GENERAL CURTIS INJURED.
The first thing to mar the proceed
ings of the morning was a serious ac--
cident to General Curtis, me of the po-
lice commissioners, of Buffalo. He was
riding with the police commissioners
Of this city and-of other cities, who
were on the staff of the chief in charge
Of the police that headed the process
sion. His horse slipped and fell, and in
the fall the animal fell on General Cur
tbs in such a way as to injure his spine.
1t was at first thought that he would
not recover. but later in the day his
condition was improved. Still it is be-
lieVed that General Curtis is crippled
for life.
Previous to the parade there were
many reunions today and some bust
ness sessions. including the ladies of
the G. A. r., and the Woman's Relief
Corps.
