Kinl. 4 LAWTON BUD III General's Remains, laid lo I in National Cemetery. GREAT CROWDS ATTEND funeral Id Chinch of Covenant Draws It trihu ions, Thoueands Barred from the Church Make Their Way to Arlington To Witness the Final Exercises at the Grave. Washington. February 9 Major General Henry W.

Lawton was bur ed today In the national cemetery at Arlington. a whole people lerica added the chaplet of cypress to the brow that so long had worn the laurel. The burial service beneath the leafless trees at Arlington was preceded by services in the Church of the Covenant on Connecticut avenue, at which every department of the government was represented, including the president, congress, the supreme court, all the ranking officers of the army and navy within reach of Washington, Lawton's old comrades of the line and staff, the diplomatic corps In all its brilliancy of uniform and decoration and as many citizens of all degrees as were fortunate enough to nnd standing room within the walls. But the crowd within was insignificant compared with the thousands who braved the lowering winter's day 'for a glimpse of the flag draped caisson with Its military escort as It passed through the streets. Hundreds more made the toilsome pilgrimage to Arlington to hear the last words pronounced above the open grave where the president, cabinet and the general indlng the stood with heads till the last volley had been fired and the bugle sounded taps.

It was the home coming of a hero. For seven weeks, ever since the fatal news from San Mateo had been flashed around the world, the country had waited to pay its last tribute to the dead. Lawton Was an American Soldier. cans, had been the incarnate ioidi.T Uf In the civil war from the Mississippi to the sea and In the Interval of potential peace It was he who had beaten, at his own game. Geronlmo, the greatest master of desert craft and mountain fighting that the west had ever known and who, In the new problems of a tropic war, had i proved the most darlne and resourceful of all the generals In the field.

It was In tribute to these qualities that the La fund had 1 past all the expectations of 1 tors, for America knew that i swelled ing a soldier first and only, had left to those who loved him no heritage save his sword and a spotless name. For a day and night the body of the soldier lay in state In the Church of the the doors were opened, troopers from his old command, with sabers down, keep.ng vigil at the head and foot. Beneath the i soft lights of the altar rose a tropic jungle of palms and higher than the flag draped coffin rose banks of flowers, tributes from every quarter of the land. At hia head hung in dim folds the dingy battle flag from oamboo i eo, still fell. From the celling hung the red cen tcred flag of the Eighth corps, under which he had won perpetual fame in two Island wars.

About him as the shrill pipes of the organ trembled with the opening anthem Btood grouped his superiors and his brother officers, with whom President Sat Near Coffin. state. With th coffin sat President his right the secreta and Eurc v.ry oi of navy, the postmaster general, the secretary of the treasury, the secretary of the interior and the secretary of agriculture. Close by were Mrs. Lawton.

Utie Manley and the otn. rs of the family, and to the left General Miles. General Merrill. General Brooke. General Shafltr and their staff officers, all in uniform and ail Law ton's comrades, who at one time or knottier had camped and fought with him.

In the body of the church was scarcely less notable gathering, assistant secretaries and heads of bureaus, the military committees of the house and senate, diplo mats, tne orientals in th among mem the Spanish minister. There were delegations from the Loyal Legion the Grand Army of the Republic sna Chaplain Pierce, of Lawton's eld com WEAR AND TEAR BREAKS DOWN Hunter Baltimore Rye T0IIC4LLI I0ILDS UP the Presbyterian burial service that epistle to the Corinthians whoae words of comfort seem freshly prured for each occasion of bereavement Then President Stryker. of Hamilton college. New York. c.1adT In divinity robes, rose to deliver the oration.

He had been selected personally by the secretary of war. who knew his fitness for the task. The choice was amply Justified. Seldom has any ceremony called forth a tribute more scholarly and eloquent, more simple ar.d direct and ore appropriate and fitting: to the occasion. Dr.

Stryker said in part: Dr. Stryker's Tribute. "Over the width of the earth a soldier's household has brought its warrior home. The dust that the notion gathers to its guarding is that of no common man. We are met to celebrate and to mourn him.

But while w.e recall the The 1 which blossom of modesty crowns withal, while we recite the story of one who personified the best American first this day do we regard her sorrow who treads that 'solemn aisle of the sanctity of whose shadows are accessible only to her God.

A dozen troopers as the doctor closed lifted the flower laden coffin and bore it to the door, where three thousand soldiers and citizens in greater number waited to honor the soldier in his last march to his final resting place on the Virginia hillside beyond the Potomac. With a clatter of hoofs the cavalry escort the Fourth and Fifth ar tillery and a battalion of United States marines.

The whole was under command of eGneral Wesley Merrltt, Major John A. Johnston chief of staff, with the follow ing mounted officers: Special aide, Brigadier General Alfred E. Bates. Colonel John F. Colonel Theodore A.

Bingham, Lieutenant Colonel Henry C. Sharpe. Captain Joseph Kuhn. Lieutenant T. Bently Motf.alde.

With crepe shrouded colors lowered they filed past. rlet caped artillerymen, cavalrymen, dence. At thi plui anks of blue with lad ln liko rumble of fc wheels and clash of trace chains, came the guns, field batteries and siege trains. Ahead of the score of carriages was the flag draped, fiower ladened caisson, the hlr.ii oMier'a bier, and behind it was led the officer's charger in a shroud of black with the boots reversed in the stirrups, a piouturesque remnant of the superstition wait In the cold, wind swept slopes of Ar thtf pilgrimage early in the day. But close Mye: and then the solemn notes of the derge were borne on the wind as the procession moved through the winding avenues jjf the great city of the dead.

The grave was in open space just south of the am phitheater and in sight of the 1 M. and 1 ed staff deployed on the south road while solid ranks of dismounted troopers held back the crowd on every side. Nimble cavalrymen swarmed over the caisson, casting loose the lashings and bore the coffin to the open grave, while the president and the cabinet with the grey halrod generals stood silent and watched as the chaplain announced the words of I that lslgns hon to the dust whence It came, Then, in answer to a low command, the nrTng squad wheeled Into line. The snapping: volleys of the carbines scarcely echoed among the bare trees, but the wail of the bugle as It sounded "taps" lingered long sadly in the grey of the winter twilight and echoed faintly from the distant hills. As it died away the coffin sank from view.

General Lawton's home coming was accomplished. WOULD NOT PAY PEE. CAPITA. Virginia Branch United American Mechanics Suspended. Richmond.
