FEW MEN HAVE EVER BEEN
ACCLAIMED HERE AS WAS
THE PRESIDENT LAST NIGHT

Few men in the history OF the United
States have been greeted anywhere as
was President Wilson last night in Phila-
delphia. The President left his private
car at Broad Street Station at 1880 o'clock
sharp, surrounded by members of the re-
ception committee, secret service men and
blueeoats.
A crowd Of perhaps 5000 men and women
had gathered in West Penn Square, max
ing II for the time impossible. Through
this jam OF humanity the police attempted
TO break a lane through which the Presi-
dent and his escort might pass. but owing
TO the difiieulty OF this the plans We're
changed and the Presidential party left
Broad Street Station by the 18th and FIJI
bert streets door.
BY the time the mounted police leading
the First City Troop swung north into
Broad street. 1itneys were packed from
curb to curb around three sides OF City
Hall. The crowd at Market street and
West Penn Square. disappointed. surged
over the north plaza TO get a look at the
President. sweeping the hundreds OF po-
licemen before them. until halted by the
Eall Of automobiles along the curb.
NO sign OF the sorrows be has borne

Stained glass in the front door was
cracked and a new etaircarpet was worn
| threadbare.
DISAGREE AS TO SETTLEMENT.
Colonel uKeeean went to Palm Beach,
Fla. late In January, after renting the
house 10 the Sunday Campaign Commit
tee. He returned March 81, and on April
sent the claim for damages to Ben r..
welch, who had charge OF entertaining
| Sunday. Negotiations for settlement
were unsatisfactory to both sides. MT.
Keeean threatened to begin suit.
He was asked today whether the list
Of damages was a true one.
TITS true all right, and there's a good
deal more BESIDES" he answered VI
haven't been able to get any satisfaction
for my claims from the Campaign Com
mittee."
Relations between Colonel Keegan and
Ben r. welch are strained.
THE claims are ridiculous" said Mr..
welch. 1T is UP to Mr.. Keegan to prove
them We don't have TO do anything We
will stand pat"
Have you got a list Of the furniture
and the condition II was In when the Sun
day party took possession?' he was
asked
MIR. Keegan said he sent us one, but
never saw IT," he replied.
Don't you think some damage was
done7"
"Oh, yes, there was some damage,
suppose"
Mr. welch admitted the house was
dirty when the Sunday party left 1t.
COMMITTEEMAN SUPPORT WEIGH
Edward II. Bonsall, of the Sunday Cam
paIgn Committee, also thought tho
charges too high.
THE matter is In Mr.. welch's hands"
said Mr. Borsall HE was chairman OF
the Entertainment Committee, Yes. I
saw the list OF claims but I don't think
they're reasonable. I cant say what |
think would be a reasonable figure"
This also was the way Joseph NJ. steele
looked at II.
"The claims are altogether too high.
There was some damage done I suppose.
but we can't do business with Mr. Keesan
till he lowers his price It's $500 now.
The matter is up to Mr. Welch, how
ever.
