THE INAUGURATION.
Lively Scenes at the National Capital
"A Great Rush Of Statesmen.

WASHINGTON, March 3.---The crowds o
four and eight years ago found Washing
ton uncomfortably filed. The massei
now in the city find it filled almost tt
suffocation. No Inauguration in the his
tory of the country has ever attracted th'
members of party in such numbers. No
alone are the hotels filed, but the addi
tional side-tracks of the Baltimore d. Chic
, and Baltimore &c Potomac depots are al
ready filed with the special trains, which
have brought thousands from every sec
tion of the country. The Crescent clut
of New Orleans, almost 400 strong, wal
among those who arrived early to day
and the reception committee had arranged
very pretty welcome for them. The
Young Mems Democratic club Of West
Virginia brought almost 300 men into the
city apd fullowing rapidly in their wake
came the w. u, Wilson Tariff Student,
from the same state. Charleston, 8. G..
sent its Vanderbilt Benevolent associa-
tion, and Richmond comes to-day SOC
strong. Gov. Mckinney and his stat
were given splendid welcome on arrival
here.
The crowds are densest at the Airing
ton and the Ebbitt, where the Cleveland
and Stevenson parties are staying. Mr..
Cleveland has been receiving constant
stream of visitors ever since his arrival.
The program for tomorrow is now
we'll mapped out. Shortly before noon
ice-President-elec Stevenson will reach
the capitol and the oath of Office will be
administered to him by Vice-President
Morton. Then comes the ceremony of
swearing in the new senators. This is
always a tame affair, but some interest
will be taken in it this year by reason of
the many changes and the possibility of
protest against the admission of Jhe
Kansas senator-elect. When this has
been attended to, the upper house will
march to the north end of the capitol
where the Inauguration stand is located
and will witness the ceremonies attending
the formal Inauguration of Mr.. Cleveland.
Immediately after the address has been
delivered the procession will begin to
move from the capitol to the White house
passing to Washington circle at Twenty
third street and thence back on K street
to Mt. Vernon square at Ninth street.
