LAST TRIBUTE TO
DEAD MAYOR

New YORK, Sept, % The body of
Mayor Gaynor was taken at 80 this
morning from its resting place in the
city lall to Trinity church where Bish-
op Greer read over it the solemn Epis-
CORAL services for the burial of the
dead
Many thousand citizens blacRened
the sidewalk from curb TO building
lines as the funeral train crept along
the ten blocks of lower Broadway
from the city hall to the church. The
low lying clouds lifted shortly before
the long cortege started and oyer the
march to the church the sun shone
fitfully.
Heading the throng of marcher was
a single line of eight mounted police.
Behind them came the police band,
playing the dead march, regiment
Of mounted police twelve abreast.
and another repiment of police on
foot in lines that stretched across
Broadway from curb to curb.
Next was the coffin. With the Of
fetal flag of the mayor draped over
its head, the coffin lay ten feet above
the roadway on a catafalque whose
somber folds of crepe were unrelieyed
| by color.
The twelve honorary pail bearers,
headed by William II. Taft, marched
six on each side of the coffin. Behind
them came official committees of the
city, two companies OF city hall po-
! licemen, who had come in daily con-
tact with the mayor during his life
time-and the long train or organiza-
tions and individuals chosen from the
many who applied for places in the
funeral train.
More than $4,000 had wanted to be
! in line, but in accord with Mrs. Gay
nor's wishes for as simple services
and little display as possible, less
! than half the number were permitted
to participate. So silent stood the
/ throngs of spectators that the tolling
of the bell III the tower of Trinity
could be heard at the city hall when
! the cortege started. Tens Of thous-
ands stood silently about the church
during the service. The seating ca
pacity of $50 was insufficient to pro-
vide for even a small fraction of the
thousands who sought admittance.
An overflow meeting was held in St.
Paul's church half dozen blocks
away.
After halting at the church while
the body was taken from the cata-
! faloue to the chancel on the should
ers of six firemen and six policemen

the conclusion of the services. Then
the march was resumed TO the Green
wood cemetery in Brooklyn.
! The city's industries marked time
during the funeral service.
! The municipal departments were
closed for the day; the New York
Stock Exchange did not open until
noon. The consolidated stock eX-
change and several mercantile ex-
changes were closed all day. a mil
lion school children participated in
services in the dead mayors memory
