There are ninety mine entries, ranging

entry the most attractive of the day. All
is in readiness, it was stated, by the au-
thorites who rule the parade and it will
start promptly on schedule time
Among the noteworthy entries which
| Will be seen in line are an even dozen
| cars entered by Shannon & Luchs, To-
cal real estate firm, four entered by
| B. Andrews Paper Company. The An
| drews car Is the first to be turned out by
| the new automobile concern, the Motor
| Vehicle Company Of 213 l. street south
a double shift of men to have this car In
| proper shape to participate in the parade
| and the finishing touches were put on 1t
| yesterday evening.
Railway Company's Decision Upheld
The refusal of the Capital Traction
Company to stop Its cars along the line
of parade between the hours of and 6
| holds good, according to q decision by
| Corporation Counsel Thomas. The de-
cision was given to the board of Com
mfssioners this morning, and immediate
ly. after its receipt Commissioner West.
who has charge of the police depart
ment, approved it. The opinion was ac-
ordingly communicated to Chief of Po-
lice Sylvester, and an amendment to the
parade orders was issued to the effect
! that pedestrians and vehicles may cross
the line of parade at intersecting streets.
| 1t had been the hope of those in charge
| of the parade that the railway company
| could be required to stop it's cars UNI
der section 10 of the regulations. which
provides that In cases of emergency. or
whenever the public safety or public in
| terest requires, the Commissioners are
empowered to order a cessation Of street
car and other public vehicle traffic for
reasonable length of time. Mr.. Thorn
! as decision was based on the fact that
| the parade did not come within the in
| tent of the section.
The decision was the result Of an
appeal to the Commissioners a day or
so ago after the railway company re-
fused to grant the request Of the floral
parade committee.
The following resolution was passed
by the Commissioners today, upon
which the amendment to the police or
ders is based:
Moved that the major and superin-
tendent of police be directed to keep
the south side of the avenue clear Of
the Re budns is tbe ca
tol and also to keep the north side of
the avenue clear of vehicles while the
| parade is passing westerly from the
| Capitol to the Treasury building Pc
| destrians to be confined to the side
walks and be allowed to cross the ave-
nue. only at intersecting streets"
