ON TO ATLANTA President and Mrs. Cleveland Start for the Gate City. BIT TAKE A ROUNDABOUT COURSE, So As Not to Get Here Before the Exposition is Ready. "Washington, September <3o.—About fifty persons gathered in front of the white house this morning to witness the president and Mrs. Cleveland’s departure on their western trip. The weather has been rainy and disagreeable for the past three days. It cleared off beauti fully this morning, just in time to verify the proverbial good luck of the president. At 9:45 a carriage drew up at the north front of the executive mansion, and the president and Mrs. Cleveland, Mrs. Folsom and Lena, Mrs. Cleveland’s maid, entered and were driven to the Pennsylvania railroad station. The presi dent wore his usual black suit, while Mrs. Cleveland was dress*. I in a brown silk bodice, with white spring skirt and bonnet to match. At the station a special train had been run back nearly to the entrance of the building. An ordinary car had been attached for the accommodation of railroad and train men, which is to be detached at Baltimore. At that city the cars of the special train which are now headed by the “P. P. C.” w ill be re versed so as to bring the observation compart ment in the rear. The train looked very handsome in its new paint and glistening bronze fittings. Through the plate-glass windows could be seen baskets of jacqueminot roses and other cut flowers which had been provided by Mr. Pullman. From the waiting rooms A CUKIOUS CROWD EYED THE TRAIN mid every member of the party as they arrived. Mar Jial Wilson was early at the station. lie wa s followed by Secretary Fairchild Colonel and Mrs. Lamont, with their two children, arrived next ami went immediately to the train. Secretaries Whitney and Endicott preceded the presidential .party by a few min utes. Dr. Bryant and Mr. Bissell had already arrived and taken their places in the train. At ten minutes to ten o'clock the president jiiade his appearance at the station. He was escorted to the station by Marshal Wilson and Mr. Baldwin, superintendent of the Pullman company. Mrs. Cleveland and her mother came next ami her maid followed them. Quite a crowd of newspaper men, railroad officials and other favored personshad been admitted to the platform. Most of them raised their hats and the salutes were returned by the party. Secretary ami Miss Bayard hurried up at this moment ami boarded the train with the presi dent and Mrs. Cleveland. Engine No. 46, in charge of Engineer Frank Carver, had just backed down and coupled on to the train, which was under the direction of Conductor C. A. Haverstick. Members of the cabinet and Mrs. Folsom and Miss Bayard said farewell and at precisely ten o'clock the train moved off on its long journey. ARRIVAL AT BALTIMORE. Baltimore, September 30.—Tho presidential party reached this city at 11:10 this morning. The announcement that it would arrive at that time attracted about one thousand persons, fully one-half of whom were ladies, and for them the gates of the station wore opened. As soon as the train stopped, the president and Mrs. Cleveland were seen about the center of the Pullman car. He sat near the window’, and to a request to go to the platform of the car, shook his head. As soon as a messenger could reach him a dispatch was put in his hsmd, asking him to stand on the platform while passing Hanover Junction. The presi dent wore a light slouch hat, which he removed only once. Washington, September 30.—The presi dent's special train made no stop after leaving Baltimore until it reached Harrisburg. It slowed down when passing through York, Pa., where the president stood upon the rear plat form and bowed to the multitude that lined the roadway on both sides. The countiy be lt. eu Baltimorean i Harrisburg is very thickly settled ami ev< rybody seemed to know exactly when to look for the president’s train, as work men from the roadside factories and machine shops, children in the country schools, and apparently the entire population were upon the lookout and greeted the flying train with ( beers and waving handker chief. and hats. Harrisburg was reached shortly after 2 o'clock. Several thousand people thronged the depot and cheered as the train slowly made its way through the mass of hu manity, which could not be driven back by policemen. The Central Democratic club and band marched to the station and joined with the populace in extending a cordial welcome. The train stopped about, live minutes. The presi dent and Airs. Cleveland stood on the rear platform and bowed to the people. LOOKING AT THE NATURAL GAS. Pittsburg, September <3o.—The president’s train reached I mon station twenty minutes behind schedule time, a stop having been made nt Homewood, in the city limits, for fully twenty minutes to witness the illumina tion ol the natural gas stand pipes, which, from thelieight of nearly one hundred and twenty feet, sent a pillar of lire fully fifty feet above the pipe. The crush of people here who hoped to get a glimpse of the presi dent was enormous, and actually endangered his life. A strong effort was made to induce him to extend his stop to twenty minutes, but without avail. As soon as the train came to a stop Superintendent Pitcairn conducted ladies of the Woman’s Christian Temperance union to Mrs. Cleveland, and Mrs. 11. H. Jones pr- • nted a beautiful testi tnnnial which had 1m * ji prepared. In the meantime various democratic organ!* y.dicn-. the member? of which had been drawn t:p in line for some time, crowded upon the platform of tie mr car, upon which the presi dent had taken his position. The train waited hat live minutes and as it passed along tho Lack- of the Pan Handle railway and into the porta*, of the tunnel, westward bound, the rroifd Jowly dispersed. 3’he president, as he parted from the last member of ihe citizens’ committee, said that he had seen just enough fJ Pitt, bmg to induce him to promise that, in the early future, he would return to sec m re <-f it. Altoona, Pa., September 30.—The presi dential party arrived here it 6:23, on time. About 12.000 people ciowded the depot and surroundings. As il.e train pulled into the Mation, a band played an enlivening air, but the music was drowned by the incessant cheer ing <d tlm assemblage. The president and his Xi ife made their appearance on the rear plat -1 »rm < 1 their car, and were greeted with deaf < ning cheers, Mrs. Cleveland, however, soon r tired to tho center of the car, where she Viewed the crowd from a large window, ami J»]oa>'ii»tly acknowledged numerous bows made jy those near by. The train stopped six min titcs. 1 eh.g detained one minute on account of !.:<• crowd. No speech* ; were made. Im ianapolis. Octol >cr I.—Daybreak found the president’s train in western Ohio, about two hours west of Coin mbits. It was now moving upon single track lines, and its printed special timecard bore the legend: “Thh train will run extra will absolute right of (rodeo rnV trains.” The night was passed comfortably by the ex* enrsionists and without notable incident. A hra*> band serenade was cxpeiirnred a little before midnight, and from time to time •t. stop’ing places, voices were heard calling tv c • < h other in the darkness: “WHERE IS HE?” Al out a thousand p< rsons were at the station p.: Columbus when the train arrived, at half j st four o’clock. They were very quiet. gath < ing about the rear platform and ntenting u ■ nga( h emu lait.od the president. A ted'grain had L<»n I c> ivfd by Colonel Lamont at Pittsburg from <’ mgi€*sman Onlhwnite, urging a '. ■/ t Co liimbus. 1 nt the reply was made that owing to ti. illy hour it wo ild lie im| 0.-ibb . At Bradford Junction. at 7 o’clock, the J .ent made his first appearance and greeted a little crowd of a hundred which had gathered about his car with a heartv “good morning.” “M e would like also to see vour wife,’’ said one of the crowd. “That is impossible now,” replied the presi dent. “She has a hard day’s work before her and is resting.” ell, we are are right glad to see you,” said the spokesman of the crowd. ”1 thank you for that,” rejoined the presi dent; “but of the two, I expect von would pre fer to sec Mrs. Cleveland.” At Richmond, Ind., HALF AN ACRE OF SOLID HUM VNITY awaited the train. A five minutes* stop was spent in hand shaking, the president remain ing upon the. platform of bis car and grasping the hands reached up to him. Breakfast was the only incident of the run from Riehm. nd to Ind auapolis. The procession moved promptly on time—eleven o’clock. First came a squad of mounted police; behind came a moving mass with flying flags and the flashing of military accoutrements. Next came the governor's staff IN GORGEOUS OFFICIAL UNIFORM, while behind inarched a platoon of police, fol lowed by a band of musicians. Behind taese marched the Light infantry, making i strik ing display. Then the chief marshal, Gen eral Kuefler and staff, and immediately follow ing came the president’s escort, the Hendricks club, to the number of two or three hundred. A uniform appearance was attained by the tall hats of gray with black bands, black clothes, club, badge and a cane, carried by each mem ber. The club formed in a hollow square, surrounding the president’s carriage and fol lowed at either side, ringed in rows, two abreast. The open carriage, hidden almost by the drapery of flags, was drawn by eight pow erful gray horses, gaily caparisoned. On the back seat to the right sat the president. By his side was Mrs. Cleveland. On the opposite seat sat ex-Senator McDonald, the three being the sole occupants. Curiosity and criticism were alike satisfied, and as the carriage moved slowly up the street there was distinctly felt a social atmosphere and greeting which was a tribute altogether fitting and of finer flavor than the noisy dem onstration of political gatherings. The general manner gave this out as the crowd swept over the curbstones into the street, making two great streams of people flowing down behind ihe escorting clubs. Men and women with babies in arms, and children, were unde terred by the muddy condition of the street. And yet, withal, there was nothing motley in the masses. GOVERNOR GRAY INTRODUCED THE PRESIDENT to the multitude, in an address welcoming him to the state of Indiana. President Cleveland replied: When I received the hearty invitation from the people of Indianapolis, ami thro igh their governor, the invitation of the people of the stale of Indiana to .* t -p on my travels and see ih mi|and their cipital city. I was not long in determining that my route should lead me this way. lam sincerely glad to have the opportunity wh’.ch my short stay affords to see the fair proportions of your thriving and prosper ous town. The citizens of the state of Indiana have abun dant cause for congratulation in the volume ; n I variety of their products, their public educational advantages, their charitable institutions and all that contribute to ih? greatness of a state. But, it seems to me, not the least cause for an Indianan’s pride should be his state capital. First settled in 1819, the year thereafter its population numbered fifteen families. Chosen as the seat of the state government in 1821, it was a bout,(that time laid out as a town and given its p e ent name, though it had no incorporation un i IS3G, and did not receive a city charter till 1847. Forty years growth has given it a population of at least one l undred thousand and all the bu>i) e activity that characterizes a prosperous American city. I shall not dwell in detail upon the features of your city’s flcn risking condition, which are daily under your observation, lam told by au old resi dent that your capital can be DIRECTLY REACHED BY RAILROAD from every county in the state excepting two, and those who live here must be very active and rest e s, or very social, or both, for I am quite sure you will fn d more miles of street railioad in Indian apolis than in any other city of its size in the United States. I must ro‘ omit to congratulate the people of Indiana and the r capital upon the careful and economical administration of their public affairs. Proof of this now beautifies your city, for I am told your spacious and handsome state house, just completed, was actually built within the limit of its expense originally fixed. In these days of waste, extravagance and miscalcula lion in regard to public buildings, this is a thing so unusi a that you may well be proud of it. So tar as your city is concerned, it has been quite lately re lented as having the lowest tax rate of all the cities of the country with population of 50,0t0 and up wards, excepting two. lam at this moment much impressed with another thought connected with this place. Its suggo ton cannot fail to awaken in your minds AN AFFECTIONATE BENTDIENT, audits subject directs the interested attention of tl e nation to this spot. Here lived and died a man. your neighbor and your frit n 1, whose name was a household word throughout the land, trusted and respected by his fellowmen and by them invested with the highest civil trust. A loyal true son of your stale, amid his honors he never forgot the people of Indiana, and his fellow townsmen of India napolis, and while he loved you well, he brought honor to you by his faithful discharge of the functions of public oflice, and by a firm dev< tion and adherence to patriotic principles. All will join you in the respect you, ( her s i for his memory, ami the kindly, tender thought of the people of the land will always turn to youx city as the place where your distinguished citizen lived and died, and where rests his remains among the surroundings be has so m i< h enjoyed. It is, therefore, not only gratifying to me to be with you as citizens of Indianapolis, but to be able to greet you as friends and neighbors of the man hon ored by the nation and connected with me by ties offriemlship. bv the fortunes of ]»olitical life, and in the dischar e of public duty. It was 2 before the procession again started, going north of Meridian street to ex-Senator McDonald's homo, where Mrs. McDonald had propared lunch, and invit ed the party of sixty to sit down with the dis tinguished guests. Altera brief call here, the line of march was tak* n up for the union depot, where they arrived shortly after half past three, and as soon as possible started for Terre Haute. On the way to the depot, a horse ridden by a member of the governor's staff immedi ately in fnait of the president’s carriage, ba came affirmed, reared, threw its rider and fell upon him. The man was assisted t<> his feet, but was laid upon the parking at the side < f the street <»nd remained there surrounded by a knot of hi' comrades as the procc.s.Jon moved past. The time for leaving was already up. and the visitors were driven to the depot with out .(Tuning the name ol the inimed man. The parting episode at Indianapolis was a stentorian invitation, audible ab .vc the cheers of the multitude. “Come a-.tain, Grover,” to which the president raised his hat and bowed bis thanks. A long train load of returning Grand Army men stood upon the s:<iina, the pas.M ngers in which crowded its jd.ithuin . aiid windows, and waved and shouted their salute.'. At Terre Haute station, a crowd of several thousand persons thronged the track and plat forms, and made the disembarkation ol the party a difficult,and somewhat dangerous pro ceeding. The president was r«civcd by Sena tor Voorhees, ex-Sc< rctary Thomson and a committee, and with his < onipanions, was driven to the Normal scliool building, in front of which a stand had been erected for the formalities of the reception. The populace seemed on fire with enthusi asm, ac' oinpanying thecarriages on their way, and maintaining one unceasing din of cheers. Thousands of national flags were flying from the window along the way, and many build ings were elaborately decorated with bunting. It was dark before the reached its stand, and the time for the departure of the train was already past. The great square con tained, as nearly ns could be estimated by tho glare of electric light, more than 26,000 per- Scnator Voorhees called the assemblage to order, asked f*»r xileuec and announced that Hon.

The president replied as follows: I Lave .traveled now thio igh the state of In diana, and seen something of its fer ility aid wealth and Lt de ol its people. It seems fitting that, ns we leave its borders, we should, after the manner ot parting gue-ts, pause for a m unent and express the pleasure which this brief visit to your state has afforded us. I am t dd, too, that Terre Haute is one of the most beautiful cities of which Indiana can burst, and thi* causes me to regret that I know so little about it, and have so little oppor tunity now to see it. 'I he fact that this particular neighborhood forms the richest portion of a very rich and productive *tate, is a < au.’c of congratulation, which, doubtless, you fully appreciate. But of all your products, per haps the most widely known is the “Tall Sycamore of the Wabash,” for this place has been pretty well advertised as the home of that particular lofty tree. During the last two and a half years 1 have become somewhat acquainted with this sycamore, and have m ide up my mind that he has height enough and size enough for any locality, or for any purpose. 'I he name of your city indicates its beautiful and commanding location, the rich and fertile c aintry nil ah ut il, its excellent means of transportation and comnvin'cation, and its extensive manufactures and industries already in operation, deprive its citi zens of any excuse if it shall not further expand and prosper. The kind greetingsand hearty wel come which have been accorded us by the citizens of Indiana make us feel that we are parting with friends, and we shall remember none among them with more grateful pleasure than tl c people of Terre Haute. ♦ The train left Terre Haute fifty-six minutes late, and as it moved off a hundred hands were stretched upward, and their owners sought to follow the train, many climbing to the railsand clamoring for the coveted grasp. “No,” said tho president, “I w’ill shake no hands from a moving train ; some of you will get killed or hurt. 1 want no such responsi bility.” During and after dinner there was an inter change of novel experiences. Colonel Lamont, Mr. Bissell and Dr. Bryant had been impris oned upon the stand after the speech-making, and for ten minutes or more were unable to move a limb. Au artist and two journalists had suffered a similar misfortune at the stand, and again at tho station, finally reaching tho train with aching ribs and disord- red apparel. The president and Mrs. Cleveland had .suffered no personal inconvenience, but were delayed at one point briefly, the leading horses of their carriage having become so frightened by the artillery discharge and shouting multi tude that it was necessary to de tach them, and on the way to the station a middle-aged enthusiast grasped the president's carriage from behind. The driver whipped up ami tried to leave him, but ; iu vain. The president’s escort ordered the man away, but he emphatically refused, and two or three of the mounted men tried to ride him down, but he cursed savagely and refused to budge. Mrs. Cleveland turned to him, and said: “Please 10l go, sir,” And tho fellow dropped off as if shot, and ' slunk away in the darkness. The throngs, like those at Altoona, were good-natured, and though turbulent and some times wildly de monstrative, were harmless. During absence of the excursionists from the train, at fl’erre Haute, considerable difficulty xvas experienced by the railroad people in protecting it from the mob of vandals who remained at the station. One man, armed with a large carving knife, was found trying to chip off a piece of the president’s car as a memento. A mischievous fellow, who was somewhat intoxicated, sought an entrance to the train from the rear, and being refused, went forward and succeeded in uncoupling the cars. A dozen rail road men were ordered out and put ou patrol duty around it. There were bon fires, torch and and Chinese lantern displays and brass band .serenades at nearly all the stations between Terre Haute and St. Louis. It was not intended that any stops should be made, but the locomotive seemed to need water or oil at very short intervals; and where cvcr a stop was made a multitude was found in waiting. At Effingham the platform area, ten by fifteen feet in extent, gave wav. Thirty or forty people disappeared, and their fall was not more than two or three feet, and so far as could be seen or heard no one was hurt. COFFINS MADE OF PAPER. Some of the Novel and ingenious Methods by V» hich Paper is Being Utilized. From the New York Mail. • Jlcre i- a neat style of coffin,” remarked a mmu facturer of such articles to a Mail and Express repjrter yesterday afternoon. “It is the latest thing out, and is really quite popular.” Tiie coffin did not seem to be diffeient from the ordinary kind of casket. It was plain in .style and thiished in rosewood, beautifully marked. 'Hie handies wore of solid silver, and the inside was handsomely covered with cushioned trimming of white silk, neatly quilted. It was evidently a coffin th u any modest man of simple tastes could offer no oLji ction to being buried in. “What do you think of it?” “It is a very neat sort of a coffin, but I don’t SCO iiiaikable about It.” “Lift one end of it.” The reporter arched his back, grasped the handles firmly, and put his strength into a lift.

The President Liberates a Rev enue Prisoner. $1,250,250 WORTH OF BONDS BOUGHT. Washington. September 26.—Tho total amount of bonds purchased by the treasury de partment today under the circular of the 22d inst. was .*4,253,250, of w hich 5i,07fi,200 were 4 \ per cents and $177,050 4 per cents. The total amount of money already paid out for bonds under this circular is $9,553,423, which represents $8,184,050 principal and $1,408,773 premium ; 4.\ per cent bonds $3,827,350 prin cipal and $321,489 premium. These payments are. in addition to Wednesday's purchases of $11,565,300 4 \ percent bonds under the previous circular. The interest due October first on four percent bonds, amounting to $6,671,000, was paid by the treasurer today without re bate, so it will be seen that the treasury de partment has recently put considerable money into circulation and* lias nearly extinguished the surplus of receipts for the present mouth. About two-thirds of the amount paid for to day’s purchases of bonds was disbursed at New York and Boston, the remainder being paid at Washington, Philadelphia and Cincinnati. —_ The Apaches in Arizona Threaten Trouble- What it is Al! About. Washington, September 26.—The war de partment has been aware for some time of threatened trouble at San Carlos Indian re servation in Arizona. The situation there bears a resemblance to that which existed a the U te reservation beforeColorow’s departure last summer, and in both cases trouble appears to have arisen from attempts by state and ter ritorial officials to enforce civil processes on the Indians. In the present case the war depart ment is informed that a constable with forty deputies is endeavoring to serve a civil process through an interpreter. It is believed at the department that any attempt to arrest the In dians will lead to a general stampede. Al though nominally under the control of the in terior department, the conduct of affairs at San Carlos reservation is really in the hands of a captain in the army. tinder his general powers he has authority to expel intruders from the reservation and might refuse to allow a constable or any other civil officer to cross the lines of tho tion, but he has no force at his command to enforce an order of this kind. On the borders of the reservation at Fort Thomas and Fort Apache there are garrisons of four companies of infantry and four of cavalry, forming a part of General Miles’ command. A prominent army officer this morning said tho killing of the post trader was liki'ly to cause trouble in itself. The Indian who killed Trader Horton was himself killed while attempting to escape. The- people of Arizona, he said, do not relish the idea of the Apaches living upon the best mineral lands in the territory, and are anxious to got ri«l of them. Nobody wants them, and there does not appear to be a suitable reserva tion open in any other state or territory. Gen eral Miles has proposed to remove the Indians to a point on t lie Colorado or Mohave river, but the land there is arid and almost un inhab itable, and the Indians would have to be taken there by force. “Altogether the out look for the Indians in future is not encour aging,” said the officer. The Train Which is Io Convey the President and Wife Through the Country. \\ ashington, September 29.—The special train which is to convey the president and Mrs. Cleveland through the west and south arrived here from Wilmington this afternoon, and is attracting much attention. It is a mar vel of tasteful elegance, and seems to lack nothing which.money could purchase or human ingenuity devise ami construct to make travel ing comfortable. Three Pullman cars—the “Alfaratta,” “Velasco” and “I*. I*. C.”—are so connected as to form one continuous car, traversable from end to end without opening a door or suffering exposure to the weather. The private quarters of the president and Mrs. Cleveland arc in the “P. P. C.”—-Mr. Pull man’s private car—which contains a parlor, bedroom, dressingroom and commodious ob servatory, the walls of the latter being almost entirely of plate will be the rear car after the train passes Baltimore, affording its occupants from the observatory and wide safely railed platform behind it an unolistructed view of the country. The middle car is, in general features, pat terned after the familiar Pullman sleeper model, but embodies in its details all the later improvements made by Mr. Pullman. The first ear contains a.smoking room, library, bar ber shop and bath room. The train is fresh from tho shops, and is newly upholstered throughout in the. richest velvets, pannellings and the carvings of oak, cherry and maple are in keeping with the rest. Bric-a-brac, ferns and flowers in vases, and a parlor organ are among the incidentals of the train's furniture. Room is found in the corners, invisible to the passengers, for an engine and dynamo, which are to furnish electricity for lighting tho train and ringing its helis, and for the cooking range and the entire out lit of a first-class kitchen. The President Sets a Revenue Prisoner at IJberty. Washington, D. C., September 39.—[Spe cial. |--In granting a pardon to John W. Brooks, convicted of violating tho internal revenue laws in Georgia, and sentenced March 15.1887, to seven months imprUobment, the preddent says: “It seems t j be that the law is not administered in the best manner, when, as in tills case, a man of previous goo<l character and a law-abiding citizen is sentenced to seven months’ impiisoßinent tor working for ethol’s one day in au illicit distillery csjK'cialiy w hen he pl -ads guilty, shows evidence of sincere repentance, and di'dos -s the names of his employers: and when b. his impris mment four helpless, motherless children are left to care of strangers.” Brooks was arrested in Meriwether county, and the charge against, him was working in an illicit distillery. Jlc had worked but one day, the still being captured that night. The par don was recomm<nded by District Attorney Hill for reasons ?-et forth in the president’s I letter. “Tho case, as presented Io the. president, I may have warranted his using the language I hi* did,” said one of Judge Newman’s ad mirers; “but I am sure you will find, that an : examination nf the record in the case will show : that Judge Newman ‘lid right.” The official report of the testimony is as fol lows: Deputy Collector J.

[simed.j w. a. Baugh. Hon. Ben Hill, United States district attor ney, was asked if he remembered the circum stances surrounding the case. He said: “John W. Brooks was arraigned upon a charge of carrying on the business of a distiller without government license, and also of work ing in an illicit distillery. H<? pleaded guilty to both charges. 'I he evidence .showed that he wa i caught by the officers working in an il licit distillery. As this was his first offense, .fudge Newman inflicted a light s<mtcnce — seven months’ imprisonment and sffX)fine. “Since that sentence and the imprisonment, additional facts were brought to my notice. These showed that Brooks was -.imply a hire ling, and had worked only one day when ar rested. It was also ascertained that Brooks • liad a w ife and four children Buffering for the jjee» -a? i<-of ij f« . and that th< < needed his I attention. Ills character, previous to this of- I sense, was tkat of a peaceable, law-abiding citizen. In his sentences of offenders against the in i ternal revenue laws, Judge Newman has put * into practical use the principle stated by Mr. ' Hill. Men chargi d with working only, have i in almost no case, n ceived a sentence exceed ing Iwo months’ imprisonment, while a largo > number havo been sentenced to only on« month.
