0N0RT0THE DEAD
Funeral of Carter Harrison at Chicago. Römains Taken from the City Hall to the Church, WHERE SERVICES ARE HELD Thousands Line the Route of the Procession. Manifestations of Sorrow on Every Hand, Service at 4h Church Uriel Minn Howard's Grief The Riderless Ilorae In the I'rucfMlon Aloae the Entire Line of March Sad Face with TearDim med Dye Looked on the Solemn Scene. CHICAGO, Nov. 1. With the solemn pomp and imposing ceremonies befitting the interment of the former chief magistrate of the world's fair city and his pitifully dramatic fate, Carter H. Harrison's body was escorted to Graceland cemetery today by an immmense throng of sorrowing citizens. Tenderly the remains were borne from the black-draped and flower-scented corridor of the city hail, where they had rested in stale, and placed in the funeral car. Through the great crowd that had gathered to see the murdered mayor's last leave-taking of the scene of his ardent labors in behalf of the city he loved, the black car slowly passed and took Its place In the waiting procession. As it drew into line, the march was taken up and the thousands who had gathered to do honor to the dead moved slowly through the crowded streets, with banners draped and to the sad music of the funeral march. Out from the center of the city, the great procession marched across the river and to the beautiful Church of the Epiphany, near the late executive's home. All along the line of march the people, with sad faces and bared heads, watched .he Bomber column. At the church a throng as great as that which had been about the City hall was gathered. Thonnnnd of Snd Fare. From every window, upon every roof and in every doorway along the line of march from the city hall out Jackson boulevard, sad facts looked forth upon the solemn scene. Inspector Ross had sent out 1,300 policemen to clear the streets and manage the crowds, but the officers were almost powerless in the vast throngs. As the Seventh regiment Ilillnois national guard passed a particularly crowded corner with Col. Francis T. Colby at the head of his splendidly drilled command, the crowd swayed forward, forced by the crush in the rear, but the policemen soyn cleared the way and the procession moved on again. The display was one of the most imposing ever seen in Chicas-o. As the funeral car, guarded by the active pallbearers, passed the crowds stood with bared heads and dimmed eyes,. During the crush opposite the doors "of the church Mrs. L. A: Clark of 496 -S. Mor-gan-st. fainted before she could be gotten out of the crowd. She was severely crushed and bruised. A patrol wagon took her to the county hospital. Arrived at the church, the remains were placed within the chancel rail and in the presence of a great congregation of the friends of the mayor the beautiful episcopal service for the. dead was read by the Rev. T. X. Morrison, Jr. The music was by forty choir loys robed in black cassocks and -white surplices. The March to the Cemetery. Out from the sacred edifice echoing to the saddened strains of the great organ almost hidden beneath wreaths and letters and roses, the casket was borne and the march to the cemetery began. Down Washington boulevard, across the river and then to the North Side, the procession moved in unbroken column and upon streets everywhere lined with great crowds. About two miles north from the center of the city the foot portion of the line disbanded, while the mounted officers and those in carriages went on to the cemetery. The services at the church were not of great duration, consisting only of an address by the Rev. T. N. Morrison, the rector, and the singing of several hymns. The last hymn rendered was "Blessed Are the Dead," and while it was being given the casket was borne from the church to the hearse. A sad scene occurred when the chief mourners mo red out to the carriages. Miss Annie Eoward. who had endured the strain of the services with remarkable fortitude, gave way completely and burst Into violent weeping when the portals of the church had been passed. Her whole frame trembled with the force of her emotion, while her passionate sobs moved the hearts of all who stood near. Sympathetic friends assisted her to a carriage and she was driven to the Harrison residence. Here her strength seemed to fail her completely, and she would have sunk to the pavement as she attempted to walk to the house had not her friends supported her. When within the house her tears burst anew and the soothing of anxious friends was unavailing.Throwing herself 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 for 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 waa soon revived with stimulants. Darkness was dvst gathering when the head of the funeral cortege reached Graceland cemetery. In front of the entrance Capt. Brand halted his Chicago hussars. He quickly wheeled the body of horser. forming two llne& on either side of the fcad- There they stood at present arms until the procession passed BETTER THAN PILLS.

GroTfing Impresitlon That o Radical Redactions Will IJe Made. WASHINGTON, Nov. 5. There is a growing impression among those who have talked with the majority members of the committee on ways and means who are preparing a tariff bill, that this bill, when it Is reported, will not present such a radical reduction as was promised some time ago. Just what led to this is not clear except that the deficit in the treasury makes it important that the reductions of the duty shall not be so radical as to impair the revenue raising qualities of the measure. Th're have been numerous expedients talked of to raise sufficient revenue, chiefly those relating to an increase of internal taxation. It has been Intimated that these suggestions have been given out with the idea of testing the feeling of the people upon them and to see if they will be too much of a burden upon those who will have to bear them. There has been a lull in the talk of the Income tax during the week but it is evident that those who favor it have not been idle. Mr. Uryan of Nebraska, a member of the committee, that he is devoting much time to the income tax proposition. He thinks that he is making converts for it in the committee and hopes to have it reported as a revenue raising feature of the tariff bill. Other members of the committee say that it will be impossible now to cut the duties to that extent that many people seem to think should be done, and they will give out the impression that so far from being such a radical measure as once predicted it will be a mild reduction, all around without any heavy cuts on anything and with a free list not so largely increased as has been talked of. Indeed some of the members are opposed to enlarging the free list to any extent except In a few and unimportant articles, especially when the revenues of the government are in their present condition. There is now talk about a reduction upon coal and Iron ore Instead of sending both of these articles to the free list. It Is true that in all that has been said about the tariff bill nothing officially has been given out except the statement of Chairman Wilson that the first draft of the customs bill had been completed. Secretary Carlisle did not send any intimation of a public nature to congress indicating that he wanted any legislation to relieve the treasury, but It is known that the ways and means committee has taken into consideration the state of the finances of the treasury and that possibly it would have been able to act if a request had been made. QIAHATIE RA IS KD. Manele Cltlaenn Present Their Case to the Health Hoard. The state board of health decided Friday to raise the quarantine at Muncie. A committee consisting of Dr. F. G. Jackson, J. C. Johnson and H. II. Highlands met with the board and Governor Matthews and presented the situation at Muncie with the request that the quarantine restrictions be discontinued. II was shown that the disease was under control and that there was now no danger of a further spread. It was thought that the public schools and churches could now be opened without danger by requiring each pupil to present a certificate of health and a certificate of vaccination. The infected houses will be carefully watched and no one will be allowed to enter or leave them. All small-pox patient3 are now in the hospital provided for them and there has been no new cases for over two weeks. After these facts, which were already known to the board, had been presented the committee withdrew and the situation was discussed by the board and the governor. The conclusion was unanimously reached that the quarantine could now be safely raised and the committee was instructed to present the matter in the form of a written petition and it would be granted. This will relieve the state of the great expense it has been to for the past three or four weeks to maintain the so-called railroad quarantine. The state board is in receipt of information that the trouble between the city and county health board at Dunkirk had been amicably adjusted and that the county board had provided a hospital for small-pox patients. There Is as yet only the one case and it will probably prove fatal. A number of persons, however, were exposed, and it is believed that other cases will develop and preparations will be made to fight its further spread. THE MIDWIXTEU FAIR. Officials Are Pressed for Space to Accommodate Exhibitors. CHICAGO, Nov. 5. The busiest place at the fair grounds these days is the California building. M. H. DeYoung, director-general of the California midwinter fair, and other officials of that enterprise make the California building their headquarters, and from morning until night there is a throng of callers there. Most of them are exhibitors who will move their Btock from here direct to San Francisco Uhe California managers have profited ,by the experience of the World's Columbian exposition officials. They have secured half rates from all railroads for exhibitors' freight and have got the railroads to agree to reduced fares for visitors from the opening of the exposition. Another wise move on the part of the midwinter people, In the Judgment of the exposition authorities, is the charging for space occupied by exhibitors. Had the world's fair done this, which has been customary at all great expositions, ;i3,000,000 or 120,000,000 would have been added to Its receipts. California is taking its choloe of world's fair exhibits. So great is the demand for space that it has twice had its territory enlarged by the commissioners In charge of Golden Gate park, and now the managers are obliged to fl.sk for another xtension of territory. . . ... .

NEW ORLEANS WILL GET IT.
CORBETT AM) MITCHELL ARE LIKELY TO FIGHT THERE. An Agreement Between Messrs. Thompson and Brady, the Representatives of the Two Sluggers The Situation Explained by u Letter. NEW YORK, Nov. 5. Agreement was Signed tonight by Billy Thompson, representing Charles Mitchell, the English pugilist, and W. A. Brady, representing James J. Corbett, which will probably have the effect of bringing off the big international fight in Nerv Orleans. It looks after all as if the Olympic club of the Crescent City would secure the event. . The representatives of the fighters, accompanied by Ike Thompson and George W. Welty. met in the World office, and in consultation with the sporting editor of that -paper drew up the articles of agreement, which were subsequently signed. All parties mean business. The meeting was consequent upon- the receipt of a letter from Secretary W. II. Ross of the Olympic club, inclosed with which were articles of agreement very similar to those substituted by the principals during last night's conference. The proposition forwarded by Mr. Ross, however, allowed no expense allowance for training, taking into consideration the fact that the Olympic club originally offered a purse of 525,000. Corbett and Mitchell think that they have not asked too much in calling for $2,500 apiece for a training guarantee and deducting that amount from the purse. The situation is clearly explained in tne letter sent last night to New Orleans with the new articles of agreement. It is as follows: "To W. H. Ross, Secretary of the Olympic Club, New Orleans: "Dear Sir Yours sent to James J. Corbett inclosing articles for a contest at the Olympic club received today and In answer we inclose a set of articles which have been duly drawn up, agreed to and signed by our representatives, which articles cover what we consider an equitable arrangement, and we desire to state that this is positively our ultimatum, and an agreement aside from the inclosed one has been, entered into tonight between Messrs. Corbett and Mitchell whereby, if you do not accept the inclosed articles on or before Thursday, Nov. 9, and notify us by wire of your aceptance, 'that these articles shall become null and void. "Mr. Mitchell and Mr. Corbett require five more weeks to prepare. The date is left optional with you as long as it is on or after Dec. 18, 18H3. We trust that you will not consider the guarantee clauses extortionate. You know your club offered us a purse of $25.000, which you agreed to pay in case the Coney Island club was unable to fulfill its contract, and as both of the contracting parties to this agreement have been put to very great .expense viz., Mitchell's trip from England with his two trainers and his expense during his stay in New York and thereabouts and Corbett's expensive training since Aug. 15 we both agree that under the circumstances and the condition of affairs which we understand exists in New Orleans, in justice to ourselves we are averse to taking any more chances; and as it is stated that you are willing to pay both of the men's training expenses whether or not the contest takes place, we submit these articles for your consideration. Yours truly, "JAMES J. CORBETT. "CHAKL.ES MITCHELL." The Articles. The articles forwarded to Secretary Ross with this letter are given below: "We, the undersigned, James J. Corbett of California and Charles Mitchell of England, do hereby agree to engage in a glove contest before the Olympic club of New Orleans any day after Dec. 18, at 9 p. m. sharp for a purse of $20,000, winner to receive all. The contest to be with the smallest gloves allowed by the law, said gloves to be furnished by James J. Corbett (the gloves to be of ordinary make, with finger holes and nothing in the way of center padding) in accordance with th agreement now existing between contracting parties. The Marquis of Queensberry rules to govern the contest, said rules to be followed in every Instance and particular; the club is to select a referee and official time-keeper, the referee to be named to principals nnd to the satisfaction to both, three weeks previous to contest or before, each of the principals reserving the right to appoint a timekeeper to represent himself, said timekeepers to be subject to the approval of the club.' "Should either of the principals commit a deliberate foul, thereby injuring the other's chance of winning, the one so doing shall lose all interest in the aforesaid purse. To guarantee the faithful performance of the above cbligatlons each principal hereby agrees to deposit the sum of twenty-five hundred ($2.500) dollars in the hands of any reputable man to guarantee his appearance in the ring at the appointed time. "The Olympic cub hereby agrees that on the signing of these articles it will deposit two certified checks of $2,500 each in the Canal bark. New Orleans, La., said checks to be made payable, one to James J. Corbett and one to Charles Mitchell, said checks to be paid over to said James J. Corbett and Charles Mitchell for training expenses and necessary transportation to New Orleans. The said checks to be paid to James J. Corbett and Charles Mitchell on their arrival in New Orleans, and are not to be considered as part of the purse which is to be paid intact to the winner. "The Olympic club hereby guarantees both principals in this contract absolute protection before and after the contest in regard to all and any interference on the part of the city or state authorities, and to payall expenses that said principals may e forced to expend to free themselves from any interference on the part of the Louisiana authorities, city or state.

DEATH BY ELECTRICITY.
JAMES A. ROiiEUS SHOCKED TO DEATH II Y THAT AGKNCY. He Was Working at a Dynamo nnd Received One Tliounitnd Volt Death Cnnie Intunl Wns u. Married Man and Had Ueeu Employed About n. Mouth. Another fatal accident was added to the long list Friday night. James A. Rogers, an employe of the Brush electric light station on S. lVnn-sylvania-CL, accidentally phicixl his' hands on one of the brushes of a. dynamo. He received a shock of probably one thousand volts and was almost instantly killed. Rogers, who was a married man, lived with his wife at US Chadwiek-st, He had only been in the employ of tho light company about one month. Previous to that time he was out of employment for several weeks. He was a careful workman and obeyed the instructions of the foreman of the works In regard to handling machinery, etc. Just what he was doing or in exactly what manner he received the shock is not known, but it is supposed that he was either oiling or adjusting some part of the machinery. The first intimation his fellow-workmen had that anything was wrong was when the lights furnished by the dynamo at which he was working were extinguished. Van Lanningham, one of the men employed in the works, saw Rogers turn from the machine and walk a d'stance of probably six feet. He then sank to the floor and was dead beforo medical aid could reach him. It Is supposed that when he received the shock he clutched at the machine and his hand accidentally coming in contact with the switch shut the current off. There were no marks on his body with the exception of his finger tips which were slightly burned. There is a standing order in the works to the effect that when the men are working about the dangerous machines they must always work with one hand, keeping the other one behind them. Had Rogers done this he would have been alive today. Just what caused him to place both hands on the brushes at the same time Is not konwn. The machine was in perfect running trder and there was no reason for doing so. Coroner Beck was notified and arrived on the scene shortly after Rogers died. He made an investigation, after which the body was taken in charge by 1). Kregelo & Son. Rogers had only lH.-n married since last April. Coroner Beck drove to his home and broke the terrible news to his wife. PEXSIOV DAY. Over S.G02 Men "Were Paid YeterdaRut More to Follow. Saturday was pension day and nt an early hour in the morning the pensioners lined up in front of the office r.nd waited. There were a good many anxious hearts in the gathering, for many of them didn't know whether there was a pension, a drop or a suspension waiting for them. As a matter of fact there were some dropped and some suspended, but the statement that the number dropped reached 100 and those suspended 500 was greatly exaggerated. Mr. Ensiey said, in speaking of the matter: "It is impossible for me to give out official figures and I can't say anything about it, but such tilings are erenerally greatly exaggerated. There were some dropped and some suspended. Further than this I cannot say. I can say this, however, there have been many reinstatements. But I can't give official figures on that point either." The amount of pension money paid in when all are paid will be over one million and a half dollars. The number paid yesterday was as follows: In person over the counter, 3,152; by mail, 5,210; total. 8.6C2. Disbursements: In person over the counter, $132,312; by mall, $200,5S3; total. Some pathetic stories are told about pensioners who were dropped or suspended, but there is much to be heard on the other side. If these cases prove to be worthy they will be reinstated with full pay during the time of suspension. The department intends to do justice to all and there are few who doubt it now.

A LONDON MIRACLE.
AX IMPORT 1XT ST ITEM EXT RY A WKf.L-KM)V t ITIZKX. Mr. E. J. Powell Relate Ills Remark, able Eiteriwt-e to an Advertle UrproNrntativr Tortured Uy MaliKII ut R lieu ma Ii in fn.iit Hoy hood He at LHt Keje (ruui Any A Story Full of Hope for Oiher Sufferer. (From tho London. )nt.) Advertiser.) At "3 Alma Street, South London, lives Mr. L J. Puwel. a pentleman who has re-sided in London and vicinity for about six years. He his l,..n a sufferer since his youth with i houmatlsm in its worst f"rm, but now th- haggard face and almost crippled form rf a year ago have given away to an appearance of health and vigor. Bearing of this a reporter called on Mr. Powell and asked him to relate his experience. "The first time I really felt any rheumatic trouble," sail Mr. Powell, "was in 1S72. A uvinge of pain caught me, but passed away in an instant. I did not know what it was. After that I wa? attacke-d at various periods, and ia IST'J I began to grow alarmed. In 1S7S I suffered from !sciatica in the left leg. "For a number of years afterward X continued to grow worse and worse. In the summer of 1SS1 I e xpei itnced the pain constantly. It was all day and at all times. I took th electric treatment steadily fcr several weeks, but it dil me not the slightest good. "A year apo last winter I was seized with a pain and fr fourteen weeks I never left the house. The only way la which I coull be moved was by being wheeled around in an easy chair. What I suffered during that i.-riod no one bu myself can ever realize. Mr. Marshall, of whose case you have heard, is an acquaintance of inino, and said he couli not say whether Pink Pills woulj cur rheumatism or not, but they were good for the blood anyway, and at least It would do me tj harm to try half a dozpn boxes. "So I did; bought six loxf-s, t"nk four and received no benefit that I could recognize, but while taking the fifth I noticed thrtt for a i ri d cf three or fLur days I felt no pain. I supposed it was a temporary relaxation du- to natural causes. However, it gave me some lvpa to finish the sixth lwx. Then 1 knew I was getting better much better. Ths pain which had b-xn constant becämintermittent and les severe. My friend. and family f-'i-l m that I wa.s leginning to 1'xjk like another man. My fa.ee, which had begun to wear a drawn expression, common with jof'ple who are suffering, commenced to s-how a better colT. My system was being toned up. Inspired with inert-nsed hope I purchased, six more boxes from Dr. Mitchell, tha druggist, and continued to take them, and with each box I realized , more and more that it was a cure. I used up thir-te-en boxes in all, and v hen the thirteea was finished I had not a symptom of pain for three months. "Now," concluded Mr. Powe!!, "you ha'v my experience. I know what 1 was; I know what I am. I know that from boyhood I have t-n a victim of malignant rheumatism, which has been a tortur tb" last few y-ars. I know that I have trt&l every remedy and ben trep-1 by the bC ni'Mical skill, lut in vain; and I know that I'ir.k Pills have succeeded where everything else has failed and that they hava lroui-'ht me back heulth an 1 haprlntas. Therefore I cuirht to b thankful, ajid 1 am, thankful." And Mr. Powell's intense etirnestness of manner culi admit cf nj doubt as to Iiis gratltud and sincerity. "You mav a.k Rev. Mr. Mclntyre of tha Askia Street Metholist Church, or Rev. G. A. Andrews, p.. A,, pastor of the Lambeth circuit, whether I was a sick man or not." were his parting words. The reporter dropped in on Rev. C. E. Mclntjro at the parsonapc, 2 Aekin street. "I kn-w Mr. Powell well." said tht reverend srentleman when questioned. "Ha is an esteemed partshnner of mine fend in attending th Afkin Stre'-t Church strain." "Dc ou remember Mr. Powell's iliness a year a(r last winter?" "Ye: he had a very bad attack of rheumatism which, laid him up for a long time. He had to ba wheele.1 aruund the house In a chair. Now he appears to be a well man. I heard ha had b-en cured ly Dr. Williams' Pir.lc Pills. Mr. Powell . In niy opinion, a most conscientious person, and any statement he would make would be perfectly reliable." Mr. B. A. Mitchell, the well-known druggist, uin whom the r--port--r next caJled. said: '"I know of Mr. Pnvell's cure aj)d it is every word true.
