The funeral cortege moved east from the City Hall and courthouse to MIch'pran avenue; alon that thoroughfare to Jackson street and thr-n due w t-st to Ashland boulevard. In the down-town streets the crowds were so prrcat that the police were at times corrpelli to force a. pa-ssacje way for the procession and even Jackson boulevard on tho west side was thronged with people eager to witness the last honors being paid the city's dead chb-f magistrate. On reaching Ashland boulevard the lino turned north and proceeded to the Fplphany Protestant Kpiscopal Church on the corner of Adams street and the boulevard. When the funeral car arrived oijMsite the church the line was halted and the casket was raised by the pallbearers and carried into the sanctuary. -The crowd on Ashland boulevard and Adams street at this time numbered many thousands. It extended in an almost solid mas for two or three blocks on either side of the church. The difficulty of making a passage way through the cortege th it had been encountered in the down-town streets was repeated. AT THE CHURCH. Shortly after 10:30 the ushers began to admit those entitled to seats in the church. Director-general Davis was one of the iirst to enter. He was alone and took his seat In the center of the church. Soon after General Miles and staff appeared in full dress uniforms. Then came the members of the national commission of. the world's fair and friends of the family who bore cards of admission. Organist Goer took his place before the procession arrived and the Ftrcams of Chopin's funeral march swept through the church ami died away as an occasional mourner entered softly, stole up the nisle and took his seat. All were waiting for the arrival of the cortege. Within the fTtat church no attempt at decoration was made. Behind the pulpit two vases of white chrysanthemums were placed, but no other llowers or crepe were to be seen. Only the softened sunlight streaming through the stained glass windows fell upon the floor and lent a touch of color to the solemn scene. At 12:30 the solemn strains of a funeral march were heard, and the parade came in fight. Slowly the long line tiled down Ashland avenue past the church. From the doorway to the steps a matting was spread, end this was covered with flowers, roses and chrysanthemums. The honorary pallbearers alighted from their carriages and formed on the lawn before the church. The catafalque drew up to the walk, and while every head in the vast throng was uncovered the casket was tenderly lifted out end bcrna Into the church. Up the center aisle, with slow steps, the pallbearers moved and set down their burden before tbe rail. Close beside lay a pillow of chrysanthemums, the gift of the German commissioners at the fair. The solemn strains of "Beethoven's funeral march sounded from the organ, and the sumllced choir arose. Closely following the pallbearers the Council, city oftlcials and County Commissioners took their seats on the north side of the church. The family had entered the chuch by a side door and taken their places. When the mourners were, seated Dr. Morrison opened the funeral service with prayer. Then the sweet voices of the choir boys were heard in "Nearer, my God, to Thee." In the addrers following Dr. Mcrrison paid a. touching tribute to the dead ilayor, vhem he had known well for many years. Again the choir fang "What Are These with White Robes." Then follow fed the reading of the funeral service, the Messing and the solemn song, "Iead Kindly Iaght." A sad scene occurred wh-m the chief mourners moved out to the nrriages. Mi-s Annie Howard, who had endured the strain of the services with remarkable fortitude, pave way completely and burst into violent weeping when the portal.3 cf the chtirrh had been passed. Her whole frame trembled with the force of ner emotion, while her passionate sobs moved the hearts of all who stood near. Sympathetic friends assisted her to her carriage, and she was driven to the Harrison reslchnv?. Here her strength seemed to fail her comol ;t?ly, an 1 she would have sunk to the pavjuent as Fhe attempted to walk to the house had not her friends supported her. When within the houue her tears burst anew And the soothing of anxious friends was unavailing. Throwing hersrolf Into a chair, the desolate woman gave complete sway to an agony of grief. The bitterness of her sorrow at last spent its power, and loving hands carried her to her room and a much-needed rest. Later her condition Improved, and she is thought to be in no danger. Preston Harrison, the Mayor's son. was overcome during the services and fainted, but was soon revived with stimulants. At the close of the services the procession was reformed and proceeded to Graceland. At the cemetery the procession was disbanded, and the various bodies returned down town as individual organizations. Owing to the magnitude of the procession it did not reach Grace land Cemetery until f o'clock, and the services were concluded twenty minutes later. The remains were plii-vd i:i a vault in Mortuary' Chapel, where they will remain some time. Tolled the Hell. CINCINNATI. ().. Nov. 1.

MATABELES ROUTED

KiugLobengula and His Impis Put to Flight by the British. Bulawayo, the South African Monarch's Stronghold, in the Hands of the Colonial Forces. 3,000 OF THE NATIVES SLAIN Mowed Down by Deadly Machine - Guns and Repeating Rifles. British Loss Reported to Be Very Small English Aggressions in Tangier to Be Checked. LONDON, Nov. 1. A dispatch from Cape Town Fays that the troops under the command of Major Forbes and Dr. Jameson, administrator of the British South African Company, hava occupied Uulawayo after Feveral fights, In which the Matabeles suffered heavy losses. The first fish tins occurred between Hoik? Fountain and Bulawayo, whore the Matabeles had concentrated in force. Tiio Matabele3 were armed probably with their native weapons assegais and knot-korries although some of them had rifles that proved of little service to them. The natives fought bravely and made desperate attempts to get within striking distance of the British. The latter, however, with the superior arms and their Gatlinj? guns, were able to keep them from getting in dangerously close quarters. During one of the fights Major Forbes's column made an onslaught on the Matabeles, destroying half a regiment, numbering several hundred natives. The British loss In all these engagements was small. No stand was made at Bulawayo, and all the people living at the kraal joined the fleeing army, the courVe of which was northward along ths foot cf the Matappo hills. It is thought the Matabeles will make for the Zambesi river or for the comparatively uninhabited country to the westward of the Umalatl river. The Imperial troops took no part In the fighting. They followed Major Forbss and Dr. Jameson to Bulawayo, arriving there some time after the advance columns had taken possession of the place. King Lobegula accompanied his regiments In their flight northward. At the head of the remnants of his loyal impls he is retreating towards the Zambesi river, pursued by a column of the British colonial troops. No details are given as to the loss of life, but the colonists are not believed to have suffered seriously. Official dispatches received this evening from Cape Town confirm the reports that the Chartered Company's troops have defeated the Matabeles In several fights, have put Lobengula to flight and have occupied Bulawayo. The official account says, moreover, that Major Gould Adams's column was engaged with the Matabeles and after the capture of Bulawayo it joined Major Forbes's troops. The Daily News protests against the home government allowing Rhodes to settle the trouble with the Matabeles as the Cape government suggests. The Xaws has this news from Fort Victoria: "All the advancing columns had a share in the skirmishing. Their passing was necessarily slew. The Matabeles were wary and cautious, but for days Forbes's and Jameson's columns kept In touch with them. .On Friday a Matabele imp! opened a determined attack uin Major Forbes's column. The tight was vigorously sustained, but the enemy were unable to make any impression upon the whites, who held their position In Laager. The Matabeles were mowed down on all sides and linally retired with very heavy losses. Fresh impis resumed the attack on Saturday, Major Forbes and the combination columns being then within a few miles of Bulawayo. The blacks fought with great bravery, but, in the face of machine guns and improved rifles, were never able to get within striking distance. Finally the attack weakened and the Matabeles showed signs of retreat. The Maxims played on their dense masses, and the whites lnctantly rushed on the wavering warriors. One royal imbezzi regiment attempted to stand Its ground. Half Its men were shot down, and the remainder fled back to Bulawayo. In this practically decisive battle Lobengula himself commanded, personally directing the movements of his head men. The forward movement of troops was decided upon before Lobengula had time to rally his men. The combined columns opened the attack on Bulawayo. There was but little light left in the Matabeles, who lied to the north. The leading colu nn v.-a 3 sent In pursuit to prevent their rallying, a.' though Dr. Jameson and Major Forbes lelleve them beaten and cowed. Lobsngula's power is utterly gone. The losses cf the British were slight, and were confined mafnly to Major Forbes's column. The loss of the Matabeles Is reported to exceed three thousand killed and wounded. The imperial forces under Maj. Gould Adams reached Bulawayo the day after the fighting, and took no part In It. All ihe s-iitlers hope the Matabeles may be driven beyond the Zambesi." DF.XICn BY ROOSCVELT. Sny lie Didn't Contribute $10,f)0 Praise from Iluynrd. LONDON, Nov. 1. The appointment of Mr. - James Roosevelt as secretary of the United States embassy to succeed Mr. Henry White, resigned, has caused quite a commotion in the American colony here. It i3 evident that tho appointment caused equal surprise to Mr. Bayard and other oflicials of .? the United States embassy, where It ..was generally thought that Mr. White wr.3 a lixture, as he had successfully resisted numerous attempts to dislodge him. It was known for Instance that Mr. Blaine had definitely promised the post to a friend of his, and that Mr. White's friends, headed by Chauncey M. Depew, came to his rescue and persuaded President Harrison to overrule Mr. Blaine. This increased the strained relations which already existed between Mr. B!alne and Mr. Harrison, according to the story toid here. Mr. Bayard, In an Interview to-day. said that it was quite untrue that Mr. White had been puprrseded owir.g to strained relations between himself and Mr. White. "The relations between Mr. White and mKclf," continued Mr. Bayard, "have always been imst kind. Changes must occur, as we lvive no permanent diplomatic service. Mr. Itoosovelt wan selected to succeed Mr. White because of his fitness to do sj. I know nothl i:: about the statements made in the United States, but I know that Mr. Koosevelt has always ben identified with o;;r party, and that he has always taken a prominent part In Its affairs in New York. He is one of the best known men In New York and has great experience, having represented u?j ;is secretary and charge d'affaires at Vienna. I consider the appointment a most natural one and regret to s.iy that ho has a tcreat r.orrow hanging over him In the illncja of Mrs. Roosevelt, hn wife, who Is living In a house a few miles outside of Ascot, and not many miles from where I was staying before I came to town." T.-ie residence of Mr. Roosevelt, the new secretary of the United States embassy, is known as Heathflelds. It is a large house, a few miles from Ascot, and Is beautifully situated on Its own grounds near the cele

brated race course. A reporter called at Heathflelds thl3 afternoon. Mr. Roosevelt was asked if he wished to make any answer to the statements published In the United States to the effect that he had not voted, and that, he contributed the sum of Jl 0,000 to the Cleveland campaign fund. To these statements Mr. Roosevelt replied: "The statements referred to are untrue. I regret that I cannot see you for a long time, owing to my wife's illness: but, in the meanwhile, the Associated Press can make an emphatic denial of the charges rofetred to." Mr. Bayard would not say anythlntr further regarding the removal of Mr. White, but he evidently Is surprised by the change as much as were the other members of the United States embassy and the whole American colony in this city. HAXDS OFF TANGIER. British AKKreKAlnnn May He Checkmated hy Hunftln, France uml Spain. PARIS, Nov. 1. The explorer Soller, In an interview published to-day, intimates that the Grand Duke Alexis, of Russia, has arranged a treaty between France, Russia and pain, by the terms of which the latter'.; ultimate occupation of Tangier Is provided for. It is added that even should this last mentioned portion of the treaty fail to take effect, that the powers have determined that British occupation of Tangier must be prevented at any cost. Several of the newspapers of this city and other Important parts of France join In declaring that Kurope cannot afford to allow England to occupy and hold the key to the Mediterranean, and these newspapers continue by urging the government to Immediately dispatch a powerful French squadron to Tangier In order to support Spain against any interference upon the part of Great Britain in the disturbances about Melllla, and to enable the French to be In a position to checkmate any attempt upon the part of Kngland to land troop3 In Morocco. In fact, it Is intimated that it Is the plain duty of Franco to take the initial step should any Interference be necessary upon the part of any other power than Spain in Ihe affairs of Morocco, and It is also urged that the presence of this French squadron at Tangier might be used to force the Sultan to take steps to support the Spanish troops against the Moors now surrounding Meliila, In cny case it Is Intimated that Soain should Insist that the Sultan of Morocco take immediate action against the Moors, and that when the latter have finally been driven away from the heights surrounding Melllla, that the Spanish government must Insist upon a heavv indemnity for the loss of life sustained In the engagements In Morocco, and that the Sultan should be compelled to pay the cost of all the war preparations and other expenses to which the Spanish government has been put through the revolt of the Moors.

NEW YORK, Nov. l.-Six more United States merchant steamers have been purchased by the government of Brazil for use as war ships the powerful El Rio, of the Morgan line, and the Advance.

Electric Gar Goes Through a Draw-Bridge at Portland, Ore. Seven Persons Drowned or Killed School Children Tossed and Gored by a Steer at St. Louis. TORTLAND, Ore., Nov. l.-A frightful accident occurred at 6:30 o'clock this morning when an electric car of the Esat Side Railroad Company, containing fifteen people, plunged through the draw of Madisonstreet bridge into the river, twenty-five feet below. Five bodies have been recovered, and it is believed two others are still In the liver. The bodies recovered are those of Charles Beckman, J. P. Anderson, Joseph Startler, Alexander Campbell, T. Bcnnlck, a deaf mute. Those missing are Taul Oder and a boy named Albe. The draw of the bridge had been opened to allow the steamer Klwood to pass through. The gates at both ends of the draw were closed, but the car crashed through the rail gate and plunged off th'i end of tho bridge. The morning was extremely foggv, and it was impossible for the motorman to see the danger lights on the bridge until a short distance from the draw. The track was very slippery, owing to frost, and the brakes would not work effectively. Motorman C. V. Terry gives the following version of the accident: "When the car was nearing the bridge the power was thrown off and the car approached the draw at a low rate of speed. The fog was so heavy that I was unable to see the lights at the draw. When about four spans from the draw I put on the brakes, but owing to the slippery condition of the track they refused to work, and I had no sand. When within one span of the draw I reversed the car, but the momentum was so great that it was of no avail. Seeing that it was impossible to avoid an accident I Jumped, catching the railing of the bridge just as the car crashed through the wooden gate in front of the chasm." Conductor W. C. Pofer states he was standing on the front of the car making out his report. When he saw the danger the car was but a few feet from the gate. He shouted to the passengers to jump and a scramble followed. GORED I1Y A STEKR, A Wild Tcxnn llenst Plays Havoc In the Streets of St. Louis. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. ST. LOUIS, Nov. 1. A wild Texas steer escaped from a pen on Howard street and Jefferson avenue this afternoon and ran amuck on the crowded streets. At Eighteenth street and Washington avenue the steer dashed into a crowd of school children. Grade Mann was tossed in the air, caught on the horns and again tossed, luckily escaping with slight bruises. John Kelly, a painter, and an unknown negro were next attacked and both tossed. An unknown man and boy were then knocked over at Twelfth street and Washington avenue, and at the same place a mnn and woman were tossed to the sidewalk. At Fourteenth and Carr streets oflicer Tierney ran to the side of the now maddened animal and fired Into him. The brute turned on the officer and gored him severely from the left knee to the thigh. By this time a dozen officers surrounded the steer and filled him with lead. His career would have ended sooner but for the fact that a thousand people had joined in the chase and it was dangerous to shoot. All of the wounded were Injured more or less. Ifnturnl Gnu Explosion.

MILWAUKEE, Wis., Nov. 1. -Carter L. James, the well-known Anarchist litterateur of Eau Claire, to-day received a, certified manuscript copy of the manifesto adopted at the international Anarchist congress, which was held secretly in the Times DulldIng, in Chicago, Sept. 30 last. The manifesto was to have been published only In an Eastern Anarchist organ called Solidarity," which is printed at uncertain peiicds, but the corre3iondent secured a copy, and here It Is: "The time has come when those who profess the doetrlnes of anarchy must no longer leave the statement of these doctrines to those whose malice and ignorance lead them to misrepresent them. In proving ourselves Anarchists we claim the right to determine what we mean by anarchy, a right which no fair minded person avIII v Whe:. the government of the United States was first founded, it was thought that the form adopted would Insure to the people the enjoyment of the natural rights proclaimed In tne Declaration of Independence.

Labor is declared to be the producer of all wealth, and therefore entitled to the fruits of its production. The abolition of all government u demanded as the only panacea of all existing evils. The occupancy of land Is declared to be the only warrant for its possession. The letter goes on to comment on the vast centralization of wealth, and continues: "Every act of the government ha3 been tainted by the foulest corruption and favoritism. The police have supressed free speech when raised In protest against these Injustices. Hireling bands of assassins In the pay of private corporations have been brought Into service with the consent of the authorities to suppress resistance to the mandates of these masters. The militia and the regular soldiers have been freely used for the same purpose and ne'er for any other. The courts, by reason of the costs, delays and intricacies of litigation, are practically closed a era Inst the poor, while they are a mcst efficient engine of oppression In the hands of th? rich.

NEW YORK, Nov. l.-The Fleetwood Park managers expect a large crowd nt their track to-morrow afternoon, when the big trotting match between Directum and Mascot will take place, and have made extra arrangements accordingly. Many people from out of town, as far away as Buffalo, Pittsburg and Detroit, arrived In the city to-nlht, wdth the Intention of seeing that race and nothing else, and v.dll be on hand early, together with the crowd that will flock across the Harlem from New Y'ork and Brooklyn. At the up-town hotels, where sporting men congregate, the match is easily the chief topic of talk, and it is pretty sure that a large number of the usual habitues of the running meeting at Elizabeth will be abs?nt from that course to-morrow. The track at Fleetwood has been subjected to special preparation, which has been in progress for several days, and the weather indications to-night are that the conditions will be nigh perfect. The sky is clear and starry, and the wind, which Is light, is from the southwest, indicating fair and warmer weather for the great event. The horses have had the most careful preparations, and in their trial trots have done all was asked them. Their handlers report that both animals are in perfect condition,and, barring accidents, the better horse will certainly win, it is expected. There has not been any betting to speak of to-night, but in what there has been Directum has had the call. Mascot has hrm friends, however, though they may be in a minority,' and they will probably 3tand ready to accept any odds, if not even money to-morrow afternoon. The Directum contingent have their opinion based on their favorite's trial on Monday, when Kelly drove him at about a 2:12 pace, by order of Monroe Salisbury, and finished in 2:11, with plenty to spare, after having urjred him hard only in the last twenty yards. Fiying Jib was his companion in the spin, and that horse was tolerated at close quarters until the distance from home mentioned, when Directum was shot out ahead and landed the distance over two lengths ahead. Everybody says that the match will be the most sensational one that ever took place In harness. There Is $3,000 at stake. Between the heats there will be trots bv double teams. Salisbury will send Little Albert and Charlie C to beat the record of 2:12s;. Major Dickinson's Aublne and Zembia will undertake to lower the Fleetwood track record of 2:1CU and Matthew Itlley's Reference and Clayton will be driven to beat their own best time of 2:19!.

The decision has been made against starting any of Doble's horses at the record meeting tomorrow. Dr. Hollenbeck and Charles Doble agreed that it would not be wise to do so. The frost in the track has made it somewhat slow and as It was known. that Doble did not want to make another failure 1A attempting to lower the records of Nancy Hanks, Arlon, Stamboul, Manager, and Monbars, he was wired as to the outlook. He In turn left the question with his assistants here and the decision Is as staled above. This means in ail probability that Nancy Hanks has made her last mile at tho top of her speed. She and Arion will be shipped to Mr Forbes's farm this week where Nancy will be bred to the $125,000 Arion next spring. It is thought by good judges that Nancy has seen her best days as a record breaker, even if she were not to retire for breeding purposes. She Is not strong and none but Doble could have kept her at her best up to this time. Her forelegs have begun to show signs of weakness. Trot Hn:? in Kentncy. DANVILLE, Ky., Nov. 1.

Something That Indicate n Strange Influence in the Antral "World. New Y'ork Herald. Many railroad men have a superstition that one fatal collision or other serious railway wreck Is sure to be followed quickly by two similar accidents. Some philosophers, noting the number of times in wulch this superstition is verified, have evolved a theory that carelessness, neglect or stupidity causing disasters is epidemic. They believe that just as the body is subject to disease like smallpox, cholera and yellow fever, which spread through whole communities, the mind of man becomes atlllcted with intellectual and moral weakness, extending to a number of people simultaneously. The theory receives a considerable Impetus from such deeds as the murder of Mayor Harrison, of Chicago; the thrsat to take the life of Mr. Gould, and the mortal wounding of Mi'. Matthes In the I'ostal Telegraph Company's building. One besotted brain conceives and executes a murder, lake the action of tuning forks of the same pitch, all of which will sound when one is vibrated, a number of weak and wicked minds seemed Instantly impelled to kill somebody. truch affairs, with our i-esent knowledge of the human heart und Intellect, can neither be seen nor prevented. Their occurrence Is not a reason for condemning the law or the servants of the law. Here in New York our policemen are alert and coi ageous to suppress attempts at riot, murder and other open forma of lawlessness. Anarchy deserves and meets with short shrift at their hand:-. But the individual crank, who is apparently sane up to the moment he takes the Hft3 of some unsuspecting fellow man, presents a problem whose solution lies far deeper than the powers of the most efficient police force in the world. It is reasonable to believe, however, that even this variety of human pest would exercise suitfclent self-control to avoid actual murder if he knew that swift and inexorable punishment would follow his crime. So far we now know the certainty of a dreaded penalty Is the only means of discouraging the army of cranks who are liable to be set In murderous activity by such an act as that of l'rendergast in Chicago. The Fair Will Have Xo IUvnln. Philadelphia North American. The climax has been reached The possibilities of accomplishment along this line of human endeavor have been exhausted. No European nation v.Ml undertake to rival, much less to excel, the exploit which in now passing into history, and hereafter the probabilities are that International exhibitions while sure to take place from time to time will be specialized, will be contlned to t. e illusti'a'l Jii of a singie department of art or Industry, and that the gigantic task of presenting tho whole sum of human activity In one great aggregation of examples will not be attempted aain.
