l-4o brilliant parade OF uniforms in the
street to the official party, which had
just come through the main door. The
official entrance was dramatic. All ex-
cept those who we're participating in
the ceremony were seated When the
justices of the supreme court, with the
exception of Chief Justice Fuller,
emerged from between the Corinthian
pillars and marched down the sloping
carpeted aisle to their station they
were greeter with applause. The JUS
tices wore their robes and skull-caps.
Then came the members of the diplo-
matte corps, in their gorgeous uni
forms, and they evoked thunderous ap-
plause. Led by Count Cassini, the
Russian ambassador and dean of the
corps, and followed by the others in
order Of precedence, they took seats
on the right of the stand. Strolling in
after them came members of the cabi-
net, senators and representatives in
congress. Following on the heels of
the official party came Mrs. Roosevelt
and a party of friends; then, but a
moment later, the new vice president,
Mr.. Fairbanks, and his escort arrived
and were greeted by tremendous bursts
of applause. AS soon as Vice President
Fairbanks seated himself the cheers
ceased, the military presented arms,
every hat in the committees came off
and the great ocean of people set up a
perfect roar of cheers, fairly shouting
itself hoarse. ..-.*
The President Appears.
Quick as a flash every sound was
stilled and PRESIDENT Roosevelt, quiet
and composed of demeanor, came from
between the gigantic pillars, escorted
by Chief Justice Fuller. A random
burst of cheers came from the front of
the crowd, as, with measured tread, in
harmony with the dignified step of the
chief justice, the president advanced
in state down the long aisle of dis
guests. BY this time all
were standing and nothing could be
heard above the roar of thunderous
welcome.
Oath Is Administered.
Chief Justice Fuller stepped to the
front of the pavilion constructed espe-
cially for the use of the president dur
ing the ceremonies, and his clerk came
forward bearing a Bible. A hush, fol-
lowed by absolute silence, fell over
the crowd, which but moment before
was cheering itself hOarse President
Roosevelt raised his right hand and
took the oath which binds him in sup
porting the laws and constitution of
the United States, with great reverence
and amid deep silence. So great was
the awe of the assembled multitude
that not the semblance of a demon
stration followed. Then the president
began his inaugural address, and as

Washington, March 4-Theodore
Roosevelt, president of the United
States for the past three years, was
to-day inaugurated for another term
to the highest Office which it is the
privilege of an American citizen to at
tain. The oath was administered by
Chief Justice Fuller. Hardly had the
president finished his inaugural ad-

fallen upon the spectators when he
raised his hand preparatory to taking
the oath was broken by the deafening
roar of II guns in official salute to
the executive, just entering upon his
second term as president.
Cheered the Troops.
The rendezvousing of the troops,
committees and civic societies enter
tanned the crowd throughout the long
wait incident to the schedule. The
various organizations arriving by diff
ferent routes, passed into tue narrow
def1les which the police kept open. AS
rapidly as the troops arrived they took
the positions assigned them. The mil
itary escort stretched far to the left
and consisted of all branches of the
service-horse, foot and artillery. To
the right were grouped division after
division of state troops, and in differ
ent places of honor the other organiza-
tions took their stand to await the sig
nal to move.
Shortly after noon just following tia
Induction into office of Vice President

DEPRESSION HAD
 ID BE CONTESTED
Large Buying of Individual
 Stocks Kept Market Up
WAS AN INTERESTING WEEK
Modification of Some of the Exoesses In the Price Level, Resulting From Speculative Enthusiasm Ae-
 cepted With Satisfaction.

New York, March 25.-Some tendency to depression had to be contested in today's stock market and this was effected by the large buying of few individual stocks notably Ontario and Western, which was rushed up in the final dealings to 6S7s This did not prevent an irregular tone for the closing. Union Pacific was rather heavy throughout, rising only small fraction over last night at any time, end this had a sentimental influence on the whole market.
 New York Central was another strong feature, and 1t was supposed to be asso- ciated with Ontario and Western. A mum her of industrials made advances. Lon 6ons disposition to take profits was the main factor in the heavy tone of the first hour, and after this influence was over come there was another reaction due to apprehension of an unfavorable bank statement. The $S.0O0O00 loan contrac- tlon disclosed by the statement helped to effect such reduction in deposits as to relieve the reserve requirement to the extent of nearly s6000,000 so that in spite of the loss in cash of $4,61s.soo, which was considerably in excess of expectation, the margin of the surplus was expanded to the extent of $1, ,3251 150.
 The events of the week afford ground for confdnce that even with further exchange market, and in trust company offerings to meet loan requirements It is suggested that the present heavy out ward movement to foreign markets of se- curities represented aceumulations in the early stage of the market advance by foreigners and which have been held since with the proceeds of loans in this mar ket These loans are now being paid off and the securities taken abroad to be held in cheaper foreign markets.

sm,lIen 6 Co.'S Market Letter.

The cotton morket for the short ses- sion today was very narrow and very dull. Liverpool cables showed lower range of prices than expected. The open ing there was about 2 points lower and the close about one point lower, where an unchanged market was due according to our close of yesterday. The opening here was about unchanged May selling at IbS, which proved to be the highest point of the day. There was considerable short selling around this price, and it eased off to 759, closing at 7S0 The movement con- tinues to run very heavy, and weather conditions are very fine for preparations for the new crop. While the receipts may continue to run heavy, the consumption continues to increase. The Lancashire mills are believed to be sold for export up to the limit of their production for many months to come.

Ware & Leiai Market Letter.
 Liverpool failed to furnish any market news this morning beyond quotations spot sales and a quiet tone, these. how ever showed that nothing of special in- terest had transpired. At the close, op- tions had lost one point and spots four, on sales of coco bales.
 An easier tendency developed today, opening prices at a slight decline were the highest during the session. Support resulting from shorts covering in the cur rent month is diminishing. as the interest approaches liquidatlon The spot demand is no longer keen and many believe April business in that department will prove disappointing when compared with the activity experienced during the present month Spinners have taken so far this year 376,0O0 bales more than last year, and 47,OO0 bales more than year before last and reports generally prove that the mill business Is most excellent.
