CHICAGO, June 6.-Eulalia, the modest
little princess OF spalns royal house, is
in Chicago, She came to-day and thou
sands of people from every state in the
union and almost every country on the
face Of the earth were at the train eager
to see and welcome her A modest,
dark haired little woman Of flesh and
blood; human being like Themselves
was what the crowd saw. The inianta,
as the princess ia commonly called,
came into the city on special train
over the Pennsylvania railway and dis
embarked at the union depot in Canal
street,
A little group headed by Mayor Har-
rison stepped to the rear platform OF
the last car. pretty woman modostly
dressed stepped out OH the platform
and smiled Then came cheers The
crowd beyond the railings caught the
hurrah and like lighted train OF gum
powder it shot up into the street and
the tug bouts in the river caught the iu-
fection and added their high pressure
voices to the welcome. Every man in
the depot removed his hat and there
was q little furry in the party around
the steps Tho mayor stepped forward
and the princess extended her hand,
and Mr.. Harrison bonding over, aud
like a true kentucky gentleman,
kissed it.
In rapid succession the others were
introduced, the spaniards bending low
and kissing tho royal hand and the
Americans greeting her as Americans
usually greet woman.
The prince Antonio, husband OF the
princess, the duke OF ramames, and the
rest Of her suit followed the 4nilnta
from the train, and the infanta adopted
the American manner Of shaking hands.
The mayor offered her his arm aud pRsi-
ing through the lines OF aldermen and
city officials, conducted her up the
carpetod stairs to the carriage in wait-
ing, cheers marking every step.
Mrs. Palmer's handsome carriage was
in waiting. As the princess emerged
from the depot the ringing notes OF
buVle were heard, followed by the
clank Of swords, and troops d and X Of
the famous Seventh cavalry, COM
manded by Major Baldwin, stood at
Attention" The long line Of yellow
plumed horsemen extended for block.
Again the bugle sounded and the fash
ing swords came TO present These
movements caught the lady's eye. and
| she glanced up and down the line before
entering the carriage. 1t took but q
moment for Mr.. Harrison to hand the
lady to her carriage, aud, led by the
| military escort, II was followed by the
other carriages containing the infanta'a
suite the reception committee, and
city officials.
Eulalie then started for the Palmer
House. which for the time being is at
her disposal. The Duke OF VeraRuaand
party, with Commander Dickens, were
caught by an intervening crowd, and
after the royal party had gone took
carriages for the Auditorium, for the
infanta was to grant the duke private
audience later in the day. There was q
remarkable scene Mt the Palmer House
when the two troops of yellow-plumed
regulars appeared opposite the ladies'
entrance, escorting the princess's car
riugo, in which she rode with her hus-
band, Prince Antonio, while Mayor
Harrison occupied the front seat. AS
far as the eye could reach east and west
thero was mighty large crowd. The
portico of the hotel was decorated with
the Spanish und American colors, aud
thick red Brussels carpet extended to
tho edge OF tho sidewalk, AS the
princess alighted and once moro placed
her arm In that Of the mayor the crowd
looked its admiration and u low faint
cheers broke forth.
