Neh hcHahon. Tue chief marshal OF the in
suguratIcn parade. said that he had not made
any definite plans for the parade beyond the
fact that u would conform. in a general wav to
those Of preceding inaugurations "Ihave con-
sidered the matter Of a double-line formation
for he parade. but it hardly seems to me
feasible scheme II would be first rate for
Psnnsylvania avenue. but 1 am afraid there
would be a tremendous block in wheeling into
10th street. On the whole I think the single
line will be better. One thing / can say and
that Is that the line will not pass through the
plaza at the east end Of the Capitol until after
the ceremonies. IL will pass around. You see.

the ceremony Of swearing in the President
elect and don't intend 20 allow any interior
ence with that with the rights OF the people

There will D. none Of the Inconvenience and
drawbacks that interfcred with the Columbian
parade IN New York. Yol have here the i'm

beers and IMPORTANCE
