Clemenceau, to reports from Quarantine, was fast asleep in his stateroom when the Paris dropped anchor. But he was up bright and early this "morning to get his first more than half a century uf the New World, in-which he lived for a time as a man. The welcoming committee was up bright and early, too, for the municipal steamer Macom, w.hich was to take them down the bay, scheduled Jtp cast'off at 7 o'clock.

The welcoming committee on arriving at Quarantine aboard the Municipal steamer Maeqm, found the Tiger peering through a window on the promenade deck. The committee did not board the Paris as quickly as it expected because the Macom forgot to bring boarding ladders.
