Sandy Hook report knots. At Long Branch and Anbury gradually increasing in strength. the Chiquita rode over the route in her toy carriage hardly big enough for a good-sized doll. Immediately following her, a big Polar bear from Bostock's pulled a little boy in a peculiarly shaped cart. Natives of various countries followed mounted on ponies, zebras, elephants and camels.

In 26 carriages, divided in three divisions, rode the executive committee, advertising committee, finance committee, the transportation committee of the day, former railway officials, rail road representatives, and invited guests. Many of the carriages bore banners, advertising one of the many roads represented at the Exposition. Two carriages filled with pretty girls in white advertised the Pennsylvania. Herbert P. Bissell rode in the parade in an automobile.

Over 150 Indians from the Indian Congress, rode the ponies that had been their means of transportation in the days when Columbus had not yet discovered America. Water buffalo tugged at the carts native to the Philippine Islands, and coolies trotted along with the jinrickshas of Japan. Advance of Transportation.

It is the one big event of the Exposition, according the the jolly railroad crowd, and the program they have prepared certainly justifies that assertjpn. At 10 o'clock this morning thee was begun a succession of unique and original events, such as even the abnormal minds of the Midway geniuses were unable to conceive on the special day, and which will continue without cessation until the very moment the lights go out.

"Something doing every minute," is not an exaggerated description of what is going forward. With fair skies and delightful conditions of temperature, the attendance promises to too the season's record. All the great railroad shops between New York and Chicago are closed, special trains are hurrying from all directions to Buffalo, and an enormous throng of strangers is pouring into the city. Add to that the number of Buf-falonians who always turn out for a big special event and you may form a conception of what the gate figures will be. Must Be a Success.

There is every reason why1 Railroad Day should be a success. It is the railroaders' day. There is no business so extensive and so closely in touch with the public of the whole country than the railroad business. Railroads reach every place or importance on the American continent and for weeks big crowd lined up outside the Amherst gates. The dials immediately began a merry click that did not let up for a moment up to noon.

Thousands were inside the grounds long before the preparations for the first event, the Railroad Day parade, were begun. Wonderful Pageant At 9:30 A. M. the wonderful pageant known as the transportation section be gan to assemble on Delaware Avenue opposite the East Amherst gate. In- side- near the Stadium, the Midway people were gathering.

There was a bustle and a hustle indicative of intense rivalry between the participants. The line was but a few minutes late In getting away, and a good-sized crowd was on hand when the blare of martial music heralded the entrance of the railroad men through the Cast Amherst gate. The crowds resemble the eager groups that pushed and squeezed on Midway day to get an early ticket from the ticket sellers. Many in the crowd were provided with souvenir tickets purchased up-town at the hotels and boarding houses and they were linod up, ready to enter as soon at ths pay-gates opened. Elmwood gate was the favorite.

There the groups of waiters are constantly receiving additions from the streets cars which are running at extra headway. All the ticket booths were manned with sellers and all the adult "stiles were open at the usual hour, and all had work to do. The crowds entered in a steady stream, making towards the Bridge of Triumph, where they could gain a good view of the parade. The same story is to be told of the East and AVest Amherst gates. At both these popular gates the admissions were greatly In excess of the normal from the first moment.

The Railroad gate had not begun to do a heavy business until after 10 o'clock and the Lincoln Parkway gaie grov3 popular later in the evening. Senator Chauncey M. Depew. as the guest a the Pan-American Exposition of the railroad men, this morning at 10:30 o'clock reviewed one of the most unique and novel transportation parades ever held. It was under the command of Grand Marshal Cherry, and if it did not move over the line of march in just exactly the order that had been planned for It.

the blame must be attached rather to the limited space for forming in. rather than to any lack of efficiency on the part of errand Marshal i Cherry and his aids. The parade was designed to illustrate 1 the modes of travel that had been in vogue "from the time of Noah's ark to the present, and a beyond." Grand Marsha! cnerry rode a horse that Fred Cummins referred to as a "pastry without Chief Red Shirt explained that this meant bald." Every Mode of Travel. 'pie- Every mode of travel was illustrated.

NEW YORK, Sept. 28. Thick fog and no wind gave a most discouraging outlook at dawn for good racing conditions. At sunrise there were no in-diations whatever of a sailing breeze, and the fog horn at Sandy Hook moaned dolefully. But the sun had not been above the horizon many minutes before the fog began to melt.

By 7 o'clock it had lifted entirely while out of the northeast came a puff of wind that, by 8 o'clock had increased to 12 knots. As the morning wore on, me sky became slightly overcast, but below the atmosphere was clear, giving a splendid view of the course. Now and then the sun would burst through the clouds and flash on the sea. Some of the lower clouds seemed to have considerable speed, and the weather- Wise came forward with the prediction that their swift movements presaged the coming of enough wind to suit either the Shamrock or the Columbia. The fog had burned away at "sunrise before the crews of the rival yachts were at work.

Captain Barr was early aboard the Columbia, and was among those who cheerfully predicted a good sailing breeze. Held the Wind. "Those things up there," he said, pointing to the fleecy clouds in the northeast, 'hold the wind, and you notice there are lots of them Just before 8 o'clock a fleet of half a hundred schooners mat had been fogbound, made sail and put to sea at a spanking gait in a way that showed the sea was smoother than on. Thursday. The crew of the Shamrock contented themselves before breakfast with wiping off deck and rails, but on the Columbia they were very active indeed, and by 1 o'clock her put jib and staysail in stops Then tney took the cover off the "mainsail and opened that up to get the dampness out of it7 It was very evident that Mr.

Morgan and Captain Barr were doing everything for an early start. The Shamrock sailors in the meantime were leisurly breakfasting aboard the Porto Rico. Afterward they went aboard the Shamrock, and busied themselves ith the work of preparation. The Shamrod; had a pretty silk flag at her masthead, the gift of the grandmother of Designer Watson, and Sir Thomas Lipton ordered it put in a place of honor. By 8:20 both crews seemed satisfied with their work and lolled about the decks of their respective vessels awaiting the order to move.

Boats Passing Out. Just before 9 o'clock the tug Flint arrived and five minutes later the Lawrence went alongside the Shamrock. Mr. Jameson, Mr. Watson and W.

Butler Duncan then went on board the Shamrock. The Columbia was first taken In tow and five minutes later she was off the point of the Hook passing out. the Shamrock following elose behind her. On board the Columbia were E. D.

Morgan, H. C. McGildowney and Herbert Leds. The Colurnbia turned the Hook and went down rapidly towards the starting plaee in tow, and without attempting to make sail. On the Shamrock, just as she got clear of the Horseshoe, the sailors began hoisting the great mainsail.

The challenger, however, did not drop her tow, as she was running against the wind. Blowing Ten Knots. The wind at the Hook was then blow- ing steadily from the northeast at 10 knot's an hour, and with indications that it would freshen. Both boats as they -event down turned the white foam under th-Mr bows in pretty shape. Both the racers started out too early to be bothered by the excursion boats.

an3 were pretty well down toward the start when from up the bay clouds of smoked heralded the approach of the pleasure fleet. Sir Thomas Lipton did not go aboard fhe Shamrock early, but stayed on board the Erin. His guests I arrived and did not leave for the start- i ing point ur.til half past 9 o'clock. It 1 was still later than that when the ex- cui sion fleet reached the Hook. It was i i fully as varied and picturesque as on i Thursday and in number of boats some- what larger.

Mannlfleent ProcesKion. In the magnificent procession which swept toward the Hook there were beautiful steam yachts flying the private signals of well-known men, big excursion steamers packed. to the rails, ar.i chartered tg boats, sailboats, revenue cutters, and every imaginable craft that could stand the weather in the i. pen sea. From every staff and other available places showed bright colored bunting, while music from man" bands mingled with the screeching of whistles.

the racing yacnts moved down to the starting point it looked, from the way they dug into the rollers, as rf the wiii was Increasing. Then, too. the haze that had prevailed about the starting point during the morning broke away to some extent and gave a much clearer view of the lightship, and the beautiful stretch of sea beyond.

There was great pent-up excitement prior to the meetings and during fhe two hours the pent-up feeling was dissipated and there was plenty of lively talk. Talk' Against Braunlein.

There was considerable talkd'n opposition to Judge Braunlein's candidacy for Surrogate. "I think I I win," said Mr. Hinson. A member of the General Committee paid: "Judge Braunlein has two years to serve as Municipal Court Judge and we are not certain of electing, a Democratic Common Council, so jwe might lose a judgeship by putting Judge Braunlein on the ticket. Tat is the only reason we do not desire Judge Braunlein at this time." Vrgre Diehl to Withdraw.

Columbia was evl- dently unable to cross the Shamrock's and was forced to come around.

The Columbia was trying to backwlnd the Shamrock again, but the man oeuver was not effective. The Sham-ro. had a fine position on the weather of the American boat, and all efforts of the Columbia to forereacli her wer unavailable. The wind was steadily increasing and by half past 11 o'clock all -con- ceded that the Shamrock was ahead. They were both on the starboard tack, sailing northeast and the Shamrock seemed to be gaining.

It was a battle royal. Both yachts had sailed four miles from the lightship, and it was nip and tuck between them with the Shamrock certainly nearer the turning boat. They had now sailed and hour and it been close work for every yard of! the course. Both boats were struggling for supremacy. The Columbia was close under the -Shamrock's lee and appeared to be reaching fnster than the chal--; lenger, but the Shamrock was still ahead.
