New York May 30.-Almost constant

Fortunately the showers were light and
infrequent during the early stages of the
big parade through Riverside drive. but
scarcely had the maTcherS passed the re-
viewing stand at the soldiers and sail
opened and the rain came down in tor
rents. Governor Hughes and his staff
were on the stand. They WithstOod the
downpOur for few minutes in the hope
that there would be cessation and that
the program of exercises which had been
arranged could be carried out, but the
rain continued and the big gathering
scattered. Governor Hughes was one of
the last to leave. He went TO the Hotel
Regent, where a luncheon had been ar
ranged in his honor. but was obliged TO
leave after a few minutes to catch a
train for Albany.
Later in the day the rain almost pre-
vented the other big event of the day
the gathering at Grants tomb at which
Secretary of War Taft delivered the prin-
cipal address. It was decided finally
however. to carry out the program inside
the tomb. and there the secretary de-
livered his address in the presence of the
small gathering which could find protec-
ton from the rain.
