CHEERING CROWD

posToN. Feb. z4.-President Will
SON was the guest of Boston today
The city was not alone, however, In
extending to the chief executive a
welcome home from his labors at the
peace conference in Paris, for thou
sands of persons from all parts OF
New England arrived on early trains
to swell the throng in the streets
through which it was arranged ne
should pass on his way from Com
monwealth pier to his hotel.
For the greater part of the crowd,
this was the only opportunity to see
the president, as Mechanics Hall,
where he was to deliver his only ad-
dress of the day seats but 1000 per-
sons and all the tickets for the meet-
ing were allotted several days ago.
Buildings all along the route OF
the parade were ablaze with flags
and bunting and recognition OF the
international character of the presi-
dents recent activities was shown
in the frequent display of flags OF
the nations which were allied with
the United States in the war.
The steamer George Washington,
on which the president and his par
ty made the voyage from Brest,
dropped anchor off quarantine
shortly after dark last night. The
most exciting moments of the trip
was Sunday afternoon, when 1t was
suddenly discovered that the steam
er, running through a dense fog
was headed directly for Thatcher's
Island, off Cape Ann.
It was the destroyer Harding,
running ahead as a guard ship,
which discovered the danger and
gave a warning signal. Engines
were reversed and the ship was
stopped thousand yards from shore
in deep water.
A short distance off Boston Har-
Dor, the George Washington was
met by an escort of eight subma-
rine chasers. The ship proceeded to
quarantine and the presidential
party remained on board overnight.
It has previously been arranged
that they should be brought up to
Commonwealth pier this forenoon
on the coast g,iald cutter Ossipee
and the George Washington should
then leave for New York to land the
1000 troops who returned with the
president.
The stormn which had hung over
the coast for two days passed off 10
sea last night and the day opened
clear.
The meeting at Mechanics Hall
was set for 2:30 o'clock in the af-
ternoon. All the baggage of the
presidential party of as persons was
