BURIAL OF PARNELL.
The Mortal Remains of Ire¬
land’s Chief Laid to Rest.
A Dublin cablegram says: The re¬
mains of Charles Stewart Parnell arrived
at KiDgstown at 7 o’clock Sunday morn¬
ing. After leaving London there were
no demonstrations along the railway
route until Chester was reached. Here
large deputations from Liverpool, Man¬ and
chester, Preston, Newcastle-on-Tyne
other places joined the train. Parnell’s
colleagues Redmond, in parliament, Wexford; including John John
E. of O’Con
no", of Tipperary; Joseph Nolan, of
Louth; Henry Campbell, of Fermanagh;
Dr. James Q. Fitzgerald, of Langford,
and James J. O’Kelly, of Roscommon,
extended greetings to various deputa¬
tions. The funeral train reached Holy
head about 2 o'clock. Eager groups of
people had collected on the quay to
watch the transfer of the coffin from the
train to the mail boat (appropriately
named the Ireland.) The voyage across
the St. George’s train arriving channel was Dublin quickly station made,
at at
half-past 7 o’clock. A vast but awaited silent
crowd, with uncovered heads,
the train as it rolled into the station.
Upon being removed from the train the
case was taken from the coffin, which wasi
then lifted into the hearse, the panel
glass exposing the coffin to view.
Wreaths and other floral tributes literally
covered the top of the hearse and piled
around the coffin case. As the hearse
moved from the station a body ot police
formed in front of the procession. As
the march progressed the crowds grew
denser, yet they kept clear of the line of
procession along the whole route to Cas
cle Hill, where the serried ranks of peo¬
ple occupied every inch of space.
LYING IN STATE.
The city hall was reached at 8:30
o’clock. A violent rain storm streamed
down as the coffin was being born into
the hall towards the catafalque. It kept
raining in pitiless torrents for hour after
hour, yet the number of the vast throng
struggling to force their way slighest, to the city
hall was not reduced in the or
was their eagerness one whit dampened.
From 10 o’clock till 2 o’clock in the
afternoon a continuous stream of people
poured into the city hall. It is estimat¬
ed tuat 40,000 persons availed themselves
of the last opportunity to pay their
respects to the illustrious dead. The
ceremony of lying in state was to have
been closed at noon, but the crowd was
so numerous that the closing of the doors
was postponed till alter 2 ’clock, and even
then hundreds were obliged to go away
disappointed. At a quarter led by to 3 o’clock
the procession started, the exec¬
utive lowing of the leadership committee. Fol¬
came the bier, drawn by six coal
black horses, surrounded by parliament¬
ary colleagues of Parnell. As the coffin
passed, almost hidden in flowers, every
head in the vast assemblage was uncov¬
ered.
Behind the members of the Dublin
municipality came those of the provin¬
cial corporations, trades societies and
other organizations. Some forty thous¬
and people had passed through council
hall during the four hours the body had
lain in state, and most of these joined the
procession, forming into line, six abreast,
wherever a gap iu the procession permit¬
ted them to go. By 4 o’clock the police
became overwhelmed by the power of the
ever-increasiDg crowd, and by the with¬
drawal of a portion of their force, who
went to try to clear a w ay for the funeral
at the entrance gates to the cemetery.
When the first part of the procession
reached the lower gate, at 5 o’clock, it
was found impossible to penetrate the
dense masses. In a struggle with the
onlookers the police were obliged to
abandon the attempt to drive them
back. The surging crowd around the
gate seeking to see the others cortege met a
great contending wave of trying to
enter.
A LITTLE CONFUSION.
A scene of great confusion ensued.
The procession for the time was checked
and thrown into disarry. It was decid¬
ed to close the lower gate, and this was
effected amid great disorder, just as the
hearse reached the spot. The hearsu was
th' n taken to the upper gates. Here the
coffin was removed and placed upon a
platform in order to enable those in the
procession to the file around and have a
full view of the bier. At 6 o’clock fast¬
falling dusk found the procession still
filing past. There seemed no likolihood
that the stream of marchers would end till
far into the depth of night, so orders were
given to remove the coffin to the side of
the grave. A body of Clan-na-Gaels suc¬
ceeded in clearing the way to the grave
and formed a circle within which were
grouped dignitaries, the lord mayor of Dublin, the
civic parnell’s colleagues in
parliament and relatives. The crush
around about was terrible.
THE BURIAL AT NIGHT.
Darkness bad set in. The noise of
shrieking women, the .cries of children
and the cries men struggling amid the
crush, made inaudible the voice of the
clergy, reciting the ritual of the Church
of England. At the grave Rev. Mr. Vin¬
cent, of the Lotunda chapel, and Rev.
George Fry, of Manchester, officiated.
They were obliged to cut the services
short, as the crowd broke into the pro¬
tecting circle Some and time overwhelmed in the inner dead
group. alter, the
darkness, when .the crowd had thinned
away, the more intimate friends again
grouped themselves around the grave,
deposited of wreathes the coffin. thereon and took a
last view
