O'Clock this morning, 10 attend the funeral
ceremonies of Archbishop Spalding. At
each gate leading to the Cathedral a
strong force ofpOlice were stationed 10
aid the Young Mems Catholic Friends
Society in carrying out the programme Of
arrangements and preserving order.
About halt past 0 O'clock The different
Catholic societies began 10 arrive, and as.
sisted by the police, succeeded IN reach.
ing places assigned them along Charles
and Franklin streets. The Papal ZOu.
aves, company OF young men from st.
James Church, numbering sixty, were
uniformed with gray, trimmed with red,
and bore small rifles.
Delegations were present from Phila.
delphia. Five colored societies appeared
in line at halEpast nine at the side door
The Cathedral was opened 10 pewholders
and reporters Ofthe press, and very soon
the Cathedral was filled in every part ex.
cept the space reserved for the attending
clergy. The formation Of the line was con-
cluded at about a quarterto ten o'clock.
Ina few moments the Cathedral bell was
tolled and the bells OF st. Alphonsus rung
a requiem the muflled drums sounded q
slow march, and the Papal Zouaves
moved up above the front gate
and formed in double file, with
arms reversed. The solemn cortege
then began descending the steps
Of the Archiepiscopal residence. 1t was
headed by three young men, the center
one carrying large crucifix and those on
each side large lighted candles. They
were followed by priests OF different
churches and students, solemnly chanting,
dressed in the robes Of their Office. The
next in order were Most Rev. Bishops
Foley and Wheelan, dressed in deep pur-
pie trailing robes, supported by boys.
They participated In the singing, and
were followed by other priests, also
chanting. They were followed by a
large number Of gentlemen. Next came
the bier and coffin, draped in black
cloth, and almost hidden under a
profusion Of choice flowers arranged
in crosses and garlands, supported'by six
pall.bearers, and members of the Arch
bishops Council. The Trustees of the
Cathedral acted as honorary pall.bearers,
and the clergy Of the arch diocese acted
as assistant pal. l.bearers 10 the members of

a most respectful silence prevailed. The
members Of the different societies were
ranged along the sidewalks, with their
banners draped in mourning, they raised
their hats and the whole assemblage In
tuitively followed their example. After
the procession entered the church the
gates were closed and religious services
were commenced.

SALT LAKE.
Universal Suffrage.

SALT LAKE, February 12.-Public at
tention, to-day, has been almost entirely
taken up with the election Of city officers.
The whole Mormon ticketwas, Of course,
elected under the female suffrage law.
Crowds of Mormon women and girls
flocked to the polls and voted, and it Is
believed voted far in excess Of the males.
In the early part Of the day the Liberals
worked hard, challenging Mormons on
the question Of citizenship, and prevent
ing hundreds from voting, but the Mormon
system soon convinced them that their
labors were useless. Even children
voted, and the Liberals finally abandoned
the election as a farce. 1t Is thought to.
day that the embassy will be obliged to
return to San Francisco and take o steam
er for the East via Panama, there being
no prospect Of the Union Pacific block
ade being raised for perhaps months. The
chlel ambassador Is somewhat out oil pa
tience, but expresses himself exceedingly
gratified with his visit TO Salt Lake. Min.
ister DeLong and all the Japanese are
looking forward TO the banquet and hope
tonight eager pleasure. The Townsend
House Is elaborately decorated for the oc-
casion with flags and notices. Over ono
hundred invitations to ladies were sent by
telegraph to-day. The Union Pacific OIL.
cials ask John Gilmore the charge for
running the blockade with stage coaches
for sixty days. The reply OF Gilmore was
81 900 q day. There Is much indignation
among merchants and business men thai
the Union Pacific has not before this made
arrangements 10 run the mail and pass
over the blockaded division by the old
stage road. Ifthe railroad would pay iol
It, communication could be kept oper
daily and passengers be sent around the
blockade without difficulty.

To-day about hundred laborers as.

for the purpose Of working on sewer.
In the meantime large and excited
crowd otwhite and black laborers assem-
bled. Some Of them asserted that the

taking bread from the labOring men OF
the city, and loud threats were made that
