TWO sATcHELs MISSING.
Hotel Guests Tell Police Tint They
Have Been Robbed.

Two robberies at downtown hotels were
reported last night to the police. One
was brought to the attention of the de-
tectives by Andrew Moreland. cashier of
the Atlantic National Bank. of Whining
ton, Del, and the other by Joseph How
ard, a guest of the Regent Hotel.
II appears that Mr.. Moreland. now reg
istered at a hotel on the Avenue, has
lost a valuable dress suit case by the
manipulations of a thief. The room of
the bank cashier was entered. according
to his own statement, some time yester-
day, and his suit case containing much
handsome clothing. diamond scarf pin,
and other small jewelry, was stolen. Bell
boys, walters, mesSen nSerS, and others
about the hotel seem to know nothing of
the robbery, and last night Detectives
Hartigan, Horne, and Boyd We're assign
ed to investigate. So far no trace of the
suit case has come 20 light, and mystery
appears to surround the theft.
Room 81 at the Regent is occupied Just
now by Mr.. Howard, whose satchel, cash,
and clothing have disappeared altogether.
A thief is thought to have entered the
room of Mr.. Howard some time yester-
day, while the guest was absent and to
have taken possession of a pocketbook.
containing S32. coat, an umbrella, and
other things. All this property was with
in the satchel in question, which was
forced open by the thief. Detectives Par
ham and Weldon have this case in hand
for investigation.

PENALTIES FOR ANARCHIST.
Nebraska Democrats and Populists
Demand Prompt Action.

LINCOLN, Neb., Sept. 1.-THE Demo-
cratic and Populist State conventions
were he'd here today. The principal bone
of contention was whether the Democrats
or Populists should have the supreme
judge, and after this was conceded by
general consent to the Democrats, in ex-
change for the Governor next fall, the
Populists insisted upon having hand in
naming the man.
The Populists organized by electing E.
L. Thomas, of Douglas. chairman. Sem
ator Allen headed a committee to which
was delegated the preparation of resolu-
tions upon the death of the President.
The following was adopted by a. rising
vote:
I'VE denounce the assassination of the
President as a detestable crime. The
shot was aimed not alone at William Nc
Kinley, but at the Government of the
United States. We demand the prompt
punishment of the assassin and the pas
sage by Congress of law defining an
archy and providing adequate penalties
therefor"
Fusion was vehemently opposed in the
Populist convention, but unsuccessfully.
Allen Root. of Douglas. where the Demo-
Gratis had refused fusion on the county
ticket made a speech in which he said

some hope of disintegrating the crowd.
They might as well have tried to disin-
tegrate a stone wall. The crowd sursed
in around them and absorbed them as a
part of Itself. The trsmpling of the
horses only added a new terror to the sit
uation. One policeman, horse and ALL
was thrown to the ground. while several
others were so badly hurt that they were
ordered home for treatment
A little girl who bore deep cash across
her forehead was grabbed by n big po-
liceman and held above the crowd as he
ondeavored to force his way to a place of
safety. With the blood mingling with her
tears she held resolutely to a rag doll
which she carried in her arms. Other
men were not so fortunate in helping
their charges and one of them who at
tempted to emulate the action of the off,
Ger was himself overcome in the crush.
He was rescued after he had tainted by
squad of policemen and carried away
in patrol wagon. which by this time
had forced its way through the crowd to

AS the crowd was pushed back from the
steps it revealed a mass of clothing, UNI

torn from those who had been fighting
for their very existence. Those who re-

either carried to some of the city hospitals
or cared for by physicians in the rooms

most intensified by the contrast of the
Inauguration day storms.
The crowds were there, but they were
silent crowds filled with sadness instead
of joy, their faces irradiated with ten
der mournfulness instead of with happy
smiles They stood massed together not
moving, reverentIy waiting for the pas
sage of the funeral cortege. and then
thrilling with the emotion of the funeral
music, and then barring their heads in
the storm at the climax of the drama
But with the barring of heads there were
tears and not the glad acclaim, sobs In
stead of shouts of welcome.
The vastness of the concourse that lined
Pennsylvania Avenue and filed all the
plazas along the way and congested the
grounds around the White House and the
Capitol were surprising even in the Capt.
tai City the theatre of the nations pa
geantries The entire city seemed gath
cred, undaunted by the inclemency of the
weather and thousands of people from
Maryland and Virginia and from the cities
to the North were with them.
The street car lines during the early
hours of the day were Overlooking with
people hurrying toward the centre OF the
city. Cars were forced on all the lines
to rush past corners leaving anxious
groups of people for long waits, and
thousands probably walked miles because
of inability to get even standing room
in cars. This difficulty of securing trans
portation grew worse as the hour of the
funeral march drew near and many of
the car lines were forced to give up their
trips on account of the rope barriers on
the Avenue.

larger than had been expected. The de-
sire of the people outside the city to pay
a last tribute to their well-loved Presi-
dent was demonstrated strikingiy by the
crowds at the railway stations early yes
terday morning and indeed until noon.
Trains arrived at frequent intervals to
pour out their living freight.
One of the features of the Avenue
throng was the patience with which the
people waited during the hour and half
of the passage of the funeral procession.
There was almost no thinning OF the
crowds. even when the rain beat down
most heavily. For hours after the pass
ing of the cortege the Avenue and the
streets near it were filled with people.
Looked at from above when the ram
was falling the countless umbrellas made
the Avenue like black and silent sea. its
waves frozen into a strange quiet The
crowds beneath at times could not be
seen and in their revereut stiffness might
almost not have been present for all that
the senses told. The thousands of um-
brellas on both sides Of the Avenue were
like border of mourning for the picture
of the funeral march.
AS the day wore on toward night the
city noises began again and it was al
most possible TO imagine that the steady
rising OF the hum OF sound to its usual
pitch and volume could be noted moment
