BURIAL OF WALT WHITMAN.
Five Thousand People Attend the Serv.
ices-IngersoII's Address.

1ces-ingersoll's Address.
CAMDEN, \. J., March 9l-The remains
of Walt Whitman, the poet, were inferred
yesterday afte rnoon in his tomb at Har-
leigh cemetery, after funeral services that
were broad enough to include pretty
much everything in belief or unbe-
lief, from selection from the
New Testament giving the words of the
Savior concerning death, and others from
Esther in the Old Testament and from
Plato, to brilliant address from the
champion of negation-Robert j. Ingersoll
According to the request of Whitman him
self, there was no clergyman present.
Programme of the Services.
There were 5000 persons at the Gene
terry, where tent had been erected which
would not hold a fifth of them. The
services opened with Whitman's death
Carol" There was an address on Whit
mans life by rhos B. Harmed. The next
thing was extracts from the writings of
Confucius, Buidha, the Koran ana Isaiah.
Then followed selections from the New
Testament and Plato, and then the ad.
dress by Colonel Ingersoll Among the
floral gifts was laurel wreath "In the
name of Sir Edwin Arnold"
Stedman' 5 Poetical Farewell.
Edmund Clarence Stedman sent
wreath of ivy with the following lines:
Goodbye, Walt.
Goodbye from . II you loved on earth,
Rock, tree. dumb creature. man and woman
To you, their comrade human.
The last assault,
Ends now; and now, in some great world has
birth,
A minstrel, whose strong soul has broader
wings,
More brave imaginings.

Col. IugersoII's Address.
Colonel Ingersoll said: again, we, in
the mystery of life, are brought face to
face with the mystery of death. A great
mana great American-the most eminent
citizen of this republics dead before us"
He then said that Whitman was so great
that he rose above the greatest without
arrogance. His sympathies were for all.
Even on the brow of crime he placed the
kiss of sympathy and said "Not until the
sun excludes you do exclude you," which,
the speaker said, was one of the greatest
lines in literature. He was the poet of di-
vine democracy, of life, of love, of the
natural, and OF the human race every
where. He was also the poet of death.
whitman not an Agnostic.
In Mr.. Harned's address he said of Mr.
Whiman's religious belief: II deem it
my duty to mention two important facts
-one, his positive belief in Immortality
and the other MS fearlessness of death
With him Immortality was not hope, or
a beautiful dream. He believed that he
lived in an eternal universe, and that man
was as indestructible as his creator"

Foreigners Asking for Guarantees of
Safety-Police Hard at Work
PARIS, March 31.-The anarchist excite.
ment is greater than ever. Foreigners liv-
ing in the st. German quarter have sent
delegation to the district mayor asking
whether he could guarantee their safety.
This official assured them that the most
energetic measures were being taken, and
that foreigners residing in Paris had moth
ing to fear. Some foreigners, however, do
not quite see how his assurances of COM
plete security can be correct, because none
of the authors of the present or previous
dynamite outrages has been arrested, and
there is nothing to guarantee them
against being in house where reckless
anarchists may be staying.
Giving Out Search Warrants.
The entire force of the Paris police is
now alert and actively engaged in ferreting
out the origin of the dynamite outrages.

What One Bomb Could Do.
Special watch is kept over the Palais de

ures and statues destined to figure in the
coming salon. 1t is feared that an at
tempt may be made there during the draw
ing of the CONSUMPTION. Nothing would,
indeed, be easier than for an anarchist to
mix in the crowd of young men and throw
bomb which, considering the large guam
tity of inf1ammable material in the Palais
de I'Industrie, might result in the COM
plete destruction of the building and its
valuable contents.

WATCHING THE REDS AT LONDON.
Talk of Refusing Anarchists Asylum In
Great Britain.


Great Britain.
. LONDON, March 3l-The Scotland Yard
authorities received word from Paris yes
terday that forty anarchists expelled from
France yesterday on account of the recent
dynamite outrages in the French capital
were nearly all making for England. The
dispatches gave the name of the suspects,
with their descriptions and told what
trains they had taken. Some had started
by way of Belgium, others by way of
Dieppe, Others by way of Havre and 9th.
ers by way of the Channel islands Chief
Anderson, of the criminal investigation
department, hurried to the home office
and consulted with Secretary Matthews
and other high functionaries as to the best
method of dealing with this invasion of
dangerous characters.
Will Shadow Them from the Start.
Upon returning to Scotland Yard he con-
fered with his assistants, and perfected ar
rangements to have all the ports at which
the anarchist travellers were likely to land
watched by detectives, who will shadow
the unwelcome immigrants from the time
they set foot upon English soil until they
reach London and take up permanent quar-
tiers. The government has determined
upon system of registration for sus-
picious foreign residents of London, Sc
that the police can keep close watch on
such people. 1t is the intention to arrest
every person known to belong to the an
archist following at the very first explosion
or other outrage in London.
Anarchists Better Look Out.
No doubt is entertained that some such
outrage will be committed, though it is
strange that the enemies of the existing
order should by this means imperil their
only refuge in Europe, except Switzerland
Even Switzerland is debating the question
OF restricting the privileges she has always
heretofore granted in the matter of domi.
cile to foreign political criminals Of every
class. There is strong feeling among the
English Conservatives, which is also
shared by a number of Liberals, in favor
OF excluding the anarchists from this coun-
try, though to do so would break up LONG
standing tradition of liberation.
Chicago Isn't Very Safe.
1t is learned that already great precaU.
tions are being exercised in the guarding
of all public buildings against any at
tempt at wrecking. Home Secretary Mat
thews recently conferred with the law off
GERS Of the crown as to the propriety Of
prosecuting certain inflammatory week y
papers, chiefly foreign organs, printed il
London and circulated mainly on the con
tinent. 1t is understood that steps will
be taken to begin legal proceedings. The
London police state that the anarchists dc
not regard New York as a safe place of res
idence for them nowadays. They are not
likely to take up their quarters in Amer
lea unless the British government decides
to refuse them a refuge in London II
eriven out of England they will probably
go to Chicago.

the man who, at O'Clock yesterday morn
ing. hacked his wife and two daughters in
horrible manner, was taken from the
county Jail here at 1880 this morning by a
mob of nearly 1000 determined men and
hanged. The mob broke in the windows
of the Jail but were unable to reach
Lyttle's cell by that route, and finally the
doors were battered down with oil well
drills and Lyttle was seized. He was taken
to the bridge about two squares distant
and strung up to an iron crosspiece of the

just as he was being pulled up shot
from a revolver rang out on the night air,
and the rope was shot in two, dropping
the victim TO the ground. He was then
hurriedly taken to the nearest telegraph
pole, where the lynching was completed,
Lyttle dying without struggle. 1t was
the intention of the authorities to silently
convey lyttle to a suburb in a carriage at
O'Clock this morning, and from there
take train for Lima for safe keeping, but
were frustrated by the determined efforts
of the lynchers.
Lyttle Expected the Lynchers.
Lyttle evidently anticipated death, for
he left note asking that his body be
turned over to his brother with the re-
quest that he be buried beside his mother.
AS the mob entered the Jail Lyttle called
their attention to the cell he was occupy
ing as the one they were looking for 1t
took thirty minutes to batter down the
cell door, when the doomed man was
dragged out and thence to the Main street
bridge. After the first attempt was made
to hang Lyttle he was dragged by the neck
through the street to the fatal telegraph
pole.
Always the "Best Citizens"
Shots from two score revolvers were fired
into the lifeless body. The mob is said to
have been composed of the best citizens,

leader. The body is still hanging await

BRUTAL CRIME OF THE VICTIM.
With a Hatchet He Butchers His Wife
and Daughters.

and Daughters.
The crime for which Lyttle was lynched
was most brutal one. Lyttle is an old
soldier whose wife obtained divorce from
him some time ago on the ground of cru.
city. He went to the Soldiers home at
Dayton, but returned Sunday night and
tried to get his wife to live with him
again, and she permitted him to stay at
the house few days His hrown daugh-
tiers were bitterly opposed to this move,
and this Lyttle resented and threatened to
kill the girls if his plans were interfered
with.
An Account of the Slaugh liter.
Tuesday night, after a wrangle of this
character the old man went upstairs to
bed, but got up about o'clock yesterday
morning, and going to the kitchen got a
Ratchet and attacked his daughter Della
as she came into the room, splitting her
skull and mutilating her head horribly.
The eldest daughter, Emma came to her
sisters rescue, and met the same fate, be-
ing frightfully injured, but is vet alive.
The mother, hearing the affray, came into
the room. Lyttle began cutting her head
with his Ratchet, inflicting six CHASTITY
wounds, which will prove fatal, although
the woman is yet alive.
His Life Long Story of Crime.
Lyttle has served one term in the peni-
Tertiary for inhumanly treating a child.
His whole life has been one long story of
cruelty to his family and all with whom
he came in contact. Mrs. Lyttle and her
youngest daughter cannot possibly live,
but Emma, the eldest daughter, will pos
sibly survive her fatal injuries. Lyttle
confessed that he came home from the
Soldiers home on purpose to kill his
