 MT Woodward left immediately for Weld, Me, where the elder MT. Wood- ward died Friday afternoon. It will be Monday before he reaches the country summer home of his late father. Pend ing his arrival funeral arrangements will not be made.
 , Advices were received here yesterday that MT. and Mrs. Eugene L. Brown, who were intimate friends of the late MT Woodward and Mrs. Woodward, had gone from New York to Weld, and will accompany the remains of Birmingham lamented citizen to the place of inter- ment
 The location of Harvey woodward, who was en route to Birmingham in his auto mobile, was accomplished by the most widespread drag-net that was ever set from this city. Two great railroads were using every means in their power to To- cato the missing young man. and notify him of his great sorrow This was not accomplished for several hours.
 The only thing known here as to the whereabouts of MT. Woodward was that he was between Lexington Ky, and Harrisburg, Pa. The telegraph companies wired every office between those cities and every railroad station was bulle- tined.
 Was Leaving TayIorsviIle, Ky.
 He was located yesterday morning just as he was leaving Taylorsville Ky, and Fuel Agent Yer5es of the Queen and Crescent route, who had been in com mCncation with l.. Sevier of Birmng ham, was the man who gently told him that his father, '"The Captain,' r"s dead. Young MT Woodward did nc < any question, but requested direct the main line of the Louisville and Nash vile railroad. He was told to go to Elizabethtown, Ky. He did so. Upon arriving at that place yesterday at noon MT. Woodward received several messages from Birmingham. He wired Wilson Brown at Birmingham that he had noti- fled Mrs. William H. Woodward and was en route to Weld Me.
 He is expected to arrive there tomor- row if good connections are made. He Is now between Cincinnati and Portland, going as fast as rail and steam can carry him to the side of his late father.
 The most respectful interest was mani fest in Birmingham yesterday in regard to the funeral arrangements over the re- mains of a man whose services to Bir- mingham everyone well informed de- lights to admit and eulogize. It was hoped by a great many of Birmingham $ leading men that an opportunity would be given this city to pay him it's respects, and that the interment be in this city. In furtherance of such a desire tele- | |. L fl. .I~, of Commerce to Mrs. Woodward condol- ing the death of MT. woodward and ex- pressing the grief and shock that his death caused in this city. 1t was mildly suggested that if consistent with all the views of the family his remains be inferred here amid the scenes of his greatest work and where the people of every class are glad to do him homa age No answer has yet been received to the message sent early in the day
 Although many in Birmingham hope Mir Woodward will rest under the shad- ows of Red mountain, there is but slight chance of such being done. The mother and father of the late Birmingham leader are inferred in Wheeling, w Va, and it is considered extremely likely that he has elected to be buried there. Unless Mrs Woodward wills otherwise he will be buried in Wheeling.
 Buildings Modest1y Draped
 It was ordered yesterday that the im- portant buildings owned by MT Wood ward be draped over the entrances in crepe. This action was taken late yes- terday afternoon. The sombre folds of the crepe adorned every chief entrance to those office buildings that he erected. marked feature of the draperies over the buildings was the modesty displayed and the fact that not over 10 feet of cloth was used in attesting the death of the late owner of the buildings.
 Although the location of Harvey Wood- ward yesterday was the chief develop ment surrounding MT. Woodwards $ death, there was constant communication between local relatives of the departed citizen and his late home in Weld. Me. The messages received were to the mem bers of the family of Joseph H. Wood ward, and did not convey any tidings of public interest.
 It is expected that definite information regarding the interment of the late MT. woodward will be received in Birming- ham this afternoon. It was suggested that the remains will be met in New York probably by Harvey Woodward and taken from that city to their final rest ing place. In the event Mrs. William H. Woodward decides upon such course the interment will be made either at Wheeling, W. Va, or Birmingham about Tuesday.
