that the review had begun. The monitor

the ships were ready.
Then the trim government yacht, weigh
ing anchor, accompanied by the steamer
Monmouth carrying members of Congress,
the coast survey steamer Blake having on
board the Diplomatic Corps, and the
steamer Edgerton bearing the Committee
of One Hundred, began to move slowly
upt the river between the lines of warships,
the United States ships on the port and
the foreign ships on the starboard side.
AS her bow came abreast the stern Of
each ship 81 guns were fired in honor of
the nations chief.
Having reached the head of the column.
the Dolphin anchored, and the officers Of
the men-of-war came aboard to be received
by the nations head.
This over the President left the Dolphin
and was landed at the foot of Goth street,
and as his foot touched the ground the en-
tire fleet simultaneously fired 81 guns.
The people on shore thought the previous
continuous explosions were deafening, but
when this final burst OF about 60, 900
pounds of powder occurred if it had not
been for the peculiar demonstration before
them they might have thought they had
suddenly been transferred to the Island of
Zante. Such terrific racket has never
before been heard here.
After this the excursion boats, tugs,
yachts, ETC., which had been anchored
along the Jersey shore, weighed anchor

in the rivers and in the harbor, from the
smallest of the putting tugboats to the i'm
mense liners, has flags flying from the
poles or masts Some have only one flag,
others have hundreds. 1t depends largely
upon the size of the boat.
The smaller craft, including the numer-
GUS ferryboats moving back and forth
constantly, have from one to three flags
displayed. The ferryboats have them out
on all poles and of themselves make the
rivers a mass of moving colors. Cutting
in and out among them are the steamships
and tugs, SO that no matter in what direc-
ton the eye happens to gaze, it is con-
fronted always by the fluttering flags.
The big liners tied up at the piers have
all their bunting out. 1t runs from the
stem, up over the tops of the masts, and
so down to the stern. 1t is the same with
the vessels at anchor in the harbor.
It is estimated that there are at least a
hundred thousand visitors in the city.

It is especially interesting to notice
that the largest percentage Of persons
hiring homes and 30 the smallest per-
centage of families owning homes is in
Hartford. There S0.07 hire and 1894

comes second. The largest percentage
of homes owned is in Greenwich, 49, SO.
Among those who own their homes
the largest percentage of mortgages is
in New Britain IS Oh, with Meriden
go. 80 second and Danbury SO IS, close
third. Next after that is Waterbury,
1874. There is nothing discouraging
about figures like these. The way to
own is to borrow, to buy, to pay.
Mortgages in manufacturing towns in
dictate that the mill people are buying
homes. 1t is curious to notice, how
ever, that Willimantic, also lively
manufacturing town, has with only one
exception (New London, 60.55), the
largest percentage of uumortgaged
homes, 58.43.
In the whole state together, farms and
town homes, there are 1855, 800 families
of which &c, 439 are on farms. OF these
1884 hire farms and 81 ,765 own farms,
OF the latter G, 766 are mortgaged.

GRESHAM BELIEVES EGAN.

He Says the Gillian Refugees Have Left
the United States Legation.
WASHINGTON, April 27.-The reported
belief of the Gillian authorities that Minis
ter Egan is still sheltering Blondlott
Holley and other refugees from CHILEAN
justice in the Legation of the United
States at Santiago is not shared in by
Secretary Gresham.
When he directed Minister Egan to
"cease sheltering" Holley and his compan-
ions, Mr.. Egan telegraphed the Depart
ment that the men had escaped from the
Legation, Holley succeeding in evading
the police, while his friend fell into their
hands
Mr.. Gresham says this information was
also received by the Gillian Legation in
Washington, and he therefore had no rea-
son to believe it is untrue.
