dent Cleveland, Secretary Gresham and
Senator White spent very quiet day at
Nj. Bayard's home, DelamOre Place,
and save for a stroll this morning
around the grounds surrounding the
comfortable old homestead, they re-
mained indoors until 3:05 o'clock this
afternoon. At that hour they finished
their luncheon, and the family carry
all, or drag, was brought to the front
door. Mr.. Bayard and Secretary Gresh
am took the drivers seat, and the
former held the relns over the two
chestnut bays with docked tails. Presi-

six in addition to those on the drivers
seat. Mr.. Bayard at once touched the
horses with the whip, and the party
started in westerly direction for a

city. At Ninth and Market
streets the ambassador to England
pointed out his law office and
the old Bayard mansion, one square be-
yond Ninth and Shipley streets the
party viewed the federal building which
is now in course of erection. The drive
lasted just one hour aud half, and at 6

and no one was invited by Mr.. Bayard
to meet the president. 1t was expected
that the distinguished visitors would
attend services in Old SwedeS Protest
ant Episcopal church this morning. and
several thousand persons surged around
the gates of the old churchyard. None
of the Bayard family or their guests,
however. appeared. Old Swedes church
was built in 1893, and the Bayard family
are regular attendants. 1t is probably
the oldest church in use in this country.

by Mr.. Bayard. There were almost

with the president and his companions.

each of the party, asked them concern
