The Inaugural Ceremonies.

Washington, March 4.-Woodrow
Wilson was today inaugurated as
President of the United States, with
Thomas r. Marshall as Vice-Presi-
dent amid scenes Of stirring anima-
tion and with impressive ceremonies,
marked in the main by simplicity,
and yet retaining that degree Of dig
nifty, with some Of the pomp and
spectacular display which inevitably
attaches to the induction OF a new
chief executive of the nation.
The elaborate ceremonies OF the
day followed a fixed program cover
ing practically Ave hours. It began
in the morning with the drive OF the
President, President-elect and Vice
President-elect from the white house
to the capitol, where until noon Mr..
Taft was occupied with the measures
passed in the closing hours OF the
sixty-second Congress.
The Inauguration of vice-Presi-
dent Marshall was fixed to OCCUR
shortly after noon, along with the as
sembling OF the new Senate and the
swearing in Of new Senators. Fol-
lowing this, toward 1 p. m, the chief
ceremony OF the day, the inaugura-
tion OF President Wilson, occurred at
the east front OF the capitol. Then
came the return OF the Presidential
party to the white house and the re-
view OF the inaugural parade, lasting
we'll along into the afternoon.
Wilson's Inaugural Address.
Mr.. Wilson frst spoke OF the Dem
ocratic victory In the House two years
ago and Of the complete change made
by the returns OF the last election.
He admonished his friends that IL
meant more than the mere success of
a party. That 1t is now up to their
party to make good to the people.
Following are some OF the more I'm
partant things to be done a. summar-
lied by Mr.. Wilson:

gree OF particularly the things that
ought TO be altered and here are
some OF the chief items: A tariff

part in the commerce OF the world.

Believe Madero's Resignation .
Forgery.

A dispatch from San Antonia. Tex,
Saturday says:
"The purported resignation of the
late President Madero was to-day de-
clared by r. v. Pasquiera, a member
of the Mexican Chamber Of Deputies,
to be forgery by those who killed
him to give color of legality to the
Huerta administration. Mr.. Pes
quiera is now a refugee in San An
tonic. He asserted that Madero
Vice-President Suarez were killed be-
cause they refused to resign SO they
could not deny their their resigna-
ton. Senor Pesouirra has wired this
statement of his convictions to Wash
ington."
