[IMPRESSIVE SCENE IN THE SENATE The President and Cabinet Present at the Exercises. MANY FLORAL TRIBUTES eee! Through the long watches of the night the body of Senator Harris lay in the marble room of the Senate last night, un- cer guard of a file of the Capitol police. This morning the casket containing the remains was opened, and for un hour or tore the sorrowing frierds of the great Tennessee commoner ‘filed through the 1com to take a last look at the face of the man whom in life they had regarded with affection and esteem, and whose memory will be cherished and revered in every Ten- ressee heart in the years to come. At 11 o'clock the casket was closed and was borne into the Senate chamber by eight members of the police, headed by Captain Garden and preceded ‘by Colonel Bright, the sergeant-at-arms. It was de- posited upon a bier in front of the rostrum where Senator Harris had so often pre- sided, and from which he had governed the proceeedings of the great deliberative body when president pro tempore of the Senate. Within a few feet of the bier a crape- éraped seat and chair marked the spot where for a dozen years or more the sena- tor had headed his party in many a bitter partisan contest. Many Floral Tributes. The casket containing the remains was ccvered with black broadcloth, with oxi- dized silver trimmings, and on the plate was inscribed, “Died July 7, 1807. Isham G. Harris, aged 79 years.” It was obscured from view by the floral tributes offered by his friends. At the head rested an im- mense wreath of roses, crowned with two white doves, the offering of Senator Har- ris’ colleagues. Other floral emblems were sent by the Tennessee delegation in the House and Tennessee residents of the city. ‘The Senate chamber was decorated with palms and ferns set against the walls and around the Vice President’s rostrum, while festoons of red ivy leaves hung from the press gallery. Seating accommodat'ons for the officia’s attending the funeral were pro- vided by placing cane-seated chairs in every available spot in the chamber. A row of large leather chairs extended in a semi-circle in front of the Vice President's desk, for the President and cabinet and for the members of Senator Harris’ family. Every seat in the galleries was occupied by the public and those who could not find seats crowded the aisles and doorways. More than two-thirds of those in the gal- lerles were ladies, and during the pro- ress of the ceremonies many showed vis- ible signs of emotion. A Distinguished Gathering. At 12 o'clock noon Vice President Ho- bart called the Senate to order an? prayer was offered by the Rev. Hugh Johnston. The Vice President then announced that pursuant to the order of the Senate the funeral ceremonies of the late Isham Green Harris would be held The members of the Senate ranged themselves in the rear Seats to the left of the Vice President. Soon after 12 o'clock the members of e House of Representa: tiv headed by their chaplain and sergeant-at-arms, were announced. They were met at the main door by two officers of the Senate dressed in black and wearing white sashes across their shoulders, who showed them to the seats provided on the right of the Vice President. They were followed by the Commissioners of the District of Colum- byes, WhO were seated in the front row of The President of the Secretary Sherman, Secretary e, Sec- retary Alger, Attorney General McKenna, Secretary Wilton and Private Secretary Porter, then entered the chamber and were seated’ in the front row of chairs. Th members of the diplomatic corps occ chairs behind the presidential ee mre Secretary John G. Carlisle and ex-Senator Charles H. Gibson were in the chamber to y tribute to their dece: sed friend. United States, with ‘The honorary pallbearers, dressed in black and wearing white sushes and white gloves, were then announc They were Senators Bate, Walthall, Kyle, Berry, Al- len, Turpie, Chilton and Walcott and Rep- resentatives McMillin, Cammack, Richard- son, Benton, Gaines and Norton.’ The fam- ily of the deceased senator entered the chamber from the lobby door and took their seats at the foot of the bier and in front of the pallbearers. A solemn inush fell over the assemblage when all were seated, and the three min- isters who were to perform the services over the body arose in their places at the desk in front of the Vice President's chair. They were Rev. Hugh Johnston, D.D., pastor of the Metropolitan Methodist Epis- copal Church, Rev. Dr. Duphy of Mt. Ver- non Methodist Church South, and Rev. Henry N. Couden, chaplain of the House of Representatives. Short but Impressive Services. The services were short, consisting only of prayers by the three clergymen, but im- pressively solemn. At their conclusion the Vice President announced that the body of the deceased senator would be delivered into the keeping of the Cfficers of the Sen- ate until removed from the city for burial. Senator Bate of Tennessee then arose in his place and moved that the Senate ad- journ. The vote was taken and the Vice President declared the Senate adjourned until Monday. With that the President and his party left the chamber, followed by the diplo- matic corps, the senators and representa- tives, while the galleries -were slowly emptied. In a few minutes the chamber was de- serted save by the uniformed policemen, who sat at the foot of the bier as a guard of honor. To Be Taken to Memphis. The body will remain in the Senate cham- ber until 10 o'clock tonight, when it will be taken to the 6th street station and placed upon the car that fs to carry it to Memphis for interment. The funeral party will leave at 11:10 o'clock tonight over the Chesapeake and Ohio railway. The members of Senator Harris’ family will occupy the private car “Haselmere.”” This is the car which Prest- dert McKinley used in his recent trip to Nashville over the Chesapeake and Ohio railway. The casket containing the body will be placed in the observation compart- ment, at the rear of the car. ‘The other memters of the party will oc- cupy the drawir g room car “Jouna,” which is said to be a magnificer.t specimen of the carbuilder’s art. Mr. W. H. Gregor of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway Company will personally conduct the party and look after their comfort. Diring car service will be furnished throughout the trip, and elec- tric lights and electric fans will lessen the heat. The cars will be attached to the “F. F. V. Limited” of the Chesapeake and Ohio railway, and a fast run will be made. The track {s stone ballasted and steel- railed the entire length and the block sig- nal systems permit a high rate of speed with safety. To Lie in State in Nashville. Nashville will be reached Monday morn- ing, and the body of the distinguished Ten- nesseean will lie in state at the state capi- tol buflding all day, the journey to Mem- phis to be resumed at night. ‘The congressional esccrt will consist of Senators Bate, Walthall, Berry, Turpie, Allen, Deboe, Pettus, Chilton and Wetmore, and ‘Representatives McMillin, Hepburn; Richardson, De Armond, Carr:ack, Norton, Pierce, Stokes, Gaines and McClellan.

Spectal Bulletin, The intense heat of the past ten days in the central valleys, due in part to the stagnation of the atmosphere, has been broken by. the forward movement of the trough of low pressure from Kansas to the lake regions and by the advance of the high pressure area from the north Pacific coast to Colorado. A fall in temperature of twenty degrees in twenty-four hours has been reported from Sioux City and Concordia. The area indicating the fall in temperature has advanced to the 80:h meridian and covers the whole country from that meridian to the Rocky moun- tairs, except northern Louisiana, extreme northeastern Texas, Georgia and South Carolina, where the temperature has ris two degrees. It is probable that this cooler weather will reach the lower lake region this afternoon and the Atlantic states Sunday afternoon, giving cooler weather for several days. Weather conditions—The pressure is high in the Saint Lawrence valley and off the Florida coast. The high pressure area has moved from Idaho to northern Colo- rado, increasing in magnitude, a pressure of 30.26 inches being reported from Den- ver. A trough of low pressure extends frcm Texas to Lake Superior and is moving slowly eastward. Rain has fallen in this trough, the middle slope, the lower Mis- sissippi valley, the south Atlantic states and in New England. = ‘The temperature has falen in New Eng- land, the Ohio, Mississippi and Missouri inches) was reported: During the past twenty-four hours—Du- buque, 2.10; Concordia, 2.04.

Harris, s Resolved, That the na(fon h4s lost a pure patriot and constitutional freé government that his state has lost! a public servant whose services stretched over half a cen- tury, and was characterized throughout by unswerving fidelity, unremitting watchful- ness and great ability; that the south loses in him one of its old-time statesmen of in- corruptible character, unsullled honor and loftiest conception of duty, Whose lives have embellished her history and made glorious the record of a century. Resolved, That the high character,patriot- ism and long record of public service con- stitute a rich heritage for Tennesseeans, and furnish inspiration to her humblest sons to aspire to highest station, and that the memory of his virtues and patriotic services will endure as a monument in the + minds and hearts of the people who loved 4 honored_him. 5 “ieesolved, That the secretary furnish copy of these resolutions to the family of the deceased senator. How He Saved the School Funds. One of the most striking epieodes in the life of Senator Harris was his taking pos- session of $700,000 In gold belonging to the school fund of Tenressee. Many stories have been told about this incident, but the following account was related by Senator Harris when he was chairman of the Dis- trict committee to Mr. Chas. Moore, the present clerk of the committee. Senator Harris sajd that in 1862, when Nashville was about to fall into the hands of the federal troops, the state bank of ‘Tennessee had in its vaults something more than $700,000 in gold and silver coin, beside valuable securities. Two private banks, the Unior and Planters’, also held corsiderable amounts of money. Senator Harris, at that time governor of Tennessee, was determined that this’ money should not fall into the hards of the enemy. He per- suaded th officers of the state bank,which acted as the fiscal agent of the state, to remove the bauk’s assets to a point of sefety within the confederate lines. The officers of the private banks, however, were unwilling to make the change and the governor's arguments were unavailing. He theréupon returned to his office and sent to each bank a note in which he said something Ike this: “No doubt you can manage the affairs of your bank better than I can, and I do not desire to undertake the conduct of your busin However, I desire to inform you that rnless you give me your assurance that within three hours that you will re- move your cash and securities to a point of safety within the confederate lines, 1 shall be under the necessity of appointing | a receiver to take immediate possession of your bank, and such recetver will be ac- companied by a file of soldiers to entorce his orders.” - Before the three hours had expired a favorable answer was received from the two private banks. The governor joined the staff of the commanding general of the confederate army as a volunteer aid. He obtained a sufficient guard of soldiers to protect the bank moneys and he moved the assets from one place to another. He formed the habit of going each week to the place where the bank was temporarily lo- cated and personally eounting the cash. In time, he said, he becamd familiar with every bag of coin and its eontents. One day the cashier of the:bank appeared at headquarters with the news'that an agent of the confederate treasury was at the place where the bank was théa located with orders to seize the $700,000 for the military uses of the confederate;government. Gov- ernor Harris obtained a telegraphic order for the agent to suspend operations tem- porarily. He then took? themext train for Richmond, where he called upon President Jefferson Davis. were Governor Harris told ighe Dissident of the he Well understood the confederacy that financial necessities of fhe cohifederate gov- ernment and would frétly give all of his own personal property “to thé government. That $700,000, howevef, belonged to the school fund of the state of. Pennessee, and he did not propose to have one cent of it touched if he could help-it, As an outcome of this vigorous stand on the part of Gov- ernor Harris, President Davis directed that the state fund should not be disturbed. After the surrerder Governor Harris went to the Union general in command and ob- tained a safe conduct and an escort for the conveyance of the money from Grittin, Ga., back to Nashville. The money was taken to the state capital and deposited in a committee room, a receipt being given for the amount. The begs and kegs were broken open and the money lay in heaps on the floor under guard of a file of soldiers until the legislative committee counted the cash ten days later. A remarkably small shortage wes found, considering the cir- cumstances during the ten days the money was lying loose on the floor. J The so-called legislature, which was ap- pointed after Governor.

Every musket cap used in the first battle of Bull Run was placed in the hands of the confederate soldiers through the enercy of Gov. Harris. It came about in this way: On making inquiry he was surprised to find that there was not a musket cap in al; the state of Tennessee. Immediately he telegraphed to the war office at Richmond to know if a supply of musket caps could be had for Fis troops. The answer came that they could not; the war office was not prepared to supply any troops with musket caps. Application was then made to one governor after another in the south, until the entire field was ransacked for musket caps, but none could be found. There was nothing to 4o but to establish a cap fac- tory, and this Gov. Harris did. With some difficulty he found artisans capable of un- dertaking the work, and a factory was equipped and the work of turning out mus- ket caps begun. As fast as possible the facilities of the factory were increased; night and day shifts were used, so that the work went on without cessation. It was the only cap factory at the time in the whole confederacy, and from this factory, lccated in Nashville, Tenn., the army of northern Virginia was supplied with all the musket caps used in the first battle of Bull Run. o—__ PERILOUS RIDE OF RUNAWAY GIRLS, Jumped on the Pilot of a Moving En- gine and Rode Twenty Miles, From the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. In order to get away from home, Grace Wilson and Jessie Betts, two seventeen- year-old Nebraska City girls, sprang upon the pilot of the engine pulling the Nebras- ka Mmited express the other day and rode gayly into Omaha. The quick work was necessary to avoid their parents, and the passengers were treated to the spectacle of the young girls making the daring leap as the wheels of the locomotive began to revolve. The train soon gained a high rate of speed, and with their teeth set and long hair flying in the air the girls clung to the stanchions of the pilot. The engineer was not aware of the girls’ perilous position until they made the next stop twenty miles north. Then they were put in one of the passenger coaches and taken to Omaha. They were not disturbed over their exciting ride, but rather appeared to enjoy the ex- traordinary adventure. They are now be- ing detained at the police station until rel- atives can be communicated with. The two girls set out upon the adven- turous trip with determination. They left their homes in Nebraska City at night, taking as their fole baggage a pair of curl- ing irons. They hid until the Missouri Pa- cific express pulled out, then, that the trainmen might not see them, they sprang upon the pilot of the engine. Upon their arrival at Omeha the girls hired a room at a hotel. But a few hours elapsed before the police were notified of the runaway, and the girls were located and taken to the police station. valleys, and on the middle slope, and has remained stationary elsewhere.
