Yesterdays Democratic afternoon papers, printed
before the Cleveland parade started, estimated
that there were from 10000 TO $4,000 In lima

estimate. less than 10000 cr not one-fourth OF
the number which the orginatOrs of the parade, in
their swelling ambition, predicted Many old
soldiers said that this estimate was at least 1000
too high. and that there were less than 5000
men in line yesterday.
