Soon after U o'clock Pretiideiit Cleve land and his asKuciates appeared at the entrance of the Lexington hotel and were con diluted to carriages. When all was in readiness the procession moved down Michigan avenue, cheered by the thousands who lined the curb, cluttered and rumbled the cavalcade; turned into the grand Ismlevard at Thirty-fifih street and into Washington Park at Filty-llrat street; from the park into Midway I'lais ance, now a medley of all nations, and from it into the great White city and to the administration building, w here the ceremonies of the day were to take place. Passing through the building the nota bles came out upon the platform at the east Bide, looking out Ukii the grand plaza and the court of honor. The plaza was black with ieople, the whole scene forming one ot the most remarkable and enchanting in history . All the ollicials and invited guilts not in the procession were seuted on the platform, and as the head of the nuticn walked down the main aisle to its outer edge a tumult of cheers shook the air.

After an orchestral overature, Director- General lavis, as master of ceremonies, made the opening address as follows : The dedication of these grounds and buildings for the purposes of an inter national exhibition took place October 21 bust, at which time they were accepted for the objects of which they were des tined by the action of congsess. This is not the time nor place, neither will it be expected of me, to give a comprelmnsive resume of the strenuous efforts which were put forth to complete the work to which we invito your inspection today. I may be permitted, however, to say a work of praise of and in gratitMile to the muny eo-olficers and the official staff who form the great organization which hits made this consummation possible. This exposition is not the conception of any single mind; it is not the result of any single, effort, but the grandest con ception of all the minds and the best obtainable result ot all the efforts put forth by all the people who in any man ner contributed to its creation. The great commanding agencies through which the government authorized this work to proceed are: Tho national commission, consisting of 108 men and alternates selected from the several status anil territories, presidod over by Hon. Thomas Palmer, of Michigan ; the corporation of the state of Illinois known as the World's Columbian Exposition, consisting of forty-five directors, presided over by Mrs Totter Talmer, of Chicago. To theso great agencies wisely selected by congress, and each performing its special function, the gratitude of the people of this country and the cordial recognition of all these friendly foreign representatives is due. To perfect from theBe agencies an efficient organization was our first duty. And it was success fully accompli-ihed at the outset through committees., subsequently by great executive departments, and through these departments systematic, vigorous and effrctive work progressed. Through the department of administra tion, the department of finance, the department of works and the great exhibit department, the plan and scope of this grand international exposition was worked out. The department of finances, composed of members of the Illinois corporation, has, with disinterest edness remarkable, with courage un daunted, successfully financed the expo sition and provi'led for the great work upward of $20,000,000. The department of works and its many bureaus of artists, architect engineers and builders have transformed these grounds, which is twenty-one months ago were an onsightly, uninviting and unoceupied stretch of landscape, into the beauty and splendor of today. They have conspicuously performed their functions, and these grand avenues, these Venetian waterways, finished landscapes, fountains and sculpture and colonnades, and these grand palaces stand out a monuments to their genius and skill, supplemented by the labor of that great army of skilled artisans and workmen, all citizens of this republic. The chiefs of the great departments, who exploited this mighty enterprise and gathered here the exhibits forming the pictures set in this magnifhient frame, have confirmed the wisdom of their selection. No state or territory of the Union escaped their voice ; no land on the globe that has a language but what was visited, and the invitations of the president of the United States personally presented. Fortunately at the inception of this enterprise our government was, and still is, at peace with the whole world. Commissioners were sent to Europe, Asia, Australia, British, North America and the islands of the seas; so todav the -whole woild knows and is familiar with the signifi cance of the great peace festival we are about to inaugurate upon the campus, and an na,iong join in celebrating the event which it commemorates. This enclosure, containing nearly 700 acres, covored by more than 400 structures, from the small pavillion, occupying an ordinary building site, to the colossal structure of the manufacturer's and liberal art's building, covering over thirty acres, is filled and crowded with displays of the achievements and pro ducts of the hand and mind of man, such as has never before been presented to mortal vision. The habits, customs and lile of the people of our own and foreign lands are shown in variegated plaisance. Tlio.ie stately buildings on the north, filled with historical treasures and the natural products of our several states, the artistic, characteristic and beautiful edifices of the headquarters of the foreign commissions, surrounding the gallery of the fine arts, which in itself will be an agreeable surprise to the American beholder, constitute the grand central sone of social and friendly amenities among the different people of the earth. Surrounding this grand plaza where we stand, and reaching from the north pond to the extreme south, is the great mechanical, scientific, industrial and agricultural exhibition of the re sources and products of the world. These have been secured from the four quarters of the globe, and placed in systematic order under the supervision of these great departments, and, while all the material upon the ground is not yet in place, I am gratified to be able to present to the president of the United States at this time the official catalogue containing the description and location of the exhibits of 40,000 participants in the exposition . The number of exhibi tors will exceed 60,000 when everything is in place. The citizens of our country are proud, and always will be proud, of the action of the congress of the United States of America in authorizing and directing this celebration to take place, and for appropriations of more than $5,000,000 in its aid, and for the unswevering sup port and encouragement of the officers of the government. To the states of the Union we are largely indebted for active and substantial support. A sum in ex cess of $0,000,000 has been raised and ex pended by the states and teritories for official use in promoting their own in terests conjointly with the general suc cess of the exhibition. To the foreign nations who have a representation upon the grounds never before witnessed at any exposition, as is Bhown by the grand exhibits they have brought here, and the hundreds of official representatives ol foreign governments who are present on this occasion, we bow in grateful thanks. More than $0,000,000 has been oflicialy appiopriated for these commis sions in the furtherance of their participa tion in the exposition. The great nations of Europe and their dependencies are all represented on these grounds. The governments of Asia and Africa and the republics of the Western hemisphere are, with few exceptions, here represented. To the citizens and tho corporation of the city of Chicago, who furnished $11, 000,000 as a contribution, and in addi tion loaned the management $5,000,000 more, are due the grateful acknowledg ment of our own people and the honored guests who share the advantages of this great international festival. To the tens of thousands of exhibitors who contributed a larger amount than all others combined we are nnder the deeepest obligations for their interest and their co-operation in our work. To the women of Chicago and our great land, whose prompt, spontaneous and enthusiastic co-operation in our work turned the eyes of the world toward the exposition as toward new star in the east, the inspiration of womanhood everywhere, we extend our cordial and unstinted recognition. It is our hope that this great exposition may inaugu rate a new era of moral and material progress, and our fervent aspiration that the association of the nations here may secure not only largerand stronger friend ship, but lasting peace throughout the world. The grand concerted illustration of modern progress, which is here pre sented for the encouragement of art, science, industry and commerce, has necessitated the expenditure, including; the outlay of our exhibitors, largely in excess of $100,000,000. We have given it our constant thought. Our mort de voted service, our best energy; and now in this central citv of this great re public on the continent discovered by Columbus, whose distinguished depend ants are present, the honored guests of our nation, it only remains for you, Mr. President, if in your opinion the exposi tion here presented is commensurate indignity with what the wdrld should expect of our great country, to direct it to be opened to the public, and when you touch this magic key the ponderous machinery will start in. its revolutions and the activities of this exposition will begin. pbesidext Cleveland's adlbess. The director-general then presented Cleveland, who was kept waiting several minutes until the applause should sub side, when, with bared head be spoke as follows. I am here to join my fellow citizens in congratulations which befit the occasion. Surrounded by the etupenduous results of American enterprise and activity, and in view of the magnificent evidence of American skill and intelligence, we need not fear that these congratulations will be exaggerated. We stand today in the presence of the oldest nations of the world and point to the great achieve ments we here exhibit, asking no allow ance on the score of youth. The en thusiasm with which we comtemplate our work has intensified the warmth of the greeting we extend to those who have come from foreign lands to illustrate with us the growth and progress of human endeavor in the direction of higher civilization. We who believe that popular education and a stimulation ot the best impulses of our citizens lead the way to the realization of the proud national destiny which our faith prom ises, gladly welcome the opportunity here afforded us to see the results ac complished by efforts which have been exerted longer than ours in the field of man's improvements, while in apprecia tive return we exhibit the unparalleled advancement and wonderful accomplish ment of our young nation, and present the triumph of vigorous self-reliance of an independent people. We have built these splendid edifices, but we have also built the magnificent fabric of a popular government whose grand portions are seen throughout the world. We have made and gathered together for object use the beauty and products of American skill and invention. We have also made men who rule themselves. It is an ex alted mission in which we and our guests from other lands are engaged, and as we co-operate in the inauguration of an enterprise devoted to human enlighten ment and in the undertaking we here enter upon, we exemplify in the noblest sense the brotherhood of nations. Le us hold fast to the meaning that under lies this ceremony, and let us not Ic-e the impressiveness of this moment. As by a touch the machinery that gives life to this vast exposition is now set in mo tion, now at the same instant let our hopes and aspirations awaken the forces which in all times to come shall influ ence the welfare, dignity and freedom of mankind. As he concluded, the yast throng Baw him extend his hand to the button of the golden key, which released the pent up steam in the great engines, set the chimes ringing, and unfurled a myriad of flags from the great building, and the stupendous enterprise commemorating the 400th anniversary of Columbus' great achievement was in full swing. ' The president and officials were then entertained at luncheon, and made the rounds of the buildings. Blank note, receipt and order books at the Enterprise office.
