NOT DEAD BUT SLEEPETH. Chicago's Murdered Mayor Lying in State. The Remains Reposing in the City Hall. Tearful Throngs Gaze Upon the Face of the Bead. Tha Fnnarat to Take Place Today—The Knilre City la Mourning — The Murderer Experience! Hough Treatment. By tbe Aftoctatod Press. Cuiivgo, Oct. 31. —The remains of the late Mayor Harrison were borne to the city hall today to lie in state. Dense crowds thronged the streets and side walks for blocks around the Harrison mansion on Ashland boulevard previous to the start. In the main it wns not a fashionable throng, but it was such a one as in ISM he liked to mcve among and speak with. A solemn stillness prevailed as eight stalwart fire department captains emerged bearing the coffin. Kight police captains followed, sharing honor* as pall bearers. Tlie cortege waß a long one and its progress to the city hall, through the heart of the city, a distance of two miles, consumed considerable time. The utmost simplicity characterized the march to the city hall. The hearse was a perfectly piain black vehicle, with no nodding plumes, and no music re sounded übov.3 the tread of the feet foi- lowing the remains. Meantime a great throng hud gathersd about the city hall —men. women and children. As the cortege approached, hats were dolled in reverent silence. As the hearse stopped j 1 before the entrance, the strains lof Chopin's funeral march re , sounded from a baud on tbe steps, and las the <v-k«: waa borne within, sobs were beard on every side. The casket was deposited on a cata falque in the main corridor, surrounded by Moral offerings. The doors were opened, and a seemingly endless stream of people began moving past iv two lines. All day long they passed rapidly, seeming as if they would continue all I night if permitted. They looked upon ■ ; face perfectly natural in the peacelnlness of death. Tbe dead mayor looked us if j : sleeping. The funeral will take place tomorrow morning from the Church of the Epi ] phany on Ashland boulevard. An hour i beiore the eervice tbe remains will be taken from the city hall to the church. The funeral procession will proceed from tbe cborch to Graceland cemetery. The column will be a large one, many societies haviLg epplit d for place iv tue i line. The j.-.ibUc schools, 10-.-nl ot | trade, bauks and other places of busi ; ness will be closed tomorrow ont of re spect for the dead. Preudergr.st. Harrison's murderer, ia having a rough time in jail. The otber prisoners seize every opportunity of : jeering at the wretch and shriek impre [ cations at bim. so exercise outside his i cell ie made prjcticuliy impossible. To- i | dsy the assassin seemed for the hrst : time to realize his position. All along he apparently labored nnder the de lueion that his companions in crime would look up to him. But today he 1 seemed to understand that he was ! abhorred, even by hardened criminate, as a cowardly aeaassin. THE UBIQUITOUS CRANK. I Another Lunatic makes a Demand for #50(10 New York, Oc-t. —Sergeant Pagan |of the Kast Thirty-fifth street station was behind his desk this morning when a wild-looking man entered and in a fierce voice demanded $5000. Seeing her had a crank, to contend with, and in order to gain time, Fagan invited the man into the waiting room. The two were talking when Patrolman John entered. "I owe this man *5000," Fagan said. "Officer, take him down to the bank and see that he gets it." The crank joyfully followed Rose.

Mldsahuws Oolng to other Expositions. Chicago, Oct. 31.—Them was a de cidtd diminution in the attendance at the fair today. Though officially closed last night, the gates are still open and the attractions'unchanged, but it is evi dent that tbo Chicagoatie have about completed their visits, and the outside world made its calculations to depart when the aflicial end cume, not antici pating the gateß would continue to swing on their hinges. Svime of the ex hibitors will go direct to the midwinter fair in San FrauciEco. A number of tbe plaisance attractions are going there: othets are going to the Atnrtista exposi tion at Augusta,Ga.,which opens Novem ber 14th and continues until December Mill. The manager* of the last-named exposition have arranged with some who hav<i feer> retained by California !o .come tt/ Augusta first and proceed thence to the Pacific coast. The exhibitors are not scrambling to get, away. Preparations are going on in all the buildings preparatory to mov ing, but so quietly that visitors are no* annoyed. The plaisance people hate to move. Some of them say they are going to stay two weeks longer, hut Director General Davis says they are not, and today an order was issued prohibiting any one from walking through the plaisance, except by official puss.

She said in part: "Mingled with our regret at neeing the exposition and thia great opportunity for womeu coining to a close, is a feeling of satisfaction that the aims and ends proposed by tbe board of lady managers were carried tb a successful conclusion. We trust such a sentiment has been created that here after no woman will be forced to conceal her sex and identity in order to secure just treatment."

San Franci?co, Oct. 31.—There is now very little hope entertained of ever getting the wreck of the steamer City of New York off the rocks, where she ran last Thursday while passing out the Golden Gate. Until this afternoon the sea has been as smooth as glass. About i noon today the wind began blowing a stilf breeze, which? increased to 2<i knots. Seas broke repeatedly Over the wreck.

I'rlsnners Multllaled In a Manner Too Horrible to Contemplate—A Bour bon Prlncn Among the Missing. * By the Associated I'rosi. Madkid, Oct. 31. — The Bteamship Africa, from Meiilla, arrived at Malaga today and brought the information that General Ortega succeeded in relieving the garrison of Rostro Gordo and Caberizas. '1 he Moors continue to make desultory attacks upon the Spanish for tifications, in spite of the fire of tbe forts, which is continuously directed upon them. It is thought th# Moors will make another attack upon the Spanish forceß before reiniorcing troops arrive there, as it was noticed when the Africa sailed that detachments of Moors were arriving to reinforce tbe alrendy immense horde of native troops surrounding the Spaniaids. The bol dieis at Fort Oamalos are in the worst position, being most exposed to the Arab attack. It is no longer donied that the Arabs and Moors aronnd Meiilla are now betieging the Span iards, and the latter have all they can do to hold their own. Kvery day which elapses without the arrival of reinforce ments increases the gravity of the situ ation and will force Spain lo send more men to the front if site desireß io drive those lighting tribesmen from the hills. Late .—A special dispatch just re ceived here from Meiilla has cauaed quite a commotion. The exact facts in connection with the dispatch are cot made public, but enough is known to warrant the assertion that the military officers are discussing the great diiler enco existing between tbe reports of the number killed and wounded in the last battle before Meiilla, as given out from official sources and those just received, liie latter assert that at least 100 Span iards were killed and that more than ;J0l) were wounded and that over 100 were captured, while others are re ported missing, 'the fate of the wounded, captured and missing is said to be too terrible to contemplate, in view of the shocking manner in which a number of wounded are already known to have been mutilated. The fact that Prince Ferdinand Bour bon is missiug since tbe Spanish attack on the Moors last Friday, hna caused Infanta Isabella . much anxiety. Ihe prince waa last seen clos* to nil battery outside of Fort Cabrorizat, and it is sup posed he succeeded in reaching one of the blockaded forts which have just been relieved. The minister of war bas ordered inquiries to be made in regard to the prince. THE SITUATION IS EUROPE. Uneaaiuesa Felt Over Itussla'a Intimacy With France. Bkhi.in, Oct. 81, —There is no disguis ing the fact that considerable uneasiness exists in Europe at present; and this uneasiness is increasing as the nature of the Franco-Russian alliance becomes known. The Hamburger Nachrichten, in an article which the best informed people assert was at least instigated by Kismarck, accounts for the Russian reply to the French advances on the ground that Russia would be driven into the arms of Frauce by growing suspicions of Germany's intimacy with England. It says: "The Dierbnnd in no way threatens Russia, but as soon as Rursia became suspicious that it would be exercised in defense of England's anW-Russian inter ests, Russia's resentment waa immedi ately aroused." The Nachi ichten also makes the asser tion that a secret treaty exists between Russia aud Italy, by which the farmer agrees to mediate in Italy's favor in Paris, under certain contingencies.

It Waa Intended for a Doctor's Dissect- log Room. Chicago, Oct. 31.—Shortly after mid night last night two men brought a heavy trunk to the Kock Island station and had it checked to Aramosa, la. An hour later, the baggageman, suspecting all was not right, sent for the police and had it opened. They were horrified at find ing it contained the body of a man wrapped in oil cloth. No marks of vio lence were on it. Attached to one of the feet waa a tag, euch as is used at the morgue at the county hospital. It ia supposed the body was intended for dissection.

Tbis city is bo far not ■ damaged. Nitcberoy has suffered bo- ' vere'.y, though no loss of life has re sulted. The provisional government, which haa been firmly established at Desterro and Santa Catherine, is organ izing land forces'. The insurgents have plenty of munitions of war. A decisive action by Admiral Mello is expected shortly. The Rspublica rammed the transport Kio de Janeiro, which veai conveying 11(H) troops to Santos, and 500 of the troopa were drowned. Admiral Mello confirms the truth of this report. He de.ima that he haa any intention of restoring the empire.

No Secret Treaty Between Brazil and the United State*. London, Oct. 31.—The Brazilian min ister in thiß city, in an interview regard ing the alleged secret treaty between the United States and Brazil, is qnoted aa saying: "I received adiepatch from my government yesterday making a state ment similar to the one cabled to the Associated Press. While it ia possible such a treaty ia in general conception, but as yet does not exist, you can depend upon it there is a good understanding between the two repub lics, and that the United States will not permit the restoration of the monarchy jf it can prevent it. The American warships have not gone to Kio de Ja neiro for nothing." Wabiiinuton, Oct. 31. —The report that the Brazilian minister in London stated that he received a telegram from hia government stating that a secret treaty had been made between Brazil and the United Stateß, is not received with credence by the secretary of state and the Brazilian minister here. Men doca, the Brazilian miniater, aaid: "There can certainly be no truth iv the statement. Ido not think tbe Brazilian minister in London made the atatement accredited to him. He certainly has been misrepresented. I know nothing of a treaty having been entered into be tween Brazil and the United States." Secretary Oreßham aaid: "I can acarcely believe the Brazilian minister made any such atatement, for there is not a particle of foundation for it." lie added there waa no understand ing in regard to affairs, co far aa he knew.

The Repeal Bill Can Only Be Passed by Force. ltepealers Already Feeling- Worried About a (Quorum. The Cloture to Be Invoked, >au Voting to Begin I'erhap. Thia Kveolng. Proceeding. In Uoum and Senate. By the Associated Press. Washington, Oct. 31.—The silver men, or tbe niost intense Bilver men in the house, will, it is said, insist that the repeal bill be put through by force, and without any agreement on their part as to the time when debate shall end or anything else. They say they mean to he forced into submission. The mode of procedure in the house tomorrow will probably be as follows: Aa soon as the speaker lava the hill beiore the house, Wilson of West Vir ginia will move that the house con onr in the senate amendments, and ">on that he will demand the previous <t -a tion. Then some one will suggest that time be given for debate. Wilson v, til insist upon the previoua question. Then filibustering will begin. It is doubtful how much strength the silver men wili have, but there is liitle doubt that these men will have eutlh'ient strength to call for the yeaß and nays, and that will force the committee on rules to report a cloture resolution. This will be done if filibustering begins. The repealers have been worried about a quorum, and today could count but I<>s members who voted against ail the amendments when the bill waa pending in the house before; ami if all the other members, about 130. who supported silver in some form, should refuse to vote oa the various motions, it would leave tlie house without a quo rum. Hut it is understood they will uot do this. Bland will be given an opportunity to move the commitment of the bill to his committee on coinage, weights and measures, as euch a motion ia privileged under the Miles. It wil\ of bourse, be voted down. It is probable the rules committee will fix the time for voting on the bill at some time tomorrow evening, perhaps about 5 o'clock. • HOUSE PROCEEDINGS. Uouiiimoaft to Talcs Up the Sil ver KituftKl Kill Kffaitffd. Washington. Oct. 21.—At the opening of the lu/use thia .Doming, Livingston of Georgia asked unanimous consent for the silver repeal bill to he taken up at once. Bland and the other Bilver men objected and the bill went over under the rules till tomorrow. The crowds which filled the galleries were disappointed at this result of the expected exci:ing fight. There wero fully 250 members present when th(p house was called to order. After reading the journal, the joint resolution transferring the world's fair model battleship to the state of Illinois for use as an armory by the state's naval militia, was agreed to. At the conclusion of Gates' on hia bill to reform the naturalization lawa, Tim Campbell of New York served notice that he was opposed to the Knl, and Goldsier of Chicago, who followed, made a scathing denunciation of Ihu SDirit which dictated the naturalization bill. The secretary of the senate at thil point came in with the repeal bill aa passed by that body. Ita presentation created scarcely a ripple, and the house continued with routine business till the morning hour expired. Then Livingston made hia motion for unanimous consent and failed to seenre It, Bland, on behalf of himself and othors. malting a vehement protest. McMillin, from tbe committee on ways and means, then called up the bill to remit the dutiea on the ammunition imported for the use of the navy during | the trouble between the United Statea and Chile. The bill furnished the text ■ for a npeech by Reed. His criticism of Democratic economy led to a very lively tilt between the ex-speaker and Dockery of tho appropriations committee. The bill passed. The debate on the bankruptcy bill wej then resumed Wolverton of Pennßyl* vania Bpoke in support of the bill. Cockran of New York, from the com mittee on ways and means, presented a favorable report on the bill for the aid of the world's fair prize winners' expo sition to be held in New York. Then** 5:17 p. in. the house adjourned. OPENED WITH PRAYER. The Usual Routine Once More Observed In the Senate. Washmoton, Oct. 31.—The senate opened with prayer thia morning for the first time since the 17th of October. iValthall, Irom tbe committee on public lands, reported tha senate bill extend ing the time for final payments on deßert land entries. The committee amended the bill so as to extend the time of pay ment for one year, instead of three, and make it apply to entry men who are dp* cble to pay. Aa amended, the bill passed. A resolution authorizing the commit tee on agriculture and forestry to con tinue during receaa the investigation of the atate of agriculture, authorized by resolutioua Aprii 19, 1892, and March 3, 1893, waa agreed to. Blackburn (Detn.) of Kentucky of fered the following resolution, which waß agreed to: Resolved, That the committee on rules be instructed to inquire and rt« port to the aenate what revision or amendmenta to the rnlea, if any, should jbe adopted to secure a more efficient
