INAUGURATION Of TAFT
IN GRASP Of BLIZZARD
Heavy snoWstoPm Visited National Capital To.
day Causing Genera! Discomfort and
Much Disappointment

Washington, D. c., March 4.-Wil-
liam Howard Taft of Ohio today be-
came the twenty-seventh president of
the United States, and Theodore
Roosevelt of New York, who had held
the exalted office for seven and half
years, at the same instant was trans
formed into the nations most distin-
guished private citizen.
Half an hour before Mr. Taft re-
peated the solemn oath of office,
James Schoolcraft Sherman of New
York was sworn in as vice president,
succeeding Charles Warren Fair
banks of Indiana, who had presided
over the senate chamber, in which
the ceremony took place, for one term
of four years.
Taft took the oath of office making
him president in the senate chamber
shortly after Sherman had taken the
oath as vice president. The senate
was crowded to its utmost capacity.
Beside this change very little change
in the original inaugural program
will be made, despite the unfavorable-
ness of the weather. A military es-
cort followed the presidents carriage
from the White House to the capitol.
President Roosevelt shouted goodbye
Palestine daily herald. [volume] (Palestine, Tex.) 1902-1949, 1909-03-04

Taft smiled but said nothing. At the
capitol Taft and Roosevelt went to
the presidents room, where President
Roosevelt signed a number of belated
bills. They were then escorted to
the senate chamber, where the inau-
gural ceremony took place.
Mrs. Roosevelt turned the keys
of the White House over to Mrs. Taft
shortly after II o'clock, and then left
for the station where she was to take
the train with her husband for New
York
After the ceremonies in the senate
cham Der were concluded the parade
from the capitol to the White House
started as planned.

New York, 11:30.-A storm has
swept Washington since early last
night, and today the wires are down
in all directions, and the greatest eff
forts of the telegraph companies have
not succeeded in restoring direct
communication. One authentic bulle-
tin came from the Washington office
of the United Press to the office in
Cincinnati, but the wires went down
before the bulletin was completed.
The latest reports from Washington
say practically all of the outdoor dec
orations were swept down by the
high winds, and the colors of the
bunting were run together and the
whole presents dismal appearance.
The parade will probably be confined
to the troops sent here as special es-
corts to the president. The trip to
and from the White House will be
made in closed carriages. At IL
o'clock the New York wireless ope-
rator got communication from the
Washington operator, saying tfiQ
eight inches of snow had then fallen
and that it was still showing, accom-
panied by raging blizzard.

Washington, D. c., March A.
Immediately following the cere-
moTy, President, Taft proceeded to
the White House to review the colos-
sal military and civic parade, while
ex-t4resident Roosevelt went to the
station where he took the train for
MS told home at Oyster Bay to pre-
pare for his African hunting trip.
TPdays Inauguration, fashioned to
honor a man SO different from the
one that retires to private life, was
built on quieter lines than that of
1908. The wild whoop of the cow
Doyl was missing. So was the buck
ing "cayuse" that he rode up and
down PENNSYLVANIA avenue, to the
huge delight of the small boy and the
CONSERVATION of the small boys pa
ne The Rough Rider was not the
whole show" today. The fighting
companies that journeyed with the
last president to Cuba resigned their
pldyeS OI preference TO the battaliOnS
OF peace. The Black Horse Troop of
Cleveland, which escorted President
Mckinley to and from the capitol,
was chosen by Mr.. Taft for the duty
performed by the First United States
volunteer Cavalry four years ago;
and the pink-coated fox hunters of
Virginia won the cheers today that be-
longed at the last Inauguration to
Seth Bullock and his cow-punchers
from the Bad Lands of the Dakotas. |

Washington, 1O:2O.-A blizzard is

uled for this afternoon will likely be
curtailed and Taft will be inaugurated
in the senate chamber, instead of at
the east front of the capitol, as orig
inally planned

Washington, 11:35.-The sun has
just broken through the clouds, al
though light snow is still falling
The indications are that the storm
has about spent its force. At 11:25
only one Western Union wire is
working between Washington and
New York. Snow is still falling, and
the streets are filled with snow and
slush Many guests who have been
unable to get accommodations on ac-
count of the crowded condition of the
hotels are surging through the
streets and the spectators and deco.
rations are about equally bedraggled

ESTATE OF $4,000, 900.
Is Rapidly Being Eaten Up by Claims
of Creditors.

st. Louis, Sept. 24.-Claims against
the estate of ]. c. Van Blarcom, for
mer president of the National Bank of
Commerce of this city, aggregating
$976.0OO were allowed in the probate
court today. Additional claims of
$45O,000 were filed against the estate,
the inventory of which showed that
Van Blarcom died possessed of $4,-
100000.
The claims allowed today were on
notes held by the bank of which Van
Blarcom was head.
Of the new claims one is for note
for 100000 held by the Commercial
National bank of Chicago, and another
is filed by the estate of Jesse Spauld
ing of Chicago, on note for $3.50, 900.
Both notes were signed by officers of
the Tennessee Construction company
and endorsed by Van Blarcom.
Mr.. Van Blarcom was interested in
the building of the Tennessee Central
railroad in 1902 and 1903, and most
of the heavy claims on his estate re-
suited from that project.

DIR. Cook Is Marked Figure Wher-
ever He Goes.

New York. Sept. 24.-The enthusi-
asm that greeted DR.. Frederick A.
Cook at the Arctic clubs dinenr last
night in the Waldorf-Astoria, is adj
mitted even by his opponents in the
North Pole controversy to have been
great personal tribute. Some disap-
pointment is shown, however, because
the explorers after dinner speech
added no new evidence to the dispute.
Little evidence of this kind, either
is expected from the popular lectures
,1hich the explorer is scheduled to de-
liver
Interest regarding DIR. Cooks per-
sonality is still high. His suite at
the Waldorf Astoria is besieged by
crowds and he is a marked figure
when he takes his daily airing.
The explorer is gradually mapping
out a program. In addition to full
filling the demands of his heavy cor
respondence he is busy in the prepa-
ration of his lectures. The first will
be delivered here Monday night.
Public interest is beginning to center
en- the coming of Commander Peary and
rs its forerlnner. the return of his
Arctic ship, the Roosevelt, which is
here before the end of next
week.
