AN GAME.

That crack amateur team, the Will
Gutmans, will meet the Wheeling IN
terstate League club this afternoon
at the Island park, and a great
game is promised. The Gutmans made
a great record in their playing this sea-
son and will doubtless make a good
showing against the uniformists. The
game will be called at $3.50. The ad-
mission is 25 cents, ladies free, and it is
safe to predict a big crowd of fans"
The teams will line up as follows:
Gutmans-Farrel, catcher; Neon
key, pitcher; Hebrank, first base; Dun
lap, second base; Gillegan, shortstop;
Buchannon, third base: MetZger, left
field; Wells, centre field; H~elmbright,

Wheeling-Dobbs, centre field; Niles,
third base; Donahue, catcher; Lyons,
second base; Turner, first base; Lyle,

4 NEW YORK, September 29.-The throngs
scattered in Battery Park surged toward
the sea wall to-day when it was announced
that the Olympia was in sight with Admir-
al Dewey On board.
From this time on the excitement of the
crowds increased, and when the guns of
the Olympia began to answer salutes from
Castle William and Bedloe's Island, the
shouting and general uproar at the Bat
terry defed description.
The multitude that gathered on River
side Drive was in itself a sight that words
can hardly picture, and to those who did
not see it, description can convey only a
bare suggestion. From every direction
and from all points, north, east and south,
the way was steadily westward, and the
great sea of people that had gathered in
the morning was swelled at noon by
streams of people that flowed steadily
through every street and thoroughfare
which had an outlet on the river front.
The natural aspect of the landscape was
almost blotted out, and from Seventy-sec-
ond street upward, a great wall of human
beings lined the shore, 50 densely packed,
that a stand having once been taken, no
person could move TO right or left. 1t was
nearly impossible TO bulge, and arms were
p~inioned to sides, feet seemed rooted in
the soil and the free action of any individ-
ual person was practically impossible. 1t
was a case of move with the crowd or
move. not at ali in this section of the city.
The houses on the drive were ablaze with
color and above many of them long
steamers of red, white and blue foated
from tall flag poles. Many of the houses
were decorated deliberately, and in this sec
ton each householder seemed 10 have We'd
with his neighbor in the attempt to make
a brilliant demonstration. The name Of
Dewey was embroidered in many of the
large flags which covered the fronts of the
houses and sentimental phrases Of adj
miration for the admiral were freely exh.b-
tied on the houses.
Hour after hour the crowds waited pa
tiently. uncomplainingly. The country
cousins of Father Knickerbocker who Wis
tied New York for the first time spent a
portion of the idle hours inspecting the
wonders of Grant monument. Next to the
Olympia and the great admiral himself.
this seemed to be the chief point of inter-
est for persons from outside New York
City.
Perhaps, taken all in all, the be-. land
view of the parade was obtained from the
Riverside Drive and from the Grant mon
ument. The time consumed in rounding
the stake boat. the ST. Marys, gave per
sons in this section of the city ample time
to view the wo-rld-renowned white squad
ron. and TO catch occasional glimpses of
the admiral and other officers on the deck
of the Olympia.
When the guns of the Olympia Numbered

Hugh Arnold received a letter yester-
day from Oscar Gardner, in which the
Omaha Kid" states that he was ill
when he fought Hamilton. Arnold
thinks he must have been very sick or
he would not complain of it. All ac-
counts agree that he did not fight in
his usual form, which fact is explained
by his illness. Gardner states that his
condition made it necessary for him to
declare off his bout with MeCue.
Gardner is matched to meet Ben Jor-
dan, of England, next month. He
states that he will leave New York for
home to-day. He will probably not ar
rive until tomorrow. Arnold will
train Gardner for his bout with Jordan,
and the kid" will try to enter the
ring in proper shape. Gardner has
also been matched in Kansas City next
month, and Arnold will accompany him
to that place.

stands, tiers upon tiers of seats like
an immense theater whose roof was
the sky, whose walls were the sur
rounding hills and whose back drop
was the horizon of the lower bay. AS
the pageant moved majestically into
the Hudson, it was seen that the crowd
still lined the water front and house
tops, thicker if possible, than ever,
and stretching up the river along the
whole line of parade. The heights OF
the Jersey side were also crowned with
parti-colored masses of people.
Up the Hudson pademonium reigned
supreme. Aerial bombs broke at in
tervals overhead in Duffs of white
smoke and a feathery canopy of steam
hung over the advancing fleet as humid
reds of steam whistles screamed con
tinually. The narrowing throat of the
river crowded the advancing vessels
together in an almost compact mass.
The broad narrow formation still drove
the head of the column forward unmo-
Tested through the ranks of the waiting
vessels.
From the time the British yacht Erin
started she certainly was the chief at
traction along the river front after the
Olympia had gone by, and Sir Thomas
Upton was accorded an ovation along
the line.
To those on board the Erin, decked
out as he was with flags of all deScrip-
tions, it looked as If the American peo-
pie were greatly pleased with Sir
Thomas and we're delighted with an OPP
portunity to give him a hearty wei
come.
After the signal for the start was
give the Corsair led, followed by a
magnificent
STRING OF STEAM YACHTS,
smothered in flags in two long lines. The
Erin headed the starboard column with
Col. John Jacob Astor's Nuermahal right
astern, while the Niagara with Howard
Gould on board, headed the port column
with the new Josephine of Mr.. Joseph n.
Widener right behind her.
The Erin was continually saluted on the
way up and the man on the afterdeck be-
side the flag staff which carried the big
yacht pennant was continually dipping it
in return.
1t took nearly an hour for the head of
the yacht fleet to reach the turning point
off Fort Lee, but the Corsair finally swung
around and headed down toward the Olym-
pia. At the same time, half a hundred
excursion boats, Tugs and launches which
had been waiting up the river, Joined in so
tina a solid column came sweeping Down
On Admiral Dewey.
The Erin was in the center of this mass
of boats, and the formation of the yacht
club fleet was at once lost. The great
mass swept by the Olympia by the five
and six abreast, but fortunately the course
was comparatively clear when she went
by, and the Admiral was easily recognized,
waving his hat frantically at Sir Thomas,
as he stood on the after bridge. The crew
of the Olympia also recognized the Erin,
and gave her a tremendous cheer, which
was returned by the entire ompany on
board the Irish yacht, while the big fleet
of excursion steamers and the two or
three hundred thousand people on shore
Joined in the chorus.
Erin ran down the river until she reach
ed Hoboken, where she took up her posi-
ton to participate in the illumination this
evening.
