Features of the Change in the Ad~ ministration. gi PREPARATIONS FOR THE GREAT PARADE Meeting Between the President and the President-Elect. ON THE REVIEWING STAND — The historic White House never look=d neater or more attractive than it did in the bright sunlight this morning. Al- though everything in complete readi- ness for the moving out of the retiring President and family and the moving in of the household of the new President, there were, however, meny little details connect- ed with the change that required attention during the closing hours of the democratic administration. President Cleveland was still a sufferer from his rheumatic attack, but was fully equal to the demands made upon him «s one of the principal actors in today’s cere- monies. Notwithstanding he was kept up until long after midnight, considering the measures submitted to his action by Con- able to resume his usual routine of business this morning. He arose early and ate his last breakfast in the President McKinley. White House in company with Mrs. Cleve- land and Private Secretary Thurber, who has been their guest since the departure of his family to Detroit two weeks ago. Mr. Cleveland at Work. The retiring President and his secretary then went to their offices and remained constantly at work until it became neces- sary for them to respond by reason of the arrival of the President-elect and the in- augural committee. During the morning retary Lamont, Postmaster General Wil- on, Attorney General Harmon, Secrctary Carlisle an] Secretary Herbert were among the early visitors. They assisted the out- going President in the dispatch of the mass of business requiring his attention. Secre- tary Herbert was accompanied by Miss Herbert and by Chief-@lerk Micou.. Mrs. Lamont and her daughters called iater, and with Miss Herbert spent a short time with Mrs. Cleveland. Mr. Burchard Hayes and Mr. Scott Hayes, sons of ex-President Hayes, called at the White House this morning and were shown through the house, but the President was too busy to see them. Arrival of Mr. McKinley. About 10:20 o'clock there was a fanfa- rade of bugles and a clatter of horsehoofs near the east entrance. It announced the approach of the President-elect and his es- cort, Trcop A of Cleveland. Gen. Wilson, chief of engineers, who seemed to be in charge of affairs at the house, ordered the doors thrown cpen and the presidential party shown direct into the blue parlor. Troop A linea up opposite the main en- trance at a salute, while the visitors alight- ed and walked into the mansion. The short trip from the Ebbitt House to the White Hous was made in Senator Sherman's private carriage. It was drawn by two handsome mouse-colored horses. Several carriages containing twenty detectives and secret service men followed close behind it nto the White House groun In the carriage with the President-elect were seated Senators Sherman and Mit- chell of the Senate committee. and Dete: tive Dougherty of New York. They alight- ed without special ceremcny and were es- Mr. Cleveland. certed into the blue parlor Ly Gen. Wi scn. They came earlier than was expect- ed, and President land was not quite ready to receive them. He was hard at work at his desk upstairs, signing bills passed in the closing hours of the Fifty- fourth Congress. At his request, Secretary Lamont, Secretary Herbert and other mem- hers of his cabinet went dowr to the blue parlor to entertain the visiting party, and ask their indulgence for a few minutes while the President signed the important appropriation bills before him. Meeting of the Two Men. As scon as President Cleveland had done this, he went to the blue parlor, and greeted the President-elect and the Senate committee most cord ly, at the same time announcing his readiness to proceed at once to the business at hand. He wore a heavy overcoat, and was fully prevared for the trip to the Capitol, which was to mark the termination of his present official career. Z It was then five ‘minutes to 11 o'clock, and it was decided to proceed to the Canl- tol without delay. Meanwhile, Gen. Miles and his ald, Capt. Davis, and Admiral Brown and his aid, Lieut. Sharpe, all in full uniform, who formed part of the presi- dential escort, arrived at the White House CASTORIA FOR Infants and Children. THAT THE FAC-SIMIL SIGNATURE OF Chas. H.

Senator Sherman's carriage had given up its position under the port cochere for a much more imposing equipage. It was President Cleveland’s private team. The carriage was an elegant open landau, luxuriously provided with heavy rugs and furs. It was drawn by four handsome horses, two bays and two sorrels. The harness was silver-mounte Wm. Beckett, the President’s own coach. man, sat on the box with the regular foot- man, and handled the ribbons like a veter- an. They wore the usual drab livery, with black silk hats. Start for the Capitol. Abcut 11 o'clock, at a signal from Gen. Wilson, the main docrs were thrown open and the portico partially cleared of the small crowd of detectives, newspaper men and camera fiends who had gathered there. They formed a line from the doorway to the carriage, and received the distinguish- ed party with proper dignity. Its appear- aree at the «ntrance was s‘gnalized by bugle calls and the clatter of horses’ feet, as they were urged into position. The party came out in the following or- der: President Cleveland and Presid McKinley. Serators Sherman and Mitchell. Secretaries Carlisle and Lamont, who were followed by the other members of the retiring cabinet, and Gen. Miles, Admiral Brown and their aids. Impressive Ride. The President was the first to enter the cerriage. He took the rear seat on the right. President-elect McKinley sat on his left, and Senators Sherman and Mitchell cceupied the opposite seats in front. Mr. Cleveland seemed in good spirits, and made some remarks quietly to Senator Sherman which caused them both to smile. Mr. Me- Kinley was more dignified and solemn than on his previous visits to the White House, and scemed to be thoroughly impressed with the respensible duties before him. There vas a wait of several minutes under the porte cochere after the party had taken thelr seats, apparently for the pi-rpose of allowing several photographers to take several pictures. Mr. McKinley faced the cameras, but Mr. Cleveland ig- nored them completely and continued his conversation with Senator Sherman, with lis head turned away from the camer While this was ir progress Mrs. Cl land stood looking at the scene from an uprer window, almost directly overhead. Her sweet face was wreathed in smiles and she presented a very pretty picture. Mr. ‘Thurber stood by her side and he looked supremely happy. Mr. Cleveland apparently did not know of the whereabouts of his wife, but Mr. McKinley saw her just as the carriage started away. He raised his hat gallantly and bowed to Mrs. Cleveland, and she re- turned the courtesy with a smile and a wave of her handkerchief. The other carriages were quickly filled by the cabinet officers and the presidential bodyguard took their places in line without delay. t-elect Forming the Parade. A cannon boomed, the cavalry in front of the White House presented sabers, and the escort to the Capitol was ready to move. All morning the various military orgar- izations had been marching to and fro forming into line. The regulars were astir Tickets. early. Two regiments of infantry had been Guactexed over night in the State, War and Navy building, and were formed in line by 9 o'clock. Crowds had gathered and the formation was watched with eager in- terest. ‘The artillery was massed to the south cf the State, War and Navy, and the red- trimmed uniforms showed up well against the white trimmirgs of the infantry mass- ed on Jackson place. Up 18th street north of the avenue there was nothing to be seen but the yellow plumes and trimmings in the ante-chamber for the | of the cavalry. The mounted artillerymen were all lined up lith street. But above 19th street on the avenue was the attraction of all attractions, the “Jack Tars” and the mascot of the cruiser New | Ycrk, a fat, round geat, known as “Major.” “Major” attracted universal at- tention. He marched ahead of the band, and the spectators all agreed that he did just as well as the men, ‘The stands around the White House be- gan to fill up as the hour for the starting of the escort approached. The formation of the troops was especlally well executed, and there was not the least delay. Bat talions kept moving up as the line on the avenue was formed, and a prettier sigat can hardly be imagined. ‘The street cars were all stopped shortly after 10 o'clock and then the troops had all the room want- ed. The cavalry attracted a great deal of attention as it marched by, and the move- ents executed by bugle calls called forth a round of applause. The crowd around the White House amused Itself at the misfortunes of people who stumbled over the wire rope shutting off the space in front of the reviewing stand. More than one got a fall, and when some high hat went rolling up the pave- ment everybody laughed. All camera tiends were turned out of the reviewing stand, though there was a decided obje this proceeding on the part of the In the Reviewing Stand. It was cold in the reviewing stand and wraps were necessary. Everybody shiv- ered and shivered. Out in the sunshine it more comfortable. he grand reviewing stand in front of the White House did not begin to fill up un- comfortably until a after noon. The Stand itseil is the handsomest ever built for @ similar purpose. But it was cold in it ali the same. The roof and sides shut out i stnshine and kept away the only chai for warmth. Once in a while, as the occupants ‘walted for the parade, a belated club, on its way to its place of formation, came along, and put those waiting in good enough humor to forget the cold northwest wind for a few minutes. All would have left, but it was first come first served as to, seats, and the front rows*he!a on. By 1:30 the stand presented a brilliant ap- pearance. Every seat was ‘filled, and all waited to hear the cheers which would an- nounce the approach of the new President. The stand was built to seat 1,220 people, and the tickets for seats had been dis- tributed among the various Mmaugural and national committee, cabinet officers, Su- preme Court and diplomatic corp Among those occupying seats were Sir Julian Pauncefote and Lady Pauncefote, Mr. and Madame J.

The secend brigade of the first division formed on A street north between Ist and 2G streets cast. The morning march up ‘to ‘the Capitol created a block in the line, and it was some time later than anticipated when the first company of the brigade made {ts appearance. ‘There was some change in the personne! of the siaff of the brigade. Cel. David 8. Gordon, U.S. 4., retired, formerly in com- mand at Fort Myer, was the marshal of the brigade. Clarence Moore was chief of staff, w Capt. Wilcox of the 6th cavalry, was adjutant general. Th aids were Cel Huyck and ¢ Vermont E. Redfern and s B. Smith. taken a part Ss. pt. T was to have in this brigade, but befcre the formation gave notice that it would not show up. The bat- talion, Ist Regiment, Col. George H. Boyd commanding, and Companies A. I, K and M of the Ist Regiment of the Green moun- tain state were scheduled to appear in the line. The reason given for the refusal to participate was on account of the position given fn line. The stalwari republicans of the state felt slighted that their place in the march should be behind Virginia, which was re- garded as a hotbed of democracy, with only @ limited number of adherents to the doctrines of the grand old party. The place iz line jn the parade in the divisica was based on the date of the admission of the states to the Union. The Virginia representatives first soldiers of the second bri vision, to appear. published to be in the rear of New York, but the marshal placed them ahead of the soldiers from the empire state. The Vir- ginians considered this a compliment, and felt highly flattered ° old dominion sol- diers the second brigade consisted of Companies D and F, 1st Regiment, Nasional Guard, Richmond, Capt. Cunningham, commanding. There were 165 men in line, preceded by the Isi Regiment Drum Corps. The companies made a gocd appearance. The Veterans in Blue. The first brigade of the third grand mili- tary ion commenced to form at Ist and B streets southeast about 11 o'clock. thas. Sumner Post, No. !), was the first or- ganization to arrive, and they were quickly followed by others, until at 1 o'clock near- were the gade, first di- iv ly every organization was in position, ready to take up the line of merch when the second division pas: down the avenue. The crowds at this point were not as large as at othe- places along the line. In fact, cast of the Capitol but few people were moving. Gen. O. O. Howard, U. S. A., re- tired, and hi: ff were the first to move into line, the Department of the Potomac, G._A. R., heading the brigade. The second brigade of the third division commenced to form about noon. 0. P. Morton Post, No. 4, was the first organi- zaticn to arrive at the assembling point. In a short while, however, the square be- tween and streets on A street be- gan to fill with veterans and sons of vet- eans. The Junior Marine Fife and Drum Corps, composed of small boys, none over ten years of age, attracted a great deal of attention at this rendezvous. The second brigade swung around 2d street into Penn- sylvania avenue just as the first brigade moved off. All moved with promptness and precision, showing a good knowledge as to the general order for moving the big parade. s The second div of visiting which was composed rd by Gen. onal commander. crowds east of the Capitol are very and all scem to be moving to the t front, so as to view the parade as an entirety Themas J. Cannon, na The mall, The Civie Formation, People began to assemble on New Jersey an] Delaware avenues as early as 7 o'clock this morning, and by the time that the first and second divisions began to form ther were many thousands on the avenues named and the contiguous streets. At times it was almost impossible to move tne electric cars through the dense throng, but the efforts of the police on duty there, aided by some of the officials of the railroad company, proved efficacious in getting the trains through without accident. The number of people carried to the Capi- tol by both the Metropolitan Electric and Capital Traction companies was beyond all precedent for a similar occasion and during a corresponding number of hours, and there were so many who gathered on East Capi- tol street for the purpose of going up town to see the parade from that part of the city that it was utterly impossible for the Met- ropolitan to accommodate them. Despite the great size of the throng, it was a good-natured one, and it obeyed the orders of the officers of the law to move back in order to allow the paraders to pass to the pleces assigned them for forming whenever requested to do so without pro- test or murmur. In Front of the Capitol. The scene at the west front of the Cap- itel was one of bustle and activity. Thou- sands of people of every conceivable de- scription forged and pushed their way to the curbs on the avenue and Ist street, while thousands more, taking advantage of the apparent indifference of the poli-e, formed in solid masses from eight to ten feet deep outside the curbs. Hours pre- vious to this ropes had been stretched on Pennsylvania avenue, but the surging, os- cillating masses of humanity paid no more heed to these supposed barriers than they did to the admonitions given them by The Star regarding the police regulations gov- erning the clearing of the line of march. Those of the people who had maliciously and stubbornly pezsisted in imfractions of the regulations, thereby hoping to gain points of vantage, found their hopes short lived. Shortly after 10 o'clock Lieut. Kelly of the sixth precinct arrived on the scene in the patrol with a squad of officers, and these, augmented by detailed officers and specials galore already on the spot, but up to this time inactive, proved adequately capable of handling the obstreperous mul- titude. In jess than ten minutes, so thorough was the work of the officers, the avenue was cleared, and presented to one looking west to the Treasury Department an unob- structed view of the great expanse of smooth asphalt, lined on either side by a solid wall of expectant and enthusiastic humanity. Shortly after the resonant tones of the first few guns of the national satute an- nouncing the departure of the presidential purty from the White House. and beginning the march to the Capitol, had died away, the van of the parading escort was visible makirg the turn into the avenue from 15th street. This was the immediate signal for reund after round of prolonged cheering, continuing until the Cycle Corps of the District militia bringing up the rear of the escort rounded the curve at the Peace fuonument. As the appearance of the head of the procession was the signal for the aforesaid demonstration, as was the realization of the fact trat the tail of the procession had passed the signal for a general thronging of people into the heretofore well guarded line of march, it would have been utterly useless on the part of the police to stem the tide of this veritable precipitous rush, so entirely was it unmanageable. A herd of cattle numbering thousands on stampede could not be compared with it if an ade- quate description of the reigning pande- monium were the object. Procession Forming in the Crowd. Although the crowd gradually subsided and in the end became more orderly, they still interfered greatly with the formation of the second division, scheduled to form on ist street northwest, and along New Jersey avenue from the point where the two streets Intersected. The police, however, readily realizing and appreciating the exi- gency, lost no time in restoring the previous condition of order. Scarcely had Ist street been cleared when the Arlington Permanent Club of Baltimore, the first organization to appear, lined vp for position. They were followed immediately by the American Sound Money Club of this clty. Then appeared the Mc- Kinley Tariff League of this city. These three organizations were not long waiting for company, and so rapidly did the differ- eut clubs arriye that it was utterly impos- sible to determine anything further than their final marching positions in the pa- rade. __ FINANCIAL. __ FINANCIAL, Government;-Municipal and Street Railway Bonds BOUGHT and SOLD.

Duplicity of the Turks. CANEA, Island of Crete, March 3.—A sensation was caused here this afternoon by the unexpected discovery that the Tur- Kish authorities have had ample funds to meet the arrears of pay due the gendarmes who mutined Tuesday, and that they inten- tionally concealed the fact. Governor Ismael, durirg the day of the trouble, in reply to the representation from the needy policemen, said 1t was impossible to pay them, as he had no money for this purpose, and later he asked the forelen consuls to advance him the money neces- sary from the fund raised as an indemnity for the victims of the disorders of last May. The consuls were about to comply with the governor's request when they ascer- tained, in scme manner not explained, that the other Turkish authorities had ample funds on nand to meet the demands of the gendarmes. This has led to the suspicion that the mutiny of the gendarmes, result- ing in the death of their colonel, Sulimen Bey, and several others, if it was not act- ually instigated by the Turks, could have been prevented by the Turkish officials,who had in their possession the money needed to pay the men, who are Bosnians and Al- banians, and who had not received compen- sation for their services for fifteen months past. have the subject to MORE WARSHIPS FOR SPAIN.
