south side of the street-railway tracks.
The President sat in the east side of the
coach, facing the west. and the coach
stopped he saw through the window q
double column of human beings on either
side of Washington street that was SEEM
ingly endless. The street was clear OF all
obstacles and the columns on either hand
presented one of the most striking pictures
the President has witnessed on his trip
Not a window could be found that was not
filed with people. These sights augmented
by the decorations and flags formed a first
impression of the magnitude OF the recep-
ton.

the party en- route. He Joined the recep-
ton committee. and IL then included both
Senators Fairbanks and Beveridge. former
Austrian Minister A c. Harris. Admiral

Importance IL was noticed that the Presi-
dent seemed joyous for his welcome. but
his step was not as elastic as IL was two
years ago. Few detected this. however.
