Secretaries Mac Veagh. Fisher and
Wilson were the only members of the
cabinet to accompany the party to
the capitol.
The official party was cheered by
the great crowds that thronged its
way, which, in contrast to yesterdays S
riotous scenes, was kept clear. At
Mr.. Wilson'S request the secret SER
vice men assigned to guard the car
riages to the capitol were reduced to

The party proceeded slowly until
near the capitol. when the four black
horses. drawing the presidential car
riaGe broke into trot, the escort
spurred its horses into a canter and
the cavalcade galloped up the cap
itol hill to the main entrance.
Taft and Wilson were escorted to
the presidents room, where Mr.,
Taft took up the work of signing
bills. Mr.. Marshall went to the vice
presidents room, accompanied by
President Pro TEN Gallinger. The

seat.
The senate was not ready to ad-

bcak to l1:25.
AS President Taft and President

Washington, ID. c., March A.
Congress has recessed about this
morning until $3.50, following a con-

morning the general deficiency and
Indian appropriation bills were the
only outstanding supply measures.
The senate agreed to the conference
report on the general deficiency bill,
disposing of that measure.
Senator Fall began the filibuster
on the Indian appropriation and the
senate made ready to adjourn for the
Inauguration of the vice president.
Speaker Clark appointed a com
mittee, consisting of Representatives
Underwood, Sparkman and Mccall
to. notify the president that the
house was ready to adjourn. The
house later agreed to the general de
ficiency bill.
