tire parade. Suddenly na1 hundred
mounted policemen galloped up and
having formed a line, charged and
showed the people back. Many women
and children were caught in the crush.
Some shrieked, others tainted and sew
eral after the panic was over were car
ried away in ambulances.
Tonight the smoker given at the
Waldorf-Astoria to the sailors of the.
Olympia concluded New York's won
derful reception of Admiral Dewey and
his men.
Sir Thomas Upton was given an ova-
ton at Fifty-second street, and was
obliged to stand up in his carriage.
When the Admiral heading the
parade reached Forty-second street,
deafening roar of applause went up
that must have shaken the foundation
of what is left of the old reservoir.
Gen. Miles and Rear Admirals Samp-
son and Schley all came in for their
share of the applause.
AT 1:57 the Admiral was in the
stand. Capt. Coghlan and Capt. Wildes
joined him a moment later, the crowd
cheering like mad. The first thing the
Admiral did was to take off his chapeau
in acknowledgment of the crowds
greeting Mayor Van Wyck immedi-
ately took him in charge and conducted
him to a corner of the enclosure,
where chef was in waiting with
hamper of sandwiches and some bottles
of wine. The Admiral
WAS GREATLY PLEASED
and said to the mayor: "Ah, that's
good. 1t was long pull, wasn't it?"
referring to the long ride He passed
the sandwiches to his officers and to
Rear Admiral Sampson, much as if
he were one of family picnic. He
drank one small glass of wine and de-
clinad second. 'No, no." he said.
He then walked around greeting his
captains.
Admiral Sampson was cheered as he
alighted from his carriage. Gen. Miles
was the next notable to be recognized,
and he was warmly applauded
Gen. Miles repeatedly took off his cap
to the crowd in acknowledgment.
Admiral Schley was very warmly re-
ceived at the reviewing stand He
smiled constantly and bowed to right
and left
1t took thirty minutes to get the adj
miral and the other distinguished
guests and the committee from the
forty-two carriages in which they rode,
and then the sailors from the Olympia,
headed by Sousa and his band playing
The Stars and Stripes Forever"
marched past the stand. Next came
the marines from the Olympia, follow
ed by another detachment of Olympia
jacAies. The West Point cadets. in
their gray and white uniforms, came
next. Their marching was superb.
The regulars came next AS they
marched by Gen. Merritt stood up with
the admiral and Mayor Van Wyck, and
remained standing until the regulars
had passed. The light artillery brought
up the rear of the regulars. Then way
down the line burst of cheers an
nounced the coming of Governor Roose-
welt. The Governor was attended by
his S. He was not in uniform.
FolloT-4,5 came Squadron A, led by the
Squadron mounted band. Then came
the Twenty regiment of Brooklyn
and the Fourteenth regiment. There
was an elaborate display of
KITE-FLYING
during the review. Suspended imme-
diately over the reviewing stand, and
at a great height, was an immense Am
erican flag, held up by five kites. An
other line of kites held a series of pen
nants in the national colors, while 9TH
er lines held flags and streamers of
various sorts. The wind was just
strong enough and the sunlight SUI
ficient to bring out a most beautiful
effect Admiral Dewey noticed the flags
and expressed himself as we'll pleased
with the display
Everybody was specializing as to the
reception Of the Seventh regiment at
the reviewing stand 1t was more cor
dial than expected. There was some
Kissing as the regiment passed the
stand and some derisive calls, but the
cheering at this point was easily the
loudest.
At Fifty-ninth street and Fifth ave-
nue. the Seventh was Kissed. People
in the Netherland, Savoy and Plaza
Hotels cheered, but the Kisses arose
above the cheering The members of
the regiment looked neither to the
right nor to the left but marched stol-
idly on.
The Seventy-first regiment was cor
daily welcomed. The Admiral took off
his hat to the command as it passed.
The naval militia of the State troops
made magnificent display, the old
guard, respondent in white coat, blue
trousers and bear-skin shakos, closed
the New York State display.
The Pennsylvania troops received
royal welcome when they reached the
State and reviewing stands. Somebody
in the State stand proposed three
cheers for Pennsylvania just after the
Governor had passed. They were given
with will. The Pennsylvanians lived
up to their national reputation as SOL
diers, as far as their appearance was
concerned. Two companies of colored
troops among the Quaker soldiers re-
ceived much applause as they passed
The greatest applause given TO any Of
the military organizations was accord
ed TO the crack
TENTH PENNSYLVANIA
regiment, which got back from the Phil
ippines a short time ago. This regi-
ment marched in the regulation khaki
uniform which they wore during their
service before Manila. The colors. torn
to tatters. set the crowd wild with en-
thusiasm.
Admiral Dewey uncovered to the cell
ors and nodded his head sympathetic
ally. The men marched as veterans
should, and while every man in the re-
