INAUGURATION of TWenty-Seventh
President Is Witnessed by
Great Crowds.
MARSHALL SWORN IN FIRST
Simple Ceremony In Senate Chamber
Followed by More Impressive
Affair on East Portico OF
the Capitol.
Bv GEORGE CLINTON.

Washington, March An the pres
ence of a vast throng of his fellow citi-
zens, Woodrow Wilson today stood in
front of the east portico of the capitol
and took the oath of president Of the
United States. Thomas R. Marshall
already had been sworn in as vice
president, and with the completion OF
the ceremony the ship of state was
manned by the Democratic party,
which had been ashore for sixteen
years.
AS the new chief executive of the
nation stood with barred head, Ed
ward Douglass White, chief justice of
the Supreme court, held before him
the Bible always used in the cere-
mony. Mr.. Wilson placed his hands
upon the book and in a voice strong,
though somewhat affected by emotion,
swore to support the Constitution and
the laws of the country and to perform
the duties of his high Office to the best
Of his ability.
Thomas Riley Marshall swore feal-
ty to the Constitution and to the
people in the senate chamber, where
for four years it will be his duty to
preside over the deliberations Of the
members of the upper house Of con-
gress.
Severely Simple Ceremonies.
Both of the ceremonies proper were
conducted in a severely simple but
most impressive manner. The sur
roundings of the scene of the presi-
dents induction into Office, however,
were not so simple, for it was an out
of-door event and the great gathering
of military, naval and uniformed civil
organizations gave much more than a
touch of splendor to the scene.
In the senate chamber, where the
the oath was taken by the man now
vice-president of the United States,
there were gathered about 1000
people, all that the upper house will
contain without the risk of danger
because Of the rush and press of the
multitudes. 1t is probable that no.
any time are there gathered an equal
number of men and women whose
names are SO widely known. The
gathering in the senate chamber and
later on the east portico of the capt.
toll was composed largely of those
prominent for their services in Amer
lea, and in part of foreigners who
have secured places for their names
in the current history of the worlds
doings.
The arrangements of the ceremonies
for the Inauguration of Woodrow Will
son and Thomas Riley Marshall we're
made by the joint committee on ar
rangements of congress. The senate

occupied. On the floor of the cham
Der were many former members OF
the senate who, because OF the fact
that they once held membership in
that body, were given the privileges
of the floor. After the hall was filed
and all the minor officials of govern
ment and those privileged to witness
the ceremonies were seated, William
H. Taft and Woodrow Wilson, proceed
ed by the sergeant-at-arms and the
committee of arrangements, entered
the senate chamber. They were fol-
lowed Immediately by Vice-President-
elect Thomas R. Marshall, leaning
upon the arm of the president pro
tempore Of the senate who, after the
seating of the incoming vice-president.
took his place as presiding officer OF
the senate and of the days proceed
ings.
The president and the president
elect sat in the first row Of seats dl-
rectly in front and almost under the
desk Of the presiding officer. In the
same row, but to their left, were the
vice-president4e1ect and two former
vice-presidents of the United States,
Levi P. Morton of New York and Ad-
lai A. Stevenson of Illinois.
When the distinguished company en-
tered the chamber the senate was
still under it's old organization. The
oath of Office was Immediately admin
istered to Vice President-elect Mar
shall, who thereupon became Vice
President Marshall. The prayer of the
day was given by the chaplain of the
senate, Rev. Ulysses G. B. Pierce, pas

The procession was in divisions,
with General Wood as the grand
marshal of the whole affair and hav-
ing a place at it's head. The display
in the words invariably used on like
occasions, was impressive and Drill

Wotherspoon Leads Regulars.
The regulars of the country's two
armed service naturally had the right
of way. Maj. Gen. w. w. Wother-
spoon, United States army, was In
command of the first division, IN
which marched the soldiers and sailors
and marines from the posts and the
navy yards within days ride OF
Washington. The West Point cadets
and the midshipmen from the naval
academy at Annapolis, competent De-
yond other corps in manual and in
evolution, the future generals and ad-
mirals of the army, had place in the
first division.
All branches of the army service
were represented in the body of regu-
lars-engineers, artillery, cavalry, In
fantry and signal corps. The sailors
and marines from half dozen battle
ships rolled along smartly in the wake
of their landsmen brethren.
The National Guard division follow
ed the division of regulars. 1t was
commanded by Brig. Gen. Albert l..
Mills, United States army, who wore
the medal of honor given him for con-
spicuous personal gallantry at the bat
tie of San Juan hill. General Mills is
the chief of the militia division of the
United States war department.
The entire National Guard Of New
Jersey was in line, and Pennsylvania,
Massachusetts, Maryland, Virginia,
Georgia, Maine and North Carolina
were represented by bodies of civilian
soldiers. Cadets from many of the
private and state military schools OF
the country had a place in the militia
division.
The third division of the parade was
composed of Grand Army of the Re-
public veterans, members of the Union
Veteran league and Of the Spanish
war organizations. Gen. James e.
Stuart of Chicago, veteran of both
the Civil and the Spanish wars, was
in command.
Thousands Of Civilians.
Robert NJ Harper, chief marshal of
the civic forces, commanded the fourth
division. Under his charge were po-
litical organizations from all parts of
the country, among them being Tam
many, represented by 1000 of it's
braves, and Democratic clubs from
Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia, Balti-
more and other cities.
They put the American Indians into
the civilian division. The fact that
they were in war paint and feathers
helped out in picturesqueness and did
nothing to disturb the peace. Mem

the Inaugural Procession.
By GEORGE CLINTON.

Washington, March 4.-The "Jeffer-
sonian simplicity" which Woodrow
Wilson requested should be observed
in every detail of his Inauguration as
president did not apply to the inaugu-
raj parade, for it was as elaborate as
such an affair usually is. The people
wanted it so, and they showed their
appreciation of the spectacle by turn
ing out by the hundred thousand and
cheering wildly as the marchers pass
ed with bands playing loudly and flags
waving bravely.
The newly inaugurated president re-
viewed the procession and smiled his
approval as he returned the salutes of
the commanding officers, for all the
glittering show had been arranged in
his honor Pennsylvania avenue, from
the capitol to the White House, was
full of color, music and movement.
People Enjoy the Sight.
The inhibition of the inaugural ball
and of the planned public reception at
the capitol had no effect as bar to
the attendance at this ceremony of
changing presidents. Masses were here
to see, and other masses were here to
march. There was greater demon
stration while the procession was pass
ing than there was four years ago.
Victory had come to party which
had known nothing like victory for a
good many years. The joy of posses
sion found expression in steady and
abundantly noisy acclaim.
President Taft and President-elect
Wilson were escorted down the ave-
nue. by the National Guard troop of
cavalry of Essex county, New Jersey.
The carriage in which rode Vice
President-elect Marshall and Presi-
dent pro tempore Bacon of the United
States senate was surrounded by the
members of the Black Horse troop of

Formation OF Parade.
The military and the civil parade, a
huge affair which stretched it's
length for miles along the Washington
streets, formed on the avenues radiat-
ing from the capitol. After President
elect Wilson had become President
Wilson and ce-President-elect Mar
shall had become Vice-President
Marshall, they went straightway from
the capitol to the White House and
thence shortly to the reviewing stand
in the park at the mansions front
The parade, with Maj. Gen. Leonard
Wood, United States army, as it's
grand marshal, started from the CAPT
toll grounds to move along the avenue
to the White House, where it was to
pass in review. The trumpeter sound
ed forward march" at the instant the
signal was flashed from the White
house that in fifteen minutes the new
ly elected president and commander
in-chief of the armies and navies of
the United States would be ready to
review ''his troops"
It was thought that the parade might
lack some of the picturesque features
which particularly appealed to the
people on former occasions. There
we're Indians and rough riders here
not only when Roosevelt was inaugu-
rated, but when he went out of Office
and was succeeded by William H.
Taft. The parade, however, in honor
Of Mr.. Wilson seemed to be pictur-
esque enough in its features to appeal
to the mu]titudes. They certainly
made noise enough over it.

section of this committee was ruled
by a majority of Republicans, but
there is Democratic testimony to the
fact that the Republican senators
were willing to Guido their Democratic
brethren in the work of making Sr-
derby and impressive the inaugural
ceremonies in honor of two chieftains
of the opposition.
Ride to the Capitol.
President Taft and President-elect
Wilson rode together from the White
House to the capitol, accompanied by
two members of the congressional
committee of arrangements. The vice
president-elect also rode, from the
White House to the capitol and in the
carriage with him were the senate's
president pro tempore, Senator Bacon
of Georgia, and three members of the
congressional committee of arrange
ments.
The MISREPRESENTATION took the
oath just before noon in accordance
with custom and prior to it's taking
by the president-elect Every arrange
ment for the senate chamber pro-
ceedings had been made so that they
moved forward easily and with a GER
tain ponderous grace.

America rode in this division. Their
pink coats and their high hats ap-
parently were not thought to jar
"Jeffersonian simplicity" from it's
seat. Pink coats were worn on the
hunting field in Jefferson's day and in
JeffersOn's state.
There were 1000 Princeton students
in the civic section of the parade.
Many of them wore orange and black
sweaters and they were somewhat
noisy though perfectly proper. Stu
dents from seventeen other colleges
and universities were among the
marchers.
Cheering Is Continuous.
All along Pennsylvania avenue, from
the capitol to point four block be-
yond the White House, the spectators
were massed in lines ten deep. The
cheering was constant and Woodrow
Wilson cannot complain that the cere-
monies attending his induction into
office were not accompanied by ap-
parent1y heartfelt acclaim of the peo-
pie over whom<he is to rule for at
least four years.
Every window in every building on
Pennsylvania avenue! which is not oc-
cupied for office purposes was rented
weeks ago for good round sum of
money. Every room overlooking the
marching parade was taken by as
many spectators as cound find a want
age point from which to peer through
the window panes The roofs of the
buildings were covered with persons
willing to stand for hours in a March
day to see the wonders of the inaugu.
raj parade, and many of them partic-
ulariy glad of an opportunity to go
nome and to say that after many years
waiting they had seen Democratic
president inaugurated.
