The inaugural Parade.

The chief interest in the inauguration
centers about the parade. This will be
in two general divisions, the military
and the civic, and will be under the
command of chief marshal Gen. Martin
T. McMahon, of New York city. Gen.
-McMahon has appointed, as the chief
marshal of the civic parade, Mr.. VIM.
Dickson, of Washington. The right OF
line in the military parade has been
rendered to the seventh regiment OF
New York, while the same position of
honor in the civic parade will be held
by the Tammany Society OF New
York.
Up to the time of his Inauguration
President-elect Cleveland will occupy
quarters at the Arlington. From there
he will be escorted to the Capitol by
the first division of the military parade.
While they arc making their way up
the avenue the remainder of the parade
will be forming in the streets leading
out from the Capitol. After the eNer-
cises attendant upon the taking of the
oath and the reading of the inaugural
address the line will be formed and the
parade will march down the avenue, up
18th street and around past the White
House. where it will be reviewed by
the new President, and SO on TO Wash
ington circle.
Gen McNIahon will review them from
stand on the avenue near the circle.
The parade will not be quite as long as
some of those in previous years. but 1t
will be none the less interesting on that
account, and may be rather less tire
some to all parties concerned
