Tin' most noted arrival of the day was
AIlM Clara barton , head of the Kod'Cross
pouluty In America , and a woman who
Inifl donu more for the soldiers of all na-
tloiiH In tline.M of war , anil unfortunate

tain features of tliu Kud Cross hitherto
unknown to ( lie general pnbliu and can

New Knilaiidor by birth , but has passed
most of her years in Washington , having
dovotc | ! u life time and n largu fortune-

friend of the ( tommns , nnd when lately
lit Milwaukee they received her with
roial honors , even going so far as to un-
hltcli the horses from her

Mis * itarton'a kindness to the Prussian

Till : SPECIAL. TRAINS.
The delegates and comrades and
friends wcro expected about 11 o'clock
yesterday morning1. The first install
ment , however , did not arrive until 3
o'clock in the afternoon. They were de
layed four hours on the Grain ! Trunk ,
and left Chicago that length of lime be
hind the schedule hour. At the hour
mentioned the section specilicd , over the
Chicago , Milwaukee & St. Paul railroad ,
rolled into the transfer depot. It was
drawn by Engine 22:3. : Edward Collon
was the engineer and C. E. Mitchell the
conductor. It comprised the following
Pullman Bloopers : Metropolis , Cataract ,
Conewago. Brocton , Clcartield , llumbcr ,
Achates , bwatara , Owanica. besides a
dining and baggage car. This train ,
although arriving ilrst , left the east as
the second section. A mixing up took
place at Surma , in which the order of the
trains was destroyed. It also caused the
separation of the state delega
tions to that degree that , while the
people from each state started
out in company , their cars became
hopolcfchly mixed up in flio several trains.
With this exception , the journey of tlio
section mentioned , was devoid of excit
ing episode. The parties on noard , however -
over , enjoyed themselves to their hearts'
content. Nearly all of them started out
as strangers , but when they arrived at
the Din lit ) they were like a largo family at
a Thanksgiving reunion. There was an
excellent representation of ladies. Among
those wore misses in their teens and
matrons in the fifties. Some were plain ,
others pretty , while the appearance ot
the whole party was tliat of intelligence
and relinomt-nt which attracted general
admiration. Ono of the most conspicuous
figures was that of a woman , possibly
fifty years of ago. She was dressed in n
dark dress , with massive rotundity of
form , and masculine fo'itures , the head
of which was surmounted with a soft black
felt hat which bora the traditional
G A. R. letters in the usual scroll of gold.
She wore a badge of tlio same order upon
her breast , and luovud about with won
derful composure , as If nho hud been
"Moll IV.chor" or the wife and mother of
a husband and family who hud laid down
their lives for the Hag. Tins train bore a
number of the Massachusetts and Now
Hampshire delegates and comrades , but
the Salem post of the G. A. R. . with forty
memb-'s , .The New Hampshire people
occupied two cars , tha other iivo being
occupied by travelers from the Granite
Stato. Prominent among the latter , worn
Governor Frederick Robio , the present in
cumbent of the Kubernutorml ouico-
Gonond Bealo , of Norway , chief of tlio
laticr's stafl ; Dr. Hauilcii , nephew of ox-
Vjco President Huudln , audColonelllay-
dor. , of Bath. Besides those there wore
two hundred other ueoplo , each of whom ,
Indies nnd gentlemen , seemed to bo in thou
u ! lest enjoyment of health and in antici
pation "i u very pleasant trip.
SECriOX SECOND.
TJils 5"t 'Jf tlio trala "
v arrived at . , :30 :
p. m. It rolled Into the transfer behind
engine 210 , also of the C. , M. A St. P.
road. The throttle was held by S. A.
Southern. The conductor was E. W.
French. The train comprised n baggage
car. a day coach , a dining car ami the
Pullmanc , "Callais , " "Honoli'lu ' , " "In
ternational , " "Alexandra , " "Occidental , "
"Manhattan. " nnd a special sleeper from
the Hudson River road , which was cm-
blazoned as the headquarters of the Ad
miral Foot post No. 17 G. A. R. , of Now
Haven.
This train should have been the first to
arrive , but it was put out of its place in
: ho martial advance by the mistake above
referred to. Six of the cars mentioned
wcro occupied by Massachusetts people
of whom there wore not less than 1M )
people on board. They were , in the
main of the intelligent nnd relined class
and many of them displayed pretty , hand
some and intellectual faces ; and , while ,
.here were a number of young ladles ,
who would easily have attracted the at-
ontion of love-born swains. They
seemed particularly happv because of
Lho absence ot "spoons , " which arc
nvariably the concomitants of such en-
erprises. The more distinguished pcoplo
of this state have already gone to the
coast , while n few are still to pass hero.
Among them wcro half a dozen post de
partment commanders , the latest of
which is Wm. H. Chamberlain , of Pitts-
ield , who , with his sons and wife , are
.raveling to the coast. The "Interna
tional" contained the Rhode Island people
ple , of whom there wcro fifty. The Hides
of the ear was illumined with a stretch of
muslin on which was painted in bold
characters the name of the state. The
"Manhattan" contained the Now York
lelegalcs , of whom there were fifty more.
The department commander had gone
to the coast three days before by another
route. In this car among the others wuro
J.-iptiiin George Washburne , of the New
York police , and Corporal Tanner , a
gentleman of considerable national rep
utation.
SECTION TI1IU1) .
This part of the train did not reach the
depot until -1:110 : o'clock. It was delayed
on the road near Dohancc by the
bursting of a brake hose , which
required half au hour to replace
with another. This train was drawn by
engine 800. R. A. Nichols was engineer
and Robert Hamilton acted as conductor.
It comprised tbo Worcester cars
" " "C.astclla " " "
"Shaughraun , , "Ruby ,
"Virginia , " "Howard Forrest , " "Jerome
Marble" and "Yellowstone. " Ncarlv
every ono of tbcso coaches bore a legend
on either side setting fortlt the organi
zation of the occupants. Ono bore the
the designation ot "Dablgren post , No.
2 , G. A. R. , Boston to San Francisco. "
Another contained the Mayor Howard
post of the same organization from
Springfield. The car bearing the delega
tion of the Womon's Relief corps was
designated by the following inscription :
"National Headquarters W. 11. C. . from"
the old Bay State 10 the Golden Gate. "
Still another coach hung out the strip ,
"Massachusetts G. A. It. to San Fran
cisco. " This train came through with
out an accident and was more than
usually interesting because of the pres
ence of a great number of ladies. These
in the main comprised the members of
tbo W omen's Relief corps together with a
number of other ladies. In tbo "Jerome
Marble" the occupants , ladies and gentle
men. wore pink silk traveling caps with
black stripes , and looked like a uniform
corps which attracted much attention.
GOVEUNUR FKEDEK1C1C HOKIU.
This gentleman was mnt by the BEE
reporter. He is a man fiffy-live years of
ago. Ho was dressed in a suit of blue
ilamu'l , with a white summer vest and a
coarse brown shirt. His faceis llorid ,
with a light pair of gray side whiskers
and a small goatee ot the same color. It
was his lirst visit to tlio west , ho said ,
and he was surprised to find Omaha a
city of 7o,000 pcoplo. Ho know that -it
was a lively progressive place , but "had
not expected to liud it so far along m the
progress of the times. Ho bad boon gov
ernor of Maine for four years , and pre
viously both before and since tlio war ,
had been for seventeen year a member-
of the state legislature. Part of that
time he had been speaker of the house.
But ho was now tired of public service ,
even though ho had been elected the last
time by a majority of 20,000. Mr. Blaiuo
was in excellent noallh and was now at
Mt. Desert. Tito people of Maine hod
the greatest afl'ection tor him , and would
no doubt jrivc him their earnest support
in tliocvent , of his nomination for the
presidency. In the estimation of Gov
ernor Robio , Mr. Blaino's last defeat
was duo mainly to the tcmpcrnnco pco
plo , whoso mistakes , ho tclt , would not
be committed again Ho had no doubt
that Mr. Blu'mc would bo pleased to run
again for the presidency , and felt that
this time he would bo successful.
COUl'OHAL. TANXEU.
This gentleman was found on the depot
platform. lie wore no coat nor vest and
was drssed m dark-blue pants , ilannol
shirt of tlio same material and a black
silk cap. Ho used a cane and smoked a
fragrant cigar. Ho lost both his logs in
the second Lattlo of Bull's Run. and now
wears artilical limbs. Ho has been
deputy under Mr. Arthur when the lat
ter was collector of the nort of Now
York. Uuntil recently ho illicit the ap
pointive ofllco of collector of taxes of
Brooklyn , but the change of administra
tion to the democracy bus put a member
of the latter pcsuasion in his placo. Ho
is now a candidate for the national com
mander of the G. A. R , , and it is ex
pected that he will poll a strong vote.
Corporal Tanner said that President
Cleveland bad a number of severe
critics in New York , oven among the
members of his own party. Tito old
soldier clement was entirely against him ,
because ot the reckless manner in which
ho had exercised his veto power in the
pension cases. Of course , some of these
deserved to have been vetoed , but there
were others , just ones , tbo proofs of
which lay with people who wcro deader
or on tlio other side of the world , and
which could not bo received in any other
manner than by a special act of con
gress. This did not como with very
good grace from an able-bodied man
who had sent a substitute to the war. If
the soldiers had rot done as they did , by
this time , ho thought , there would bo
no United States government , neither
would there bo a President Cleveland.
CAPTAIN GEOKtti : AVASII11UHNK.
"I am a captain of the Now York po
lice , I have been a member of that body
for twenty-eight j-cara. I think it justi
fies the name of the "llncst police in the
world , because it is large , and it is much
more easy to discipline n largo body of
men than it is u small handful. Besides ,
the members have every inducement to
become reliable. They have life posi
tions , unless they forfeit them by bad
conduct. If they are sick they are as
sisted. If they got injured in the din-
charge of their duties , their medical and
surgical expenses are defrayed by the
city. When they become too old to act
they are pensioned on half pay. After
two year s service , the policeman's wilary
Is § 1,200 a year. Tl ere are now , 200
men on the force and they will bo in"- *
creased to 8,700 before long , There Is
one superintendent with u salary of
$ U,000 , lour inspectors with $3,400 each ,
four sergeants at $1COO each , and twenty-
two captains at $ ' 3,500 per year. The ex
pense of tno force o very year is $ .3,500,000 ,

Everybody yesterday , whether man ,
woman or child , on the train wore a
badge , Some wore two , , others three ,
and some looked like tha war of all the
Russians rath breast bedecoratcd with
lucilaJs andjdbboijs. The Jotter wcro of
all colors audtho former 01 all sjmpcg.
These were of copper , bTass , ff on u
silver and gold. They were fashioned
into squares , circles , " triuugloa , stars ,
suns , and other designs too numerous to
mention , Borne were plum , others moro
elaborate , and displayed not Ijcsa tlt } > lib-
crnllty of the owner or donor than they
ind the skill of the designer and gold
smith. The members of the different de
partments wore distinguished by sym
bols which they wore over their badges ,
Rhode Islanders wore Ji little clam ; Con
necticut , a realistic wooden nutmeg ; Bos-
tonlans , a copper bean pod ; Maine , o
small cone of pine , ami New Hamp
shire n miniature block of granite. Each
wearer was as proud oMiis ornamentum
as Cirsar is supposed to have been on
par ado ,
After the trains had beep unloaded ,
they wcro drawn to tno west side of the
dopott where they departed in the order
in which they had como in. They wcro
all under way before seven o'clock. The
lirst was drawn by engine 710 , with Tom

after the bapgago. The Pullman con
ductors went with the party ,

The Vcrmontcrs wcro in the car "Peri

It took live ticket handlers to accom
modate the crowds.
Some of the delegates had moro badges
than coat covering.

loons were numerous.
It was a busy Sunday for tlio U. P. of
ficials at the depot.
There were 031) ) persons , in round num
