PASADENA, July 1.-THE doctors
are here and have taken possession of
the entire Maryland hotel building, the
summer guests having moved into the
Maryland bungalows to make room for
the medicos and their families. There
are over 300 quartered in this hostelry,
while others are staying with friends
in Pasadena and Los Angeles and at
some of the smaller hotels It is esti-
mated that there are 600 delegates and
and visitors to the sixty-siXth annual
session of the American Institute of
Homeopathy, which will hold forth here
ell this week. They come from all parts
of the United States and some from
other countries. They have been arriv-
ing on every train since Saturday. The
largest delegation came in yesterday
morning over the Salt Lake route in
two special trains which carried 800
persons.
Those who came by this route had
the unusual experience of landing in
a vacant lot after their cross-country
Journey, the old station having been
torn down last week to make room for
the new station. They arrived at $3.50
o'clock and special electric trains were
waiting to convey them to the Mary
land. They arrived there at 8:45 o'clock
and by 10 o'clock all the 300 visitors
had been at breakfast. The several
wagonloads of baggage was all cared
for and everyone had been assigned 10
rooms by 1890 o'clock.
The hotel management and local COM
mittee are given high praise by Dr; D.
Richie Horner one of the leading ply
siciaps, for the manner in which the
visitors were received. Il have been
attending sessions of the institute for
fifteen years." he said yesterday, land

so. Some went on sightseeing trips
