parade was held last evening and the plan pro-
posed BY Gen. Palmer, the oommander-in-
chief. to have the parade move down the avenue
in double lines, was considered. The commit
tee, as well as Gen. Palmer, realizes that the
parade viii be . mammoth affair and naturally
they are DESTROYS Of doing everything to havsit
go of with as much dispatch a. possible. II
the plan Of double lines can be carried out II
will no doubt be adopted There are various
questions involved that will have to be con-
sidered, as, for example, the order in which the
departments viii be placed In the line. When
the column is q single one the rule followed ID
to place the departments according to their
seniority. but In the event there are two columns
then department that would naturally follow
another is placed abreast Of it. However, II the
order is fixed by direction Of the commander
in-chief the veterans will have TO settle with
him any questions Of precedence.
