CROWDS| WAYEASD SEMINARY REMOVAL. Railroad Trains Oarrying the Visitors Home Today. F to the Visitors in the City—Hundreds of Cars Sidetracked. Splendid as were the arrangements for the reception by the management of the various railroads centering In Washington, the plans for starting them on their way home were even better, and at noon today all of the scores of thousands who came only for the purpose of witnessing the in- augural ceremonies, or at least the: great parade, had embarked on the train which was to take them to their destination. It ts belleved by railroad men as the re- sult of first estimates tnat when all the returns are fovied up it will ve seen that more than 150,000 persons, which was the former estimate by various railway otli- clals, were brought to Washington during the past two or chree days, and that the number will reach at ‘east 175,000. ‘ The Baltimore and Ohio carried, il is stated, almost 7,000 passengers into the city during the eighteen hours preceding the starting of th> parade from the Capitol yesterday afternoon, and it is believed by those competent to judze that the Pernsyl- vania, Southera, Chesapeake and Chic and Seaboard unitedly brought at least 60.040 more. The Southern officials had estimated that they would require about twenty coaches to convey excursionl: from near- by points on their line, but instead they were compelled t> use nearly one hundred. By the time that the last of the paraders had started for :ne march up Pennsylvania avenue the railway companies were ready for the outgoing traffic. In each sialion trains were standing on the tracks with en- gines attached, prepared to start on the roper signal. PTRhe first excursion train’ to leave for Baltimore by the Baltimore and Ohio de- parted from the New Jersey avenue and € street station at o'clock, and from that time until long after midnight trains were dispatched as rapidly as they could be loaded from the thousands of persons in waiting. Among the numerous trains were the regulars and several specials for Phila- delphia and New York, ali of which were loaded to their fullest capacity. All this time a similar scene was beirg enacted at the New York avenue station, with trains fcr Pitteburg and points west. General Superintendent Fitzgerald, Assistant Gen- eral Superintendent Gibson, Superintendent of Transportation Harney, General Agent Alvey and many other operating officials were constantly on duty. The company also had a large number of private detec- tives at hand, under the direction of Chief Detective Lloyd, and every man who acted the least suspiciously on the company’s property was invited to leave at once, which the party lost no time in doing. At the Baltimore and Potomac depot the moverrent of outgoing trairs began at about the same time as at the Baltimore and Ohio, and they were dispatched with equal promptness and celerity. At an early hour today most of those who had arrived over the lines which converge here had started their passengers, who do not wish to remain longer toward their homes. ‘The official reports show that not a single passenger was hurt nor was a pocket pick- ed in either of the railway stations during the inavguration season. Some excitement was caused in the Bal- timore and Potomac station about 1 o'clock this morning by a smal! fire in the ladies* waiting room, caused by an unknown party throwing scme rubbish against the steam pipes. The blaze was put out without diffi- culty. _ Big Cut in Mackintosh Prices! $10 mackintoshes—superlative in qualit: finish and fit—down to $5.

The city ambulance service yesterday was not only complete, but also rendered invaluable aid in securing immediate treat- ment for the ill and injured. The twelve ambulances, thoroughly equipped, and ac- companied in every Instance by a physi- cian, were kept in almost constant service during the day and evening. Most of the persons needing medical attention were carried to the Emergency Hospital for treatment, but about all of the hospitals received patients, special preparations for caring for emergency cases having been made by them. ‘The majority of thore treated were class- ed as simple cases, the most serious e being that of John’ Robinson, colored, who claimed to have been as€aulted by three colored men on Canal street. He was vad- ly injured, and his injuries may result fatally. Policeman Digney locked up John W. Mathews, Wm. H. Chisser and James Campbell on suspicion as Robinson’s as- sailants. W. K. Hoey, a decorator, while at work in the ball room, fell and broke both arms. James Brown, colored, receiv- ed a cut head. Harry Hoffman, a school boy, was knocked down by the crowd, suf- fering a cut face and head. Charles Wood, a visitor, was cut In the head in a fracas. Arthur Thomas, colored, waa cut in the head by three companions. Frank Smith suffered a cut head, as did John Bain, col- ored. J. D. Boyd was cut on the hand by a colored man. Foster Hearst, colored, was tapped on the head. Maria Washing- ton was injured about the head and shoul- ders by falling from a wagon. James Bland was cut in the face by a bottle, and among other treated was C. F.

Long ‘Lines of People Waiting to As- cend the Shaft. Despite the inclement weather of the early morning, the Weshington monument was one of the principal centers of attrac- tion, and from an early hour the crowds could be seen going in the direction of this historic structure. At the monument there has been a large throng a!l day. Every approach {is filled with people, anxious to get nearer and, if possible, ascend on the big elevator to the top to get a bird's-eye view of the city, tegether with the novel experjence. Many of them were doomed to disappointment. Owing to work being done taking down the scaffolding that had’ been put in position on the top floor to hold the flag poles on which “Old Glory” was swung to the breeze from the tallest edifice In the country, it was impossible to let the crowd up until after 11 o'clock, At that hour there was a line of people two deep around the monument, awaiting their turn in the elevator. This line extended all around the monument before noun, and the crowds kept comin; At the closest calculation the end man at noon could not possibly reach the top before 8 o'clock, as the elevator can only make so many trips a day. Many people simply walked to the edge of the monument let, while others went to the base for a closer view, contcnt to “take it in" from the outside, instead of waiting for their turn in the elevator. The crowd was made up of all sor:s and conditions of men, white, black, green, grizzled and gray, and, like all the other knots of people gathered about the city, was in perfect gcod humor with itself and the world. No difficulty was had In kcep- ing them in order by the special and reg- vlar police. Several officers in citizens” , clothes watched the base of the monument to see that it was not desectated, but no one was caught either writing his name or attempting to chip off pieces of the stone, as visitors sometimes have at- tempted. % The monument lot showed the effect cf last night’s fireworks, but it will not tcke long to get it in shape again. ~ ‘A Protest Against Taking the Instit . tion to Richmond. The proposed removal of Wayland Theo- Qdgical Seminary from this city to Rich- smond, Va., has caused a spirited discus- sion among Afro-American Baptists and provoked severe criticism of the American Baptist home mission board, by whose decision the change is to be made. The seminary has been in Washington thirty- one years and has done noble work. Its friends, graduates, teachers and supporters resent a plan which will practically abol- ish the institution. Rev. R. S. Laws said today to a Star re- perter: “The American Baptist home mission board at New York decided, against our local and national interests as a race, to take the Wayland Theological Seminary out of Washington and to Richmond. This school, with an unequaled standing of thirty-one years in Washington, with con- ceded high purposes and acknowledged usefulness, can never be proscribed and re- moved under false cover of its inability to equal the Washington High Schools, when there is no comparison between a theo- Jogical semmary and an academic school, without my solemn protest and expression of righteous indignation of a helplessly wronged people. The ill-governed arrang ments by the managers, which overburden- ed the institution with academic adjuncts and too many poorly paid teachers, must never be permitted to make us responsible for their mismanagement. They now tell us through representatives of that famous Wayland conference what they will do for us, what they cannot do for themselves— make us in Richmond what they would not make us in Washington— members on the board. They tell us Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia are to constitute an interstate parish or district for the great university scheme. If so, then let the corporation of Virginia and their financial adjuncts at New York invite us into the new corpo- ration, which must be done in order to make the arrangement permanently legal. “The property will be in Virginia under the jurisdiction of her courts, and the corporate members from these others states need greater and better protection than the board at New York posseses. The money contributed by these state needs the legal and protective suffrage of their chosen representatives, and no mere private caucus of a conference need apply, as this fight is to promote our denomina- tional fitness and not personal popularity. “The university at Richmond has noth- ing in common with the Theological Semi- nary at Washington. The university teaches the composition of men and meas- ures and the Theological Seminary teaches of God and His purpose of grace. That beard at New York represents the Baptists throughout the country, and so does the Wayland Seminary the Afro-American Baptists. That is our board of the de- nomination, and so is the Wayland for the Afro-American portion. Then let its the- ology be profound, comprehensive and far reaching. Give us men who will help us to think in our interest, and not men who think for us against our will and interests. It is not the purpose of the board to create an impression that they only wish to perpeuate places for white men and women among us through misrepresenta- tions that we have not men and women of ability and educational attainments within the race, but their present position seems to bespeak as much for them. They must remember that they are only restor- ing under God to the race what they took under man from us, and this that God might restore to them the joys of His salvation, which are yet to entitle that Trace to the right of eternal life” = Steamer C.

The music was furnished by Victor Herbert's Twenty~ second Regiment Band and the famous Re- publican Glee Club of Columbus, Ohio. “The concert was in honor of the United States army, and notwithstanding the threaten- ing weather a large number of people were ia attendance. ‘he principal figures on the floor were Gen. Nelson A. Miles, commanding the army of the United States, and his staff, who represented that branch cf the gov- ernment. Nearly all of the prominent army officers who are in Washington, however, were in attendance, and the bright uni- fcrms mingling with the decorations around the pillars and fountain made an animated scene. The ball room had been thorough- ly cleaned and chairs had been placed in the east end of the building for the ac- commodat’:n of those who were in at- tendance. This arrangement will prevail at all the concerts of the series.
