RETIRING CABINET WAS LEFT OUT.
One of the Oversights Mnde by the
Inauguration Committee.

Washington. March 5-The failure of
President Cleveland's cabinet to attend
the inaugural ceremonies on the east
front of the capitol yesterday, and the alb
sence of Secretary Olney from the whole
proceedings, was due to some slight over
sights OF persons charged with the prep
aration of the Inauguration program
with which neither the old nor the new
administration Is chargeable. There Is no
established precedent for the attendance
of the retiring president at the Induction
of his successor, and when 1t was no.
ticed by the cabinet members that no
place had been set down for them in the
official program and in the line of escort
to the capitol they had no feeling on the
subject and were prepared to accept the
fact gratefully. However It was deemed
necessary to call the attention OF the sem
ate committee to this matter and this was
done, but further lapse occurred some
where and provision was not made for
them. Before the escorts started for the
capitol the omission was discovered by
General Porter and President Mckinley
himself and the cabinet was placed In the
proper position In line as McKinley's per-
sonal guests. all save Secretary Olney,
who could not be reached in time with
news of the arrangements
Ex-Queen LII Had n Pull.
The following letter explains how LII
uokalani obtained access to the senate
during the proceedings:
United States Senate, Committee on
Foreign Relations. Feb. 26-Hon. Richard

Liliuokalani Is DESTROYS of witnessing the
inauguration of the president and vice
president-elect on the 4th of March. and

for two seats-one for herself and one for
her escort.
1T is impossible for the committee on
arrangements to provide these nlacas AZ
cept In the diplomatic gallery; but as ;ick
cts to that gallery are to be sent to Won
for distribution, the committee does net
feel at liberty to assign seats In the gal
lery to any one.
1T is, however, the Judgment of the
committee on arrangements that you pro
vide seats for the ex-queen out of the GO
