Regarded as Discourteous.
| Considerable adverse comment was caused

| the fact that a minstrel brass band was al
| lowed to follow on the heels of the distin-
guished military visitors up Pennsylvania
| avenue. 1t was generally regarded as a
discourtesy that should have been pre-
| vented by the police.
At 18th street and Pennsylvania avenue
the line of parade crossed the car tracks.
| The electric cars. regardless Of courtesy,
were driven through the ranks Of the
marchers. This was also the subject of un-
| favorable criticism.
