THE CROWD OF TUESDAY.
Speculation Concerning the Amount of Money
Spent in the City.

There has been some practical speculation re-
sarding the crowds that were in the city on Mon
day and Tuesday, and the amount of money
that was put into circulation in business chan
nels by the visitors. The dry goods merchants
say that their sales on Monday were almost I'M
precedented in the history of retail business in
Indianapolis and during last week many thou
sands of dollars worth of mourning goods were
sold. There were, it is estimated, fully 10. 900
persons from neighboring towns in Indiana,
dead Vice president, while lying in state. and the
train records show that about 80, 900 passengers
were brought into town to attend the funeral on
Tuesday. 1t is estimated that the average
not less than 81 so. in addition TO railroad
fare, which went principally into the Golfers of
the hotel and restaurant owners, saloon keepers
and cigar Dealers while all other classes of bust
ness were more or less benefited One of tho
leading restaurateurs claims that 3. 500 people
were fed in his place on Tuesday, while all the
eating houses had their full capacity tested The
hotels, it is claimed, never did a better DAVIS
business. There were 2, 500 people fed at one
house, and the other hotels had as many guests
rs they could possibly accommodate
1t is estimated that the amount spent by citi-
zens on mourning decorations and flowers was
about $40, 600, while the aggregate amount of
cash left in the city by visitors was between
500, 600 and $780, eco The railroads collected
fully $75 eco more. The Big Four. it is reported,
made profit of l5000 while the Panhandle,
Ree-line, Indiana, Bloomington q Western, and
Wabash each Melted between $4,000 and $1,000.
