toed.
His departure, with the cheers of an
immense throng ringing in his ears
brought to close a day of genuinely
hard work, in which the president had
scarcely a moment of leisure for him
self. The crowds which greeted him
at every turn were so good natured
and so disposed to cheer that the pres
ident, although wearied when he
reached his train, expressed himself as
having thoroughly enjoyed the day.
The final numbers on last nights
extraordinary lengthy list of engage.
ments were a magnificent banquet by
the Commercial club and his visit tn
the Bricklayers' and Stonemasons'
union of which he was a fortnight ago
elected an honorary member.
An exciting incident varied and for
a moment threatened to upset the
presidents ceaseless round of actiyi-
ties. While in his carriage on Con-
gress street, en- route to Memorial
hall 70 greet the members of the Socie-
ty of the Army of the Tennessee, one
of the horses attached to his car
riage became fractious and evinced a
desire to run. The driver had all he
could do to restrain the animal, and
after he had been tugging at the lines
for several blocks. the horse finally
broke away and started on a run. Capt.
Matt Pinkerton, of the Chicago Hus-
sars, detachment of which had joined
the presidential procession. galloped
beside the unmanageable steed and
grasped its bride, bringing the ami
NAL to slow trot. The captain main
tanned his hold for the balance of the
trip.

WILL ANTICIPATE INTEREST.
Your Uncle Has Plenty of Money
Which He will Advance for
Slight Considerations.

Washington, Oct. 11.-Assistant Sec
retary Vanderlip has decided to anti
cipate the interest of the entire fiscal
year, the period ending with July l,
1900. The interest due November l
will be paid in full without discount,
but if holders of bonds wish to take
advantage of the offer to anticipate in
terest due at subsequent dates, dis
count at the rate of two-tenths of one
per cent. month will be eXacted.
The amount of interest due from
now until the end of the fiscal year is
about S30.O00,000. The prepayment of
this amount will, it is believed. be a
relief of much Importance to the pres
ent stringent money situation, while
ON the other hand the discount will be
saving of a large amount to the gov
ernment. The treasury is in a posi-
ton to advance these interest pay
ments without the least embarrass-
ment.
The interest due November is made
up of the three per cent. loan of 1898,
the fives of 1904 and the fours OF 1925.
There is $1,600,660 coupon interest,
which is payable at all substreasuries
October 49, The books for the reg
istered bonds of 1904 and 1925 do not
close until the 18th. The checks for
the interest on those registered bonds
will be mailed October 25, and the
checks for the interest on the regis
tered threes will be mailed October %.
The total prepayment of November in
terest is S4 363244.

WONDERFUL STREET PAGEANT
The Most Spectacular Outdoor Feature o.
the Entire Festival In
Chicago.

Chicago, Oct. 10.-The most spectac,
ular outdoor feature of the entire fall
festival, the parade of All Nations,
took place last night, and was viewed
by thousands, the streets in the down
town districts being literally a solid
of the parade. The parade in which
marched representatives of IA coun-
tries, including Germany Venezuela,
Switzerland, Brazil, the Netherlands,
Austria-Hungary, Scotland, Armenia
and Assyria, Belgium, China, Italy and
the United States, included nearly &c
floats some of them extremely beautiful
and novel. The one that attracted the
most attention was the Chinese dragon,
which was shipped here from San
Francisco, for the All Nations parade.
The dragon, which was nearly 300 feet
long. was carried on the shoulders of
200 men and in its immense Jaws and
nostrils were burned red and green
fire in quantities that lit up the parade
for blocks. Among the floats were two
in the German section, one represent
ing the Triumph of Music" the other
Germany's gifts to this country, both
beautifully illuminated with calcium
lights. In the Netherlands section,
feat represented an old Dutch wind
mill, with women in the bridal COS.
tune of 300 years ago, and Alpine
floats, representing scenes in the Alps.
The parade was to have been reviewed
by President Mckinley, but on ac-
count of the lateness of the hour at
which the Miles civic parade was con-
cluded and the Chicago Day banquet
at the Auditorium, at which the presi-
dent and other distinguished visitors
were the guests of honor, this wa,
found TO be impossible.
