He was aBked whether It would have any effect upon Gov. Morton's presidential aspirations. "It may have,” said Mr. Depew. "In deed. It probably will.

Secretary and Mrs. Latnont, First As sistant Postmaster-General Jones, ex Secretary of the Treasury Bristow and Mrs. Bristow and a few other Intimate friends were with the sorrowing and stricken family. Mrs. Gresham, broken In spirit, exhausted by her long vigils and overcome with grief, was In such a nervous state that her daughter and ion prevailed upon her not to under take the trying ordeal of attending the services at the White House. At 8:80 b’clock, therefore, the doors were all closed, and the stricken family was left alone with their dead. For almost thir ty minutes they remained, taking their last leave. Then the bugle commands floated across the square as the horses k tne yeliow-tasseled cavalry, the lum bering caissons of the red artillery and the blue-coated foot soldiers, the mili tary escort, were drawn up Into lines alone Pennsylvania avenue. At 9 o’clock the doors to the room where the remains lay were opened, and the family retired to the rear apartments.

A moment later Secretary Mor ton and Postmaster General Wilson ar rived In their carriages, followed by Secretary Smith on foot. The casket had been closed and the President and members of his cabinet were given no opportunity to view the remains. At exactly 9:30 o'clock five red-ooated trumpeters marched up Lafayette place and Btationed themselves outside the line of mounted police to give the sig nal when the cortege departed. Thirty eeconds later the hearse, drawn by two coal black horses, drew up at the door. ' The president, followed by members of the cabinet In the order of their rank, ictlng as honorary pallbearers, descend ed the steps and stood with uncovered heads while the eight artillerymen car ried the casket with slow and solemn tread between them. The casket was shrouded completely In the folds of the American flag. The stars and stripes could hardly be discerned for the flow ers banked upon the casket. The artil lerymen walked beside the hearse as It drew away, halting at the corner until the president and members of his offi cial family In their carriages had tak en their positions ahead. Acting Secre tary Uhl was with Mr. Cleveland, Sec retary Carlisle was alone and Secre taries Herbert and Lamont, Attorney General Olney and Postmaster-General Wilson, Secretaries Smith and Morton, »nd First Assistant Postmaster-General tones and ex-Secretary Bristow fol lowed In the order named.

The casket, preceded by the president and cabinet, was borne by the artillery men to the east room, where the serv ice took place. Seats were reserved for the immediate kinsfolk and relatives of the dead man, for the president and Mrs. Cleveland and for the members of the cabinet and their wives.
