Buffalo, Aug 26.-Ths was a day of alternate
showers and sunshine, but nevertheless the at
tendance at the Pan-American Exposition was
large and the exposition managers are hoping and
believing that the attendance will be larger this
week than that of last week which was the largest
of the year. This was Municipal Day. and to-mor-
row will be known the Porto Rican Expedition
Day. On Wednesday there will be New-York State
Grange Day, Thursday Cuba Day and Saturday
Shrine Day, when the Shriners will be here.
The West Point cadets went to Niagara Falls to-
day in body. Tomorrow they will give fine
exhibition drill in the Stadium, which will doubtless
be witnessed by at least ten thousand persons.
Municipal Day celebrated in the Temple of
Music. Mayor Diehl of Buffalo made the speech of
welcome at a meeting. which attended by two
thousand persons There many mayors pres
ent and members of city governments. Speeches on
municipal government were made by Mayor Pre-
fontaine of Montreal Mayor Hayes of Baltimore,
Mayor Jones of Toledo, Mayor Johnson of Fargo.
