Cleveland, 0., Sept. 12.—Patriotism's glorious festival came to its splendid climax with Wednesday's smiling midday, when 27,000 or more of the nation's heroes paraded past hun dreds of thousands of cheering - patri ots. In all the magnificent demon stration there was no flaw. Brave hearts were sunny with the warmth of Cleveland's welcome and the sweetness of heroic comradeships renewed. Withered legs bore aged heroes over the cobblestones, strong GEN. DANIEL E.

As it passeil through the crowded streets to the crowning glory of the court of honor and its reviewing stand, flanked by the living picture of school children, the heroes of 40 years ago grew young and realized that they had got what they fought for, a nation of patriots. Commander-in-Chief llassieur and the staff mounted and in carriages, rode over the line of march ahead of the army of veterans, and reached the reviewing stand erected for the st.ricken president at 10:55. Five minutes later the head of the great procession of heroism swung into the court of honor, and the glory of the day was begun. Till late in the after noon the marching hosts continued to pass through the court of honor. The parade is called already the greatest in the history of the nation, with its triumph of 40 glorious years. In the stand with the commander in-chief were his staff, Adjt. (Jen. F. M.

Upperman, of Wisconsin, marched with the Wisconsin soldiers until he reached the reviewing stand, and then entered it, ;>s did many of the other prominent veterans. As the tattered battleflags of each sate passed the reviewing stand those on it arose and stood uncovered while the surrounding thousands cheered. As the marching thousands contin ued to pass, those on the commander in-chief's stand realized that they were witnessing the greatest. G. A. K. parade in the splendid history of the organization of the heroes. It was almost 1 o'clock before the head of Ohio's army of veterans reached the stand. Senator Hanna had left, the stand but a few minutes before, walked through Bond street to Euclid avenue, and taken his place with Me morial post, of Cleveland, of which he is a member, marching past with his comrades. Gen. Barnett did the same, and there was a round of cheers and applause a st inarched past.

The music, voicing tne solemn joy of the people at God's mercy was impressively effective. Where before there had been the- mu sic t>f war there was to-day the music oi thankful praise that echoed the words on all lips and in all hearts. As the Custer cannon from West Virginia passed the reviewing stand it was tired and a delightful touch of realism given the para dr. The can non had been loaded and fired as the gun crew of veterans that manned it marched without delaying the proces sion a minute. One of the veterans who carried a musket scarcely ten feet behind the cannon got the full force of the concussion and fell in the street. Before lie could get up r. detachment of ambulance corps men had bundled him onto a stretcher. But the veteran was unhurt. He wrenched himself tree from the eager ambulance men, picked up his fallen musket and rejoined bis command at a trot, while the crowd cheered and cheered. At the head of the Columbus Iwidy of veterans. Gov. Nash and Candidate Kilbourne, republican and democrat, marched side by side, a remarkable illustration of the extent to which all, save that for which the Grand Army stands, was forgotten in the inspired festival of patriotism. They were cheered to the echo. Ohio's host was so great that it took about an hour to pass the reviewing stand. Grand old Pennsylvania took 20 min utes to march her veterans past. There was another ringing cheer as President McKinley's post, Canton, No. 25, marched past, the faces of its veterans still a little drawn as they thought of the man all would have loved to see in the reviewing stand, but there was joy at the president's escape, as well as regret in their faces. Ohio's army brought up the re-ar of the procession, the last of the state's veterans passing the reviewing stand at 1:53 p. m. "It has been a great and glorious day for the Grand Army and for the country. The parade was as nearly perfect as a parade of such an im mense body of men who have not been drilled soldiers for so many years could be expected to be." said Commander-in-Chief liassieur as lie turned, after saluting the last of the long line of comrades who had marched past him. lie had stood bare headed at the front of the stand throughout all of the almost three hours that it took for the parade to pass. Members of his staff said that if was the greatest parade in the his tory of the Grand Army of the repub lic. The following meeting's were held in the afternoon: U. S.

Ad dresses of welcome and greeting were made by Gov. Nash and Mayor John son. They were responded to by the heads of the different departments. In the evening at Gray's armory there was a camp fire of colored troops. They were addressed by prominent men. Cleveland. Sept. 13. —The opening session of the* G. A. U. encampment, was called to order Thursday morn ing in the opera house. There were more tii'n 1,300 delegates present. This was the largest attendance of any session of the G. A. It. held in years. The reading of Commander in-Chief Rassieur's report took up al most every minute of the first session. Gen. Rassieur's arraignment of Pen sion Commissioner Evans was very severe. Occasions where the pension commissioner is said to have been de relict in his duty were mentioned and dwelt upon at great length. A ma jority of those present seemed to be in sympathy with his utterances, espe cially after he explained that bis at tack was not on President McKinley, nor his administration, but against the acts of one man, Henry Clay Ev ans. Gen. Uassieur was frequently interrupted by (applause. At the close of Rassieur's address Senator James R. Ilawley, of Connec ticut, was called to the platform. Sen ator Ilawley is the oldest past grand officer at the encampment. Senator Ilawley commended Commander llas sieur's address, especially that part referring to Commissioner Evans, lie quoted instances of alleged injustice which had come under his personal attention, one or two of which he had succeeded in having congress rec tify. After sending a message to Presi dent McKinley congratulating- him on his escape from death at the hands of a would-be assassin the convention recessed until 3 p. in. The afternoon session was devoted to discussion of («en. Itassieur's re port and pension matters in general. The commander-in-chief's report was referred to a committee which will report thereon to-day. The report of the adjutant general, F. M. Sterrett, showed that the total membership .Mine 30. 1001, was 209,- 507, in 6,078 posts. The gains during the last year were 30,010 and the losses 37.172—by death 8.106, and by suspension 16,202. The number dropped from the rolls having been previously suspended was 7,722. The number on the rolls June 30, 1001, in cluding 25,550 suspended, was 205,057. Denver is in the lead for the next encampment. Detroit is making a fight, but the veterans think it is too near Cleveland to succeed this city as a place of holding the 1002 encamp ment. The Denver people have presented satisfactory assurances that the rates will be "right" and the influence which voted the encampment to Den ver last year is likely to land it this year. The convention of the Woman's Re lief Corps was called to order Thurs day by the national president, Mary I„ Carr, at the First M. E. church. The first session was devoted to or ganization and the roports of com mittees. The president, in opening, exhorted the convention to thanksgiv ing in behalf of the good news from the president's bedside, and rising to their feet the delegations from every state in the Union joined in singig tin- Doxology.

R. came to a sudden close Friday. Officers were elected and all other business was referred to the incoming council of administration. This includes the minority and majority reports of the committee on pensions which prom ised to provide the sensational light of the encampment. Judge Ell Torrance, of Minneapolis, was elected national commander-in chief of the (i. A. U. His only opponent was Gen. Thomas J. Stewart, of Pennsylvania. The vote was 230 for Stewart to 476 for Tor ra nee. But the vote was never announced. The Stewart men saw they were beat en and Gen. Wagner, of Philadelphia, moved that the election be made unanimous. This was done at once. Gen. Daniel E. Sickles, of New York, withdrew from the race before the nominations were made and as soon as the encampment, decided to refer the pension matttfr to the coun cil of administration. J. L. Smith, of Cleveland, was beat en for senior vice commander before the convention met, and knew it. However, he was determined to make •iie fight. Postmaster Dewstoe, of Cleveland, placed him in nomination. Against Smith, Capt. John MeElroy, ctitor of the National Tribune, of Washington, was named. Smith's name was withdrawn and Capt. MeEl roy elected senior viee-cominander-in ehief. For junior vice commander Thistle wood, of Illinois, nominated James O'Donnell, of that state. Edgar Al len, of Virginia, nominated James P. Averill. of Georgia. O'Donnell won, 352 to 315. Committees were appointed to carry greetings to the W. R. C. and kindred conventions. IV. W. It. Thrall, of Cincinnati, was elected surgeon general by acclama tion. Rev. L. M. Boyle, of Pennsylvania, was elected chaplain-in-ehief. The council of administration was then selected, one man from each de partment. Resolutions were adopted thanking the city of Cleveland, the manage ment of the opera house and the railroads for favors. The entire dele gate body then rose anil sang "Near er My God to Thee." A touching in vocation was delivered by Chaplain Stewart and the encampment for 1901 was over. The Woman's Relief Corps elected Mrs. Calista .Tones, of Vermont, as president. There were no other can didates. The ladies of the G. A. R. elected Mrs. Anna Wall, of Lawrence, Kan., as president. IZchiili of I'piirj'N Work.

Tliry llcrrlvril an Ovation All Along tile Line-Naval lt«nerven I'artl rlputed Camp Fires and Oilier of Im portance Held. Cleveland, 0., Sept. 11.—Never at any encampment was there such u naval parade as the one at tlr s en eampment Tuesday morning. At no other encampment was such honor paid the men who served under Far ragut, Porter, Footo and the other men who led great fleets to victory. And when the line was broken at the end of the parade, the veteran tars could no longer restrain the cheers that they had been longing to give, and they took off their hats and waved them and cried, "Ohio! Ohio! Cleveland! Cleveland!" The brave men who manned the union's wooden walls walked with "the gait of old men, but their faces showed light hearts and Ihe enthu siasm of youth. In the sainc line were the young sailors, the volun teers of only yesterday, and per chance the volunteers of a near to morrow. They were the boys from the Hawk and Yantie, with springy gait and light face of youth. Then there were the crews of the Michigan and Fes seiulen, tars with the rolling gait that one expects to see in a seaman. (Brown - faced, broad - shouldered, strong-armed and thick-chested boys and men they were, and the crowds that lined the streets cheered them. Veterans of the army paid tribute to the veterans of the sea, acting as iheir escort in the parade. The "Fighting Seventh Ohio," and the First Ohio volunteer light artillery were in line. At the head of this fa mous regiment of artillery was Gen. James Barnett, of Cleveland, the regi ment's old commander, on foot with his boys. Commander-in-Chief Leo Itassietir, Gen. It. A.

Following this division rame a squad of mounted police tinder Lieut. Johnson, the grand marshal, and staff. In the second division under Lieut. Col. W. H. Pond, were the Fifth and Ninth regiments, 0. N. G., and Bat tery A with four guns. Commodore F. E. Haskins was mar shal of the third division, composed entirely of the National Association of Naval Veterans. About 50C marched. The ex-prisoners of war formed the fourth division, of which Col. C. C. Shanklin was marshal. They were 500 strong. In the fifth division, Capt. Geo. It. McKay, marshal, were the Spanish war veterans, and Twentieth army corps. The First Ohio volunteer light artillery, 400 men. Gen. .lames Bar met t's old regiment, marched in this division. The Cleveland Grays. Scots Guards and Knights of St. John formed the sixth and last, division, under Lieut. C. L. Barridge.

Another camp fire was held at Turn Hall, and a reception of the Woman's Relief Corps to Commander in-Chief Itasseur and other national officers of the Grand Army was held at the Chamber of Commerce. Mailt Tillman Fxpelled from Senate. Baltimore. Md., Sept. 11.—At a largely attended meeting here to-day in Bethal A. M. E. church, presided over by Bishop .lames A. Handy, reso tions were adopted declaring that the attempted assassination of President McKinley was"the fruition of the feed of tolerance of crimes too abhor rent and memorable against the na tive citizens as represented by Park er, the probable preserver of the life of our president." The resolutions further say that "since Senator Ben jamin Tillman is by his own avowels am abettor of murder and rapine it is hereby requested that he be expelled from the United States senate, that the lives of our public officers be not further menaced by the monstrocity of his presence, the perverseness of his teachings and example."

"He is a queer char acter," continued the conductor when he had received a negative reply, "and passengers often ask who he is, be cause of the frequency of his being seen on the road and his strange ap pearance. I have seen him many times at different points on the road and have heard that lie is a locoed d'mlividua] who thinks that he is em ployed as a sort of inspector of way, or track walker, by the Southern Pa cific company and that he has to walk continually over the road from Deming to Yuma and back, and he sometimes gets as far down as El Paso, but I had never an opportunity to speak to him until a few days ago. I then asked him several questions regarding his past life and his imag inary job. "Jle is >a tall, slim man, and wears his hair, wliie.h is streaked with gray, long, and liis face is never clean.

He said he also had two sis ters living in New York. He seems to be well educated and writes an excellent hand. His lunacy does not manifest itself in his conversation, but his appearance betrays it, .and the fact that he travels afoot over that long, dry stretch of railroad track through the summer and win ter and has 'been doing so for ID years, proves that he is mentally un balanced. "Trainmen have asked him to ride, but he says he could not attend to his duties if he rode. I believe that if he should find something wrong with the track he would flag any train that might be approcliing the dangerous spot, and thus prevent & wreck, but if such a case has ever happened I have never heard of it.

"When do you dig potatoes?" returned the subdued man in an effort to become friendly.
