THE EVENINGS SCENES AND INCIDENTS

The homecoming welcome that Admiral
Dewey received last night on his return to
his beloved Washington was almost ire
mendous in its significance. 1t was the
tribute of the representatives of nation
of 30 600 600 exulting people, and in its en-
thusiastic character stands unparalleled in
the annals of the capital city repiete as
they are with popular demonstrations. 1t
was as glad and as glowing a welcome as
the great human heart of a fag-loving,
country-worshiping multitude could extend
to one who had upheld the glories of that
flag so valiantly and served that country
So well.
Pennsylvania avenue never before con-
tanned such an immense outpouring or such
an ardent one, and when the red fire was
flaming and the air was brilliant with fiery
stars coursing hither and thther like pa
triotic meteors, and moving beneath this
canopy came the masses of his fellow citi-
zens to pay him homage. the scene must
have filed the hero's bosom with emotions
deep and intense. Particularly must he
have been affected when the great army
occupying the sidewalks surged out into
the avenue. and, filling it from curb to
curb, swept up in enthusiastic waves to sa
lutte the man they honored
Ringing of the Bells.
The broad thorOughfare and every van
tage point along it crowded long ere
the din of guns. the changing of bells and
the screams of steam announced that the
great hero had reached the city at last.

START OF c,THEs PARADE.
A Brilliant Scene Along Renn.yIyania
Avenue.

The scene at the starting point of the
parade. the Peace monument, was orderly
in the extreme, the various troops and or
ganiZations participating taking their re-
spective positions for the most part as di-
rected by the general orders of the chief
marshal, Gen. Geo. n. Harries. There was.
therefore, little confusion in the formation
of the procession, and when the signal to
start was telephoned to Gen Harries at
T:45 the order to move was obeyed instant
ly, and not once did the procession stop
after 1t was started.
Gen. Harries occupied a position at the
Peace monument, surrounded by his staff
and Immediately behind them was the Old
Guard, which preceded the G. A. r. When,
however, the word to start was given the
bcyclists took the lead behind the mounted
policemen, and then followed the Marine
band in It's full strength. Then came the
chief marshal, the others following as
named in the general orders. Mr. w H.
Rapley, chairman of the committee on pa
rades, early at the starting point and
personally assisted in the formation of the
line. When the procession started Mr.
Rapley marched with the Old Guard, and
expressed himself as much pleased with
the many details of the parade.
The crowd at the starting was very
small. as compared, with that met further
up the line of march, and there was

Incidents on the Train which Rore
Admiral Dewey Here.

Great sound waves rushed over the
Dewey special yesterday all the way from
Jersey City to Washington. Now there
was a mighty roar. which the special PAST

covered bridge: again il would sink into
an indistinct murmur as a big town was

toward the flashing train.
1t seemed as If the engineers were try
ing TO crack every steam whistle along
the entire route, and the volume of cheers
was measured only by the number of peo-
pie each town could muster for a crowd
AT Newark, Trenton. Wilmington, Chester
and the outskirts of Philadelphia and at
Baltimore the crowds were immense
around the stations and all along the
tracks. In fact, the train practically
passed through an avenue Of cheering
men, women and school children all the
way to Washington.
Admiral Dewey was resting most of the
the time, and ii was only occasionally that
the people got a glimpse of him the
train flashed by.
AT Princeton junction there was stop of
a minute or two to prevent the students of

AT Philadelphia there most strik-

great city was blowing. Those within hear

hear anything else. and far as the eye
could reach over the city, too far away for
the voice of the whistle to be heard, col
umns of steam could be seen like white
mist rising from the entire metropolis.
The train arrived at the Pennsylvania
depot just on time. While Admiral Dewey
was preparing to leave the train he called
out to a group of officers standing under
the window of his private car some with
lees. went into the admiral's car, and after

Home they passed Admiral Dewey
Probably the loudest cheering at this place
was over the picture of Dewey carried by
the book binders
After the bookbnders and printing press
men had passed the parade formation was
broken entirely by the crowd of spectators
who followed the pressmen in the ropcd of
avenue by thousands.
Police Unequal to the Emergency.
The police seemed utterly unable to cope
with the emergency. The nth division.
with the letter carriers at the head. were
the crowd. which rushed up to the stand
cheering wildly for Dewey. Admiral Dewey
the President and other guests evidently
thinking the parade at an end. al
though only about half had passed. left the
stand and were driven away. 1t was con-
siderable time before a way could be forced
through the crowd for Haley's Band and
the letter carriers. The affair was unfor-
tunate in every way. Many of the best
was broken and the disappointment OF the
men in line on reaching the stand and
hnding Dewey gone was great.

Then the entire fifth division was forced
to march through narrow lane of huma l.

made by paraders and spectators about the

DEWEY'S ARRIVAL.
An Immense Crowd at the PennsyI-
vania station.

Around the Sixth street station, where the
admiral first put foot upon Washington
soil since his triumphs in the far east and
the honors following these achievements.
was gathered last night a crowd which sur
passed in numbers and enthusiasm any
throng seen upon the streets in that
vicinity. 1t was an almost impossibilty for
the legion of police stationed there to re-
press the crowd once the firing of an ad-
mirafs salute from the Mall announced
the fact that Dewey had reached the city.
The crowd was impatiently eager. and
each member of the mighty mass We'd with
the other in pressing forward to catch the
first glimpse of Manilas hero. The terri
tory along the 9th street side of the sta
ton, the r. street front and the intersec-
ton of Pennsylvania avenue and 9th street
was roped off with wire cables. This pre-
caution was most necessary, for even with
such assistance the police seemed powerless
for a time. This was not for long, how
ever. as the blue-coats rallied and once more
cleared the streets.

With the President.
In a few minutes Secretary Long, ac-
companied by Admiral Dewey, proceeded
through the private apartments of the
White House to the Presidents room, and
was there presented to the President. The
greeting was warm and without restraint.
The members Of the cabinet were quickly
introduced. short time only was spent
in this room, and then the President and
party moved down the stairs on their way
to the reviewing stand. The President ac-
companied Admiral Dewey. Behind were
the members of the cabinet and then the
other members Of the party. The entire
party reached the stand few minutes af-
ter 1870 O'Clock, much ahead of the sched-
ule. SO few people were expecting them
that the enthusiasm was somewhat limited.
The party went through the rear grounds
Of the White House.

reached the White House the electric

The Admiral Took His Place Ahead
of Time.

Inc Adm1raI TOOK His Place Ahead
of Time.
Before dark the crowd began to gather
in the neighborhood Of the reviewing stand
at the treasury. By 6 o'clock the streets
were crowded and advantage was taken of
every eligible spot to see the hero of Ma
Mia and the turnout in his honor The
lights began to blaze up and down the ave-
nue. and the searchlights to waver here and
there, now touching the tower of the post
office and now lighting up the dense masses
of people on the avenue Then Just before
seven the ringing of bells and blare of
whistles told everybody with ears to hear
that Dewey had arrived BY this time the
stand was nearly full and the streets were
one mass of packed humanity. Now and
then carriage would bowl up the cleared
avenue, turn into 18th street, and the crowd
would cheer as some member of the recep-
ton committee would be recognized. The
red torches were blazing along the avenue
from end to end. making two streams of
red light. Then from the stand could be
seen dark line moving rapidly through
the red lines. Nearer the cavalry escort
could be distinguished.
The Hero of Manila.
Behind came a carriage drawn by four
horses and bowling along followed and sur
rounded by a wave of cheers. In the car
rage was the man all this display was for
George Dewey, full admiral of the navy of
the United States. and the hero of the Ma.
Mia fight The immense crowd at 18th and
the avenue burst into great cheer as the
carriage passed on to the White House.
Afterward came pause while the recep-
ton was going at the White House,
broken, however, by the march up the ave-
nue. of the white winged bearers of the red
torches. moving mass of red fire.
Admiral Dewey was due on the stand at
o'clock but he usually is he was ahead
of time and took his place in the PROV of
the boat in the center of the stand at 7:iO
He was accompanied by the President
members of the cabinet and of the recep-
ton committee. Before o'clock, up to-
ward the Peace monument, Roman candles
began to make arches over the avenue
showing the start Of the parade. Then
with the red fire blazing each side the
bicycle division. each wheelman carrying
lanterns and the whole looking like a flock
of firehys, could be seen. The head of the
line reached the stand at o'clock.
Saluted the Flags.
Admiral Dewey stood as the different
commands passed by. saluting the officers
and removing his chapeaux as every Ameri-
can Gag went by. The admiral made many
pleasant remarks the different features
went by and evinced an interest in every
thing. The High School Cadets were loudly
cheered at this point as were the Gonzaga
Cadets. their band playing, Home, Sweet

admiral headed the procession down the
station. while the officers and committee
men fell in at the rear.
