PHILADELPHIA , May 15. Here , In the
city which first placed on Ills brow the laurel
crown of achievement , the memory of George
Washington , Ilio soldier , the statesmen and
Ihe man , was honored today In monumental
bronze. The cord which released the flags
from the figure of the first ruler of the re
public was drawn by Its latest , executive.
Surrounding him wcro men In whoso veins
runs the blood of those first patriots who
battled shoulder to shoulder with Washington
and with him made possible the scene en
acted today a eeeno conceived and planned
liy tlioso very comrades in arms , executed by
their sons In peace.
The purpose of years , evolved by a handful
of warriors to do honor to their chieftain and
carried through crosses and adversity by their
sons and their sons' sons , was consummated.
Hul the consummation was beyond the bright-
cat dreams of those first few' war-stained
Americans. The union which they formed has
; rown to n mighty organization whose mem
bership stretches from ocean to ocean under
the name of the Society of the Cincinnati ,
while the magnificence of the memorial Itself ,
reared at the gateway of the greatest park
and In the most Intensely American city of the
land , far surpassed their highest hopes.
It was a notable gathering and repre
sentative of the country , Including the presi
dent , the vice president and the cabinet
ofllcerK ; Its defenders in the ofllcers and
privates of the army and navy , and He best
blood. In tlie direct descendants of the mold-
crs and makers of the nation. Major William
Wayne , president of the Cincinnati , who
formally presented the monument to the city ,
traces hla lineage straight to Mad Anthony ,
and William W. Porter , the orator of the
day , Is a grandson of David HUtonhouse
Porter , twice governor of Pennsylvania , and
a great-grandson of General Andrew Porter ,
who was on Washington's staff In the revolu
tion. Thus no historic Interest was wanting
to stimulate enthusiasm.
HOUSED HY SUNIUSE GUNS.
At sunrlso this morning the boom of can
nons from the batteries of the United Statcu
troops camped In Falruiount park aroused
the city to one of the greatest days In Its
history. U was not long after that steady
streams of people began to flow along every
byway leading to the Green street entrance
to the park , where the monument stands. In
splto of the heavy downpour of last night ,
the day broke under clexr skies. The deco
rations throughout the city were lavish , but
of course the greater labor and attention had
betm devoted to the hotels which sheltered
the Washington dignitaries , lloth the. Hotel
Walton , where the president and several
members of the cabinet were housed , and the
Ijafayctlc , which entertained vice presi
dential party , wcro literally' swathed In flags
and bunting- . The archways of the vast city
hall , a few blocks away , were liberally
clothed In trl-color and Chestnut street was
a fluttering mas/a of red , white and blue.
Stands were crccti.il all along the line of
march.
The ceremonies proper began at noon , when
the. parade moved from Hr/oad and Spruce
streets , under command of Major General
Cowden , and at the park It passed In review
before the president.
The actual unveiling ceremony was Im
pressively simple. Hishon Whlttaker opened
with prayer and Major Wayne , followed with
an appropriate address. Then came the un
veiling by President McKlnley and the resultant -
sultant clamor , augmented by the national
salute of twenty-one guns by the artillery
and by the foreign and American war vessels
In the Delaware. This concluded. President
McKlnley spoke briefly. The oration WEB
then delivered by Mr. Porter. The formal
presentation of the memorial by the society
( o the city was niado by Major William
Wayuo to Mayor Warwick with short ad
dresses by both and then the mayor trans
ferred It to the Fairmount Park commission ,
which body exercises jurisdiction over the
great pleasure ground.
President McKlnley and his distinguished
companions reviewed the military parade and
the crowd , while not looking at the troopa ,
reviewed the president a.id his party.
The night was devoted to various phase ;
of celebration , apart from the dinner. The
wheelmen's parade , with nearly 20,000 In line ,
was the principal feature. Illumination !
from the monument , the city hall , the Union
league and other points added to the brll.
llancy of the Jubilee and closed the day In. f
veritable blaze of glery.
General Porter presented the monument.
NOTMNG NEW TO UK SAID.
Mr. Porter began with a recital of thi
formation of the Society ( if the Cinclnnat
by the officers of the American army , am
its motive's and purpose ? , together with UK
origin of the plan which culminated Ir
today's event.
Continuing ho said :
Whnt shall be said of this Wnshlngtoi
to whose memory wo do honor ? Certain ! ;
no new thing. All has Deen well nix
often said , A statesman , omniscient , pure
whoso mind conceived and whose deed !
created a free , popular government.
A soldier selfsaerlllolnpfearless , whost
sufferings and courage saved the cause o
freedom from defeat.
A man , silent , potent , whoso spirit broodei
over the new iKirn nation and Influence !
Its development and character.
It may he safely asserted that no mim
has appeared before or since that luii
grouped the principles and possibilities o
the republic with more cle-rness than tlia
of the llrst president.
The monument unveiled today IB , however
reared not to Washington , the statesman
but rather to Washington , the foldlcr , by at
organization formed by hss companion li
arms.
After touching upon trie- striking point !
of Washington's several campalgno thi
speaker drew comparisons between Washing
ton and thu heroes of olden times , Alexamle :
ami Caesar , and those of feudal times , am
continuing , paid a brief : tribute 'to Gran
as the antltlcsls of Washington In military
genius.
Returning to the theme of Washington a :

A critical study of Washington's career
only enhances our estimation of his vast
and varied abilities. AH commnnder-ln-
chlef of the colonial armies from the be-
glnnlnt , ' of the war to the proclamation of
the convention which
peace : as president of
framed the constitution of thu United
States , mid us the lirst president of the
ITiilteii Stale * under that constitution ,
Washington has a distinction differing from
that of. all other Illustrious Americans.
No other name bears or can bear such a
relation to the government. Not only by
bis military gonlus-hls patience. his
sagacity , his courage and his skill was _ our
national Independence won , lint he ho.ped
in largest measure to duift the chart by
which the nation was guided , and he was
the first chosen of the .people to put Jn
motion the new government.
WONDERFUL. FOHESKJIIT.
of martial display
His was not the boldness
play or the charm of captivating oratory ,
but his calm ami steady JtnK-ment won
men'K support and commanded their con-
hdcncc by appealing to their best and
noblest aspirations. And withal Washing
ton was ever so modest that at no t me in
his career did his personality seem In the
least Intrusive. Ills was above the tempta
tion of power. Hf spurned the suggested
crown. He would have no honor which the
people did not bestow. An Interesting fact-
iiid one which I love to recall-Is that the
only time Washington formally addressed
the constitutional convention di'rlng nil Its
sessions over which he presided In this
city he appealed for a larger icnrewnta-
tlon of the people In the national house of
representatives , and his appeal was In
stantly heeded. Thus ho was ever keen y
watchful of the rights of the people In
\\hosc hands was the destiny of our govern
ment then and now. .Masterful as were
his military campaigns , his civil ad
ministration commands iual admiration.
His foresight was marvelous ; his conception
of the philosophy of government , his In
sistence upon the necessity of education ,
rnoralilv. and an enlightened citizenship to
the progress mid permanence of the re
public cannot be contemplated even at this
period without lllllntr us with astonishment
nt the breadth of hla comprehension and
the sweep of his vision.
TOOK NO NAHUOW VIEW.
His was no narrow view of government.
The Immediate present was not his sole
concern , but our future good his constant
theme of study. He blazed the path of lib
erty. Ho laid the foundation upon which
we have grown from weak nnil scattered
colonial governments to a milted republic
wl.oso domains and power an well as whose
liberty and freedom have become the ad
miration of the world. Distance and time
have not detracted from the fame and force
of his achievements or diminished the
grandeur of his life and work. Great deeds
do not stop In their growth and those of
Washington will expand In In'lnencc In all
the centuries to follow.
The liuiuent Witrfhliifiton lias made to civ
ilization Is rich beyond computation. The
obligations under which he 1ms placed man
kind arc sacred and commanding. The re-
sp-Jlis'blllty ho has left for the American people -
plo to preserve and perfect that which he
accomplished is exacting nnd solemn. Iot
us rejolco In every new evnience that the
people realize \yhat they enjoy and cherish
with affection the Illustrious hi-roes of revo
lutionary story whose valor and sacrifices
made us n nation. They live In us and their
memory will help us keep tno covenant en
tered Into for the maintenance of the freest
government of earth. The nation and the
iiamo of Washington are Inseparable , One
Is linked Inillssolubly with the other , lloth
are glorious , both triumphant. Washington
lives and will live because wnat he did was
for the exaltation of man , the enthrone
ment of conscience and the establishment
of n government which recognizes nil the
governed. And BO , too , will the nation live
victorious over all obstacles , adhering to the
Immortal principles which Washington
taught and Lincoln unstained.
HISTORY OF THE MONUMENT.
The magnificent memorial dedicated today
with such pomp and pageantry has a history
almast as full of Interest and "moving acci
dents" as that of the hero whcao provveas
It commemorated.
On the Fourth of July , 1811 , more than
eighty-live yo.irs ago. the Society of the Cin
cinnati , which still had among Its member *
olllcers who htd fought In the revolution ,
met in independence liall and adopted a reso
lution to erect a monument to the memory of
George Washington. The boclcty had not
then acquired Us peculiar dlhtlnctlon as an
organization of patriots of opulence an/1 leis
ure , dedicated to the worship of their ances
try. They wcro not unlike the legions which
have grown out of th civil war , and Wash
ington was as near to them a Grant Is to
the veterans' organizations of the present
day. At this meeting a committee was ap
pointed , made up of Major I' . Lenox , Judge
H. Peters. Major W. Jackson , "Mr. " Hlddle.
a descendant of "Nick" Diddle , the dought )
commodore of the revolution , and Horace
ninney. They appealed for funds to the jieo-
lilo of Pennsylvania , and $2,000 came In.
From this small beginning thu fund Imn
grown to (280,000 , although the original pur-
pot ? wan to ralio only 1160,000.

cltemcnt and the consequent hard times ,
caused a suspension of the movement. It re
mained In abeyance for a number of years.
Finally , 'n 1S32 , the ono hundredth anniver
sary of Washington's birth produced another
revival of patriotic memories , and a committee
teeof citizens started a. now fund for the
. monument. In honor of this centennial there
was a great procerslpn , and in the division
given up to trades was n car drawn by seven
horses ami carrying the cornerstone which
had been prepared for the monument. Again
the next year there was a great parade- , and
the stone was laid in the center of Washing
ton square , within sight of the venerated Independence
dependencehall. .
Meantime the original fund In the custody
of the Cincinnati had remained undisturbed ,
and the citizens' fund was also substantially
intact. Overtures were repeatedly made for
a consolidation of the two funds , but the
sturdy conservatism of the Cinelnnatlans de
feated them until about fifteen years ago ,
when the matter was carried to the- courts
with successful issue. During the interval of
quiescence both funds had waxed fatter the
citizens' to $50,000 and the Cincinnati to
? 130,000.
The monument , which Is the design of Prof.
Rudolph Siemcring , a celebrated sculptor of
Berlin , Is about forty feet high. From an
oblong platform , reached on four sides by
thirteen steps , symbolical of the thirteen
original states , rises a pedestal hearing an
equestrian statue In bronze of General Wash
ington. The Father of Ills Country is repre
sented In the colonial uniform of the Ameri
can army , a large military cloak being thrown
around hl commanding figure. At the four
corners of the platform are fountains , served
by allegorical figures of American Indians ,
representing four rivers , the Delaware , Hud
son , Potomac and Mississippi. On the sldeo ,
each of these fountains is guarded by typical
American animals , eight in all. At the front
and hack of the pedestal are two allegorical
groups , the former representing America
ceated , holding In ono hand a cornucopia ; In
the other a trident , and having at her feet
chains jucH cast off. She Is In the act of
receiving from her victorious sons the
trophies of their conqurat. Helow this group
la an eagle supporting the arms of the
United States.
PATRIOTIC IN CONCEPTION.
The group In the back roproscntH America
arousing her sons to u sense of their slavery.
Uclow are the arms of Pennsylvania. On the
sides of the pedestal arc two has reliefs , one
representing the march of the American
army , the other a wcfiternbound emigrant
train. On one sldo tlio pedestal bears the
Inscription : "Sic Semper Tyrannla , " and
"Per Aspera ad Astra ; " on the other : "West-
ward the Star of Kmplro Takes Its Way. "
Surrounding the upper portion of tlio pedes
tal Is the legend : "Krcctcd by the State
Society of the Cincinnati "
The Society of the Cincinnati forms nn
Interesting hlntorln link connecting onr
times with the revolution. Later w.irs have
produced other Kocletloa which are composed
of actual participants In the events which
they commemorate ; wherous the Cincinnati ,

field , now Includes only their descendants.
It was founded on May 13 , 1783 , at a meeting
of the. oltlcers of the Continental army , at
the Verplar.ck residence on the east tihore of
the HndBoii river , about a mlle above Fish-
kill , N. V. Hach regiment and staff corr.s

Stcnbcn presided. The constitution , or rather
Institution , as the phraeo still continues , re-
conn's the happy close of the war for Independence
pendence"after a bloody conflict of eight
years' , " and' then recites as tlio piirpcno of
the society : "To perpetuate , as well the re-
mpmbranco of this vast event im the neutral
friendships uhlch have been formed undei
( hit pressure of common danger and in many
instam'f-H ecn.enttd by the blood of the par

"Tho olllcera of the American army , hav

character nf that Illustrious Roman , Lucius
