new YORK Celebrates
The Incl. INC YEAR
LOWER BROADWAY IS FILLED
WITH A NOISY, HAPPY
IHROAG.

Chimes of Old Trinity Peal Above the
Deafening Din--Rain Lets Up In the
Evening and Great Crowds Appear
With HOrns--Feathers and Confetti
Have Their sway-"Red, White and
Blue" at Midnight.
New York, Jan. 1.-The passing of the
old year and the advent Of the new
were observed here in the good old
fashioned way.
Each New Yorker celebrated in ac-
cordance with his individual bent.
The playhouses were filled 10 standing
room only, the cafes were crowded to
the limit; up and down lower Broadway
moved increasingly a nosy happy
throng; while above the deafening din
pealed the chimes from Trinity and
less historic spires under which congre-
cations gave the occasion a religious
significance.
Rain, which had fallen steadily
throughout the day, let up as the even
ing advanced, and the crowds that had
made new years memorable appeared
on the streets blowing horns, ringing
bells. tickling each other with feather
tipped sticks and showering confetti
over ALL The police, warned by Com
missioner Bingham, to whom protests
had been made when the annual night
of liberty had degenerated into unbrI-
died license, offered show Of restrain
ing the exuberance of the paraders,
but the good nature Of the crowd car
ried everything before it, and the car
nival went on with Happy New
Year shout for every one.
As midnight approached the merry
makers congregated near Trinity
church, way down town, where, as
twelve O'Clock" rang forth mighty
shout welcomed 1907, This was follow
ed by Red White and Blue" LIB
erty," Long, Long Ago" "suwanee
River" "Home, Sweet Home" and 9TH
er airs, while the listening thousands
waved hats. sticks and umbrellas in
joyful abandon. Throughout the city
other chimes rang out the old and rang
in the new.
Within the churches psalms were
read and hymns chanted, while the
prayers of the watchers rose to heaven.
The celebrations in the cafes surpass-
ed any previous carnival Of jollity in
New York. Elaborate preparations had
| been made to entertain those who
would welcome the New Year with
feasting. For several days the head
walters Of all the leading hotels and
restaurants had been reservlng table
| accommodations, and the city's re-
sources TOR catering to large crowd
were taxed to the utmost
Public and private charitable jnsti-
| tutions, imbued with the New Years
spirit, Joined in the merrymaking, and
| throughout Greater New York KING
| Carnival held sway.
