Frankrort, Ky., Dec. 10.—William O'Connell Bradley was sworn in as governor of Kentucky at noon to-day, and the first republican administration in the history of the commonwealth was ushered in. Never before was such a crowd seen in Frankfort. There were ten times as many people as ever before came to witness an inaugura- tion. Cincinnati sent 500 republicans, Covington and Newport 1,000 members of half a dozen clubs, the Garfield club of Louisville headed several thousand people, two special trains of ten coaches each, which came from Lex- ington, were packed, and many were unable so get aboard. Col. Bradley, with his wife and daughter, arrived last night on a spe- cial train from his home at Lancaster. All the other state officers-elect were WILLIAM O'CONNELL BRADLEY. on hand this morning. The public buildings, stores and residences were covered with flags and bunting and the city presented a beautiful appearance. At 11 o'clock the inaugural proces- sion was started by the firing of salutes on arsenal hill. The First regiment, under command of Col. John B. Castleman, and the Second regi- ment, under Col. EK. H. Gaither, were in the van. Then came Gov.-elect Bradley and Gov. Brown in a carriage. Other carriages bearing distinguished visitors followed. Then came organ- ized clubs and delegations of citizens on foot. The procession reached the statehouse at noon and found fully 20,- 000 people gathered to witness the ceremonies. Mayor Julian presided and Rev. Dr. W. C. Taylor offered prayer. Then Judge W. H. Holt delivered the ad- dress of parting and welcome and the retiring governor, John Young Brown, delivered his valedictory. The oath of office was administered by Chief Justice Pryor. Standing with his head bared, beneath the American flag, with his right hand uplifted and his left resting on the Bible, Col. Bradley re- peated the words which made him the chief executive of the grand old com- monwealth. In his inaugural address the gover- nor promised to uphold the law and the constitution, protect all people faithfully and labor for a healthy pub- lic sentiment. He declared against mob violence in any form and prom- ised to punish all who offended in that respect. BICYCLE RA The L. A. W. Likely to Confine Racing to Two Classes, Amateurs and Profes- stonals. Puinapetrura, Dee 10.—It is ru- mored that the racing board of the L. A. W. will recommend the abandon- ment of the semi-professional form of bicycle racing as exemplified by the class B riders. The class was created to relieve the amateur ranks from com- petition with the men who were em- ployed by makers of wheels, and who, while carried on the pay rolls as sales- men, clerks, etc., were in reality doing nothing but going around the country racing to advertise the wheels of their employers. The recent exposure of Titus, Cabanne and Murphy was the culmination of the charges which had been made against the semi-profes- sionals. This caused a revulsion of feeling against class B, in which the public had lost confidence, and last weekthe manufacturers decided by a mail vote to abandon racing as a form of advertising. Chairman Gideon, when asked about the matter to-day, stated that nothing had been done about the matter by the racing board, but that body would have some recommendations to make atthe next meeting. It is generally thought in cycling circles that the board will recommend the dropping of class B, and if it does the league is likely to adopt the recommendations, asa majority of the league believe rac- ing should be confined to two classes, amateur and professionals. Murder and Suicide. Aniston, Ala., Dec. 10.—Near Avico, in Lawrence county, buzzards were seen swarming around the cabin home of Henry Williams and his wife, col- ored.

A coroner's jury decided that Williams had killed his wife and then shot himself. Jealousy was as- signed as the cause. 5 To Go Over the Falls in a Barrel San Francisco, Dec. 10.—Miss Millie Viola, formerly an actress but now an aeronaut, says she has traveled from Australia to the United States for the purpose of going over Niagara Falls in a barrel.

WasuInGcton, Dec. 10.—Soon after Call, of Massachusetts, offered a reso- lution calling upon the president to report to the house whether he had reports of speeches that Ambassador Bayard had delivered in England and Scotland were true, and if true, what steps, if any, had been taken to recall or censure Mr. Bayard. Mr. McCreary, of Kentucky, immediately objected to consideration. Mr. Barrett, of Massachusetts, came forward witha question of privilege and sending to the clerk’s desk had read a resolution for the impeachment of Mr. Bayard. Both resolutions complained of Mr. Bayard’s reflections on America's pro- tective system as state socialism and his reference to the United States needing a ‘real man” like Mr. Cleve- land to govern “‘astrong, self-confident and oftentimes violent people.” The Barrett resolution declared these utterances were in manifest disregard of the proprieties and calculated to in- jure the national reputation and di- rected the foreign affairs committee to examine the utterances in that speech and to draft and report articles of im- peachment to the house.
