columns. But some OF the
notes and incidents Of the grand panora-
ma are given at random.
The passage Of thePresident on the ay-
enne was one continual ovation OF the
most enthusiastic aSind, The steady
tramp of the superbly drilled battalions
OF regulars under the command of Gen
eral Brooks, forming his escort; the sug-
gestive rumble OF the gun carriages aid
the soldierly bearing of the young cadets
all helped to keep the enthusiasm alive.
Every foot Of the'standing room along
the route of the procession, fully twenty.
seven miles in length, was occupied and
on every available point stands were
erected. Had the atmospheric conditions
been anything like favorable instead 81
being bad as they possibly could be there
would have perhaps been 100000 men
and women marching in the parade.
They were allthere waiting to fall in line,
but at the last moment some organiza-
tions were'compeled to desist from par
ticipating Notwithstanding every dis
advantage >of the weather, the military
and civic displays were never before
eqnaled, and for over five hoursPresideHt
Cleveland reviewed the parade nn6l
darkness cleared the streets.
With head erect and standing dlrmly,
with his impassive features facing the
procession, President Cleveland reviewed
the military, civic, and political organi
cations that made up the line of march.
The. FIRST popular outburst came when
Governor Robert E. Pattison, of Pennsyl-
vania, passed in front of the reviewing
stand, followed by his staff and National
Guard of the State OF Pennsylvania.
A loud huzza signalled the appearance
of a solderly-looking gentleman, who,
with his staff, headed the third brigade.
1t was General Fitzghugh Lee ex-gov-
ernor OF Virginia The Stewart Horse
Guards and the Ashby Light Horse Cav
airy acted as General Lees escort.
Men yelled themselves hoarse as Gov
ernor Flower and staff, of New York, hove
in sight, but the greatest enthusiasm Of
the nour was reserved for the Tanmany
Society, of New York. The magnificent
appearance OF this organization, 3 900
strong, thoroughly military in itsbearing
and discipline, provoked the admiration
even Of its opponents.
A mounted battalion Of exceedingly
good-looking young women headed the
, Cleveland and Stevenson club,of Mont
gomery County, Maryland.
There was fbut one civil delegation in
line that could claim the distinction of
having marched in an Inauguration pa
rade to the glory of a Republican Presi-
dent under Republican banner. This
was the John G. .'0'Brien Association, of
) New York. There were 20 ranks of lC
> men each. -Four years ago they marched
as Republicans at the Inauguration oi
MIR. Harrison. in the campaign of last
summer the organization "hopped' indi-
: vidually and as whole, and Saturday
they cheered Cleveland and Stevenson as
8 they did in 1889 ior Harrison aud Morton.
