Cleveland, Ohio. August 27.--President
Mckinley surprised the people OF Cleveland
by his early arrival from Buffalo this
morning. He became the guest OF the peo-
pie OF this city this morning and will re-
main such until next Wednesday. The re.
ception OF the president was not as elab.
crate as had been planned. The comanche.
which brought the presidential party from
Buffalo, arrived inside the Cleveland har-
Dor at 2:SO o'clock. There she lay at an
Choir until o'clock. when she steamed into
the inner harbor and made fast at the dock
OF the Pennsylvania company.

Deen made for the reception OF the presl-
dent and said he had advised against II

no certainty of the hour OF their arrival.
lie asked that the naval reserve and the
IippecaToe club be notified of the arrival
OF the Comanche and invited the news
paper men aboard the yacht. The bitterest
disappointment prevails over the surrepti-
tious manner in which the president and
Senator Hanna entered Cleveland. The
Iippecanoe club and the naval reserves had
f'te't'SN @ iiioSi tl6uQTdlt reception ana
the people were gathering in numbers to
go to the boat landing. II fell as a dis
tinct shock to all of them to learn that
the president had arrived two hours earlier
and was already at Windemere.
PRESIDENT Mckinley was unusually pleas
ant in his demeanor. He talked volubly
of his trip from Buffalo, of the Grand Army
OF the Republic encampment, which he
pronounced TO be- the greatest in history.
and spoke In the highest terms OF the
manner In which the people OF Buffalo had
handled the encampment. He was asked
MS Impression concerning prosperity as
gathered from his trip across the country.
GU had better ask business men about
that he replied; they can give you bet
ter information than can"
OF his plans for the next week the pres
ident spoke quite freely. His stay in
Cleveland. he said, would be quiet one
with rest as the principal thing to be
sought. Wednesday of next week, prob
ably in the morning, the presidential party
will leave for Fremont, Ohio, where they
vii. attend the Hayes-Smiih wedding In
tho evening, The following day the pres
ident win attend the reunion of his ok.
regiment. Friday he will attend the State
fair at Columbus. The presidents mother
will not visit Cleveland during the stay Of
her son, but the latter will make a short
trip to Canton after his trip to Columbus
The president will probably spend Saturday
and Sunday with his mother before return
ing to Washington.

manche were President and Mrs. McKin-
ley. Secretary and Mrs. Alger. Miss Alger.
