league men raised up on their toes at
this proposition and demanded that
every precinct be given chance at
an election. Their club had
sent in communication accom-

that the ward bosses and heelers are

Already Arriving--The Cities
Rapidly Filling Up With
Visitors.
VETERANS BY HUNDREDS
A HALF MILLION PEOPLE
Are Expected to Witness the
Mammoth Parade Of
Tuesday.

PITTsBURG, Sept. S.-Pittsburg and
fiuttering, patriotic colors today. A
heavy rain storm last night did cunsid
cradle damage 10 the decorations. To-
day the sun shone brilliantly. and the
prospects are for bright weather during
the whole OF the q. A Il. encampment
week. AS IA result the damaged decora-
tionS are being torn down ANA replaced
by new material. and in many cases
more gorgeous and costly designs are
substituted.
The streets are rapidly filling up with
visitors, and the modest blue uniform
OF the GA. K. is very much in evidence.
Every train coming into the city adds TO
the Influx, the early arrivals consisting
mainly OF veterans with their families.
Tonight several organizations of naval
veterans arrived. They will be quar-
tered on steamboats, on the Mononga-
hela river, and will live during their
stay here i'll the same manner, so far as
possible. as they did when seeing
active service of some beleaguered
Atlantic coast city. Arrangements
have been made to entertain 1000 of
these ancient mariners. Tomorrow big
crowds are expected, and Monday the
visitors will come by tens of thousands.
The early trains of Tuesday will bring
enormous throngS from the nearer cities
and towns. The police are closely scru.
tiniZing every arrival, and fakirs and
crooks are given their choice of taking
the next tram out of town or going to
the workhouse. Tomorrow the local
police will lie assisted by large force
of out-of-towu detectives, representing
almost every prominent city i'll the
country.
At least half the churches i'm the two
cities will be gwen up tomorrow to the
veterans. Army chaplains will OCCUPY
number Of the pulpits, and the local
pastors have generally selected subjects
likely 10 be of interest to the old soldiers.
Preparations are being made for the
big parade on Tuesday. Iron posts are
being set up at the curb all aiung the
route, and wire rope will be stretched
along 10 keep the crowds off the road
way. The mayors of the two cities have
issued a proclamation to the citizens
asking that Tuesday be observed as
holiday in all the manufacturing plants.
This request will be generally obeyed,
and 1t is estimated that at least half
million persons will see the parade. To
afford early relief 10 veterans who may
be overcome by sickness or fatigue dur
ing the march, or spectators who may
be injured in the crowd, temporary hos
pitals, with physicians and trained as
slStants. have been established along
the route. in charge of the surgeons of

There is no lack OF funds for the suit

and their friends. 4 sum of Sl25,UG0
has been raised for the purpose. OF
this. $4,000 was subscribed by citizens;
$4,000 was appropriated by the cities of

so far as the Fourth, Fifth and Eighth
wards are concerned. This will be
especially regarded as turning down of
the Eighth ward league club, which
wants precinct primaries all over the
county, and especially in Its ward. 1t
is probable that the convention to nom.

for Sept. %. The basis Of representation
