A Suggestion.

10 the Editor OF The EVENING STAR:
1t is generally known that on Inauguration
day an interreSsurn occurs owing to the fact that
the retiring President ls at the Capitol signing
bills. and that the incoming President does not
reach the Capitol to take the oath Of office until
about o'clock p. m. an hour after the incuu-
Dents time has expired. Now who is the re-
sponslble party TO maintain order and supply
the missing h'ak' Clearly, the marshal Of the
Distriet OF Columbia He. with about one dozen
deputy marshals up to the time of Mr. Liucoia's
Inauguration. took charge of the incoming Pres
1dent. riding beside his carriage and accompany
ing him through the crowd to the platform.
where the ceremonies took place Let us re-
turn. as far as possible. to former customs The
marshal of the District is in duty bound to assert
MS right to this privilege and If he search the
records he will md the names of those who
served "a deputies on similar occasions 1t
would be curious 70 learn If any of those who
served as deputies on the occasion Of Mr. Bu-
chanans inauguration are alive. II so, should
they not be given the post OF honor at the ap-
preaching ceremony? Query.

MEETING OF THE G. AND O. CANAL BOARD YRSTKHDAY.
At meeting OF the board OF directors Of the
Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Co In Baltimore yes
terday the tolls for the coming season were xed at
2e cents a ton, with cents wharfage, making the
charges for the transportation OF coal BY the canal
from Cumberland to Georgetown 26 cents, reduc-
ton OF 10 cents ton from last season. when the
Charges were IS cents. Under the new schedule OF
char GeS which are the lowest ever known on the
canal the cost OF the transportation OF coal to tide
water will be about as follows: Expenses from the
mines to Cumberland, 80 cents q ton boating, 20
cents tolls and wharfage, % cents-total $l.&
This Is little lower than the cost by railroad,
back has been allowed. The canal charges were
placed at the reduced figures TO meet the railroad
competition.
The directors decided to do away with oil the

CYCLONES AND TORNAD OES.
How These Violent Storms are Defined
at she Signal Office.

The signal service has issued circular defn-
ing cyclones and tornadoes. as follows:
CYCLONE.
A name suggested by Piddington in East
India, about forty years ago, to apply to the
violent storms OF the Bay of Bengal and other
tropical regions; synonymous with typhoon of
the China seas and hurricane Of the West Indies
A broad storm, from 100 to 500 miles In diane
which heavy rain falls; with spiral inward blow
Ing winds Of destructive violence near the center
but with calm space (ten or fifteen miles in
diameter) at the center itself, known as the 'eye
OF the storm" The barometer always records
low atmospheric pressure nearthe storm center.
Cyclones have progressive motion. not directly
visible, but apparent in the passing changes of
the weather that they bring. The broad storms,
often Of but moderate violence. accompanied by
a heavy wide-spreadng sheet OF cloud with rain
or snow, bring warm weather In their front half
and cold In their rear, which frequently covers
a considerable number Of our states at once, ex-
hibit nearly all the physical peculiarties of cy.
clones. although this name Is not yet generally
applied 70 them by all meteorologists. In our
country such cyclonic storms never leave mar
row path Of destructive action along the track
Of their central passage, but they are rather
beneficial than otherwise, as they bring the
greater share OF our rains. As a whole, these
cyclonic storms travel across our country from
west to east, at rate OF TWENTY-FIVE to thirty
miles an hour. the same storm often endures
for week and its path may be followed for
several Thousand miles.
rORNADoEs
are violent local storms. which appear. from
records made by the numerous volunteer tornado
reporters in cooperation with the signal service,
to be generated only In certain parts Of the broad
relatively harmless cyclonic storm. Tornadoes
are marked by their well-known whirling fun
mel cloud. and by their narrow path Of destruc-
ton. within which few structures can
Withstand their violence. They are. therefore,
very local. They advance at rate Of twenty
five to thirty miles an hour. corresponding to
the progression Of the great cyclonic storm with
In which they are generated; and q single tor
nado seldom endures more than an
hour or two. number Of tornadoes
frequently occur on the same day in ad-
jacent states, they are commonly associated
with thunder-storms and with gales Of squalls
Of violent straight line winds The name tor
nado has been used as here indicated since the
early part of this century In this country and In
Europe Its replacement by cyclone Is very
recent and should be avoided in order to pre-
vent confusion.
The signal service reports never apply the
words cyclone to our western tornadoes.
