THOUSANDS IN THE C0RTEGE
FUNERAL OF CLEVELIND RIOTER
IN IMPOSING SPECTACLE.

10, 900 Men in Line-More Than 100000
People Witness the Demonstration
Monsignor Thorpe Tells the Strikers
That They Must Not Resort to Violence
--Kedress for Wrongs to be Found In the
Law.
Cleveland, July 5.--The funeral of
William Rettger, the striker killed at
the Brown Hosting works, was the
most imposing funeral pageant ever
given q laboring man here. In Cleve-
land there has been but one occasion
when there was larger procession and
greater crowds-the funeral of Garfield.
To-day, by actual count. 10000 men
formed the funeral cortege. The fun
eral services were held in the Church
of the Immaculate Conception. A con-
servative estimate places the number
of spectators about the church and
along the line of march to the cemetery
at 100000. The procession moved quiet
ly, and save for the dirges played by
the many bands no sound save the
tread of feet broke the quiet. The
white casket in which reposed the re-
mains was literally buried in flowers,
Monsignor Thorpe, who, 1t is thought,
will be made bishop of Buffalo dio-
cese, delivered the sermon. He said:
THE lesson we must learn to-day is
that in society there are two classes,
capitalist and wage Garner. Next to
capital there is the strong right arm OF
labor. One cannot exist with the other.
The capitalist has rights under the laws.
He makes hazardous risks and has the
right to do as he chooses. He may
abuse that right and forget God in his
enjoyment of his riches. If he does
there is a remedy, but it does not lie in
passion or violence. I speak to you as
brothers
THE remedy is public sentiment and
the law. There is another class. not
banded together as you are. They have
their individual rights. and those who
administer the law must protect them
Scenes have been enacted during the
past week which should never have oc-
Cured These men who have become
victims Of your hate have rights under
| the law
He continued at some length to score
the strikers for the scenes of violence.
| After the funeral the sermon was
roundly denounced by many. The
| troops are still under arms,

CONNECTICUT MEN fighting.
Will Try to Get a Gold Platform as LONG
as There is Chance.

Chicago, July 4.-Ex- Congressman
Carlos French Of Connecticut, the DEM
socratic national committeeman from
that state, and ex-Judge Lynde Hafxi-
son, one Of its delegates at large, are
here, and are laboring earnestly Ii the
interest Of the gold standard Connecti-
cuts platform is Of the soundest gold
character, and the states delegation
will vote as a unit for gold from the
beginning Of the fight to the end.
The other members Of the Connecti-
cut delegation will leave New York
city tonight, and will arrive here to-
morrow night. Their headquarters will
be at the Palmer house, where Messrs.
French and Harrison are already locat-
ed In an interview with the New
York Times correspondent to-day,
ex-Judge Harrison said:
THE silvermen here seem to me to be
divided into three classes-first, those
who are socialists and populists, rather
than democrats, and who are fanaticaI
in their views about the, 16 to doc
trine; second, those men who are hon
est bimetallists, and who believe, from
such study as they have given to the
subject, that the United States Is Big
enough and strong enough to go 1T
alone; third, those men who do not
themselves believe in the free coinage
Of silver, but who represent constitu-
encies where the free silver craze is
temporarily in the majority. The prob
ability is that these three classes make
UP a decided majority in the conven-
tion, and will force a free coinage dec
laration in the platform.
Missionary work, however, is going
on, and the sound money people are
making an earnest effort to prevent
such declaration. 1t Is barely possi-
BILE that this may succeed. From pres
ent appearances there will be no diff
Guilty in agreeing on the other princi-
pies to be adopted in the platform" /"
What do you think will happen in
the east If the 16 to / platform is
adopted?'
II think the sound money men will
not cross that bridge until they come
to it."

Confession Evoked by Germany's Desire
to Increase Her Navy.
Berlin, July 5.-The emperor's speech
on the occasion of the launch of the
new battleship Kaiser Friedrich III at
Wilhelmshavn last week has met with
an echo Of hearty approval throughout
the empire which foreshadows popular
assent to a large increase of the Ger
man navy, one Of the chief of the Kali
sers desires The Tagblatt expresses
the belief that the Reichstag will GER
tainly vote to grant the requisite
amount Of money to create a powerful
navy. The Hamburger Nachrichten,
Prince Bismarck's organ, compares the
naval strength Of Germany with that
OF England and comedies the hopeless
ness of SO enlarging the German navy
as to- enable it to successfully support
an attempt to invade England.
The Nachrichten's article concludes
by saying: Although we cannot con-
test Englands s supremacy upon the sea,
a strong German navy would assist
other means in paralyZing the exten-
sion Of English power in the world. ;"

millionaire John T.. Searles, Jr., Formerly
of New Haven, Attacked by Appendicitis
AT Brooklyn Hospital.
New York, July 5-John e. Searles,
jr., the millionaire secretary of the
American Sugar Refining company
who was attacked by appendicitis on
Thursday morning while visiting a
friend at Shelter Island, yesterday un-
derwent an operation in the Seney hos
pital in Brooklyn. Mr.. Searles had in
tended sailing for Buzzard's Bay,
where his fathers summer home is.
His illness put the trip out of the ques-
tion, and on the advice of DR.. George
Ryerson Fowler and DR.. Russell Fow-
Ter he was removed as rapidly as pos
sible to the Seney hospital Of which he
is a trustee.
The doctors, after consultation, de-
cided that the knife would have to be
used if the patients life was to be saw
ed. The operation was performed by
DR.. Fowler, who is regarded as one of
the cleverest surgeons in the country.
Mr.. Searles, without any hesitation,
submitted to it, and the result was In
every way satisfactory
Yesterday afternoon the doctors said
Mr.. Searles had begun to rally as soon
as he left the operating table. They
considered his condition much improv-
ed and thought his chance of complete
recovery was the best possible under
the circumstances.

VIII NoT COME EAST.
Major Mckinley VIII Remain at His Ohio
Home All Summer.

Canton, o., July notwithstanding
the fact that Major Mckinley has de-
cided to remain at home this summer,
he received letters to-day from towas
between Canton and Boston asking him
on what day and at what hour he ex-
pected to pass through them on his
way to Roxbury, where it has been ru-
mored he would spend a fortnight with
his cousin, General Osborne. Similar
letters have been coming for several
days, and they will continue to come
until 1t is plainly understood that Ma
jor Mckinley does not expect to leave
Canton for an outing this year. Had
he gone to Roxbury, as he once thought
of doing, his journey would have been
a series of ovations and his holiday trip
would have been changed to continu-
GUS and perhaps burdensome speech
making and Misunderstanding tour.
Major MCKINLEY said to-day that he
felt no need of rest and that he thought
he could discharge his duties incident
to the campaign to better advantage
here than elsewhere. He has his books
and his papers here, and well trained
clerical staff as we'll He is surround
ed by friends who are at his command
whenever their services are needed and
who render him efficient aid in many

FIRE ON GRAND AvENUE.
Premature Explosion of Fireworlss-Loss
About $500

The late pedestrians in the vicinity
of S67 Grand avenue were treated to a
magnificent display of fire works this
morning about 1 o'clock. The store in
which it occurred is run by Samuel
Zachs. who lives at 13S Olive street,
Several families live in the rear of the
store, and when the explosions took
place there was some lively scamper-
ing for place of safety. The chemical
engine responded to the alarm, and
soon had the fire under control Zachs,
who had been notified of the blaze, was
soon upon the scene.
/ He was so much affected by his loss,
which he said was total, that he could
give no theory as to how the fire hap
pened, except that lighted cigar may
have been dropped by one of three or
four young men who were in his store
eating ice cream about an hour before
the explosions took place. This was
all that could be obtained from the man
who was in sobs and was led home by
his friends. The loss will amount to
about $500, and is said to be total.

THEY WERE INDIGNANT.
Local Police Make an Important Capture
of Thieves.


Two well dressed young men, who are
recorded on the blotter at the police
station as John p. Cosgrove, aged
80, and John Sweeney, aged 20. from
Philadelphia, were arrested at the
Union depot last evening at Z o'clock
and locked up in the central police sta
tion. Whe- arrested, the young men
were much astonished at such proceed
ings ON the part of Detective Poronto
and Patrolman Cooper and insisted on
getting away from them. Both men
started toward the door of the depot
and moved at rapid pace, followed by
the officers up State street. The fugi-
tives were overhauled before they had
gone half a. block.
Their indignation knew no bounds
and the officers were roundly abused by
them for molesting two people who
were not at fault but were en- route out
of the city.
The men were taken to the central
police station, where they were detain-
ed without bail, and will be arraigned
this morning In the city court The ar
rest was made on the suspicion that
these men were concerned in the rob-
berries which took place at Yale Field
on May 16, the date of the first game
between the Yale and Princeton base
ball teams
The stealing was from the students
and many others who made a rush for
the wagon which was dispensing a tenn
perance drink.
Several complaints were made soon
after the occurrence to the police au-
thorities Of the loss of watches and
scarfpins, etc.
1t is thought that the men who have
been seen around town during the
Fourth Of July festivities have been
plying their operations yesterday. 1t
was stated they were seen in Heu-
bleins cafe on Saturday evening.
When arrested Cosgrove and Sweeney
claimed to be bound for New York.
The police are Of the opinion that
there will be enough evidence in court
to-day to hold the men.

The Fanatic Dery,shrs.

The dervishes have lost nothing OF
their old valor They heed death as
little as ever. l saw them stand audis-
mayed in the open and fight with dog
ged determination In the face of our
deadly volley fire; they fought on with
rifle and spear and knife when charged
by the cavalry; each wounded dervish,
as he lay bleeding to death on the
ground, was a dangerous and treacher-
Gus foe until he had breathed his last
they even did what some authorities
have denied that any troops, however
brave, would ever do-they stood in
groups firing steadily into our ranks
while our Maxim guns poured their
streams of bullets on them, moving
them down like grass.
! doubt whether any other men in
the world would have stood, as these
men stood, for nearly two hours
against such fearful odds as were op-
posed to them. But, II one may Judge
from this fight, the dervishes have
changed their old tactics; they have
to a great extent abandoned the reck-
less rush OF spearmen Mhich used to
distinguish Soudanese warfare, and re-
ly more on rifle fire, In which their
practice has considerably improved. II

doubtful whether that savage beast OF
