Prince Henry left the Hohenzollern
shortly before II o'clock p. m. in a
closed carriage and was escorted by
troop l of squadron A to the Twenty
third street ferry, where he was con-
veyed on a special boat to the Penn
sylvania railroad station in Jersey
City. All along the route he was
cheered by crowds lining the sidewalks
and at the ferry house it was all the
police and troopers could do to clear
an opening for his entry. He was ac-
companied by most of his staff. On
their arrival in Jersey City they were
conducted to special train of the
Pennsylvania railroad which had been
waiting for him. An immense con-
course of people witnessed his depar.
ture for Washington.

SECRETARY HAY DELIVERS THE EuLoeY
President Roosevelt and Prince
Henry, the Diplomatic Corps and
Other Noted Guests Are Present.
Ceremonies Are of a Solemn md
Most Impressive Character.

Washington, Feb. 2s.-At noon
Thursday in the great hall of repre-
sentatives, in the presence of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, Prince Henry of
Prussia. brother of the German en-
peror; the members of the cabinet,
the justices of the supreme court,
the general of the army and officers
of the army and navy who have re-
ceived the thanks of congress, the
ambassadors and other diplomatic
representatives of foreign countries,
the senators and representatives in
congress and large number of dis
tinguished guests, Hon. John Hay,
McKinley's premier, pronounced
eulogy upon his dead chief.
Strange Condolences.
By a strange coincidence Thursday
was the twentieth anniversary of
that on which James G. Blaine in
the same hall delivered his eulogy
upon the martyred Garfield, and
stranger still the subject of Thurs
days memorial service was the chair
man of the committee that had
charge of the arrangements on that
occasion.
The Musical Programme.
At IL o'clock the Marine band be-
gan the rendition of the musical pro-
gramme, which was as follows:
Overture-Stabat Mater-Rossini
Paraphrase-Nearer My God to Thee
Leneger.
Observation-Disclosures Rusticana-Mes-
cagn.
Song-Lead Kindly Light
Song--Lost Chord-Sullivan.
Largo-Handel.
Tribute of Love.
After all was in readiness, Senator
Frye called the assemblage to order
and after a fervent prayer by Rev. DR..
Couden, the blind chaplain of the house,
he introduced the orator of the day.
With impressive dignity Secretary Hay
arose and placed upon the desk in front
of him a roll of manuscript. AS he be-
gan to read with a slow, clear enuncia-
ton he seemed aware of the intense
interest not alone in his subject, but
in his own personality, as he read his
tribute of love and loyalty to his de-
parted chief.
Perfect Storm of Applause.
Throughout the delivery of the
speech the audience listened with great
interest, but the peroration coupling
together, as if for all time, the names
of Washington and Lincoln and McKin-
ley, seemed especially to impress the
hearers and as Secretary Hay uttered
the last solemn words the spectators
burst into perfect storm of applause
which lasted for several minutes. The
president himself seemed as deeply i'm
pressed as those about him and both
he and the members of his cabinet
We're quite as enthusiastic as the re
mainder of the audience. One hour
and twenty-five minutes was consumed
in the delivery of the grafton. The
benediction was offered by Rev. DR.. Mil
burn, the blind chaplain of the senate
and to the strains of Cardinal New
mans famous hymn LEAD Kindly

president and those around him arose
and quilted the hall. The members OF

The heavy drop in cash reserves and the
enormous expansion in credits of the

attention. This is not abnormal at the

is always a quick and violent return of
