There was a report current yesterday
that the Richmond companies OF the Sew

uniforms on the occasion Oh fresldeht
McKinley's inauguratio ton.
Captain George =. Shackeiiord sala IN

the military organizations would be re-
uuired to wear blue uniforms.
Tt is not believed Ihere that this rumor5
has any good foundation Troops from
New York. Maryland and other States
have always been permitted to parade IN
any uniforms they chose to wear.
Lieutenant f. NJ Hardy has received
a letter from the committee in charge OF

troops would be assigned to position
between the soldiers of New Jersey and
Maryland. Nothing was SAID ABOUT me

WeIcome-In Gray Uniforms.
A special received by The Times last
night from Washington says
General Francis V. Greene, chief mar
shall Of the inaugural parade, tonight
Indignantly denied the report that no
troops would be allowed to take their
place in the line unless they we're uni
formed in the regulation blue of the
United States army.
General Greene said no such order mad
been issued nor had anything OF the sort
ever been contemplated by him or any
one connected with the arrangements for
the Inauguration. It is not known here
where or how the report started, but it
has no foundation, in fact. 1t was point
ed out tonight that one of the New Aork
militia organizations wears the gray. and
gray is recognized officially in connection
with the unifcrming OF the cadets of the
West Point Academy, the Government
military school.
General Greene said the Richmond
troops in gray will be as welcome as
those that wear blue, and he regretted
that any question regarding it should
have been raised.
