ROCHESTER DEMOCRAT rAND CHRONICLE THURSDAY, MARCH 6, 1002. 11 ac MONSTER CROWD GREETS PRINCE HENRY OF PRUSSIA ffeventy-fire officers and that he ought to have 175. Admiral Brans and Dr. EilL "With Prince Henry on the platform stood Rear-Admiral Kobley D. Evans, Assistant Secretary of State David Jaynes Hill, formerly president of the University of Rochester; Chief Wilkie, of the United States secret service, and two other secret service officers.

Secretary HilL introduced the Rochester men to the prince, because of his former residence in this city. Ambassador Von Holleben, -who would ordinarily have performed this office, did not appear. Adjutant-General Corbin was with the party, but did not appear on the plat- INGS iS LI i form. Impossible to Carry Out the Programme That Had Been Arranged. MAYOR RECEIVED IN THE SPECIAL TRAIN! We're showing Spring: Styles now and when this store advertises spring goods, you can always tell what the year's styles mean by the date line in the paper carrying the ad.

Last year's styles are never mixed up with the new in this store. A new season at GARSONS means new clothes, new patterns, new fabrics, and improved manufacturing We profit by the mistakes of the past, and share the benefits with you by giving you better clothing, without increasing the cost, because we learn better how to do things and do them better. The new spring overcoats are marvels of beauty and style, and richness and economy $10.00 to $25.00 for modest or rich effects very short or very long in cut but stylish- There's variety in the new suits such as few stores in the land can show, and styles never were prettier. Stylish suits are always pretty. Ours at $10.00 to $25.00 are correct aad you'll not regret buying early.

But the object of this ad is to induce you to come in and see them buy if you are ready and inform yourself as to correct styles see the handsomest display we ever made. Still a lot of heavy weight suits and overcoats at clearance sale prices Requested by the Prince to Express His Appreciation to the People Prince Appears on Piatform and Bows His Acknowledgments Big Trainshed Packed, Rendering Speech-making Fruitless Police and iNational Guard Unable to Restrain the Crowd Cannons Boomed Distinguished Officials Accompanied the Royal Visitor. It was exactly 8:32 o'clock when the train pulled into the station. There were two immense engines and a dozen massive cars. The crowd had spread over the whole trainshed, pushed involuntarily by the clamoring multitude outside.

The civic reception committee was posted on a flat car provided for the purpose and a number of ladies were among the occupants of this improvised platform. Greeting of Red Fire. As the train rolled past the crowd, almost every window was occupied by members of the prince's suite or his retinue of servants. There were secret service men on. every platform.

The arrival- of the train had been heralded by the promised bomb, and immediately the salute of twenty-one guns was commenced. On the tail buildings of the city red fire was started, and a line of red fire was laid on each side of the track over which the train entered the station. The four policemen who were detailed to stand at the prince's platform were Officers Tan Auken. Reichenberger, McGraw and Eckrich. They had some of the hardest work of the whole affair in keeping the curious crowd away from the royal visitor.

The advent of the prince's car, which Was the last, was first hailed by those in the western end of the trainshed, and the cheering rolled along slowly, keeping pace with the car until the whole assemblage had commenced its. 20-minute shout. There was the necessary interchange of greetings between Assistant Secretary Hill and Mayor Rodenbeck, President Henry G. Brewster and Secretary John M. Ives, of the Chamber of Commerce, and others.

Then the prince stepped forward. A moment later he retired within the car, and was followed by Mr. Hill and the Rochester men. Mayor Rodenbeck's Welcome. Mayor Rodenbeck was first presented to the prince, who expressed his pleasure at meeting- the mayor.

Mayor Rodenbeck welcomed him to Rochester in these words: Prince Henry of Prussia: As mayor of tbe city of ItnenesW. it la my honor to add our note of welcome to swell the grand harmony of friendship which to greeted the mission of your roval highness. 6 We Join with the president of the fnited States and the citizens ia other parts of our land in welcoming yo-u as the ambassador of good will from the German emperor and tne great German nation that has given the wond so much of learning, music and art. Many of the people of Rochester are of German extraction and have not forgotten the language, history and traditions of the Fatherland while they have prnved themselves deed it was dangerous that to try to enter. As for those without passes, none was admitted for some time before 7:45.

There were thousands outside the station, many as far away as the street, where even a glimpse of the train was impossible. The crowds within took advantage of every elevation that offered itself and the few cars on the tracks at the eide were soon filled outside and inside. Their roofs were a rcass of humanity. To try to run a train into the station during this time would have meant sia-jghter. When th Train Entered.

A bomb at lie west end of the station announced the fcrrival of the special traia at the city line at The crowd immediately began to yell and cheer, and there was no cessation of this din until after the train had pulled out for the East, 24 minutes later. The fireworks at the west end of the trainshed and the illuminations on the high buildings were fired just after the first bomb went into the air. The train entered the station through a lane of Ted fire. The Fifty -fourth Regiment band was playing when the headlight of the first engine showed at the western end of the station. The train scarcely moved and the guards that had been sent to ehove the people away from the track found difficulty in clearing the way.

Prince Henry was seen through the large windows of his private car, the Columbia, in which President McKinley and Mrs. Mclvmlcy made the trip to the and the crowd yelled louder than ever. The prince appeared on the rear platform soon after the tram stopped and then the fun began for those who were in the midst or -the ma.ss in die trainshed. The prince looked at the crowd and the crowd cheered and looked at the prince. There was nothing else doing for the people, except constant surging, until matters became so interesting that the cause of their ail being there was forgotten for a time, and the center of attraction became tin? battle between the guards and the mob.

The fight continued until the train pulled cut and even those within the ropes soon found themselves in the midst of the surging mass. Some the ladies and gentlemen having badges for the flat car had great diificulty to keep from being crushed when they passed through the crowd earlier in the evening. Captain McDerimxt that he had 0 13 I I Betvreen aisles of crimson flame, the air with the reverberations of the cx-tited cheers of thousands and tue thundering of a cannonade mingling with the high-pitched voices, the pfdal train bearing his rural highness, Admiral Prince Henry of Prussia, glided into the New York Central train shed at 8:32 o'clock last night. Teutonic "hodis" and free and independent cheers arose from thousands of throats, echoing back and forth in the murky heights of the immense shed and combining la a vast flood of sound that rose and fell and eddied like the roar of a cataract. The imperial Ilohenzollern stood on the rear piatform, a broad smile playing over tis handsome features, and bowed pleased acknowledgments to the uproarious grcat-Ils.

Presentations were hastily made, gifis were quickly transferred from the g-ivers to the prince, and minutes of noisy demonstration chased each other around ft clock. Then the two mammoth engines Borced, rockets soared upward, red fire Sized and the cheering was lost for a in the flash and crasih of the pyrotechnics, while the train carrying his royal clock-like regularity with which he nodded lent this suggestion to the onlooker's impression. The prince's bow, characteristic of iha German military man, consists in placing the right hand in the position for a salute, and then moving' it slightly and nodding the head at the same time. It was conventional, and in the good-natured crowd there was some who found it a little amusing. Nothing But Noise.

At first those in the vicinity of the prince's car remained silent, expecting those in the rear and those outside to do the came, so that the prince might speak. Put nothing of the sort occurred. The cheers and shouts were kept up with ai-sbating energy and the prince continued to signify his pleasure. "Three cheers for Prince Henry!" yelled one. "Say something.

Heine cried an irreverent person, to hom the prince replied that the noise was so great that he could not make himself heard. "Get him a megaphone!" yelled another. But it was of no avail.
