The Remains Of the Kate Mayof
Carter Harrison Taken From His
Residence to the City Hall-Thou-
sands of People View the Funeral
Procession.
CHICAGO, Dot. 81 Tho mortal remains
of ex-Mayor Carter 81. Harrison we're this
morning removed from his late residence
to the municipal building, in order that
the people of Chicago, as well as the scores
of Thousands of visitors in the city, might
be afforded last opportu nifty of gazing
upon the familiar features of the dead
mayor. Before the casket was removed
from the residence this morning brief
services, consisting of the reading of ap-
propriate collects and the Offering of a
prayer, were conducted by Rev. DR.. T. N.
Morrison of the Episcopal Church of the
Epiphany. Only the members of the
family and the heads of departments. who
had been selected as a guard of honor,
we're present.
When the brief services concluded the
casket was lifted by the guard of honor and
borne down the walk in the center of the
lawn 10 the hearse in waiting. The boule-
ward not only in front of the residence but
for block or more on either aide, was
packed with people and heads were rever-
entially barred as the solemn procession
passed through the gates.
The cortege moved slowly down the
boulevard to Jackson street and thence by
circuitous route to the LaSalle street en-
trance of the city hall. Fully 10000 peo-
pie had gathered round the municipal
building by the time the hearae arrived,
and it was with some difficulty that pas
sage was made through the dense crowd
The members of the city council were in
waiting at the western portico of the build
ing, and preceded the caeket up the steps
and into the corridor, while band of 200
musicians, representing the Chicago United
Music society, rendered Chopin's funeral
march and "Nearer My God to Thee"
The instrumental music gave way to a
vocal selection as the solemn procession
moved into the rotunda, and the low plain
tive strains of "Lead, Kindly Light" re-
As the escorting procession of aldermen
deployed to the right and left of the
catafalque the guard of honor again lifted
the oasket and placed it upon the bier.
Then the gates were thrown open and
the people fled in to look upon the face of
the dead. All day long the people passed
by the casket. Outside thousands were
pressing upon the heels of those who
had gone before them. During the TWEEN
ty-four hours the body rests there
over 100, 1000 people will look upon 1t. As
the day progressed the crowd increased
and at the Clark street entrance the mass
was solid one. The list of persons who
looked upon the remains includes nearly
every leading official in the city and many
prominent persons.
In obedience to the expressed wish of
the family callers were few to-day at the
Harrison residence. Messages of con-
dolence continue to come by hundreds
from all over the country and once in q
while cablegrams are received.
