THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, MARCH 5, 1897 representatives of the people in Cengress when it involves neglect of a public duly places the responsibility of such neelect upon {he Executive himself. The condition of the pubiic treasury, as has been indicated, demands the immediate consideration of Congress. It alone has the power to provide revenues for the country. Not to convene under such circumstances 1 can view in no other sense than the neglect ofa plain duty. Idonot sympatiizs with the sentiment that Conzress in session is dangerous to our general business interest. Its members are the agents of the peo- ple, and their presence at the seat of Government in the execution of the sovereign will should not operate as an injury but a ben- efit. There could be no better time to put the Government upon a sound financial and economic basis than now. The people have only recently voted that this should be done, and nothing is more binding uvon the agents of their will than the obligation of immediate action. It has always seemed to me that the postponement of the meeting of Congress until more than a year after it has been chosen deprives Congress too often of the inspiration of the popular will and tue country of the corresponding benefits. 1t is evident, therefore, to postpone action in the presence of so great a necessity would be unwise on the part of the Executive, because unjust to the interests of the people. Our action will now be freer from partisan views than if the tariff question was postponed until the regular session of Coneress. We are nearly two years from a Congres- sional election and politics cannot nearly so distract us as if the election was immediately Psnding. We can .lpproach}ht problem calmly and patriotically without fearing its effects upon an early election. Our fellow-citizens who may d_lsagrua with us upon the character of this legislation prefer to have the question settled now, even against the preconcelved views—and perhaps set- tled so reasonably, I trust and believe it will, as to insure grat permanence—than to have further uncertainty menacing the vast and varied interests of the United States. Again, whatever action Congress may take will be given a fair opportunity for trial before the people are called to pass judgment, and this I consider a great essential to the rightful settlement of the question. In view of these considera March, 1897. ions I shall deem it my duty as President to convene Congress in extra session on Monday, the 15th day of 1n conclusion I congratulate the country uoon the fraternal spirit of the people and on the manifestations of good will every- where so apparent. The recent elections not only most fortuaate!y demonstrated the obliteration of sectional or geographical lines, but to some extent also the prejudices which for years have detracted our councils and marred our true greatness as a Nation. ‘The triumph of the peonle whose verdict is carried into effect to-day is not the triumph of one section, nor wholly of one party, but of all the sections and all the people. North and South no longer divide on the old lines, but upon principles and policies, and in this fact surely every lover of the country ¢an find cause for true felicitation. Let us rejoice in and cultivate this spirit. It is ennobling and will be both a gain and blessing to our beloved country. It will be my constant aim to do noth- ing and permit nothing to be done that will arrest or disturb this growing sentiment of unity and co-operation, this revival of estcem and affiliation which now animates so many thou-ands in both the old antagonistic sections, and which I‘ehall cheer- fully do everything possible promote and increase. 5 Let me again repeat the words of the oath administered by the Chief Justice, which, in their respective spheres, so far as practicable, I would have all my country This is the obligation I have reveren responsibilities. men observe: tially taken befora the Lord most high. “I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will, to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the constitution of the United States.”” To keep it will be my single purpose, my constant prayer, and I shall confidently rely upon the forbearance and assistance of all the people in the discharge of my solemn ek HUGURATED * PRESIDET Continued from Second Page. not hope to acquit myse!f to your satisfaction or with any degree of personal credit. 1t shall be my highest aim to justify the confidence the people have reposed in me by | discharging my duties in such & manner as 0 | lighten your labors, secure your appreciation | of my honest effort to administer your rules | with an eye single to the public good and -pro- | mote the pleasant and efficient transaction of | the public business. I trust that our official and personsl relations may be alike agree- able; that the friendships ‘we may form here | may be genulne and lasting, and that the | work of the Senaté may redound to the peace | and honor of the country and the prosperity | and happiness of all the people. | Toen President Cleveland’s proclama- | tion convening the Senate in session for the 4th of March was read, and the Vice- | President called upon the newly elec(ed) Senators to come forward and be sworn. Morrill (R.) of Vermont had the dis- | tinction conferred upon him, on account | of his age and long service, of being sworn first and alone at the clerk’s desk—the oath being administered by Vice-President | Hobart. All the newly elected Senators who were present, as well as the old ones, were then sworn in in batches of fourata time and subscribed to the oath of office. Each Sgnator, as he came forward to take the oath, was escorted by his col- league, so that Sherman performed, per- hape, his last cfficial act in the Senate chamber by escoriing Foraker, Brice's successor. The only exception to the rule was in | the case of Kyle of South Dakota, who was | escorted, not by his colleague, Pettigrew, but by the Populist Senator from Nebraska, Allen. The ceremony came to a close at . 3, when the order of exit and the pro- cession to the inaugural platform was put into execution. It was 1:15 o'cleck when the floor of the Senate chamber was once more deserted, | and then the spectators in the galleries | were permitted to join in the procession. | By 11 o'clock the diplomatic gallery be- gan to fill up. The wife of the Chinese | Minister, Mme. Yang Yu, occupied the front seat to the extreme left, and behind her sat Mr. Sze, one of the attaches. Botn wore their native costumes, the lady being | attired in bright silk, with large red | flowers in her toque. She appeared to take a lively interest in the scene, occasionally leaning over the balustrade anc peering down upon the assemblage. Many of the other occupants of the diplomatic galleries were ladies and families of the Ministers and attaches. Ex-Queen Lilinokalani came into the diplomatic gallery at 11:30 o’clock, fol- lowed by her secretary, Mr. Palmer, but they took seats three rows back of Mme. Yang Yu. At11:45 the assistant doorkeeper an- nounced “The Embassadors from foreign countries.” The Vice-President, SBenators and spec- | tators arose and remained standing while the Embassadors walked down !the main aisle, made profound bows to the Vice- President and took the seats reserved for them, adjoining those reserved for the President and Vice-President-elect. That was immediately followed by the announcement, **The Ministers of foretgn countries,”” and the same ceremony was observed as the Ministers entered and took seats behind the chairs reserved for the Chief Justice and Associate Justices of the United States. The Embassadors and Ministers were resplendent in their uni- forms, sashes and decorations. The next to enter were the Chief Justice and Associate Justices of the Supreme Court of the United States in their black silk robes. They occupied chairs within the arena in front and to the right of the Vice-President’s desk. They were at- tended by the clerk of the court, who held a splendidly bound and gilt copy of the Bible, in quarto size, on which the oath of office was to be administered to the new President. Exactly on the stroke of 12 o’clock the Speaker and members of the House of Representatives were announced and the same ceremony was observed toward that body. The whole assemblage arose as Speaker Reed and the members in his train were taking their seats, in the right hand sec- tion of the hall. Speaker Reed took his seat beside and to the left of the Vice- President. By this time the floor and galleries of the Senate chamber were completely filled, and hundreds who could not get seats crowded up against the walls and blocked the doorways. At12:15 Hoar reporied that the com- mittee to wait on the President had per- formed that duty and had been requested by the President to extend his congratu- lations 1o Congress and to say that he had no further communication to make. As <oon as that report was made the Vice-Presider:t-elec: was announced, and all stood up while Mr. Hobart walked down the aisle to the Vice-President’s desk and took a chair there reservea for him to the right of the Vice-President.” At | constitution of the United States by eleven | were announced, and the vast assemblage stood while Mr. Cleveland and Mr. Mec- Kinley walked slowly down the main aisle aud took the seats reserved for them. Finally all were seated in the following order: President Cleveland and President-elect McKinley, in the two chairs in front of the Vice-President, facing the left. To their right, the four Embassadors from Great Britain, France, Germany and Italy—Sir Julian Pauncefote, M. Pater- | notre, Baron von Thielman and Baron Fava. The semi-circular row of chairs facing the Vice-President was occupied, the lef hand section by the members of the Pre: dent Cleveland Cabinet and his private secretary; General Milas and Rear-Ad- | miral Browr, in full uniform; the right- hand section by the Chief Justice and Justices of the Supreme Court of the United States; the Marshal of the Dis- trict, Mr. Wilson, and General Porter, marshal of the parade, with his aids. On the right side of the hall beyond the Supreme Court Judges were the Ministers from foreign countries with their secre- taries and attaches, all in full uniform of their diplomatic or military c(\\mlries,‘ and most of themn wesring crosses, medals and cther decorations. The Chinese and Korean embassies were particularly conspicuous by their Oriental attire — the Korean Minister wearing a | green silk costume with a high conical | black hat, while seated next to him was| Mustapha Bey, the Turkish Minister, in | rich uniform and with a red fez on his| head. — PREVIOUS INAUGURALS. It Is a Century Since the Day of | Inducting Presidents/Into Office Was Fixed Upon. Inauguration day was fixed upon a| century ago. Adfter the ratification of the | States the Congress of the old Confedera- tion by a vote on Efehtember 13, 1778, “Resolved, that the first Wednesday in January next be the day for appointing electors in the several States, which before the said day shall have ratified the said | constitution; that the first Wednesday in February next be the day for the electors | to assemble in their respective States and vote for a President; and that the first Wednesday in March next be the time, and the present seat of Congress the place, for commencing proceedings under the said constitution.” The “first Wednesday'’ being the 4:h of March it thus became the day upon which the quadrennial day of the Presidency commences, The date seldom falls npon a Sunday, only three times during a cen- tury. The second inaugural of Monroe, the inaugural of Zachary Taylor and that of Hayes fell upon Sunday. Hayes took the oath of office on the preceding day at the White House. The date, March 4, will fall upon Sun- day in 1917, 1945, 1973, 2001, 2029, 2057, 2085, 2125 und 2 Tne choice of the date was unfortunate to the enjoyment of the im- posing ceremony by the immense crowds which witness it, as the weather at Washiagton is then usually very in- clement. Washington was inaugurated on April 80, 1789. The ceremony of ad- ministering the oath and the delivery of the inaugural address generally takes | place on the eastern portico of the Capi- tol, often interrupted by showers of rain or snow. President Arthur was sworn into office at his residence in New York City, but subsequently repeated the ceremony in the President’s room at the Capitol. Tyler was sworn in at Brown’s Hotel in Washington. Notwithstanding the imposing and im- portant character ol the ceremony the journals of Congress, which usually con- tain copious mention of inaugurals, made no mention of those of Thomas Jefferson, of the second one of James Madison, of thatof James Monroe, nor of that of An- drew Jackson's second induction into office. The oath taken by an incoming Presi- dent is very brief and simple: “I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully exs- cute the office of President ot the United States, and will to the best of my ability preserve and protect and defend the con- stitution of the United States.” pee st GERMAN-AMERICANS.

The German-American Republican Club celebrated the inaaguration of President William McKinley last nizht by a ban- quet at Normann Hall, 410 Bush street. .

His Return Probably Due to the Change in Administration at Wash- ington. HAVANA, Cusa, March 4.—Captain- General Weyler arrived here at 3 o'clock this afternoon on the transport Legasepi, from Caibarien, province of Santa Clara. He was accompanied by the members of his staff. The arrival of the party was not ex- pected 50 soon and when the signals on Morro Castle announced that the Legasep® was to the eastward, bound in, the news spread rapidly and caused somewhat of a sensation among the Spaniards, who could not imagine why the Captain-General should have hurried to reach Havana. General Weyler Janded at the Muelte de Calabria, which is only a short distance from the palace. Here he was received by the Marquis de Ahumada, who has been acting in his stead during his ab- sence, aud other authorities. Tuere was no great crowd present and the scene was vastly different from that which characterized his return from the | pacification of the province of Pinar del Rio. Instead of riding through crowds of cheering admirers he walked from the waterside to the palace, where he soon retired to his apartments without baving received any popular welcome. | This was due perhaps to his unexpected | arrival which did not allow of any official preparstions being made to welcome him. return to Havana. It is well known that his campaign in Matanzas and Santa Clara has been an tnominious failure, and while he was claiming to have compelled the insur- gents to retreat eastward to Puerto Prin- cipe, they had, in fact, dodged past his columns and pursued their way westward. It is thought that the change in admin- istration in Washington may have much, if not all, to do with his return, as he has been led to believe that President McKin- ley will not sanction the illegal arrest and detention of American citizens, which many cases passed without protest from the Cleveland Government.

SACRAMENTO, CArn, March 4.—The following amendments were made to the general appropriations act in the Assem- bly committee of the whole this after- noon: Raising the appropriation for the University department of viticulture from $5000 to $10,000; State University forestry stations from $5000 to $8000: F sh and Game Commission from $5000 (o $15,000, Hudson sought to raise the appropria- tion for Agricultural district 7 from $2000 to $3000. . Shanahan opposed any more raising of agricultural district appropriations. Other amendments foliow: For estab- lishing and conducting a department for breeding of poultry at the university, $5000; for aid of District Agricultural So- ciery No. 1, from $5000 to $10.000. Melick offered an amendment cutting down the Btate Agricultural Society ap- propriation from $40,000 to $10,000, which was lost, as was also an amendment by Treacy, reducing it to $30,000. s Approved by the Gorernor. SACRAMENTO, CaL., March 4.—Gov- ernor Budd has approved Simpson’s two bills, Senate bill 128, an act relating to the disposition of life estates, and Senate bill 128, an act relating to.conveyance of real property by married men; Braun- hart’s Senate bill 32, reiating 10 the as- sessment of property of persons neglect- ing or 1efusing to make the A-uessor a statement of their property, and Simp- son’s Senate bili 132, relating 1o transfers of reai estate. REED 5 GIVEN A GREAT OVATION Members of Congress Rise to Their Feet and Cheer Him. A House Committee Finds the President Absent From His Residence. At 11:55 A. M Speaker Reed Declared the House A¢journed Sime Die. WASHINGTON, D. C., March 4 —When the House was called to order at 8:30 A. m. but two members, Dalzell (R.) of Penn- sylvania and Dockery (D.) of Missouri, were present, although a few others strag- gled in shortly after. The enrollment of the sundry eivil bill was announced, The timeintervening for an hour or two was passed in practical re- cess, waiting for the S@nate to report its action on the deficiency bill. At10:30 a message was received from the Senate announcing iis action on the deficiency and labor bilis. Phillips (R.) of Pennsylvania, author of the latter measure, moved that the House agree with the Senate amendment, which was done. Dingley (R.) of Maine offered the cus- tomary resolution, which was agreed to, toappoint a committee of three to wait upon the President and inform him that Congress had completed its labors, and it was ready. to adjourn sine die, unless he had something further to communi- cate to it, The Speaker apoointed as such commit- tee Dalizell (R.) of Pennsylvania, Grosve- nor (R.) of Ohio and Sayers (D.) of Texas, the aathor of the resolution asking to be excused from service. The history of the negotiations between the House and the S:nate on the defi- ciency bill was recalled to the House by Cannon (R.) of Illinois for the purpose of showing why the House conferzes would not consent to the insertion in the bill of the appropriation to pay the Bowman and other claims added by the Semate. He said 1t was the belief of the conferees, and he hoped it woula be the policy of the House, that these bills should be confined to appropriations for meeting the current expenses of the Government and to pay legal claims. [Applause.] The amount invcived in the items of dif- ference was about §$3,000,000. The con- ference report was agreed to. The chair announced the appointment of Northway (R.) of Ohio asa member of the joint committee to investigate the charities of the District of Columbia in place of Blue (R.) of Kansas. Cannon moved that the House further insist upon its disagreement to the re- maining items in difference. Bingham (R.) of Pennsylvania demanded a separate vote upon each amendment, the effect of which . was to keep tbe bill before the House to the exclusion of other matters. At 11:30 Dalzeil (R.) of Pennsylvania, from the committee appointéd to visit the President and notify him that Congress | was ready to adjourn rine die, reported that the committee haa been unable to discharge the duty devolving upon it, for the reason that when the membvers reached the White House the President had alresdy departed for the Capitol. | Bingham withdrew his motions for a sepa- | rate vote, and at 11:40 Cannon’s motion to | further disagree and con sent to a confer- ence was agreed to, amid some laughter over the gross improbability of anything being acconiplished. At 11:45 o'clock Payne, Speaker pro tem., called Dockery (D.) of Missouri to | the chair, and his appearance there was greeted with applause by the Republican members. The floor was filled with Rep- resentatives, and for the first time this week there was intsnse voluntary quiet as McMillan (D.) of Tennessee arose 1o in. | troduce a resolution of thanks to Speaker Reed for the courtesy, fidelity and im- partiality with which he Irad presided over the deliberations of the House. The resolution read: Resolved, That the thanks of the House of Reépresentatives are presented to the Hon. Thomas B. Reed, Speaker, for the able, im- partisi and dignified manuer in which he pre- sided over the deliberations of tue House and performed the arduous and important duifes of the chair auring the present term of Cou- gress. On motion of Livingston (D.) of Georgia the eresolution was recorded by a rising vote, the entire body of Representatives rising with much enthusiasm. The re- sult of the vote was announced amid ap- plause on all sides. Speaker Reed was summoned from his room, and as he entered the chamber the members rose to their feet, app/auding as they did so. Reed remained on the steps a moment while Dockery announced the action of the House to him. The Speak- er's usually im passive face betrayed some- thing of the emotion which he felt. His voice, however, was firm when he spoke. Reed said: ‘‘Gentlemen of the House of Representatives: Two years ago you were summoned to your share of legisla- tive work which could not be otherwise than disagreeable, disappointing and unsatisfactory, tor it involved a dismal struggle to adopt a narrowing income to the growinz wauts of a great Nation; growing to be still greater.

SWEAR 70 CROOKEDNESS. Miss Lucille Scott Gives Lively Evidence in the [Idaho Bribery Case. BOISE, Ipano, March 4.—Things are getting quite interesting in the Idaho Sen- atorial bribery cases. Miss Lucille Scott testified before the committee of investi- gation that Representative Perkins told her he wanted to go home with $3000 or $4000 and that it mattered little to him who was elected United States Senator; all he cared for was to make the money out of it. 3 Miss Scott also testified that she had overheard a conversation in a railroad coach between Representative George A. Williams and a lumber - dealer of La Grande County, whose name she had for- gotten, in which Williams said that there was crookedness in the election of Heit- feld and gave the names of s number of legislators, including Joines, Perkins and McCarthy, who had received money for their votes, and that one legislator bad been paid $1700. The witness said she was working in the interest of Dubois, and that Perkins had said he could help her and that his vote was worth $300 anyway. H. 8. Wooley, she testified, told her he bad $12,000 which he could give her if she would secure twelve votes for any man to defeat Dubois, and she mentioned to him the names of nine legislators whom she thought she could handle. Vic Bier- bower, ex-Lieutenant-Governor, and other Republicans, she said, fold her that Heit- feld had control of $40,000 sent out to beat Dubois. Mrs. Joines, wife of the man who made the affidavit, testified that ber husband had given her $250 which he received for voting for Heitfeld. Representative Mitchell testified that C. B. Wheeler offered him $1000 to vote for Dubois, and ¢ harles Bunting told him he could gei $1000 for his vote. Représentative Flanagan said Joines tola him several times that he could geta large sum for voting for Dubois. gl i iy SENATOR WOLCOIT KETURNS. Is Much Encouraged Over the Prospects of a Monetary Conference. NEW YORK, N. Y., March 4.—United States Senator Wolcott, who went abroad on January 2 to organize, if possible, a bi- metallic conierence, arrived here to-day on the White Siar liner Majestic from Liverpool. He is in splendid health, and his wife who accompanied him was much benefited by the sea trip. Senator Wolcott lefi New York on the first train for Washington. It was his in- tention to be present at the inauguration ceremony at the Capitol to-day, but the slow passage of the Maj stic, she being twenty-four hours late in reaching this port, prevented this. The Senutor said he was much encouraged by the outlook abroad, but he refnsed to go into details regarding what he had or had not accom- plished. He said he was very much pleased to hear that Mr. Cleveland had signed the monetary conference bill last night. After explaining that it would beim- possible for him to discuss in detail the progress he had made, Senator Wolcott said: “My visit has been a busy and thor- oughly interesting one. My time has | been wholly spent in London, Paris and Berlin, excepting one day in Amsterdam. I am much encouraged by what I accom- plished abroad and am most hopeful for the future. An international agreement for the remonetization of silver is entirely feasible, and its accomplishment, in my opinion, rests largely with the United States, and is dependent upon the course we pursue. “I must ask you to excuse me from talking more " specifically at this time of my objects,\because what we hope to ac- complish might be seriously hinaered by premature newspaper discussion.” SEneeeias SMILED AT RIS POWER.
