and again for several minutes.

lYhent the persons who were to assist at
the ceremonies were seated on the plat
form, Presidentelect Cleveland began his
inaugural address. Hewas clad IN a full
suit ofblack, Prince Albert coat, high old.
fashioned standingcoltar blacktie. In
speaking he held his left hand closed be.
hind him and emphasized bis speech by
gestures with his right hand. He spoke
without manuscript, but occasionally con-
suited o small piece Of paper bearing
notes OF the heads OF his discourse. His
voice was clear and resonant, and be
slowly enunciated swords and ecca-
Isionally turned about ct pauses, as II to
note the effect OF his remarks. The I'D.
dress will be found on page2.
When he first began TO speak the crowd
applauded whenever he paused to take
breath, but after awhile tcontented itself
with cheering him as he made his princi.
pal points, sHis'reierenceto theprohibi.
ton of foreign contract labor called out
loud and long continued applause, but his
allusion to Civil Service reform met with
faint response. The address was very.
brief, and at precisely two minutes after l
O'Clock It concluded with an invocation Of
the blessing Of Providence; and turning to
the Chief Justice and bowing to him, said
~ am nov preparedto take the oath
prescribed bylawp s5s

As the Chief Justice arose TO admin
ister the oath the vast assenblage cheered
again: and again. The President.
elect stood facing the Chief Justice.
On the right Chief Clerk MoKenney,
Of The Supreme Court, stood Just to the
side OF Cleveland and held the Bible upon
which the oath was administered, thel
President. t.elect also holding II with his
right hand. The Bible used was small
morocco covered, ,gilt-edged volume, pretty
well worn. It Is the Bible which Cleye-
land mother gave him when he left home
as d young man, and at his special request
the Committee oi Arrangements had II in
readiness for the ceremony. The crowd
preserved perfect quiet as the impressive

and as President Cleveland laid down the
Billie after reyerentfy kissing 1t and shook
hands wfththe Chief Justice who was the
first to congratulate him, they cheered
loudly and long. EXP President Arthur was
the second man to congratulate the Presi.
dent and then followed Chief Clerk Nc
Kinney and Senator Sherman. President
Cleveland was then introduced to the re.
naming Judges OF the Supreme Court, to-
lieutenant General Sheridan and General
.Hahcock, and the other persons on the
plat atform then pressed forward and many,
OF them shook his hand. AS he re-entered

TWO STORMS AT ONCE.

While the dark mutterings Of the storm
were laundering around the western horizon
yesterday evening". an EAGLE itinizcr was
passing the front Of the Office of Arthur &
Batson on Douglas avenue, when his ear
caught different and more decided mutter-
ing Of another storm issuing from within the
door
It appears that Mr.. Arthur had IA misun-
derstanding with Mr.. casters about the
honse which they both occupy, and the lat
ter thinking that some advantage had been
taken of him by Arthur in the releasing of
the premises, a quarrel resulted. And if
both sides to that quarrel &C uld have made
up their minds to the same effect at once,
we infer from what was said BY one of the
belligerants that there would have been a
black eve, a scratched face or so, and a
leyee before his honor to see what the
luxury Of free fight was worth in the rather
peaceful city of Wichita.
