CLEVELAND TO LEAVE BUZZiRD'S BAT

party, the President, is expected to arrive
from Loon Lake at Mott Haven at 7:3C
o'clock tomorrow morning. He will pro-
ceed Immediately to the country residence
of Whitelaw Reid, at Ophir Farm, -four
miles from White Plains. The President
will be accompanied by his secretaries, Mr..
Halford and Mr.. Tibbetts He will remain
with Mr. Reid just about "a hours, leaving
Ophir Farm, on his return trip to Loon
Lake, Thursday morning at 9 O'Clock.
The Presidents car is the Traveller, -
and an itinerary for his return trip has
been arranged with number of stopping
places, at most of which Nh. Harrison will
speak.
Probably the great event of the trip will
be at Herkimer, the home of ex-senator
Warner Miller. Mr.. Miller. with ex-Con-
gresham Henry G. Burleigh, left Quebec
tonight in time to receive the President
After breakfasting with Mr.. Reid to-mor-
row morning, the President will be at home
TO ;he Republican chieftains No formal
reception has been arranged No invita-
tions have been sent out Mr.. Reid, in ex-
planning this feature of the Presidents visit,
said tonight that the President had advised
him of his intention to come to Ophir Farm
only two or three days ago.
Too short Stay for Formality.
MI. Reid had then waited to ascertain
with certainty how long the President in
tended to remain. On Monday he found
that the President intended to stay but one
day. Under these circumstances it had
been thought best, if not absolutely neces-
ssry, to omit all thought of rendering a
formal reception to him. No invitations,
therefore, had been extended for any par
ticular form of entertainment
Mr.. Reid thought it altogether probable
that a number of gentlemen would>call DUR
ing the day, and added that those of his or
the Presidents friends who desired to pay
their respects to the President could be as
sured OF hospitable welcome.
The Presidents visit subordinated all
other matters at Hon. Thomas Henry Car
ter's National Headquarters to-day. Mr..
Carter, Treasurer Bliss, General Clarkson,
and others had a short conference in the
afternoon. Only routine affairs were dis
cussed. These gentlemen, together with
Hon. Sam Fessenden, Chairman Brookfeld,
Chairman Hackett, and several others, will
be among the Presidents callers at Mr..
Reid's home tomorrow. 1t is possible, also,
that ex-senator Thomas c. Platt will be
among the throng.
Virginia " ants a Little Help.
A delegation of Virginia Republicans
visited to-day at Mr.. Carter's bureau, All
Ga little -haIn'' this tall. would
tumble into the Republican column. Part
of the delegation returned to the Old
Dominion tonight, and part remained for
the purpose OF convincing Mr. Carter or the
sincerity of their enthusiasm. Mr.. Carter
will have more time at his disposal alter
his visit to Ophir Farm, tomorrow. Post
master w. w. johnson, of Baltimore, was
on hand, full OF the idea that MARYLAND was
to follow Virginia into the Republican
camp.
There were echoes of a disagreement
which occurred the day before between
Secretary Charles Foster, OF the Treasury
Department, aud j. c. L. Harris, Repub-
Harris has been Republican in that Demo-
cIatic State from boyhood, and when at
headquarters he outlined the plan of battle
to be made by the Republicans of the State.
1t did not include the running of Repub-
lican State ticket. This was to be lett to
the Peoples party, while the Republi-
cans and the Peoples party Joined hands
heartily In support OF the Republican
national ticket
No Ohio Interference Wanted.
Mr.. Harris was convinced that this
would be winning play, and that the State
would be handed over to Harrison and Reid.
Secretary Foster objected to Mr. Harris
views He plainly said so, and MI Harris,
failing to convince the Secretary of the
soundness of the proposition, informed the
Secretary that the Republicans of North
Carolina knew their own affairs quite as well
as any Ohioan, and furthermore, that thev
would not be dictate TO by the Secretary of
the Treasury.
Mr. Hahn returned to-day from Ohio and
sent to Maine ex-Congressman Ben Butter
worth, General George A. Sheridan and
Edward FItzwilliam. They are expected to
make the welkin ring and to get out every
Republican Tor the coming State election.
A telegram from Norwood, n. Y, saws:
President Harrison, en- route to New York
from Loon Lake, passed through this place
at S:15 o'clock tonight, and the citizens
turned out en- masse to greet him, hun
dreds assembling in less than an
hours notice. As the Pres dents
train pulled into the station it was
greeted witha display of fireworks, music
by the Norwood Band and shouts of well
come. The President APP cared on the
platform OF one of the cars and in response
TO the ovation expressed surprise
at the marked demonstration in his
honor, thanked the people for their hearty
welcome and begged to be excused from
making any extended remarks The crowd
excused him with a cheer, but insisted on
his shaking hands. The train pulled ont
amid hearty cheers.
A special from Cape May saws: Presi-
dent Harrison is expected here Friday to
visit Mr. and Mrs Russell Harrison at their
seashore cottage. He will probably come
after visiting Whitelaw Reid at Ophir
Farm
Cleveland Coming TO New York.
Chairman Frank Harrity's National
Democratic Committee to-day made known
that Mr.. Cleveland will leave Buz-
Yards Bay for good in the first
week of October, and will come to
New York. He will register
and vote in his assembly district, and will |
remain in the city from that time on until |
after election day. According to the pres |
ent programme he will not take the stump. |
He NAV be induced to speak in several of |
the larger cities of the State, but it is not |
now the plan to have him go beyond its |
borders
1t is proposed soon after Mr. Cleveland |
has returned to town to arrange for a recep- |
ton OF the Democratic leaders similar to |
that which has been arranged for President |
Harrison at Ophir Farm tomorrow.
