New Yoas, Oct. 2d. drover Cleve
land wa royally wtlcomed tun htat
taa Imperial hotel by 200 of h a towna
tacn wuea the Hullalojan club and
Mvenoa club of the city of Ntw
York, tne membership of which ia i
ciusively cntiaed to tiatiVc of Huf
faio, now re.dnt of thi city, ten
dered him a reception. Mr. Cleveland
i a inj iiber of thi club, but tonight
w a thehrtttiu-.e during the three mouths
of it eiutence that tie nad been pres
ent at auy of their meetings. 11. C.
llenrd.ct, pre. dent of the club, wtl
comed Mr. Cleveland to the fold in an
appropriate ipeech and then called on
h:tn for a speech. Amid much enthu
iam Mr. Cleveland arose and spoke a
follows:
"You have among you one at leat,
who, tn;rty-two year ao, belonged
with me to the democratic club which
bad in hand the task of electuiStephen
A. Ooulaa to the presidency. Many a
uijjnt we marched side by ide, in yel
low cape aad bearing torcnes. I do
not believe either of u supposed for a
moment that our candidate could bit
defeated, provided we marched far
enough and made noise enough and
had enough of kerosme. oil running
from our torches down our backs.
"I am thu reminded of a time when
my participation in tho activities cf
politics meant enthusiasm for a man or
a cause, a great deal of excitement and
noie, plenty of dope aud confidence,
generally followed by bitter d. ap
pointment, soou forgotten. I hardly
think you will be surprised to know
that in when my relation to poli
t.cs ha a rather more ot;r complex
ion, I recall mv share in the campaign
of ISilO, and all. its work aad disap
pointment with comparative pleasure,
ouieradothe marcmng aud shouting
r?.ow, but I l-elieve they are enjoying
the campaign more than 1 am. Some
how the inmg looks more serious to
me now, and 1 cannot help thinking
that I am rather more closely related
to the present campaign than I was
when Douglas tan lor presidtnt."
Hi Great Uvirullou.
You know how devoted I am to tho
principles of the democratic party, and
your knowledgH of me will, 1 am sure,
acquit me of ins ncerity when I exprea
the opinion that the resultof the pend
ing political struggle means more to
our country and our people than any
in which you or I have ever been en
gaged. Oa one side the claim is de
fiantly and arr gantly announced that
the functions of our government may
bo used directly for the benefit of cer
tain special interests, with, at best, a
very remote regard to the welfare of
the masses of the people. In opposi
tion to this an appeal is made to our
fellow citizens to hold fast to the doc
trine that their government should at
all times be administered directly for
tnem, and that they enouid not be
obliged to receive as their .share of the
blessings of the free government the'
maintained, the small portion whicn
may filter through to them in the pro
cess of making special beneficiaries
rich. In other words, the democratic
party is insisting upon the honest ap
pl.cation of the rule that a government
by the people should be a government
for the people.
Tim Intelligent nufTaloman.
"It is as needless as it is foreign to
my purpose to discuss in detail, before
those so thoughtful and intelligent as
my Huffalo friends, the differences be
tween the political principles and pur
poses presented to our people for their
approval, I only desire to assure you
that the gratification which ycur per
sonal attachment afford, is greatly
rnciianced by the consciousness that it
1 thu attachment of those who are
thoughtful and patriotic, and by the
conviction that tho support that you
give m an organised way, to your old
townsman, cannot create in your
m nJ the least suspicion that such
support 1 in aid of principles at all in
consistent with your highest duty as
American Citizen. It only remains for
ine t ay that, whatever roav be the
result f the pending campaign, 1 shall
always remember as its most pleasing
incident, this occasion aad the evidence
it furnishes of the consideration and
devot on of the I'.uffalo friends I see
here about me."

olis ia Mourning.
WASiu.so.ros, Oct. 26. The president
joined the While House family at
breakfast this aioruing at the usual
hour. Ilab.tually considerate of
others, he appear to be hold. tig back
his own deep grief in order to lighten
the burden of those around him. lie
passe much of his time with his little
grandson, Penjanun Harrison McKee.
P.etween the two the experienced
soldier, Btattaniau and president and
the light hearted, manly little Uy
there has always been a touching bond
of affection and an intimacy which
overlooks the disparity of years.
The remains of Mrs. Harrison will be
placed in the casket this morning and
transferred to the Kast room, where
they will remain until after the service
torn rrow. The houe was then clo.ed
and the family were not interrupted in
tao Ust night with their dead.
Nuprriuf Court Adjourn.
Secretary Flkins returned to the city
today, and with Mrs. Klkms, hastened
to call on the president. It is stated
that by the president' express demre,
no order will bo issued by any of the
executive officers closing the depart
ment tomorrow, although it i highly
probable that public business will en
tirely be suspended within tho I nitcd
States supreme court. Today Chief
Ja.-tice holler announced that as a
mark of re.-pect to the president of the
l iiitcd States and to the memory of
Mrs. Harrison, the court would ad
journ until Friday morning.
At about noon President Harrison
sent for private secretary Haltord and
!a.d that if there were any important
papers waiting in the otlice, to whicn
tns signatnre was necessary, he would
examine them. Fpecially if there
were any recommendations for pardon
awaiting his action he wanted them
brought to his desk. He said that he
wanted no person to suffer because of
the sorrow- that had rome to him. It
seemed rather to make him more solici
tious to send joy and comfort if he
could to the lives and homes of dis
tressed and suffering ones. Two appli
cations for pirdon, with favorable re
ports from the Department of Justice
were laid before hint and he at once
signed them.
The Funeral Servbrea.
The funeral services at the White
House tomorrow will bo severely sim
ple and quite brief. They will begin
promptly at 10 o clock and continue

from the scriptures adapted to tne oc
casion, closing with a short invocation.
The Kev. Dr. Uartlett will theu read
the Scripture lesson, following which

church, recesseu in the ad mining par
lor, will sing: "I Heard the Yoico of
Jesus say Come unto Me and llcst."

prayer, and as those present are leav
ing the room, the choir will render

SHROUDED IN GLOOM.
Indianapolis Puts On Mourning for Mrs.
Harrison.
IspiAvarous, Oct. 2t?. Many of the
business firms along Illinois, Washing
ton and Pennsylvania streets, though
the funeral cortege of Mrs. Harrison
will pas to tne First Frebytenan
church Friday, began to drape their
buildings today, nd the city presents
a marked contrast to its appearance
lar-t week, when it was arrayed in bunt
ing in honor of the great discovery.
The drapery consits of black bands
encircling the buildings from cornice
to foundation, tastefully festooned
with white of the same material. All
of the business houses will be similarly
draped by tomorrow evening, and
many cf the private residences wall
show appropriate tokens of sorrow.
F'or the time leing and un
til after the obsequies there will
to no political demonstrations in
the city, both parties having canceled
all engagements out of respect to the
dead mistress of the White nouse.
When the lemains reach this city
they wall te transferred directly to the
church, where a short service will be
held, and from the church they will be
taken to Crown Hill cemetery for in
terment. The funeral cortege will
move north on Pennsylvania street, to
Vermont street, then east to Delaware
street and north to Seventh street, and
west to Meridian street, tho principal
thoroughfare leading to the cemetery.
This route will take the cortege past
the family residence on Delaware
street, which was the home of Mrs.
Harrison for many years prior to her
ren:oval to Washington, and with
which was associated so many of her
most pleasant memories.
Will Attend the Obsequies.
Chicago, Oct. 1M. Secretary F'oster,
General Schoheld and Capt. Wm. Mer
idith, chief of bureau of printing and
engraving, will leave for Indianapolis
tomorrow morning to attend the funer
al of Mrs. Harrison, Friday. An acci
dent has kept Secretary Koster in town
till now. When it wa announced that
the funeral services were to take place
on Thursday, he saw it was useless to
try and reach Washington in time to
accorrfpany the remains to their last
resting place. He at once telegraphed
to tho president's secretary, Mr. Hal
ford, but received no reply uutil this
morning.
Will Observe Her Funeral.
CmcAoo, Oct. 26. Mayor Wash
burne today issued order that all city
denartments oxci titincr thoso of no-
lice, tire and health, should be closed
Kriday, the day of Mrs. Harrison's
funeral.
GRAIN DLOCKADE.
Railroads Are Unable to Handle Chi
cago Grain.
Chicago, Oct. 2t'. No relief to tho
growing grain blockade in Chicago was
found today. On th other hand sev
eral western roads, alarmed at the way
grain cars were piling up, instructed
tneir agents to load no more crain un
til further orders. Put more thun 10,
000 car aro already loaded on western
tracks enroute to Chicago. lnless the
10.0UO or more cars already here aie
unloaded there is danger of the great
est blockade in history. The hopes of
western lines are largely that eastern
roads will find means of lifting tho
blockade, but ' no encouraging word
came today. Probably a.000 cars were
refused by them during the day.
This shortage of cars seems only to
redouble the demand for them in the
west. Tho St. Paul is four thousand
behind its orders, tue Atchison is prob
ably six thousand behind and a conser
vative estimate is that western roads
could, if they had them properly
placed according to the demands, load
forty thousand cars tomorrow. The
main trouble is that four-fifths of the
business is east bound, and long lines
of nii'ty cars muf-t bo hauled back for
new loa Is.

Two Louisville Swells
FOR MASHING A SOUBRETTE
The Young Men Were Prominent in
Society and Their Female Friends
are Greatly Shocked.
Locisvhle, Ky., Oct. 23. "Don't
monkey with the soubrette," is a
motto ta which two society young men
of this city will henceforta keep near
est their hterts. The lesson which
they had previously failed to learn wa
impressed on them tonight in a man
ner very sensational. One of the
young men is Chailes S. Hermany,
son of the superintendent of the Louis
ville waterworks, and a prominent pol
itician. Young Hermany moves in
swell oociety, but he had a fondne.-? for
the chorus girl and soubrette which
was insupprcsMble. The other young
man, who received a severe Hogging, is
unknown, a he lied without anow of
tight, it occurred in the parlor of a
prominent hotel, and was administered
by Kdward 11. Salter, manager of the
Ole Olsou company, playing here this
week.
A Hwttt Suteen Sonbretl.
Miss Lottie Williams is a pretty sou
brette in the company. She is only 10
years of age, and her fresh beauty had
a peculiar attraction for Hermany and
his friend. They had several times
played the same game successfully, and
last evening when Miss William" lei t
the theater for the hotel, in company
with Manager Salter and hi wifv,
they followed. ICarly thi evening
they called at the hotel and sent a note
to Mi.s Williams. Its contents are not
known. In a few minutes the young
men, who sat in the parlor, heard
some one comiug, and they began to
pose themselves gracefully, when Man
ager Salter entered, with the note in
his hand.
lloth Were Knocked Out.
Suddenly his athletic arm Hew to the
right and to the left, and the mashers
lay sprawling on the velvet carpet.
One of them sprang up, but the man
ager saved him the trouble of walking
down stairs by throwing him over the
banisters. The other tried to fight it
out, but ho was badly beaten and
knocked through a large glass door.
Anrofficer ran in, and tho young man
exclaimed: "Da you dare arrest me.
You don't know who I am. I'm the
son of the superintendent of the water
works, aud I'll work a week for re
venge." He lives in a large brown
stone house on F'ourth avenue, and his
female friends are shocked.

ABSORBED DY THE READINQ.
The Boston & Maine Road Bought by
McLeoJ.
P.ostox, Oct. 25. A grtat railroad
combination, rumors of which have
lee.u in the a:r for several weeks, was
consummated today. Parties largely
interested in the l'.oston .V Maine, aad
Philadelphia V Heading railroads have
made a friendly alliance.
This explains the surprising activity
and sharp advance ia the market price
m Poston iV Maine stock during the
past fornight. Vanderbuilt interests
were not the purchasers, as currently
believed, but President Mcleod of th
Heading, his friends and afoo;atce,
and it is known that they have ac
quired large blocks of the stock. This
resulted in the resignation of William
T. Hart, a director ot the l'.oston A
Maine. The vacancy was filled by the
election of Archibald A. Mclx-od, presi
dent of the Philadelphia A Heading
railroad. President Frank Jones cf
the Post aa .V Maine railroad then ten
dered his resignation and Mr. McLeod
was unanimously elected to the presi
dency of that corporation.
The position of chairman of the
board cf directors was created, and
Mr. Jor.es was chosen, that official
being charged with the executive man
agement ot tne II aton A. Maine system
aa heretofore: He was also chosen
vice president. The Heading road and
allied lines will distribute its enormous
merchandise and coal tiaffic into New
Kngland over the lloston & Maine
system. Poston will be made the cen
ter of its distribution.
F'or some time the minor details of
the new relationship have been under
consideration, but they were not fuijy
formulated until lai-t Monday, when
President McLeod met representatives
of the l'.oston St Maine in New York
and matters were brought to a satisfac
tory conclusion.
