At union Square the stand was reserved exclusively for womfcn and children free of charge. It held 2,000 persons. I jit is esti mated that 1,000,000 people were able to see the parade from the atands specially built for that purpose. i Tho Thanks&riving services at fit. Paul's Chapel were carried out strict ly according o programme. Prior to their being begun a great tsrowd began to assemble on the (east aide of below Fulton street to the postoffise. The Windows and roofs of thtf build ings Ion;; Park Bow and Broadway were; thronged with people with : the exception of those people who bad tickets or passes of some kind. At' exactly 8 50 o'clock I the Piesi- dentf arrived at the Vesey street gate of the chapel. The crowd in the vicinity of?

As the carriage containing ex-President UleveJand ex- PreBideht . Hayes passed cheering j was particularly marked, and Chaunoey M.

The pro cession turned' in'.o Pine street and proceeded to the Pine street entrance pi the sub-treasury building. The treasury side of tbe walk was kept clear for nearly a j; block, and the car riages bems drawn up to the curb the entire distance, ay large part of the occupants were enabled to alight fit onoe. i They proceeded through the corridor of the sub treasury building and out to the stand. - The i religious exercises were as ! follows : ' ) :j ' 1 Processional hymn. .

On the stand proper people fortunate enough to possess the necessary tickets of ad mission were packed almost as solidly as thsy were in the street. The Got ernor! of Pennsylvania was one of the late arrivals, and as ! bis troops were stationed; in the block between New street and Broad way the redoubtable warrior, bad considerable aiQeulty in reaching bis horse, and bat for the kind offices of Sergeant Gredden, of the llth Precint, the Governor would have found it , extremely diffionlt to reach this plaoe at tbe head of his staff Tbere Was a great crash around the sub Treasury steps before the ar rival of i the Presidential party.

I Tb erncb in thai streets in the lower part of the City waa so great as the fast bodies of military continued to arrive! at their appointed places thatit wis found necessary to make a formal itart somewhat earlier than had been I intended- This was done in older that the line' might be length ened out bad got in marching order, thus; relieving at once the pressure in the lower wards and! placing the bead of the column in such a position that when the!

The scenes along the: first part of the line of march ' almost beggars description, Tbe?croWd,1 however, nndr all U ornshmg and suffering, was marvel lously i good natured, its sense of touch; being apparently sub ordilatedl by, or f more properly drowned In patriotism. At 11 o'clock tbe fionaier! parade bad reached the turnlat? Wayerly place-1 , The Gitf Hallfand pVaveily, place stands were packed aim fc to ihe degree of suffo cation, and numerous ticket holders wer unable! to gain tecesa to tiiem or in! many cases even to cross the line6 The police reguations were exceedingly strict; and ho ; one w permitted to cross the lines, unk a for tpod rsnonl. - Crtfaaway U far as the eve could reach wa a hU-a of bunting and banners.' Windows, ledges, telegraph poles and lamp posts and private stands without number vied with the sidewalk crowds in "numbers. I IM The tlrst division of regular troops, cadets and naval corps who headed the line evoked applause at yarious Mints along the line ! In fact, it must be said of the troops generally hat they presented a fine appearance and marenea well, xne unio regi m n-. a ments, nnaer urenerai j; oraxer, were entitled to special comment in this regard- That this was appreciated by the New Yorkers was evd.ni f.-utu the salvos of applause that greeted them along the ; line. At Broome street a careless military! officer was thrown from his horse, but beyond a severe shaking up he sustained no injury! .; ' . . . ' ; THE CBU8H OAU8BS flTS- , xne dense throng : ana , pressure caused numerous fainting fits along the route of the procession, but the sufferers were quickly revived when carried to a point where they could obtain more air. At 11:05 the head of the column turned into Waveriy place arch, not having aa yet been sailed upon to make room for the carriages of the Presidential party. So great was the; crush about the sub-Treasury when 1 ' the ceremonies there were completed, that it was with considerable difficulty that the police cleared the way for the Prest dents carriage to , reach Broadway. fust before 12:30 o'clock the Pres aent and other Honored guests o: the day were driven past the 'Git Hall stand in open carriages. ' Th knowledge that they had s arted from the snb Treasury to .take their places on the reviewing stand at 'Madison Square had been telegraph ed along the line, and the military bodies had been drawn up in saluting columns on the east side of Broadway oargeant iteveil and his t a lad of t wen tv mounted officers roda ahead of the President's carriage, 1 the ' horres in a quick canter with get pace which was maintained throughout the en tire route. . President Harrison in the first carriage! beside Vioe-Presi dent Morton kept his Lead uncovered and nodded to the right and left in acknowledgement of wild applause. which greeted him all along the line It was such reception as never bafore went up from a gathering on Broad way or any other thoroughfare. Men shouted themselves hoarse and waved their bats, while ladies on the street, in windows and on i stands and vehi cles of all descriptions waved flags, ribbons, bunting and handkeroh'.efs vigorously. L i The cabinet offissrs and other honored guests were greeted with plaudits as they drove next in order, but the ovation accorded t ex-Fresi dent Cleveland, was! at masv points more hearty than was reoeived by the occupants of tiie first coaclu ' j ooon after the party drove out of sight and the procession again formed m marching order and moved along. A big white arch on Fifth avenue, above the Waveriy place w, as profuse ly decorated with flowers jand several hundred little girls seated on a stand near the arch, sang patriotid airs and cheered the soldiers as they marched by. Union Square was a sight never tO be forgotten ling .before 8 o'clock the free stand was crowded and it was all the police could do to hold in check the j thousands, who sought to find there a point of ad vantage: from which; to review the arade. Other standi were com pie te y 1 filled and the aisle and steps were utilized by holders of ticket! who ar rived late- Speculators weref early on hand.and offered tickets for ptands at ah advance of from 13 to $5. Wash ington Square was simply a seething, hustling, bustling crowd of humani ty. As the troops passed down th6 waveriy plaoe and p .Fifth avenue under the grand arch the ooene from Grand street and Waveriy Was mag nificent. ! Along the ; - line, I soldiers with their trappings i knd trimmings glittering in tbe sun looked like some vast river of humanity slowly moving u, turning aside for nothing. Aa the troops filed into Fifth avenue they were greeted With ; cheer after oheer. On up the ! broad avenue passed tbe pagean t, with martial musio and steady tread-, .'j j i ; ., I , LAPIXS rOBOOT TOBK PBC.8SXS and disordered attire. .j They had come to : see it all, and see it they intended to any how. Into Union Square came the head of the column The troops made a beautiful turn in passing the statue of the immortal Washington, and wound; around the square like some huge gaily! colored serpent. Nobody minded' being jammed and crushed and walked on It; seemed quite proper that it should be so. I Good nature; predominated, and as different bodies of troops came into sight, good natured comments were made upon their appearance. Madison Square seemed at mass of fll and bunting. Two of the stands were handsomely decorated and ear ly! in the day the crowd began tc gather. The President and partj arrived at 12:30 o'clock, i Id the box with the President iwere Vice-President Morton, Chief Justice Fuller, Secretary of State!

The buzzu of people tbht were' wafted up the avenue on the! wind at noon announced to thuief on the stands at Madison i Square f the ap proaoh of the parade. Even at that time the head of the" parade trad onlj turned into the avenue at Washicg ton Square. The fcisd of hioiuitfcd poiicu galloped up with , loud diter and cleared crowds back 1 to the uide walk. i 1 -: . .'I; ' I The scene at the square waa a bril liant oue.

The hotel windows presented an attractive scene.

The Hoff- onan House especially made a i splen oma pioture. a; balcony had been erected on the 1 roof and the entire building was irracefullv festooned with flgs and streamers. This waa also true of the Albemarle, while the I'uih Avenue was simolr but neatlv jdecorated with a few flags and draped With red. whitA m1 s Kin a iw entire cornice.
