoining. They were, of
course, anxious for glance at the chief magis-
trate, but seemd to realize the probability that
he had not vet awakened, and no noise was
made. While the train halted at Trenton the
private car of Gen. Sewell, vice-presdent of the
West Jersey railroad, carrying the official party
OF the state and guests was attached and the
train then started for Elizabeth. The party on
the train consisted of the following persons:
Gov. Green, Gen. Sewell, Gen. StTyker mem
bers of the New Jersey centennial committees
the Rev. Dr. Hamill, Col. Stockton, Mr. Green,
Gen. Grub, Col. Donneily, Capt Skirm, the
legislative committee; Senator Crammer, Col
Chambers, Mrs. Sewell Mrs. Stryker, Mrs.
Barnard, Mrs. Lee, Miss Sewell Miss Warren
Miss Sarah Sewell, Miss Heyl, Robert Sewell
W. j. Seweli, IT., Senator COttell, and Mr..
Beatle.
They were at once taken to President Harri-
sons car but he was not mp yet, and they re-
tired 10 Private Secy HalfOrds car, the next
IN front 10 await his arising. The unavoidable
noise awakened the occupants of the presi-

On the run 10 Elizabeth there was no in
cident of note. unless the congregation of
crowds at the several stations 10 look at the
train as u moved along may be so considered.
There was a decided break in the arrangements

while on the other side OF the road was drawn
up corps OF continental cadets. Before the
party reached Elizabeth President Harrison

New Jersey, general committee. The train
stopped at the depot, where about one thousand

fast.
AS President Harrison appeared. escorted by
the governor, he was at once recognized, and a
hearty cheer went up from the thrOng. The
breakfast party from the train was to consist OF
President Harrison, Mrs. Harrison, Mrs. Nc
Kee and Chief Justice and Mrs. Fuller but in
the hustle and confusion incident to the occa-
sion the chief justice and his wife, who were in
the car England, in the middle of the train,
were overlooked by the committee and the
party drove of without them. 1t was well
known that the chief justice was to have
been az the breakfast and his presence
on the train after the president
and governor had driven off naturally
provoked considerable lively comment. No
explanation was offered however and after
sitting in his seat while the train shifted TO the
tracks of the New Jersey Central, the chief
Justice concluded that the best thing for him to
do was to accept the bountiful hospitality of
the railroad company and get his breakfast in
