PURE FOOD ORDINANCE
PASSED; BREAD WRAPPING
PROVISION Is EXCLUDED

The friends of the pure food
ordinance last night lacked just
one vote in the council of being
able to retain the provision re-
curing bakers to wrap their prod
uctA In paraffine paper before
sending them out. Hogberg and
Giblett urged a fight against the
wrapping of bread and had the
provision taken from the ordi-
nance.
Hawley, Brand, Doud, Haw-
thorne, Jameson, Wilkeson and
Lynn all stood by the proposition
for clean bread but they were out.
voted and the bakers will keep on
as heretofore.
The pure food ordinance was
passed without this feature, how
ever, and an inspector will be ap.
pointed and food stores will have
to clean up. Dogs will have to
stay out also, and various provis-
ions are made for cleaner food.

Sun Breaks Through.
In the meantime the sun had
broken through the clouds and
the threatening weather which
early in the day promised to make
impossible the carrying out of any
of the outdoor program had so
greatly improved that prepare

of the throng was not diminished.
Beautiful Scene.
They Joined in the clamor with
great vigor and everywhere the
bright colored cloaks and wraps
OF the women mingled with the
flags and banners showed brill
liantly against the great white
back ground of snow. The scene
was one of the most beautiful
ever witnessed in the capital city.
The crowds exceeded the expec-
tation of every one and on ac-
count of the great congestion,
combined with a lack Of Transport
tation facilities on account of the
storm, not less than 1900 visitors
were forced to spend the night in
the great new union railroad sta

great blessing, as it provided shell

ed. Even those who had spent

IMPERIAL PROJECT
BEFORE the COUNCIL


The franchise for the subway
to be operated in connection with
the Imperial building projected
by A. P. Gillies was last night
given it's first reading in the city
council and referred to the fran
chise committee. The commit
tee will meet next Monday to con-
slider the matter.
Councilmen seem to be willing
to grant the franchise If 1t will
help the project to materialize
and Gillies says that he has as
surance from Eastern capitalists
that they will take hold of the
matter and erect the building
when the necessary rights are Sc
cured.

drums, the great procession OF
military and civic power started
from the capitol Immediately after
the new president had been made,
and 1t was estimated that B
O'Clock would come and go before
the last comapny could salute the
reviewing stand at the white
house.
Old Favorites on Hand.
All the old favorites were there,
drawer and snapper, and better
drilled than ever before. The
cadets from West Point and Ann
apolis, marching like magnificent
pieces of clockwork; the 5000
blue jackies of the fleet, fresh
from their cruise around the
world, being among the features.
But by no means least in line,
came the famous Constabulary
band from the far-off Philippines,
which had made the long journey
from the orient to see their old
governor general elevated to the
highest office in the land of their
new allegiance.
There were political clubs, too,
and each one of them had come
to Washington with the intention
of outmarching and outshining
everything in the line.
Those who had the patience
witnessed two parades-the first
when President Roosevelt and
President-elect Taft rode from the
white house to the capitol before
noon, and the second, the big one,
when President Taft rode back to
the white house with the thous-
ands of marchers behind him.

At 11:25 a brief bulletin was
received over the Western Union
wires to the effect that the snow
storm was still raging in Washing

weather great crowds were in the
streets. The dispatch also said
that in some parts of the city
there was eight inches of snow on
the ground and more falling.
President Roosevelt and Presi-
dent-elect Taft arrived at the cap
itol at 10:4 in a closed carriage,
accompanied by detectives and
members of the committee on ar

commissioner power to try the case.
