WASHINGTON, D. c., October S.-(Spe-
cial)-Governor Tyler and his STAFF were
in the parade to-day, mounted. It is not
the least exaggeration to say that the
Executive Of the Old Dominion received
twice or three times the applause accord
ed the Governor Of any other State. From
Ninth street to FIRST, on the avenue. his
Excellency was kept bareheaded almost
constantly, acknowledging the cheers Of
the people who lined the sidewalks.
one reason for this. in addition 10
others, was that Governor Tylers face
has become so well known in recent
years. 1t IS also true that the crowd had
in it hundreds Of Virginia people. and, Of
course, each wished to show their en-
thusiasm when the Chief Executive Of the
State passed.
The Governor and his staff will probably
return to Richmond tomorrow night. 1t
may be- however. that they will go on TO
Chicago from here. IT will be decided to-
morrow whether the start will be made
from here or from Richmond.

To-day, as on last night, when he was
| recognized in the procession. the hero Of
Santiago divided honors with the hero Of
Manila. 1t IS not certain that Admiral
Schley did not receive as much applause
to-day as did Admiral Dewey
When Admiral Dewey and President
Mckinley descended from the reviewing
stand to enter their carriage the great
crowd applaudcd them in the most up
r0arious fashion Indeed, the people
crowded through the police line and about
the carriage so closely that it was seve-
raj minutes before the driver could start
his horses.
APPLAUSE FOR SCHLEY.
When the President and the Admiral
had driven off in the procession Admiral
Schley came forward TO the top Of the
steps at the front of the platform to de-
scend 10 his carriage. 1t was the first

cred in front of the reviewing stand re-
c0gniZed the Santiago hero the shout
which went up was absolutely deafening.
1t was roar, which lasted full minute.
Admiral Schley stood with uncovered
head acknowledging the cheers The
applause subsidized and he replaced his
hat. But the multitude was determined

This talk Of Dewey as the Democratic
