LOAF In THE STRETCH.
THIRTEENTH REGIMENT is TO BE
HURRIED UNTIL 1T APPROACHES
THE CITIES
IT WILL THEN BE HELD BACK

AS 1t Is Not Desired to Have the
Boys Home Too EARLY for the
Breakfast to BE rendered Them
at the AuditOrium-And This Is
Not the Work of "PopuIist Poll
\ticians," but of the Committee.
The details Of the welcome and re-
ception which ST. Paul will extend to
President Mckinley and his cabinet and
members Of the Thirteenth regiment on
Oct. u are practically complete with the
exception of few minor details. Until
the exact time Of arrival Of the regiment
can be learned it will be necessary to
hold the programme so far as it con-
Germs the volunteers open to change to
suit such conditions as may rise
1t Is definitely settled however, that
the president and, so far as is known,
every member of his cabinet will be in
st. Paul on the evening Of Oct II. A
special train carrying the presidential
party will pass through the city in the
morning without stopping. At 1880 in
the evening President Mckinley and the
members of his cabinet will arrive from
Minneapolis for the reception to be ten
dered here. At present it is thought that
the event will be held at the state capt.
toll, since there seems to be no other
available place. 1t will open at 8
o'clock and will continue until 1890. At
this hour the president and his party
will be taken to the union station, where
they will board a special over the East
ern Railway of Minnesota for Duluth,
arriving there early the next morning.
The special will run ahead Of the regu-
lar night Duluth passenger train for
Duluth and Superior.
The time of arrival of the Thirteenth
has not been ascertained exactly. The
regiment left San Francisco yesterday
and will spend day in Portland as
the guests of their friends, members
Of the Oregon regiment. AT Spokane a
two hours stop will be made for dinner,
after which the boys will be hurried
East as fast as possible. 1t is the in
tention of the railroad companies to has
ten the trip over the first half of the
route in order to have surplus time to
debit against any possible delay. AS
soon as the trains reach safe distance
from the cities they will proceed more
leisurely, arriving in st. Paul between
6 and 8 on the morning of Oct II.
The regiment will be marched to the
at once, WllGIc Oi6chlooI " III
be served. Gov. Lind and Senator Mel
son, with others, will address the boys,
and after the breakfast it is probable
that the regiment will form in front of
the building to give the ST. Paul people
chance to meet them and extend a
personal welcome. The regiment viii
again board the special, arriving in Min
neapolis at II a. m. There are many
minor details of the entertainment in
st. Paul which will not be decided until
the exact time of the arrival is ascer-
1 tanned.
/ ST. Pauls reception to the president
and the volunteers will be simple and
free from elaborate efforts at display.
The breakfast to the Thirteenth m the
Auditorium will be an event to which
the public will be welcome, the galleries
being thrown open The main floor will
be reserved for the regiment, but the
rest of the building will be free of ad-
mission to all without cards or invitation.
The presidents reception will be SINH
lar affair No invitations will be is
sued, but the general understanding is
that every citizen is placed on the same
footing and will be made cordially well
