There wers g8 organizations or divisions
Of tho parade and over 9 hundred bands.
A score OF bands was.needed 60 furnish
the music for the wholesale dry goods
Republican club alone. After the iass
man had passed the reviewing stand,
Gov. Roossvslt entered his carriage and
preceded By an escort Of moanted police,
drove rapidly to the residence OF his Sis
ter, Mrs. Douglas Robinson ON Madison
avenue. He took dinnsr thsrs and than
went TO Long Island City en- routs for
his home In Oyster Bay.
A count Of the number Of mon In Lima
was made nc the reviewing stand nsar
the Fifth avenue hotel. The count shows
that there were 81, 6ls In the parade.
The immense crowds which were AK
pectsd to gathsr in and around the re-
viewing stand in Madison square early
In the morning had not appeared at 9.So
O'Clock. The drizzling rain which had
fallen for hours had soaked the seats In
the stand and gave the decorations .
bedraggled appearance.
Piatoons OF police In charge OF cap
tains and inspectors, were early ON the
scene. The first persons TO take seats
In the reviewing stands were women.
Half dozen well-dressed women braved
the east wind and arrived shortly before .
O'Clock and took seats under the shelter
OF tree around which the stand was
constructed.
Within less than a block Of the spot
where the Governor was TO take his place
as reviewing officer was stretched one OF
the many strips Of muslin, put up by
Tammany Hall and bearing the words: !
"rhey may make me parade, but they
can't make me vote against Bryan"
AT that time the big stand, designed
to hold 5000 persons, contained less than
q third OF that number. The rain con.
tinued to fall in fine, cold drizzls.
In the space reserved for the Governor
were BENJAMIN b. OdelI, Charles s.
Webb, Senator Scott of West Virginia,
Franklin Murphy. ten. John IL. Brooke.
Oscar 4. Strauss, Charles ). Fairchild,
John ID. Crimmins. Frederick s. Gibbs,
Col. A. s. Mills. Charles A. Schieren,
John A. Mccall, Gen. Francis v. Greene
and John Clarke.
A big banner was stretched In 'front.' of
the stand from q street across to 20S
Fifth avenue, bearing President Mo-
kinley's words to the late ex-Mayor
Strong, who was president Of the Bust
ness Mems Republican and Sound Money
Association:
ave know no class distinction In this
fair land of ours"
Col. Roosevelt reached the stand ut
exactly IL O'Clock. Cheers went up along
the line when he appeared. He stood
in his carriage and waved his hat right
and left to the shouting throngs on
the ourbs.
Hello Teddy" "Three cheers for our
next Vice President" "You're all
right" were the shouts that greeted
Gov. Roosevelt.

1t is among the probabilities that the
early election returns will show consid-
cradle Democratic gains as they will
come from the large cities where prob
ably the Democrats are somewhat strong

est reports from New York city indicate
that their gains are not likely to be very
large there In the codntry districts.
especially those CT the West, the returns
from which will not come until later,
the conditions ara likely to be reversed,
the Republicans showing gains and the
Democrats losses, inasmuch as four years
ago many Republicans voted for Bryan
on account of the hard times. who win
vote for Mckinley this year.

Prediction pronunciamentos are not
to be taken too seriously and good deal
OF latitude rs allowed them. But the
Democratic national and congressional
committees have just put out one which
looks very much liks an incentive to
violence. 1t begins by declaring that
1--WE are certain that votes enough will
be thrown to elect Mr.. Bryan" and then
1t urges the Democrats to form vigilance
committees and go to the booths and see
that the election is not stolen. Such ad-
vice as this coming from the highest men
in the party is liable TO lead to riot and
hloodshed. In all the Northern States
the ballot is protected SO carefully by
law that extensive fraud is impossi-
bic, and any such preeaution as the DEM
ocratic committee suggests tssutterly
uncalled for. The only section where
there is likely to be any cheating is in
the South and there 1t will be entirely in
the interests of the Democrats.

Since the public hearing on the ques-
tion of granting a permanent right of
way over the Marginal Way to the Boston
81 Maine Railroad certain facts have been
brought to public attention which were
not generally known at that time, who
may have an important bearing on the
matter. 1t was assumed at that hearing
and not questioned, that the railroad
company was free to build a solid road

that the road cannot build upon its To-
cation except by permission Of the Score
tary Of War, and there has been no evi.
denes that his permission has been OBJ.

WASHINGTON, March "a. President
Gompers Of the Federation Of Labor,
g. s. Darrow of Chicago and others
identified with organized labor, APP
5peared before the judiciary committee
of the house in advocacy Of the bill re-
:strieting the issuance Of injunction in
time of labor distur rbance. Mr.. DarroW
stated that the working people consid-
cred this resort to Injunction a hagrant
Infringement of their rights which had
grown to an alarming extent Of late.
Commencing with the Chicago strike,
he said, when strikers were arrested,
down to the present time, tho first act
of a strike was to rush to the courts for
an injunction He cited the Debs case
as typical and related how blanket
injunction was issued against a large
number Of those connected with the
American Railway Union Mr. Com
pers urged that the labor interests
wanted TO retain the time -honored trial
by jury. They insisted, he said, that
there should be no injunction in a labor
dispute, for labor had no remedy when
the injunction was once issued. The
committee will continue the hearings
next Monday. lis ls
