Naval Veterans to the Number of 1000
Paraded. Visiting Ladies' We're "Re-
ceived" and Many Reunions Held.
STREETS ALMOST BLOCKED
Sidewalks Inadequate to Accom-
mOdate the Crowds of People.
Annual Grand Parade to Take Place To-
Day-The Contest for the Office of
Commander-in-C Chief of the Order.

PITTSBURG. Sept. 1o.-The first day of
the twenty-eighth National Encampment.
c. A r., has closed. and nothing but the
best can be said of it. The weather has
been superb, the crowds large and no acci-
dents have happened TO mar the day.
The marching event Of the day was the
parade of the naval veterans, who went
over the rather long route with precision
and excellence of drill that called forth
the heartiest cheers from the spectators
The veterans numbered one thousand, and
were led by Rear Admiral Osbon.
In the afternoon the ladies OF the G. A.
r. and Womans Relief Corps were taken
through the city and suburbs in carriages,
following which a reception was held at the
Monongahela House.
The social event of the day was a recep-
ton by Mrs. George Westinghouse at her
suburban residence, Solitude" given to the
visiting ladies. Some of the guests who
have attended similar affairs on many oc-
casions pronounce this the most gorgeous
they ever witnessed. The floral decorations
were the finest ever seen in this city. Henry
Watterson, Ex-Governor Beaver and AL OF
the prominent national officers of the q. A
X. were present.
Many reunions were held during the day
and evening by members of different regi-
ments. and many were the "reminiscences
exchanged.
Tonight the sidewalks are inadequate to
accommodate the crowds that throng them.
and the roadways are used along the main
streets Street cars, and vehicles are almost
blockaded. Taken altogether, Pietsburg has
never before enjoyed such scene of ami
nation. Innumerable bands are marching
through the downtown streets serenading
the newspapers ard prominent people.
One OF the features of the first day or
the encampment was the performance OF
Fred n. Innes's new composition of War
and Peace at the Exposition, tonight, and
his musical spectacle, dedicated to the en-
campment, was given by the Thirteenth
Regiment Band, of New York, a grand
chorus of four hundred local singers,
company from the Pennsylvania National
Guard. Ransom Post. NO. Se0 @. A. r.. OF
ST. Louis and battery of artillery, all un-
der the direction OF the composer. There
were about 1900 people present, including
Commander-in-chief J. @. B. Adams and
staff and others of note.
