I THE DROWNING OF DR. OLNEY. SCHROEDER NO LONGER DENIES SAFE AND SOUND IN CHICAGO. 1 India Rugs. cision.

Although carriages are at a premium of 410 por hour enouch vehicles were roady to carry tho travelers to their hotol. At tho Vermont everything was in readiness, Tho Eaole pnrty had a passing view of tho exposition grounds as they entered ttn city. The administration building, with it towering dome, iirt came into view, then the panorama unfolded. In a Hood of gold sunshine the day resembled June moro than Octobor. It was plain as tho new comers crossed the Michigan Central bridgo ovor tho midway plaisance that whoever Wanted to visit the fair wouiil havo to fight his way.

Conoy Island's bowery on July 4 was never more crowded. A wndgo of. humanity jammed itseK ovor the entire area. Toward noon it lookod as if all the grounds and buildings would bo filled to overflowing. Cable cars, elevated cars and scorns of trains on the Illinois Central were so overcrowded that people abandoned in despair any attempt to board thorn.

The Brooklyn visitors necepted the situation philosophically. Superintendent Campbell, Mr. Lyman Green "and other sacacious" counselors expressed as their best judgment that a concerted movement on the far grounds would bo impossible. Manager Kockwood and his corps of efficient assistants quite agreed with this view and the party made no attempt to approach upon space already crowded. Individuals and groups braved tho rush of storming tens of thousands, and by afternoon Brooklyn was pretty well represented inside tho vast in closure.

For once, however, thero was no talk of Brooklyn heights calling Chicago bluffs. Chicago, intent on making tho most of her day, surpassed the mildest predictions of her enthusiastic citizens To day the Brooklyn neo ple are blended into tho Chicago multitude. To morrow, when the outpouring of Western jubliation has suhsided, opportunity to see the exposition will bo improved. Not a single mishap to any of tho Brooklyn excursionists has occurred. All are in fair health and bu03 ant spirits.

Every participant in tho excursion is cordial in praise of the courtesies extended and the comforts and luxuries provided. The Eagle bureau is this afternoon a center of attraction not only for the Eagle excursionists but scores of Brooklyn visitors who arrived hero on other trains. A Tammaiir Sympathizer "Who Showed Eirooklynite (Cow to Do It. Mr. Peter Moore of 178 Avenue left his New York homo yesterday afternoon and crossed tho East river.

A trolley car carried him to the corner of Gatos and Central aveuues, whore hia married sister lives. Tho story of his subsequent doings was explained to Justice Goettig, in the Gate3 avenuo police court, this morning. 'Wore you drunk, Moore?" asked tho court. "I was just a little, your honor." "How did it happen?" "Mo amd me brothor in law went out electioneering, and well, your honor knows enouch of politics to understand that when a man begins that sort of thing it's difficult to soe where he'll bring up." "What ticket wor you electioneering for, the prohibition?" "Oh, no; we're Tammany men ovor our way." "You can go home, if you like. Next timo: don't leave your own bailiwick to electioneer.

Wo can run thoso sort of things well enough ourselves over this way." 11 IS ARREST MAY BE A CLEW To Some of tbe Many Robberies Com. tied on L.oiST Island, Constable Tiodoman of Hempstead arrested a suspicious looking man who drove a wagon loaded with a promiscuous lot of goods through that village yesterday. The man. refused to give an account of himself or to toll his name. He was driving westward.

Tho wagon contained a lot of harness, carriage cushions, blankets, clothing and store articles. Smith Williams, a farmer of East Williston, was in town and identified somo of the articles in the wagoD as his property. The man said he had been down to Amity vilio. He will be examined before Justice Clowes to day on a charge of burglary. The prisoner is a heavily built, middle aged man and looks like a desperate character.

TWO SKULLS FEACTUEED A Dummy Crashes Into a Crowded "Wagon. The Members of the Albert Schnibbe Association Sent Flying in All Directions of Them Badly Injured Thero Will Be Damage Suits in Consequence. Tho Albert Schnibbe association, a Fourteenth ward club, held its annual outing yesterday, and the eighteen members who attended had a very narrow escape from being killed by a dummy train that runs along Myrtle avenue, ibatwoen tho city lino and Glendale. The merrymakers loft Schnibbe's snloo, North Eleventh and Berry streets, early yesterday morning, in a large four horse truck. They arrived at Glendale shortly before 10 o'clock, and spent tho day ndulging in various sports.

At 7 o'clock th start for home was mad. and tho truck was driven down Myrtle avenue on the dummy track. Everybody was in good spirits, and no danger was feared. At the Glendale entrance to the Cypress Hill cemetery, a dummy train came along at a rapid rate, and the driver of the truck did not see the train until it was almost upon him. He endeavored to turn out of tho track, but before ho could do so, the dummy was upon them, and knocked the truck into kiRdling wood, while the men were tossed high into the air, and fell over one another on the pavement.

One of the party who was only slightly hurt, ran halt a mile to a saloon, where he called up St. Catherine's hospital, and asked that an ambulance be sent Borore aid arrived, however, most of the I038 seriously injured, had walked home, and only two men were taken to the hospital. These two were John Simpson and Charles Kessler, both of whom are suffering from fractured skulls. Tho othera who were hurt, all of whom live in the Fourteenth ward, are: Robert Porter, left arm broken. Chris.

Sutcea, arm and logs cut. Edward Flannogon, head cut. Timothy Murphy, arms and left leg cut and bruised. Charles Murphy, ugly cuts on the left arm and head. Thomas Pagan, head (jnarles uesuur, arms and right loot Druised and internal injuries.

Mr. Schnibbe was seen at his placo of business this morning and he emphatically stated that the fault for the accident rested entirely with the engineer on the dummy train, who railed to ring the bell or give any warning what soever until he was only a few foet behind the truck. It is probable that a number of damage suits will result from the accident. At St. Catharine's hospital it was said that Henry Gusseney, whose skull was fractured.

would die. jonn Simpson win prooamy re cover. A MARKED IMPROVEMENT Observed by ITlr. Kinket lit the St. Jolin laud and JFlacbtmla Institutions.

"I am happy to be able to say that I find a marked improvement in the condition of affairs at St. Johnland and Flatbush," said Supervisor at Largo Kinkel to an Eaole reporter this morn ing. "This improvement is particularly notice able in tne matter or supplies. 1 nave Deen endeavoring to give my personal attention to this service and I am reasonably capable of judging accurately tho character of any change smoo tho advent of the new commissioner. The llour furnished is not less than 75 per cent, better than that supplied heretofore andnot much less can be said of tho coffee, tea and other ariioles.

It was the intention of Commissioner Simis to have engaged tho services of experts for tho purpose of thoroughly satisfying himself that tho contractors were living up to their agree ments witn tne oounty, Dut tne necessity tor this has been obviated by the statements made by tho supervisor at largo. WHERE IS AXEL DB ESTELLE. A Tall and Willowy tJirl from Sweden Wants IKlim. If Axel De Eatelle, captain or mate or able bodied seaman, erasing around New York har bor, knows what is good for him, he will call at 298 Fifth street without further delay. Hanna Hedlund of Hudizksvall, Sweden, is there and wants to see him.

Axel left Hudizksvall four years ago, and ho doesn't know what a tall, willowy graceful brunette Hanna has become. Beside she brings news from tne sisters and an tne folks at home. But Hanna did not bring Alex's address so sho advertised for him in a newspaper. Hanna has only como ana speaks no jungusu, sne blushed to hoi' eyebrows wnen a reporter asked her if Axol was her lover and she shook her head in' bashful disclaimer. Tho interpreter translated a voluble now of Swedish into a state ment that Miss Hodlung only knew De Estelle's sisters, was on her way from New York to the West and so wanted to see him.

SET FIRE TO THE HOUSE, SCRE ENOUGH, The Lamp Was Upset Before a Police man Could Prevent IL A man who was very much excited ran Into tho Fulton street police station a few minutes after 9 o'clock last night and asked Sergeant Harkins to send a policeman around to the resi dence of Mrs. Mary Cook at 66 Middagh street. "They are quarreling there," ho said, referring to the occupants, "and I'm afraid they'll upst the kerosene lamp and sot Are to the house. Tho sergeant had not time to send upstairs for a reservo officer bef ora a fire alarm was sont in from Middagh straet. Subsequent inquiry developed the fact that the lamp had been upset, sure enough, and that a fire reiultod.

But the flames were extinguished before much damage was done. It transpired that Mrs. Cook had quarreled with her son in law, Will iam J. (Joopor. BO A II OF The board of aldermen cnvenedat2 this after noon, with President Pickering in the chair.

A poorly but neatly clad woman callod at tho Adams street station this morning with her two children, aged respectively 2 and 4 years. She said that she was starving and that her children had only a few crusts since Saturday. Sergeant Donlon became interested in her story and, convinced that she was not an impostor, sent out for food for iicr. In tho meantime she told her story in more detail. She gave her name as Mrs.

Haggar, and said her husband was a truck driver. Ho hnd deserted her, and for a long time had refused to contribute to support ot herself or the children.

ONE MOKE CONFERENCE Many Diverse Political Elements in One Meeting. The Committee of One Hundred Has Invited Republicans, mugwumps, German Democrats and Citizens' Union Jlen to Talk Things Over To night A Split Probable. The activity of independent politics will revive to night, either for a last final splutter before extinction or possibly as tho beginning of a movement to nominate an independent candidate for mayor. The conference committee of ten, appointed by the committee of 103, will meet at Conservatory hall, Fulton street and Bedford avenue, and havo invited conference committees from the Republican general oomralttee, the Young Republican club, the Young Men's Democratic club, the Brooklyn Democratic club, the United German Democracy and the Citizens' union. The meeting promises to emphasize the cleavage between the Republican and independents which became sufficiently obvious at the last meeting of the committee 109.

The committee from the Citizens' union will ask tho conference to indorse some special candidate for mayor. They will be supported by the delegates from tho Young Men's Democratic club, the German Democracy and perhaps the Brooklyn Democratic club On the other side will bo Benjamin Estes, Jamos McKeen and Andrew D. Baird of the committee of 100; Messrs. Buttling, B. F.

Blair and Ray of tho Republican committee, and William H. Williams of the Young Republican club and probably the other delegates from that organization. Tne discussion promises to be too interesting to be heard by reporters and the committee may meet in executive session. While this is going on the general committee of the Citizens' union will be in session in the new headquarters of the union in the Germania building. This is tho body which wants an independent nomination whether or no.

BRAHAMS, Help That He Will Accept the Eepublican Nomination. THOUGH HE DECLINES TO COMMIT HIMSELF. flitherto He lias Been FIntfooted. and Emphatic in His Refusal to Be Considered as Possibility A Significant Chanse in His Attitude What Ho Fays AboHt Independent Movements Counselor Elliott Makes a Positive Declaration. "Ex Mayor Frederick A.

Schroeder will receive the Eepublican nomination for the mayoralty," said George F. Elliott to day. "I am nbsolutoly Bure he will be the choice of tho regular Republicans and also that he will accept. You can quoto mo as making both statements Ex Mayor Schroedor was seen this morning. Ho appeared to bo in indifferent health.

Ho received his visitor with characteristic courtesy. "It has been stated," said the reporter, "that in tho event of the Kepubliean nomination fpr tho mayoralty boing tendered to you, you would probably accept it. Is this roaliy so?" "I prefer not to discuss the question," was the reply. "Will you say whether you would docline tho nomination then," purauod tho Eaole man. "Again I must bo excused from speaking," answered tho ex mayor in a tone that suggested a predetermined line of conduct as far as interviews wore concerned.

"Does that refusal to talk mean that in view of party needs or possibilities you do not desire to put yourself on record in any way?" Mr. Schroeder smiled as he answered: "I must still remain silent in spito of your persistency. "Four years ago," said the reporter, "you told me in tho most definite terms that you would not run for mayor under any consideration. Two years later I obtained from you another assurance of the same natnre, couched in practically tbe same language. Will you not in the present instance repeat your resolve not to accept tho "No, sir, I will not.

I simply do not desire to be interviewed on the matter." "Do reasons now exist, which did not have a boing. when you came out flatfooted on the two occasions named 'That is also a matter that I will not discuss. I am content to let matters rest as they are. One thing I will say and that is that I have not authorized anyono to speak for me on tho subject, either ono way or tho other." Mr. Schroeder then diverged in the direction of an entertaining talk on the independent movement in this city.

He said among other things: I do not think that the times are now or over will be ripe for a so called independent movement in Brooklyn that is to say, a movement which shall have within itself the elements of success. The Seth Low administration was in actuality the fruits of honest and. combined work on the partof Republicans, nothing more or less. For once those members of the party whosa apathy is moro marked than their Bopubli canism, threw off thoir sluggishness and workod. The results you know.

Of course, a good many of the people who are guided by impuiso in the matter of party affairs, were with the Republicans at that timo, but for all that Mr. Low was a Kepubliean mayor." 'Then again an independent movement in a municipality can never rise to tho dignity of a party. Parties are born of national sentiments, not local jealousies. So called independents, honest as they iaay bo, can in Brooklyn, at least, never be moro than a faction, and a faction very much in tho minority, as expensive to its adherents as it is unsatisfactory generally. Look at the Woodward and allied movements.

The expenditure in their campaigns was huge as compared with tho votes polled, and not a Bingle vote was bought nt that. I venture to say this, that a man who has once burned his fingers playing with independent fire Is always chary of handling it thereafter. "There is one phase of thi independent mat tor that should havo added stress laid on it. As I said bofore, in tho narrow limits of a munic ipality there can bo but two large parties. It follows, then, that a third ticket weakens tho chances of the regular nominees.

Affairs In Brooklyn go to show that the great pro portion or so cauod lnaopenaont voters are drawn from tho Republican party. The Democratic loss is numericall small. In view of the foot that an independent movement has not the slightest show of success, and that thoso persons who honestly desire roform are the natural allies of tho Republican party, it follows that indopendent3 are or should be morally pledged to support tho Republican ticket." "You are evidently more Interested 1 local affairs this year than in preceding ye ars, are you not, Mr. Sohroeder?" ventured tho reporter. Tho ex mayor responded with a smilo.

"No," he said, "you can't bring me round to talk about myself in that way. What I havo said has been my conviction now and always. Let Republicans and so called independent Republicans take my words to heart. NATHAX WILL SUPFOBT THE REGULAHS. Ernst Nathan was tho subjeot of considerable discussion in political circles to day and all because of his intention to support the Republican ticket that the regulars will nominate in a few days.

It was thought by many a week ago that he would attempt the election of a super visor In the Twenty third ward, but his strength is evidontly smnll for so weighty a task. Nathan is said to have declared himself without any invitation from Worth or the men who are associated with him in leading the party. They stand on opposito sides of the house and over tures nave not Deen made ono way or tho other. In connection with Sir. Nathan's latest attitude comes tho story that David A.

Baldwin, his tried and trusted lieutenant, is playing for tho recognition of the regulars. Ho applied for tho appointment of a few inspectors of election recently and his request was granted, not so much for Baldwin as tho fact that the men named were agreeable to the people who held the appointing power. William J. Buttling will be the Republican candidate for sheriff. All the straws point that way and he has no aversion to the nomination.

Many of the best men in the party are out for him and feel that ho will infuse into tho campaign an activity and straightforwardness that will help tho ticket. Sinoo his eloetion as chairman of tho general committee he has made scores of friends who want to see a young man in the sheriff's office. Another young man on whom the mantle of senator is sure to fall, ia William H. Reynolds. There is no question about his strength with tho people as well as his friendship for thoso who will hnve the votes in the convention.

Reynolds has been sought for the oihee and appears to bo not only the most widely known but tho most popular man in the district. Ho has also the qualifi cations for tho office. As an executive, his im mense business interests, which are entirely in Brooklyn, speak loudly in his favor. In addi tion to this, he is a lawyer, having graduated irom tne university oi jNew iorK. Robert M.

Johnson will be the state commit teemen from tho Sixth district. The question or succession is to Resettled co nignt and small, who seemed assured of it at the state conven tion, is now believed to stand not the ghost of a show. A week or two ago he was opposed to Wilson; to day he is hot for him. His change ot front will serve him as far as his quest for tho state committee is concerned.

Eomance or Mystery Back of the Onset Bay Case. HIS FRIENDSHIP FOR MISS GDSSIE WHITE, She Is a Materializing Medlnm of Independent Means and Mature Years Why It Was Deemed Advisable to Have Her Leave a State Street Boarding ITonse The Veterinary Surgeon Followed Her to Massachusetts Aa Affair Which Affords Room for Speculation. Thero is a romance or a mystery or possibly a tragedy back of the drowning of Dr. Charles Theodore Olnoy of 406 State Btreet, at Onset bay Saturday night. Dr.

Olnoy said he was going swimming Saturday evening. Yesterday his body wus pullod out of tho water with all of the clothes. Including his boots, on and a big cut under the left ear, which the Massachusetts coronor is investigating. Dr. Olney's death was reported by his particular friend, Miss Gussie White, a plump and mature woman of 40, who calls herself a materializing medium.

Miss White says she was nervous about tho doctor after he went out, and started for the shore to look ror him. Sho heard him screaming in the darkness and started out in a boat to rescue him. Sho found Olney struagling In the water and tried to pull him "in, tut the boat capsized in tho attempt. She clung to the boat and screamed for help, and tne doctor drowned. Tho friendship between Dr.

Olney and Miss White began in this city last February. Miss White came to Brooklyn last December and took a room at tho boarding house 490 State street. In February Dr. Olney entered the same boarding house. Ho said he was a veterinary surgeon, but didn't like the business and was employed as a collector by an electric light company.

Dr. Olney was a good looking fellow of 40, with brown hair and board, was a good singer. polite to the women and soon became very popular with everybody the nouse, includ ing Miss Wbite. As Miss White rose in Dr. Olney favor sho fell in that of the landlady and the other carders.

Alonpiu April or May there camo a good chance to fill Miss White's room with somebody else and tho landlady availed herself of it. Miss Wbite want away. She returned after a few weeks and, aoeording to the landlady, asked for a room for two weeks un 11 she should go to the country. The two weeks lengthened to two months. During this time, the landlady says Dr.

Olney became intemperate. Miss White was a woman who always used wines or liquors, having, as she said, been accustomed to them In her father's house. A committee of one at the boarding house decided that Miss White's influence over tho doctor was bad, and she was asked to go. There was a scene and vacant room at the boarding house, About four weeks ago Dr. Olney said ho was going to Boston to visit his family.

A fortnight ago he wrote his landlady that he was coming back soon to practice his profession. The next nows was of the doctor's death and Miss White's attempt at rescue. They had been boarding at tho cottage of Mrs. Bliss, a materializing modium at Onset Bay, for a week or more. Miss White is a stout, plain looking woman with a rathor sharp face, black eyes and short black curly hair.

She attended public meetings of spiritualists in the city, but she gave no public seances. She had an independent incomo, her family living in New lork state and being well to do. Her father has died since she left Brooklyn. Dr. Olnoy is a Harvard graduate.

He was born in Taunton, and was popular fellow there in his youth. When "Pinafore" was new ho sang Ralph in an amateur performance in a way that greatly delighted the Taunton girls. Littlo is known about him ia Brook lyn outside his boarding house. Both the Cit izens and Edison electric lieht companies say he was never employed by them. C.NDER THE INFLUENCE OF MORPHINE.

A.HeIpIes Invalid Walks Seven Slocks Stressed Only iu a IViglit Kobe. Three men were standing at the corner of Bedford and Putnam avenues at 2 o'clock yesterday morning when a woman, dressed only in a white night robe and with dishevelled hair hanging around hor shoulders, appeared suddenly before them. She stared at them for a moment as if trying to rec ognize them and then walked on. Tho men had not heard any footsteps and were badly scared, ust then a doctor returning from a late call came along and the men told him what they had seen. Diagnosing the ease as one of somnambulism, he followed the retreat ing woman until he saw her saleiy In tho care of a policeman.

Then he offered his services. The woman was not asleep, but she seemed totally unconscious of hor surroundings. She said she was tho wife of Police Sergeant Alexander Barr of the Fourteenth precinct, but she could not tell where she livod. Mrs. Barr has been an invalid for several years.

Twelve montns ago she consulted Dr. Byrno of Harrison and Clinton streets, and he told her that she had como to him too Into. He performed what he described to a reporter for the Eaqlk as a palliative operation and for a few months sho was greatly Im proved. Lateljr the disease has again gained neaiiway ana ior tne past coupie oi montns Mrs. Barr has hardly been able to get about.

Sergeant Barr this morning, in speaking of hia wife's experiences, said that he could not un derstand where sue got tne strengtn to wait seven blocks from ner home, 442 Monroe street, to Bedford and Putnam avenuos. Dr. Byrne attributes her ability to walk to a morphine injection administered just bofore she went to bed. MILK PUNCHES FOR TRAMPS. Wbat tbe Police round in an Attic of an Old Building.

Jame3 Jullivan, who claimed a residence at 99 Sanford street, and Charles MlUor, who was unable or unwilling to givo his address, two typieal tramps, were arraigned before Justice' Haggerty in the Myrtle avenuo police court this morning. They were arrested last night in the attic of the oid dilapidadeu building at the corner of Quincy street and Classon avenue, which has for a long time been tho resort oi men ot tms class.

Both men were lying unclothed on a lot of rags when they were arrested.

They had drawn up the ladder by which they reached the attic from the upper floor of the building and the officers had to hunt up anocner one Detore tney couia arrest them. They had a new tin can partly filled with beer, and a numoer ot empty milt oottles were also found on the floor, together with a bottle, which had evidently contained whisky. Apparently they had been enjoying milK punches and beer before they went to sleep. Miller was sentenced to the penitentiarv for four months, and Sullivan will join him'later on if his story of a residenoe on Sanford street is found to be untrue. He was remanded until Wednesday next.

A LABOUKK DIES WI1ILK AT WOItK.

Michael Bradley, a laborer, aged 45, of 40 Prince street, was pumping out the cellar of John H.

Both Sections of the Eagle World Fair Excursion. THE TRIP WAS A MOST DELIGHTFUL ONE.

Fast Time Was Made on tlio Central, While on the Erie a Slight Mishap to an Engine Caused Some Delay All tho Tourist? Enjoyed the Journey Across the Continent and Arrived in the Western Metropolis Fresh as Daisies on a Sparkling Summer Special to the Eagla. Chicago, October 9 Brooklyn reinforcod Jhicago to day. The Eaole excursion arrived just in time to witnoss tho opening of Chicago day at tho fair. The morning mitts were lifting from tho Western metropolis as the splendid special on the Central system neared' its outer borders. The city emerged from tho fog, radiant in gala attire.

The Eaole excursionists, responsive to the reveille at o'clock, were up betimes. Thy woro ahead of tho schedule. The run across Michigan from Detroit was made at more thau fifty miles an hour. 15y direction of tho Michigan Central officials the Eagle train cornmandod of way. Everything else on whuels.

including many extras intended to accommodate tho rising tido Chicago day traffic, stood aside as this newest of flyers swept onward. Tho run of 515 miles from Niagara to Chicago was mado at top spaed. At Detroit Ensine 454, with Engineer Abe Lyman in the cab, was attached. Tho mighty maehino wrought wonders during the early morning hours. Through VpRilanti and Ann Arbor, through Jackson and Buttle Creek rattled tho sleepers to tho Michigan border.

Cutting across a corner of northern Indiana the travelers soon struck Illinois soil. A whirl over tho Calumet river bridgo brought them into Chicago suburbs. It was exactly 8:85 when the train pulled into Uydo park station. The company drove at onco to the Vermont hotel for breakfast. For the party Sunday had been an ideal day on the rail.

The train passed Rochester soon afteff dawn. Early risers had an eicellant view of Genesee falls. Glimpses were also had of the Flower city, with its scores of stately residences and its miles of well paved streets. Next Batavia was reached, and as the excursionist sped through they could almost touch in tho town cemetery tho monument erected to Morgan of anti masonic memory. The bronze statue omerging from the night recnlled to many on board tho stirring passages in political history which followed Morgan's fate.

A little west of Batavia is tho down grade on which the Jiow York Central makes its fastest time. There it was that engine No. 999. with expert Hogan at the throttle, broke all records by covorine miles in an hour. Engineer Hogan met the train later on and was introduced to a score or more of tho Eaole passengers at Niagara.

Arrival at Buffnlo found most of the pleasuro seekers at breakfast. All had passed the night comfortably. Everyone expressed satisfaction with the trip. From the observation car, as the train traversed the heart of tho city, Goneral Passenger Agent Daniels pointed out many places of interest. Incidentally he referred to the labor troubles of 1892 and tho aid rendered by the Brooklyn troops to preserve order.

Fleeting views of Buffalo, whore only a brief stop was made, elicited many complimonts on the appearance of the city and its remarkably woll swept streets. It's a pity we can't have such Streets in sighed a complaining citizen. Buffalo has more miles of roadway paved with asphalt than any other city of America. Niagara with all its wealth of sconie beauty blossomed into view soon after 10 o'clock. Never have the falls looked grander.

Cataracts and rapids, river and islands, all were framed in a gorgeous blending of autumnal foliage. Badiant sunshine brought out tho brilliant tints in the changing loveliness, completing a panorama equaled no where else on earth. In a twinkling the cars woro emptied. At Niagara the party encountered signs of the growing traffic consequent on tho designation of Monday as Chicago day at tho fair. Itailroad men agreed that no suoh pressuro on transportation facilities Had ever boen witnessed in the West.

Scenes about tho Niagara station boro out their statements. As the Eagle train, with banners flying, neared the depot, long trains of Wagner cars crowded to the platforms stretched along tho rails. A throng of spectators viewod tho arrival of the special, and generous welcome vras extended. Most of the men auu many of tho women voyagers wore blue and white badges as they alighted. For three hours tho Eagle colors were seen fluttering in every direction.

They brightened tho graceful span of Suspension bridge, invaded the fragrant recesses of Goat island, bravod tho brink tho chasm from Luna island, and bloomed on the Canadian shore. A large delegation visited the Clifton house on tho Canadian side and were handsomely entertained by Landlord Coleman. The whirlpool rapids attracted some scores of visitors. Among those who joined tho party at Buffalo was Mr. Ambrose Butler of the Buffalo A'eics.

That journal contained on Sunday morning an article highly complimentary to the Eaule and the excursion. It begins: Tho Eaole train was a beauty. It will pass through Buffalo over the New York Central at 7:40 this morning. The Bkooklvk Eaole is taking its friends to the world fair two hundred of them and never since hospitality supplanted chivalry has anybody taken his friend on such a magnilcent trip or such an olaborato scale. The Brooklyn Eaole has been growing of late, growing very very fast.

In fact, its spirit of progress has become so manifest that some of its big, boastful neighbors across the bridgo have held thoir hands to their brows and wondered how the Eagle dared to soar so near to the glistening pinnacle of supromest prosperity. So now tho Eaole 1b going to take its friends to the groat fair and keep thorn there for a week and show tnem all that is to be seen. The Eagle train is mado up of ten Wagner palaco coaches and is one of the finest trains that ever passed over the New York Central and Michigan Central lines." The Jfews says, in conclusion, that the trip is the best on record and that the Eagle is on titlod to great credit for the enterprise. On leaving Niagara in tho afternoon tho train crossed into Canada and took the tracks of the Canada Southern. Until dusk the run was through a rich agricultural section covered with pioturesque farms and dotted with fattening shoep and turkeys.

To roliove the monotony of the journey it was proposed to take a vote with a view to ascertaining the choice of the excursionists for mayor of Brooklyn at the coming eloetion. Cards were distributed bearing thoso words: "Please writo on this card your choico for mayor of Brooklyn. State if you are a voter. The name of the writer will not be used." These cards proved, in the words of the Mikado, A scene of innocent merriment." AH on board were entitled to vote and thero whs not a little canvassing, particularly among tho fair sex. A count of the ballots showed these results: Total vote, 115; W.

About thirty five votes were cast for Eagle people. Those who did not vote were observers in watching the north shore. Gaynor had 15 votes and 23 noa voters. Boody 10 votes and 8 uon voters.

Sohroeder 13 votes and 5 non voters. Tho result was received with a good deal of amusement. It was agreed to postpone tho next vote to November. Good luok not less than good management attended the excursionists on thoir arrival this The special train was one of the fow not stallod by the tremendous influx of Chicago day travol. Nothing like tho rush of this morning has ever boon seen in an American city.

As the Eagle special shot into Hyde park station, the gtracks for miles were lined with crowded cars. Not only Chicago and its sub urbs, but the wholo Nortnwcst seemed turned. Inside out. Thousands of arriving strangers sat in thoir cars at the city limits all night. Other thousands.J notwithstanding tho presoneo of two or.

three hotels on nearly every block, had walked the stroets in lieu of a hod. It was through a surging multitude that the Brooklyn folk had to make thoir way. Manager Nash Bockwood, who met tho train at Niagara, directed tho arrangements for the reception of tho guests.

The Erie party arrived hers last evening and at 9:30 o'clock were all sntely and comfortably quartered in the Vermont hotel. The train was due about 7:30 and all tho way out the excursionists related to enoh other the ainny tales about trains filled with world fair tourists that were many hours late. Tho Eaole party would havo reached Chicago promptly on time but for the total depravity of a locomotive that broke down a3 they woro at dinner, last evening, about oightv miles out of Chicago. A good din ner eaten in peace covers a multitude of sins. and although it was one hour before tne iresn engine reached the train nobody cared, for tho dinner was good.

Mail tne jliagle maae an especial arrangement with the weather man a liner day than yesterday could not have been secured. It was simply perfoet a gem of Indian summer just warm enough for tho swiftly changing picture A lovely landscapo and gorgeous Octobor tinted foliage was a constant delight Everybody was happy and the numerous words of praise that camo from tho excursionists relative to the excellent way in which thoir comfort had been arranged were very pleasant to thoso in charge. Praise also is due to the Erie management for the excellent train service. It was a solid train of flvo sleepers and dining cars, two cars being devoted to the Eagle party, and the otljer three being tilled with Chicago bound people from New York and elsewhere. Consequently the train was run without stops save for the usual changes of engines and pauses under block signal.

It was very reassuring to the tourists to find how carefully they were looked after. Mr. James Backley, tho general Eastern passenger agent of the Erie, and Mr. William B. Lindsay, tho Brooklyn agent, camo through with the Eagle party to Chisago, looking after their welfare.

The day's run was full of interest. The aows of tho result of Saturday's yacht race reached tho party at Port Jervis, so that was 6iT thir minds and they could employ the time in othor ways. Mornig papers from Cleveland met the party at Kent, and gave full details of the contest. Everybody felt patriotic ovor the result Meals were served with great promptness. Tho dining car is to be held in Chicago for tho use of the party upon tho return trip.

As night camo down over the Illinois prairies tho party began watching for the first glimpses of the fair illuminations. Mr. Ben Butterworth of ths Eagle's Chicago bureau and a representative of the Vermont hotol had met the party at Huntington, 143 miles out, and all details about baggage were attended to. Every traveler had the number of his room at the hotol and thero was notning to worry about, so all oyes were soanninji the darkness outside. Suddenly a lofty globe of brilliant light flashed into view through the distance.

It was the dome of tho administration building, and it was seemingly, with myriads of electric lights. Thon in a little while tho 260 foot sweep of the Ferris wheel was outlined in light against the sky and remained in view until the train rolled into the Englewood station. Carriages were in waiting and the party were soon transported to the Vermont hotel at Fifty first street and Drexel boulevard. It was a pleasant ride in tho cool evening air through brilliantly lighted parkways and boulovards and In short order all were in their rooms. To day is Chicago day at tho fair and over half a million people will be on the grounds.

Every hostelry in tho city is jammed. More than one hundred and fifty wore turned away from the Vermont yesterday. Trains wore pouring a flood of folks from all over the WeBt into Chicago al! day yesterday, and at early morning they began to arrivo an increasing torrent. All the way through Ohio and Indiana yesterday at evory station were people endeavoring to board the Eaole train, bound to take part iu Chicago day, but not a passenger was admitted. All had to wait for the second section of tho train, thirty or forty minutes behind.

Special oxercises and brilliant pageants havo been arranged, and it will bo the greatest day in the history of the fair. Even its immen sitv will be balked to day by the marvelous out pouring of citizens. Business is suspended in the city, and if anyone desires to take in the sights of the town without enduring the jam it is a good day for the trip. Soino of tho Eagle party propose to spend tiie day in that manner and thus avoid tho crowd at tho grounds. Thousands' were unable to find quarters last night.

Chairs in restaurants sold for $1 each for sleeping accommodation, and the police threw open tho station houses in some instances to shelter late comers unable to find even a roof to shelter them. NO CASE AGAISST A DRUGGIST. Charged. Villi Prescribiiijr I'ills for a Customer. Itudolph C.
