BosToS, MASS, August 27,-AII Bos'
ton iI tonight discussing tho greatest
gala day the city has ever seOn. For
more than five hours the principal ave.
nues were occupied by plumed Knights
Tsmplar, aud hundreds Of thousands
OF spectators obligingly crowded on the
sidewalks to give them room, but now
the populacs is thronging in triumph
over tho paEsmenls Whicn this alter
noon re.schosd the marching feet, aad
the sight iS almost as wonderful Us the
pageant was. II was nearly 6 o'clock
when tho last commandory broke rankI
at the foot OF Washington stroot and
the traffic entirely resumed. All the
afternoon the street car system was Al.
most entirely suspended, even IN the
streets through which tho parade did
not pass. When cars did start up,
thoro was the greatest rush even seen
in Boston,
Tho day was a [ne one. Somewhat
cloudy ut frat, tho sun came out bright
ly in the afternoon, but at no time WAS
the heat great enough TO cause much
discomfort, and everyone seemed to en-
Joy himself, from the grinning urchln
who had climbed an electric light pole
to the proud bearer OF the hRndsomest
beauzant in the line.
An IMMENSE CROWD.
There wero none too many grand
stands 10 accommodate tho immense
throng that clamored for seats, although
almost every foot OF available space
along the line OF march had been GOV.
cred with platforms aud Isats.
Every inch oil space was occupied,
and there was hardly breathing room.
Both incoming and outgoing local
trains were practically deserted during
the afternoon, but a. soon as the parade
was over thOTs was stampede for tho
depotS, and the early evening trains
we're crowded to sulocation. This great
exodus, however, seemed TO make no
apprecisble difference in the sizo OF tho
crowd, which still continued to ill
every thoroughfare.
The knights presented a splendid ap.
pearancs on parade, and with very iow
exceptions completed tho entire limo OF
march. AZ they passed the reviewing
stands before Grand Commander Nc.
Curdy and Governor Gresuhalge and
later before Chief Marshal Lawrence
and Mayor Curtin, many Of them exc.
cuted intricate military evolutions
which won the admiration OF the thouS.
andS who witnessed them. These tao.
tics were also introduced by the more
proficient Commanderies at intervals
along the line Of march. Great Rdmira.
tion was expressed at the appearance
OF the California and other western
delegations.
Ths evening has been given up BY
tho Knights TO general norry.making.
There are banQuGts and receptions "a.
lore. and n! every headquarters open
house 10 in order, The conclavo was
officially opened by exercises in Masonic
Temple Immediately after tho close oi
the parade.
Tomorrow tho serious business OF the
conclaye will be III order.
It was shortly after $3.50 this evening
when tho conclavO was officially opened
aI Masonic Temple.
No business was transacted further
than to declare the conclavO open.
