inauguration was the concert in which
the German American citizens of New
York and vicinity testified their loyalty
to their adopted country. This was
given at s o'clock last evening in Madi-
son square with an audience probably
numbering 10000 people. Theodore
Thomas conducted the chorus of forty
six singing societies. The instrumental
pieces were given by great orchestra
under the direction of Reinbold Schmelz.
While the concert was in progress and
following it there were pyrotechnic ex-
hibitions in eleven different localities.

rences of 100 years ago, fireworks on the
Battery having been one of the promin-
ent features OF the Inauguration Of Pres
ident Washington.

and waves of applause ran out along the
entire line. A conservative estimate of
the crowd on the streets, the windows,
the roofs and other points of vantage,
places the number of sightseers at
i,250.000.
The big crush of the day was in Madi-
son square, and especially at and about
the Worth monument. People enough
70 populate a city were there. Men and
women fringed the sidewalks, filed the
windows and packed the stands. There
was roar of applause when President
harrison was driven up to the revlew-
ing stand at the Worth monument. The
police arrangements there were perfect,
aud there was no trouble in getting the
presidential party through the lines.
Elaborate Decorations.
Scarcely a building was to be seen
Without decoration more or less elabor-
are Tiny flags decorated the lapels of
me coats of men and boys. Models
struck in commemoration of the great
event were as plentiful as roses in June.
siany patriotic women wore silk sashes
oI red, white and blue around their
waists, while with others the American
nag took the place of the usual corsage
eeouQuet. Every window and roof were
nlied with faces, and the waving Of
sIeamers, flags and handkerchiefs
greeted the paraders as they passed.

There are over one hundred floats.

sOIical groupings, Representations of the

New YORK, May 1.-The greatest
civic parade that this republic has ever
known is under way.
There are about 80, 900 men in line, or
will he when the vast body of men
massed in the streets contiguous to Cen
trail park and Fifth avenue have formed
in columns and followed the mighty
army of civilians that is now filing past
the reviewing stands at Madison and
Union squares.
The men are marching very close and
rapidly and fill the street from curb to
curb, but even so it seems impossible
that all should reach Waverly place be-
fore or 10 o'clock. The parade must
be curtailed somewhere and the order to
dsperse will probably be welcomed joy
fully by the patriotic but weary citizens
who have been waiting in Fifty-ninth
street for hours.
Million Spectators.
This morning there was no diminution
of the crowds that have filled the streets
since Monday. Fifth avenue was lined
with humanity. That was as far as one
could see from one of the roofs at Madi-
son square The window sills and side
walks held men, women and children.
The slightest incident provoked a cheer,

horseshoe and between the two are oval
tables seating twenty guests each.
Eight hundred guests were present.
The tables occupy the entire auditorium
and extend to the rear of the stage.
The Presidents Table.
The presidents table was nearly in the
centre of the room, plainly visible from
every part of the floor, as well as the
boxes and galleries. A large oval plate
glass mirror was placed in the centre of
the table. The mirror was framed in
smilax and trailing arbutus, from which

county, recently married young wife,

and fell to the ground, rifle ball having
pierced her lett side. A physician and
detective were summoned. An investi-
cation resulted in the arrest OF the two
sons, who We're given a hearing and COM
mitted on the charge of numbering their
father and attempting the life OF their
stepmother. Mrs. Shoulcs condition Is
extremely critical.
