Qnynor, ly ing In stale. Unmindful of a heavy downpour of rain In tho morning, frequent showers during the after noon ami threatening skies tonight, tho people came In a continuous stream silently to flud places in tho long slow-moving procession that ox tended for half a mile along lower Broadway and through city hall park j to the city hall. It was New York's spontaneous tribute to its dead mayor. In the long line were street clean-j <-rs in their white uniforms, police men, 11 re me n ami men high in the of ficial life of the city ami state, but for the most par: the procession was made up from ttie .meat socnllcd mid dle ciass. About a fifth of the crowd was made up of women and children, and many of the latter carrb d s nail wreaths which thoy placed m ir the coflln.

"No king, no emperor ever had a tribute paid to him like this great outpouring of citizens to day. It is a tribute from the hearts of tile people." All last night tlie police kept guard around city hall park ami had dlfll eulty in keeping the crowds moving, as many tried oven at an inordinately early hour to >:et in line to view the body. Three policemen and three firemen in reliefs of half hour stood rigidly at attention during the night beside the colllll, which was draped in the stars ami stripes and the mayor's flag, wltile beneath could be seen the colors of tho union jack, placed there ;>t the request of Iho Qnynor family In recognition of the courtesy extended by the city of I/Ivor pool upon the arrival of the mayor's body In thni city after his death ?I sea. Crossed branches of palms of victory were the only Moral decora tions on the < over of the collin. Those branches were sent by the family. Behind the bier hung the draped pic lure of Mayor Gnyuor. The bier rest ed on the sumo spot where the bodies of many famous men have laid in slate. The last was thai of Governor Ceo. Clinton, whoso body nfter resting in the grave for many years was re movi '. to another Community ami re mained for a few hour* in the city hall. Other noted men v.'. o e have rested beneath t'1" . 1,1 '-:' hall were Abraham Lincoln, Genera U. S. Cr.mi. Horace Creely and Gel) .los. A. Paozo, president of Venezm la Pnfhcfic Incidents. Pathetic Incidents were nunieroii during tli" r.dy, as men and womct whom tho late mayor had befriend' looked upon iiis face. Among tae was a Itrooklyn youth whose pai Mayor Caynor took when it y leged he was being prosecuted police and which resulted in an in vestigation and also the retnov.il i the boy's picture from the rogue's gal lory. While the thousands journeyed l< town to pay their respects in i thousands of others attended moaio services in many churches in all purl of the city.

The following is the charge of Judge Gage to the Jury In the Will Fair ease at SpartUllbUI'g, where Will Fair was tried and acquitted of the charge of criminal assault upon a white woman of that vicinity: "Gentlemen of the Jury: "As I stated to the grand Jury on Monday, so I state to you now that a case like this not only tries the pris oner at the Par but it even tries the very integrity of our institutions. " Mob cried out in his despair, 'Oh; that 1 had a day between Tin e and me.' You. gentlemen of the jury, ate Hi day that stands between the bar and the penalty of the law. Von know what rape is the carnal knowledge of a woman by force against her will. "The defend:; tit does not deny, 0 I should Bn> ..ore properly, his coun sel do not deny, that on the day nam ed at the time of the assault defendant was} in that vicinity; but the conten tion is bold and strong that it there was any wrong done to her this de fendant t'.iu n<>; do it. ?"The jury may take one of three views in this ruse: (n) Thal de ml an: did it. (b) That some other ue gro did it. let Thai it was not done at all. "The human mind is a wonderful thing. The most of us stand Jusl on ! I the bolder line between COllsclounsess and unconsciousness, and sometimes 11 just one step carries us beyond the veil from what we sec and hear ami know to that which we do not see, do not hear, and do not know. We are wonderfully made, and woman is more wonderfully made than man. ( ??'I'll.- object of this trial is not to | ( ascertain who did this thin;:, or. If It was done at all. The object is to llnd whether this defonadnt did it. and the law requires that you must be satisfied beyond a reasonable doubt that he did it.
