EARTH TO EARTH.

All That Was Mortal of Thomas A. Hendricks Entombed. A City In Mourning Garb With Mourners From All Parts of the Nation. Friends, Present and Absent, Attest Their Lore By Elaborate Floral Offerings. The Toning Bell and Minute Gun Announce the Passage to the Toxnh. The Remains Escorted By an Imposing and Representative Cavalcade, And Eminent Divines Pronounce the Last Sad Words Which Close an Honored Career.

Indianacous, Ixd., December i.— The mortal remains of Thomas A. Hen* (tricks, the fifth Vice-President of the United States to die daring his term of office, were conveyed to the tomb to-day. The event was made memorable in many respects by the presence of a tremendous concourse of people from all parts of the Nation to witness the simple rites which preceded their interment. The presage of inclement weather on the day of his funeral, which was given yesterday, was verified only to the extent of a wintry leaden sky and a thick atmosphere during early hours, unusual to this latitude. The heavy fog of the preceding afternoon still hung over the city, when day broke, but as the hours wore on, it lifted somewhat, and became less impenetrable. The sombreness of the heavens were reflected even more deeply in the appearance of the city, which witnessed the development of his career. Its chief structures were hidden in their folds of black drapery, while to -the occasion were lent all forms which people can observe to show their respect for the dead. The business of the city was entirely suspended. The clergy without respect to sect, joiued in the obsequies; the belis of all the churches tolled requiems, and the presence of the populace iu the column which followed his funeral car, or stood as silent spectators of the solemn spectacle attested their fealty to his memory. The early morning trains on all the railways brought delegations from the National Capital and all the leading cities of the Union, together with an influx of people from all the Interior cities and hamlets of Central Indiana and Illinois. The Cabinet was repreented by Secretary Bayard, Secretaries Lamar, Whitney, Endicott and l’ostmaster-General Vilas. The Supreme Bench was represented by Associated Justices Matthews and Blatchford. The United States Senate was represented by Senators Edmunds, Allison, Pugh, Harris, Conger, Blair, Dolph, Vest, Beck, Camden, Vance, Jones, Voorhees, Payne, Palmer and Harrison. The committee representing theHouse of Representatives was composed of Morrison, Blount, Herbert, Holman, Springer, Hepburn, Ward, Phelps, Kleiner and Dunn. The number of active and ex-members of the lower House present, in addition to those named was large. The Governors of Indiana, Ohio, Illinois and Ketitueky were present, attended by their staffs, and numerous State officers. Major-General Schofield was the chiefrepresentative of the United States Army present. Kx-President Hayes and General Sherman were distinguished guests, the latter accompanying the delegation from St. Louis. The officers and other official delegates were met on their arrival by local sub-committees and given tickets of admission to St. Paul’s Episcopal Cathedral, to be present at the church services, and were assigned positions in the funeral column. The Presidential special Baltimore & Ohio train, with members of the Cabinet, arrived a few minutes past nine. The party was met by the Reception Committee, headed by Senator Harrison, and immediately driven to the Hendricks residence. Colonel John M. Wilson, U. S. A., was intrusted with an autograph letter from President Cleveland to Mrs. Hendricks, expressing his profound sorrow and condolence, and regrets that circumstances, over which he had no control, prevented his attendance at the ceremonies. Colonel Wilsou also bore a beautiful floral design made of flowers from the conservatory of the Executive Mansion, with the condolence of Miss Cleveland. Train arrivals swelled the multitude on the streets to such an extent as to Impede ordinary progress on all the chief thoroughfares. Washington street presented a black mass of humanity hours before tlie services were entered upon at St. Paul’s, and long before the passage of the column the windows of business blocks were filled by occupants wtprse eyes rested upon a waiting multitude which occupied, apparently, every vantage point along i'le broad thoroughfare. The Jrablems of mourning wlrlch began to appear on public and private buildings on the day-of the Vice-President’s death, have grown iu quantity and design until now the whole city may be said to be in funeral garb. Washington street presents an almost unbroken line of draped houses, while on every business street and even along the residence streets, people have been lavish

IB their display of signs ot public sorrow. Perhaps the most effective display is at the P.ost-odlae, where wide bands ol black cover the entire cornice and completely cover the small space ot the Urst story, leaving only doors and windows visible. Not a line, not a spot ot white relieves the entire building. The County Court-house, where the remains lay tti state until Monday eVeniug, add the State House are tastefrilly draped,, but in less elaborate style, owing to their much more massive exterior. A striking teature ot the drapery of the buildings is the almost universal use of white material as a border, or in bows or rosettes upon black. Legends are very few. One business house ou Washington street has the words: “1 AM Flint; AT EAST,'* the last words ot the dead Vice-President. Portraits of deceased, shrouded In black, are profusely hung in the windows. The general effect tells in mute eloquence of the high respect with which the people oif Indianapolis regarded their fellow townsman and of the tender sympathy which ihoves them to thus try to mitigate the griCf of her upon whom the blow of tikis National bereavement has fallen with the heaviest force. One of the central points of attraction for the visiting multitude was the modest home of the late Vice-President on Tennessee street, a plain two-story brick structure, facing the State Capitol building now In process of construction. On the front door of the home was a black rosette, from which was pendant a strip of black crape, which constituted the only outward emblem of mourning. On the street, in front of the house, were gathered a large but respectable crowd, which grew Iu ilumbers as the forenoon advanced. A detail of police and soldiery was able, however, to keep the street clear in front of the editlce to enable close friends and relatives of Mrs. Hendricks and members of the respective committees to gain admission to the grounds. • Within, emblems of mourning and memorial Coral designs were at hand everywhere. The oil portraits of Mr. and Mrs. Hendricks were almost hidden in banks of flowers and trailing smilax. On the mantel, In the front parlor, was an elegant floral piece, emblematic of “THE GATES AJAB,”

Seut to by members of a Chinese class of the Presbyterian Sunday school. The most notable floral design was that of the log cabin in which Mr Hendricks was born in Ohio. It stood at the head of his coffin, and was the work of ladies of Shelbyville, where he had formerly lived. It was six feet in length and four feet in height. Its sides were composed of ealla lilies, white hyacinthes, carnations and roses; the roof of English ivy and sniilax, and the chimney of red and white carnations. On one side of the miniature' structure, in purple immortelles, was the inscription: “The home of my boyhood,” and beneath, “Shelbyville.” On the open door of the cabin was pendant a black satin banner bearing in letters of gold:

“ GOD’S E1NGKB TOUCHED HIM AND HE ] SLEPT,” anil a second Inscription underneath “Shelbyvllle mourns her distinguished son.” Over a large painting ot the dead VicePresident in the back parlor ol the mansion was fluug a soft drapery of white Chinese silk, and near it stood a splendid banner, presented during the recent National campaign, containing the faces of President Cleveland and the deceased. During the morning the arrival of additional floral designs caused o change in the arrangement in the parlors. An" emblem of “Gates Ajar,” from the Cook County Democratic Club of Chicago was placed at the head of the casket. Perhaps the most thoughtful and touching tribute was a simple wreath from the little village of Fultonliaffi, Ohio, where Mr. Hendricks was bortt. It was placed on the casket, aud along side of it were cast the more rare and brilliant products of the White House conservatories received this morning from Miss Cleveland. At 9 a. m. Mrs. Hendricks entered the room for her last leave-taking, accompanied by her brother and Mrs. Morgan. The ordeal was most trying, and the desolate woman seemed to be utterly prostrated, clinging to the last to the clay so soon to be hidden forever from her view, and impressed with the life-like appearance of the dead, she desired to preserve this last scene, aud so, late as it was, she sent for a photographer to take a picture of the casket. Before he arrived, delegations from distant cities began to come and were permitted to pass through and view the remains while the photographer was engaged at his work. The members of the Cabinet Judges of the Supreme Court and others from Washington entered, and were fortunately detained a few minutes by the process. It was eleven o’clock when the casket was replaced and the stream of visitors again passed by and out through the side door. Shortly after this the pall-bearers arrived. The draped hearse and carriages for the family and friends were marshaled before the door, and preparations were made for the Anal removal of the body. This was done without further leave-taking. The police and military kept the curious but always respectful mass of people out of they way, and the little cavalcade moved quietly with its escort through the densely lined streets to the cathedral of St. Paul. The casket was borne into the church at 12:14 p. m., the vast congregation having already been seated with the exception of the Immediate relatives and church vestry. The officiating clergy, four in ! number, Bishop Knickerbocker, of this 1 diocese; Rev. Dr. Stringfellow, of Montgomery, Ala., first rector of St. Paul’s, and under whose ministration Mr. Hendricks joined the church; Rev. Dr. Fulton, of St. Louis, a former rector of St.Paul’s, and Rev. Dr. Jenckes, the present rector, in their robes of office, met the remains at the main entrance of the cathedral on Illinois street, preceded by a guard of Indianapolis light infantry. The body was borue up the central aisle, the clergymen and members of the vestry going In advance. Bishop Knickerbocker voiced the opening sentence of the burial service: “I am the resurrection and the life,” followed by Rev. Dr. Stringfellow and Dr. Fulton, iu their recitation of other verses used in the offices for the dead, uutil the casket had been carried forward aud placed outside the chancel. The great audience stood while the impressive seene was enacted. Following the bier came the widow, leaning on the arm of Mr. Morgan, followed by other relatives. Thirteen pews at the right of the central aisle were reserved for the family, while the vestry and members of local committees occupied pews In front to the left. The pew occupied by the dead VicePresident In his life time was the tenth from the front to the left of the middle aisle, when facing the altar. It was distinguished by its complete envelopment in black cloth, and was unoccupied. The church is a modest brick structure, seating 900 people, but holding in this instance fully 1,000. The church was fully and appropriately draped. Handsome designs, the gifts of Cincinnati and Toledo clubs, were prominent. The church was brilliantly lighted. Inside the chancel, in addition to the officiating clergy, were seated other clergy of the Protestant Episcopal Church in their robes, the choristers’ benches were occupied by other city and visiting clergy. When the casket was placed in front ot the chancel rati the dtpir sang the anthem f

“LORD, LKY ME tXfIW in EXB.** The lesson of the dead was redd by Rev. Dr. Jenekes, This was followed by the singing of the hydhf, “Lead, Heavenly Light” by the choir, the audience joining. Rev. Dr. Jenckes, speaking front the lecturn,delivered the address. When the speaker had concluded, Mrs. Doner, of Chicago, sang “Rock of Ages.” The Bishop closing with prayers and benediction. The casket was tiled lifted and borne froth the church, the apdieuce reulainirtg seated. The bells Of all the chtirchcs bU* gau tolling, whet! the remain's we’re taken from the house, arid eoritinued their mournful pealing during the rites and while the procession was on its long march to Crown Hill Cemetery. There was very little delay in the movement n the column when once the people who had composed the church andiwiee had been assigned their1 carriages. The col it ntn whs preceded by a mounted police escort, who were follawed by the Columbus Barracks band aud the Richardson Zouaves, who immediately pieced the hearse. The latter was drawn by Six black horses wearing black paraphernalia, worn by the animals at tached to the funeral car which bore the remains <Jf General ft rant to his grave. On either side of the hearse was a guard of Indianapolis Light Infantry, carrying their guus at position of “Reverse arms.** Immediately in the rear of the hearse were the Rice Guards and Straight Rifles, both local military companies. The funeral car occupied a central position In the secoud of the four grand divisions. The first division was composed of State military companies marching independently, all the oflleers mounted. The Busch Zouaves, of St. Louis, was the only compariv appearing In the Hue from outside the State. ’ In the second grand division, following *he hearse, came the carriage containing Mrs. Hendricks, Mrs. Morgan, Mr. and Mrs. Fitzhngh Thorrifch The succeeding twelve carriages contained relatives and very near friends. Ex-Presiuelft Hayes occupied the next carriage, and was followed In regular order by members of the Cabinet, Senators, Representatives; Governors and staffs, Judiciary, ex-Sena-tors and Representatives, military officers, State officers of Indiana, followed by Presidents and faculties ol universities and colleges, Mayors of cities and other civil officials. The Third division was composed of all don-military organizations. It was preceded by local Irish-Ameriean organizations, followed by marching political clubs which had taken psfrt in the recent Presidential campaign. The Fourth Division was made tlj>' bf local organizations, including the fire department with their.' steamer heavily flranMl.

The column took up its line of march at 12:48. Their progress through the crowded streets was very slow, and when the head of the column came within sight of the cemetery, a mile distant, the Indianapolis Light Artillery began to lire mintlte gitns, which was continued until the hearse reached the grave. The line of march from the church was south on Illinois to Washington, deist to Delaware, north to Market, west to Meridian, ami north on Meridian to Crown it ill Cemetery, At the cemetery there was an immense CotlCotirse, of people. The Hendricks lot and monument wencovered with elaborate floral offerings. A white marble vault had been sunk into the ground near the monument for the reception of the burial casket. The inner walls of the vault are completely covered with smllax and roses, so Unit thet bare earth was at no place visible. The religious services here were Very brief and simple. Drs, Fulton aud Stringfellow pronouncing the seuteuces. The committal service toy Dr. Jertcks followed, and the benediction was then pronounced by Bishop Knickerbocker, Before the simple ceremonies at tire cemetery were closed, many of the organizations, military and civic, had dropped from the line aud were making for their respective headquarters to , avoid a threatened rainstorm. By seven o’clock the central part of the city had again donned its every-day appearance. Almost momentarily trains laden with human freight en route to all 'sections were leaving the city. The Congressional Committees via the Pennsylvania Railroad,s, in charge of Southeastern Passenger Agent Parke, of Washington, and General Superintendent Barrie of the Pullman Palace Car Company drew out of the city shortly after six o’clock, and the Baltimore & Ohio special, with the members of the Cabinet and the representatives of the United Press on board, in charge of Assistant General Passenger Agent Pangboru, left the Union Depot shortly before T p. in. The Cabinet will reach Washington early to-morrow afternoon. There is a very generally expressed regret here that President Cleveland could not consistently attend the funeral, but it Is at tin same time fully realized that iu not doing ■ so, the Executive obeyed what he construed to be the desire of his countrymen. Playing tilde anil Seek With Riotous Miners. Pittsburgh, Pa., December a.—The efforts of the Sheriff and his deputies to arrest the men who committed last Friday’s outrages, were not so successful yesterday as they were Monday. The alarm had been given all along the river, and the guilty ones were generally on the lookout and ready for flight at a moment’s notice. There were only three men captured. One of them—Samnel Cowley—Is a well known citizen, and his arrest caused great indignation. Jack Sickles, well known as a desperate man, was seen and fired at by Constable McClure. Sickles promptly returned the fire, the bullet gazing the Constable’s neck. When the officers returned to Coal Valley yesterday afternoon, forty men who were wanted showed themselves on the hill tops aud laughed at the officers for their efforts to capture them. They can evade the latter as long as they wish. Only tlfteen men were at work yesterday. The river is being patrolled by Deputy ! Sheriffs.

He Emigrated. Mansfield, O., December 3.—Joseph Hoodcwitch, for ten years employed by the Fanners’ National Bank and late assistant book-keeper and teller, left Monday night for Canada with a large amount of negotiable securities. He has embezzled about $4,500, and it is thought tlu securities were taken for the purpose oi compelling a compromise. He telegraphed yesterday morning from Windsor, Canada, that he would talk with “Major” George Cluy.ster, former cashier, and lit. one else. Cluyster is now eo route fu) Windsor. The bank is one of the strong est in Ohio, and the embezzlement will not affect it in the least. —There is uo such thing a/ limiting the scope of journalism.

FOREIGN BUDGET. Joseph Chamberlain On the British Bis** tlo*»—The Latent Keturns-CumpUeatlona Thicfceniuj; In the Servo-Bulgarlaa Conte»t -- Theebaw'n Surrender — Bow the British Will Trent Him — The British Troops Caught Napping. CdJHtnUlN’« 8PKECH. London, December 4 .—Mr. Jos. Chamberlain voted yesterdaypt Leicester, and he made a very significant speech at the same place last evening. lf«J eahl that t*-« Liberal defeats in the borough* were Ante to fire “P’s”—priests, publicans, J«ar80BS, Paruellites and protectionists. Such an iniquitous combination was not likely ever to occur agam in British politics. Parnell, he said, boasted that hehad throttled the Liberal party, but he would probably live to regreU, that boaet. It it were true that Parnell throttled the Liberal parly, he had destroyed the only great machinery by which Ireland ffotffd ever hope to obtain justice. Mr. Chamberlain said he did not believe there would be any permanent alienation of Irish voter* from the Liberal p*rty . If the Tories win in the present elect toils he thought there would probably be ft weak Tow Government for a shafts time existing on the sufferance"“Df its opponents, l! U did no mischief it might bd allowed to UvO. If it wrought harm to the nation or the empire the Liberals wonid speedily end its career. Mr. Chamberlain concluded by saying that among the lessons taught by the elections one "of the most important was that nothing was lost by declaring a clear and definite policy, and that nothing was gained by whittling away issues until t)»»> Liberal view was undistinguished from^thai ot tlielg, opponents.

London, December 4.—The Stunmid (Tory) this morning throws up (he rnonge ami dolefully admits that the Liberals have won an unexpected victory. It finds its «soif comfort in the belief that Gladstone's- majority will be insufficient to enable ’fiim to safely handle the Irish question. THK^ATKST RETURNS. London, December 4.—The latest returns show the election of 2t>2 Liberals, 21 i Tories and- fifty-two Paruellites. The Liberals are thus w ithin one vote of being as strong as the Tories and Paruellites combined. Turkey's mistake. London, December4 .—Turkey’s action in appointing a Governor-General of Eastern Roumdia is regarded here as hasty and unwise just at this juncture of affairs. It can not fail to make the final settlement of the Eastern question still more difficult* Already it is reliably reported from Thilippopolis that the Buljsjgrians ore making ready to resist the authority of Djaodet Pasha upon his arrival, and to prevent him from exercising his functions as Goveraor-Geu-etSL The attempt of the Porte to ignore the conference of Ambassadors and to restore the status quo ante In the face of the decision of the conference to ,\ aive such restoration, Is an affront which will hardlj be overlooked by England and Russia. The announcement that Austria has instructed her representative at Phtlippopolis to support Djcodet is in harmony with Austria’s-at-titude throughout, but indicates that the Vienna Government has decided upon even a bolder declaration of its policy than it has yet ventured upon. Russia can scarcely avoid recoguiziug Austria now as an active participant in the Bul-anrian-Serviau quarrel, aud it is more likely than ever that some circumstance will arise in the increasingly complicated situation to bring Austria and Russia winto direct antagonism. Strenuous efforts-to prevent this result are being made by the diplomatic representatives of the powers a in Bulgaria and Roumelia by preventing ’t an undue ebulition of public feeling over ■Turkey’s arbitrary action. Djeodet’s arrival at PhUippopolis is anxiously awaited by all interested. TllEEBAW’S SURRENDER. London, December ib—A dispatch fivus Rangoon says King Theebaw, al- * though he had .surrendered his army and his kingdom, did not surrender his palacein the city of Mandalay. General Prendergast entered the palace aud receivedthe King’s formal act of submission-.

The royal captives were then Taken on a steamer to Rangoon, escorted TO' 200 soldiers. Five regimerfts of iniautry and one battery of artillery are left at Mandalay to garrison the place and oerforin provost duty. TO UVK LIKE A LORD. Simla, December 3.—Earl Dufferiu, Viceroy of India, has decided after communicating with the Home Government, to intern King Theebaw of Burmah In any remote Indian city which the deposed monarch shall select and have him treated as becomes his exalted rank He will have all the palaces aud all the wives he wants, as a solace for captivity, and the chief difference between his every-day life in the future and that of the past will doubtless be that he will be restrained from cutting off the heads of a few dozen obnoxious courtiers or relatives as the fancy takes him. A NIG1IT ATTACK ON THE BRITISH. London, December 4.—Dispatches In mi Rangoon state that bands of Indians from the Daeoit tribes, last Monday night, attacked the British troops left to guard the city of Mandalay. Several British soldiers were killed and wounded and a portion of the city was plundered by the Dacoites. The Standard, in commenting upon the affair, severely blames the officers of General Prendergast’s staff for neglecting to take precautions against such an outbreak.

An Advance In Iron. Pittsburgh, Pa., December 4.—Iron ,Sealers report an advance oi 91 on pig metal and flity cents on ore within twen-ty-four hours. This has been brought about by the steadily increasing demand for the commodities, especially here, and is the flrsi apparent substantial evidence oi a revival of the Iron trade. Busiuess >o the city is reported good. The mHls are booking plenty of orders at present, ami, through the use and economies ol natural gas, they have a decided advantage over the trade in general outside ol the Western Pennsylvania Held. The Shoemakers' Strike. Cincinnati, O., December 4.—The shoemakers’ strike still continues. The cutters and Stockers are Ann in their demands for an increase, while the manufacturers say that it would bo suicidal to add to their wage list with the present condition of trade. The strikers claim that better wages are paid in Philadelphia thau here, and this question figures as an issue in the case. On the contrary, the manufactures say that the conditions art-|diflerent in Philadelphia, and that, as a matter ol fact, men here are better plaid than there. Meetings are held dally, but there is no prospect of an immediate set. tlement.
