HIS PASTOR’S TRIBUTE
Arden, N. Y,, Sept. 11.—Between
llifty and sixty of the country's most
prominent men, including financiers,
lawyers, physicians and men well
known in the business world, will at-
tend the funeral of Edward H. Hand-
man tomorrow. They will come from
New York on a special train leaving
Jersey City at 2 o’clock. At St. John's
Episcopal church, a little stone chapel,
near the foot of Tower Hill, they will
join the group of mourners from
Arden House.
Employes to Honor Him.
Several hours before the arrival of
the New York visitors 3 procession of
500 workmen employed on iheHarri-
man estate will march slowly over the
ioad leading to the uncompleted
palace on the hill.
At 9 o’clock in the morning, the em-
ployes will be permitted to file
through the room where lies the body
ot the man of whom one of them said
today:
One Man’s Tribute.
"At times he seemed a workman
like ourselves—just an older work-
man whom we cared a good deal
about.”
No precautions have been omitted
to protect the funeral car on Its way
down the hill. Sixteen of the most,
stalwart workmen will act as a guard
of honor.
Morning Service,
The ceremony at the house at 10
o'clock will be a communion service
conducted by the family chaplain, the
Bev. Dr. .1. Holmes M'ofinlni.oss.
None will be present but Mrs. Harri-
man and her children. At 11 o'clock
the public memorial service will be
held at. St. John's church, at which
Dr. McGiilnnesa will deliver the only
eulogy. \
Many Men on Guard.
No pains have been spared to make
the funeral itself at 3 o’clock as
private as possible. To prevent the
intrusion of persons not specially in-
vited. sixty men will guard all the
approaches to the church and the
three miles of road over which the
funeral cortege winds.
Will Close the Roads.
The town boards of Woodbury and
Tuxedo voted today to close tho
roads in those townships leading to
St. John's church. Of all the tokens
of respect none Is more striking than
that of the Erie railroad that runs
through Arden. Every train on this
system will stand still between 3:30
and 3:32 tomorrow afternoon while
the funeral services are in progress.
Carloads of Flowers.
It is estimated that flowers already
received and yet to come will fill four
freight cars. There was a steady
stream of carriages and automobiles
all day bringing the tributes up to
Arden House. Mrs. Harriman tonight
ordered that all additional flowers be
sent direct to the church. Floral
tributes have accumulated at the Erie
station in Jersey City in such quan-
tities that two special cars will he
■used tp brjng them up to Arden to-
morrow morning.

The telegraph office has received
more than 40ft messages expressing
condolence. Messages from Mrs.
Nicholas liOtigwortb, .1. P. Morgan,
Thomas Ryan and Charles P. Taft
were among those that, came today.

H. J. Simmons Says
Mr. Harriman Was
a Railroad Genius
One of World’s Greatest In-
dustrial Generals Says
Local Railroader.
That Edward H. Harriman was not
only recognized as a genius, but ad-
mired by executives of competing rail-
roads, was plainly evident from the
statement made by H. J. Simmons,
general manager of the El Paso &
Southwestern, last night. Mr. Sim-
mons said:
"Mr. Harriman was beyond a doubt
one of the greatest railroad men the
country has ever known. He was a
remarkable man, one who knew the
railroad business from the ground up.
His name will go down in history as
one of the world's greatest industrial
generals. In losing Mr. Harriman the
world 'lost a genius whose place It
will he hard to fill. Wo deeply feel
the death of this great, railroader.”
The local shops closed at uoou yes-
terday out of respect to Mr. Harri-
man and advice^ received here were
to the effect that the general offices
closed all day. Practically all the
local railroad men have expressed
deep regret at the passing of Mr
Harriman.
This afternoon at 1:30 all railroad
activity will be stopped on the {}. H.
road in El Paso, this corresponding to
the time of the funeral at Arden.
MICHAEL O’BRIEN DIES.
New York, Sept. 11.—Michael
J. O'Brieu, president of the Southern
Express company, died today.
Harriman Was Not
Poor Boy, But Had
Wealthy Parents
Rev. Monroe Says He Knew
Family Well—Were Cul-
tured and Rich.
Pensacola, Fla., Sept. 11.—"Edward
H. Harriman had no idea that his ill-
ness was of a serious natut% up to
within a few weeks of his departure
from England.”
This statement was made today by
the Rev. G. Monroe Royce, rector of
Christ church hero, and former pastor
of the-little church at Arden, N. Y.,
the Harriman home.
"1 also note,” said Mr. Royce, “that
Mr. Harriman is accredited with start-
ing life as a poor boy in a broker’s
office and that his parents were poor
people. Nothtng further from the
truth. I knew intimately the Harri-
man family for many years. Mr. Har-
riman's mother was both cultured and
wealthy and his father also was pos-
sessed of considerable wealth. Mr,
Harriman began life as a bank clerk
and later established the bank of Har-
riman brothers. There was where the
real foundation for his fortune was
laid.”

Bre scia, Italy, Sept. 11.—Glenn H.
Curtis. American aviator, before, an
enthusiastic crowd, made a flight to-
day of 50 kilometers (31,05 miles) in
49 minutes, 24 seconds. Curtiss made
his appearance in the competitions
for the Grand Prix of $10,000, and
although this event will he continued
tomorrow, the '.iilllianl performance of

the winning flight.- ,
A few minutes before 6 o'clock, the
time limit, Curtiss, biplane was run
cut. The American flag was run up
over the judges’ stand and a moment
later Curtiss left the ground easily.
The aeroplane moved swiftly,'without
the least sign of pitching or rolling.
Curtiss kept at a height varying
from 40 to 50 feel, hut he took each
turn rather wide. When he landed
there were shouts of "Long Live
America." ‘Ixmg live Curtiss.”
Senators, diplomats and government
officials joined with the thousands of
spectators in an ovation to the daring
aviator.
Curtiss estimated that he covered
about 35 miles, for he bad listed to the
ground on the corners and was carried
somewhat out of his course by the
wind. He said he might have gone
much faster, hut purposely went at an
easy pace on account of the distance,

OF HIS NEW TARIFF COMMISSION
Approves Selection of Secretary MacVea^-Commis-
sion Will Help to Decide Points About lfaximum
and Minimum Rates of New Bill*
I CAPTAIN 0SB0N OF ARCTIC CLUB SAYS
EXPLORER HAS RUINED HIMSELF BY MOUTH
Beverly. Mass., Sept. IX.— Preaideut
Taft this afternoon announced the
appointment of the new tariff com-
mission, ns follows:
Prof. Henry C. Emery of Yale,
chairman.
James B. Reynolds of Boston, as-
sistant chairman.
Alvin H. Sanders of Chicago, edi-
tor and publisher of the Breeders’
Gazette.
The board is authorized to employ
experts to investigate foreign and do-
mestic tariffs.
Taft Makes Statement.
In announcing the selection of this
new hoard, authorized by the Payne
tariff hill, the following statement
was given out at the executive offices
tonight:
"The president and the secretary of
the treasury have agreed upon the
plan that these gentlemen are to con-
Rt it tit the board and are to he given
authority to employ such 'special ex-
perts as may be needed in the investi-
gation of Hie foreign and domestic
tariff.”
MacVeagh Made Selection.
Mr. Taft had left entirely in the
hands of Secretary MacVeagh the se-
lection of the new commission, and
today approved the men recommended
by Mr. MacVaegh. It Bad been a ques-
tion until today M gto whether llte
new bottl'd should coiiist of three pi-
five members. It fingl’y was agreed,
however, that the smiHler number, as-
sisted by such experts as they deem-
ed necessary, would pet more quick-
than the larger number and with equal
effectiveness.
There has been discussion ever
since the passage of the Payne bill
as to Just what authority the tariff
commission shall ha|e.
To Aid tha President,
As the measure left the house ot
representatives It provided that tho
commission or hoard Af experts should
advise both the president and con-
gress on technical questions about the
tariff. The senate dij not approve of
this broad authority and so amended
the provision for the, appointment of
the board as to proscribe that the
duties should be limited to assisting
the president in the administering of
tiie section relating to maximum and
minimum rates.
No announcement was made as to
what salaries the commissioners will
receive. Congress appropriated $75,-
000 to cover salaries and expenses of
investigation.
