Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1893-01-16

A number Of the members Of the inaugural
executive committee were at headquarters today
engaged upon the task of preparing the lists of
the various subcommittee in shape
for the printers. This is no small
undertaking, inasmuch as the COM
mittees have increased in size in a most amaz-
ing manner since they we're originally an
nounced about ten days ago. There has been
the greatest demand for appointments Oh these
committees. and if the interest shown by all
classes of Washingtcnisns in the coming insug-
uration can be taken a criterion the cele-
bration on the 4th of March will be uuprece-
dented in extent and proportion. 1t is ex-
pected that the lists will be sent to the printers
not later than tomorrow and that the book con-
tanning all the names viii be issued by the
latter part Of the week.
FAMOUS ORGANIZATIONS COMING.
The crack military organization of New York.
the famous seventh regiment, will have prom
inent place in the inaugural parade. The sixty
seventh, Of which Gen. Martin T. Mcmahon was
formerly colonel, is also expected to partici-
tate.
The ]. J. Dougherty Association and the
Hancock Veteran Association, both of Philade-
phia, have notified the committee of their in
tention to be on hand for the fourth. Both of
these are large organizations and expect TO
make fine appearance in line. The State Fem
cibles of Philadelphia, Capt. X. Z. Schillinger,
have written to engage quarters for 200 men
CIVIC ASSOCIATIONS.
The subcommittee on civic organizations has
its work well in hand now and intends to make
the civic portion of the parade a very attractive
feature. A circular letter is now being pre-
pared, which will be sent in a day or
two to ell organizations that intend
coming on for the Inauguration asking for in
fbnf will ha ~ 20 he oroit
tee, such as the number OF mon they will have
in line. the time Of their expected arrival in
Washington, the date Of their organ
zation, DC. The plan that will
probably be followed out is to place
all such organizations in line by states,
with New York in the front. This will greatly
simplify the work of forming the line well as
doing away with the difficult task of settling the
question Of seniority. Prof. Harry King, the
secretary Of the committee, is making
list Of all the civic organizations
that coming alphabetically and by
states. letter is to be sent to all the mem
bers Of Congress with the request that all clubs
and associations in their districts that contem-
plate being here for the inauguration commu-
nicate at once with the committee.
One Of the busiest men about headquarters
nowadays is Mr.. Joseph E. Johnston the Off
cial stenographer and typewriter of the COM
mittee, who has had charge of formulating
all the committee lists, and the skllful
manner in which all this work has been
done shows clearly why he appointed to
this important post. He is at headquarters
from early morning until late at night, and at
present it looks as though he will have no vaca-
ton until after Inauguration day.
