the depot to Senator Turner's home,
where he will remain until $50
o'clock, when he wilr be surrendered
to the committee in charge of the
day.
There will be no general handshak-
ing. The committee will take every
precaution towards stopping demon
stration of that kind, as the time of
the visit is too limited to allow any
thing of the kind.
On account of the brief stay which
the president is of necessity com
PEELED to make here. it was also
practically decided that the intended
trip to Fort Wright be dispensed
with.
Senator Turner recommends that a
detachment of mounted police accom-
pany the president on his journey
through the city. This is in accord
ance with custom and will be carried
out.
1t was also suggested that for the
better transaction of business the
present committee be divided into
three subcommittee, one on arrange
ments, one on finance and one on
decorations. Messrs. Norman and
Rutter were appointed to act in con-
junction with Senator Turner in ar
ranging the itinerary from Spokane
into Idaho.
The committee was instructed to
meet again tomorrow morning at IL
o'clock at the same place.
