HEARING THE NEWS The Avenue Crowded With People Interested in the Election. STAR'S SCREENS AND MEGAPHONES The Majority Got the Kind of News That Was Wanted. CHEERING FOR M’KINLEY a Certainly not since the days of the war has there ever been a scene in this city comparable for interest and excitement with that presented by the vast surging crowds on the avenue last evening as the news of McKinley's victory came in over the wires. ‘J From an early hour in the evening the streets flowing into the avenue Were thronged with people, all headed for the corners where the bulletins were to be dis played. By the time darkness had settled over the town and the stereopticons had been lighted up there were thousands and thousands of excited people between 9th ard 14th streets. The sidewalks could ac- commodate but a small fraction of the crowd, which quickly overflowed into the street. By 8 o'clock there was a great sea of people cheering and yelling like mad. In Front of The Stur Office. The three mammoth screens erected in front of The Star office had been so ar- ranged that the news displayed upon them could be read for a long distance up and down the avenue, and the crowd extended from 10th to 12th street, banked into one solid surging mass of humanity, filling up the broad expanse in front of the new city pest office until motion was next to {mpos- sible. The cable cars were kept running, but it was no easy task to engineer them through the crowd, and the constant clang- ing of their big bells added to the uproar and confusion. At no time between 8 and 12 o'clock couid there have been less than 25,4”) people in front of The Star bulletins, and there were also big crowds in front of the Post an Times buildings.

Judging by the antics and the cheers of the multitude the reports of republican successes from all parts of the country were just what the people of Washington wanted the mosi. Early in the evening it became evident that McKinley was sweep- ing the country, and from that time on there was nothing but cheering, wild, dis- sonant cheering that rose to the heavens in one vast wave of sound. The noise could be heard to the very Imits of the city, as far as the boundaries of Columbia and Washington Heights. Ore would hardly be lieve that a sound made up of individ human voices would carry so far. By 9 o'clock it came to be a question of “How much?” What would be McKinley's majority in the electoral What state that had been consfdered doubtful IN FRONT OF THE at each of the vartous centers of interest; so that the crowds kept changing more or less. This applied, however, only to the outer edges, for the men and women who were wedged in the jam in front of The Star office could hardly have they had wanted to. But they did not want to. They had come down town to get the election returns, and they knew where they were likely to get them most satisfactorily. Utility of the Mega Notwithstanding the fact that The Star screens had been placed at such angles that they could be seen for hundreds of up and down the avenue a erable distance up 11th street, suli lots of people on the edg crowd who could not get @ satis on the seree For such a aphones were an unmixed ‘The Star was indebted to + y of Mr. Dobt gent of the Barnes White F biey and the Georgetown Uni- versity for the use of the twe megaphones employed last night in this nov vice. It was probably the first time that mega- phones bave been used to announce the results of an election, and the novelty of there were of the aciory pie the meg- the scheme seemed to strike the crowds most favorably. One was placed on the balcony of The Star building in such a way as to command the avenue to the west, while another on the cast side of the building gave the people on lith street the news that had just come in hot over the wires. It seemed remarkable that the human voice could he heard so distinctly above the crazy agglomeration of sounds that filled the streets until they were as noisy as the cave of Acolus. Yet when‘the results from a distant stete were spoken into the mouthplece of one of the huge megaphones they could be clearly under- stood for a long distance. As one maa whose eyesight Is not of the best expressed it: “I always come down to see the fun of election night, but here- tofore I never could keep track of all that was going on. But last night it was dead easy. I put my spectacles in my pocket and simply stood around in the neighbor- hood while some kind {f unknown friend on the second floor of The Star office kept me posted on the news from everywhere.

Then came the news that Kentucky had spoken in no measured voice. This was good news, indeed, and precisely what the crowd wanted. Then North Dakota was heard from. And New York! Well, well, Well, good people, how they cheered. ‘The avenue was all turbulent with sound. Horns blew, hats were tossed in the air. What if the hats were lost in the crowd? Had not the owners won a dozen new oncs on_the election? This is but a scant picture of the scene and falls far short of giving an adequate idea of its unusual features. It was, as sald before, a republican mass meeting from start to finish. Farther up the ave- nue there was a crowd in front of another screen, which showed a decided demo- cratic complexion. Joy was not quite so rife in_that neighborhood. Around The Star office all that was wanted was news of a ringing sound money victory. When the news was given out that Louisiana had gone for Bryan it scaraely “got a hand’ as theatrical people say when they speak of applause. It is true that the news was not entirely unexpected. Neither was there mvch eurprise when it was learned that Alabama, had gone democratic. It was the unexpected that was happening until the crowd fairly began to expect the unex- pected. The bulletins on the screen were contin- ued until 3 o'clock this morning, and even then when “Good night” was displayed the crowd was still loth to leave. It was long after that hour before the streets became quiet and tho last of the hoarse and weary shouters had gone home. Bulletins at Other Places.

MANY HOARSE TODAY Cases Called in the Police Court This Morning. SENTENCES IMPOSED “The election of my friend Mr. McKinley last evening,” said Policeman Flynn before proceedings began in the Police Court this morning, “was gratifying to me in more respects than one. As you are no doubt aware thousands of persons were on the streets last evening to hear the returns, It was emphatically a McKinley gathering, and, therefore, it is pleasing to know that good order to an unusual degree prevailed. Strange as it may secm, it is nevertheless true that my business has been diminished rather than increased by the affair of last evening. You will notice that the proces- sion this morning is but one-third the usual length.” But one person was in the toils for elec- tion reasons. It was Abraham Herald, a young and well-dressed colored man, whose home is at Tenleytown. According to the policeman who made the arrest Herald caused trouble at an early hour this morn- ing on a 7th street cable car. He was the only passenger and made himself so ob- noxious to the gripman and conductor that it became essential for them to eject him from the car. After being thrown off, ilerald took post on the sidewalk and con- tinued to express himse cidedly rude to say the least. thereupon taken in custody. “I didn't do a thing, Abraham. “A colored fellow in front of me gave the man a quarter for some tickets nd the conductor wouldn't give them to him, and they had a row. I didn’t do a thing.” “He was the only passenger on the car, your honor,” said the policeman. ‘There 18 ake about it.” dollars John O'Hara and Walter Carville, white boys, were not at all discouraged by the nature of the returns. At 2 o'clock this morning, although the indications were strongly to the contrary, they still enter- tained hopes of Mr. Bryan's success and hurrahed for the exponent of silver at 16 to 1, with vigorous voices. William Hunt, colored, was standing at 10th street and Pennsylvania avenue when the boys passed and gave utte nces to their Bryan yell, nd he took exception by striking the bey When placed under arrest a long knife was found on Hunt. That fact did not help his cause in court, and Jud Kim- ball imposed a fine of $25, although the prisone declared that he “didn’t do a thing.” She Was Slangy.
