STORY OF HIS HOMECOMING
Canton Multitude fireetM William Mc
Klnley on II In Itctnrn with
Sotm nnd Tenra.
CANTON, O., Sept. IS. The sight was
ptofoundly Impresslvo as the funeral train
drew Into the little station at Canton at
exactly noon today. At tho station and
banked on the surrounding streets were
tho friends and neighbors of tbo martyred
president, while drawn up back of tho sta
tlon wero long lines of military at present
arms. Immediately In tho rear of the sta
won, ni tno mouth of Tenth street, was
Troop A of Cleveland, mounted on their
black chargers, keeping tho entrance of tho
lino of march clear.
Up this street soldiers ot Intervals of
ton feet with difficult- restrained the solid
wall of people. Canton had suddenly b'o
como a city of 100,000 ond the entire
population was In tho streets. The sta
tion Itself was cleared, accompany of sol
dlers of the Eighth Ohio from Worcster
keeping the platform clear. Opposite, over
iuc nenus oi acres or people on tho wall
of a big manufacturing establishment was
an enormous shield thirty feet high, with
McKlnley's black-bordered picture In the
center. Tho local committee, headed sby
ex-aecretary or steto William R. Day and
Judge Grant, were on tho platform .
Women Weep nt Slizht of Trnln.
All ahout were the black spmbols of
mournoing. The approach of the train was
unheralded. No whistle was blown, no
boll was rung. In absolute silence It rolled
Into tho station. Even tho black-hooded
locomotive gave no sound. There was no
panting of the exhaust pipes. The energy
mai Droucni u seemed to havo been abso
lutely expended. At the mero sight of
tho train the people who had been waiting
mere ror nours were, greatly affected.
Women sobbed and men wept.
For a full minute after It had stopped
none appeared. The commltteo moved along
down tho platform to the catafalque car
ana waned, suddenly Abner McKlnloy, In
deep black, his face tense and drawn, ap
peared In the vestibule of tho car next
that conveying the body and n moment
later Dr. Rlxey appeared, half carrying
frail and broken form. It Jvas Mrs. Mc
Klnley, arrayed In deepest mourning.
Beneath the heavy black, veil sho held
her handkerchlof to her eyes and her slight
figure shook convulsively. Gently she was
lifted from tho car and supported by Dr.
Rlxey and Abner McKlnley. Sho was prac
tically carried to a carriage In waiting at
the cast end of the stntlon. Tho door of
the carrlago wrfs closed ond Mrs. McKlnlov
driven hurriedly to her home on North
Market street, which bHo hnd left only two
weeks ngo with her distinguished husband

then gave directions for tho removal of
me casKet rrom tho car. The coffin was
too largo to bo taken through tho door und
a broad window at the side was unscrewed
and removed. Whllo this was going on
tno noral pieces lnsldo wcro carefully
nttcu out and placed upon the cround at
the side of tho track. When nil was ready,
mo soioiers nnd sailors who had accom
panied tho remains all the way from Buf
falo emerged from tho car and took un
their places. Tho soldiers trailed arms
and the sailors held their drawn cutlasses
at their sides. Only tho body bearers
were lurebeadod and unarmed.
Meantime President Roosevelt, with his
brothcr-ln-law. Captain Cowlcs of tho
navy, In full uniform, at his side, had de
scended from the car ahead of that occu
pied by Mrs. McKlnley. The members of
the cabinet, Secretary Cortolyou, Governor
Nash, Lieutenant Governor Caldwell and
Judge Marshall J. Williams of the supremo
court, representing tho thrco branches of
state government of Ohio, followed. Tho
president was met by Judge Grant of the'
receiving committee and tho official party
tnen moved to tho west of tho station.
where they formed In line with the presi
dent nt tho head. All wero uncovered:
Procession Forms.
Tho casket was then lifted through tho
window and token upon tho brawny
shoulders of tho body bearers. Only the
flag was on It now. At sight of It tears
enmo unbidden and flowed froely. The sad
procession was then formed. It wns
headed by Colonel Bingham, In full uniform
and a bow of cropc at tho hilt of his
sheathed sword. Following nnd Imme
diately preceding the casket was tho local
commltteo, headed by Judge Day. Then
came the soldiers nnd sailors. Slowly they
moved down tho platform to tho turn at
the western ond of the stntlon, where the
president and cabinet stood. As they
reached the head of this line n clear-drawn
buglo cdll sounded a silvery requiem. Be
fore the president and cabinet and the
Ohio officials the coffin was then borno to
the hearso. When It had been placed In
side tho president nnd odlclal party en
tered carriages.
Meantime Admiral Dewey, Lieutenant'
General Miles and tho other high officers of
tho army and navy who composed the
guard ot honor had moved around the east
sldo of the station. They also entered
carriages ,nd took their placo In the larger
procession that was now forming. All were
attired In the full uniform ot their ranks.
Move From the .Station.
The shrill notes of the buglo bad given
the nm sign to tho waiting multitude
outside tho stntlon that the casket was ap
proaching. Instantly the long lines of sol
dlers became rigid, standing nt present
arms. The black horses of the Cleveland
troop Immediately facing tho statloti stood
motionless, their riders with sabers low
ered, Slowly through the entrance came
tho stalwart soldiers and sailors, with
solemn tread, bearing aloft the fiag-covered
coffin ot tho man this city loved tn well.
As It came Into view n treat sign went up
from tho denso throng. After tho first
glance many of tho men and women turned
away to hide their emotions, which they
could not restrain. When tho casket had
been consigned to the hearse three mounted
trumpetfd 'liv rjaal for the melancholy
procession to tawve. A moment later the
sound of "Nearer, My God, to Thee," floated
through tbo air as the Grand Army vet-
ere.ns, with their band, swung Into line
nnu took up the march townrd the street
To Tenth street and then to Cherry and
Tuscarawas the solemn pageant moved, be
twoen solid masses of people banked from
curb to store front, crowding the house
tops and filling every window. Turning
Into Market street, the main thoroughfare
or tno city, tho procession moved, undc
great curtains of mourning strung from
building to building across the street every
iw rect.
Memorable Pnuennt,
A majestically solemn spectacle wns pre
sented as tho procession ncarcd the publl
square in tho center of the city. After th

their brilliant uniforms of Austrian Huzzar
style, with tail bearskin shakos, topped by
pompoms of while. ' At tho hilt of every
sworn streamed a long band of crepe and
the tiny silk guidon flag wns topped with
a long, black streamer. Immediately fol
lowing the mounted troops come the
hearse, bearing Its flag-covered burden
This was the sight that sent a hush along
the dense, long lines of humanity stretch
ing for a mile Away to the courthouse. As
the casket passed every head was bared
and every face evidenced the great per
sonal grief which bad come upon the com
munlty.
Immediately following the hearse came
tho carriage of President Roosevelt, who
rodo with his brother-in-law, Captain
Cowlcs of the navy, the latter In full uni
form, and Secretary Gage. Afterward
came the Notional guard of Ohio.
As the head of tho procession reached
the great square of the city the military
ranks swung about, forming solid rank
facing the approaching hearse. As It was
driven to tho curb the bearers stepped from
tho places alongside, and again took up
their burden. The casket was tenderly
raised and born up the wide stono step
leading to tho entrance of the courthouse
Tho strains of "Nearer, My God, to Theo
were still sounding ns tho flag-draped
coffin disappeared within the building.
Into the Court llnusV,
President Roosevelt alighted from his
carriage r.nd took the arm of Secretary
Gage. The other cabinet officers Joined
them'nt the curb and then two and two
with uncovered heads thoy moved In column

Then cnnic the other public men who worn
on the train. Major General Brooke, In tho
full uniform ot his rank, marched at the
hend of tho ranks of the army, which In
cluded Major General Otis and Major Gen
eral MncArthur. Among tho conspicuous
figures of tho naval scrvlctf were Rear
Admiral Crowlnshleld, Rear Admiral O'Nctl
Rear Admiral Kenney nnd Brigadier Gen
eral Haywood.
With tho notes of "Nearer, My God, to
Thee" following them faintly through the
doorway tho bearers bore the body Into the
rotunda n little before 1 o'clock. The walls
and ceilings were hung with dead black, tho
crepe being gathered Into folds at each cor
ner of the rotunda. A single chandelier
gave light additional to tho dim rays that
passed through the doorway. Beneath the
cluster of electric lights stood the ca
tafalquo upon which the casket was to
rest.
Moving slowly with short stops tho coffin
was borne to its support. The bearers
swung slowly around, so that the head lay
to the east. The flag ovsr the casket was
drawn back, tho wreaths which rested on
Its head wero removed1 and tho ltd of the
coffin was taken off. '
President nnd Cabinet Pass.
Word was finally passed to President
Roosevelt and his cabinet nnd he stepped
Into the hall. He glanced down as be
reached tbo casket, halted for the spaco
ot a breath and moved on. Tho cabinet
members followed him.' The president
passed out to his carlag which born him
at onco to tne residence' of TOrs. Eliza
beth Harter, where he will remain during
his stay In Canton. The cabinet officials,
most of whom will remain at Mrs. liar-.
ter's home, followed Immediately.-
Tho officers of tho army and navy, headed
by Generals Miles, Otis and Brooke, walked
together, passed out arid entered their car
riages. When everything wns ready for tho
public Joseph Sexton, undo of Mrs. Mc
Klnloy, an aged man, bowed deeply with
tho weight of years, entered from tho cast
hall and (stopped up to tho casket. Ho
stood for fully two mlnutos gazing Into
the face of bis distinguished kinsman. He
walked slowly down tho hall, his head
bowed low, his lips twitching convulsively.
Then the door was opened to tho public.
Many of the people, as they looked upon
tho face of their dead friend, whom thoy
had seen but two weeks ngo In full health,
broko down.
Tho president's faco was much thinner
than was expected and tho sight that met
their eyes shocked them greatly. No dcluy
was permitted and fully 1D0 people a ralnuto
passed the bier.
For a Last Look.
Throughout the afternoon the human tide
pressed steadily forward to the bier. Four
abreast In double line, without a moment's
halt, the people hurried by the casket and
then with tear-stained faces, passed out of
tho darkened chamber Into tbo bright sun
light. In the line were those representing
all stations In life, all ages, all conditions,
At one moment, an old man bent and with
ered who had known "Mother" McKlnlov.
tottered up to gaze upon-the silent features.
He was followed by a man of middle acre
who bad gono to school with McKlnlov.
Over on one side was the Knight Templar
who had marched beside McKlnloy In
parades. All who camo had some recol
lectton of personal relation with tho nmu
lying there cold In death. Fathers brought
up their children and held them over tho
bier for a fleeting glance at tho upturned
face. A sleeping babe was aroused by Its
aother for a sight Its Ilttlo mind could not
comprehend. Tollers came from the fac
tories, and dinner polls In hand, trooped
by the bier of him whom they colled their
benefactornd their friend. Now and then
Knots or scnooi children hurried past, awo
Btruck at tbn gloom af the chamber of
death. Often tho guarding soldiers wero
compelled to step forward and restrain a
hand thnt sought a bud from tho flowers.
It was plain that a great emotion was swell-
Ing up In the hearts of these sorrowing peo
ple. Strong men made no concealment of
tholr grief, their tender faces nnd tearful
eyes telling the sense of personal bereave
ment which had come on them. Women went
ond during the afternoon ono young girl
gave way to her feelings by loud walls
which echoed through tho darkened cor
ridors. Fnce Dlntreiufi Them.
As the people hurried by they gavo ex
pression to exclamations of anguish at the
sight ot the pinched face lying there-ln tho
coffin. It was not tho faoo thoy hnd known
so well and almost without oxceptlon tho
peoplo turned away regretful that they hnd
not retained In their minds that picture of
manly vigor which tbey knew so well.
Many of his nearest friends refrained from
looking on tho face, preferring to preserve
the memory of blm as in life.
Late In the afternoon an aged man lean
ing on two crutches appeared ot the door
through which the people were making their
exit. Ho asked the gentry to allow him to
enter nnd when tho soldier refined, caying
he had received orders to allow nobody
through, that door, the old man stood back,
the picture of woe. In a short time he
again asked tho young sentry, In pleading
tones, to allow him entrance through tbo
doorway, saying that ho was not able to
stand in the line, which at that time was
extending fully a mile from the entrance.

"I fought In his regiment during the

"Taku It In," nald the sentry and the
veteran hobbled into the hall. When ho
rot lnsldo he had more trouble and was
compelled to explain his errand several
times. Finally the line paslng tho coffin
ns stopped long enough to allow the old
man to step to Its side for a glanco Into
the coffin and to lay his tiny flag on Its
glass front. Then he turned back with the
crowd, hugging tho now sanctified flag
tightly beneath his coat.

and, disengaging from tho bosom ot her
dress ar scarlet geranium, laid It gently
on tho top of the wreathes resting there.
Tho others followed her example nnd, al
though the sentries had orders to permit
nobody to place anything on the coffin or
to touch the floral offerings already there,
tho little tributes ot the girls were al
lowed to remain and they were still on tha
top of the coffin when It was carried
through the door on Its way to McKlnley's
cottage.
All through the afternoon the crowd
passed the cntalfaque, approximately at tho
rote of 100 every minute, making In the

CANTON, O.. Sept. 18. The first section
of the funeral train reached Canton at 11:30.
The climax of tho great demonstration of
sorrow that had been observed all the way
rrom t'lttsDurg negun at Alliance, eignteen
miles from Canton. There the half-masted
flags were bordered heavily with black and
It seemed as If every man, woman and child
was at tho station. A big whtto streamer
ten feet wide was across tho main street,
lettered heavily In black, "Wo mourn our
nation's dead." The church bells wcro toll
ing dolorously.
Then came the- last half hour's run Into
Canton, where the body was to be received
Into the arms of Its own people. Mile by
mile the approach was marked by evidence
of deep personal affliction. Flags that bad
often waved McKlnley welcome wore now
lowered In sorrow. Farmers and country
folk generally seemed to have suspended
work altogether; the schools were dismissed
and the entire population ranged along the
rack In sorrowful silence. Tho strained
faces showed, that tho people took this

reavemcnt which had entered each homen
and it was an though fathers and mothers
and sisters wero watching for a glimpse of
the casket that held theh own dead.
At Maximo tho stores wero heavily draped
and tho townspeople packed the little sta
tion. Now the train was at Louisville, only
six miles from Canton, and soon tho shops'
of tho president's much-loved city were
otted anions the way. For the first tlmo
the sun, which hnd been behind heavy black
louds, threw Its rays on the gathered
throngs and lighted up tbo somber emblems
of mourning and tho entry was made In
bright sunshine.
