MANY INAUGURAL VISITORS.
Every Atlantic Coast State Will be
Represented in the Parade.

Washington, March IA noteworthy
Presidents moves on Inauguration day
has been made this year. Heretofore,
it has been the custom for incoming
and outgoing Presidents to take lunch
con at the Capitol, as the guests of the
joint inaugural committee of the Sen
ate and House of Representatives The
parade was kept waiting, the delay
usually being about an hour. In order
to avoid, if possible the unnecessary
delay in the movement of the parade
president Roosevelt decided to return
to the White House next Saturday di-
rectly after the inaugural ceremonies.
He will be accompanied by his escort
of honor 30 picked members Of his
former regiment Of Rough Riders, and
Squadron "A, tie crack cavalry troop
of New York city. Luncheon will be
awaiting the President and his party
at the White House
After the luncheon, which will be dis
missed hastily, the President and his
friends will proceed to the reviewing
stand.
BY this arrangement it is expected to
obviate a longer delay than 10 or Ii
minutes in the movement of the parade.
The inaugural committee today re-
ceived word that Company 3D. Sec
ond South Carolina infantry, will par
ticipate in the inaugural parade. It is
the oldest military organization in the
state and it's coming ensures represen-
tation of every Atlantic coast state in
the military feature of the Inaugural
ton.
All of the incoming trains from
every direction are bringing inaugural
visitors Many of the Rough Riders
| whose organizat ton VIII escort the Pres
iGent to the Capitol are among today's
| arrivals. They will wear Khaki SER
| vice uniforms in the parade.

Raleigh, n. c., March Late this
afternoon an agreement was reached as
to the settlement of the South Dakota
bond matter and the legislative commit
tee prepared the following report, which
it submitted tonight.
The committee to which was referred
the South Dakota judgment and tE e
Schafer bonds to carefully consider he
same and make recommendation re-
port: First, that the governor, with
the approval of The council of s.ate, be
directed to settle the Souh Dakota
judgment in the manner deemed by
them the best to protect the states in
terest.
Second, after careful consideration
of the bonded Indebtedness known as
the Schafer Brothers bonds, being G42,
of 81 GOO each, with interest for TWEEN y
seven years and after consultation with
the attorneys of bondnolderS, the COM
mittee unanimously recommended that
the state pay the bondhOlders $832 per
bond, amounting to $215,S64, which IS
SAT- 216 less than the principal and III
terest, $179, 1876 less than the first prop
osftion suggested by the bondholde-s to
the governor, and $26,136 less than the
ultimatum they offered.
The $215, 1864 recommended by the co-R
mittee and acceted by the bondholders
is based upon, though less than the
settlemen1 Of 1879, allowing rs cents Oh
the dollar, and interest for q years
with interest on the coupons, this being
in strict accordance with the debt set
tIement of 1879 and the Democratic
platform. We believe this settlement
both honest and just and recommended
that the Legislature accept and appcovs

Stanford who later became one of the
builders of the Central Pacific railroad
ana accumulated an immense fortune.
AS the wife of Governor and later Sen
ator Stanford, Mrs. Stanford for many
years took prominent part in social

| Stanford's death devoted herself almost
entirely to the interests of the univer-

of trustees, Mrs. Stanford until the time

Stanford was performed this afternoon.
