A GRAND SUCCKSS.
Nr.w Yor.rc, Oct. 18.—The military nnd civic parade capped the climax of the most successful series of consecutive public demonstrations in the nation's history.
It is estimated that fully
1.000,000
people witnessed the great parade, and that 50.000 men were in line, and that the total length of the continuous column was 15 miles.
Order of I'ltraili*.
The military parade was scheduled to start at 10 o'clock, but it was some timo past that hour when Grand Marshal Gen. Martin T. MoMiihoti gave the word for the head of the column to move. Gen. McMnhon was accompanied by a brilliant stafT.
Tlie first division was made up of soldiers from the United States army in command of Col. Loomis L. Langdon, U. S.

This division numbered 8,500 men and six bands.

The letter carriers constituted the fifth division. The sixth was the new lire department, under command of Chief Hugh Bonner. The Exempt Volunteer and Veteran Fire associations made up the seventh division, which included about 5,500 men, representing New York, New Jersey and Long Island associations. This division also included the Second regiment of Fire Zouaves (Seventy-Third New York volunteers). Italian and French military organizations made up the eighth division. The ninth division was composed of German uniformed societies, over 12,000 strong, Italian organizations and French military organizations, and the tenth of independent organizations, including Knights of Pythias, foresters und Polish and Bohemian societies. lJuo ol' March.
The line of march was from the battery up Broadway to Fourth street, around Washington square to Fifth avenue, thence to Fourteenth street, to Fourth avenue, to Seventeenth street, to Fifty-ninth avenue, to Fiftyninth street, where the ceremonies attendant upon the unveiling of the Columbus monument were held.
Ceremonies at tho Monument.
Among those who took part were Vice President Morton, Gov. Flower nnd staff, Senator Hill, Baron Fava, the Italian minister, and the oflicers of the Italian cruiser Bausan.

During the ceremonies the Italian bauds played Italian and American hymns, and the national battery gave the' salute. Tlio ceremonies were witnessed by Gaetano Russo, of Rome, who designed the monument.
Spectacular I'ageaut
Electricity furnished the main features of the street pageant at night, jpcandescent and arc lamps turned Broadway and Fifth avenue into blazing- pathways of light for the hundreds of & ousands who were banked along the ro«'ite of the parade. Globes of fire swung' across tho intersecting streets nnd turned black night, into dazzling day as filr as the eye could see up and down the two great highways.
Koul.e untl Order or tlio Night I'urade.
The route of the parade was up 25 Vwadway to Fourth street, west wuud Washington square, to Fifth snue, to Fourteenth street, to Fourth oue, to Seventeenth street, to Fifth \ue, to Fifty-ninth street.. pij «t,C6ine a platoon of mounted police. 7!he police escort was followed by a body Weyclists 1,000 strong, each bearinL lantern, and led by

marshnll and liis aids, who were dressed in the uniform of the Austrian guards, silver hesnle.ts, white plumes, whito tunics, cuirasses of steel, gold epaulettes, white doeskin riding pants, black shining top boots, spurs, heavy cavalry swords and gauntlets.
Following the grand marshal was the banner of fame, and then came the twenty historical ears or floats. The "car of fame'' led the long line, nnd was followed by a band of prehistoric Americans. lit this ear the winged deity "Fame'' was represented as Hying over the, western hemisphere, to announce to all nations the advent of the Columbian celebration.
After this group came nnothcr banner and "the car of the stone age," or prehistoric Indians. This prehistoric car was surrounded by early inhabitants of this continent, while others were represented as fighting with giant turtles, bears and snakes.
Car of the Sun V.'nrHlilpnrH.
Float No. a was the car of the sun worsliipeis. The Toltecsnn worshipers were seen in the act of sacrificing a victim at the foot of a smoking pyramid, while near burning altars of incense Aztec warriors were supposed to be worshiping tho genius of the sun. The band of the Twelfth regiment followed.
The fourth float was entitled, Victory of Genius, and was presented by the leading Italian society of this city, by whom it was escorted.
The Statuo^of' Columbus car came next, representing homjtge to Columbus as he is greeted by history and fame. On the front of the car was seated America with Spain and Italy on either hand.
The Fourteenth regiment band followed, nnd there came a group representing Cortez, Pizarro, Amerigo Vespucci, Ponce de Leon, Cabot- and other great mariners. Following came a body of Spanish knights, then the cortege of King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella, the Spanish court on horseback, then a model of the caravcl Santa Maria, drawn by sailors.
The Puritan car, which came next, was also w.-il received. It represented a Puritan wedding, John Alderi and Priseilla both riding the same horse, nnd other pretty features.
A group of Dutch colonists next attracted attention and after them came William Penn and the Quakers, as well as a body of mounted ludiuns.
The car of the capitol, a model of the cnpitol at Washington, ligjited within and without, came next. The car was guarded by a body of navy and army veterans. In addition the forty-four states were represented by as many daughters of veterans.
Naval cadets and the junior naval reserves next showed up in the line of march, and after the Seventy-first regiment band cams groups representing Gen. Grant, President Lincoln and their staffs. Immediately behind them was the American standard and the banner of liberty.
Car of Liberty.
"Liberty car" was next in line, and showed Liberty enlightening the world. In front of Liberty sat Justice, supported by Equality and Fraternity behind Liberty was Peace, Goodwill and Hospitality. Then came a group of all nations, a body of Continentals, an immense bnnner and Gen. Washington and staff, escorted by the Washington Continental guards, the Washington Light infantry and tho Frontier scou4s. Coining after the scouts wore the chiefs of the allied tribes on horseback and then a body of Indians and another large banner.
The Prem* Car.
Following the last mentioned banner was the "car of the press." The press was represented by a beautiful woman, dressed in black, coming out of an ink bottle. She held a wenthervaue in her hand and was surrounded by peons. Behind her a number of printers were at work showing the wholo process of printing a newspaper. Official programmes were distributed us souvenirs from this car as it rolled along the route.
Following the press car came' the car of "Music," the car of "Science," the car of "Poetry and Romance," and then came a car which won probably more applause than any other in the parade. It was the car of "The American Woman," and was inteuded to show the supremacy of American women over those of all other parts of the world. The supremacy was shown by a beautiful maiden sitting in a rocking chair on top of tho globe, cupids offoring her hearts and garlands lying at her feet. Another large banner and a group of sailors came next, after which the oar of "The Oceans" was admired by all. This car was followed by Columbia's ship of state, by more banners, by more music and by "Tho Battalion of Progress."
Tlie Hydro of l.lghlnlug.
Last and not least of the beautiful floats came tho car of Electricity. This inasterpiecc was labeled the "Hydra of Lightning, Controlled by the Genius of Edison." It was !!0 feet long, was drawn by ten horses and was illuminated by 3,000 electric lights. By the words mentioned, "The Hydra of Lightning Controlled by the Genius of Edison," appeared a giant monster head filled with electric lights. By lilies of miniature incandescent lights thirty bcantiful young girls in metallic costumes stood on a revolving «iislc and reflected the thousands of lights on the float. In the center of this group was a globe with long latitudinal lines marked in electric lights. It is safe to say that such a magnificent float has never beforo been seen, and the applause with which it was greeted showed it was appreciated by all.
Judge Hotkln Kesletlft.
TOPEKA. Kan., Oct. 18.—The resignation of Judgo Tlieodosius Botkin, of tho Thirty-second judicial district, was tendered to Gov. Humphrey Wednesday, and William Easton, of Hutchiuson, was appointed to succccd him.

NI'HIAI, OF TENNYSON.
LONDON,
Oct. 18. With all the hon
ors the church to which he belonged could pay, tlie remains of the greatest poet England has produced in latter days have been laid in their final resting place beneath tho pavement of tho historic Westminster Abbey. Tho funeral services will long be remembered.
Ctlmo Bearing Wreaths.
At 10 o'clock the doors of tho abbey wore swung open nnd the tjeket holders were admitted. Tho congregation comprised men eminent in all the walks of life, statesmen, clergymen, authors, artists, members of tho dramatic profession, men whose names are household words wherever tho English tongue is known. Many of those who entered the building carried wrenths which were placed in the Jerusalem chamber with those already deposited there. Tho Jerusalem chamber contained a mass of most beautifiul flowers, including 200 superb wreaths and crosses. Among the tokens was a beautiful design sent by Princess Louise, composed mostly of lilies and stcphanotis. Among the most noticeable floral gifts was a wreath sent by Mrs. Gladstone, on behalf of her husband and herself.
The queen sent a wreath composed of laurel leaves tied with a broad bow of white silk ribbon. A card was attached to tlie wreath on which, in tho queen's own handwriting, were the words: "A mark of sincere regard and admiration from Victoria R. 1." Her majesty also sent metallic wreath of lauj-el, with the letters "V. R. I." in gilt worked into a monogram and bearing'? He words: "A tribute of affectionate regard and true admiration from the sovereign."
The Pall-Hearers and Chief Mourner*.
Promptly at 12 o'clock the procession was formed in the Jerusalem chamber. It was headed by two oflicials of the abbe5'. Then came the coflin borne on the shoulders of stalwart inen, while the pall-bearers, Henry White, secretary of tho Americon legation Lord Salisbury, Very Rev. Henry Montagu Butter, Sir James Taget, Lord Rosebery and I'rof. Froude, marched on either side, their fingers just touching tho union jack with which the coflin was covered. Tho chief mourners followed, headed by Lady Tennyson and Hallam Tennyson, Mrs. Ilallam Tennyson, Mrs. Birrell, Lionel Tennyson's widow, and the grandchildren of the dead poet followed in the order named.
Tho Ceremonies.
As the procession moved the deeptoned abbey bell began to toll, and as the mournful sound swept out over the city, the coflin, followed by the mourners, wrs carried slowly around the cloisters, which were lined with boys from the Westminster school. When the procession reached the main door of the abbey it was received by the deHn, Very Rev. George Granville Bradley, Canon Duckworth. Canon Farrar and other members of the clergy. As the cortege passed up the aisle, along which were ranged boys in uniform from the Gordon homo, in which Lord Tennyson was always deeply interested, the solemn words: "I am the Resurrection and the Life" of tho burial service were heard, and then tho choir broke forth in the processional hymn. Upon reaching the chancel the coflin was placed on a rest just below the altar. This rest was covered with a beautifully embroidered cloth. On it was a crown of flowers and the words of the last verse of "Crossing tho Bar," one of the last poems written by Lord Tennyson. Canon Duckworth opened the service for the dead, after which the choir chnntcd tho Nineteenth Psalm: "The Heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament sliowetli His handiwork." Then the lesson of the day was read and the choir sang "Crossing the Bar," which had been set to music bv John Frederick Bridge, organist of Westminster Abbey. The effect was most beautiful, and many of those present were moved to tears by the words of this touching poem. Then the choir sang the latest poem written by Lord Tennyson: "Tho Silent Voices," the music of which was composed by Lady Tennyson. This poem consists of only ten lines, beginning:
When the dumb hour, clothed In black llrlngs the dreams about my bed, Call me not so often bad:.
Silent voices of the dead.
Lord Tennyson dedicated this poem to his wife only ten days ago. lfurlrd lit the I'oet'. Corner.
After the singing was finished the coflin was relifted, and followed by the choir the procession moved to the poet's corner, where the pavement had been raised next the grave of Browning. The sides of the grave were lined with pur pie and white cloth. By the side of the grave the choral parts of the service were sung. The remainder of the service, the committal to the grave, the prayer and collect were said by the dean. Then the hymn, "Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty." was sung and the benediction pronouueed by Rt. Hon. and Most Rev. Edward White Benson,archbishop of Canterbury, primate of all England and metropolitan. Following the benediction, the Dead march in Saul was played on the organ and its strains filled the abbey an the mourners slowly dispersed.
The largest creditors of Poor & Son, leather manufacturers of Boston, have agreed to an extension. The liabilities arc placed at £230,000 and the assets S100,0U0 more.
