RECOVER FROM EFFECTS OF
 STRAIN OF PARADE

Washington, Sept. 30-Most of the 200 Civil war veterans taken to the hospital yesterday when they became exhausted in the G. A. R. parade, had fully recovered today and were ready for participation in the remainder of the annual reunion program. A ma. jority of the aged men stood the march from the capitol to the White House well but hospitals and emergency re- lief stations esta blished along the route of the parade in Pennsylvania avenue were kept busy caring for those who dropped out exhausted. There were fatalities.
 The veterans had a. busy day before them today, the program being fea- tured with a reception at the White House by President Wilson to the sur< viving officers of the Civil war; bus mess session at Camp Emery, head quarters of the G. A. R.; and the odedi- cation of a jubilee tablet at Manassas, Va.
 Among those expected at the White House reception were Col. David J. Palmer, chief of the G. A. R., and three past commanders-in- chief-Major Leo Rossieur, Capt. Beers and Lieut. Ell Torrance.
 Other interesting events included camp reunions, exhibitions and drills by the signal and medical corps of the United States army on the White House lot; camp fires and dog watches. The day was to be brought to a, close with a meeting of the resolution com mittee and reception -GoTnnander- in-Chief Palmer by the Daughters of Veterans.
