The city tonight was alive with, en thusiasm and thousands gayly parad ed, the electrically emblazoned streets. Constantly arriving throngs of visit ors, military organizations and march ing clubs served to keep excitement alive- far into the night, the coming of Tammany Braves from New York, their first invasion of Washington for twenty years, - marking the climax of the pre-inaugural demonstrations.

By 5 o'clock the inauguration of Woodrow Wilson Will have been history. Students Stand with Bared Heads. President-eject Wilson's arrival in SHoehington was quite similar to his aeparture from Princeton. Students of Princeton university formed in a Barrow lane stretching from the train steps to the president's room in the Union station. There was deep silence as the president-elect, followed by members of his family walked through the avenue formed by the students. The latter stood with the'ir hats off. Mr. Wilson STso doffed his silk hat. Walking with him were William Corcoran Eustis, chairman of the inaugural committee, Jid Thomas Nelson Page, chaicjrfan of the Wilson reception committee. Persistent Cheering by Students.. In the president's room Mr. Wilson was Introduced to the fifty members of the reception committee while the students grouped themselves on the esplanade just outside the station. Here, as Mr. Wilson got into a White House automobile, cheer after cheer came from the Princeton students. First theygave the "locomotive" cheer w-ith its "Sis-Boom-Ah" for "Wilson," and then for "Princeton." They alter nated this with a thundering roar un til the president-elect started away. Colonel Spencer C. Cosby, chief aide to President Taft, and a naval and a military aid, accompanied Mr. Wil son from the White House to his ho tel. There were cheers along the way as pedestrians recognized the party. Captain "Bill" McDonald Greeted. ' The first person to greet the president-elect and Mrs. Wilson on the steps of the hotel was Captain "Bill" McDonald, the aged Texas ranger and bodyguard to Mr. . Wilson during the recent campaign. - "How are you?"' exclaimed the pres- -1dent-elect and Mrs. Wilson at the ame time as they stepped rapidly forward and grasped Captain McDon ald's hands. The captain who it is frequently said in Texas is filled with mo much lead from shooting affrays In the ranger service that he would ink if he went swimming was over come with joy, He wore a big felt I The Bulletin's Circulation In Norwich is Double That of Atiy combrero an Incongruous companion to the silk hat of the president-elect. A Call by the Marshall. "I'd never a-died happy if I hadn't been here today" said Captain "Bill" as he walked arm in arm into the hotel with Mr. Wilson. The president-elect found the cor ridors of the ' hotel crowded with Princeton alumni wearing orange and black rosettes. The Wilsons went im mediately to their suite on the fourth floor where John W. Wilson a cousin of the president-elect and a score of relatives were waiting to receive them. The president-elect had been in hi3 rooms but a few minutes when Vice President-elect Marshall and Mrs. Marshall called to pay their respects. Home-like Atmosphere on Train. Mr. Wilson's three and a half hour trip from Princeton to the national capital seemed like a moment to him, he said. He found aboard the train which the students had provided especially- for him, every comfort and con venience. They had invited also some of the intimate friends of the -Wilson family, and the latter found them selves in a home-like . atmosphere all the way. Mr. Wilson sat In the rear parlor car with his family, chatting most of the time with his friends. Colonel Thomas H. Birch, personal aide to Mr. Wilson, as governor of New Jer sey, appeared for the first time m gold braid uniform. It was one of the rare occasions when Mr. Wilson was ac companied by a uniformed aide and he was somewhat uneasy over it. When his chief came Into the smoking com partment, the colonel rose ceremoni ously. The White House Baby. "Don't start that," laughed Mr. Wil son good naturedly. "I'm nobody yet." It was a happy family group on the train. With Mrs. Annie Howe, a sis ter of the president-elect, who joined the party at West Philadelphia, came her daughter, Mrs. Perrin Cothran. and granddaughter, Josephine. The Cothran baby Is a favorite with the president-elect and probably will be a frequent visitor at the White House. Little Josephine was the object of much attention from the family and when the train stopped at Baltimore she occupied a conspicuous place at the window from which vantage point she struck up an Immediate acquaint ance with the crowd. MAKEUP OF THE CABINET. A Seml-Official Announcement of Its Personnel. Washington, March 3. Though President-elect Wilson will not send the names of his cabinet to the senate until tomorrow afternoon, authorita tive Information as to its personnel came from members of his official family when he arrived, today.

Wilson of Pennsylvania The selection of Vice Chancellor Garrison of New Jersey to be secre tary of war is in line with the idea the president-elect has always ha-1 that the head of the war department should be a man of unusual adminis trative ability.

JPice Chancellor Garrison is a close friend of Mr. Wilson and Is regarded as one of the best men New Jersey has ever elevated to the bench. The choosing of David Franklin Houston, chancellor of Washington university, St. Louis, Mo., for the port folio of agriculture, also occasions lit tle surprise, as Mr. Wilson's intimate knowledge of agricultural questions has led him to seek a man familiar with the processes of advancing sci entific farming and allied questions in this country. Mr. Houston was pres ident of the Texas Agricultural and Mechanical college for a number of years. - For the portfolio of secretary of the interior, it is said Mr. Wilson has been Influenced to select a westerner of legal training. Franklin K. Lane's experience as interstate commerce commissioner it is assumed has fitted him for executive and judicial task:i involved in administering the public land policy of the country. 10,000 GARMENT WORKERS ARE STILL DISSATISFIED.

There was some firing near the line late today, caused by an attempt of the negro troops to intercept what was supposed to toe a detachment of Mexi can troops crossing the line. It proved to be a party of Mexicans gathering firewood with pack animals. No one was wounded. Sunday's Skirmish. Accoording to the army officers, Lieutenant Nicholson and his 15 men were fired upon Sunday without warn ing by 75 Mexican federals. The pa trol returned - the fire but in a few minutes retreated to the Calumet and Arizona smelter and Bent for rein forcements.

Th troopers replied vigorously and a gen eral engagement was soon on. The opposing forces were in skirmish lines 800 yards apart, with the international line between them. After 30 minutes the Mexicans retreated beyond the range of the troopers rifles. The Americans did not cross the line. Rebel Messenger Arrested. An incident which preceded the skir mish, and which Is believed by some observers to have some connection with it, was the arreet by the border patrol Saturday afternoon of Juan Castillo as he was trying to cross from the American side to Apia Prieta with messages from E. Callos, leader of the Maderista junta in Douglas, to his followers in Sonorft. The messages, were addressed to the commander of the Maderista force which disarmed the federal garrison at Fronteras last week, and demanded the release of two Maderista officers held captive by the regulars.

Mills Has Left Hospital SLIPS AWAY WITHOUT NOTIFY ING POLICE. HER CASE PUZZUNG Police Still Working on Footpad The ory, But Admit Themselves Unable to Make Much Headway. Chicago, March 3. Mrs. Mabel Mills, wife of a real estate dealer of San Antonio, Texas, whose mysterious loss of more than $40,000 presumably either by robbery or accident Saturday night, stirred the police of jffivanston, a sub urb, to an extended investigation of the circumstances, today left the hos pital to which she had been taken when found dazed nd injured and her pres- ent whereabouts is as much of a mys tery as that of the large sum of money which so strangely disappeared. " May Have Gone to St. Louis. Airs. Mills left early in the after noon without giving the police notice although she had promised Chief Shaf fer she would communicate with him when she decided to depart. The chief did not learn that she had left until nightfall, when he telephoned to in quire about her condition. He was then told she had been gone several hours. The belief at present is that Mrs. Mills left Chicago tonight for St. Louis, where she had previously told the police she had some business to transact. - Police More Puzzled Than Ever. Searching the ground where Mrs. Mills says she struggled for more than an hour and a half in the snow and under porches where it was hoped the money, all in $1,000 bills, might have been blown by the gale, the police af ter interviewing the woman at a hos pital, announced they had discovered these facts, which they said only puz zled them. Could Not Have Been Unconscious. Mrs. Mills says -she became con scious only when she was being picked up on the porch of Mrs. A. J. Cooper to which sho had crawled, whereas Chief of Police Shaffer of Evanston said he had good authority for stat ing that the bruise on the back of the woman's Tiead was not sufficient to have ' rendered her unconscious and the physicians at the hospital said Mrs. Mills could not have lost consciousness from any other cause. Indifferent About Loss of Money. The envelope' in whicli Mrs. Mills said she carried the money on the street and which vras found empty had not been- sealed, although it was one of the regular safety deposit envelopes taken from a hotel where ehe had been stopping and whet'e the clerk said he had seen the money sealed. Mrs. Mills told the police she was Indifferent about the loss of the money and said she wanted to leave the city. She announced she might be in St. Louls by tomorrow. After going thor oughly Into the case Chief Shaffer said he had no basis upon which, to make any arrests. Police Chief Skeptical. "I told Mrs. Mills that being a prac tical business woman accustomed to handle large sums of money, as she said she had in her real estate deal ings in San Antonio, It appeared to me unusual that she should have ven tured to walk along a dark suburban street with $41,000 In cash in her pock, etbook," said Chief Shaffer. "She only repeated her previous story that she had been to dinner at the home of Mrs. Stevens, a friend, that she was on her way to a railway station ,when, discovering ,she had left her ticket and some money at Mrs. Stevens', she returned to get what she had left It was . on her way back that she said she lost the money. The woman does not insist she was robbed. She says she became unconscious and when re vived the money was gone. Lapse of Time Unaccounted For. "In the face of the circumstances, I was told at the hospital that the blow on the woman's head, whether from a fall or from a fist, was not severe enough to have more than stunned her. A curious thing la that one hour and thirty minutes elapsed between the time she started to walk back to Mrs. Stevens' and the time she was found on Mrs. Cooper's porch a block away from Mrs. Stevens' home. "In an envelope which Mrs. Mills left at Mrs. Stevens', home and for which she was returning I found $1,950. The envelope was sealed and was marked 'R. O. Ball, San Antonio, Texas. Do not open until Wednes day.' That opened up another line of inquiry. Still Working on Footpad Theory. "Mrs. Mills said she was going to St. Louis and then to Kansas City and she intended to send the money to Mr. Ball, her banker, from Kansas City. Why she instructed that the en velope should not be opened until Wednesday was not clearly explained, for if she sent the envelope from Kan sas City it would not have reached San Antonio before Wednesday un less she meant Wednesday of next week. She said she had set aside that much money to pay a bill." In spite of the puzzling features of the case. Chief Shaffer said he was continuing to work on the theory that footpads saw Mrs. Mills handle the money on an elevated train and fol lowing her, knocked her down when she walked up a dark street. INDIANS EXPRESS DESIRE TO PARADE. Feel That They Have a Right in In augural Procession. Washington, March 8 Representa tives of eleven tribes of Indians as sembled In council today in the office of Acting Commissioner of Indian Af fairs Abbott and solemnly expressed their conviction that they were en titled to take active part In the In auguration of a president of the United States.

Split Op' Suffrage Procession and Cavalry is Called Out THE PARADERS FORCED TO FIGHT THEIR WAY Many Women in Tears and MUs Helen Keller Completely Un nervedPolice Make Poor Showing Against Hoodlums But Cavalry Forces Path For Marchers Mrs. Taft and Miss Taft Leave Stand Disgusted Police Denounced. Washington, March 3. Five thou sand women, marching in the woman suffrage pageant today, practically fought their way foot by foot up Pennsylvania avenue through a surg ing mob that completely defied the Washington police, swamped the marchers and broke their procession into little companies. The women -trudging stoutly along under great difficulties were able to complete their march only when troops of cavalry fram Fort Myer were rushed into Washington to take charge of Penn sylvania avenue. No inauguration has ever produced such scenes, which ir many Instances amounted to nothing less than riots. . Washington Police Denounced. Later in Continental hall the women turned what was to have been a suf frage demonstration into an indigna tion meeting in which the Washingtoi police were roundly denounced i.T their inactivity and resolutions v.-r passed calling upon President-ei-ny Wilson and the incoming congress 1 make an investigation and locate tn responsibility for the indignities tn marchers suffered.

Jeered and Insulted by Mobs. The scenes which attended the en try of "General" Rosalie Jones and her "hikers" on Thursday, when the bedraggled women had to fight their way up Pennsylvania avenue swamped by a mob with which a few police men struggled in vain, were repeated today, but upon a vastly larger scale. The marchers had to fight their way from the start, and took more than an hour in makmg the .first ten block?. Manv of the women were in tears un der the jibes and insults of the mob that lined the route. No Efforts to Control Crowds. Although stout wire ropes had been stretched up and down the length of Pennsylvania "avenue from the Peace monument to the Mall behind the White House, the enormous crowds that gathered early to gain points of vantage overstepped them or crowded beneath. Apparently no effort wp.s made to drive back the trespassers in .the early hours, with the result that when the parade started it faced at almost every hundred yards a solid wall of humanity. , Pluckily Resent Insults, j On the whole. It was a hostile crowd through which the women marched. Miss Inez Mulholland, herald of the procession, distinguifihed herself by aiding in riding down a mob that blocked the way and threatened to disrupt the parade. Another woman member of the petticoat cavalry struck a hoodlum a stinging blow across the face with her riding crop in. reply to a scurrilous remark as she was passing. The mounted police rode hither and yon, but seemed powerless to stem the tide of humanity. Mrs. Taft Disgusted. A group of hoodlums gathered in front of the reviewing stand, in which sat Mrs. Taft and Miss Helen Taft and a half dozen invited puests from the White House. They kept up a running fire of caustic comment. Apparently no effort was made to remove them and, evidently disgusted, the Whites House party left before the procession had paassed in its halting and inter- AMERICANS OPPRESSED BY AMERICAN TROOPS. Senator Criticises Policy of Patrolling Mexican Border. Washington, March 8 An attack on the policy pursued by the United States in patrolling the Mexican border during the Mexican revolutions was made in the senate today by Sen ator Fall of New Mexico, a member of the special investigating committee that has conducted a recent investiga tion into border conditions. Senator Fall declared that the com mittee in its investigation along the border from San Diego, Calif., to ifew Orleans had come in contact frequent ly with cases where the armed forces of the United States had been used to arrest American citizens on American soil. "The American troops have been used to oppress American citizens in their own country," said Senator Fall, "Instead of being used to protect them they were being robbed and murdered on this side of the border line. Ameri cans have been thrown into prison and deprived of life and liberty. "This is not a single instance, but a condition that has been general along tho border for over a year." Senator Fall reviewed in some de tail the testimony taken by the special committe of which Senator Smith of Michigan, was chairman. He said that scores of witnesses resident in Mexi co testified Mo the fact that they had been attacked simply because of their American citizenship. The United States, he said .extend ed no protection to these people. "We would be much . more justified In sending troops into Mexico than wo were in sending marines into Nica ragua," he declared.

Beautiful In coloring and grouping, the dramatic symbolization of women's as pirations for political freedom was completed long before the head of tha parade was in sight. In their thia dresses and bare arms, the perform ers waited, shivering, for more than an hour, until Anally they were forced to seek refuge within the big build ing. Cavalry Greeted with Applause by Lav Abiding. Around the treasury department th crowds were seemingly Immovable. It was as though the bluecoatg charged a stone wall. Occasionally the mob gave way in one place, only to break ever and under the wire hedge at some other. When the cavalry suddenly appeared ;here was a wild outburst of applaun in the reviewing stand. The men in .Town virtually brushed asid th n ounted -nd foot police and took charge. Troopers Charge Upon Mobs. In two lines the troop charged tho crowds. Evidently realizing they would be ridden down the mobs fought their way back. When they hesitated, the cavalrymen, under the orders of their officers, did not hesitate. Their hore were driven Into the throngs and whirled and wheeled until hooting men and women were forced to retreat. A space was quickly cleared. The parade In itself. In s-pite of the delay, was a great success. Pass1njr through two walls of antagonistic hu manity, the marchers for the raott part kept their temper. They suffered in sult and closed their ears to Jibes and jeers.

She carried a great bunch of American Beauty roses which mads a. splash of scarlet against the doll brown of her hooded tramping gown.

Dr. Shaw Ashamed of Washington. The opening address by Xr. Anns' Shaw, president of the National Amer ican. Woman's Suffrage association was a .hitter excoriation of the police. "Never was I so ashamed cf our national ea.pital before," she sail. "Tf anything could prove the need of tho -ballot nothing could prove it moro than the treatment we received today. The women In the parade showed won derful dignity and self respect by keep ing cool in the midst of insult and lewd remarks.
