ceiving five dollars per diem, drew considerable
money for mileage, 1t is alleged that the TAX

The war-ShipS, OF course, were of
most interest to the sightseers AT I'M
tervals of $50 yards, in three columns,
500 feet apart, sailed, after the
antonomah, Philadelphia and L'Are-
thuse, nine other naval engines of war.
The United States steamers Atlanta
and Dolphin escorted the French gun
boat Hussard.
Slowly the ships moved by, passing
slowly up the North river past the
crowded docks and piers, flags flying
and the glistening sides rejecting the
suns light, making the occasion me-
morab one to those who witnessed it.
The escorting fleet brought up tho
rear 1t was in ten divisions.
A fitting climax to this most success
full pageant was the scene at the turn
ing point at Riverside. This was
natures own amphitheater. The slop-
ing hillsides gave every one an unin-
terrupted view of the display The
wealthy, whose costly equipages
blocked the carriage way, had no adj
vantage over the poorest citizen who
could Chamber up a hill or scramble
down the rocks to the waters edge, and
many thousands of them did SO. twas
nearly 5 D. IN. when the Philadelphia
proceeded by cloud of tugs and pleas
ure boats slowed down in front of Riv-
erside, with the foreign war ships and
the rest of the naval escort well in
line The tide was beginning to turn,
and the gaily bedecked vessels swung
around at will and indulged in all
kinds of naval ''horse play while wait
ing the appointed signal for the part
ing salute The three fire patrol boats
spouted geysers in the air and treated
the passengers on the upper deck of
the crowded excursion boats with
ilnpromtu shower baths with
the utmost impartiality. One of
the railroad ferry boats, its
decks SO blackened with passengers
that it looked like the old Merrimac,
gravely took advantage of this and
usurpcd the place of the Santa Isabel
amid derisive toots.
At $3.50 o. m. the naval vessel with
the president, Gov. Flower and other
distinguished guests turned the buoys
and passed the war ships on it's home
ward trip. Then the signal to salute
was given and the river rang with the
echoes of the guns reverberating
around the tomb of the silent Grant
A sight fully as interesting as that
of the vessels in line was presented by
the immense crowd of spectators on
shore. Every point of vantage, from
the waters edge to the top of the tall
est buildings, was occupied by people
who had waited for hours for the head
of the column of boats to appear
When the procession moved up the
river there were ten miles of humanity
on the shore. Our foreign visitors on
the men-of-war saw more people at one
time than they credited this country
with possessing From the battery to
Harlem was one mass of humanity.
The battery itself was a sea of heads,
those in the rear trying in vain
to peer over the thousands of those
in front. Every pier along the North
river was black with people, and the
windows, balconies and roofs of all
buildings that commanded view of
the river were crowded. Improvised
seats were arranged on roofs and peo.
