President’s Address.
CHICAGO, May 2.—It was 10 o’clock last
night when the Colum bian guards chased
the last straggler from the VVorld’s fair
grounds, and the White City, which all
day had been the scene of great‘ activity,
haunted by myriads of people and hon-
ored by the presence of the chief executive
of the nation, was left to silence and sol-
itude. It was a great day — big with
the fulfillment of many hopes and aspiras
tions—which begun under lowering skies,
culminated in the Opening of the exposi-
tion by the president of the United States
and ended in the scintillating glare of
myriads of electric lights, which flashed
from the mighty buildings along the
lagoons.
There was no hitch in the program. The
distinguished descendant of the great ad-
miral in whose honor the spectacle was in-
augurated, was escorted frOm the Audito—
rium hotel to the Lexington, where Presi-
dent Cleveland and his suite were in wait-
ing, and the two parties combined were
taken' 1n proceSSion through miles of streets

lined with cheering thousands to the
grounds of the exposition. There the for-
mal exercises Were gone through with.
The blind chaplain of the national con-
gress invoked the blessing of God upon
the undertaking about to be consum-
mated; a poem celebrating the voyage of
Columbus was readin a manner fitting
the time and place; Director General Davis
presented the completed buildings to the
president of the United States, and that
officer, representing the power and ma-
jesty of sixty millions of American citi-
zens, after a brief but singularly apt and
happy speech, declared the Worlds Col-
umbian 'exposition fully opened. The
president spoke as follows:
The Presidents Speech.
' .“I am here to join my fellow citizens in
the congratulations which befit this occa-
sion. Surrounded by the stupendous Ire-
sul ts of American enterprise and activity,
ml in view of magnificent evidences of.
American skill and intelligence, we need
not fear that these congratulations will be
exaggerated. We stand today in the pres-
ence of the oldest nations of the world,
point to the great achievements we here
exhibit, asking no allowance on the score
it youth. The enthusiasm with which we
contemplate our work intensifies the
warmth of the greeting we extend to those
who have come from foreign landsto illus-
trate with us the growth and progress of
human endeavor in the direction of a
higher civilization.
"We who believe that popular education
and the stimulation of the best impulses
of our citizens lead the way to a realiza-
tion of the national destiny which our
faith promises, gladly welcome the oppor-
’ tunity here afforded us to see the results
' accomplished by efforts which have been ,
exerted longer than ours in the field of
man’s improvement, while in appreciative
return we exhibit the unparalleled ad-
vancement and wonderful accomplish-
ments of a young nation, and present the
. triumphs of a vigorous, self reliant and
independent people. We have built these
splendid edifices, but we have also built
r. the magnificent fabric of apopular gov-
, -9 ernment, whose grand proportions are seen
~; throughout the world. We have made
. "and here gathered together objects of use
‘ 31.11 beauty, the products of American skill
and invention; we have also made men

For five years pa st I have been tor tin ed with
a blood and skin disease known in medical par-
lance as “Herpes.” It manifested itself in

The fiery burning sensation was intolerable.
My face was disfigured, my hands, arms, feet
and body felt as if they had been poisoned !
Proximity to my kitchen stove and all exer.

to thrust my feet out of bed in the coldest
nights. I lost flesh for lack of necessary sleep

'A Brilliant Transformation.
\Vhen the president finished he touched ‘
the butt-011 which was to start the ma-
chinex'y and open the exhibition. The
touching. of the button was the signal for
the audience to burst into a thunderous
shout. The orchestra played the hallelujah
chmus, the wheels of the great Allis engine
in Machinery hall began to revolve, the
fountains in the lagoon threw up their .
jets of water. a flood of water gushed from
the McMonnies fountain and fell into the
basin, and the thunder of artillery came
from the vessels in _the lake. At the same
time chimes 1n Manufacturers’ hall and on
the German building rang out a merry
peal, and overhead the flags at the tops of
the pol"es 1n front of the platform fell apart
and revealed two gilded- models of the
ships in which Columbus first sailed to
American shores.
Hundreds of flags of all nations and all
colors were also unfurled within sight of
the platform, and an immense United
States flag fell out from the top of the
central staff in front of the stand. The
roof of the Manufacturers’ building was
gorgeous in red gonfalons, while the Ag-
ricultural building was dressed in banners
of orange and white. It was a wonderful
and brilliant scene of transformation, and
while it was taking place- the cannon con-
tinued to thunder and the crowd to cheer.
When the demonstration had spent its
force, the band played ‘ ‘America,” and the
exercises were at an end.
T110 President’s Reception.
The greeting to the president was hearty
and vociferous. It came first when his
genial face was seen above the heads of the
diplomats and commissioners in the grand
stand. It was repeated when he stepped
forward to make his modest address, and
for the third time it rose when the signal
was sent and the great achievement of the
century was inaugurated But only part
of this honor was Cleveland’s; the rest was
in acknowledgement of the event which
that roar from Machinery hall, that sud-
den outflow of flags as if a rainbow had
been splinter ed above the buildings,t that
booming of cannon and that triumphal
chorus signalized.
It was unfortunate that this pait of the
day’s proceedings should have been
marred by what might have been aserious
panic. Always anxious to see and hear,
as American crowds are, some of those in
the rear began to push' in hopes of gaining
more advantageous positions from which
to witness the pi oceedings on the plat
form. The 11101 ement attracted the atten- .
tion of those on the platform and orders
were given to the police to clear away the
jam that began to threaten the platform.
Oflicers sprang into the 01 owd, but it was
some minutes befoie their efforts Were
successful, and when the dense mass of
people had been in some degree separated
twenty persons had been taken out in a
fainting condition. Fortunately, how-
ever, 110 one was seriously hurt and a
great calamity was avoided.
Of course, it was a big crowd to handle,
for Director of Wo1ks Burnham declared
that 440,000 people had passed the tum-
stiles since daylight—a number far in ex-
cess of the most sanguine expectations. To
» take care of such a multitude with only
one accident that could be called serious—
for all the other casualties of the day were
trivial- -—was therefore a matter for con-
gratulation among the ofl‘icers of the ex-
positiOn. When the crowd that had
choked up the entrance to the Administra-
tion Plaza had dispersed after the cere-
monies them was more room to move about
with freedom. The president and other
distinguished guests entered the Admin-
istration building.
After dinner the president wearily took
up the line of march for the Manufac-
tures building. where he did the courte-
sies to a throng of foreigners and officials.
Then he was hurried to the Women’s
building, W how he listened to the dedica-
tion Speeches of M18. Potter Palmer and
others. The Irish v illage next claimed his
attention, and aftei that he boarded a
naphtha launch and made a flying trip
through the lagoons. Having thus made
the grand tour of the exposition- he was
thoroughly tired out and the rest of the
time until his special train started for
Washington was spent in his car chatting
with friends and visitors. ,
Meanwhile the great Ameiican public
was ha\' 111g the full run of the grounds
for the first time, and was enjdying itself
thoroughly. It was cloudy all afternoon,
but no lain fell, and the sidewalks and
snot-ts, 11 bile they were by no means
mo '1. is of cleanliness so far as absence of
mud was concerned, were in good condi-
tion 1‘01 active pedestrians. The crowd
did: mt mind the mud anyhow and from
noon til! the last gate was closed the broad
avenues were alive with throngs moving
from one to another of the big buildings
and every one saw all the sights pessible,
and at last, 1'. hen the hour for departure
arrived, went away with the firm resolu-
tion to come again.
