THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH. SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1891. ff THE FUNERAL TRAIN Is Viewed bj Many Thousands as It Passes Through Pittsburg. THE CITY'S TRIBUTE TO SHERMAN. Telerans of the War and Citizen Soldiers at the Union Station. HE fEOYIDED FOR HIS OWN HOXU2IEXT The train bearing the body of General "vV. T. Sherman arrived at the Union station yesterday morniaz, and while the engines were being changed the fact was noted by he ringing ot bells and booming of cannon. The train, which was run as the first section Lvjfl II ft1"! fess T . I kl;, 7B.TJVT.ORBCWi rWlNCA JlL "II SHEWAMl ' , hiV "'Hi I Omobip. 464 . A.f ''c'vt!! M0KU3IEKT OYEB THE GEAVE OF MRS. SHEEMAS. of 2o. 9, drew into the station at 7:45 o'clock. Long before that hour a detail of policeman under command of Captain Biivus, guarded the approaches and kept back the crowd, which at one time jammed the nearby streets. There was a light rain falling, but this had no apparent effect upon those who Lad gathered either from curiosity or to pay a last tribute of respect to the dead soldier. There were mny women in the crowd. The bridge across Liberty street was packed with people, as were other available points of ob servation. Among the spectators were many who.it could be teen, had been soldiers dur ing the "War of the Rebellion, thefact being apparent from the Grand Army button worn upon their coats. Veterans and Citizen Soldiers. The organized veterans were out in full force, over 300 comrades parading, under command of Department Commander Joseph F. Denniston. They bore a magnificent floral tribute, which was placed at the foot of the coffin. The Eighteenth Regiment paraded about 330 men, commanded by Colonel Norman M. Smith, and took up its position on the Panhandle platform, together with the veterans. As the train came in the Cathedral Band played a dirge, the soldiers presented arms and the spectators removed their hats. The engine was heavily draped with crape, and the six coaches were also festooned with the emblems of mourning, "While at the station Battery B fired 17 guns, a Major General's salute, from the hills above. When the engine which was to replace the one that had brought in the train was coupled to the first car the Eight eenth Eegiment bugler sounded a few notes, the soldiers presented arms and the train drew out. Along; the Lino of the Road. The first gatherings of any size that viewed the funeral Train after leaving Al tiona were at Greensburg and East Liberty. At the former place there was a large crowd at the Btation, but no formal demonstration. At "Wilkinsburgtbe platform was lined with people. Fully 1,500 persons had gathered at East Liberty station when the train passed that point. The members of James l.Ic?he.-son Post 117, G. A. It., 50 strong, ti ere drawn up in line and stood at attention us the train passed. ISe'ore reaching the city the train stopped r.t Edgewood to permit Mr. and Mrs. Willis F. McCook and the Fitch children togeton board. At the Union station the "latter were taken into the funeral car for a few minutes. On the Southside there was not much opportunity to observe the cars but nevertheless large crowds had congregated in the vicinity of the bridge and along the mill district Many residents of the West End got a glimpse of the train as it rushed through that section ot the city. At Mansfield, Pa., through" the blunder of a switchman, the train, which was going very slow, ran into a siding, but no one was hurt and those on board knew nothing of the occurrence. General Sherman's Monument. General Sherman's dislike for display was well known. He had directions issued at various times in relation to his funeral and eKo ss to his monument, Regarding the latter. Lieutenant Thackara, a son-in-law of the General, said yesterday, while the train was at the Union station: "The General said that he wanted no demonstration after his death but a military luneral, such as he was en titled to according to his rank, lie had been at General Grant's funeral, and this was wh.it made Lint so positive in Lis position. He said that hedid not want his body tukej over the country like Gen eral Gram's had been, ana then hare his bodv deposited on the banks of the Hudson, where there was no one to take care of any thing. "He has made a will, and in it he strictly stipulates that the funeral expenses be paid out of his estate. He has even gone so far as to choose the monument that is to be erected over his grave. He decided on the kind and cost of it, even to what lettering mould be on it. All he desires is to have ti.e date ot his birth, his rank and the date o: his death, and besides this only two words, viz: 'True and Honest.' So'posi tive was he about there being no demon stration after his death, other than requested, that in his deliriums he would talk about it! In Jact, in this li-st sickness, he seemed to think oMhis more than anything else." WESTWARD BOUND. THE nJNEEAl TRAIN ON ITS WAY THOU PITTSBURG. It I Greeted at All Points in the Dead "Warrior's Native State by the G. A. R, School Children and Largo Crowds Halt at Columbus. Columbus, Feb. 20. The first stop of the funeral train in Ohio, the native State of the dead chieftain, was at Steubenville, at 9:30 a. m., where 2,000 people were gathered at the depot. As the train passed tnrongh the State it 'was greeted at various points by Grand Army posts and other military organizations. At Newconiers town all the public school children stood in a line at the street crossing, with beads un covered and carrying small flags edged with black. As the train passed by they could be heard singing "KearerMy God to Thee." Similar juvenile demonstrations were made at Coshocton and Trinway. A brief stop was made at Newark, and Columbus was reached at 255, where a struggling mass of humanity struggled to catch a glimpse of the cortege. Senator Sherman, ex-President Hayes, General Ewing and others of the party came from the train and bad a brief talk with the relatives living in the city who had come to the train. The officers from the United States garrison in this city were at the train to meet the Government officials. Quite a number of the relatives of the deceased Gen eral from Lancaster and Zanesville joined the funeral party at this point The mem bers or the joint legislative committee had a special car, which was hitched to the regu lar Panhandle train west following the funeral train. The train left Columbus at 3:15 p. m.

Joseph Loll, of Lower St. Clair township, has entered suit before Alderman King against his brother, Anton Loll, Charles Reible and a man named Height, for assault and battery. It is rather a peculiar case, from Loll's story. His father died some time ago, leaving some property. Joseph Loll thinks he is not treated as well as his brother Anton by bis mother, and that they areaiterhisshareoftheproperty. On Thurs day evening Beible and Height went to Loll's house and represented themselves to be con stables from Alderman King's office and served a warrant on Joseph Loll. He had an idea they were not all right, and refused to go with them. After quite a struggle, in which his younger brother assisted the alleged officers, while endeavoring to get away they offered to let him go if he would sign a paper which they exhibited. Here fused, and finally succeeded in breaking away from them. He then secured an ax and chased his assailants away. Yesterday morning Loll visited Alderman King and wanted to know what was the charge against him. Upon learning there was nothing against him he explained the circumstances to the Alderman, and finally entered suit for assault and battery. Anton Loll was arrested yesterday, and from him it was learned who the other two were. Ihey will be arrested and the hear ing will be held to-day, when some interest ing developments are expected. DUEL BETWEEN KEN AND BROOMS. Chief Bigelow Witnesses an Interesting Contest in New York. Chief Bigelow, of the Department of Public Works, returned Testerday from New Tork, where he had been for three days investigating the street cleaning methods in vogue in the Metropolis. The subject is being thoroughly sifted just now owing to a dispute between the Board of Public Works and an organization of indignation. The latter hold that sweeping the streets by hand is the only thorough method, while the officials cling to the machine sweepers. To settle this question the city has been divided into two sections, one being given up to the manual sweepers and the other to the ma chines. Chief Bigelow decided that the machines did just as good work as the men, to say nothiug of the difference ill speed. The Chief is congratulating himself on the fact that Pittsburg will soou own the teams which haul the sweepers, and will therebv allow him to secure better results. One thing he wants to remedy, and that is the sweeping of the main thoroughfares just as the theaters are letting out, which has re sulted in the destruction of many opera bon nets and the loss of much temper. A new schedule will be arranged, which will keep the sweepers on the side streets until all good citizens are at home. Killed on the Kailroad. The bodies of two unknown men were found on the Pennsylvania tracks yesterday, one at Swissvale, the other at Nineveh. They were badly mutilated, and were turned .over to me authorities at these places, mf.W WrW- w REGARDING CONVICTS The Western Penitentiary Inspectors Issue Their Usual REPORT ON THAT INSTITUTION. Requesting of the Legislature a Large Appropriation to THOROUGHLY PINISH THE SOUTH WING The biennial report of the Inspectors of the State Penitentiary for the "Western dis trict of Pennsylvania, has been forwarded to Harrisburg. In their report the inspectors announce that the work on the south wing has been steadily prosecuted, to a great extent by prisoners, and add that the steady increase of population has indicated other necessities, and the board recommends an appropriation, which has already been approved by the State Board of Charities., for completing the south wing, building 40 cells for female prisoners, a chapel in which all the prison ers can be brought together at certain times, a building for Btorageond preserving sup plies, and a stable. Formerly, the building used for female J prisoners was amply commodious, but in these two years the number has more than doubled, and the house has become unsuit able and entirely inadequate. The board, after careful consideration, decided to pro ceed at once with the work, as they deemed it an imperative necessity to provide separate cells for each prisoner, their construction has progressed as rapidly as the weather would permit, and it is expected to have them finished by April next A Consummation Long Desired. A systematic grading and classification of prisoners will be introduced as soon as the south wing is ready for occupancy. "While this is a new departure, the board has long desired its accomplishment, inasmuch as the systematic recognition of merit under this plan has in view the best interests of the criminal by placing him under conditions most favorable for reformation of character, the great end and aim ot prison discipline, the attainment of which is of prime im portance, not only to the prisoner imt to society at large. The report continues : While this institution has been remarkably fortunate since its removal to Riverside, in the matter of development of insanity, yet the statistics ot the Commonwealth show a largely increasing numher of insane prisoners. There are now over 300 criminal insane cared for by the State, many of them unprovided with any attention beyond that afforded by institutions never intended or equipped for such service. The establishment of an asylum within walls, with such buildings and equipments as will combine suitable arrangements for their proper care and treatment, with the security of a prison is strongly recommended by the Inspectors to the Legislature. Money Needed for the Next Two Tears. The report concludes with a request for the following appropriations for the vears 1891 and 1892: For finishing sorthwing, building an addi tion for female prisoners, a chapel, sup ply building, stable and storage building, (30,000 For salaries for two years 70,000 Books and stationery for prisoners 1,000 (151.000 And tbe usual gratuities to discharged prisoners. Warden Wright, in his report says: The number in the prison at the close of the year was "S3, or 100 more than at the end of 18JSS. Of the whole number received in the past two years. 356, or 59 per cent, were under 30 ypars of aire; 2SS. or 39.47 per cent, were less than 25 years old (in the same time and from tbe same counties 132 entered tbe new State reforma tory). The number of repeaters was S6. or 1126 per cent: in tbe previous two years 16 per cent were of this class. Four hundred and Sixty nine, or nearly 78 percent, bad no trades; 107, or nearly 18 per cent, were illiterate or nearly so; 321, or 53 23 per cent, were natives of Pennsyl vania; 156, or 25.87 per cent, were born in other States; and 126. or 20.90 per cent, were foreign born; 454, or 75.29 per cent were convicted of crimes against property, and 149, or 21.71 per cent, of crimes against person. Upon the completion of the sonth wing the prison will have 1,180 cells for general use, com plete in all details excent light at night; can dles are used at present, but electric light should be procured to light the cells and grounds as soon as practicable. The Work Bono By Convicts. As a rule the extent of labor in prisons is known by few. No matter where the prison may be, a large proportion of its inmates are reqnired in the routine work, such as cooking, baking, washing, cleaning, and many other de tails of ordinary prison duty. Nearly every prison maintains a large working party to keep up repairs in buildings and grounds, all being at labor alike useful and necessary, but with out any income for its result. It naturally follows that tbe labor of the men who are employed in productive industries does not go far toward tbe cost of maintenance; besides tbis tbere are many other causes why the earnings are limited; the character of the labor is crude, unskilled, often unwilling and restless for chance. But for every one in prison, labor maintains its position as the leading factor in prison treatment. Wo have only the making of mats, mattings and brooms from which an income is derived. Much of tbe work is of a nominal character, but even that is pre ferable to the demoralization of idleness. Labor in prison should he useful, thorough and cheerful in character; when it is such its bene fits cannot be overestimated. The total expenses for 1889 were 589,867 31, and for 1890, $94,282 34. The revenue for 1889 was ?93,415 06, and for 1890, 98.126 34. The Treasurer's report show3 that S74, 626 88 was expended on account of new buildings, ?93,650 50 for subsistence and ?35,000 in salaries to officers. The receipts include 5111,784 63 from sales of mats and matting and 515,044 96 from sales of brooms. One thousand nine hundred and sixty-five dollars and five cents was given in gratui ties to prisoners on their discharge. Nativity of the Year's Aggregation. Of the 313 prisoners received during the year, 216 were white males of American birth, 3 white females, 30 colored males and 3 colored females of the same nationality. Of 8 foreign born male prisoners and 3 female, 16 were from Hungary and 8 from Ireland. Pennsylvania furnished 165 and New York 24 o; the native-born prisoners. The crimes which sent the greatest number of inmates to the penitentiary last year were larceny, 57 cases; larceny and receiving stolen goods, 16; robbery 9 and burglary 12, and murder in second degree 13. The total number of prisoners confined in the pen is 1,039. Of prisoners received during 1890, 290 in number, 9 are under 18 years of age, 23 from 18 to 21, 7 between 60 and 70, and 1 over 70 years. Fifty-two of the total were abstainers, 91 moderate drinkers, 122 "occasionally intoxicated," and 25 intern perate; 97 were Catholics, 91 Methodists, 25 Presbyterians, 25 Lutherans, 13 Baptist, 6 United Brethren, 5 Episcopalians and 18 to other beliefs, 10 were of no creed. The physician reports four deaths for 1889, and eight deaths anfl two suicides for 1890. The report continues: Of the 603 convicts received during the past two years. 163 were in impaired health, eight in bad bealtb, and five meutally impairedat tbe time of their admission. Of the whole num ber discharged during the past two years, all, with few exceptions, have left the prison in an improved state of health.
