Suuadrors of the 4th Cavalry. the 9th Bat
terry and enc battalion of the 22d Infantry.
The Blues under the orders of Gen kobbe,

great energy, and the fighting for a time
was Very lively.

standing the presence of dark clouds over

thing unusual was on the tapis. Long
ropes were stretched along each curb line
of Pennsylvania avenue from the Peace

of policemen was in evidence down town,
and soon after $50 o'clock uniformed bod

terry of field artillery and a squadron of
cavalry from Fort Myer, adjoining Airing

the first troops to appear. The engineers
from the Washington barracks and the sea-
men from the United States vessels an
chored in the local harbor soon followed.
BY 9 o'clock the place of rendezvous at the
Capitol was in state of turmoil.
Countless bands of music We're playing
and the troops and veterans were ap-
Eroachirg from every possible direction.

DIPLOMATIC CORPS PROMOTIONS
MI. Henry White to Be Ambassador to
1taly-Mr. jackson to Be Advanced.

Mr Henry White secretary of the United
States embassy at London, is to be made
ambassador to Rome. The late President
Mckinley intended to thus reward Mr.
White for his long, faithful and valuable
service in his subordinate diplomatic ca
pacity, but found no opportunity during
his incumbency. President Roosevelt has
abilities and fitness, and he has decided to
make him ambassador to Rome. The ap-
pointment, however, is not to be made i'm
medfately. Mr.. Meyer the present United
States ambassador to Italy, has just re-
turned to that post from visit to his home
in Massachusetts, and it is expected that
he will remain IN Rome during the coming
winter
Mr.. John B. Jackson, who has been sec
retary of embassy at Berlin since 1894, is
also slated for important diplomatic ap
polntment, the purpose being to send him to
one of the first desirable ministries that be-
comes vacant. His promotion is to be
based upon the same reason as would in
spire that of Mr.. White, namely, desire
to extend into the diplomatic service the
which has worked we'll in other branches
of the government service. The recent
changes in United States embassies and
ministries was inspired by this same mo-
tive. and it is felt that men of higher quail
ity can be retained in the diplomatic serv-
ice when it becomes known that the best
places are to be filled by the promotion OF
those in the subordinate posts who show
particular fitness for their work.

FRENCH MINERS TO STRIKE.
General Meeting to Be Held Early il
October

In a report to the State Department, un-
der date of September Il. Consul H. S.
Brunot at ST. Etienne says that a congress
of coal miners of all France will be held at
Commentry early In October. And it is
anticipated says Consul Brunot, that a
general strike will Immediately follow, as
there is no likelihood that the demands for
an eight-hour day, increase of wage. etc,
can be granted. In the basin of the Loire,
which Is second in Importance of the coal
districts of France, a referendum has re-
suited in a decision to strike Immediately,
without waiting for the action of the ma
tional federation in October; but the facts
that only 1890 out of over 1900 miners
voted at the referendum and that the ma
jOrty was less than 1000 would seem to
indicate the existence of strong sentiment
In favor of awaiting the opportunity for
united action with the other regions, after
the congress of Commentry instead of en-
terng upon a partial strike in which the
segregated local miners would be fore
doomed to defeat. There seems to be no
diversity of opinion as to a general strike
being ordered within the next six weeks"

A Picturesque Display.

The parade was one of the most pleas
ing, from the standpoint Of picturesqueness,
that has moved along Pennsylvania avenue
the pathway Of the grand review held at
the conclusion of the civil war, and an al
most constant artery for moving columns
in many years. Only the bands and certain
of the staff officers were attired in gorgeous
full dress and gold lace. The regular
troops and the District National GuardSmen
wore the fatigue uniform of blue, while the
United States marines were in service garb
of khaki, with campaign hats, haversacks
and canteens.
The jackies were clad in the regulation
attire for seamcn and looked decidedly
businesslike. The drab khaki of the ma
rines. however contrasted sharply with
the blue of the other troops did the
yellow factngs of the cavalry and the scar
let of the artillery, with the white of the
infantry. The clothing of the seamen,
furthermore, was sufficiently distinctive to
relieve any tendency toward monotony. The
parade, while several miles in length, was
not 50 extended as to prove Waarisome to
the spectators. All In all, the turnout in
honor of the naval veterans was a pro-
nounceQ success.
Formation of the Line
The parade was arranged by the citizens
committee on paraCe and reviews, Of which
Gen. Geo H. Harres is chairman. Maj.
Gen. Charles Haywood. the commandant of
the United States Marine Corps, led the
column in the capacity of grand marshal.

which was made up of score of officers of

all in full dress uniform.
