Nashville, Tenn, JAN 2S.-Juror
Leigh, who was charged by the state
with being intoxicated and disquali
fled as juror, was today excused by
Judge Hart on the ground that he
had expressed an opinion in the Coop

The judge did not rule on the drunk
enness charge, saying the other
charge was sufficient to excuse Leigh.
Immediately after being released from
the jury Leigh was arrested on a
charge of perjury at the instance of
Attorney McCarn, and the case will
go directly to the grand jury. Today
the charges against Juror Jackson are
being heard. Juror Whitworth is i'll

the conditions. First there was rain
in the evening, turning to sleet then
snow. Trouble was expected and the
telegraph companies ordered all wreck

on the ground early but the wires were
beyond help, going down under the
weight of the snow and sleet This
morning there was but single wire

Washington 1t was long distance

snow, cutting of the capitol complete

Taft Was Impressed.

When Taft took the oath no one
failed to recognize the solemnlty of the
manner AS he bent to kiss the bible
the galleries and chambers echoed
with applause. While Taft took the
oath former President Roosevelt re-
tired from the capitol, slipped out
where the New York county commit

the station where he made a short adj
dress. SO soon as the newly made
president had completed his address
he was driven back to the White
House, his carriage surrounded by
troop A of Cleveland. The closed
carriage prevented the crowd from
seeing anything of President Taft.
On the arrival at the White House
luncheon was served. 1t vas an

view the parade, at least in part, that
feature not being abandoned, although
it was greatly curtailed, physical
marching clubs not caring to negotiate
the heavy going. Troops, marines and
blue jackets, however. took pace in
the line.
