Wilson Takes Oath. Monroe Officer Seeks Fraudster Lane y
A Monroe officer, T B Laney, spent years pursuing a worthless check case against Eucet alias B Awdry, tied to Russell Edgeworth at the Gloucester hotel. After Andry, deemed insane, denied Monroe, the case led to a paid check and dropped charges while other flier schemes surfaced, including Rawls in New Jersey, and small checks defrauded by suspects in Monroe. President Wilson then took the oath for his second term at noon in the Capitol, with Chief Justice White administering and Cabinet members in attendance.

Wilson Faces Senate Stand Still On Arm Ship Bill
A group of 12 Republican Senators and supporters accuse Wilson of lacking authority to arm merchant ships as the armed neutrality bill stalls in the Senate. The President calls for an extra session to push action, while filibusters by Lafollette and allies block the measure despite broad support in both chambers. Senate records show 76 senators favored passage with House support already passed. The crisis centers on overriding rules that allow unlimited debate and throttle majority will.

Historic 1821 precedent guides presidential inauguration
Chief Justice Marshall in 1821 wrote a precedent confirming there is no interregnum when March 4 falls on a Sunday, guiding the inauguration of President Wilson. The ruling also rejects the idea that the secretary of state serves as president for a day. The letter was sent to John Quincy Adams, then secretary of state and future president, who sought Marshall's advice.
