A Splendid Train.
The train will be one of the best that
has ever been run out of Washington. 1t
will consist of the private car Wildwood"
which Is the car used by President Pullman
when his own car is in the shops. 1t conf
prises a very large state room, a dining
room and large compartment at the rear
suitable for observation and for making
speeches. 1t is expected. however, that no
speeches will be made from the train. The
dining room Of the car will not be used for
that purpose, as a dining car will be at
tached to the train at Greensboro, in time
for breakfast. The wildwood" will be for
the special use of the President. The other
partment car columbia" 1t contains
twelve state rooms which may be opened
into each other if desired. 1t is one of the
finest cars of the kind that has been made
by the Pullman Company. There will also
be a combined baggage and parlor car,
the composite part being used as smoker.
The dining room Of the "Wildwood" it Is
expected will be used as a sitting room.
The presidential train will be run as the
second section of the southwestern limited,
which leaves Washington at 10:43 tonight,
the presidential train leaving at II o'clock
and arriving at 3:55 pm. tomorrow. 1t
will be run on the schedule of the limited.
On the Southern railway the block system
is used and the trains must keep at least
one station behind each other, so there Is
no possibility Of an accident.
Program in Atlanta.
The party will reach Atlanta Tuesday
evening, and will be entertained by the
mayor of the city. The next day the party
will visit the exposition, and will be re-
ceived with elaborate ceremonies. An ad-
dress of welcome will be made by the presi-
dent Of the exposition, to which the Presi-
dent will make a brief response. 1t was
rrmored today that the President would
express some vigorous sentiments on the
principal issues of the day in his address,
but this is positively denied at the White
House, where it was stated that his re-
marks will be brief, and will have no politi-
cal significance.
Will Get Back Thursday Night.
The President will hold public reception
at Atlanta Wednesday evening. at the close
Of which-about midnight-the presidential
party will start on their return to this city,
