Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1889-03-09

The great crowds gathered at the Capital
to witness the inaugural ceremonies, were
sorely disappointed on account of the bad
weather that prevailed Sunday and MONDAY,
Preparations on O grander scale than ever
before known for such an event were com'
pleted Sunday night
Heavy rains began at nine o'clock, Mon,
day, and it was feared the ceremonies would
not take place at the east portico of the
Capitol After a consultation with Mr..
Morton, Mr.. Harrison announced that
Che programme would be carried out,
rain or shine. Tie great crowd which had
gathered under a forest of umbrellas, went
wild with delight when this announcement
was made. At ten minutes of twelve Presi-
dent Cleveland and President>elect Harrison
arrived at the Capitol in open carriages, each
holding an umbrella.
Then came the impressive oath of office.
The inaugural address was received with
great enthusiasm, the leading points being
loudly cheered.
Directly after the address the Presidential
party returned to the White House.
PARADING IN THE RAIN.
By 10 o'clock, an hour before the military
was to move the windows and seats on the
stands erected along the line of march began
to receive their occupants; and half al hour
later both sides of Pennsylvania avenue-one
of the great and memorable thoroughfares of
the world-from the Executive mansion to
the Capitol, were lined with a surging mass
of humanity, and the ina uguration day was
fairly begun.
Probably 100000 visitors and as many
more of the resident population of Washing
ton were along the line of march waiting pa
tiently to witness the inaugural procession,
perhaps the most stupendous and significant
pageant on the face of the earth; and the
most imposing demonstration of the kind the
country has ever seen.

AT THE CAPITOL.

AT 11:35 the music of the bands and the
cheering of the crowd announced the arrival
of the van of the escort to the Presidential
party. AT that time the Chief of the Capitol
police, attended by six of his assistants, de-
scended the marble steps of the east portico
of the Senate wing to keep the crowd from
intrdding itself within the prescribed limits.
A few minutes later the head of the approach
ing procession made its appearance having
left Pennsylvania avenue and going through
the southern part of the Capitol grounds,
passing the House of Representatives ana
continuing up the east front to the Senate
portico. The procession marched in the
same order as it left the Arlington, and con-
sidering the disagreeable weather, its appear
ance was very creditabe. When the crowd
recognized Gen. Beaver, the Grand Marshal
of the parade, it cheered loudly, which COM
pliment was recognized by the General
by lifting his hat. Then at s minutes
to u, and while the rain was
cheering the loudest, the Presidential party
made its appearance. Upon reaching the
portico the party alighted and President
Cleveland, leaning on the arm OF Senator
Cockreil, and President-elect Harrison, on
the arm of Senator Hoar, assembled the steps
amidst the repeated huzzas of the crowd.
The second carriage, drawn by four
gray norses; next stopped AT the staircase
and Vice President Morton, leaning on the
arm of Senator Cullom, followed the previous
party. President-elect HARRISON and Vice
President-eect Morton acknow lodged the
applause of the multitude by raising their
hats and bowling. After going through the
door President Cleveland went Immediately
TO the Presidents room in rear of the Senate
lobby aud President-elect Harrison and
Vice-P resident-elect Morton to the Vice
Presidents room at the other end OF the lob
by and adjoining the marble room

TO THE CAPITOL.
The Presidential Party Start Out in
the Rain.

At 10 o'clock the carriages provided by
the Inaugural Committee to convey the
party to the Capitol drew up in front at the
Johnston annex entrance, facing Vermont
avenue, and for time re the center of in.
terest to the crowd. A few minutes later
Vice President-elect Morton, clad in a heavy
ulster coming down to his shoe tops and
wearing high hat, emerged from the house,
escorted by ex-Solictor of the Navy Depart
ment, Gen. Williams, and entered the first
carriage. Behind MIN came Mrs. Morton,
on the arm of Lieut.. J. +. Parker, U. S.
Navy, and entered the carriage with
her husband. At 1905 o'clock q large
carriage very similar to that used
by President Cleveland drawn by two beau
tiful bays drove up to the sidewalk for Gen.
and Mrs. Harrison. A few minutes later the
Gen. and Mrs Harrison, Mrs. Mckee, Mrs
Lord, Mrs. Halford and Mrs Rus
sell Harrison and the other members of
the party descended the staircase leading
from their private apartments to the hall be-
low. The Senate COMMITTEES in charge of the
inaugural ceremonies, consisting of Senators
Cullom, Hoar and Cockrell, then advanced
to escort the party to their carriages. When
they were seated there was no delay and all
the carriages Immediately drove off.
FROM wILLrARD's TO THE WHITE HOUSE.
Ten minutes later the party arrived at the
Fourteenth street entrance to Wizards
Hotel and were escorted to the room which
had been handsomely decorated in their
honor. Gen. Harrison's immediate party
was the first to arrive and were soon followed
by Mrs Mortons party and the other MEM
bers of the two households After a few
minutes spent in receiving the congratula-
sions of privileged friends the General and
Mrs. Morton, accompanied by the Senate
Reception Committee, re-entered their car
riages and were driven to the Executive
mansion.
Great crowds of people blocked the
streets in every direction, and as the
distinguished party made their appearance

IN THE SENATE.
Vice-President Morton Takes the
Oath of Office.

Although the Senate wing technically
in some way began to fill up by 9, and at 10
they were at least halt occupied. The Presi-
dents and Vice Presidents seats in
the gallery adjoining the diplomatic
gallery in the north were arranged
as follows: Front seat to the right,
Presidents family second seat to the right.
family Of the President Pro Tempore; first
seat to the lett family of the PresIdent-eIect;
second row, family of the Vice President
elect third row, relatives of the President and
President-elect. The first one to take place
IN that seat was Mrs. John V. Lindlav
whose husband is Gen. Harrison's cousin;
the first arrival in the diplomatic gallery was
that of Assistant Secretary of State G. L.
klyes and wife. They were soon followed by
MRS Gen. j. W. Foster and her cousin, Mrs
DR.. BARN, of this city. In the meantime
the galleries were rapidly being oecu-
pied by the favored holders of
tickets, who proceeded to make them
selves as comfortable as possible.
AT quarter before II the air was filed
with rumors that there was an excitement in
the House over an alleged refusal of Senate
employees to honor tickets issued to members
81 the House and by them given to their FAM
ines and friends, and consequently a resoIu-
ION had been passed directing the Ser geant-
alarms of the House to force passagewav
through to the galleries Rumors were re-
peated that surfeptitious issues of tickets had
Deen made and sold a. prices ranging from
so to $40 apiece, but these evidently had no
good foundation. That tickets have been
sold Is true, but they are not of surreptitious
issue.
At 1850 the House resolution was reported
TO the Senate by the Chief Clerk, and its
reading caused lively sensation. "W hat did
lt meany was asked on every side. and rapidly
the story of the trouble in the House was cir.
eulated- Mr. Edmunds' prompt motion to
aequiesce in the order of the House sunde,
such regulations respecting identity as the
President of the Senate may prescribe was
looked upon as clever move, effectually
spiking the guns of criticism and disappolnt.

The Wealth OfPreSidcuts,

(Maryland Letter in Church Year,
Washington married a rich widow,
and left an estate worth $500 900.
but John Adams was not worth one
sixth of that sum. Jefferson died
so poor that if Congress had not Civ
en- him $23, 900 for his library he
would have been bankrupt. Madison
was economical, and yet left but a
small estate. Monroe died poor +;
John Quincy Adams left $50,000,the
result of prudence. Jackson left a
large landed estate. Van Buren died
worth 100000. 1t is said that dur
ing his entire administration he
Dever drew any portion of his salary,
but on leaving took the whole $100.-
900 in lump. Polk left Sl50,00C.
Gilmore was an economical man
and added to his wealth by his last
marriage, Pierce saved $4,000.
Buchanan left 100000, Lincoln
$4,000, and Johason$50.OOo. Grant,
notwithstanding the losses to which
he wa subjected, had a handsome
s4rport In the fund provided for him
by his friends, and the sales of his
books enrich the family. Hayes is
said to be in handsome financial con-
dition, and the Garfelds enjoy q
liberal pension aud the income from
a large fund contributed by the
putlic. Cleveland has, no doubt,
saved $4,000 from his Presidential
salary.

The EseII of Justice.

From Our Dumb Animals.}
There was King long years ago;
HIS name historian doth not know.
lie lived beueath Italian skies,
\ noble monarch, just and wise.
That he might serve his people well,
In high tower be hung a bell.
lie who was wronged had but to ring
The bell ofJusuce, for the king
Was bound to make the humblest prayer
The subject of his royal care.
At first men rung it every day,
Rotted at last the rope away.
And, growing shorter By degrees,
Swayed lightly to each passing breeze.
For many a month It idle hung,
No Io-a.. needed. No one runs
For justice; men had learned to fear,
And dreaded now the bell to Lear.
At length wandering grapevine clung
Tight to the rope that lille hung,
And firmly held 1t, sweetly grasped,
AS if one hand another claspcd.
A starving horse, turned out to die,
One summer day was passing by,
And browsing where the grape vine hung,
The bell ofjustice loudly rung.
Straightway a royal herald came,
a nd saw the horse, haIfstaryed and lame.
He told the hing who rung the bell,
The monarch answ cred: at is well.
The brute for justice doth appeal
For starving brutes | pity feel.
SO seek his owners hut for me,
And tell him this is our decree;
Long as he lives this horse must fare
On oats and grass Of his. Beware!
''If he again for justice call
My wrath shall on his owner fall"
Would Goa to-day there were bell
That brutes could ling and thereby tell
The story of their cruel wrongs,
And win the justice that belongs
To every creature, great and small;
For GOO their Maker Ioveth all
