in the hurry and hustle of getting trains
from the yards into the sheds, all plans
and within half an hour absolute confu-

trains.
Trains Run Late.
Every train leaving the Union station
from q o'clock last night until midnight
was from an hour to two or three hours
late. The special train on the Pennsyl-
vania line for Chicago, which was to
have left at 10 o'clock last night, did
not pull out of the sheds until O'Clock
this morning. and for more than six
long, weary hours the thousand or more
people who came to Washington on the
special walked about the station. sat in
the waiting room when they could find
seats, or lay about on the floors while
the railroad officials frantically hunted
for the train. The ten-coach special was
finally located in the north yards, stow
ed away on an out-of-the-way siding,
and with dead engine and no crew.

the mob that was storming at the gates
When daylight finally broke this morn
ing it revealed waiting rooms, sheds,
concourse and approaches in a condi-
ton of Uttered disarray such as has not
been seen here since the new station
was completed.
Confusion Ended Today.
The confusion in departure of trains
was overcome about daylight, and from
that time on the departing crowds were
handled with machinelike regularity.
Trains were shot out of the sheds at
the rate of about a minute during
the early hours of the day, and as fast
as a track was vacated by a departing
train another was Shunted in to receive
it's load of passengers.
No confusion of any kind developed
during the forenoon. the fact that all
troops, bands and uniformed organiza-
tions were either loaded aboard the cars
in the yards or went to their trains as
individuals or in small groups helping
to prevent congestion.
Union station officials and officials OF
the various railroad lines said this morn
ing that it will be several days before eX-
act figures as to the crowds will be avail
able. Conservative estimates. these ON
cials said today, placed the total for
Sunday, Monday and Tuesday at not less
than 100000 this taking into considera-
ton only the extra traffic brought in for
day and the suffrage DEM
onstration. 1t is likely, the officials SAID,
that this figure will prove far too lo"'
and that the actual number OF passeh-
gers brought to Washington by the
steam railway lines alone during the
three or four days of heavy tramc VIII
