THE INAUGURATION.
The Entire Pennsylvania National Guard to
Come-Other Items Of Interest.
The entire National Guard Of Pennsylvania,
| consisting Of sixteen regiments Of infantry,
three troops Of cavalry and three batteries, will
| attend Cleveland's Inauguration.
This statement was made in Pittsburg last
night on the authority Of Adjt. Gen. Green
land. He said tina. he had just sent instruc-
tons to Maj. Gen. Snowden at Philadelphia to
send out his orders to the effect that the guard
| will participate in the Inauguration exercises.
The boys will make better showing than

GEN. MMAHoN IN THE CITY.
Gen. McMahon Of New York. grand marshal
Of the inaugural parade, arrived at the Airing
| ton Hotel last night and had a conference with
Col. Berret and Chairman Norris. Gen. Nc
| Mahon approved Of the arrangements SO far
| made for the parade.
| He will probably issue order in a day or
two to commanders Of troops, inssructing them
regarding the formation Of the parade and the
| position each command Is to occupy.
The military committee is still in quest Of
| quarters that can be furnished military organi-
cations free of cost. but it is highly improbable
| that accommodations of this character can be
| obtained except for a few detached companies.
| CIVIC ORGANIZATIONS
| The committee on civic organizations met
last night, with Mr.. VIM. Dickson presiding.
The subcommittee on regatta for the marshal
and aids of the civic division of the parade sub
rod of .toc thp
were given until the next meeting to submit
| fnni report on the subject.
The subcommittee appointed to consider
the advisability Of establishing Il special hos
pital and ambulance service for the 4th Of
March recommended that no action be taken
in the matter. as the hospitals Of the city have
| ample fscicities for relieving all who are likely
| to be hurt or taken sick during the inaugura-
ton. This recommendation was adopted.
Chairman Dickson. marshal Of the civic por-
ton Of the parade, says that il no more organiza
tons report to him those that have already been
heard from will amply sustain the reputation
| this section Of the procession has gained in
| former years. He estimates that with the local
organizations the civic parade is already as
sured of 10000 men in line. They will be
| headed by from 800 to 500 men on horseback.

LOCAL MUSICIANS TO BE PREFERRED.
Prof. Fanciulli. the leader of the Marine
Band. said to u STAR reporter this afternoon
| that in the work Of increasing his organization
| to the number necessary for the Inauguration
he would in every case give preference to local
musicians where it is possible, and that only
a last resort will he call in men from New York
or other cities. 1t was largely local pride as
well as pride in the abilities of the band that
had secured for them the contract and he in
| tended to make it as completely possible a
| local organization. Mr.. Zimmerman the leader
| of the Naval Academy Band. will probably lead
the orchestra that is to furnish the dance music
| for the inaugural bali.
THE LEADERS NEW coRNEr.
The leader of the Marine Band is himself
practical well as theoretical musician and
he intends to play an active part on Inauguration
| day. He said not long ago that If he had
good cornet he would play in the band as it
walks up the avenue. instead Of simply march
ing at the head. This came to the ears OF Rep
| resentative Conn Of Indiana and that gentleman
has Just presented Prof. Fanciulli with an un-
usually handsome silver cornet that is richly
| chased with gold. and this the new leader will
use for the first time in public when he marches
with the inaugural parade.
