' ROYAL SIDE BY SIDE THEY LIE II EM A INS OP JOUX SHERMAN PLACED WITH. TnOSB OP HIS WIFE. Brief Funeral Serrloea at the' Maus11 eld Church and the Body Then Taken to the Cemetery. ATTENDED BY MANY PEOPLE PRESIDENT MCKINLEY, SECRETARY OP WAR ROOT AND OTHERS. Body Escorted from the Train tolhe Church and Later to the Cemetery by Civil War Veteran. MANSFIELD. O., Oct. 25. From the quaint little, Episcopal Church where as a youth he worshiped, John Sherman, the statesman, was buried here to-day. Up the narrow aisle which through the Ions years he led as a vestryman the remains of the former United States senator and Cabinet member were carried to the chancel, where. In a casket of black surmounted and hedged about with a sea of floral tributes, they rested from shortly before II o'clock until nearly 3, when they were removed with simple, tender ceremony to their last resting place in the Sherman family vault In the cemetery here. Mansfield did honor to her departed foremost citizen. Every business house wa3 draped in mourning, every church was open and the streets were thronged with sorrowing thousands, including delegations from Washington, Cleveland and near-by cities and towns. The day was clear and bright. The funeral procession wended its way from the union station, where It was formed with President McKinley in the place of honor, to the Grace Episcopal Church. The train bearing the distinguished dead and those who escorted the body from the national capital arrived at 10:16 a. m. Awaiting were Mayor Brown and a citizens' committee of Ive, a squad of police and two companies of state militia, which did service In the Spanish war. Close by the car which contained the catafalque, and which was heavily draped, were fortytwo' members of General Sherman's brigade, all old men, gray and bent. As President McKinley, leaning on the mayor's arm, stepped from his private car. the Olympia, every man in the crowd at the depot raised his hat, as did the President, and stood bareheaded until the casket containing the body of former Secretary Sherman was removed to the, hearse. Then without dirge or other sound of mourning the funeral cortege slowly proceeded to the church. The body was borno between two files of members of Sherman's brigade and double tiles of members of the sjajunioA ojho quiSir Ireeedlng the hearse were the carriages tearing the party from Washington. In the firs; were President McKinley. Secretary of War Root, Representative Kerr, of this city, and Secretary to the President Cortclyou. The lresldent did not enter the church when the remains were first laid in state, but proceeded to tho roldenee of Mr. Krr, where, with other members of tho Washington party and members of the Sherman family, he partook of luncheon, remaining there until the lormal service at the church, which began at 2:30 p. m Between lines of rpectators, among whom were many who had known the deceased the greater part of his life, the casket was carried into the church by eight policemen an J escorted by tho honorary pallbearer Gen. Nekson A. Miles, 1. T. Sherman, Alfred W. Hoyt. William MeCord. Charles A. Sherman. Colgate Hoyt, John Sherman Hoyt and Frank II. Wlborg. The altar was decorated in white at the request of the family, and the robe of the oihclattng rector, tho Rev. A. B. Putnam, was of white also. As the rector - chanted a brief ritualistic rite a proce??ion. heaued by Governor Nash, of Ohio, filed by to look upon the face of the deceased. During the Mjcceedlng hour the crowds came and went with noiseless tread, occasionally bringing adltions to the profusion of floral offerings. Among the latter were a large wreath of white roses from the White House, the gift of th& McKinley family. Thrc was a tall shaft of roses from the eltv of Mansfield, a law boo'c wrought of Trhlt roses and carnations from the local bar association, a wreath from the Loyal Lerion, another from the survivors of Sheridans brl-ade and many others.

All these were present when Mayor Brown and a committee of citizens greeted President McKinley at the depot. Senator Hanna and Major Henry C. Hedges arrived an hour later from Chicago. After the exercises at the church the cortege moved up Main street to the cemetery, a mile distant. At Central Park the procession passed under an Immense arch of mourning on which was emblazoned in gilt letters, "The Nation's Loss." Heading the column was the Mansfield band, with white plumed helmets and just behind them the Eighth Ohio Volunteers. In a carriage near that occupied by President McKinley were three men who were delegates to the first convention that nominated John Sherman for Congress in 1S54 M. L. Miller, Nelson Ozier and Jacob Hade, all of this city. At the cemetery the services were brief, consisting of ritualistic readings and a chant. Mr. Sherman's remains were then placed beside those of his wife, who died last spring. President McKinley returned to Canton at midnight. Senator Hanna and Major Hedges took the Pennsylvania train for Chicago. The Sherman homestead, only two squares from the church, was occupied by the various members of the family, who received the condolence of many friends. Tribute to Sherman Memory. COLUMBUS, O., Oct. 25. The Republican campaign in Ohio was at a standstill to-day as a tribute of respect to the memory of John Sherman, whose funeral took place at Mansfield this afternoon. The order by Secretary Dick, of the Republican state executive committee, is regarded as unique in the political annals of Ohio, but all meetings were either declared off or postponed, and the political opponents of the i.. had tho field to themselves for the day. The state officials left" Columbus at 7:20 a. m. for Mansfield to attend the funeral. The speakers who were to have held meetings in the State to-day also very generally went to Mansfield. The state offices in the Capitol building were closed during the afternoon. A LETTER FK0M HARRISON. The Ex-President Writes on Politics to a Baltimore Man. Baltimore American. Mr. John V. L. Findlay has Just received a letter from ex-President Harrison in which he expresses the hope that Mr. Findlay's expectation of Maryland going Republican will be realized. On the Philippine question he sent also a copy of his speech at the fifth annual banquet of the American Chamber of Commerce, in Paris on tho Fourth of July. iyy, with this paragraph marked: "It is too late to debate the question whether I, might not have been wiser to have made our campaign In the Philippines purely a naval campaign, or the other 'question whether destiny or our own choice Involved us there. We have assumed responsibility towards the peaceable people there, towards Spain and towards the world, and we must establish crrier os a necessary preliminary to the consideration of any question as to the ultimate destiny or disposition of the archipelago." "This." Mr. Kindlay says, "has a very different ring from the preposterous suggestion of Bryan, that we must establish Aguinaldo in place and keep him there against all assaults from within and without, from domestic treason and foreign levy, until he Is able to take care of himself a species of knight errantry, to call it by no harsher name, that will receive no countenance from the hard common sene of the American people." ' Mr. Findlay never had any doubt of General Harrison's desire to see Bryanlsm put down and the Republican ticket elected, and knew that certain newspapers were deliberately misrepresenting him when they alleged the contrary, and this letter now puts the question to rest. Mr. Findlay also repeated that Aguinaldo Is Bryan's running mate in more senses than one, and that the defeat of Bryan would be the defeat of Aguinaldo. who is only fighting now with the hope that his colleague will be elected and that he will carry out the promises he has made.
GROWTH OF THE CITIES CENSUS REPORT OX TOWNS OP OVER 23.000' INHABITANTS." There Are 15!) Such Places in the Country Most Striking: ChnnReStntc with No Large Town. WASHINGTON, Oct. 23. The Census Bureau, In a bulletin Issued to-day, summarizes the returns of population of cities having 25,000 inhabitants or more In 1900, the Individual census of each of these cities having been officially announced heretofore. There are 1Z0 of these and the bulletin shows that the percentage of increase in their population from 1S90 to 1900 was 32.5 aa against 49.5 for the same cities in the previous decade. The absolute increase in the population of these cities from 1SD0 to 1900 was 4,839,136, or 82,426 less than the absolute Increase from 18S0 to 1SD0, rvhen It was 4,921,562. The 159 cities combined have a population in 1900 of 19,634,625 against 14.855.4S9 In 1S90 and 9,933,927 in 1SS0. Of these 159 cities, divided into four classes, nineteen had 200,000 and over; nineteen had over 100,000 and under 200,000; forty had over 50,000 and under lOO.OuO, and eighty-one had 25,000 or over and under 50,000. In 1SS0 there were but twenty cities which contained more than 100,000 inhabitants, but in 1S90 this number had Increased to twenty-eight, and in 1900 to thirty-eight. In 1900 there are seventy-eight cities of 50,000 inhabitants or more as compared with fiftyeight in 1S90 and thirty-five in 1SS0. The combined population in 1900 of the nineteen cities of the first class is 11,193.809, as against u population in 1S90 of 8.879,105, representing an increase during the ten years of 2.916.704. or 32.8 rer cent. The same cities showed an Increase from 1SS0 to 1S90 of 2,567,432, or 40.6 per cent. The nineteen cities of the first class comprise New York, which, with more than 3,000,000 inhabitants, properly stands by itself; two cities, Chicago and Philadelphia, each of which has a population In excess of 1,000.000; three cities, St. Louis, Boston and Baltimore, which have a population of EO0.OUO each; five cities, Cleveland, Buffalo, San Francisco, Cincinnati and Pittsburg, which have a population of between 300.000 and 400,000 each, and eight cities, New Orleans, Detroit, Milwaukee, Washington, Newark (N. J.), Jersey City (N. J.), Louisville and Minneapolis, which have a population of between 200,000 and 300.000 each. New York, under the act of consolidation which became effective Jan. 1, 1&98, has gitjwn to be a city of very nearly 3.500,000 inhabitants In 1900, as- compared with a population for what was formerly New York city of a little more than 1,500.000 in 1S90, and of substantially 1,200,000 in 1SS0. The population of the territory now comprised within the present limits of New York was approximately 2,500,000 in 1S90 and 1,900.000 in I.). It is the premier city of the country In point of population, a position which it has uniformly held at each decennial census since and including 1790. Chicago, with practically 1.700.000 Inhabitants, and Philadelphia with not quite 1,300,000 inhabitants, hold the second and third places in 1900. the same as in lü'JO. aMhouh at the census of 10 their positions wera reversed, Philadelphia then having very nearly 850,000 Inhabitants, as compared with not much more than 500,000 for Chicago. St. Louis, Boston and Baltimore, the next largest cities, have not changed their relative rank in l!Ko. Cleveland and Buffalo have both increased materially in population during the last ten years, and now take precedence ov-r San Francisco and Cincinnati, which in 1MW were the seventh and eighth places in point of population. Pittsburg also shows a large increase In population since I&h) and Is now the eleventh largest city ir. the country, having exchanged places with New Orleans. The following-named States and Territories In 1IKJ0 do not contain any city with a population of 25,900 or more: Arizona, Idaho, Indian Territory, Mississippi. Nevada, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota. Oklahoma. South Dakota, Vermont any Wyoming. Of the whole number of cities having 23,000 inhabitants or more In It! seventy are found in the North Atlantic division, fortyeight in the North Central division, eighteen in the South Central division, twelve In the Western division and eleven m the South Atlantic division. Massachusetts has the largest number of such cities, namely, twenty, and is followed by Pennsylvania with eighteen and New York with twelve. The most significant growth of cities is that for the three cities in the State of Washington, namely, Seattle. Spokane and Tacoma. These three cities combined had only 4.9SI inhabitants in 1SS0. but their population had increased to ifS,765 in 1S90, and to 155.2U3 in 1900, the increase during the past decade being equivalent to B7.1 per cent. Nebraska is the only State In which the combined population of the cities contained therein shows a decrease from 1S20 to 1200.
THE RAILROAD MEN
REPUBLICAN CLIll HAS HEADQUARTERS IX THE 3IAJESTIC. It I Understood That a Large MaJority of Railroad Employe Are Agnlast Dryan. ACTIVE WORK TOR J. H. CLARK HE IS A CANDIDATE FOR STATE REPRESENTATIVE. Third Assistant Postmaster General Madden In the City l'olltical Gossip of Interest. For several weeks the Railroad Men's Republican Club has maintained headquarters in the Majestic building where considerable work is being done in the interests of the Republican ticket The railroad' men have a candidate J. II. Clark who hopes to occupy a seat in the House of Representatives at the coming session, and they are naturally exerting themselves in his interests, not losing sight of the fact, however, that it Is Important that the whole Republican ticket should go through. It Is announced that the Railroad Men's Republican Club now numbers about 2,300 men. Of this number at least two thousand will support the entire Republican ticket, it is asserted. The other three hundred will all vote for Mr. Clark and other Republican candidates, but It is not certain, of course, that they will support the entire ticket, because they have always been Democrats. Some of them may support the Democratic national candidates. It is said there are about 8,000 railroad employes In Marlon county and how this army of workers will vote Is a source of some curiosity to the leaders of both political parties. One of the men at headquarters asserted yesterday that there need bo no fear of the railroad men of Marion county this campaign, any more than there was In 180Ö, when they were generally in favor of the Republican candidates. The Democrats have established "railroad headquarters" In Morrison's Hall and have twi men In charge. It is claimed by those In charge of the Republican headquarters that the men over at Democratic headquarters , have caused them a great deal of trouble by circulating stories to the effect that certain railroad men who voted for McKinley in 1S96, are "off" this year and will probably vote for Bryan. "'They have kept us busy running down these stories," said one Republican at railroad headquarters yesterday, "and In each Instance except one, we have found no foundation for these stories. The Republican leaders of Indiana need have no fear about the railroad men. They stand where they did In 1SD6. .As to the exception spoken of concerning the stories of railroad men being 'off I am not right sure that this man will not support McKinley." MR. WALDO'S LETTER. At the headquarters of the Railroad Men's Republican Club. a letter is exhibited which was written by C. G. Waldo, general manager of the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton Railway Company, to II. D. Harris, president of the club. Among other things Mr. Waldo says: "I know that much was said in .the. public press during the campaign of 1&6" ab'dut1 the' manner in which railroad employes were being coerced by their officials Into voting for McKinley. 1 do not believe, however, that there was any ground for such statements. So far as our own road was concerned, I know that no employe was ever coerced into voting in any other way than his Judgment dictated, and that no employe of this company ever lost his position by reason of exercising his inalienable right to vote, as his conscience dictated. I personally am in sympathy with and shall vote for the Republican ticket, because I believe it is lor the best interests of the country, and the continuance of the business prosperity which we have enjoyed during the last four years, that McKinley should be re-elected I hope and believe that when the votes are counted on Tuesday, Nov. 6, William J. Bryan and his forty-eight-cent dollar will be buried so deep that neither will ever be resurrected." Edwin C. Madden, third assistant postmaster general, who is at the Bates, and who has been closely In touch with railroad men for many years, is of opinion that the railroad men of the country will pretty generally support the Republican ticket. "From what I have observed," he says, "my belief is that the men who run the trains the engineers, conductors and trainmen generally will vote for McKinley." Mr. Madden was for many years a locomotive engineer and says he owes his appointment to the efforts of railroad men in his behalf. In every city he visits he meets many railroad men not In a political way, but socially and he hears much talk and speculation about the probable result of the election, lie makes an eflort to meet railroad men, regardless of their political affiliations. SENDING OUT AN ADDRESS. From the headquarters of the Railroad Men's Republican Club they are sending out an address to railroad men, giving a list, among other things, of the railroad men appointed to Important positions by President McKinley. Edwin C. Madden, third assistant postmaster general, ts among the list. In commenting on the list the address says: "The brothers mentioned have actually served many years as switchmen, brakemen, conductors, firemen or engineers. Under no other administration in the history of American politics have the railroad men received such merited recognition of their craft. It is proper that just now when the air is filled with the promises of a certain candidate, representing a party which cannot point zo a single instance wherein It has recognized our calling, that we should stop and seriously consider the advisability of changing from a tried and friendly administration to one from which, judging from past performance, we can expect nothing. We know ihat what legislation has been enacted for the benefit and protection of railroad employes has been through the Republican party." The address closes. with these words: "We feel confident that the railway employes will on election day demonstrate their friendship to one who has so generously befriended them, and that organized labor generally will do likewise." GOOD THINGS FRO.M ILLINOIS Expected by Major J. Tyler Povrcll, Sow YlsltluR In Indianapolis. Maj. J. Tyler Powell, of Chicago and Washington, who is visiting at the home of Mr. Paul Mason on North Capitol avenue, has made a few speeches in Illinois and will return to Chicago this week to make a week's campaign with Col. L. M. Kelly, beginning at Elgin. Major Powell is much pleased with the outlook in Illinois. "From what I have seen." he said yesterday. "I look for the State outside of Chicago to do as well as It did four years ago. So far as Chicago Is concerned I believe it will not do as well for Bryan as the Democrats claim or even as well as they expect. Th Cook county Democracy is badly divided and the factions will play against eacli other in the interest of their friends. They are anxious to trade Bryan votes for pledges for local and state candidates. I myself have had offers made to me to trade votes in this way, as have everal of my friends. Therefore I look for a surprise when the votes are counted In Chicago, and I see no reason why Illinois should not roll up a majority for McKinley and Roosevelt on a parity with that of four years ago." Major Powell is one of the best known figures In Grand Army circles In the Department of the Potomac. He has been chief of staff and department commander
and a prominent flgure In the councils and activities of the national organization. He is a high official in the Pension Departmen; and was connected with the Census Bureau of 1ST0. 1SS0 and 1SI0.
AFTER 3IH. IIANXA. Colonel Harbin Wnnt Him to Mnke More Speeches in Indiana. Col. W. T. Durbln, Republican candidate for Governor, spent last night In the city. He was in Chicago yesterday morning to see Senator M. A. Hanna, but the latter was not in the city. Colonel Durbln will endeavor to have Senator Hanna make a number of speeches in Indiana in addition to those he will make on Wednesday, Oct. 3L Senator Hanna's dates for the 31st are at Goshen, South Bend. Warsaw and Fort Wayne at night. Colonel Durbln desires the senator to make some speeches on Saturday, Nov. 3. The plan is to have him spend the day In Indiana. Should he consent to come he would visit, among other places, the cities of Crown Point, Winamac, Kokomo, Logansport, Elwood, Anderson and perhaps Muncie. At Anderson next Saturday the Republicans expect to have a big rally, and they think it would be a very happy plan to have Senator Hanna there. Logansport also has a rally on Saturday. If Senator Hanna should consent to come to Indiana on the date named he would probably visit a number of towns In addition to those named. Colonel Durbln will be in Chicago again Saturday night, and he expects to make a strong effort to gain Senator Hanna's promise to make these speeches. . ILLINOIS ALL RIGHT. Dr. Liston II. Montgomery Says Republican Majority Will Be Large. Dr. Liston II. Montgomery, of Chicago, surgeon of the, Ninth Regiment of Illinois and delegate to the American Public Health Association, Is an ardent Republican. He said yesterday: "A few weeks ago It looked somewhat dark for the Republicans in Illinois, and Cook county especially. Then the hustling began, and we will carry Cook county by from 20,000 to 25.000. If the election were held to-morrow I firmly believe we would carry the State of Illinois by 75,000. The Republicans are daily making gains, and I believe that on Nov. 6 Illinois will roll up a majority of 100,000 for McKinley. "I also believe," continued Dr. Montgomery, "that the Republicans will carry Indiana by a safe majority." TALK OF BRYAX AGAIN. Secretary Hawkins Say He May Be In Indiana on Oct. 31. Secretary Hawkins, of the Democratic state committee, said yesterday that an effort was being made to have William Jennings Bryan spend another day in Indiana, and he thought the state committee would probably be successful In securing Mr. Bryan. Oct. 31twlll probably be selected as the day for his visit in this State. He will not speak in Indianapolis, it Is announced. Here Getting: Boodle. The fact that a number of the Democratic State committeemen were In the city yesterday, and that Mayor Taggart spent part of the morning with Chairman Martin, gave rise to the rumor that funds were being distributed. It was even Intimated that the $50,000 which Mayor Taggart Is said to have received from Croker was being distributed. District Committeemen Here. Several of the Republican district committeemen of the State were in the city yesterday conferring with Chairman Hernly and members of the executive and advisory committees.

A BIG RALLY HELD
WEST INDIANAPOLIS nKPL'tiLlCAXS TtUX OLT US 3IA5SE. Representative Overntreet Creetcd by One Hiotmand 1'nthunlaatic Voter. PARADE BEFORE THE MEETING MARCHING CLl'BS AND MUSIC ENLIVEN THE OCCASION. Mr. Oreritreet's Remark Largely Confined to Present Prosperity Other Meetln. Representative Overstreet's popularity with the masses is beyond cavil and the magnificent audience that greeted him at West Indianapolis, last night, was only another of the many big crowds that have flocked to hear him ever since he began to speak In this campaign. The meeting was held in the open air, on some vacant lots, the speaker's stand being In the rear and the big audience taking up every bit of tho intervening space between the stand and the street. Before the meeting began there was a big street demonstration, made up of the Marion Marching Club, in full uniform, and headed by the Indianapolis Military Band. Twelfth Ward Republican Club, the NorlUIVC K Dial lUUil VIUU( ml V. v . . a 'of thirty pieces, the C. V. Fairbanks Col ored Republican Club and a company of Rough Riders. After parading over the principal streets the procession marched to the corner of River avenue and Morris street, the place where the stand had been erected, and disbanded. As Mr. Overstreet passed he was greeted with a salute of cannon. The meeting was presided over by Col. Cyrus J. Clark, who formerly resided In West Indianapolis. He introduced Mr. Overstreet as the best representative the district had ever had. When Mr. Overstreet arose to speak it was estimated that there were one thousand people within the sound of his voice. His appearance was greeted with enthusiastic applause, which recurred at Intervals during his entire speech. PRESENT CONDITIONS. Departing from the arguments he has heretofore made on the Issues of the campaign, Mr. Overstreet contented himself with referring to them Incidentally, and devoted the greater part of his speech to the prosperous condition of the country, which, he said, was directly attributable to the present Republican administration. "The Republican party," said Mr. pverstreet, "has no apologies to make for Its record during the last three years. President McKinley has performed his promises of four years ago. The past three years have demonstrated the falsity of the Democratic prophecies and proved the accuracy of Republican promises We promised to open the mills and give employment to the Idle, and we kept that promise to the letter. More men have been employed under the McKinley administration and at better wages than ever before. "It is self-evident that the labor conditions have Improved, for there Is scarcely a factory in this city that has not increased tho number of its employes and advanced the wage scale. I have received answers to letters of inquiry, written by. myself, from twenty-five factories in this city, and in each instance they state that they have increased the number of their employes and have advanced the scale of wages. In some instances the advance in wages amounts to 50 per cent. We have shown by increased labor that labor did not await the opening of the mints to free silver, but that it awaited the opening of the mills. We have proved the falsity of every prophecy made by Mr. Bryan. If, then, you cast your votes with the Democratic party at the approaching election and hard times again come upon you, you cannot blame the Republican party. FAITH IN THE PEOPLE. "But I have faith in the American people and I believe that you know a good thing when you seo It and will vote to keep prosperity with us another four years." After speaking with rjret of the Insurrection in the Philippines, Mr. Overstreet said: "Others may say what they please, but I believe that the only thing for us to do is to stand by the boys in blue who are so courageously supporting the flag. I believe that the Philippine insurrection will come to an end when sympathizers in this country . are overthrown at the ballot box in the approaching election." Following Mr. Overstreet Frederick E. Matron, candidate for State senator, spoks briefly on the issues of the campaign. Said Mr. Wätson: "I believe that this is a campaign of good faith and the result of the election will depend upon what the American people think of themselves. It will depend upon the character of the people elected and the people must choose for themselves either the party of promises or the party of performances."
