The Most Imposing and Impressive Funeral Ever Seen in
America Was That Held in Canton yeSt6rddu-The
DiSCOnSOIat8 Widow Sadly Broken.

CANTON, O., Sept, 20-Out
under the whispering oak trees
ofWestlawn Cemetery, in vine
covered vault, all but buried in a
sloping hillside, all that is earth
ly of William Mckinley rests.
About the flower-strewn slopes
a picket line of soldiers, stands
silent in the shadows.
The end of this third tragedy
of assassination has come. The
pomp and ceremony attending
the burial of a President of the
United States is now of the past.
The administration Of the new
Chief Magistrate has begun.
All day mufied drums beat
their requiems. brasses walled
out the strains of marches of the
dead, great men of the nation
followed funeral car in grief
and tears. Through solid banks
of bareheaded men and weeping
women and children, fringed by
a wall Of soldiers, marching mil
itary and civilians passed with
the mourners of the distinguish
ed dead.
First among those who fol-
lowed the dead during the jour

was the man who hurried to
Washington last night. Theodore
Roosevelt.
Out in the dark frame house
on North Market street, is one
who has suffered the greatest
loss, Mrs. Mckinley, lingering
on the point of utter collapse.
The services of song and prayer
in the church were not heard by
her; she do not see the march

the last rites were being said she
remained in a room of the fam

a dignity that struck dumbness

THE GOOD KING ALFRED
After a Thousand Years a Monument is
Erected to. His Memory

WINCHESTER, England, Sept.
21-In the presence of a vast
concourse of Anglo-Saxon dele
gates and officials Lord Rosebery
yesterday unveiled the great
statue of King Alfred. In the
course of his eulogy of the Sax
on king Lord Rosebery said:
"King Alfred wrought immort-
al work for us and for our sister
nation over the sea, which, in
the supreme moments of stress
and sorrow, is Irresistibly joined
to us across the seas"
The city of Winchester was in
holiday garb. Business was
stopped and the main thorough
fares were lined with troops. A
great procession, military, naval,
civic, ecclesiastical and academic,
preceded the unwilling of the
statue. The city was lavishly
decorated.
In the absence of Mr.. Choate,
the United States ambassador,
from the luncheon at the Guild
hall. Charles Francis Adams re-
sponded in behalf of the Ameri-
can delegates. He took occasion
to mention the appreciation of
the Americans for the deep,
spontaneous, all.pervasive, sim
cere sympathy manifested by
Great Britain at the time of
Americas national bereavement.

STEAMER LOST WITH CREW.

son Wrecked in a Gale.

SAULT STE MARIE, Mich,
Sept. 2O-The steamer Hudson,
belonging to the Western Trans
it company, foundered in Lake
Superior, off Eagle river, last
Monday, and it's crew of twenty
five men were undoubtedly
drowned.
This is in all probability the
steamer that was seen to 90
down by people on the beach at
Eagle river on Monday after
noon.
The news of the identity of the
lost steamer was brought here
today by the crew of the steamer
John M. Nicol, who sighted the
Hudson in distress but were un-
able to do anything for the crew
because of their own peril.
It is believed that some acct
dent happened to the machinery
or steering gear in the
furious storm which swept
Lake Superior on Monday
and that the steamer fell
into the trough of the sea
and rolled until the cargo shift
ed. The steamer then sprung a
leak or had the matches broken
in by the seas sweeping the
decks and foundered within sight
of land.

Yesterdays funeral was the
most imposing and impressive
ever seen in America. The pro-
gram as arranged was carried
out to the minutest detail. The
depth and sincerity of the grief
displayed cannot be expressed in
words.
Here in this vine covered
vault the remains of President
Mckinley will lie until they are
bnried in granite. There remain
now only the plans for a monu-
ment to his memory. Already
these are under way. Yesterday
Speaker Henderson of the house
of representatives. accompanied
by Congressman S. E. Payne of
New York, and Congressman S.
b. Dalzell of pennsylvania, were
driven to Westlawn Cemetery
and viewed the location of the
Mckinley plot.
The newer part of the GENE
terry was also visited, and al
though the statement is not def
nitely made tits suggested that
! the coming session of congress
will probably appropriate funds
for the erection OF a monument.
The plans and details are as yet
embryonic, but will assume def
mite proportions in a week or
two.

TRIAL OF THE ATROGIOUS GzOLGOSz

BUFFALO. N. Y, Sept. 21-
Unless present plans are chang
ed by unexpected developments
Leon Czolgosz will be brought
before Justice White Of the SUI
preme court for trial next Mon
day morning and the state will
endeavor to prove the guilt of
the one man without duplicating
others in the case. Judges Lew.
is and Titus, the attorneys de
signated to defend the prisoner,
will confer and plan the ir defense
which it is thought will be to
question the sanity of the prison
er and to try to show that CzOl-
gosz was a tool in the hands of
other conspirators and not Who'll
ly accountable for the crime.
In taking up the conspiracy
plan the defense may be able to
bring forth some evidence which
the state has failed to find. If
so, no one will be more pleased
than Prosecuting Attorney Pen
ney. Mr.. Penny has exhausted
his resources in an endeavor to
substantiate his suspicious of a
plot including other anarchists.
Abundant evidence is at hand
showing that Czolgosz was ac-
quainted with and held several
conferences with Emma Gold
man and other anarchists within
six weeks of the time he shot the
president. but only this circum-
stantial evidence is at hand to
prove a conspiracy. The local
grand jury is hearing all the evil
dence obtainable regarding other
anarchists and would be glad to
return more indictments were it
justified in doing so.

SIXTY SEVEN DROWN.

LONDON, Sept. 20-TheBritish
torpedo boat destroyer Cobra
foundered in the North Sea on
Wednesday morning. Of the
seventy-nine persons on board
only twelve were saved.
From the meager details at
hand it appears that the Cobra
struck on the Gudgeon Rocks at
7:30 o'clock Wednesday morning.
The boilers immediately explod-
ed, and the vessel broke in two.
Orders were issued Immediate
ly to lower the boats. The first
boat lowered was swamped and
all the occupants drowned. Five
boats altogether were launched.
Lieutenant Bosworth Smith,
the Cobra's commander. stood
upon the bridge with his arms
folded, as impassive as if on par
ade, and went down with the
vessel.
While there is no hope that
more than the twelve are alive,
torpedo boats and cruisers have
gone at full speed to the scene OF
the disaster, which is the most
serious the British navy has suf-
fered since the sinking of the
Victoria.

DUAL ALLIANCE POPULAR
The Russian Bear Tramping Around
Among the Lilies Of France.

NEW YORK, Lept. 21-Com-
menting on the visit Ct the car
to France, the Paris correspon-
dent Of the Tribune says: The
receptions accorded to the car
and czarina and carried out under
the most brilliant auspices at
Dunkirk, Complegne and Reims
have aroused an enthusiasm
throughout France quite equal
to that which characterized the
imperial visit five years ago.
The expressions sfriend" and
Tally" made use of by Nicholas
II. and President Loubet in their
toasts and speeches are felt here
to be no mere empty compliments,
but as indicating in simplest lam
guage the real strength and sig
nificance of the dual alliance,
which has now been an accom-
plisLed fact for ten years, and
the allusion made by President
Loubet in calling attention to the
fact that it was Alexandra Ribot,
minister of foreign affairs in
1892, who was at that early date
one of the principal architects OF
the Franco Russian alliance, is
regarded as a graceful act OF
personal justice.

BUFFALO, n. Y, Sept. 21-
CzolgOsz's movements since he
came to Buffalo have been traced
pretty accurately and his associ-
ates examined in the hope of
getting clew to a plot. He
came to Buffalo from Cleveland
on June IA and took lodging in
West Seneca, where he remained
without any visible means of
support until about Aug. 1, when
he disappeared only to turn up
in Chicago at the headquarters
of the Free society ten days lat
en- There he met Emma Gold
man and other Chicago anarch-
lists. Aug. 16 he returned to
West Seneca and remained until
Sept. 1, when he took lodgings
at Nowak hotel, where he lived
when he committed the crime.
He was alone most of the time
while in the city, and spent his
time largely in reading newspa-
pers. How he secured money
for his living expenses is ques-
that the authorities would like
to answer. He paid his board
bills regularly and had small
amount of money most of the
time. 1t is said he exhibited a
check for $47. so at one time,
which he received by mail.
Emma Goldman was in Buffalo
twice after Czolgosz came, but
there seems to be no proof that
they met here. Czolgosz came
over to Buffalo only a few times
before he killed the president.
Now these trips are said to
have been accommodating ex-
petitions to get the lay of the
land and to plan the murder.

were told by Mr.. Roosevelt that
he could not think of accepting
their designations, and that he
expected them to remain in his

ltal term.
Like their colleagues in the
presidents official family, Mr..
Hay and Mr.. Gage consented to
retain their portfolios. Ia Buff
falo and since leaving there the
president talked privately with
each of the other cabinet officers
and impressed on him that the
tender of the reappointment was
not made out of mere courtesy
but came from sincere desire to
keep the machinery of govern
ment running uninterruptedly
and to show the country that.
while President Mckinley was
dead. his personal Influence
would live.
There is not the slightest like
lihood of cabinet change, bar
ring unforeseen events, for a long
time to come. Secretary Hay
and Secretary Long had on
more than one occasion endeav-
ored to get President Mckinley
to permit them TO retire from
their offices.
Mr.. Hay found that the hard
work of his department was hav-
ing bad effect on his health,
and his recent bereavement made
him doubly ANXIOUS to leave the
public service. He has retained
the state department portfolio
largely because of his desire to
see the NicaraguanCanal negotia-
tons disposed of before he leaves
the Office, and it is not likely that
he will breach the subject of re
tirement to President Roosevelt.

health not improve. until the SEN

Despite the desires of Secre-
tary Long to retire to private
life, there can be no doubt that
he has determined to conform to
the wishes of President Roose-
welt, and it is certain he will not
again offer to resign from the
cabinet until it is absolutely GER.

embarrass the President in any
way. There is not the slightes,

OPINION RULED OUT.

WASHINGTON, Sept: 21-The
Schley court of inquiry recon
vened yesterday and before ad-
iournment examined four wit
nesses. The most important in
cident of the day was the decis-
ion of the court withdrawing a
question, put by the court itself,
asking a witness TO give his
opinion concerning point under
controversy. The witness was
Rear Admiral Higginson, who
participated in the Santiago cam
paign as captain of the battleship
Massachusetts. This vessel at
one time was a part Of the flying
squadron. commanded by Com
modore Schley and the court
asked him to state whether all
possible measures We're taken to
capture or destroy the Spanish
vessel Christobal Colon as it lay
in Santiago harbor from May q
to June l, 1898. Admiral Hig-
ginson replied that he did not be
lieve so.
Counsel for Admiral Schley OBJ
jected to the question on tie
ground that a reply would in.
volve an opinion and not a state
ment of facts. Judge Advocate
Lemly admitted that the prece.
dents were against questions OF
this character and the court with.
drew this interrogatory. 1t is
generally admitted that his de-
cisiou will have the effect of ma
terially shortening the term Of
the court, as will also the courts
manifest intention to cut ouI
irrelevant questions and hear
say testimony. In severa
cases the witnesses were admon
ished to relate only events com
ing within their own observa
ton. Admiral Dewey showed
himself prompt and methodical
presiding officer. He called the
court to order exactly at the des
ignated hour, and adjourned il
just as promptly at o'clock.
The witnesses today were

GhBIN6T MEETING
Yesterdays Session at The Executive
Mansion q Sad One-Currcnf buSi-
ness Discussed and Policies Out
Iined-GaOd Impression Created bu
the New Chief Magistrate.

WASHINGTON, D. G. Sept 21-
After suspension of three days
as a mark of respect to the dead
president the business of the
government was resumed at
Washington yesterday. The
train bearing President Roose-
welt and the members of his cabi-
net arrived at the Pennsylvania
station at 9::2O o'clock, and fifteen
minutes later the president en-
tered the white house and, going
at once to the elevator, proceed
ed to the cabinet room, where
President Mckinley was wont to
do the greater part of his work.
When the new chief executive
reached the white house he walk
ed briskly to the big front door,
which swung wide open to re-
ceive him. He spoke pleasantly
as he passed to the watchmen
and other employees of the man
sion and, reaching his Office, was
joined almost Immediately by
Secretary Long, who did not go
to Canton to take part in the
funeral ceremonies.
At IL o'clock all of the mem
bers of the cabinet had arrived
at the white house and soon
were seated around the familiar
table. President Roosevelt &C.
Cupied a seat at its head and in
the chair long occupied by his
predecessor. 1t all seemed
strange TO these devoted advis-
ers of the dead president to sit
at the tNble without him at its
head, and the gloom and solem-
nifty which characterized the
meeting was not unbefitting the
occasion.
The cabinet was in session
about an hour and a half, all OF
the time being spent in a general
review of the more important
questions, which will require the
attention of the new president.
All of the members were present
except Attorney General Knox,
who stopped for a few days in
Pittsburg. Each member ex-
planned to the president the pol.
Icy which had been followed in
dealing with the matters under
consideration and their present
status. No new business was
taken up.
Members subsequently ex
pressed themselves as having
confidence in Mr.. ROOsevelt's
ability to give the country &
strong, able and conservative ad
ministratlon, and he will have
their loyal support to the same
degree as they gave it to the late
president.
Secretary Cortelyou is arrang
ing the Mckinley effects fol
shipment and President Roose
welt will become the occupant o.
the white house next Monday.
