W. 11. Taft Made President.
Washington, March 4. In tho senate
chambor at 12:55 this afternoon, Wil
liam Howard Taft of Ohio swore to
"preserve, to protect and to defend tho
constitution of tho United States" and
by so doing become tho twenty-seventh
president of the United States.
Tho day dawned in altogothor un
favorable manner nnd this morning
Washington was cut off from n large
portion of the surrounding country so
far as communication was conccrnod.
Tho communication broko at 4 o'clock
by n most icvcro snow storm which
brought down a great many telegraph
and telephone poles and rendored othor
wires usolcss. Early in the day some
of tho news was sent out by wireless to
Philadelphia and thero distributed. The
storm at 11 a. m. continuod unpre
cedently and arrangements were made
to hold the inaugural ceremony in tho
senato chamber. Here only a compara
tive handful could bo accommodated,
iustoad of the thousands who had ex
pected to hear Taft on the platform
outside the capitol. Immediately after
the oath President Taft delivered his
inaugural address and finished speak
ing at 1:32.
Just beforo the inauguration of Presi
dent Taft Vice-President-eloct Sher
man took tho ofilco in tho senate
chamber.
When President Taft had completed
his address ox-President Roosevelt
warmly congratulated him and, escorted
by the republican county committee of
Now York, two minutes later started
on foot for the Pennsylvania railroad
station where Mrs. Roosevelt awaited
him. The Roosevelt party left at
3 o'clock for OyBtcr Bay.
Despite the condition of the streets
and tho weather the inaugural parade
started at 1:45. Tho attendanco was not
what had been expected, as a matter of
course, and many thousands who
expected to attend tho inaugural
festivities were unablo to reach the
city today on account of tho blockade
of trains in all directions.
