VIEU'lNti THE HEMAINS OK THE LATE
1'KKSIDKNT AT ELBERON.
Elbeuon, September 218:30 a.
m. Arrangements have been com
pleted and notice given that all thosp
wishing' may view the remains of
the late chief magistrate. The line
is- formed and people are passing in
eingle file through the cottage. Two
sentinels are stationed at each side
of the entrance to prevent more
than one person entering at a time.
The casket is very unpretentious,
being covered with black cloth, aud
with the exception of silver mount
ings, perfectly plain. The only de
coration is a large "V" shaped Sago
palm, which extends from the foot
of the casket upwards. The remains
are lying on the first floor of the
cottage and people pass in at the
east door and without stopping go
out at the west The appearance of
the late president is so changed that
persons familiar with his natural
countenance would scarcely recog
nize him. Church bells are tolling
and the crowd continues to increase.
The cars which are to be used for
the funeral train have just been run
up to Francklyn cottage.
9 :30 a. m. The engine and coach
cb are now in readiness to start. The
entire train is heavily draped iu
mourning. The line formed from
the hotel to Francklyn cottage has
been diminished somewhat, but
Ocean avenue for two blocks in
either direction is blocked with ve
hicles. Extreme solemnity pervades
the assemblage.
RELIGIOUS SERVICES.
At half past nine o'clock Chief
Justice "Waile, Secretary and Mrs.
Blaine, Secretarj' and Mrs. Window,
Secretary and Mrs. Hunt, Postmas
ter General and Mrs. James, and
Secretaries Lincoln and Kirkwood
aud Attorney General McVeigh ar
rived at Francklyn cottage aud the
doors were closed to visitors. Re
ligious services were conducted by
liev. Charles J. Young, of Long
Branch at the request of Mrs. Gar
field. There were uresent besides
the family and attendants, members
of the cabinet, their wives and a few
personal friends, numbering about
ffl, when the moment for services
was announced, the windows and
doors were closed and the most
solemn silence prevailed.
This morning, after the conclusion
of the services, Mrs. Garfield, ac
companied by her son Harry, Col.
Swaim, Col. and Mrs. Rockwell,
Miss Mollie Garfield, Dr. Boynton
aud C. O. Kockwoll, left the cottage
aud boarded the first coach. The
members of tho cabinet and their
wives followed and took seats in
the second coach. Mrs. Garfield
was heavily veiled, and in passing
exhibited the calm fortitude which
has characterized her manner
throughout.
The Funeral Train.
THE START FROM ELBERON.
Elberon, September 21. The
funeral train passed Elberon etation
at 10:12. President Arthur and ex
President Grant boarded the train
at this point. Gov. Ludlow, of New
Jersey, and a number of state of
ficials, waited as a guard of honor.
At exactly 10 o'clock the train star
ted from the cottage. A quarter of
a mile from Elberon station Gen.
Arthur's special train was met and
the president, accompanied by Gen.
Grant, entered a car of the funeral
train.
ALOXG THE ROUTE.
Ocean Grove, N. J., September
21. The funeral train bearing the
body of the late President Garfield
passed here at 10:14. The railroad
for half a mile on both sides was
lined with people. On the platform
of the depot was from four to five
thousand ladies and gentleman. As
the train passed men stood with un
covered heads absolutely silent. The
bells tolled and then the crowd dis
persed. Flags were at half mast
aud buildings draped.
Prixcetox Junction, September
2111 :35 There were about three
hundred or more students from
Prinston college at the Junction, and
they had the track strewn for one
hundred yards with flowers, and
threw some elegant flowers on the
train as it slowed up. The
traiu passed Trenton, sixty-four
miles from Elberon, at 11 :49 and ar
rived at Bristol, .where it stopped
for water, at 12 :05 leaving at 12 .-08.
About a thousaud people were con
gregated at this place.
The train passed West Philadel-
phia at 12 :44. In carrying President
Garfield to Long Branch the special
train then made the ninety-four miles
from West Philadelphia to Elberon,
iu au hour and thirty minutes; the
tuneral traiu occupied an hour and
fifty-two minutes. The train left
Gray's Ferry at 12:53
Wilmington, Del., September 21.
Ten thousand people saw the train
pass the city and the fire bells tolled.
Havre De Grace, September 21.
The traiu passed at 2 :31.
BALTiMOREjSeptember 21 The fu
neral train passed at 3:28. Several
thousand people were at the depot
in silence aud in tears.
Washington, September 21. The
train bearing the remains of the late
President Garfield arrived here at
4:41.
NOTIFYING congressmen.
At a meeting of members of con
gress to-night it was resolved that
the sergeant-at-arms aud clerk of
the house should notify every mem
ber elect to the 47th congress of the
time and place of President Gar
field's 1 uncial, aud request their at
tendance. Senators joined the rep
rcsenatives iu this meeting. It was
also decided that senators, members
and officers of both houses should
receive the remains of the president
at the east front of the capitol, and
that the body should attend the
funeral at Cleveland.
ARRIVAL OF THE REMAINS IN WASH
INGTON. A vast throng assembled about
the depot to honor the illustrious
dead. Every approach was densely
packed. A large police force were
present. The immediate avenues to
the depot were closed against the
public. The hearse used, furnished
by Undertaker Speare, is the one
awarded the prize at the centennial,
and was richly draped, wholly in
black; the horses, six iron greys,
were also draped. As the traiu
slowly entered the depot every head
was uncovered, and a death-like
stillness prevailed. One hundred
and thirty army and navy officers
were in single rank upon the left.
Mrs. Garfield, attended upon the
right by Secretary Blaine and upon
the left by her son Harry, descended
and entered a carriage. Her face
was completely hidden by a veil
which hung nearly to the ground.
Her emotions were sacred from the
sight of observers. She was follow
ed by Mollie and others of the party.
After it had moved on a short dis
tance the coffin was borne from the
traiu to the hearse upon the shoul
ders of eight soldiers of the Second
artillery. On the right was Adju
tant General Drum, followed by
officers of the navy, under the lead
of Roar Admiral Nichols. The
marine band played "Nearer My
God to Thee," while ever' heud
bowed aud mauy eyes dimmed. The
sweetly familiar strains, the silence
and grief of the multitude, and the
sad surroundings formed a picture
uever to be forgotten. Carriages
containing the ladies did not accom
pany the hearse to the capitol. Pres
ident Arthur's carriage followed
immediately after the hearse. Iu it
were President Arthur, Secretary
Blaine, Waite and Windom. The
carriage containing Mrs. Garfield
aud daughterwas driven down Penn
sylvania avenue to Four-and-ahalf
street, thence to MacVeagh's resi
dence, where they remain. As soon
as the last of the party entered the
carriages the bugle signal was given,
the military formed in line, and the
procession moved slowly up the
avenue. Sidewalks were filled from
Sixth street to the capitol. The
crowd was as great as upon the
president's inaugural. No sound
was heard nave the tramp of men
and horses. At the east front of the
capitol a vast assemblage awaited
the arrival of the cortege. At the
foot of the stepB in double file were
senators and representatives waiting
to escort the remains into the rotun
da. At 5:10 the bead of the pro
cession, moving around the south
side, arrived at the east front. The
arms of the military were reversed,
the band playing the dead march.
The troops then, "carrying arms,"
came to a front-face, while, with
muffled drnms, the hearse and car
riages drew slowly up. The coffin
was lifted from the hearse and the
army and navy officers drew up on
the other side, and the band played
again the dear old hymn as with
solemn tread the remains of Presi
dent Garfield were borne into the
rotunda and placed upon the cata
falque. At 5:25 the coffin was opened,
and the face of the late president
exposed. President Arthur and
Secretary Blaine approached and
gazed upon his face, then slowly
passed out of the ball. A line was
formed, and one by one those pres
ent advanced and gazed at the ema
ciated face. The public at large
were theu admitted. The body will
lie in state until Friday evening. At
nightfall the dim light from the
dome, shining from the drapings of
the rotunda, and the cold, 6till face
heightened the solemnity of the
scene. On leaving the capitol Pres
ident Arthur was driven directly to
the residence of Senator Jones. Mrs.
Garfield to-day expressed a sincere
desire not again to see the white
house where she has passed so many
days of Borrow and anxiety. She
will not visit it while here.
At 11 to-night there was 'still a
large number of people about the
cast front of the capitol wailing in
line to view the remains. The
mournful privilege will be extended
day and night until Friday evening,
when the funeral train will start for
Cleveland.
MEETING OF THE CABINET.
The cabinet met this morning at
Blaine's resideuco to arrange the
journey to Cleveland. A telegram
was sent to Governor Foster, re
questing him, with his staff, to meet
the train at the Ohio state line and
accompany the party to Cleveland.
It was generally supposed that the
conference was on the subject of a
called session of the senate, but it is
learned authoritatively that this sub
ject will be deferred by President
Arthur until the return from Cleve
land. CLOSING THE DEPARTMENTS.
The treasury and other depart
ments closed from to-day until Sat
urday. Iife.Like la Death.
DRESSED IN THE CLOTHES WORN ON
INAUGURATION DAY.
New York, Sept. 21. The Even
ing Post's Long Branch special says :
The late president is laid out in the
suit of clothes which he wore on
inauguration day. His left hand is
laid across his breast after the man
ner he had iu life. This was done
in order to make his resemblance as
near to life as possible. The body
is so greatly shrunken (hat artificial
means had to be resorted to to give
the clothes the appearance of fitting.
In addition to natural shrinking from
his illness the operation connected
with tho autopsy has left the body
in an even more emaciated state.
A PLASTER CAST
was taken of his face yesterday as
well as of his right hand. In taking
the cast of his band it was somewhat
discolored, bnt his hand will not be
seen. The affect of the oil used on
the face previous to taking the cast
disfigured the features somewhat
aud slightly altered the color of the
face, so that the late president's ap
pearance is very much less natural
even thau it was just after death.
THE BURIAL CASKET.
A number of journalists who have
been so closely watching the presi
dent's case all these weeks were
given an opportunity to first view
the body. The sentries stood at
either side of the entrance. The
coffin lays in the hallway of the low
er floor with a soldier at the head
and foot of it. The coffin was black
with silver handles, black rods ran
along the side, and upon the top was
a silver plate with the following
inscription :
I "James Abram Garfield,
': Born Nov. 21, 1831, j
: Died, :
: President of the United States, :
: Sept. 19, 1831." :
Tho coffin was liued with white
satin. Across the top and crossing
each other were two long leaves of
palmary. The face and shoulders
were visible.and one needed to know
that all that remained of James A.
Garfield lay there. To recall the
features so familiar during life and
the face to those who knew General
Garfield only from portraits could
not have been recognized ; even the
features were no longer there.
There was an expression about the
lower lip which those who knew
him best would recognize. The
cheeks were gone, the brow had lost
its massive appearance which char
acterized it in life. The involuntary
whispered remark of all as they
gazed upon the loved form with a
shudder was, "I never should have
recognized him." "How he must
have suffered." Tho shruuken earth
ly form told how much he suffered.
A Snl, I nip rex wive Scene.
New York, September 20. The
HerahVs postscript has the follow
ing: The death-bed scene of the
presidcut was a scene peculiarly sad
and impressive As soon as the
doctors felt there was no longer any J
hope the members of the family as
sembled, Dr. Bliss stood at tho head
of the bed with his hand on the
pulse of the patient and consulted
in low whispers with Dr. Agnew.
The private secretary stood on the
opposite side of the bed with Mrs.
Garfield at the bedside, she at times
leaning on hi9 arm. Mrs. Lulu
Rockwell and Miss Mollie Garfield
came into the room at the time the
president lost consciousness. After
ward they went into the hall, the
door of which remained open, and
waited . there. What conversation
was had was conducted in whispers.
Those about the bod occasionally
went into corners of the room and
spoke to each other. The solemnity
of the occasion impressed itself upon
them. There was no sound heard
except gasping for breath of the
sufferer, whose changing color gave
indications of the near approach of
the end. After he had repeated "It
hurts" he passed into a state of un
consciousness, breathing heavily at
times, and then giving a slight indi
cation that breath was still in his
body. The only treatment given
was hypodermic injections of bran
dy by Dr. Agnew, assisted by Dr.
Boynton. Occasionally they spoke
with Dr. Bliss in quiet whispers.
The president suffered no pain. Af
ter a time he placed his hand upon
his heart. He passed away almost
quietly. The time between life and
death was marked by no physical
exhibition nor any word. The in
tervals between gasping became
longer, and presently there was no
sound. Every one present knew
death had come quickly, without
pain. When it became evident that
he was dead, Mrs. Rockwell placed
her arm around Mrs. Garfield and
led from the room. She nttered no
word. Warren and Stauley Brown
watched over it through the night.
Mrs. Garfield went to her room in
the adjoining cottage, but paced the
floor for hours.
Dr. Boynton gives the following
account of the death scone : He bad
been sleeping quietly until about
fifteen minutes before his death. I
slipped into the room to examine
his pulse and found it had grown a
little weaker, but not dangerously
weak. The president 6aid to Swaim,
"Oh, Swaim, what a terrible pain I
have here," and he placed his hand
upon his breast over his heart. The
doctors and members of the family
had by that time gathered and a
colored man stood at the door.
There was scarcely a perceptible
movement anywhere on the Buffer
er's features, and no movement of
the limbs. His pulse was less fre
quent. m Dr. Agaew made an exami
nation and found no pulse. I put
my ear down to bis heart, but dis
covered no pulse. Mrs. Garfield
placed her hand upon his chest,
partly bending over him until he
died. All of us eat there a little while,
and then we left the room. The
first time that Mrs. Garfield broke
down in tears was wheu she left the
door of the president's room. Dr.
Agnew and myself and Gen. Swaim
remained for some time. Secretary
Browu watched until morning.
THE LOCATION OF THE HALL.
Elurron, September 20. The
statement that the ball was found iu
the region of the heart has been ver
ified. It is Btatcdauthorilafively that
developments of the autopsy show
that death was inevitable, and lifo
was sustained only by tho most ex
cellent nourishment and constant
care.
BLISS HAS THE BALL.
Long Branch, September 20.
Bliss said the autopsy was very te
dious. Three-quarters of au hour
was occupied in looking for the ball.
He said Mrs. Garfield was much re
lieved since the autopsy. It showed
tho patient's death was inevitable.
The point of the ball is somewhat
blunt or battered, caused by striking
the rib. Bliss took tho ball until it
shall be produced in tho courts. The
state of Now Jersey has issued a per
mit for the removal of the body.
THE AUTOPSY.
Elberon, September 20. The au
topsy has been progressing more
than an hour. One of the first dis
coveries made was a larjyo clot of
blood found in tho heart, corrobo
rating the opinion of the visiting
surgeons regarding the immediate
cause of death.
THE POST-MORTEM EXAMINATION.
Elberon, September 20. The fol
lowing official bulletin was prepared
to-night at 11 by surgeons lately in
attendance: By previous arrange
ment a post-mortem examination of
tho body of President Garfield was
made this afternoon in the presence
and with the assistance of Hamilton,
Agnew, Bliss, Barnes, Woodward
and Reyburu,and Audrcw II. Smith,
of Elberon, and Acting Assistant
Surgeon D. S. Limb, of the army
medical museum, Washington. The
operation was performed by Lamb.
It was found that the ball, after
fracturing the right eleveuth rib,
had passed through the spinal col
umn in front of the spiual column,
fracturing the first lumbar verte
brae, driving a number of small
fragments of bone in the adjacent
soft part and lodging just below the
pancreas, about ten and one-half
inches left of the spine and behind
the peritoneum, where it had bo
come completely encysted. The im
mediate cause of death was seconda
ry hemorrhage from one of the
mesenteric arteries adjoining the
track of the ball. The blood rup
tured peritoneum and nearly a pint
escaped into the abdominal cavity.
This hemorrhage is believed to have
been the cause of the severe pain
just before death. An abscess cavi
ty, six inches by four iu dimensions,
was found in the vicinity of the gall
bladder, between the liver and trans
verse colon, which were strongly
interadherent. It did not involve
the substance of the liver aud no
communication was found between
it and the wound. A long suppura
tion channel extended from the ex
ternal wound between the loin and
muscles and the right kidney almost
to the right groin. This channel is
now known to be duo to burrowing
of the pus from the wound. It was
supposed during life to be the track
of the ball. On examination of the
cheBt organs evideuce of severe
bronchitis were found on both sides
with broncho pneumonia of the
lower portion of the right lung, and
it is thought a much less extent of
the left. The lungs contained no
abscesses, and the heart no clots.
The liver was enlarged and fatty,
but free from abscesses, nor were
any found in other organs except
the left krduey, which contained,
near to its surface, a small abscess
about one-third of an inch in di
ameter. The Journal's record of import
ant events would not be complete
without our good Governor's proc
lamation, a brief mention of whiph
was all we had space for last week :
To the people of Nebraska:
Executive Office, )
Lincoln, Neb., Sept. 20, 1SS1.J
The terrible tragedy which oc
curred in the City of Washington ou
the 2d of July last, when the chief
magistrate of the nation became the
object of an assassin's unprovoked
and desperate assault, has finally
culminated in a national disaster,
too mournful to be announced in the
ordinary language of sorrow. Our
honored and beloved president,
James A. Garfield, died at Long
Braucb, N. J., at 10:30 p. m., yes
terday. After many weeks of intense suff
ering the strong, brave heart is still,
and the friends of law and order and
good government throughout the
world are bowed with grief, as those
who feel tho weight of a personal
bereavement. Tho nation's calami
ty brings sorrow to every household
in Nebraska, and awakens the ten
derest feelings of sympathy for the
afllicted companion and fatherless
children of the late president. These
emotions of grief and sympathy will
find appropriate expression in every
city, village and rural home. In
harmony therewith it is suggested
that ou the day set apart for the
final obsequies all public offices aud
other places of business be closed.
It is also recommended that the
people assemble throughout the
state in their respective places of
worship aud with appropriate relig
ious exercises participate in the
nation's memorial service on that
occasion.
As a farther manifestation of the
borrow that is felt by all, and as a
mark of respect for the exalted
character of our late chief magis
trate, it is ordered that the national
flag be displayed at half-mast on the
capitol building at Lincoln, and that
the several state departments be
draped with emblems of mourning
for the period of thirty days.
In witness whereof I have here
unto affixed my hand, this 20th day
of September, iSSl.
Albixus Naxce.
By the governor.
S. J. Alexander,
Secretary of State.
A Tough Schoolmaster. The
old man approached the new school
master with a bull-dog glare in his
eye. "You got after my boy yes
terday because he loft a live hornet
glued to your chair?" "I did."
"You licked him so he thought the
world was coming to an end?"
"That was the impression I intend
ed to convey to him." I am his
father, and I've come to let yon
know what I thing of your proceed
ings." Then they clinched. Hair
and blood flew in the air, likewise
dust and fragments of garments.
Then it quieted down a little, and
the old man implored him to let him
up, stop choking aud take his teeth
from that ear. "What do you think
about my warming your boy?"
asked the teacher. "I think you did
just right, and when I go homo I'll
give him a tanning that'll teach him
to come to me with complaints, and
stories that the schoolmaster can't
light." They parted, and the school
master murmured. "I did right to
tackle the son of the worst lighting
man in the district first. None
the others will pester me."
