BUFFALO. September 5—Presi-
dent's Day at the Pan-American Expo-
sition dawned bright and clear with
the temperature sufficiently low to
make the day all that could be desired.
it was evident from the crowds on
the streets. early in the morning that
the attendance would be large. Busi-
ness houses and private residences
were gully decorated with flags and
bunting. and banners were stretched
from window and across streets, hear-
ing words of welcome to the president”
and expressive of the sentiment which
the great fair is designed‘to foster,
"Peace to Pan-America."
Although the time announced for the
departure of the president from the
home of Mr. Milburn in Delaware ave-
nue was 10 o‘clock, crowds began to
gather In front of the house as early
as 9 o‘clock.
Promptly at to o'clock the president
emerged from the home of Mr. Mllburn.
Mrs. McKinley accompanlng him, walk-
ing by his side without assistance. A
great burst of cheers greeted them,
which the president acknowledged by
bowing and raising. his hat. The pres-
first carriage and Mrs. John 6. Mil

Mrs William Hamlin, of the body of
women managers, the second.

trot for the Lincoln Park way entrance

the entrance to the exposition grounds.
» the president was met by detachments
of the United» States Marine and the
Sea Coast Artillery, and the 65th and
the 74th N. G. S. N. Y. regiments. un-
der General 8. M. Welch. A presi-
dent's salute of twenty-one guns was
fired. The president was at once escort~
ed to the stand erected in the espion—
ude, where probably the greatest crowd
ever assembled there greeted him with
ringing cheers. The vast assemblage
overflowed to the Court of Fountains.
in the stand on each side of the presi-
dent were denied many distinguished
men and women, among them represen-
tatives of most of the Smith American
republics.
There was almost absolute quiet
when President John G.'Mllburn arose
and introduced the president, as fol—
low: “Ladies and Genetlemen: The
President."
The great audience then broke out
with a mighty cheer, which was con-
tinued as President McKinley arose.
and it was some minutes before he was
able to proceed. When quiet was re-
stored the president spoke as follows:
d “itladies and Gentlemen: The presi-

Buchanan, Commissioner, ladies and
