MAYOR HARRISON LYING IN STATE
AT THE CITY HALL.
Immense Throngs Assemble to Do Honor to
His Memory and Citizens File Past the
Bier All Day Taking Farewell
Look at the Dead

CHICAGO, Oct. 3l.-The remains OF
Chicago's dead mayor were borne to
the city hall today there to lie in state.
Dense crowds thronged the streets and
side valks for blocks ar ound the Harri
son mansion on Ashland boulevard
and witnessed the start. In the main
it was not fashionable multitude, but
such g. one as the famous mayor liked
best to move among and speak with
Solemn stiffness was observed as eight
stalwart fire department captains
emerged bearing the coffin. Eight
captains of police followed, sharing
with the fire captains the honors of
pail bearers. The cortege was a
lengthy one. Following the carriages
containing the city officials and
mourners came a great throng, re-
solved to accompany the compare
lively small cortege proper to its des'
tination.
Simplicity was notable feature OF
the obsequies. The hearse was plain
black and bore no waving plumes nor
did heavy trappings adorn the black
steed which drew it. No strains OF
solemn music were heard as the pro-
cession passed slowly down Jackson
boulevard to the great gray stone
building where once Carter Harrison
was supreme.
The sweet strains OF Chopin's funer-
al march floated out upon the quiet
air from the instruments of 200 must
clans stationed on Che great steps Of
the LaSalle street entrance to the city
hall. In an instant the multitude
which filled the street as far as the
eve could reach became even more
quiet if possible than during the few
minutes preceding. Hardly sound
was heard save the rumbling of wa
gons on some distant side street. AS
ii by inspiration coming to all mem
bers of that vast concourse at the same
instant men lifted their hats and
stood with uncovered heads awaiting
the arrival CT the peoples dead. Men,
women and children were packed in
that vast multitude and all stood as
though carved from stone.
a moment later when the cas<et
was uncovered to the eyes of the peo-
pie sobl we've heard on every side.
White handk erchiefs flashed, almost
the only specks of color in the crowd
of somber clad mourners. A simple
wreath OF laurel lay close to the glass
through which hundreds of thousands
of people were soon to look at the face
of the dead executive. Just below it
was a pillow of roses, bright red bios
SONS sprinkled in among Others OF
milky whiteness. No other floral Of
ferings were there. and one instinc.
lively know these had come from
those who stood in the mayors life
closest and nearest To his heart.
As soon as the casket was borne in

l2ned, even thOugn the silver men
did not believe it. He said the Demo-
Gratis should assemble in caucus and
agree, but this plan had been refused.
The victory of the Northern Demo-
Gratis over Southern Democrats was
obtained under the leadership of the
senator from Ohio (Sherman). He
then offered an amendment providing
for the revival of the Bland-Allison
act.
Senator Voorhees, said that at this
late hour, however, as much as he
might approve any proposition he
would not feel at liberty to support it
in connection with this bill.
Senator Harris-If the senator from
Indiana should hereafter report any
ono of those propositions which he
can approve today his allies over
there on the other side will have gone.
You all admit this is pernicious
law Senator Voorhees, proceeded;
"even its distinguished author, with
manliness that does him honor, ad.
mits that the experiment has failed
which he had hoped might have sue
ceeded. Opportunity will be given for
freezer, fairer, more deliberate action
on the proposition embodied in the
amendments than we have in connec-
ton with this bill. The senator from
Ohio announced here today that lad

templated authorizing an issue of gov
eminent bonds. did for the reason

ance. believe the enactment of 1875
gives authority to the secretary of the
treasury to issue bonds, and the secre-
tary believes the same thing himself"
Senator Voorhees, said he hoped to
have vote by 2 o'clock Monday and
certainly not later than 4 on the bill,
1t is intended to hold a continuous
session on Monday until the vote is
had.
| Senator Barry's amendment was re-
jected by vote of 80 ayes and 81 nays.
Senator Aliens amendment for free
coinage of silver at ratio of 16 to ]
was rejected, 81 to Al.
Senator Blackburn's amendment

Senator Butler did not offer, as pro,

Senator Harris did not offer or ask 6
vote on his amendment.
Senator Pasco offered an amend

On Monday decides to adopt the reso-
luton offered yesterday by Mr..
Weadrock of Michigan, challenging
the title of Representative Linton of
the Eighth Michigan district to his
seat, congressional investigation of
the new political society known as the
American Protective association will
be the result. The American Protec.
tive association has figured in politics
for several years, and especially in
the states of Ohio, Michigan, Eastern
New York, Illinois and Wisconsin.

ton and has in Detroit

set the calculations of the pol
iticians. Its power has been
demonstl ated on more than one occa-
sion and it has become nightmare to
liticians in some of the states men,
toned. Mr.. Weadrock declines to
make a memorial which contains
charges against the American Pro.
tective association public until it has
been formally presented to the house
on Monday. Speaking of the organi-
cation, however, he said that it
changed the political situation in
DebrOlG lasG 1all.
SURPRISES IN THE SENATE.
The senate has taken another step
towards confirming it's reputation for
springing surprises by bringing in
the vote ON amendments to the
repeal bill at a time "hen
it looked as if debate might be in
definitely prolonged. A canvass of
the senate made last evening only an
hour before the vote was taken, indi-
Gated a possibility of continuing gen.
eral debate all the remainder of the
present week and the facts at the
time, with fully half dozen speeches
on the main question promised, and
with as many more apparently as
there would be no voting before Mon.
day. What happened to bring about
the change or whether anything out
of the ordinary really did happen will
probably never be known.
STEWARDS PREDICTION.
Senator Stewart made the predic-
ton in the course of his remarks
while the voting was in progress that
the president would never sign the
Voorhees, bill if it should be passed by
both houses of congress. When asked
afterwards upon what grounds he
based his belief he said it was be-
cause of the clause in the bill declar-
ing it to be the policy of the United
States to continue the use of gold and
silver as standard money. He says
the president will let the bill become
law without his signature and
fears he will keep congress
in session for that purpose
THE STANTON AFFAIR.
Secretary Herbert today gave out
the following statement and telegram
in regard to the Stanton-De Mello in.

be an impression that the president

miral Stanton without hearing from
him, it is fair to state that before the
order was issued Secretary Herbert
sent telegram of inquiry and had
received the following reply:

and placed on the catafaIque in the
center of the corridor the Clark street
entrance was thrown open and SEEM
iugly an endless line of silent awed
citizens began to file through the
building each to look for the last time
on the face of the dead. Seldom has
such a gorgeous floral display been
made in honor of any public man as
could be witnessed within the great
corridor where lay the catatalque, but
the perfulned and brilliant hued mag
nificance attracted scant attention.
All day long two lines of people pas
sed rapidly looking only at the black
| casket.
The funeral will take place at II
o'clock tomorrow from the, church OF
Epighany, Ashland boulevard and
Adams street. Sevlce according TO the
Episcopal ritual will be conducted by
Rev. II. N. Morrison, Jr. The process
sion will proceed from the church to
Graceland cemetery. The column Will
be large. Many societies, civic and
military have applied for places in
the line and been assigned positions.
Preudergast, the murderer of Mayor
Harrison, is having a rough time IN
Jail. The other prisoners have taken
to using every opportunity to jeer at
the wretch. All along he has labored
under the deluson that his compan-
ions in crime would look up to him as
a sort of king among them. But their
frightful denuncations dispelled today
at least this vagary from the mans
mind. and he seemed to understand
bitterly that he was abhorred even 10y
the hardened criminals as a cowardly
assassin.
