wended its way by circuitous route to
the cemetery, the circuit making it
scarcely possible to reach the cemetery

passed in numbers any spectacle ever

When the first part of the pro-

O'clock it was found impossible to pene-
trate the dense masses assembled there,
and after a struggle the ,olice had to
abandon the effort to make a way
through the crowd. 1t was then decided
to close the lower gate. This was eff
fected amid great disorder Just as the
hearse reached the spot The hearse
was then escorted to thr 5,,.n65,&e.
The coffin was removed and pT ,-,I;i
platform especially constructed xm such
way that the procession could file
around it and have " view of the bier.
At o'clock, when dusk was fast falling
on the scene, the procession was still
filing around the bier, so orders were
given to remove the coffin to the side of
the grave. The crush on all sides was
terrible and the noise of shrieking women
and of children squeezed in the throng
and the shouts of men struggling amid
the crush, made inaudible the voices of
the clergy reciting the ritual of the
church of England. When the crowd
had thinned away, the friends grouped
again about the grave and took last
look at the coffin. 1t was o'clock when
the mourners started to return to the
city.

posed to Have Been Lost-A Schooner
Wrecked and Four Lives Lost.
New YORK, Oct. 1.-THE fearful
storm which ragged i'll this vicinity since
Sunday has wrought immense damage
along the Long Island coast. At Rock
away waves nearly thirty feet high are
lashing the beach, plowing far into the
sand and washing buildings and boats
out to sea. Many pleasure crafts have
been missing since Sunday, and it is
feared they have been lost with all Oh
board. George White. Alfred Kane,
Mark Thulsby and Alden Little, of New
York, hired two boats Sunday for days
fishing. They have not since been seen,
but one of the boats has been picked up,
and there is hardly doubt but that all
four have been drowned.
Sixteen Probably Drowned.
AT Hollands station, on Rockaway
beach, seven boats We're let out on Sun
day. They carried sixteen men. None
of them have since been seen and it is
thought the storm carried them out to
sea. AS the water outside the inlet
ragged mountains high, so that small
boat could scarcely live minute in it,
the sixteen men were PROBABLY drowned.
A two masted schooner sailed by Jams
Moore and having crew of three men,
put out from Canarsie, Sunday after
noon. She was loaded with coal and
bound for Baltimore. She was caught
in the storm and the three sailors We're
swept off the deck while trying to make
sail. Moore clung to mast and was
saved, but only after drifting around for
over twenty-four hours and then at the
loss of Julius Quay, Il life saver, who
went out to the vessel in breeches
buoy and was drowned. Moore was
finally rescued. He is believed to be
insane from his awful experience as he
talks in an incoherent way and con-
stantly begs to be taken back to the
boat.
