the platform. The ex-chancellor walked
firmly to his carriage and was driven to
Friedricheruhe. The route to the castle
was lined with people and in front stood
men holding flaming torches. From all
sides the prince was greeted with most
,heartfelt enthusiasm, mingled with deep
reverence. Prince Bismaxck could not
quite prevail on the Germans to subdue
their evidence of love and generation for
Germany's great statesman, and thus
the prince received several ovatione,
while on the train. The prince bowed
constantly to his admirers, many OF
whom pressed forward and kissed the

DUBLIN, Oct. S.-Ireland and Irishmen
from all over the world today assem- bled
around the grave OF Charles Stewart
Parnell in Glasnevin cemetery and did
honor and reverence to the memory Of
the great Irish leader. It was the Sec
ond anniversary OF his death, and the
crowds attending the days ceremonies
showed that Ireland has not forgotten
the services of Parnell. The procession
OF mourners through the streets of Dub
lin far exceeded in number and in rev.
erence last years upon the same oc-
casion.
The procession was headed by black
draped wagon upon which were piled
memorial wreaths ssnt from different
parts of the country, as we'll as several
from the United States, Canada and
from Australia. The officials of the COR
porations cities of Dublin and Cork at
tended the ceremonies in state. The
streets along the route to the cemetery
were packed with people. and the
neighborhood OF Glasnevin was crowded.
John Parneil, brother OF the late Charles
Stewart Parnell. and Mrs. Dickinson,
his sister, appeared in carriage at the
cemetery. The wreaths were placed
upon the grave OF the beloved Irish
statesman. The procession then re-
formed and returned to the city
1t was the intention of the committee
to make the demonstration az far as
possible indicative of the strength of
the Parnellite cause. With this object
in view fast excursion trains were run
to Dublin from all parts OF Ireland.
Many thousands availed themselves Of
these trains, and tho denomination was
much more successful than last year.
One great departure from the pro-
gramme OF last year was the
absence of public speaking in
connection with the commemoration.
The procession was headed BY coutin-
gent Of sthe principal Parnelhtes. All
the trades, friendly societies and many
other bodies IN tho city. also walked in
the proceaeion. The instruments of the
different bands were draped in black,
and the music was of q dirgeful and
funereal character.
NEw YoRK, Oct. 8. The central coun-
Gil of the Irish Independent party, with
their friends and brethren, assembled
tonight in the Grand opera houee hall
to celebrate the memory of Charles
Stewart Parnell. The hall was decor
ated with patriotic ennblems, while the
picture OF the great Irish leader was
draped with crepe. A glowing eulogy
on the dead Statesman was delivered by
James Clancy. The meeting was q
stirring one, in which Irish traitors
were hissed as loudly AZ Irish patriots
were cbeered.

were attracted by the screams. This
