 WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.-A few minutes after 10 o'clock this morning, in the presence of the President and his family, the Vice President, the Cabinet officers and the members of their families, the brief funeral services over the remains of Mrs. Harrison commenced.
 The casket, which was strewn with flowers, of which Mrs. Harrison was ex- ceedingly fond, was removed to the East room, where the exercises were held, last evening.
 Rev. Dr. Hamlin opened with the reel tstion of few selections from the Script ures adapted to the occasion, closing with a short invocation. Rev. Dr. Bartlett then read the Scripture lesson, following which the boy choir of St. Johns Episco- pal Church, recessed in the adjoining parlor, sang 'I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say Come Unto Me and Rest"
 Dr. Hamlin offered the closing prayer, and as those present left the room, the choir rendered Cardinal Newman's hymn, Lead, Kindly Light"
 The body bearers were chosen from the watchmen and messengers of the White House. They were Messrs. Loeffler, Turner, Bubois, Kenny, Brickner, liar rie, Lewis and Hollinberger.
 Vice President Morton and the mem- bers of the Cabinet present were honorary bearers. The funeral cortege proceeded to the Pennsylvania Railroad station, and shortly before noon the start was made for Indianapolis.
 All the members of the Presidents family, with the exception of his three grandchildren, accompany the remains of Mrs. Harrison. This, of course, in- cludes Dr. Scott the venerable father of Mrs Harrison.
 It was at first thought that his ad- vanced age would prevent his making the trip, but when the matter was preached to him he emphatically declared that he proposed to go, and would not listen to a proposition to the contrary.
 J. H. Mckee, the Presidents son-in- law, is also with the party.

 They will take place in the First Pres byterian Church on the corner of New York and Pennsylvania streets. Rev. Dr. N. L. Haines, pastor of that church, will officiate.
