 Twenty-four mounted police led the way. Behind them were the combln- ed bands of the dreadnoughts Wyom- ing and Texas, and behind the bands six hundred bluejackets from these same ships. Next came the caskets in single file. At the the side or each rode policeman, and at the corner of each caisson walked a National Guardsman. The Stars and Stripes covered the caskets.
 Behind the last caisson came car riages bearing the president, the sec retary of the navy, senators, con- gressmen and representatives of the state and city.

The Wyomlng's men came ashore ill their own boats.

At city hall, whose columns and protico were draped i1 black, the cortege halted while Mayor Mitchell | placed upon caisson a wreath of orchids, the city's tribute. As he did so, the bluejackets stood at pre- sent arms, and 800 school children sang Nearer, My God, to Thee.' Gathered at the City Halr were per haps 10000 spectators.
