PLANS ALL COMPLETED
GREAT CROWD EXPECTED

At the final meeting of the committee on
reception and entertainment of his Royal
Highness. Prince Pu Lun, held yesterday.
the arrangements were all gone over for
the last time. and some slight changes were
made.
H. H. Hanna, of the executive committee.
suggested that it would be more dignified
to have only a small number OF carriages,
bearing members of the reception COM
mittee and other prominent citizens in the
princes escort from the Union Station, and
it was decided that this would be the bet
ter plan. Most of the committee on recep-
tion will be at the Statehouse to welcome
his Highness. and only six carriages. bear
ing members of the different committees,
will be in the cortege which goes to the
Statehouse from the station. All of the
military companies in the city, including
one battery and another company from
Lebanon, will constitute the princes escort.
There will be in command of Major Conde.
From 2:15 this afternoon until the ar
rival of his Highness the Statehouse will
be closed to the public and the place will
be in charge of the police. This will be
done in order 10 prevent the building being
thronged with the crowd before the prince
and his retinue arrive.
When he arrives a letter of welcome from
Governor Durbin will be presented TO him.
AS the Governor is out of town and can
not possibly return in time to receive the
royal visitor, Attorney General Miller has
been delegated to represent him at the re-
ception. Mayor Hoffman, John w. Kern
and C. NJ. Kimbrough will also make ad-
dresses of welcome, to which the prince
will reply.
The public will not be permitted to enter
the Statehouse by any entrance other than
the south one, passing through and out of
the building by the north one.
slight change has been made in the pro-
gramme for Thursday, in order that the
distinguished guest may get to the Atlas
engine works earlier in the afternoon. The
employees of this establishment do not work
as late now as when the arrangements were
first made, thus making the change neces-
sary.
During his stay in Indianapolis, his High
ness will occupy eight parlOrs on the second
floor of the Claypool Hotel.
The weather bureau promises fair wealth
er to-day and great crowd is expected to
be In evidence. The train bearing the royal
party is expected to arrive at 2:+O p. m.
