AN IMMENSE FUNERAL CoRTEGE

Follows the Leaders, Remains to the
Tomb in GIasnevin.
At 2:45 the funeral cortege started for
the grave in Glasnevin cemetery. 1t was
led by the executive of the Parnell lead
ship committee, and following came the
bier drawn by six black horses. Sur
rounding the bier were the parliamentary
colleagues of Parnell. ParnePs favorite
horse followed the bier. Then came q
strong body of Gaels, headed by James
Stephens, the lannon's Fenian organizer;
John O'Leary, the well-known advocate
of an Irish republic, and other prominent
features of the procession were John
OConnor, M. p, leading by the arm the
blind M. p, Mr.. w. A. Mcdonald, of Os-
sorry. and the lord mayor of Dublin in Off
cial state, preceded by the city marshal
and sword and mace bearers.
A Struggle at the Cemetery Gate.
Bands dropped into the procession where
they could, and in some cases were so close
together that they made discord, and
spoiled the cadence Of the march. AS the
head of the procession reached the lower
gate of the cemetery it was found that
such dense mass of people was wedged
in front of the gate that the cortege could
not get through. There was short strug-
gle with police who tried to open q
road, but it was given up, and the process
sion went to the upper gate, where the en-
trance was effected. Inside the cemetery
the coffin was taken from the hearse and
placed on platform so that the process
sion could file past and view it. 1t was 6
O'Clock before this had been well begun,

The Funeral Ceremony.
A circle was formed and in this
the lord mayor and civic dignitaries,
and Parnell's colleagues and relatives
stationed themselves. The crush on all
sides was terrible, and the noise of Shrek
ing women and of children squeezed in
the throng, and the shouts of men strug-
Cling amid the crush made inaudible the
voices of the clergy reciting the ritual of
the Church of England. The first portion
of the service had been celebrated at st.
Nicholas, where the remains rested for
twenty minutes en- route for the city hall.
At the grave the Rev. Mr.. Vincent, of the
Rotunda chapel, andthe Rev. George Fry. an
Irish Protestant clergyman from Man

cut the service short, as the crowd broke
through the protecting circle and over
whelmed the inner group
Final Farewell in the Gloom.
Some time after, in dead darkness, when
the crowd had thinned away, the friends
grouped again about the grave and took
last look at the coffin. 1t was z o'clock
when the mourners started to return to
the city. The funeral, if not grand
spectacle from snowy point of view, had
an especially solemn interest attaching to
a gravely conducted demonstration. The
intense seriousness of feeling pervading
the mu ttu de gave unique character to
the whole memorable manifestation.

Her head was cut open and she was in

city where she died. The police state the

that she was en- route to Bay City, Mich.
A note in her pocket stated that she was
going to her sister at West Branch Mich.
A card with the name Ida G. Voorhees,,
was also found in her pocket. She was
we'll dressed and wore some valuable
rings. The supposition is that she was a
somnambulist and walked off the train
while asleep

Another Attempt at Train wrecking.

WEST MIDWAY, Mass, Oct. 12-An at
tempt was made here Thursday night to
wreck the o'clock train from Boston. A
rock weighing 100 pounds was placed on
the track at a point where the train at
tains its greatest speed between Boston
and Woonsocket. The pilot and connect
ing rods of the engine were broken, but
the train was not derailed.

Manifesto.
LONDON, Oct. 13.-Parnell's colleagues
met last night for quiet discussion of
the situation. Toward the close of the
meeting it was decided to issue mani
festo appealing to the Irish people to
maintain their faction for an independent
fight. At midnight they gave out the
manifesto, which in brief declares their
intention to stand by the cause of their
dead leader and carry on the fight on the
lines pursued by him. The manifesto is
signed by twenty-eight out of the thirty
one Parnell members.

CHARLES STEWART pARNELI.

Populations from Liverpool, Manchester,
Preston, and Newcastle, all destined for
Dublin, joined the train. The parlia
mentary colleagues of Parnell, including
John Redmond, John O'Connor, Joseph
Nolan, DR.. Fitzgerald, James O'Kelly,
and Henry Campbell, were among the
people that greeted the Populations on
their arrival at Holyhead, where the train
got in at o'clock in the morning, in wet
and hazy weather, that well became the
mournfulEess of the scene. Groups were
collected on the quay to watch the trans
fer of the coffin from the train to the mail
boat Ireland.
A Weird and MOurnful Scene.
1t was most depressing spectacle. The
darkness as the body was borne from the
train was unrelieved except by a few
lamps that fickered uncannily, throwing
q weird light over the large, white wooden
case that contained the coffin. The case
was borne on the shoulders of seamen
to the side of the vessel. The Parnellite
members of parliament and Populations
followed with uncovered heads, and sobs
that could not be suppressed gave testi-
mony to their grief rs the procession
filed down the double gangway into the
ship. The coffin was deposited in an in
closure specially fitted up for it. Through

The crowd at once made preparations
for storming the Jail. There were fully
5000 people in the mob. The mob secured
big steel rail and marched to the east
door, They had just started to use it as a
battering ram when committee of citi-
zens appeared at the Jail door and made
proposition to the crowd to have COM
mittee appointed to go through the Jail

the committee reported that five of the
men had been released and the other two
had been taken out of town for safe keep

Condemnation Proceedings To no Pushed

CHICAGO. Oct. l4.-What may he con-
sidered as being the first real work in the
building of the Hennepin canal. from the
Illinois river to the mouth of the Rock
river, was begun in District Attorney
Milchrist's Office yesterday, when the last
conference was held between Mr.. Milchrist
and Captain Marshall. the government
engineer. The plans for acquiring the
ninety strip necessary to the digging
OF the canal were discussed, and 1t was
decided to go to Peoria next Monday and
push the condemnation proceedings begun
some time ago to secure the land.
Many Land Owners Compromising.
The condemnation suits will not Jake
long in trying, and Mr.. Milchrist and
Judge Blodgett think two weeks will be
occupied in the hearing of the cases.
Many of the owners of the land along the
route have compromised with the govern
ment, and titles for about fifteen miles of
the route are already in the possession of
the government. The Hennepin canal Is
intended to make a short route from the
Illinois river to the Mississippi, large
enough to accommodate vessels drawing
ten feet of water. The last congress APP
propriated $500, 900 to begin the work, and
before this amount is exhausted it is eX-
pected that congress will make further
appropriation.

WASN'T READY FOR THE LYNcHERs
The Sheriff Had Heard the Wild Talk,
but Didn't Believe 1t.

The Sheriff Had Heard the Wild Talk,
but Didn't Believe 1t.
The city and county officials seem to be
utterly paralyzed over the results of Fri
day nights work and the developments
Saturday night. Sheriff Boyd is very
towncast, and in speaking of the begin
ming of the trouble said that he had heard
wild rumors that mob intended to raid
the Jail, but regarded them as canards.
He had taken precautions and had or
dered the man placed in the strongest
cell. Had he expected an attack he would
have sworn in fifty deputies and had
them on duty. When the mob made its
appearance he addressed them from the
Jail window and requested them to quiet
y disperse, but the crowd only booted.
just Walked Away with Him.
He then left the window and started for
the front door of the Jail, with the inten-
ton of rallying his deputies and guards
to repel the mob. Just as soon as he
opened the door he was seized by the arms
and legs, overpowered, and hustled to the
high school grounds, where he was kept
until the man had been hanged. His
capture and detention were complete, as,
after reaching the quiet of the high school
grounds, the men placed him upon his
back and sat upon his arms and legs.
The sheriff pleaded for his liberty, but
was told to keep quiet at the peril of his
life.
Trampled and Dragged to Death.
Jailer Horrigan, in speaking of the case,
said that Coe the name of the man
lynched, instead of Smith. as enormously
stated in these dispatches) was alive when
pulled through the window and into the
open air, but before he was ten feet from
the Jail he was dead. Every spark of life had
left his carcass, as he was trampled upon
by hundreds of men, while others at the
end OF the rope pulled the body almost
limb from limb. When asked why he did
not telephone for assistance Horrigan re-
piled that he had no intimation of the
coming of the mob until the court yard
was filled with people. He then turned in
n police alarm and also attempted to call
up the police station by telephone, but all
the wires had been cut
All Except Two on Bail.
LATER.--It has been discovered that all
the prisoners have been released on bail
except two-Neushoeffer and Fitzgerald
who, being strangers, could not find
bondsmen. The people who had taken
part in the first lynching set out imme-
diately to release these two, but visit to
the Jail was fruitless, the men not being
there They had been removed from the
Jail and the majority of the mob dispersed
satisfied, but few anxious spirits.set out
TO locate the men. IL was at first believed
they were in the South Omaha Jail, but a
courier who visited that quarter returned
and reported this erroneous.
Then the information wns given that
they were In the guard house at Fort
omaha. .our miles out q town The
fragments Of the mob gathered and
marched out there, but the soldiery was
too much for it and no attack was made.
After night of searching the mob gave
up and yesterday morning the sheriff
took the men out OF the fort guard house
and returned with them to the Jail.

AS soon as it became known that they
were under arrest a crowd gathered at the
city lookup and demanded the release of
the prisoners. Instead of complying with
the request Chief Seavey loaded the seven
men into patrol wagon and rushed them
up to the county Jail. The crowd followed,
and by 1880 p. m. the Jail was surrounded
and word was sent to County Attorney
Mahoney that unless the men were re-
leased on bail they would be taken from
the Jail by force. Mahoney replied that
under no circumstances would the men
be released.

Identity of the Prisoners.

Neushoeffer is the man who led the as
sault on the steel cage. When he began
his assault on the cage he threw off his
coat and hat. When he looked for them
as he was leaving the Jail he found the po-
lice had seized them and taken letters
bearing his address from the pockets. The
prisoner came from Rising City, where he
owns a newspaper, in search of work.
He drifted into the crowd and led. He is
powerful young German. Bloom is
manager for S. p. Morse & Co., the larg-
est dry goods company in the city. and
O'Donoghue is captain of police.

NOT AS BAD AS WAS FEARED,
MIR. Barcky Thinks the Grapes Haven't
Been Hurt Much.

Iceen f1uFt Huucns
Tony Barcky, the fruit dealer, yesterday
received telegram from an Eastern agent
to the effect that the fruit crop in Delaware
and Maryland will be very heavy this year.
The foliage on the peach trees is very thick,
and protected the fruit from the frost. Mr..
Barcky says that when the crops are good in
these two States that supply of the best
fruit for this market is always assured.
CAS- for the grape outlook, " he continued,
sit is too early to make predictions. Last
year the grapes were fully formed. when
suddenly some disease struck them and they
dried up. 1ou are never sure of q grape until
you eat it. l don't think the frost the other
night hurt the grapes very much. / have
grapevine In my yard, and NOTICED this
morning that it was spry and full of life.
The local crop never amounts to much, any
how. We depend for our grapes or New
York and the districts along the lakes.
Within 20 miles of Cleveland any amount of
grapes are raised annually. The reports
from Ohio and New York so far are very
favorable, and nobody need be afraid OF a
scarcity of grapes"

THE BEAVER RIVER DRY.
The New Dam at Beaver Falls Stops All the
Mills Below.

BEAVER FAILS, May l9.-Last nigh. the
final opening of the new dam being con-
stIucted across the Beaver river at this
place was closed. To-day the pool is being
fIled but the result is there is no water in
the Beaver river from this place TO the
mouth of the river at Rochester. 1t will take
several days to fill the pool, and in the
meantime all the factories from here to
Rochester that depend upon the water as
the shutting of of the water Will not destroy
the water power, as there is ample supply in
the dams below here, also in the deep holes
in the river bed.
The pool made by the new dam will reach
from here to Rock Point, distance of seven
miles, and will be used for pleasure boats,
furnish water for the Union Water Com
pany, which will supply all the towns in the
Beaver Valley, and other purposes.
