CHICAGO, Oct. 21.-The quadricenten
nial anniversary day of Americas dis
covery was ushered in with the booming
of cannons, with the raising of flags and
with all the ceremony due the great day
1t is the second of Chicago's public holi
days and the climax of its weeks festivi-
ties. Never in the history of the Garden
City has SO great thropg been within its
boundaries, and never has it sheltered SO
vast host of prominent men, represent
ing every state in the Union, the nation
and every civilized country on the face OF
the globe. The civic parade of yesterday
pales into insignificance beside the great
pageant which is moving through the
great thoroughfares of the Worlds fair
buildings.
The one effort of the director-general
and his aides has been directed to lessen
ing the crowd which will throng into the
manufacturers building to listen to the
services. If two-thirds of the invitations
are accepted, there will be over 100000
there. To avoid this awful crush, all
those not using their invitations will be
given free admission on the opening day
in May.
The crowd has, however, been stream
ing to the ground since an early hour
this morning and as the train facilities
are announced to be but $500 an hour at
present, it will be seen that the visitors
will not all get there till very late in the
day.
The troops that are taking part in the
parade to-day have been quartered dur
ing the night in the Electricity building
and in the annex to the Transportation
building.
The military procession will form near
the Auditorium on Michigan avenue, and
