AMBASSADORS WANT CAVALRY
New Method of Receiving Represen.
tatives Of Other Countries.

WASHINGTON. D. c., Feb. IT.
When William II. Taft arrived in
Washington from the Philippines TO
become secretary of war in Mr.. Roose-
Velts cabinet. he was met at the rail-
ROAD station by a troop of regular cav
airy. which escorted him to the war
department.
A few days later, when Elihu Root
left Washington, after turning over the
war portfolio to Mr.. Taft. the same
troop of cavalry accompanied him
from his residence to the railroad
station.
Encouraged by these Incidents the
ambassadors of foreign powers here
want to have the same military honor
done them on special occasions. and
judging from surface indications Of
the feeling on the subject among gov
eminent officials, they will have their
desire gratitied as soon as il has been
expressed formally.
From these things to military escorts
for civilian officials of the govern
ment was a natural and easy step, and
there is no reason to suppose that the
ambassadors won't have their wish
gratitied, that similar honor be shown
them upon their first arrival at the
capital and their final departure there
from. and in going to and from their
embassies and the White House on the
occasion of their formal presentation
to the president.
Ambassadors are persons of conse-
quence, ranking with the head of the
nation. and there is Il strong feeling
tmong the officials of the state depart
neut that they should receive the mill
airy honor due their rank.
