8 o'clock carried in many instances more
than It's quota of passengers. Trains
were rapidly filled with the throngs be-

being boarded in the upper end of the
city upon returning from Washington.
Never before was the old city so thor
oughly depopulated as it is today. Men.
women and children Of all kinds and
types We're Washington bound.
1t is expected that another large throng
will go over tonight to witness the pyro-
technic display. Many of those who
went over this morning expect to remain
for the fireworks display tonight. Doubt
their quota of passengers. Trains on the
electric line will be run as long as they
are needed.
