FIXING THE. RLAMu.
The Inquest into the Recent Reading
Road Fatality Adjourned.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 2S-The inquest
into the accident on the Reading road
near Manayunk was opened by Coroner
Harry Long yesterday in the office of
the Ashland mills, at the west end Of the
Manayunk bridge. II. NJ. Brownbank,
the district attorney for Montgomery
county, conducted the case for the peo-
pie, and J. g. O'Brien, chief of the
Readings police force, took care of the
roads interest The Testimony of Ham
ilton, the passenger conductor, showed
that the crew of his train were in no way
responsible for the accident.
Billig. the engineer of the coal train,
followed Hamilton, looking almost as
pale as the white bandages that swathed
his head
81 came with my engine to the Falls"
he declared, land received my slip there
at s:35 o'clock. This slip instructed me
to make up my train at Pencoyd and
pick up some other cars at Campbell's
siding, about a mile north of there. The
slip gave me the right to run from West
Falls to Bridgeport, but had to lay off
as much as | could for trains coming
down. got my train at Pencoyd and
went ahead on signal from my con-
ductor."
The concluding questions of Billig's
examination were repeated when Ger
lacher, his conductor, succeeded him on
the stand Gerlacher's replies were repe-
titions of those of Billing. Questions by
the jury brought out the fact that engi-
neer and conductor were green mon.
The inquiry now entered upon the
ground of the orders governing the
movements of the two trains. It became
evident that the examination was mar
rowing to the question of individual re-
sponsibility, instead of trenching upon
the broad field of the safety or danger of
the single track system. The testimony
of Phillips, the Reading train dispatcher;
of Owen Ludwig, his assistant, and John
Rupp, lie West Falls yardmaster, occu-
pied no less than an hour, the major por-
tion of that period being devoted TO
rigid cross examination of Yardmaster
RuDp. At the conclusion of Rupp's ex-
animation the inquest was adjourned
until Wednesday next, when Superin-
tendents Bonzano and Whitcomb will be
examined.
Said juryman, when spoken to re-
garding the significance of their doter-
mination to question the general officers
of the road:
This means an examination into the
system of running cars over the Read
ings main line; the inquiry whether the
employment of "A single track for such
volume of business is safe, and whether
responsibility for the collision rests or

the company and its systemI'

diction, the alleged offense having been
committed when the guard was on active
duty, and it the private prosecutor had
any grievance he had tribunal to ap-
peal to. which was created by the Ma
tional Guard act of 1887, and establishing
court martial.
Exhaustive arguments were made on
this question by both sides. The defense
claimed the guard was on duty suppress
ing an insuITection, and in the punish
ment of mutiny, which they held Iams'
offense to be, the officers of the Tenth
regiment were justified in acting as they
did. If the punishment was irregular or
too severe, then, it was maintained, a
court martial and not civil court would
have been the proper tribunal to appeal
to.
The prosecution held that military
regulations gave the officers no right to
inflict punishment without court mar
tial SO ordered it. Attorney Watson at
tackled the legal existence Of the Ma
tional Guard, stating that the act Great
ing it was unconstitutional, because it
puts the guard under control of its Off
GERS, instead of under the government of
the state. The act he branded as weak,
vicious and revolutionary law, and the
men who framed it. if they knew what
they were doing, were guilty of treason.
He said if the court held it had no juris-
diction in the case it would be establish
ing a precedent not heretofore estab-
hshed by any court in the civilized world.
The defense, in reply, said court
martial was the proper tribunal and the
question narrowed down to this: Could
the court martial inflict a punishment
similar to that civil court is empowered
to do in such case?
Judge Porter said the impression of
the court is that court martial con-
vened in time of peace could only infiict
military punishment. 1t would not
have the power to punish as would civil
courts.
Attorney Watson raised the question
of the legal right of the National Guard
to be at Homestead to aid civil author
tiles i'll maintaining the peace. The
governor has the power to call upon the
National Guard to resist an invasion,
suppress riot or insurrection, but is not
given the power expressly to call them
ont to aid the civil authorities in main
tanning the peace, for which purpose
they were ordered to Homestead. In
stead of sending the National Guard,
Mr.. Watson said, the governor should
have sent the militia Another point
the prosecution will attempt to show is
that Private Iams was not legally en-
listed. He entered the Guard before he
was Is years of age, without the consent
of his parents, as is required by law.
Judge Potter instructed the attorneys
to have their pleas ready today, when
the court will pass upon the question Of
jurisdiction

passed, and crowds of employees. as well
as of other citizens, and again larger
crowds Of children, formed open ranks,
through which it speedily made its way
Newport, twenty-eight miles away,
also furnished n large crowd, which
gathered on the station platform. An
other large crowd was gathered ON tho
station platform at Lewistown junction.
The shades of night then settled down
upon the country and the occupants of
the train were unable to distinguish the
persons at the stations as the train
whizzed by. AT Huntingdon, however,
under the glare of the electric lights, it
was seen that the station platform was
well filled with people, and at Tyrone
the electric light revealed quite large
gathering.
The 1872 miles from Harrisburg to AL
toona were covered without a stop. and
the train brought up in the station here
exactly on time. After the necessary
change Of engine and crews the start was
made for the run over the last division
of the main stem of the Pennsylvania
railroad, the train leaving at o'clock.
At Altoona Mr.. and Mrs Ely Joined
the party and accompanied the presi-
dent as far as Cresson. They were
friends of Mrs. Harrison, and on several
occasions have been entertained at the
executive mansion in Washington while
she was the mistress. While at Altoona
Attorney General Miller received tele-
gram announcing the death of Dauphin
Hines, grandson of Judge Hines, former
law partner of Mr.. Miller and President
Harrison.
The train left Altoona with three en-
gines attached, which hauled it up the
grade of the Alleghonies and around
horse shoe curve with all the ease and
speed that a single engine had brought 1t
over the middle division The two extra
engines were dropped at Gallitzin, the
mountain summit, and thenceforwa>d
the run was made to Pittsburg nth u
single locomotive.
At Johnstown the station platform
was crowded with throng of people
gathered to gaze at the train as it passed,
and wherever the lights of station were
brilliant enough to enable the passengers
to make note of the fact it was oh
served that crowds of people proportioned
to the size of the place, had assembled to
greet the train as it passed. Greensburr
turned out at 10 o'clock crowd of sew
eral hundred people. Running into Pitts
burg thd various suburbs all contributed
large crows of spectators.
The train pulled into Union station
Pittsburg at 1910 o'clock, twenty min
utes late. A crowd of probably l,500 had
gathered upon the platform. A Gordon
of police kept the spectators ut dis
tance. At 1856 the sombre train, i'll
charge of Conductor Edward Purcell,
started west over the tracks Of the Pitts
burg, Cincinnati, Columbus. Chicago
and indianapolis railroad. The crowd
at the depot was most orderly, while
heads We're barred in respect as the train
pulled into and out OF the city.

INDIANAPOLIS SORROW.
The Body of Her Distinguished
Dead Brought Home.
TOKENS OF GRIEF EVERYWHERE.

The Cortege Passed Through n Don.
bic Line OF Grand Army Veterans
from the Depot TO the Church.
The Passage Through Pennsy Ivania
INDIANAroLIs, Oct. 2S.-Promptly at
o:80 this morning the train bearing Pres
ident Harrison and his beloved dead
reached this city. There was an i'm
mense crowd at the depot as the train
rolled in, but everything was quiet and
orderly. The presidential party was
quickly escorted TO carriages in waiting,
and then the casket containing the body
of the first lady in the land was rever-
sntially lifted from the car El Roy and
carried to tho hearse. Notwithstanding
the large crowd present there was an en-
tire absence of any pushing and undue
curiosity on the part Of any one. All
seemed to respect the presidents wish of
privacy.
. 1t was Mt first intended that detail of
ten men from the United States arsenal
should officiate as active pail bearers in
this city, but in obedience to telegram
received from Secretary Halford yester-
day, to the effect that the president was
desirous of avoiding all ostentation, the
order was countermanded and the body
was transferred to the hehrse by the un-
dertaker's assistants.
When the body had been placed in the
hearse the solemn cortege wended its
way slowly through the streets, Setween
double line Of Grand Army veterans,
to the number of 5000. to the First
Presbyterian church, where the services
are to be held. The church building is
extensively draped with emblems Of
mourning, and along the line of march
all business houses show the same trib-
uies of respect, some of the tokens of
mourning being very elaborate.
AS the funeral procession passed
through the streets, which were densely
packed with spectators, men stood with
uncovered heads, and in the eyes of
many women who viewed the cortege
there were traces of tears. After the
funeral party had entered the church
the crowds stood about and while await
ing the march to the cemetery, in sub
dued tones discussed the virtues of the
matron whom they all revercd.
From the Church to the Grave.
The s-rvices at the church, in accord :
unce with the presidents desire, were
very simple. When all had been seated
Cardinal Ncwman's hymn. Lead,
Kindly Light" was rendered by the
choir, and Rev. DIR. Hailes, Mrs. Har-
rison's pastor during the latter years of
her residence in this city, delivered a
Bhort invocation. A selection of Scrip
ture was then read, and the pastor made
brief address. The mourners were led
In prayer by Rev. DR.. Hyde, of the
Congregational church., and after the
rendition Of the hymn commencing
''One Sweetly Solemn Thought Dr.
Haines pronounced the benediction.
AT the grave a short passage of scrip
ture was read and a prayer was offered as
the casket was lowered into the vault.
This service occupied but a few moments,
and then the mourners returned to the
home of Mr., Mckee in this city.
