President McKlnloy had for his companions
In his carriage members ot tho committee
specially chosen by congress to take chargo
of the Inauguration, headed by Senator
Mark Harm, himself a national figure.
The American navy, which has so dis
tinguished Itself In the Inst four yenrs, was
represented In the ceremonies moro nu-
1 mcrously than ever before. Halt n dozen
; warships, moro than has assembled In tho

contributed through their sailors nnd mu

of n hanty breakfast beforo setting out for

The livery stables of the city were taxed

Along tho Court ot Honor, nnd In its Im

which were making rendy to build up tho

in a pr'eity close formation from the White
Houso down the avenue to Kloventh street.
Overcoats were the order of the day. This
detracted somewhat from the brilliancy of

by full dress, but having In mind the long
unit that tho regulars have lo submit to
while tho c,orcmonfesare going on nt the
capltol, the olllccrs leaned toward the side
of safety.
Soon after 10 o'clock the street cars were

The White Hotire was astir early this

tho capltol kept the president well supplied
with bills for bbi consideration until lute
in the night. It wni fully a half hour earlier
than usual when breakfast was served. Up to
10 clock the admiral of the nnvy was the
only culler that the president saw nnd their
conference was quite brief.
Several members of the cabinet called
later In the morning to look over any bills
that had cnnip from congress, nnd remained
until it was time to go to tho capltol.
It wns a few minutes after 10 o'clock
when Troop A ot Cleveland, eighty men,
commanded by Captain Hants, tiled Into
tho Whlto Houso grounds through tho east

In his honor. Mr. Roosevelt early this

nnd cnrnatlons, each flower sot in a
separate tiny sliver trumpet full ot water.
A llttlo before 10 o'clock Senator Spooncr,

Soon after Squadron A of New York, bril

tho members of the cabinet took places In
their own carriages, and with a trumpet

In one of the .carriages Admiral Dewey

Pennsylvania, aycnjjo to rcnc.h tho rear of
tho escorting column nnd mnrched past tho
Whlto House again at 10:50 o'clock. Grand
Marshal Greene and staff were at the head
of tho line. A body of picked policemen,

their every day raiment.
A notable feature In this section of tho
column was a colored contingent composed
of a few score of tho negroes who had served
their country during tho civil war. Squad

Tho progress ot thu curriago was marked

Much enthusiasm was developed ns tbo
