A DAY OF OVERWHELMING TRIUMPH FOR THE ALLIED TROOPS. AMERICAN TROOPS PASSING THROUGH THE ALBERT GATE DURING THE GREAT VICTORY PAGEANT, WHICH WAS HEADED BY SIR DOUGLAS HAIG. The huge procession, tn which all the Allied nations were represented, occupied 2½ hours in passing, and was hailed with delight by millions of people. Features of the march were the heart-stirring cheers for Marshal Foch, Sir Douglas Haig, Admiral Beatty (who was deeply moved), General Pershing, and the gallant women, though, indeed, everyone in the march was thunderously acclaimed. London was brilliantly beflagged for the occasion, while the tornado of cheers which resounded all along the route has never been equalled in intensity in the world’s history.
