State JJuriiis; the Afternoon aiidIViglit. BUFFALO, Sept. 15. Buffalo today be came a city of mourning. The decora tions of the Pan-American Exposition gave way to the symbol of sorrow. The black drapery of the city's streets muf fled the tolling bells of the churches. Bits of crepe appeared on every sleeve. The sorrow was everywhere apparent. In the morning a simple service took place at the residence on Delaware ave nue where the President died. Only the immediate family and the friends and political associates of the Eresident were present. The scene there was pathetic in the extreme. Then the body was borne through solid walls of living humanity, bare-headed and grief-stricken, to the City Hall, where it. lay in state. There the remarkable demonstration oc curred which proved how close the Presi dent was to the hearts of the people. Ar rangements had been made to allow the public to view the body from the time it arrived, at about 1 :30 o'clock until about 5 o'clock. But the people were wedged Into the streets for blocks. "When 5 o'clock 'came 46,000 people had passed, and the crowd waiting below in the streets seemed undiminished. It was decided to extend the time until midnight. Then) for hours longer the streeta "were dense wfth people, and a constant etream flowed past the "bier. "When the doors "were closed at mid night it was estimated that 80,000 people had viewed the remains. Thousands of disappointed ones were still in the streets. The body will lie in the City Hall until morning. It -will be taken to the station by a military escort tomorrow morning, and at 8:30 the funeral train will start for Washington. Mrs. McKinley bore up bravely today during th 'service at the Milburn resi dence, and' Dr. Rlxey, her physician, thinks she -will be able to support her trying part In the state funeral at "Wash ington. A Somber Day. The daywas gray and .cheerless. Heavy clouds hung over the city, at times breaking to let through a rift of sunshine, and then threatening to-let loose a down pour upon the gathering multitude. The air was humid and heavy, and only a light -wind from the south stirred the drooping flags and the emblems of mourn ing. The very elements seemed to lend tlt tlng accompaniment to the scene of sor row about to be enacted. Long before the time set for the funeral services the vicinity of the Milburn house was astir with preparations. At 9 o'clock long platoons of police officers, mounted and on foot, arrived at the grounds and were posted In details along the streets approaching the house. For a block In each direction the streets were roped off to keep back the gathering crowds. The vigilance of the officers in keeping back those not entitled to admission within the reserve area was redoubled. Those sum moned to the service, the uniformed escort of marchers and those whose business Im peratively brought them there, passed within the' four-square precinct about the house where the body of the dead chief reposed. Major-General John R. Brooke, who was personally In command of all the forces participating In the escort, arrived at 10 o'clock. He was In fatigue uniform, with service sword at his side. Around his left arm was wound a heavy band of crape. "With him were his aids and half a score of other officers, all In fatigue uniform, with the badge of mourning on their sleeves. Assembling: of the Military. The time was now approaching for the service. The tramp of the assembling military could be heard, and the walk leadlngvup to the Milburn house began to be lined with those who were to be as sembled about the bier. Even amid the stir of assembling a solemn and awe like silence prevailed, and the division of the escort came to their posts with silent bands. At 10:30 o'clock the military and naval detachments took temporary station on "West Ferry street, immediately around the corner from the Milburn house. First came Companies I and L of the Four teenth United States Infantry, stationed at Fort Porter, under command of Cap tain John R. M. Taylor, marching with the steady tread and bearing of regulars. Following them came a company of the Seventy-third Coast Artillery, now on duty at the Pan-American Exposition, in com mand of Captain John P. "Welsser. These were the men who had been near the President at the moment he was shot, and who took part in the struggle -with his assassin. The National Guard of the State of 'New York was represented by picked .companies from the Seventy fourth and Sixty-fifth Regiments, under command of Captain Howland. Then the trappings of the military arm of the service gave way to those of the United States Navy, as 50 men from the United States gunboat Michigan, under command of Colonel L. T. Mlnnix, swung Into position alongside their military brethren In arms. The naval contingent had arrived only this morning, in order that all branches of the military, naval and marine service might be fittingly represented. At their head marched a de tachment of marines in their dark-blue uniforms and with large gllt-trlmmed hel mets. After them came the bluejackets. Sailors and marines marched with their short carbines at shoulder arms. The en tire military and naval force 'formed in company front on East Ferry street, and there waited for the services to begin. Cabinet Officials Appear. Meantime the members of the Cabinet, officials high in the Gcyenvncnt service ana near irienas oe me martyrea resi dent began to fill the walks leading up to the entrance to the .Milburn residence. They came separately and in groups, some walking. Secretaries "Wilson and Hitch cock drove up together, and Governor Odell, of New York, followed with his secretary and. Representative Llttauer, of New York. Following the Governor came Major-General Roe, commander of the National Guard of New York, with his staff of aids, all in full uniform. Secre tary Root walked to the house with Mr. and Mrs. Sprague, at -whose house he has been guest since first summoned to the city. Two and two, a long line of men of dig nified bearing marched up to see the house the foreign commissioners sent to the Exposition, and after them the state commissions. Among the foreigners was a Colonel of the Slexican Army in his full uniform of black with scarlet stripes and peaked gld-bralded cap. Then came the other members of the Cabinet in the city, Secretary Long, Attorney-General Knox, Postmaster-General "Smith, the con fidants and friends of the late President, Senator Hanna, Judge Day; Governors Odell, Yates and Gregory; Representatives Alexander and Ryan, Major-General Brooke, E. H. Butler, IL H. Kohlsaat and many others. Arrival of the President. It was Just eight minutes befor the opening of the service when a covered barouche drove up to the house bringing President Roosevelt and -Mr. and Mrs. "Wilcox, at whose house he is a guest. The President looked very grave as he alighted and turned to assist" Mrs. Wil cox from the carriage. His face did not relax Into a smile to the salutations of those nearest the carriage, but he ac knowledged the greetings silently with an Inclination of the head. . He passed up the well-iilled walk, and 'those waiting to gain entrance fell back, making a narrow lane through -which Mr. Roosevelt passed along to the house." As the President passed within the house and the services were about to be gin, the long line of soldiers and sailors swung in cdluntns of fours Into Delaware avenue' and formeo In battalion front along the, beautlf uf thoroughfare oppo site the house and Immediately facing it. On the extreme left were the regulars, On the right the sailors-and marines, and in the center the National Guardsmen. They stood at parade rest, with colors lowered, each flag wound about its staff and -bound with crape. The front of the house and the lawns had been cleared by this time and the swep of the avenue was now deserted, save'for the rigid, motion less ranks across from the house. The service had aready begun when down the avenue "four high-stepping black horses came Into sight, drawing -the hearse which was to bear the casket of the dead President. It was a 'heavy ve hicle, without plumes,.or any trappings lo jelJeve" thekead itfack. The horses, "too, were not plumed or caparisoned,- and all four of them were black from nose to tip of tall. Two men were on the box, the driver, with long lines to the tandem pairs, and the groom with folded aims, sitting motionless. Outside the house all was silence and waiting. Within the house of death was woe unspeakable. The Murdered Chleftnin. In the drawing-room to the right of the hall, as President Roosevelt entered, the dead chieftain was stretched upon his bier. His head was to the rising sun. On his face was written the story of the Christian forbearance with which he had met his martyrdom. Only the thinness of his face bore mute testimony to the pa tient suffering he had endured. He was dressed as he always was In life. The black frock coat was buttoned across the breast where the first bullet of the as sassin had struck. The black string tie below the standing collar showed the little triangle of white 'shirt front. The right hand lay at his side. The left was across his breast. He looked as millions of "his countrymen have seen him, save for one thing. The little badge of the Loyal Legion, the only decoration he ever wore, which was always In the left lapel of his coat, was missing. And those who remarked it spoke of It and after the body was taken to the City Hall the little badge which he prized through life was placed again where it had always been. The body lay in a black casket on a black bear-skin rug. Over the lower limbs was filing the starry banner he had' loved so well. The flowers were few, as "befitted the simple nature of the man. A spray of white chrysanthemums, a flam ing bunch of blood-red American Beauty roses, and a magnificent hunch of vio lets were on the casket. Behind the head, against a pier mirror between the two curtained windows, rested two superb wreaths of white asters and roses. These were the only flowers in the room. The sentries, one from the eea and one from the land, guarded the remains. They stood in the window embrasures behind the head of the casket. The one to the north was a Sergeant of Infantry. In the other window was the sailor, garbed in the loose blue blouse of the Navy. ' JLlone "With Her Dead. The family had taken leave of their loved one before the others arrived. Mrs. McKlnley, the grief-crushed widow, had been led Into the chamber by her physi cian, Dr. Rlxey, and had sat awhile alone with him who had supported and com forted her through all their years of wed ded life. 'But though her support was gone, she had not broken down. Dry eyed, she gazed on his lace. She did not seem to realize that he was dead. Then she was led away by Dr. Rlxey and took up her position at the head of the stairs, where she could hear the services. Mrs. Hobart, the widow of the Vice-President during Mr. McKinley's- first term; La Fay ette McWIlliams, of Chicago; Miss Bar ber, Miss Mary Barber and Dr. Rlxey remained with her. The other members of the family, Mr. and Mrs. Abner Mc Klnley, Miss Helen McKlnley, Mrs. Dun can, Miss Duncan, Mr. and Mrs. Barber and Dr. and Mrs. Baer, had withdrawn In the library to the north of the drawing room In which the casket lay, and here also remained other friends. The friends and public associates of the dead President all had opportunity to view the remains before the service began. The members of the Cabinet had taken their leave before the others arrived. They remained seated beside their dead chief while the sad procession viewed the body. i (Concluded on Second Page.) 0 ! v 1 E FROM CRUISE Philadelphia Returns With Naval Battalion. HENRY L. EARLY DIED AT SEA He Was Taken "With Pneumonia the Third Coy Out Voyage "Was "Without Incident Except for a KeYi Minor Accidents. More In sorrow than In rejoicing the Naval Battalion of the Oregon National Guard returned last night from a nine days' cruise on the cruiser Philadelphia. With them they brought the body of one JAMES B. a THE NEGRO WHO STRUCK DOWX CZOLGOSZ AFTER HE FIRED THE SECOXD SHOT. James B. Parker, of 450 Sixth avenue, New York City, Is the negro who stood directly ahead of Czolgosz when he shot President McKlnley and who hurled him to the ground with a terrific blow after the second shot was fired. Parker was born In Atlanta 43 jears ago. In slavery. He left New York last Spring to -wait In an exposition cafe. He la a giant In size, standing oer 6 feet, and as erect as an Indian. The assassin ' tore his lest buttons entirely off In the struggle. Parker was at one time a waiter In the Kimball House. Atlanta. of their comrades one who had gone out as full of Joyous anticipation as any of them, but who did not live to return. The young man was Henry L. Early, a mem ber of the Third Division of the battalion. He was taken with pneumonia the third day out, September 8, and Saturday after noon, while the cruiser was waiting out side the mouth of the Columbia for calm weather so that It could cross In, he died. Yesterday afternoon, when the "vessel landed at Astoria, Early's body was taken ashore with full naval honors. The regu lar crew of the vessel lined up on the star board side, and the battalion on the port side. .Borne by several of his comrades, Early's body was taken to the side of the vessel, and lowered Into a boat, while the marines stood at "present arms' and the others with uncovered heads. Across the coffin, which was made on shipboard, was spread the Stars and Stripes. Com ing back from Astoria last night Early's body was In the baggage-car, and this fact had the effect of putting a damper on the spirits of the other young men. To two of the members of the battalion the occa sion lent a touch of sadness. These werQ Ensign Ned Smith and Quartermaster Eu gene Leer. They were the dead boy's cousins, and to them fell the task jf breaking the news to his waiting parents. The father and mother were at the train, to meet their boy and were almost pros trated by the news of his death. The father is the representative of a sewing machine house, and Early himself was a painter by trade. Two of his sisters are dead, and he was the sole remaining child. He was 20 years of age. The Early residence is at Ockley Green. The family has lived here but a few weeks. Incidents of the Cruise. Aside from the death of young Early the voyage was enjoyable, and resulted in much good to the battalion. All the boys agreed to this, although they had to work hard from the time they left Astoria until they returned. It was not a pleasure cruise, and the youth who went away with the impression that it was going to be a picnic was undeceived be fore he had been long at sea. The Philadelphia left Astoria on Sep tember 6. She proceeded almost Imme diately to port Angeles, where she was for three days. The stay at Port Angeles would have been shorter had not a heavy fog come up, which made leaving lmpractlable. The members of the battalion had to get up at 5 o'clock every morning. Their flrat duty was to scrub the deck, after which a coat of sand was sprinkled over it. Then their duty was to scour the brass work of the ship and of the guns. After this they had breakfast, for which their hard work usually well prepared them. After breakfast they swept the decks of the coat of sand. Breakfast and the sweep-down over, the regular work of the day began. This varied. Some days they -would go through one drljl, and some another. They were drilled in every duty that falls to the lot of ordinary sailor of the navy, and Lieutenant-Commander W. S. Hughes, of the Philadelphia, saw to It that every detail was observed. Despite the strictness of Commander Hughes' discipline, however, the boys unite in pronouncing him one of the finest gentlemen that ever stood on a quarter-deck. Following is a list of the drills which the members of the battalion were put through: Sub-caliber drill, secondary drill, with three to six-pound guns; great gun drill, signal drill, single-stick drill, revol ver practice. Infantry drill, rifle practice, physical drill, boat drills both sailing and rowing; abandon-ship drill, fire drill, col lision drill, heaving lead, and steering, each man taking his turn at the wheel. The target practice with the heavier guns was not held until the vessel was about 125 miles out at sea. Then a naval target was placed, and the vessel steamed around It at a rate of about six knots an hour, while the practice was on. The shots were fired nt distances varying from 1100 to 2C00 yards. Port Angeles was the only point touched, aside from Astoria, where the battalion embarked and where it disembarked. The voyage to Port Angeles and the lJ-mlle run to sea were the only trips made. The vessel was outside the mouth of th Columbia River Thursday afternoon, but owing to rough seas did not enter until yesterday afternoon, when the entrance was made with ease. The news of Presi dent McKinley's death was sent to the Philadelphia Saturday afternoon by a tug which was passing out. The fact that a member of the battalion happened to be seasick did not excuse him rrom military duty by any means. So long as he was able to do anything he was kept at work. Only the certificate I of the doctor that he was too 111 to work I would excuse him. The members of the 1 battalion say that fully 50 per cent of their number were troubled more or less with seasickness at various times during the voyage. PARKER ) Several accidents oqcurred during the nine days. In the great gun practice one day,- the forward six-Inch gun was fired at highest elevation and became dis mounted In consequence. It was out of commission for the remainder of the voy age. A Quartermaster belonging to the regular, crew of the vessel was knocked off the after bridge one night in heavy weather by a swaying boat which was fastened in the davits near the bridge. 'He fell heavily and landed on his facet skinning it severely. He was not other wise injured. . One night while the ash pits were be ing manned, a member of the battalion, whose name could not be ascertained last night, wa9 hit with a trolley and knocked i senseless. He was brought around all right, though he felt somewhat dazed for awhile. In" the messroom the members of the battalion ate on one side, and the crew of the vessel on the other. Once, during a heavy rolling sea, the mess table and benches of the crew were pifhed clear across the room without a second'. warn ing, demolishing dishes and everything In sight, and scattering "he viands all over the room. Occaslonnljy the pitching- seas would throW the cooks out of their gal leys onto the deck In a heap. Thursday night, while the Philadelphia was outside the mouth of the Columbia, the steam steering gear, to which the rudder Is attached, broke, and thereafter the hand steering gear had to be used. The same night the main, steam pipe broke, and from that time on the auxll liary steam pipe had to be used. This did not furnish the desired amount of s'team, tout the crew had to be satisfied with It. The battalion consisted of two divisions, the First and the Third. Both were un der command of Lieutenant W. T. Bird, of Portland. The Second Division, of As toria, disbanded some time ago. Last night, when the battalion left the train, It marched to the Armory under command of Lieutenant Bird, and disbanded. Every member of the battalion denies the story sent out from Astoria to the effect that the town, was "painted red" by the boys the day they arrived there pre paratory to going out on the cruise. This story was published not only In the As toria papers and telegraphed to the Port land papers, but to the San Francisco Ex aminer and Chronicle as well. The mem bers of the battalion say there was not a shadow of foundation for it, and that it was manufactured out of whole cloth. Everyone who was on the cruise says that Drs. Lewis and McCullough, the ship's surgeons, and Dr. George B. Story, the battalion surgeon, did everything hu man and medical skill could do to save young Early's life, but without avail. GRIEF AT MANILA. Filipinos Thought Bryan "Would Suc ceed to the Presidency, MANILA, Sept. 15. The profoundest grief Is manifested by every class In the community over the death of President McKlnley.
