OF the 100000 Strangers Already
on Their Wsy Home and Others
Leaving Town by Every Train.
WASHINGTON, March 5.-The Georgia
Hussar5 leave for home tonight at IL
o'clock, and will probably arrive In Savsn-
nah at O'clock tomorrow night. The
men have spent the day quietly and pleas
antly taking in the sights and making
acquaintance with other crack commands
They have had a good time, bub will be
glad to get back to Savannah. The Hus-
sars feel amply repaid for their trip Gov.
Northen and Lieut.. Satterlse have lavished
praises upon them, and their handsome
uniforms have attracted attention every
where they went Many of the Hussars
called upon Gov. Northen, Congressman
Lester and other public men from Georgia
IN the city.
VISIT TO THE WHITE HOUSE.
A party composed Of Privates Fleming,
SchwarE and Gould, aud Mr.. Neeson and
Mr.. Beckwith, headed by Col. Ramon, pro-
prietor of the Oxford, visited the white
house, where they caught a glimpse Of MIR
and Mrs. Cleveland and Secretary Gresham
and had q pleasant interview with Private
Secretary Thurber. They also inspected
the beautiful eass room OF the white house,
which was privilege afforded to very few
to- day.
Secretary Hoke Smith, Senator and Mrs.
Gordon and Frank Gordon called upon the
Hussars at the Oxford to-day, supposinR
this to be their headquarters. They were
disappointed in not finding any Of the
troops present, but left their cards.
Gov. Northen and staff win make q cers-
monial call upon President Cleveland TO-
morrow morning. The governor and bis
party will return to Atlanta tomorrow
night.
THE CROWD LEAVING TOWN.
Half Of the 100000 Inauguration visitors
have gone home. and many of the rest are
going as fast as the ohoked-up railroads can
take them. The we're just as glad generally
to be obliged to remain here to-day, for the
weather was bright and braoing, and they
had an opportunity to see more OF the city
and its surroundings. Many Of them went
to church in the morning, for all the
churches were crowded then. but in the
afternoon even a Salvation Army meeting
in a theatsr was not interesting enough 20
draw many from Pennsylvania avenue At
night many of them went 20 the ''saored
concerts" and performances which did not
claim to be sacred.
CROWD AROUND THE WHITE HOUSE.
During the day there was q small CROWD
around the white house most OF the time
waiting apparently on the chance of see-
ing Mr.. and Mrs. Cleveland or the baby
which seemed 20 interest most OF
them as much as either Of the parents.
Those who happened to be there
approximately saw all three as
they came out for the air. Many thousand
will remain here until Tuesday night or
Wednesday, for the fireworks illuminations
Tomorrow night promise to be the finest
ever seen here and the promenade and dane
ing contests In the pension office tomorrow
and Tuesday afternoons and evenings.
Many hundreds will remain longer TO seek
offices which they will have difficulty in
finding readily. for President Cleveland
will go very slow in making appointments.
