ment.1 go ~
All of them were filed to OVERLOOKING.
An enormous crowd, which taxed the
police to their utmost, was in the
streets, and from the windows above,
from out nearly every one of which
aoated the national coiors in one shape
or another. were thousands of specta-
tors who cheered and applauded the
troops as they marched below.
J. Thesprogramme at the monument was
completed shortly after three o'clock.
The parade and review followed. Troop
ers falling in line in Twelfth street at
the command Of Grand Marshal Gen.
Brooke, department of the Missouri,
marched north on Michigan avenue
past the reviewing stand. Over 10000
men were in line, headed by a squad of
police on foot. Survivors of Gen. Lo-
CAMS old regiment, Thirty-first Illinois
volunteers, led the van, proudly bear
ing the old regimental flags, tattered
and torn 200 confederate bullets.
Then came the grizzled veterans of
the G. A. r., with barred heads in honor
of their first and idolized commander
in chief. With the veterans marched ex-
confederates 200 strong. The appear
ance of the veterans of the gray was
touching tribute to many they met in
battle on the bloody field of Atlanta.
Behind the southerners marched with
easy swing 1850 regulars. The larg-
est number seen together in the west
since the civil war. Every branch of
the service was represented. including
eight troops of cavalry. Governors of
states with their stats followed, and
then; came the Illinois national guard,
1000 strong, under command of Gov.
Tanner as commander in chief. The
Knights Templar and Knights of
Pythias followed to the number of 500.
The rear was brought up by 1900 Chi
cago mail carriers and 5000 uniformed
detachments Of various civic societies
not bearing arms. The parade was over
two hours in passing the reviewing
stand.
Naval Review
The pageant on land was supple
mented by the finest marine display
ever seen on Lake Michigan. Grouped
around revenue cutters Gresham, Fes-
sender and Calumet, which anchored
just off the monument, were nearly 200
vessels, of the merchant marine and
private yachts, all gayly decorated for
the occasion.
/ At Night.
Shortly after eight o'clock Mrs. Lo-
gan and her party left the Auditorium
annex for the Coliseum. An immense
throng had gathered to witness the
Coliseum gardens fireworks, which
were on par with the lavish and beau
tiful display shown at intervals during
the worlds fair. At the conclusion Of
the spectacle the crowd turned into the
Coliseum, where, for over an hour, Mrs,

LOGAN: MONUMENT.

In front of the little hillock upon
whose summit stands the inspiring and
lifelike statue of Logan as he appeared
while rallying the broken ranks of the
Army of the Tennessee, 80 years ago
Thursday, was erected large stand
and. upon it was seated his wife, his
children, his grandchildren and his
brothers. In the absence of President
Mckinley, who was unavoidably de-
tanned in Washington, Secretary of War
Alger, represented the government.
Old friends and comrades of Logan
were there in profusion. Members of
his old regiment, members of the grand
army, and members of the Loyal Legion,
all gathered in great numbers to do him
honor.
The city has rarely been so profusely
decorated. It is not alone from public
buildings that bunting has been flung
to the breeze, but business houses and
private residences in every section of
the city have shared in the general dis
play.
