WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.-Very cold and
dreary appeared the white facade of the
Presidents home in the chill frosty air
of the gray and misty autumn morning.
The watchman paced his beats at the
gates, the grounds were deserted and the
only sound that was made was by the
rustling of the sere and yellow leaves
which dropped from the stately elms and
oaks at every light puff of air upon the
green sward already so thickly carpeted.
Mrs. Harrison had died with the leaves
and the flowers she loved so well, and
her lie had ebbed away at that awe
inspiring hour of night which precedes
the first flush of dawn, when the blood
runs slowly and nature itself seems to
be almost suspended in its functions.
The news of her death gave rise TO uni
versal expressions of sympathy, but
caused no surprise, as everyone in Wash
iugton had been fully prepared for it.
There We're signs of mourning about the
city at ali early hour. in the flags which
dropped at half-mast on the public build
ings and on the hotels and private
houses. But, because Of the non-ofiicial
position of the Presidents wife, these
demonstrations of sympathy We're purely
voluntary, and the wheels OF the clty'S
life revolved as much as usual. People
going to work glanced at the headlines
in the morning papers, exchanged a few
sylnDathe:ic words and went on their
way with sober faces, and the routine of
the day proceeded.

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 25.-A general
strike of warehousemen, packers and
drivers has been inaugurated in all the

contention on the part of the unions is
ployed. The roustabouts. freight-hand-
