30A Nice Question of Etiquette. To the question of international and official etiquette the committee devoted itself with vigor throughout the greater part of a session which lasted five hours. One of the vexed questions was as to whether Director General Davis should ride with the Duke of Veragua during the Columbian parade and President Palmer ride with President Cleveland, or whether President Palmer should ride with the Duke of Veragua and Director General Davis with President Cleveland. For the proper solution of this problem the committee feels that further deliberation will be necessary and it will be again taken up at 9 o'clock this morning, when the committee will meet at its old headquarters in the RandMcNally Building. Director of Works Burnham and Col. Rice, commanding the Columbian Guards, spent half an hour with the committee during the afternoon. To Col. Rice was given the charge of the Columbian parade after it reaches the entrance to Jackson Park. Director of Works Burnham was asked as to the advisability of allowing the cavalry escort to enter the park in defiance of the rule which forbids the use of the road by equestrians after the gates are opened. It was mutually agreed that the cavalrymen should be allowed to come in. | 30 |
