Am Operation Will Not Be Necessary to Afford Him Relief. ‘The surgical operation that was thought to be necessary a week or so ago to re- move the lump that had formed on the up- per part of Secretary Carlisle's right arm, While ngt supposed to be a serious matter in any way, was still too serious for Mrs. Carlisle to regard it with any favor. In other words she would not consent to have it done, although the Secretary had about decided that as two eminent physicians | said it was necessary he ought not to make any objection. For the last month or #0 the pain in his right arm and hand has jcaused Mr. Carlisle continual annoyance and at times he was unable to write or scarcely use the aching member at all. Of course he thought it was rheumatism and | doctored assiduously for that complaint. It was his wife who discovered that a lump was forming on the muscles above the el- bow and that it was that which was giving all the trouble and not rheumatism. But when the Secretary announced that he was going to have the lump cut out she reason- ed him out of that idea, at least until she would apply a course of ‘old-fashioned home treatment and rubbing. She has been so successful in her diagnosis that the bother- some lump has almost completely disap- peared, and, of course, all the pain and an- snoyance with it. Secretary Carlisle dates the commence- ment of the pain in his arm to his visit to the world’s fair in July last. In company with a party of friends he took turns shoot- ing at a target. His rifle did some violent “kicking” and immediately thereafter he felt twinges of sharp pain through the has not been reliev till the last few days. T_KEEN.

Senator Stewart today Introduced into the Senate an amendment to the Wilson bill Providing that the President of the United States Invite all the American republics to send delegates to a conference to be held in this city within four months after the passage of the act to consider an interna- tional’ American coinage of silver. The | amendment forms a new section to the bill |and stipulates that the conference shall agree upon a coin to be issued simultane- ously by each of the governments that are parties to the conference, to be of no larger size than a dollar of 38.15 grains each. This coin is to circulate in each of | the ‘countries tssue Well as between them in international circulation. ‘This introduces a new feature to the bill which will doubtless give the silver people a new ground for argument. The question of international coinage has hitherzo been discussed only on the broad grounds of Buc ropean policies. This an-American. coins tirely new, as it was voiced and discussed during the Pan-Amertean conference eld in this city during the Harrison admin- istration.

STORY OF A HUNDRED YEARS. The Procession That Marched From “the President's Square,’ ABRILLIANT STREET DISPLAY An Outburst of Patriotism Around the Grand Old Building. EVENTS OF THE Day. pee ee EES ‘Though the day is said to have been a fair and beautiful one a hundred years ago, when according to contemporary accounts “His Excellency, President George Wash- ington, crossed the Potomac into Maryland” (meaning the ten miles square deeded by Maryland and Virginia for the site of the national capital), ‘and, escorted by Virginia and Maryland troops, and Masonic and oth- er civic bodies, moved in procession to Capi- tol Hill, and there laid the corner stone of the national Capitol, the weather could not possibly have been more pleasant on that occasion than the clear skies and buoyant sunshine which smiled on the centennial commemoration of that great event today. A more perfect day could not be desired, It is a triumph of modern meteorology. The twentieth century sun smiles upon a city all in a holiday dress. Gay flags and bunting flaunt proudly from window and wall. The hum of business 1s silenced. The streets are given over to merry makers. Throngs of people fresh from their summer rests swarmed on the brohd walks and cheered the gallant men who marched in parade in honor of the great event, ‘The quaintly worded inscription engraved in 1793 on a silver plate imbedded in the foundation stone described the historic oc- currence with terseness, as follow: “This southeast corner stone of the Capl- tol of the United States of America, in the city of Washington, was laid on the 18th day of September, 179%, in the thirteenth year of American independence, and in the first year of the second term of the Presi- dency of George Washington, whose virtues in the civil administrations of his country have been as beneficial as his military valor and prudence have been useful, and in the year of Masonry 6793, by the President of the United States in concert with the Grand Lodge of Maryland, several lodges under {ts jurisdiction, and Lodge 22 from Alexandria, Thomas Johnson, David Steuart and Daniel Carroll, commissioners; Joseph Clark, right worshipful grand master pro tempore; James Hoban and Stephen Hal- leate, architects, and Collins Williamson, master maso! ‘The day was ushered in by the ringing of centennial chimes. Following as closely as possible the pro- gram of the original ceremonies the pro- cession was chiefly confined to civic bodies, under the marshalship of Gen. Ordway, commanding the District National Guard. It started shortly before 1 o'clock, in four divisions, from in front of the White House, | which faces “President's Square” (as La- | fayette place was called 100 years ago), from which point, according to history, “the pro- cession marched two abreast in the greatest solemn dignity, with music playing, drums beating, and colors flying, and spectators rejoicing.” The modern procession did not march “two and two” or its tail end would not have reached its destination before the shades of night had fallen, but it moved briskly along the broad Pennsylvania avenue to the Capitol, the civic organiza- tions four abreast, and the military in column of companies, with a brave dis- play of civic insignia, much music and the plaudits of a mighty concourse of spec- tators. ‘The organizations in line included in the first division, Odd Fellows, Oldest Inhabit- ants, Knights of Pythias, Elks and “Noble | Red Men." The second division comprised | the Society of the Cincinnati, the G. A. R. | and Mexican Veterans, and the “Sons of | the American Kevolution,” in which or- i ganization are included many of the most | honored names in public life, and which as | an organization made its public debut to- | \day. The third division was military and | |comprised the District Natlonal Guard, | some regulars and visiting militia from | Virginia. The fourth division was com- | posed of veteran firemen and visiting fire |associations, including veterans from | | Brooklyn and New York, and Virginia | and Maryland. At the head of the procession, immedi- ately following Grand Marshal Ordway | and his well-mounted staff, rode the Presi- [dent of the United States and his cabinet officers In an open barouche attended by Mr. Beriah Wilkins, chairman of the re- ception committee, and escorted by a squad- ron of United States cavalry, which made a glittering, clattering show in their showy full dress uniforms, helmets and waving | plumes. In the carriage following the | President came the orator of the day, Hon. Wm. Wirt Henry of Virginia, (grandson of Patrick Henry) attended by Mr. Law- | | committee. The cabinet rode in order of rank, as named in the presidential succession bill, as| follow: Walter Q. Gresham, Secretary of State, John G. Carlisle, Secretary of Treasury. | The Capitol’s Cele-| : | Henry ¥ AT THE E SSSSS AST FRONT OF THE rage rg A CAPITOL. Richard Olney, Attorney General. Wilson 8. Bissell, Postmaster General. Hilary A. Herbert, Secretary sof Navy. Hoke Smith, Secretary of Interior. J. Sterling Morton, Secretary of Agricul- ture, Each cabinet officer was attended by two members of the committee on arrange- ments, After the cabinet officers came Bishop Paret of Maryland, chaplain for the dey, in his episcopal robes. Then came Asso- clate Justices Brown and Field, represent- ing the United States Supreme Court, and after them the joint committee of Congress, the Commissioners of the District, the So- clety of Cincinnati and the general com- mittee. Arrived at the Capitol shortly after 2 o'clock the parade was dismissed and the ceremonies of commemoration were com- menced from the stands erectal on the east front and in the presence of an immense concourse of spectators. Here the program of music and addresses by the chief magistrate of the nation, the Vice President and Speaker of the House, a justice of the United States Supreme Court and“a Commissioner of the District of Columbia and an oration by an eloquent and distinguished representative of George ‘Washington's state was carried out. THE PROCESSION. Am Imposing Civic and Military Dis- play. ‘The scene in the vicinity of the White House this morning was gay and animated. Great interest was shown in the formation of the procession,and throngs of people early assembled on the avenue in front of the mansion to watch the movements of the President and other distinguished guests. ‘The gateways and the high iron fence of the White House grounds afforded special points of vantage to sightseers and as usual attracted the principal share of the crowd. That there were many strangers present was indicated by their excited manner at the approach of everything on wheels that might possibly contain a great statesman, but which, in nine times out of ten, con: tained only a messenger with a note to one of the officials of the house. “Young America,” as usual, was present in great force. He was particularly promi- nent from the fact that he Invariably se- lected a perch because of its helsht and danger. It was a truly good-natured Ameri- can crowd, and though there was plenty of shoving and pushing there was no display of temper. Being crushed and trampled upon is one of the customary incidents of such gatherings, and everyone accepted it as a matter of course, and with the best possible grace, except where an over-sensl- tive corn was concerned. ‘The gathering differed from those nsual at Presidential inauguratioas, mainly im local composition and size. The most vivid contrast in the occasion, however, was in the matter of weather. ‘The severe hardships attending the Prest- dent's inauguration, when the weather was a combination of snow, hail, rain and icy winds, were contrasted most unfavorably with the beautiful, balmy weather of to- day. Souventrs for the President. ‘While the clans were assembling and the air resounded with the noise of marching soldiers and martial music Messrs. Gardner, Hay and Wines drove through the throng on a special visit to the White House. They were usbered at once into the presence of Private Secretary Thurber, and the purpose of their visit was soon explained when they handed him two beautiful white satin badges, the distinguishing feature of which was @ large solid silver souvenir medallion. ‘One was intended for the President and the other for his private secretary. Mr. ‘Thurber delivered the President's medal to him in person. ‘The First Div! ‘The formation of the line was accom- plished promptly and in excellent order. ‘The first to assemle were the civic bodies, composed of the Odd Fellows, Oldest In- habitants, local militia, &¢., who arrived on the scene promptly at noon and took positions near Jackson Place, with the right resting opposite the War Department. A great clatter of horses’ hoofs soon after announced the arrival of the chief marshal and his staff and many aids, who took position on Executive avenue west of the Treasury Department. ‘The remainder of the first division, in- cluding troop A of the District National Guard and a squadron of United States cav- alry, assembled at 12:45 o'clock and made quite an imposing show as they wheeled | into position on the north side of Pennsyl- vania avenue facing the Executive Mansion. To the cavalry was assigned the special honor of escorting the Président of the United States, and their perfect military bearing showed that they appreciated the distinction conferred on them. Their uni- forms and accoutrements were in perfect condition, and the bright steel of their drawn sabers and the burnished gold of their helmets and buttons glistened merrily in the noonday sun. The cavalry escort was composed of ‘Proop A of the District National Guard, in command of Capt. Harrison Barber and Lieuts. Eker and Ferguson, and four troops of United States cavalry from Fort Myer, Virginia, in command of Lieut. Col. Guy V. Henry, seventh cavalry, as follows: Troop A, first cavalry, Capt.’ Gomas; Troop Hy eighth cavalry, Lieut. Steele; Troop F, sev- enth cavalry, Capt. Bell, and Troop K (col- ored), ninth cavalry, Capt. Hughes. ‘The first division was compleately formed in position by 12:45 o'clock. A few minutes after Messrs. Wilkins and Gardner of the committee reported that fact to the Prest- dent. They were accompanied to the White House by Mr. Henry, the orator, who was presented to the President, and remained in conversation with him until the signal to start was given. Col. H. C. Corbin and Capt. George P. Scriven of the regular army, who had been jage idea of Senator Stewart's is not en. Tence Gardner, chairman of the general| detailed as special alds to’ the President, were also promptly on hand. They rode on either side of the President's carriage. This was a plain, low bodied victoria upholstered in black, and drawn by a pair of fine bays. It was ‘almost an exact duplicate of the carriage in which rode Mr. Gardner and Mr. except that the horses of the latter wer light bays. A few minutes before 1 a bugle blast sounded on the avenue as a signal that all was in readiness for the start, and at the same time @ dashing cavalryman rode up to the porch and announced the same fact to the waiting committeemen. There was not a minute's delay on the Part of the President, who entered his car- Tage exactly on time. Mr. Wilkins took a seat behind him and party, and drove out by the west driveway, and touk their place: in the line. He received the regulation sa- lute from the military, but beyond thi there was no special demonstration on his appearance. A number of genzlemen In the throng at the gate raised their hats, and several ladies waved thetr handkerchiefs, but there was no, cheering. ‘The President was dressed in black, and wore a high hat and a long, dark overcoat. He was exposed to the hot rays of the sun for a minute only, however, when he found it necessary to discard his overcoat, disciosing a dark Prince Albert coat. As the procession moved on, the crowd on the sidewalks became more enthustastic,and, frequently cheered the President, He recog- nized the compliment in each instance by smiling and raising his hat. He looked well and hearty, and seemed to iake a great interest in the proceedings. ‘The Order of March. Promptly at 1 o'clock, the preparations having been completed, Gen. Ordway gave the command to march, and the procession moved in the following order: General Ordway, chief marshal. Chief of staff—Gen. Ellis Spear. Special aids—Col. H. C. Corbin, U. 8. A., and Capt.

Mr. Cullom believed that everybody recog- nized the fact that there had been many train robberies recently. If the fact were in doubt it might be proper to give the committee on inter-state commerce gurisv diction over the subject.

Mr. Cullom replied that offense of robbing trains engaged in interstate commerce nate urally belonged to United States. Mr. Harris (Tenn.) thought that the resov lution should go to the committee on ciary. It was no part of the duty of the committee on Interstate commerce to frame laws to punish crime.

Mr. Vest replied that there was his own state, so far from there lack of power to protect its power had been demonstrated on frequent occasions.
