During the gap in parade the spectators sang patriotic | once to applaud Mrs. n:-i | the crowd cheered cach i Pr with the fizures of the President and Vice-President. But when the time came for the guests to be escorted to the dining-room, the beautifully decorated table was missing. In its place were several tables large enough for only four persous. The whis- pered explanation was that somebody had a row over whether the English Embassa- dor should sit at the President’s right. To settle the dispute the big table was hastily removed. The reception was a most impressive affair. Rarely has svch a distinguished company been gathered together, and never has the Union League Club at- tempted anything so elaborate. The | decorations of banners, flags and plants were profuse, brilliantly showing the gold and blue uniforms of army and navy offi- cersand diplomatic corps. A huge erowd, anxious to see the President, surged to the clubhouse doors. The police drove them to the opposite side of the street, from which they could just catch a glimpse of the people as they leit the carriaz De- termined to bestow applause where due, arria A band which escorted somebody to the clubhouse was obliged to hang around outside until aiter the reception, so the erowd induced it to play *Hail to the Chier” each time a carriage leit guests at the door. The police tinally quelled the band and the crowd. Ths band played “Hail to the Chief” as the President en- tered, leaning on the arm of General Porter. Close behind came Vice-President | Hobart, with Embassador Pauncefote and | Mr. Depew. | The line bebind them was very long. | Each guest was accompanied by a mem- ber of the club. Among them, besides the | sidential party, which the Cabinet and diplomatic corps, wi erals Schotield, Howard, Miles, M. Dodge, Rear-Admirals Brown and Bunce, Speaker Reed, Mayor Strong, Senator | Hanna, Governors Cook of Connecticut, | chusetts, Ramsdell of New Hamps Bushnell of Ohio, Hastings of Pen vanis, Lippitt of Rhode Island, Grout of Vermont and Black of New York, Sen- ators Sewall, Wetmore, Frye, Proctor, Gallinger, Fairbanks, Waltham, Ca Turner snd Elkins. These guesis and mary others marched slowly up the stairs, which were guarded by a compsny of the Thirteenth Infantry. In the larce meeting hail on the second | floor the reception was held.

An hour later the President had landed at Fifty-second street, the President’s flag | was hauled down from the Dolphin and the parting Presidential salute marked the close of the water iete. - EVENING RECEPTION, | President McKinley’s Busy Day Closed by Fitting Honors and a Banquet. NEW YORK, N.Y., April 27.—From the time President McKinley ‘left the Windsor Hotel at 9 o'clock in the morn- g until he returned at haif-past 6, he was the recipient of an extremely cordial | welcome irom the crowds that swarmed along the seven miles or more of streets, from the throngs about the tomb, and from ine crowded decks of tugs and ex- cursion boats. His duy was busy and | trying, but he seemed brighter and more animated when he returned to the hotel than when he left it. At 9 c’clock to-nizht General Porter es- corted him to the Union League Club for ay’s closing ceremony. Many of those at the Union League in the after- noon saw a long tzble beautifuily decor- ated, at which the President and friends were to dine. It contained a confection amodel of the White House ana Capitol ' | retiring eal Porter, whe as pres:dent of the club stcod beside Président McK during the reception and introduced him to the| members.

S | THE GRANT FAMILY. i Although Welghted With Yaars, the Widow of the Great General Bore Up Well. NEW YORK, N. Y., April —It wasa long day for the Grant family, but they | bore the strain well. They were scheduled | to start from thie Fifth-avenue Hotel at 9 A.

At 9:15 o’clock the whole family took | seats in the seven carriages provided for them. Mrs. Grant came out first, leaning upon the arm of her son, Frederick. As oon as she appeared Squadron A, drawn up in front of the hotel, saluted. The whole family was then driven to | the tomb. They were lustily cheered along the romte. After the dedication ceremonies and luncheon Mrs, Grant viewed the parade until 4 o'clock, then, fearing the cffects of the chilling wind, leaning upon the arm of her eldest son and followed by ell the family, she in- spected the interior of the tomb and gazed in silence fora moment upon the sarcopha- gus which contains the dust of her illus- trious husband.

He returned to this | city from San Francisco a week ago.” e WHY NEW YORK WAS| SELECTED. | Grant Preferred It Because Its People Had Befriended Him in His Need. The &edication of the Grant mounumeny recalls many interesting events in the ca- | reer of the greatest American soldier. It | brings again to putlic notice the early | struggles and the many vicissitudes of the | New Yosk Monument Association. There was a widespread feeling at one time that the remuins of General Grant should re- pose in a crypt of the National Capitol, but the Grant family, bearing in mind | certain preferences expressed by the hero while his life was siowly ebbing away at | Mount McGregor, deciced to accept & proposition made by New York and place | all that was mortal of the great captain in | a mausoleum on the Hudson. In the | West the hope was expressed that Galena, IiL, should be the resting-place of the | man who went from there as & simvle cit- izen to perform a patriotic duty, and sub- sequently gained such iame and honor as few men ever achieved. Veterans of the Union army, or many of them in all parts | of the country, hoped that his remains | might be laid to rest in the National Cem- | etery at Arlington on the banks of the Po- | tomac. | When New York was chosen the pubiic waited to see if a city so bent on gaining comme rcial prestige would appreciate the | patriotic honor bestowed and fulfill the | expectation of the country. A week or two before his death General |’ Grant expressed some views o his son, Colonel Frederick D. Grant, in regard to | bis burial. The disease had made such progress that his power of iniculunun‘ had almost ceased, and 1t was only by su- j preme effort that he could whisper articu- late words; he theretore used pencil and | paper to communicate with those about | bim. When he began to write the general | named Galena, his old home, then paused | and shook his head. He then wrote West Point, but expressed the fear that the | rules governing interment there wouid prevent the burial of Mrs. Grant by his side. He finally referred to New York, wiere e had found such kind and de- | no place selected where his wife could not | bo buried by his side. He was apparentiy attempting to write more when & paroxysm seized him and the subject was Here are the memoranda on the subject | left by General Grant for the guidance of his family in the selection of his last rest- ing-place West Point—I prefer this above others, but for the fact that my wife could not be placed beside me there. Galena or some other place in Iilinois—Be- cause from that State [ received my first gen- eral’scommission. New York—Because the peoole of that city | befriended me in my need. As New York was the last place he in- dicated a sentiment in favor of that city was created. It was accepted as the gen- eral's final request. The family expressed a preference for New York, as it was their following year the Grant Monument As- soclation was organized with Chester A. Arthur as president. A week later Mr. Ar bur was stricken with fatal illness and 4 resigned and Sidney Dillon was elected to succeed him. Up to tais time the con- tributions received amounted to $114,000. In April, 18§7, Cornelius Vanderbilt be- came president of the association and was succeeded in February, 1888, by ex-Mayor William R. Grace. Various measures for providing a proper sepulchre were considered, and competi- tive designs from leading architects in- vited. In September, 18%0, the plan fur- nished by J. H. Duncan of New York for a structure to cost between $500,000 and $620,000 was accepted. In due time a contract was made for building a fountation, and on April 27, 1891, tie anniversary of General Grant's birthday, ground was broken with appto- priate exercises. Comrade Charles H. Freeman. commander of the department of New York, Grand Army of the Repub- lic, was the presiding officer. An oration was delivered by General Horace Porter. A contract was subsequently made for the construction of the lower course of the granite work, which would bring the don the projrct. New Yorkers then be- gan to look around for a leader—ior a man of corganizing ability to direct af- fairs. At this period General Horace Por- ter was urged to take charge of the affairs of the sssociation. He was found to be the man for the work. The monument, as it stands completed and paid for tc-day, |is a striking tribute to his genius. He had been General Grant's chief of staff, and he knew New York as few soldiers knew it. General Porter undertook to rai more than twice much money in a few months as had been secured by his pre- decessors in years. He inaugurated an eight weeks’ financial campaign in honor of his chief that was characterized by amazing ability, industry and success. The movement began March 21, 1892, and in a few weeks General Porter an- nounced: An auxillary committee has been ap- pointed in nearly evary branch of busi- ness, trade or profession in the city. The clubs, the churches, the newspapers, co- operated and the business interests of the metropolis were carefully organized to | rai e money.

The sum raised up to this time was | about $155000, and efforts to get more money secmed fo be unavaiing. It seemed 10 the country that the stock of New York patriotism was exhausted, and if the Grant' monument was to bs com- pleted the people of the whole United States would have to tuke hold of the work. As the fund did not increase the impression obtained that New York would fail to give the remains of the illustrious | commander of the Union armies a proper | resting-place, 50 a bili was introduced in Congress providing for a removal of the body to the National capital. This pro- posed measure aroused the patriotic citi THE MEMORIAL MEDL. 133010 BY THE SragIEaN KUMISHATIC 7 AR AUCHBOLOWICAL BOCIEYY € the present monument in Riverside Park was selected. It is an igeal location for a monumental | tomb, the ground being on the bank or{ the Hudson, at a height of about 130 feet above the water. It was seen that a monu- ment of suitable proportions would be vis- ible from prominent parts of the city, from points many m1 es up the river and from decks of vessels in portions of the barbor. A temporary tomb of brick masonry was immediately cons‘ructed. The re- mains were brought to New York, receiv. ing marked tributes of respect from offi cial bodies and masses of the people. After the body had lain in state at Ai- bany, the capital, and at the City Hall, New York, the funeral took place on Sat- urday, August 8, 1885. The demonstration as the cortege pass:d from the City Hall to Riverside Park was the most impressive that the city had ever witnessed. It is estimated that the procession was viewed by more than a million people. General GranU’s spirit passed away at § o’clock on the morning of July 23, 1885. On July 8, five days later, a meeting of citizens of New York was called by the Mayor. A commiitee was appointed to begin the movement for a suitable monu- ment to the memory of the iliustrious sol- dier. The next day a permanent organi- zation of the committee was effected. Ex-President Chester A. Arthur was closen chairman. In February of the zens of New York to a sense of their re- sponsibility. They were also quickened by the stinging eriticism of the press of other cities. The old soldiers felt that Grant’s memory had not been respected, and began to cast reproach on the com- mercial metrovolis of the Nation. They thought that seven years was ample time to finish the work, and refused to consider the time that had been taken to build the Bunker Hill monument at Boston and the Washington monument at the National capital. It was demanded of the city of New York that her citizens who had sought the honor of erecting the monumesnt sbould carry out the enterprise at once, or aban- ing subscriptions, and when President Harrison laid the corner-stone on April 27 General Porter announced that in four weeks $202 800 had been contributed, most | of it from Manhattan lsland. By Memo- | rial day, a month latter, the total amount needed had been subscribed and a gigan- tic work had been accomplished. The monument as it stands to-dav rep- resents an expenditure of nearly $600,000. This came from 90,000 American citizens, and it includes the widow’s mite and the poor man’s modest offering, as well at the large subscriptions of the rich. It is a genuine tribute of the people, un- |like the great monuments of Europe. The Albert memorial in London, the tomb of Kaiser Withelm in Berlin, and the huge Germania upon the Niederwald ware each constructed by governmental agencies. The Grant monument in New York represents the loyai love and patri- otic remembrances of & united people. - AN ORIGINAL CREATION. The Design of the Tomb Is Digni- fled and Imposing. The design provided by Architect John H. Duncan is not a mere copy of a Eu- ropean model, but an original creation, dignified, imposing, suggestive of the strength and fortitude of a warrior, and of the simple force of General Grant’s char- acter. The general style of the work is Grecian Doric. The tomb is' massive, yet well relieved by pillars ana other embeilishments. The ground upon which it Tests is 140 feet above the river, ana the structure lifts it- self 175 feet in the air. The exterior of the building isof a light granite, aud all of the interior is finished m white marble. The porch is ap- proached by a grand flight of steps sev- enty feet wide. After a diligent search of seven ‘'months inorderto find a granite of light color which would be entirely flawless and of durable quality, a granite singularly weli acapted for the purpose was found in North Jay, Maine, and this stone was usea in completing the structure. It isao | light in tone that in strong sunlight it is bardiy distinguishable from marvle. One of the most difficuit problems presented was the selection of a material suitable for the sarcophagus.
