WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.-Secretary Rusk
will reach here tonight and Secretary Ell
kins will also arrive in time for Mrs. Har-
rison's funeral, so that all the members of
the cabinet will be present at the cere-
| monies. They will act as honorary pail
bearers at the services in this city. Vice
President Morton, who telegraphed during
the day asking the time when the funeral
would take place, and Chief Justice Fuller
may also be asked to serve as pail bearers.
The body bearers will be employees of the
White House.
The pail bearers who will oficiate at In
annapolis have been selected. They are
DR.. Il. R. Allen, John B. Elan, Hugh
Hanna, E. B. Msrtindsle, General Lew
Wallace of Charlottesville, Hon. William
E. Niblack of Vincennes, John R. Elder
and Theodore P. Haughey. All members
of the presidents family, with the excep-
ton of his three grandchildren, will &C.
company the remains of Mrs. Harrison to
Indianapolis. 1t was at first felt that
DR.. Scott's advanced age would prevent his
making the trip, but when the matter was
preached to him he announced emphatical-
ly that he proposed to 60. j. R. Mckee,
fha cd

to morrow and will also accompany the
president, as will also the members of the
cabinet and probably the ladies of their
families. 1t is also likely that Vice Presi-
dent Morton and family. Chief Justice Full
Ter aud few others will he specially invit-
ed to accompany the party. Mrs. Miller,
wife of the attorney general, and Mrs. Rusk
and other ladies of the families of the mem
bers of the cabinet called this morning and
spent some time with the family. A few
other intimate friends were also received.
Many members of the diplomatic corps,
whose frequent calls during the critical
period of Mrs. Harrison's illness made
them seem to take more of a friendly than
a purely official interest in the welfare of
the afflicted lady, fastened early to-day to
the White house and lett THAR cards.
Funeral services in Washington will be
held Thursday morning. 1t is the especial
wish of the family that the services shall
be as private possible. The funeral will
be personal and not public one.
The funeral services will undoubtedly be
held in the East room. This is the largest
room in the building, and, in fact, the
only one at all adapted to the holding of
services even as private as those which the
family desire.
They will be conducted according to the
Presbyterian forms by Rev. DR.. Tsunis S.
Hamlin, pastor of the Church of the Gov
enant, on Connecticut avenue, of which
the president and Mrs. Harrison have been
regular attendants. The body will not lie
in state.
After the services here the funeral party
will leave Washington Thursday at noon,
or soon thereafter, for indianapolis, where
services of a more public character will
| take place. It ia probable that the funeral
train will reach Indianapolis early Friday
morning, and at about 10 O'Clock the
church services will begin. They will take
| place in the First Presbyterian church of
| indianapolis.
The body will then be taken to Crown
Hill cemetery and inferred, after which
the president will return to Washington.
At the request of Mr.. De Strueve, min
lister from Russia, dinner which was to
be given in his honor tomorrow evening
bv sixty fellow members of the Metropoli-
tan club, has been indefinitely postponed
because of the death of Mrs. Harrison.
| The University club announces that in
| view of Mrs. Harrison's death the recep-
ton to Justice Shiras of the supreme court,
fixed for the 31st inst has been postponed
to some date next month.
Although the wife of the president is
held strictly to be private individual the
death of Mrs. Harrison will be made the
subject of good deal of the formal notice
that ordinarily accompanies the death of a
president In all foreign countries where
we have representatives the ministers of
of foreign affairs will at once call upon the
heads of our legations and express their
sovereigns' sympathy. In this city the

The supreme court, through the CHIEF
