DETROIT, Mich, Sept. 21.-For the
second time in it's history the city of
the straits is entertaining the chief
executive of the nation. President
Roosevelt arrived in the city at
o'clock today. Throughout the day the
president was greeted with tumuItous
cheers at his every appearance. Crowds
lined the streets about the Hotel Cad
lilac all day.
1t was restful day for the president,
although his time was completely oc-
cupled by the programme mapped out
for him by the local committee.
Immediately on his arrival the pres
ident was driven to the Hotel Cadillac.
AT 1890 o'clock he attended services at
the Fort Street Presbyterian church.
He drove from there to Gen. r. A.
Ayers residence, where he was enter
tanned at luncheon. He returned to
the Cadillac soon after o'clock, only
to leave again in short time for a
drive about the city.
Visits a Dying Veteran.
During the drive he called at st.
Mary's hospital at the wish of Thomas
K. Doherty, a local veteran of the
Spanish war, who is dying of consump-
ton in the hospital. The president re-
manned at Doherty's bedside for some
minutes, chatting. Then he returned
to the Cadillac, where he dined with
a party of friends.
Tonight the president dined in the
Flemish room Of the Cadillac with a
party of friends.
Tomorrow will be a very busy day
for the chief executive. He will adj
dress the convention Of Spanish war
veterans at 10 a. m. At IL o'clock he
will be driven to the steamer Tashmoo
for ride on the river returning at
o'clock. At 4 o'clock he will review

Twenty-first regiment of Essex fusi-
leers from Canada. At p. m. he will
attend the banquet of the veterans in
Light Guard armory, where he will
make the address of the evening.
Nearly Run Over.
Two little girls had narrow escape
from being trampled upon by the
horses attached to the presidents car
riage. They had darted out suddenly
from the curb, almost under the
horses feet. Capt. Guyman was COM
PEELED to throw the animals back on
their launches to keep them off the
children. The occupants of the presi-
dents carriage were brought to their
feet in trembling anticipation of
tragedy, and it was only by a hairs
breadth that the little ones escaped
Then it was that the route was chang
ed to less congested streets. President
Roosevelt had suggested a change as
soon as he saw the crowded condition
of Jefferson avenue, and the party had
proceeded only about two blocks when
the narrow escape Of the two little
girls proved that his fears were well
founded.
Wants to Keep it Quiet.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, Sept. 21.-Sen-
ator Hanna tonight stated that Presi-
dent Roosevelt had made the request
that no public demonstration be made
over his visit to Cleveland as the guest
of Senator Hanna Saturday night and
Sunday, Oct. and 5. The visit is not
a public one and the president wishes
to spend the day as quietly as posi-
BILE at Senator Hanna's home.
