MANY CROWDED STATION
 TO SEE PRESIDENT WILSON
Careful Precautions Taken to Safe
 guard Presidential Party.

President and Mrs. Wilson's arrival in New London Monday afternoon was marked by the careful precautions to safeguard the presidential party against interference. Intermingling with the throng of several hundred, including several Norwich auto par ties, which gathered at the New Ha- ven railroad station to catch a glimpse of the president were a dozen secret service men, special police officers of the New Haven railroad system and a detail of uniformed police in charge of Lieut.. Thomas J. Jeffers.
 Only once did the secret service men edge up close to the president, while others of their number drove back the crowd, when a man of foreign eX- traction attempted to push his way through the gathering in the direction of the nations chief executive. That was at the railroad station while the president, Mrs. Wilson, Miss Margaret Wilson and Dr. Harry M. Lee. were walking from the private Pullman car drawn up on the siding to the right of the platform. to the waiting auto- mobile. of Dr. Lee.
 Lower State street was lined on the arrival of the 4.06 train, on the end of which the presidents private Pullman was attached. Many others took up an advantageous position on the overhead bridge.
 Captain Heney, head of the secret service department at New York, ar rived in the city early Monday after noon and under his direction arrange ments were speedily completed for the arrival of the chief executive and his party. n One of his first duties was Co

get in touch with Lieutenant Jeffers at police headquarters with whom he made arrangements for a police guard to reenforce the secret service body guard.
 Every member of the day division of patrolmen was detailed to report at the railroad station shortly before o'clock. Lieutenant JefferS took charge of police detail. Some time prior to the arrival of the train, when it was seen that the throng was steadily in creasing, Captain Heney suggested
 that ropes be stretched to assist in checking the crowd.
 Four automobiles waited in lower State street from 3.30 until the arrival of the train. Captain Heney directed the placing of these cars. Three were stationed in a straight line and secret orders passed to the police that they were to occupy the first car. Directly behind the police car was the machine physician, and occupied by President and Mrs. Wilson, and Miss Margaret Wilson. Four secret service men rode on the running boards, so that the chief executive was completely shield ed when the car started off at full speed up State street in the direction of the Mohican hotel.
 Directly in the rear of the presi- dents car was third, filled to over flowing with secret service men in charge of Captain Heney. A four passenger machine of the coupe type, which had been left standing on the opposite side of the street was not used by the party.
 The crowd which awaited the presi- dent in State street in the vicinity of the Mohican was fully as large in pro- portion to that which had gathered at the railroad station. Members of the police department headed by Lieuten- ant InffPrS had PNnSiHpr1 hle difficulty in forcing an entrance to the main lobby of the hotel through the crowd of several hundred, all eager to look upon the president. Lieutenant Down. ing and Officer Rudd of the state po- lice also joined the force, and with the arrival of the secret service men everything was in readiness for the party. Police and secret servic agnts formed a fringe on the outside of the throng until the president and party were safely lodged in their apartments on the sixth floor.
 Two moving picture men, one of whom had made the trip from New York on the same train with the pres photographs, but their efforts were in vain. Strict orders had been given to the police to see that no moving pictures were taken and these were carried out to the letter. Several at tempts were made, but each time secret service agent or the military attaches who have been with the Mex ican- American joint commission at the Griswold. frustrated the plans.
 Everything was carried out in ap- pie pie order under the direction of Captain Heney and noteworthy fea- ture was the fact that it was attend ed by as little excitement as possible. as possible. When all was completed and the party was safe under the roof of the Mohicanf hotel, Captain Heney complimented Lieutenant Jeffers on the able manner in which his men had assisted in handling the situation.
 Throughout the entire evening a small crowd waited on the sidewalk in front oi the Mohican in the hope of
