CARTER AT REST.
The Remains of the Late Mayot Harrison Are Entombed.
AN IMPOSING FUNERAL PAGEANT.
It Was Miles In Length and Was Viewed by Hundreds of Thousands of People as It Wound Its Way Through ieJv
Chle go's Streets.
TUB CITY'S LASS TB1DUTE. CHICAGO, NOV. 9.—Mayor Carter 11.
Harrison's remains ware laid at rest at Graoeland after the most ImprQBsivo obsequies ever accorded a civilian in the oity of Chicago or elsewhere. Tho bodywas accompanied from the city hall to tho church where the ceremonies were held and from thence to tho oemetery by a funeral cortege of impressive proportions.
The funeral filled the entire day. It overshadowed every other incident of the city's life. It blocked wide streets for mile upon mile. It mustered out a great army which was half military and half olvio. it Btopped the traffic in the streets, brought business to a standstill and realised to the fullest extent tho ambition of the man who had passed nway. He had said that it was his desire to carry with him to the grave the respect and admiration of all citizens. His desire was fulfilled. The honors waiting for him, had he been spared tho cruel assassination, could not have compared with those offered Wednesday. Those who had fought with him and those who had fought against him in the strife for political supremacy marched under one furled flag and wore the same badge of mourning.
The Kntlra City Represented.
There have been larger and more brilliant parades In Chicago, but never before was there any public observance so representative of the entire city. The government, the state, county, the city and the private citizens of all sorts sont their delegations. Never before did government soldiers, state militia, the body of municipal and county officers, political clubs of both parties, labor unions, secret societies, the state officers, the chosen leaders at the bar, school children, church organizations, singing societies and clubs representing almost every nationality unite to do honor to one man.
Some Estimates.
There can be no safe estimate of th number of people who watched th funeral cortege. They were scattered over so many miles that guesses would be rash. Some of the marshals who traversed the entire route said that the number war, somewhere between 300,000 and 500,000. It took the long col umn one hour and twenty-six minutes to pass the corner of Lake and La Salle streets. Estimates as to the number of men in line varied from 7,000 to 10,000.
Ready for the l.ast March.
All night long the body of the dead mayor lay in state under the canopy of flowers and at 10 o'clock, the hour set for the closing of the doors to the long lines of people who wished for the last lime to gaze upon the face of the dead, crowds were still flowing in a steady stream past the catafalque. At 10:80, half an hour after the time set, the doors were closed, thousands being turned away, and the black covering was drawn over the glass plate of the casket. It was then denuded of its flowers.
A. Gorgeous Funeral Car.
The hearse, a magnificent specimen of the carriage-builders art, was drawn up to the La Salle street entrance of the city hall. It was the gorgeous hearse that has been on exhibition in the Transportation building at the fair and was drawn by six black horses. On the seat was Robert Ransom, the veteran liveryman who has acted as coachman for presidents and other dignitaries on every state occasion in Chicago for many years.
The Cortege Moves
Eight captains of police lined themselves up in front, and eight. captains of fire compunies bore the casket to the funeral car on La Salle street. As they came slowly down the steps with their burden the crowd became very quiet. Everybody who could raise their arms in the crush of people took off tlieir hats. The march was then slowly taken up. The honorar" pallbearers, heads of city departments and the mayor's retinue lined non either side of the entrance. Tnc Cv icago Hussars presented rrms no. their bright sabers flashed .a the L" The solemn and lengthy mr.rch was thus begun.
Troops In Liu*.
Following a plau-on of police :ame Marshal Doyle and his staff or assistants. Then csurchcd tho Fifteenth infantry U. 3. A., and Batterj L, First artillery, P. S. /. After th-jse came the First, Second and Seventh infantry regiments and buttery P. and Troop A, of the Illinois national guard.
One hundred police officers, led by Chief of Police Brennan, came next, followed by four companies from the lire department Tho Chicago Ilussars presented a fine appearance After the guard of honor, composed of aldermen, and tho honorary pall-bearers had passed, there came tho funeral car, which »was drawn by four ooal-black horses. It was flanked on either side by the active pall-bear-ers, eight captains of police and eight captains of the fire department
The Dead Mayor'* Horse.
Behind it the mayor's favorite horse was led by "Llge" Smith, a colored man who had been long in Mayor Harrison's service. A tiny bit of crepe on the bridle was the only sign of mourning about the animal. Uort Reisberg, the mayor's coachman, walked behind. They took positions near the city hall.
Then followed hundreds of carriages bearing state, county and city officials and ex-officials, members of tho judiciary, and others. A great many civic societies marched also.
In this order tho cortege proceeded up Jackson street to Ashland avenue,
VOL. VII -NO. 342. 0RAWFORDSVILLE, INDIANA, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1893. PRICE 2 CENTS
wheeling then northward and halting at the Church of the Epiphany, where the religious exercises were conducted by Rev. T. N. Morrison, Jr. All along this line of march, almost 8 miles in length, the {people were massed by the tous of thousands. East of the river the streets were jammed. Between the river and Halsted street the utmost efforts of the police were required to keep the center of the roadway clear for the procession. In the vicinity of the church the crowd was tremendous. Ashland boulevard, from Madison street to Van Uure.n street, was crowded to its utmost capacity. As the cortege passed the Harrison homestead the carriages conveying tho members of tho family took their places in the line immediately behind the hearse.
Services In the Church.
111
At the church the casket was carried in by the eight police captains, the honorary pallbearers preceding It Rev. Mr. Morrison read the stately burial service of the EpiBOopal church, and the surpliced choir sang appropriate music. Mr. Morrison delivered an eloquent address, drawing from tho occasion the lesson that all sliouLd bit prepared at all times to meet death. At the conclusion of the servioes the remains were again placed in the hearse and the maroh to Graoeland cemetery was begun.
The Last Suene.
Darkness had fallen when the cortege finally arrived at the cemetery. Rev. Mr. Morrison read the Episcopal service provided for such occasions. The casket was placed in a vault. The crowd dispersed. The bereaved family were left alone, and after a short time they too returned home and the career of Carter H. Harrison was ended. Some time hence the remains will be interred in Grace land. This sad function will be strictly private.
IN THE SENATE.
The Chinese Exclusion Question Causes Atucli Talk. WASHINGTON, NOV 2.—In the senate
on Wednesday resolutions offered by Senator Hill (dem., N. Y.l to amend the rules so as to provide against endless filibustering, and to authorize the presiding offictr to count a quorum present but not voting were referred to tho committee on rules. A memorial from the Red Cross society, asking for an appropriation, of $50,000 for the relief of the sufferers from the recent storm in the sea islands on the coast of South Carolina, was read and action was deferred until to-day.
Senator Gray (detu., Del.) called up the bill amending the act for the exclusion of Chinese from this country. Senator Hawley (rep.. Conn.), asked whether the present bill would satisfy the Chinese authorities. Senator Gray said he could not say definitely.
Senator Hoar (rep., Mass.) offered an amendment to the bill in the nature of a substitute striking out all but the enacting clause. The amendment suspends Chinese immigration pending the settlement of the whole question bv treaty with the Chinese government The substitute also amends the provisions of the existing law regarding registration and the trials of Chinese aliens. Senator Davis (rep. Minn.) also offered a substitute providing for the repeal of all existing laws excluding Chinese immigration.
Senator Palmer (dem.. 111.) took exception to the provision of the bill rejecting the evidence In court of Chinese witnesses. Ho tliousrht such a provision unworthy of our civilization. He also objected to the clause refusingbail to Chineso arrested under provisions of the bill before guilt is established.
Senator Perkins (rep.. Cal.) said the California people weijp not asking for this legislation but were satisfied with the present law. It was the administration and the attorneys of the Chinese who were making the request. Senator Perkins read a letter from the chief of police of San Francisco saying that of the arrests made for crime, except drunkenness, in Sun Francisco, about SO per cent, were from the Chinese inhabitants. He said that not 'JO per cent, of the Chinese in California had been converted to Christianity. He also stated that careful computation reveals that since they began coming to this country in numbers they have taken or sent back to Cliir $810,000,000 of American money.
Senator Squire (rep., Wash.) offered
in
amendmeut appropriating flC0,00'l for th( enforcement during the present I fl .1 year of tho several acts regulatir and prohibiting Chinese immigration.
Senator Frye (rep., Me.) said the Geary law was a dishonor to the country it was morally a crime and commercially a blunder.
Senator Gray attempted to secure unanimous consent that a vote for the pending bill be taken at 4 o'clock today. Senator Hoar objected.
Dropped Dead.
CHICAGO, NOV. 2.—The joyful preparations the Javanese woro malting to return to their native country were brought to a sad close Wednesday night Sanoera, a member of the band, was sitting by the stove in the barracks about 10 o'clock when he suddenly lurched forward and fell to the floor.

Provision® of the Measure.
The bill as passed is as follows: "That so much of the set approved July 14, 1890, entitled 'An act directing the purchase of silver bullion and Issue of treasury notes thereon and for other purposes,' and directing the secretary of the treasury to purchase from time to time stiver bullion to the aggregate amount of 4,530,000 ounces, or so much thereof as may be offered In each month at the market price thereof, not exceeding one dollar for 371 *5-100 grains of pure silver, and to issue in payment for such purchases treasury notes of the United Slates, be and the same Is hereby repealed. "And it is horeby declared to be the policy of the United States to oontinue the use of both gold and silver as standard money, and to coin both gold and silver into money of equal intrinsic and exchangeable value, such caualltv to be secured through international agreement, or by such safeguards of legislation as will insure the maintenance of parity in value of coins of the two motals, and the equal power of every dollar at all times In the markets and in tho payment of debts. And it is hereby further declared that the efforts of the government should be steadily dlreoted to the establishment of suoh a safe system of bimetallism as will maintain at all times the equal power of every dollar coined or Issued by the United States In the markets and in the payment of debts." tlow the Knri Was Reached.
When the house took up the Voorhees bill for discussion, Mr. Bland declined the offer of Mr. Wilson to allow one, two, or three hours' debate after the previous question, and further refused to enter into any agreement whatever that did not leave the repeal bill open for general debate and amendment. Mr. Wilson then demanded the previous questiou.
Dilatory Tactic*.
Mr. Bryan (Neb.) on behalf of silver men. at once moved to adjourn and demanded a division. The motion was defeated—yeas, 20, nays 108. The silver men then moved a recess until 8 o'clock, but this was also defeated on a division.
The Previous Question Ordered.
At 1:15 a filibustering motion had been lost and Mr. Livingstone (Ga.) was making an appeal to his colleagues to desist. Both Mr. Bryan and Mr. Snodgrass were listening to the Georgian instead of renewing their filibustering motions. This left the pending question the motion to order the previous question. The filibusters were thrown off their guard. The speaker put the motion and it was carried with a roar of assent. The filibusters called for a division, but they could not muster enough votes to call the yeas and nays. The bill was then in the arena of debate for the last time, fifteen minntes being allowed on a side under the rules.
A Few I«ast Words.
Mr. isnodgrass (Tenn.), who had been assisting the filibusters, made a motion to adjourn, but the speaker said he had recognized Mr. Wilson. Mr. Wilson then asked Mr. Bland to consume the fifteen minutes^ to which the silver side was entitled, and Mr. Bland began his address. Mr. Bland created a sensation by declaring that the extra session, and this who!* legislation, had been thrust upon the people as a stock jobbing speculation.
The Plniil Actlui,.
Aftersevcral other speeches were made Mr. Hlaud moved to recommit the bill as amended by the senate to the coinage committee, with instructions to report back to the house with an amendment to revive the law of 1887 providing for free coinage. The yeas and nays were ordered. Mr. Bland's motion was defeated: Yeas, 1011 nays, 175.
The senate's amendment to the repeal bill was then concurred in—yeas, 191 navs, 94.
