SUPPLEMENT". — —————————— INAUGURATED. Cleveland and Stevenson Sworn In at Washington. ————— BRILLIANT CEREMONIES. Thousands of Soldiers and Civil- ians Parade Pennsylvania Ave, The President's Address in Full—The Inauguration Ball in the Pension Building—Scenes Along the Line of March—Ex-President Harrison Returns to Indianapolis, Grover Cleveland, of New York, thrice nominated for President of the United States and twice elected, was inducted into that high office for his second term at Washing - ton with appropriate ceremonies and in the presence of a great multitude, The present ¢ pasion was greater than the first, and had {© atmospheric conditions been anything «#0 as favorable, instead of as bad as could possibly Le, there would probably have been 60,000 men in the parade. In 1885 there were at the outside not more than 25,000 men in line in the inaugural parade, The 60,000 were all there waiting to fall in line, but at the last moment many organizations wera compelled to desist from participation, At least 45,000 men marched along the broad avenue leading to the Capitol. Also the Governors of eleven great States, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Mas- sachusetts in the North and East, of Pean- sylvania and Maryland among the Middle States, of Georgia, North and South Caro- lina, and Louisiana in the South, and of Wisconsin in the far West, participated in the National ceremonies, and thersby em- phagized the complete restoration of Na- tional unity, MRS, CLEVELAND, The arder of proceading was almost idan. tically the same as four years ago, with the action of the chief participants reversed, and differed little, except in the extent of the demonstration, from the cersmonies of eight ears ago, which brought Mr, Cleveland to ashington for the first time in his public | carver The scone along the line of march was such | ag po city but Washington and no street but its broad, well paved Peonsyivania avenue | could produce he heavy rainstorm of the early part of the week washed away the snow, but it was renewed on the morning of the inauguration. Pablic and private stands erected along the line of march had an estimated seating capacity of 60,000 persons, and every one of the sheltered ones was well filled, The two railroads, the Baltimore and Ohio and the Pennsylvania, which alone up to | the present time have the right of entry into | the city, were taxed to their utmost capacity Thousands of other visitors came in by river and by road. Boating and coaching parties were organized from Maryland. The steam- boats anchored in the river afforded sleeping accommodations for their guests, and the ing parties were able to drive to the rhs and there obtained freer and more airy accommodations than in the densely crowded city. Windows commanding a wiew of the parade brought high prices, and advantageous seats on the public stands had been sold at prices ranging from $5 up and down, Heavy snow fell in great soft flakes, melt. ing as they fell, but which, driven wind, rendered umbrellas a useless protec- tion. The who were to participate fn the first part of the proceediogs pre. sented a wintry appearance muffle! in their snow-covered overcoats, the guns of the artillery covered with tarpaulins and snow, The concourse in the streets were nearly all under umbrellas and the open stands were shunned, while the covered ones were eager. ly sought. The admirable asphalt pave- ments of Washington reduced the discomfort to a minimum, and while there was abun dances of moisture there was no mud, The proosedings at the Capitol followed the programme od by the Committee of Arrangements, The east doors of the Sen- ate wing of the Capitol were opensd at 10 o'clock a. m. to thoss entitled to admission, The doors of the Senate Chamber were opened at 11 o'clock a, m. to those entitled admission, | us to constantly watch for ev } tional vigor. from the | Capitol to a point beyond the White House | by the | to Mr. Btevenson, who immediately ealled the Senate of the Fifty-third Congress to "order in extra session, and after he had de livered his speech proceeded quickly to the r A the nization of the new Senate under the call an extra session had been completed the swearing in of the mem- bers elect those assembled in the Senate Chamber proceeded through the rotunda to Capitol in the following order: he Marshal of the District of Columbia and Marshal of the Supreme Court, The ex-Viee President.

Mombers of the House of Representatives and members-elect, Governors of States, ex- members of the Benate of the United States, officers of the Senate and officers of the House of Representatives, It was 1:20 o'clock when the party started for the east portico, On reaching the portico the President and President-elect took the seats reserved for them, the Chief Justice on their right and the Sergeant-at-Arms of the Senate ou their left. There was no waste of time in going on with the ceremony “of inauguration, Fith a glances about toward his friends who sat near, Mr, Cleveland arose, removed his silk bat, and stepped forward to the little desk in the centre of the platform, It looked very uncomfortable to see him remove his hat, and there were shouts of “Pat on that hat,” to which ho gave npt the slightest attention. He held it by his side, in bis left nand, with his right hand partly thrust into his over- coat pocket, Flecks of snow played about his face. The wind that carried the flags on the Capitol stifly, and from west to east, also carried the words of Mr. Cleveland as he began his inaugural address, THE INAUGURAL ADDRESS President Cleveland's inaugural was as follows: My follow citizsns—In obedience to the mandate of my countrymen I am abopt to dedicate myself to their service under the sanction of a solemn oath Deeply movel by the expression of confidence and personal attachment which has called me to this ser- vice, I am sure my gratitude can make no better return than the pledge | now give be- fore God and these witnesses of unreserved and complete devotion to the interests and welfare &f those who have honored me I deem it fitting on this occasion, while indicating the opinions I hold concerning public questions of present importance, also to briefly refer to the existence of certain conditions and tendencies among our people which seem to menace the integrity and nse. fulness of their Government While every American citizen must ocontempiate with the utmost pride and enthusiasm the growth and expansion of our country, the address | sufficiency of our mstitutions to stand against | the rudest shocks of violence, the wonderful thrift and enterprise of our people, {and the demmonstrated superiority eof our free CGoveramont, it t threatens our Na. insidious SnRrapby. Be ne .. confidence of sturdy bealth courts the stern- est activities of life and rejoices in the bardihood of constant labor may still have lurking near his vitals the unheeded disease that dooms him to sudden collapse, It can- not be doubted that our stupendous achieve ments as 8 people and our country’s robust | strength have given rise to a headissnoes of | those laws governing our National health, which we can no more evade than human {life can escape the laws of God and | nature, Manitestly nothing is mare vital to our supremacy as a Natioo and to the bene ficient purposes of our Government than a sound and stable currency. Its exposure to | degradation should at once arouse to activity the most enlightenad statesmansbip; and the danger of depreciation in the | power of the wages paid to toil should far- nish the strongest incentive to prompt and | conservative precaution, “In dealing with our present embarrass ing situation as related to this subject, we will be wise if we temper our confidence | and faith in our National strength and re sources with the frank concession that even these will not permit us to defy with im- punity the inexorable laws of finance and trade. At the same time in our «forts to adjust differences of opinion we should be free from intolerance and passion, and our judgments should be unmoved by alluring shirases and unvexed by selfish interests i { am confident that such an approach to the subject will result in prudent and effective remadial legislation, In the meantime, so far as the Executive branch of the Govern. ment can intervene, none of the powers with which it is invested will be withheld when their exercise is deomad necessary to main. tain our National credit or avert financial | disaster. Closely related to the exaggerated confi- dence in our country's greatoess which tends to a disregard of the rules of National safety, another danger conlronts us not lew serious, | reler to the prevalence of a popu- lar disposition to expect from the operation of the Government especial and direct indi vidual advantages, The verdict of our voters which condemned the injustice of maintain. ing protection for protection’s sake, enjoins | upon the people's servants the duty of ex- posing and destroying the brood of kindred evils which are the unwholesome progeny of paternalism. This is the bane of republican institutions and the con stant peril of our Government by the people, It degrades to the purposes of wily craft the plan of rule our fathers os tablished and bequeathed to us as an object of our love and veneration. It perverts the patriotic sentiment of our countrymen, and | tempts them to a pitiful calculation of the sordid gain to be received from their Gov- ernment’s maintenance, It undermines the self reliance of our ple, and substi- tutes in its place dependence upon govern- mental favoritism, It stifles the spirit of true Americanism and stupefles every on- ly and its they remained until they entered the Senate | Here they occu Charaber, the platform an the central portico of the PRESIDENT OLEVELAND, | Carne VICE-PRESIDENT'STEVENSON, guishing enterprises in which they have no concern. It leads also to a challange of wild and reckless pension expenditure which overleaps the bounds of grate. ful recognition of patriotic service, and prostitutes to vicious uses the eople’s romps and genorous impulse to ald those disabled in their country’s defence. Every thoughtful American must realize the im- portance of checking, at its beginning, any tendency in public or private station to re- gard frugality and economy as virtues which we may safely outgrow. The tolera- tion of this results in the waste of the people's money by their chosen servants and encourages prodigality and extravagance in the home life of our countrymen. Under our scheme of govermment the waste of public money is a crime against the citizen; and the contempt of our people for economy and frugality in their personal affairs deplorably saps the strength and sturdiness of our National character. It is | & plain dictate of honesty and good govern. | ment that public expooditures should be { limitad by public necessity, and that this | should be measured by rules of strict econ- {omy: and it is equally clear that frugality among the people fs the best guarantee of a | contented and strong support of free insti. | tutions, One mode of the misappropriation of public funds is avoided, when appoint ments to offles, instead of being the re wards of partisan activity, are awarded to those whose efficiency promises a fair return of work for the compensation paid to them. To secure the fitness and competency of ap pointees to office, and to remove from politi- cal action the demoralizing madness for spoils, Civil Service Reform has found a place in our public policy and laws. The benefits already gained through this instro- mentality, and the further usefulness it promises, entitle it to the hearty support and encouragement of all who desire to see our public service well performed, or who hope or the elevation of political sentiment and the purification of political methods, purchasing | EX-FRESIDENT HARRISON, The existence of immense aggregations of kindred enterprises and combinations of business interests, formal for the purpose of Hmiting production and fixing prices, is in- consistent with the fair flalds which ought { to be opens to every independent activity. | Legitimate strife in business should not be | superseded by an enforced concession to the | demands of combinations that have the | power to destroy, nor should the people to {be served lose the benefit of cheapness | which usually results from wholesome com. petition. Thess aggregations and combine tions frequently constitute conspiracies against the interests of the people, and inall their phases they are unnatural and op- {posed to our American sense of fair-4 iness. To the extent that they can be { reached and restrained by Federal power, | the general Government should relieve our citizens from their interference and exac. tions. Loysity to the principles upon which | our Government rests positively demands | that the equality before the law which it | guarantees to every citizen should be just and fairly conceded in all parts of the land. The enjoyment of this right follows the badge of citizenship wherever found, and | unimpaired by race or color, it s for recognition to American manliness and fairness, Our relations with the Indians located within our borders impose upon us responsi- bilities wo cannot escape. Humanity and consistency require us to treat them with forbearance, and in our dealings with them to honestly and considerately regard their | rights and interests. Every effort should be made to lead them, through the paths of civilization and education, to self support. ing and independent citizenship. In the meantime, as the Nation's they | should be promply defended against the ou- | pidity of designing men and stielded from | every influence or temptation that retards | their advancement.

I shall, to the best of my ability, and within my sphere of duty, preserve the Constitution by loyally protecting evary grant of Federal | power it contains, by defending all its re straints when attacked by impatience: and restlessness, and by enforeing its limitations and reservations in favor of the Htates and tho people.

But ap the front row Mrs. Cleveland stepped promptly and light ly into the inclossd space where the insugu ral address had been delivered, and it was she who who was first to stop the President and to greet him with a kiss President Cleveland and ex-Premident Har- rison returned to the chamber, repairing at onos to Mr. Morton's private room. Here an elaborate buffet lunch was ready and was speedily enjoyed.
