Canton, o., Sept 10. The streets OF
the little city Of Canton this morning
were filled with waving plunies. pranc-
ing horses and densely packed bodies Of
moving men, assembling here for the
procession which is to escort the re-
m Of the late President from the
cl o.ch to Westawn cemetery, this after
noon.
All night long civic, military, fra
ternal, social and commercial organiza-
tions from the four quarters of the conf
pass had been pouring in, and into the
seething mass of humanity already here
the early morning trains deposited other
thousands. so fast the trains arrived,
following on each others heels, that
there appeared to be one continuous
string of cars unloading their human
freight through the station into the
congested streets beyond. Thirty special
trains. in addition to the regular trains,
had arrived before noon. The biggest
crowd in the history of Canton, which
was here during the campaign OF 1896,
estimated at over 60,000, was exceeded
today.
The people overflowed the sidewalks
and literally packed the streets from
side to side. The greatest crush, OF
ooufse, was In East Tuscarawas street,
the principal thoroughfare, and North
Market street, on which the Mckinley
cottage and the Harter residence, at
which President Roosevelt was stop.
ping, are located. The we.stricken
crowds, upon their arrival all moved as
by common impulse toward the old
familiar Mckinley cottage, where the
remains were lying.
Military guards stationed at the four
corners of the lawn paced their beats,
but there was no other sign of life
about the house of death. The window
shades we're down. A long border OF
black, which had been put in place
| after the body was removed to the
house last night, fringed the roof OF
| the porch from which President Mo
kinney had spoken to dalegatio pms from
every State in the Union and where he
had met and talked with all the chief
tains of his party. No badge of con-
vential mourning was oil the door. In
| stead there was a simple wreath oi
| palms bisected by a beautiful band oil
wide purple satin ribbon.
Sorrowfully the throngs turned away,
the people to take up their positions
at tho church, the representatives to
seek their places in the imposing pro.
oessions which was to follow the
remains to the cemetery.
The two sections of the train bearing
| the members OF the Senate and House
of Representatives and other govern
ment officials from Washington arrived
| during the morning.

we thank God for his marvellous gifts,

impractical and foolish. Whatever else
may be said of him his strong con-
yictions and his stainless unimpeacha-
BILE character will remain. Zone will
likely enough in after years look back
and find some mistakes, but we shall
never as long as lis memory remains
think OF him but as devout Ohritians
patriot, who stuck through thick and
thin Tor the best interest and welfare OF
his country.
Such is the mau whom We have lost
and whom as a nation We mourn and
desire to remember; such is tho man
of whom we would desire posterity to
read in the after history Of this country.
Such is the man whose charm Of per-

same moral tone. and the same princi-

Driver Tyson said that the only reason

1t was all ended at last. Capt. Biddle
of Co. U, Fourteenth Infantry, who
will command the guard which is to be
placed around the vault, stepped uE to
line OF five soldiers he had posted just
north OF the doorway and who through
ont the ceremony had stood at present
arms. One of them passed quickly into
the vault, taking station at the head Of
the coffin; another placed himself at
the foot, and three men stood in the
doorway, two on the lover step and the
third on the floor of the vault directly
behind them. There they remained
until the passage OF the funeral process
sion.
The President, members Of the oabi-
net and officers of the army and navy
then entered their carriages, and, fol-
lowed by the mnmbers of the family,
returned to the city.
The last of the procession passed the
bier at 8. 40 o'clock, and then orders
we're given by Capt. Biddle that the
cemetery should be cleared. The order
was quickly carried out, and the body
Of the President was left in the care of
his guard of honor. The guard that
will protect the bier is Co. @ of the
Fourteenth Infantry. 1t includes 76
non commissioned men and was ordered
to Canton from Fort Wayne, Detroit.
Nature has been kind in selecting the
last resting place for President Nc
Kinley. Beautiful West Lawn Gene
terry is on high knoll overlooking a
peaceful valley, with the busy little
city OF Canton below. II it were not for
an intervening church spire one might
get from this elevation a glimpse of the
Mckinley home.
Just inside the stately entrance
stands the gray stone vault, where for
time the coffin will repose. Its dreary
exterior is relieved by great masses of
flowers, banked all about until the gray
walls are shut out from view Later the
body will be taken from the vault and
committed to the Mckinley burial lot.
MRS. M'KISLEY's DEEP GRIEF.
Mrs. McKinley's condition is excit-
lug grave apprehension among those
caring for her, and it is feared that the
dread collapse may come at any moment.
Since she has returned to the old
home the full realization Of the awful
calamity hes come uron her. Last
evening, after the body had been
brought from the Court House and de-
posted in the little front room formerly
used as the Presidents library, she
pleaded to be allowed to enter the room
ana sit beside the coffin. Consent was
reluctantly granted, and for half an
hour the stricken widow sat in the dim
light beside the flower draped bier.
Then she was led away to her room,
and has not left 1t since.
She wert piteously hour after hour
yesterday. Owing to her ondition she
was unable TO take no part in any of
Delaware gazette and state journal. (Wilmington, Del.) 1883-1902, 1901-09-26

the ceremonies. From this time on she
will be guarded with the most solicit.
Gus care and quiet, for it is only in
this way that collapse can be averted.
The face of the dead President was
seen for the last time when it lay in
state Wednesday IN the Court House.
The coffin was not opened after 1t was
removed to tine Mckinley residence,
and the members of the family had no
opportunity to look again upon the
silent features. 1t was sealed before it
was borne away from the Court House.
MANY old friends of the family had
hoped that the face would be expusod
while the services in the church were
being held, hut this suggestion could
not be agreed to. When Mrs. Mckin-
lev came into the death chamer for her
alst moments beside her dead husband
she wished to have a final look at the
upturned face. But this was impossi-
BILE, and the sealed coffin with its
flowers and flags were all that she saw.
TONS OF SUPERB FLOWERS.
The collection of flowers was proba-
bly, the most beautiful ever seen ip the
United States. The oonseravtories Of
the country had been denuded to sup
ply them.
BY direction of the monarchs of
Europe, the South American rulers,
the governors of the British colonies in
A ustralia and Canada, the Emperor of
japan, from the four quarters of the
earth, in fact, came directions to adorn
the bier of Mr.. IA cRInley with flowers.
But these tributes from foreign coun-
tries were buried beneath those from
Mr.. McKinley's fellow countrymen.
There we're tons and tons of them. A
list OF those who sent them would be
almost complete roster of men promi,
nent in the Official, commercial and
social life of the United States.
