HIS TH6 SHAUliY RECEPTION THE CRuWDS TO 8EE THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE THE.DIS ; GRACEFUL' BEBAVIOK OF THE "MOB OTHER NEWS BY WIRE. Goifkey, 111., October 5- The President's special train stopped here a few minutes shortly after midnight. The excursionists were about retiring. AU were dfelighted with, their enter tainment in St. Louis.' ; Chicago," Oct. 5. The train bear ing President Cleveland and his wife puffed slowly into the Alton depot at 9 o'clock. There was a loud shout from the crowd about, then cheers as the distinguished pair walked across Jthe platiorm to their carnage. A ino- nieni later tue carriage aoor ciosea with a slam. The four spirited horses jumped as the whip circled over their heads and the President was 'ridincr through the streets of Chicago. It was only a few minutes after 7 this morning when the "people com menced to stop at the depot where the President was expected to alight from his car. At that hour there were 2,000 men, women, boys and girls standing around the little three-cornered frame depot which looked dis mal in its coat of weather-beaten drab paint. It is a two-story struc ture with two small waiting rooms, in ' each of which stoves furnished slight heat for the crowd of persons who had become chilled stand- 1Dg on the outside looking atvthe rusty cars on two sides of the small frame buildings near hy, the towering elevators or the bul letin boards covered with highly col ored pictures of theatrical attractions. m an directions vacant lots or rough lumber or stone yards could be seen. Not a bit of decoration was visible for a block around the little depot, and not a-' vestige of color could be Been on the latter building except a dirty drab, which protected the out side weather-boarding from the ele jmentSj and the cig yellow letters, which ilooked almost flashy in their bed of gloom. i The enthusiasm, however, was elec tric. , Such bright faces in the same numbers were never seen before. There must have been fifty thousand'! men, women and children gathered within a few blocks of the station. Alt the streets leading to that thor bughfare were choked up completely with the press of human beings Above the heads of the crowd could be-seen the helmeted military. They weio a fine lot of men,in all four com panies, cavalry and artillery. 4 Their arrival occasioned a sensation, which grew more and more tumultous as ; the Presidential equipage! ap peared on the scene. The crowl was entirely good natured. . Its one wish seemed to be to express respect for the Piesident and his lady. Although boisterous at times as all other crowds are this one was on its good behavior and readily enough obeyed the requests ,of the police to dtand back and leave a clear space through which the Pres ident might pass. As the President's carriage moved away the military formed around it and the tumultuous crdwd with wild cheering fell in be hihd. .-The President took off his hat the moment he got into the carriage and bowed and smiled' as roaring cheers went up He seemed well pleased with his welcome and he might well be, for it was royal. Mrs Cleveland wore a . black traveling dress and looked fresh and charming As tue Presidential carriage came in view a cheer went up irom the masses that filled the streets as the carriage advanced, lhere was no music until the procession got to 23d street, and the crowds' did nothing but look at the President and Mrs. Cleveland. Close behind the Presi dent's carriage came the Milwaukee Light Horse squadron and battery Yi fourth artillery, XJ. S. A. The crowd yelled itself hoarse cheering for the President when . the second division swung into line atthe corner of Mich igan avenue pnd 23d street. Down 23d styeet, Wabash avenue and 35th street the people were packed as never be- lore in ire nistory 01 mcago. un the tops of the houses and in the ! . L - 1 ' 1 - f n y-v windows were crowds of eager faces and from the roofs floated streamers evidently 'improvised hurriedly for the occasion. Down at Twenty-sec ond street, where tho procession bp gan, there was a repetition of the depot scene, and a man might as well have attempted to walk through a brick wall as to force his way into the idst of this fence of men and women, The procession, with tho President and the recepthn commit tee at its ueaa, started irom A wenty second street promptly at 10 o'clock. It was in four divisions and comprised both regular troops and militia, saib drs and marines from the United States steamer Michigan, Grand Arniy posts, veterans, various civic societies, bicyclers on their wheels and all sorts of industrial organizations. As the procession moved along, the President was kept busy bowing and Smiling. Most of the time be was uncovered. The ladies seemed particularly anxious to get a gopd look at the President's wife and many of them were more aggressive in throwing themselves forward than : were the meu. It was u succession I 4f ovations all along he route. Up Michigan A-tnue there extended thousands aim thousands 'of specta tors. Faces 1 oked out of every win dow. Men wre to be seen on roofs of houses an. I over all Hashed tho star and stripes, while the music of many bands and the cheering of tho populace hilt d the air. When the President's carriage reached tho auditorium building a signal was gh en arid the revenue cut ter Michigan, which lay in tho harbor just 1 opposite with bunting Hying frond; every point, fired the Preside tial salute of twenty one guns. This was a signal to the crowd of 10,000 peoplo to overrun the crossing and swarm like hnts toward the stand in their eagerness to see the President. YVheii the President alighted from his carriage and made his way to the stand he and a few officials with hiin were almost pushed ' over the railing by a mob of aldermen and ward poli ticians behind, who engaged in an insane struggle for the front. The procession moved slowly on wheu suddenly theie was a crash oi timber and half a hundred people who had squeezed themselves on the reporters tables were precipitated to the plat form in a bunch. No one was seri ously injured, though the incident almost created a panic. People be hind, heard the crash and began to rush away from i the Wbmeh screamed and a of confusion lasting minutes followed. In the spot scene several mean- time the President, who had been standing, hat in hand, grew pale from the exertion of keeping his place in the jam, and the mob behind wa3 cleared back a trifle. In the street, however, it was impossible to keep a clear space for the parade. Every morneht it would be forced to stop for a time while the police were forc ing the crowds back. The regular troops got through all right, but the Second regiment was shut off for nearly five minutes. The Cleveland cavalry suffered a similar late but managed to squeeze through. When comparative order had been, restored on. the .platform Mayor Roche stepped forward and delivered an address of welcome. The President responded as f ollowsi ''It was soon, after, the election of 1884 that an old resident of your city was earnestly urging me to pay you a visit. He endeavored to meet all objections that were started and in sisted with unnecessary persistence that the invitation should be accepted. At last and after all persuasion seemed to fail he vehemently broke cut with this declaration ; 'The peo ple up where I live don't think a man 13 fit for President who has never seen Chicago ' I have i often thought of this incident since that time, and sometimes w hen I have felt that was not doin ? for the people and the public welfar3 all that might be done or all that 1 would lite to do, I jlave wondered whether things would not have gone on better if had visited Chicago. Indeed it has, I believe, been publicly stated on one or more occasions lately when the shortcomings of ' the present chief executive were under discussion that nothing better could be expected of a man who Lad never been west of some designated place or river, and this I suppose means the same that m j Chicago friend meant and involves the same accusation and conclusion If my alleged official crimes and mis demeaners are thus charitably ac counted for I shall not complain wpile I confess that the declaration of the representative of this city as l have given it is evidence of that local pride and loyalty of which your great city is a striking monument. All have heard of if they have not seen it, for every one of your people seems to have organized himself into a com riaittee of one to spread its glories abroad, and now that I am here, I feel like -saying with the Queen of Sheba, 'the half was not told me.' My amazement is greatly increased when I recall a littie recent history. jn 1833 the. town of Chicago was in corporated. Lpon the question of incorporation thirteen votes were cist, one of which was in the nega tive. We do not know the reason which actuated this citizen in his ad verse vcte, but if he wei e here today I!; believe he would be heartily ashamed of it.- Five days after in corporation as a town Chicago held its ; hrst election for town olhcers and we are told that the total vote on that occasion ws 28. We look in vain for any trace of boodlers in those days' though we are told that tho first building constructed after the-establishment of the town was a log jail. Your population in 1837 when Chicago' was incorporated as a city was 4,000. The number of its in habitants in 1871 was 300,000 or up wards, and the valuation of its prop erty probably $280,000,000. Its im mense growth and volume of business had then made it a marvel among modern cities. At this time it was visited by a Jfearful calamity without parallel in' extent and destruction, whieh threatened its promise of greatness and apparently ended it? career. In October of that year ? lire occurred which burned over aL area within ihe city of twenty-one hun dred acrea,i illed two hundred persons consumed 20,000 buildings, madi homeless 100,000 ptsople, and de slroyed pre perty of ,the value of two hundred millions of dollars. Thei. followed an exhibition of enterprise and bravely as unparalleled as tb disaster winch called them forth. Th citizens of Chicago lost no time in lamentatloT), and not for a moment t did they lose faith in the sure des tiny of their city. Almost among its commenced brines?, aahei 1 they began to mil upon us , ou.ld. Sixteen vears have passed and there has arisen here a city miny.fokl more populous, more beau tiful and more prospTjfous than you iost in 1871. Who ihave a greater. right- to be proud; and satislied than the citizens of Chicago .' You have said that the President ought to see Chicago.! I am here to see it and its hospitable, large hearted people ; but because jout city is so great and your interests so large and important I know you will allow me to suggest that I have left at home a city you ought to see and know more about. In point of fact it would be well for you to keep jour eyes closely upon it all the time. Your servants and agents are there, jj They are there to protect your intterestfv-. aha aid 3'our s-uorts to advanoo your prosper ity and well-being. lour bustling trade and your ceaseless activity 01 hand and brain will npt yield the re sults you deserve 'unless wisdom guides the policy of your, government and unless yOurmeecis ire regarded at the capital ofthe nation. It will be well for you not fo forget that in the performance of y4uirpolitical du ties with thoughtfulness and broad patriotism, there lies notnJy a safe guard against business disaster but an important obligation of citizen ship.'' j Along the line of march the masses "1 "J b7 . rr J. , ir i -iv. -1 i i. i iu il curbs; on either side, but ten thdusand Am . r- I t- en rn r a frnni t r r VII VAflra I f - " -wV.r old dehed cavalry, infantry, artillery and police, broke through all lines and over all , restraints, clung -to the carnages, and when driven from one faetefied themselves to another, dodged blows from the batons of the police, ran around and ever under the horses of the escort, and suffered everything apparently but death - or Wation than -keep (tot he line: ;t It wis thought that human possibilities in tue way ot exultant crowds naa reached their culmination at St. Louis, but it was a matter of remark among visitors that in point of num bers Chicajro had irone beyond.

Mrs. Cleveland became fatigued and Ifcft the carriage: at the Palmer House, beiDg escorted directly to her rooms, where she reited quietly for several hourst Reports that she had been taken suddenly 1 ill were circu lated but they were unfounded. Mrs. Cleveland was very tited but nothing more serious. ! It was 12.15 o'clock when the crowd began to disperse. There was such a jam that the president could not le;ave the platform for some time.' Finally, however, he; got away, faint with bunker and exertion, and was driven to the Palmar House to eat dinner and prepare for a reception in half an hour. Through some over sight pf the city authojrities there were only six policemen at i the depot this morning on the arrival of the train bearing the President, and no pro vision was made for the procession or to clear the streets. The result was con fusion and great delay. Finally Capt, Garrett, of the First Cleveland Troop, cam to the rescue. He de tailed platoons from this company to clear the way and during the entire route this fine troop, performed the duty of policemen and saved the city from disgrace. The fact has .preated a good deal of talk and many-'compli-ments have been paid to the troops, which is made up of ; wealthy young men ci the city or Cleveland. More Treuble Ahead in. Aoreheatl.

Maggie Sims, a negro girl of this place, was born deaf and dumb Sbout seventeen years ago. At an early age She was sent to an institution for the deaf and dumb where she learned to read and write, where she also learned a faith in the efficacy of prayer. She prayed day and night that her tongue might be recalled from its long banishment and that her ears might be opened to the, music of hu man voice and song. On Friday the channels of her ears were opened and the fetters of silence fell from the captive tongue. Yes, it is a fact that Maggie Sims was given the power to sDeak and hear for the hrst time in herdife, and she declares that it is but the long deferred answer of God to hei ceaseless stream cf wordless prayer.
