TEDDY WANTS TO BE OF"
Rittsburg POst.)

tBItISDurg POSLD
The president and his advisers are
distressed over Governor Roosevelt
desire to ride with the president to the
capitol on Inauguration day. The pres
ident and Chairman Hanna have de-
cided that the governor viii not ride
with the president, but will go in
separate carriage, accompanied by
several members of the local commit
tee having the Inauguration ceremonies
in charge. The practice is Tor the
president-elect to he accompanied by
the retiring president, but as President
Mckinley is his own successor, there is
no retiring president as distinct from
the pTeSident-eIeCt.
This situation was seized upon by
several of Governor ROOseVelts friends
as sufficient to warrant the suggestion
that the -preSident-elect should
ride with the president. When ques-
toned by the amazed officials, to whom
the matter was preached, these friends,
while declining to admit that they were
acting on the governors specific re
quest. said they had no doubt he would
much prefer riding in the same carri-
age with the president TO riding in
another following behind The matter
was debated with much animation, not
only by Chairman Hanna and his pO-
litical friends and members of the
committee on arrangement, but by the
president himself.
Word was sent to Governor RoOse-
Welt today that there was no precedent
for the governor proposition; that
there was no recollection or record of
a vice president-e elect riding to the
capitol with a pTesident-elect, and that
the practice of the past would be ad-
hered to. The governors friends took
issue with this statement, said that the
present situation had never had any
parallel and that while as a rule, the
president was accompanied only
by the retiring president. this time the
president would be alone unless Cover
nor Roosevelt rode With him.
The Mckinley managers, however,
have fortified themselves by careful re-
search and replied that a similar ques-
ton had arisen when Grant was about
to be inaugurated the second time, and
that ne was accompanied by three
members of the local committee of ar
rangements and not by the vice-pTesi-
| dent-elect.
