Considering everything yesterday di
not open inauspiciously for the rcccf

fiky was somewhat overcast , but enl
mifliciently to add a bracing tone t
the air , and make podestrianism
pleasant oxorciso. To a person ji
coming down toWu yesterday th
city presented a nala appearance
Looking elown Farnham strce
from the city hall an unit
teruptcel stream of banners was pro
ncntcd , Almost every house alon
the line has thrown out some recogn
tion of the Swngorfest in the shape c
bunting or Hags , and many of th
buildings were decorated elaborate ! )
In the decoration of the rcaidonccs e
Gorman citizens especially groc
boughs and leaves formed iiifportAt
itoms. The tri-color floated ovorj
whcro underneath the stars -an
stripes , typifying the reunion of tli
Tcntouic race in the land of the frci
In many instances people not satii
fied with ordinary decorations swath
ud the entire front of their building
in the tri-color.
Flags anel bunting and gay cole :
and streamers were to bo seen over ;
whcro. At frequent intervals alor
Fdrnhnm street garlands , elaborate
with buntinf and small ilags , woi
stretched between opposite building
Sacngcr hall , at Fifteenth and Capit
avenue , showed up beautifully in tl
morning sunlight. Turner hall wi
elaborately dcceratcd , Max Moyci
building fairly bristled with Unite
States tings and innumerable othi
bliildings , both of a private and sem
public character , showed not only tl
taato of the occupant , but their desi
to do honor to the visitors. Taken i
a Vholo the decorations in all par
of the city were in exceeding gee
taste. *
Tiio streets themselves , outside
the moro decorations , presented
scene of more than ordinary activit
Many people from a distance who hi
come to Omaha to see the sight , we

At the depot the party was met I
Mr. Max Meyer and Mr. Adol {

into the depot , but the conunitti
were disappointed in the fact that tl
visiting societies failed to arrive upc
that train. The only persons to arrii
were Prof. Strausser and his orche

cessitatcd a change in the committee
programme.
At 5 o'clock the committee and bar

meeting the societies from St. Josopl
Atchison and Lcavenworth. Tlio trai

revolt and much bloodshed is feared
beforu order is again restored.
The police have already investeel
the place and are only waiting the ar
rival of troops to begin an attack on
the place. At Schull , however , mat
ters are quieter this afternoon , and
troops who were stationed there have
left for Skibbereen. Authorities hesro
are deiing all in their power to intimi
date people from a general rising.
