Similar to other images in this set, it appears to be the August 21, 1917 arrival of Belgian Diplomat Baron X in New York City. The stairs to City Hall are depicted.

NARA has similar images as part of records from the War Department (catalog.archives.gov/id/26431678 catalog.archives.gov/id/26431714)

According to that report, this is the casket being lifted onto a caisson from West Point in front of City Hall, starting a journey to St. Patrick's Cathedral and Woodlawn Cemetery. Theodore Roosevelt (who would die about 7 months later) is visible with the honorary pallbearers at center.
