GREAT CROWDS.
0CoNCLUDEp FRoM FIRsT PAGEl

CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PACED
Mr.. Foster suddenly disappeared. but he
remained close to the President on the way
TO the cemetery and was near him during
the services at the grave. Mr.. Foster was
also near the Harrison home when Presi-
dent Mckinley arrived, but there was moth
ing about his appearance TO suggest to the
people that he was President McKinley-s
constant companion and ~bodyguard.
n FIRE ALARM.
AS the immediate family filed into the
church. Immediately after the remains, the
fire bells at headquarters rang an alarm
and the clang of the bells on the apparatus
was heard as they left the firehouse. Police
officers rushed to the east side of Pennsyl-
vania street and quickly opened a way for
the chemical engine and it dashed west on
New York street. This unfortunate Incl
however, was only noticed by the
spectators, the members of the funeral par
~ paying no heed To the little excitement.
After the last of the funeral party had
entered the church the thousands of people
again placed their hats on their heads but
did not stir, as they were content 10 stand
In their places until the services III the
moved toward the cemetery. During this
interval there were a few incidents when
some boys tried to push their way to the
front or the crowd Immediately south of
the church. The private soldiers placed
their rifles In front of them and pushed the
crowd back, but only a few inches, and the
space was occupied and there was no room
for the people to retreat.
TO THE CEMETERY.
The services We're concluded about 3:45
and the remains were then brought out to
be placed in the funeral car to be conveyed
TO the cemetery, the last resting place of all
that is mortal of the distinguished man.
The line of march was north on Pennsyl-
vania street to Vermont. west TO Meridian
and thence north to Sixteenth, where the
cortege turned west TO Capitol avenue,
thence to Crown Hill Cemetery. For many
squares north OF the church the streets
were thronged with people, the crowd be-
ing as dense as on the streets leading from
the residence TO the church. After the last
or the carriages passed the crowd dispersed
and moved in all directions, most of them
toward the city. II was at least half an
hour before the streets were cleared, so
large had been the throng.

AN R In TONNAGE
THE LOCsL LINES LAST WEEK IAN
DIED 22,5Is LOADED CARS.
Il. a. Ford Sets Out the situation Re-
garding the Pennsylvania's Buff
faIO Lines-GeneraI Notes.

The train records show that there were
received and forwarded at indianapolis,
in the week ended March 16. a total Of
2s,4S2 cars, the largest movement in the
history of Indianapolis lines in March,
even when rates were demoralized. OF
the total movement, 22.51S were loaded
cars. against 21.261 in the corresponding
week of 1900, against q. 959 in 1899. and an
increase over the week ending March Q.
this year, of 3O3 loaded cars. OF this
increase. the Big Four shows 500. the Penn
sylvania lines 357. and the Peoria & East
ern 81 loaded cars. the other lines, with
the exception of the Indiana. Decatur &
Western, show some increase over last
year. Bad country roads curtailed the
grain movement. and the Indiana, De-
catur & Western felt this more than any
other Indianapolis line. To state to what
special line of freight the Improvement in
business is due would be difficult. as it
covers nearly every article named in class
ihcations of the roads. There is a great
demand for furniture, refrigerator and live
stock cars, the latter being utilized in
hauling freights that are not damaged by
the weather. The agricultural implement
dealers and carriage builders are pressing

the congestion i'm business on the Lake
Shore. the Nickel-plate and the Pennsyl-
vania lines east has been partially re-
lieved, and this is improving east-bound
business. and enables the trunk lines to
return a good many empty as we'll as
loaded cars, which is relieving the local
situation, or at least the car shortage is
not so seriously felt. The tonnage of coal
and iron structural work is not as heavy
as thirty days ago. Deliveries of new cars
are improving the local situation, and
indianapolis shippers are now complain
ing less, as their calls for cars are being
nlled TO a greater extent, clearing up de-
layed business. So well have Indianap-
oils industries been employed that at no
other point, say freight officials of connect
ing lines, have they secured proportionate-
~ as large traffic, this city, by common
consent, having become one of the most
important. The table below shows the
number of cars handled at this point for
the week ended March 10, and for the cor
responding weeks of 1900 and 1899:

E. A. Ford, general passenger agent,
takes exception to the statement made by
some of the newspapers that the Pennsyl-
vania lines, which form a part Of the PAN
American Buffalo line, have applied for a
diferential to Buffalo. The facts in the
case are. Mr.. Ford says, that certain lines
already enjoy a differential fare to Buffalo.
and his application is simply TO the effect
that the Nandalia and Pennsylvania lines,
representing the Akron route over the Erie
Railroad, may be allowed to sell Pan
American tickets TO Buffalo and to Buffalo
and return at as low fares as they may be
sold over any other line. That is all there
is in that part of the question. Some of the
Central Passenger Association lines OBJ
ject TO allowing the new Akron route TO
Buffalo the use of the same fares as will
apply via certain other lines. and there
fore Mr.. Ford, of the Vandalia-Pennsyl-
vania, and Mr.. Roberts, of the Erie, have
appealed the matter to arbitration under
the rules of the Central Passenger Asso-
citation. and Mr.. j.. +. Goddard, of New
York, has consented to act as arbitrator.
The question at issue will doubtless be de-
termined before April /.

GEN. HARRIsON's FRANkNEss.
Instances i'm His Sp~eechmaking of
Courage to Utter Needed Warnings.

Washington Special in New York Post.
"One of President Harrison's most strik-
ing traits" said Assistant Secretary Tay-
Tor to-day, was his ~frankness of speech
on occasion when most men feel a dis
position to gloss over with pleasant phrases
the thoughts which cross their minds. I
saw a good deal Of him when he was
on his long trip through the South and
West, and was much impressed by this
characteristic. At Atlanta, for instance,
where it would have been his easiest course
TO say pleasant things about the complete
return of the South to loyal sentiment,
something had lately occurred to make him
feel the need of putting in a candid word
of warning. and his speech was an ar
gument for the necessity of constitutional
government in its fullest and best sense
in every part of this country. 1t was such
q speech as few Northern statesmen would
have dared to make in the South. especially
where the memorials of the last cause were
sc abundant on every hand.
A Salt Lake City, where they did him
the honor TO raise the American flag for
the first time over the Mormon Taber-
nacle, he spoke to a great multitude, and
the chief theme of his discourse was the
right of the federal government, for its
own protection, to demand that the home
the foundation of all s-ociety-should be
kept pure, and that there should be but
one wife and mother at the head of ii.
A Denver, where he lay over Sunday
because he was unwilling to travel on that
Gay, the citizens were in some perturbation
of mind as to whether TO invite him to de-
liver a public address. They were ac-
customed to a pretty liberal treatment of
the first day of the week among them
selves, but knowing General Harrison
re~verenence FOR it they feared that he nigh.
feel hurt at an invitation to speak. When
they had finally plucked up courage
enough 10 invite him they were delighted,
indeed. at the promptness with which he
assented; but they realized the reason OF
this when they came together at the Tabor
Opera House in a mass which filled every
inch of standing room, and he made them
a speech on the sturdy virtues Of the Pill
grims' Sabbath"
