In the background is a tent with banner labeled 'J. Blaine' and decked with floral wreaths that state 'With Compliments J. Gould' and 'With Compliments from C. Field', also one shaped like a horseshoe from 'R. Sage'. Whitelaw Reid stands outide the tent, holding a bucket and a sponge labeled 'Tribune' and W.W. Phelps peaks through the flaps with a concerned look on his face. Among those in the grandstand on the left are Almon M. Clapp, George M. Robeson, Alonzo B. Cornell, John Roach, and Thomas J. Brady.
