 All the Ministers of foreign powers 1T this city will call personally on the Sec retary of State to express condolence, and will subsequently, file in writing with him in permanent form the testimonials of their regret. The foreign secretaries of friendly powers will in like manner convey their sympathies to our Ministers and representatives abroad.
 The Vice President and Mrs. Morton and the members of the Cabinet and their wives being the official family oi the President will, it is understood, go in mourning and will therefore withdraw
 
 one month.
 Following the precedent established in the case of the death of Mrs. Tyler, the Executive Departments in Washing ton will probably be closed on the day of the funeral ceremonies bere
 President Harrison's brother, John Scott Harrison of Kansas City, will reach Washington tomorrow morning and ac- company the train to Indianapolis after the services here.
 MT. Carter B. Harrison of Tennessee, another brother, will join the party at Indianapolis.
 ce-President Morton will be present at the services in this city.
 Over all the government offices and over the hotels and many of the business buildings the flags are at half mast.
 Two policemen guard the entrance to the grounds to prevent invasion by the curious, but there has been no necessity for their services.
 There will be private services in the Blue room of the White House o-morrow morning, conducted by Dr. Hamlin, and services at Indianapolis in the First Presbyterian Church, of which the Presi- dent and Mrs. Harrison were for many years active members, on Friday
 These will be in charge of Rev. Mat thew l.. Haines, D. D., who was pastor
 
 Washington.
 At the request of Dr. Hamlin, Rev. Dr. Bartlett of the New York Avenue Presby- terian Church. will assist in the services at the White House tomorrow morning Dr. Bartlett was pastor of the Second Presbyterian Church, Indianapolis, pre- vious to coming to Washington, and neighbor of the Presidents family.
 At the funeral of the wife and daughter of atOr iV0 ha Mrs. Harrison was much impressed by the singing of Cardinal Newman's hymn, Lead, Kindly Light" by the choir of St. Johns Church, and often spoke of it. The choir will be present at the services and repeat the hymn.
 Arrangements for the funeral train are being perfected by MT. George w. Boyd, assistant general passenger agent of the Pennsylvania road, acting under the di- rection of Mir. Frank Thompson, first vice president. The train will consist of six vestibuled Pullman cars-a composite baggage and saloon car, dining car a sleeping car, a compartment car & pri- vate car, and an observation car, in the latter of which the casket will be carried | to Indianapolis,
 The train will leave Washington at | Il 80 a. m. tomorrow, and run on the following schedules: Leave Harrisburg
 
 Pittsburg (central time) 9:20 p. m., leave l Columbus 3:45 a m., arrive at Indianap- l o.is 9:30 a. m.
 From the station in the Presidents | home city, which his beloved wife last | saw amid scenes of patriotic enthusiasm and friendly welcome when the chief exe- | cutive and his party were returning from the famous tour through the South and | West, the funeral cortege will proceed l V Aala fa ho Presbyterian Church, corner of New York l and Pennsylvania streets. Here Rev. NJ. L. Haines, the Presidents l pastor, will conduct simple services, at l tendance on which will probably be re- | stricted to relatives and intimate friends Leaving the church the funeral process | sion will wind it's way to the beautiful cemetery of Crown Hill, where rests the | remains of Governor Oliver F. Morton | Vice President Thomas A. Hendricks, ex- | Senator Joseph k. Mcdonald, General E. | k. S. Canhy and Governor Whitcomb
 In this beautiful spot, overlooking the l city where President Harrison ranks as a private citizen, the body will be inferred with brief and simple ceremony.
 The exact resting place is being >se- lected by friends of the family in Indian apolis.
 It is not the desire of the Executive family to remain in Indianapolis for rest after the fatigue of the journey from Washington. The arrangements for the funeral contemplate an immediate return on their part to the railroad station, the special train to leave for Washington within a short time thereafter.
 From the hour when the White House was closed following the death of Mrs. Harrison quiet had reigned until the usual time for opening the mansion. President Harrison retired and ob. tained some rest; when he reappeared in the morning, he bore himself with the calmness and fortitude that comes from dependence upon a higher power and a resignation to the mandates of His will.
 He was, of course, suffering greatly from the blow that had fallen, no less severe because long delayed and long ex pected, but his morning greeting was as much like the usual one as could have been expected.
