ONE CF THE MOST IMPORTANT ADDITION: to the train was that made by Gov. Foster's party, whose trip in itself was] quite a feature of the day. It was 2| o'clock Saturday morning before Gov., Foster's party, comprising the chief] state and foderal departments, left Oolumbus for Wellsville to meet the funeral train and direct its progress t the carriages in waiting. Mrs. Gar-| field’s features were seen through the heavy veil she wore. The senators nd representatives that were on thel funeral train marched in pairs, and| Ithe guard of honor, headed by Gens.| Hancock, Sherman and Rogers$ brought up the rear. PRIVATE SECRETARY BROWN was alone and went here and there in naking the necessary arrangements. [Mrs. Garfield and family were driven o the regidence of Hon., James Ma.| gon.

Flowers and flags are displayed| fin various positions of the interior, which is decorated with rare plants,) hoice flowers and exquisite floral de signs, two car loads of which arnved] from Cincinnati.

Among those who called on her was her grandson, James| who left a sick bed a 'Williams collegeto attend the funeral.| His walarial sickness has made groat change in his appearance. The healthy looking boy is very much at-| nuated and his usually robust fea. ures are pale and weary looking. To- norrow is his day for a chill, too.

Garficla in life, He had, it is said, often expressed a de. sire that that might bo his resting place when done serving his country| fand countrymen. It is located some miles from the heart of the city at the erminus of Kuclid avenue, ‘‘Cleveland’s pride.” It is a beautiful piece of ground, containing 200 acre nd lying some two hundred and fift; ieet above the level of the lake an verlooking its placid waters. It i laid out after the rural plan, with winding walks, beautiful trees an hrubbery. The cemetery is but eleven lyeara old, having been laid out in 1870, THE KNIGHTS TEMPLAR, who are to take such a prominen jpart 1 the procession, have bee moving about considerably in uniform to-day and attracting much admira ion. Among those who will be here -morrow are Judge Albion, W, 'ourgee, author of ‘‘A Fools Errand,” he sympathy between whom and the) ead president was very close, and W. A. M. Gier, of Hazelton, Pa., elegato to the Chicago conventiol who made himself famous by pers; ontly casting his ballot for Gartield rom the first. HCENES AT THE PUBLIC SQUARE. The scenes at the public square and pon the streets leading to it to-day| ave been unparalleled in the histor; efore sunset, didu’t disperse the Jpeople. Those in charge of the pa- vilion and catafalque, estimate the number who passed in) the line at firom 90,000 to 120,000 persons. From ) o'clock this morning to 9 o'clock to- ight this stream has flowed steadily. 'aking the lowest estimate mentioned above, the number passing in twelve lhours is found to be over 100,000, At 11 p. m., the crowd continued so igreat that it was decided to leave the gates open all night, 80 the body wilk be on view continuously until to-mer- row.
