Rather, ell these places are converted into temples, with the banner of the red crows hung from their windows. White plumesare waving everywhere, and the whole city seems to be in uniform, The early trains brought in many knights. Those who arrived just before daylight kept their sleepers until the sun cailed them up, and the beating of drums and the marching of the new arrivals aroused them vw activity, The early dayNght saw knights in gay uniforms, with ‘bande and ban- ners, marching from the depots to their several headquarters. About the depots it was a gay and busy scene. THe RUSH FOR THE HOTELS, There was@rush for every hotel, boarding house and eating place, and the password at every portal was “breakfast.” About every place where food was served was patronized. and from seven to eleven tables were sur- rounded by knights, And perhaps they did not always obey the old Tule of the order to ask softly and privately for what they want, where their wants could not be made known by signs. But they were an orderly and a gentle throng and they pald due Tespect to the order “ff at any time the thing you require is to be found vou must seek it with all gentleness aud remembrance of the words thy bread in silence,’ ‘They are the most orderly great crowd that ever appeared in Washington, MOUNTAINS OF BAGGAGE, As they finished their meals they poured out upon the streets or set to work finding their baggage. As many English tourists would hardly have more baggage. There were as many trunke and boxes and bags asthe «x- Press companies could han) from the depota. One, two and four-horse wagons were piled «as high as loads of bay. Inside the lobby at Willard » baggage wastpiled higher than @ man’s beud, and on the pave- ment about the entrance it was piled almost to the top of the portico, while three or four ‘mmense wagons waited to be unloaded. It was like sealing the walls of Jerusalem for the ae to get through their own baggage. The piles were composed of a strunze assort- ment of odd-shxped packing cases, trunks, and satchele and hat boxes, There were cases that held swords, eases for hats and others for uni- forms; some cases were odd enough in shape and of size almost to hold a horse. The knights were assembled around the pile and some were almost buried beneath it in their efforts to identify their traps. Now and then a knight would make a grab and walk off with s satchel in one hand aud a big case in the other, while his little bo would curry his sword and his wife follow wi the hat box, Im this way processions of knights loaded with the “spoils” res- cued from the promiscuous pile was formed, marching through the lobby and up the stairs. A hundred hands reaching down into the pile kept the mass of boxes aud bags stirred up like a tof mush, All the intellectual development and the ponderous strength of the fat porter was kept at high strain to preserve order. With an immense Saratoza trunk on his back he stoud, like Atlas, in the middle of the corridor, bring- of the apostie, ‘Eat also bave general supervision over the signal | ig order out of chaos, A MAN FROM cHIGAGo, ——— ith due regard for the comfort of his family Navat Notes ruom ANwaPo.is.—The steamer | ¥’ 5 : : Vhlins bus ¥otarnsd vs Annapolia from Norfoik, | #4 the distrust a Chicagoan thinks he ought to feel for Washington accommodations, brought six wooden bottomed chairs all the way from his home to be sure of something to sit on.

Scenes at the Depots Attending the Great Conclave, HE TWO railroad stations from early morning emp- tied humanity into the city in a torrent, like two great spiggots turned full on. The train sheds were crowded with cars, haul- ing up and backing out, end the depots were jammed with people, in- comers mostly, for the human tide was nearly all one way. A large proportion of those whose facea were seen at these two great meeting ces, however, were people who bad gone re to meet friends, both knights and laymen, while many went down out of mere curiosity to see the tty uniforms and to hear the music of the ds. From the depots a constant stream of huinan forms wound through the streets into the avenue and other throroughtares, angment- ing the crowds promenading back aud forth. At the Pennsylvania Station. At the Pennsylvania railroad station thecrush began very early and lasted all day. In the morning Sir Knight Charles W. Hancock of Columbia was in charge of the reception committee assigned to duty at that station, The general committee was divided Up 40 a8 to get the best results. There was no certaifty, however, about a committeeman's whereabouts, for the members were sent from one depot to another and were haif of the time ou the street escortin; delegations and commanderies to their assigne quarters. The scene in the depot re-embled those that prevuiled during the pre-inauguration season, The noise was deafening, the chatter of hundreds of tongues being only drowned by the clash of the bands that occasionally landed from the train, A GREAT CRUSH, The gates to the platforms were barricaded by @ solid wall of humanity several individuals deep, eager for news from the trains, which were invariably late.

B. Hay reached the depot soon after this and relieved Sir Hancock from the charge of the committee. He bustled hereand there in his usually active manner, and kept his colleagues in good humor between trains with his stories, COMMITTREMEN ON DUTY.

The trucks were piled high, and the smashers rushed here and share as though frantic. Tbe baggage cars seemed like Fortuna’s purse, unempiiable, and kept pouring forth their contents to an alarm- ing extent. Outside the depot, on the lower Gth-street side, the delivery wagons were drawn up to the curb in scores, with pro- vers yelling forth their induce- A SOUTHERN DELEGATION, At 12:15 a southern train rolledinto the depot and emptied a crowd of people upon the plat- forms, They were mostly “civilians,” with veral knights scattered among them.

The members of the reception committee were kept busy answering and giving informa- tion, Many persons called to inform them that their promised boarders had not yet ap- peared, and wanted their houses regis- tered on the hotel list.

The railroad people had their hands fall all day. Superintendent Alveys looks like a man who bas not slept for a week. He is completely tired out, although he still remains at his post.

Loxpox, Oct. 7.—The second ballots which took place in 136 constituencies in France yes- terday excited the least possible interest in Eng- land, and appeared to be regarded throughout France and in Paris itself with nothing ap- roaching the usual election excitement.

Ut- terly nnable to comprehend ihat the French people should bave deliberately repudiated themselves aud their revolutionary schemes, they now insist that their deteat is duc entirely to the fuilure of Gen. Boulanger to use the large sums of money which had been given him to aidin carrying the elections for the purposes for which y were intended. It is openly charged that the brave general has been quietly stowing away the millions of francs which his wealthy dupes poured into his coffers while he let the elections take care of ae a ulanger takes pains to create the impression that he is impaeessael: bat his disgusted allies make no secret of their belief that he bas aney nursed his bank account at the ex- pense of his own and their political prospects.
