1886 MARCH IN CHICAGO
FOR JOHN
15O,OOO Persons Lining the Route See the Great Protest
Against the Sunday Closing Law-Police
Handle the Situation Well.

CHICAGO. Nov. by actual count
1855 persons paraded tho streets of
chicago to-day In protest against the
enforcement Of tho Sunday saloon clos
ing law.
IL had been announced that more
than 100000 persons had been pledged
to parade. The weather was perfect
and the returns indicate that the liquor
forces turned out their extreme strength.
AT that they fell nearly 10000 short
OF the Mckinley prosperity parade. the
largest In the clty's history. when more
than $4,000 persons passed the review
Ing stand. That also was before auto

dreds OF them could cut through alleys
snd reappear In the line of march two
or three times without detection.
There was strict order In the great
parade and also In the more than $780,
600 spectators lining the route of
march. The city furnished "A small force
OF mounted police, although this was
done ~grudgtngly. AS the parade WAS
looked upon by the officials as anarch-

The mounted police and %patrolmen
handle the situation admirably. The
only congestion was caused by columns
OF marchers doubling hack before the
reviewing stand and this was speedily
smoothed out. There was very little
drunkenness. at least before and during
the parade. The managers Of the
demonstration saw explicitly to that.
After the parade was over, however,
there were many celebrations at which
the regulations were modified or re-
moved altogether.
The demonstration was overwhelm-
