KNOXVILLE AND CINCINNATI
What Our Delegates Said on Change.

From the Comm mercisl of Sunday morning.
The chamber of commerce was Wis
tied by q number Of our southern
guests yesterday, some Of whom were
invited to address the chamber and
did 80.
Judge Henry Fl. Ipgersoll, of Ten
nessee, was the first speaker. He pres
sented quite an argument for the con-
struction of o road from Knoxville to
Emery Gap.
He was followed by NJ. J. Condor,
Of Knoxville, who said In the course
of bis talk:
"We are here as the representatives
OF the city OF Knoxville, in response
to an invitation to participate in the
grandest banquet ever given by any
city In the Union. We hope that the
next banquet we meet at shall be at
Knoxville, upon the completion of the
Emory Gap railroad, which shall con.
meet the metropolis OF East Ten.
nessee with the Queen City, which
shall create commercial relations
which shall bind us together with
stronger ties of friendship than the
bands of steel that bring US in such
relations. You have built 1856 miles of
railroad to shorten the distance from
Cincinnati to Chattanooga ITO miles.
What we want now is to build forty
miles OF railroad to save distance of
152 miles to Knoxville The distance
now to Knoxville is 44S miles, which,
with a connection at Emery gap, the
distance to Knoxville would be 296
miles. In making the connection at
Emory gap you increase your freight
and travel and benefit both the north
and south.n
Mr.. Condor was succeeded by Col
G. w. Charlton, who read an article
prepared for the occasion, Sc ting forth
the desire of Knoxville to form an
alliance with Cincinnati by way of
the Southern railroad. He said be
had always thought that Knoxville
ought TO have been the terminus of
the road. But connection can easily
be made even now. He asked Cincin-
nati's co operation in building such
con nection via Emory Gap. He was
happy to say that negotiations would
be closed to- day whereby the railroad
running from Atlsnta to Washington
and Norfolk will become the owner of
the Knoxville and Augusta railroad,
which will open up highway to the
seac0ast. He said If the business men
Of Cincinnati and Knoxville could
have full and open conference he he.
lieved the Emery Gap connection
would be undertaken at once.

A GOOD deal has been said in some
quarters about investigating certain

We do not fear this. Let 1t come. The
number of officers from whom GER

has borrowed money and never repaid

with profit. Let the lightning strike,
but let 1t strike in the right place.

A funeral Without . Corpse.

London telegraph
Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, with
the part Of Hamlet omitted by p%articu-
lar desire" would scarcely be a more
remarkable performance than a burial
from which the corpse had been left
out" by mistake. Such inattention
to detail on the part of all concerned
in the ceremony of sepulture, a. is in
volved in the latter omission, appears
almost incredible. Nevertheless a
strange story. published in the lead
ing Italian newspapers, gives an ex-
ample of this similar anomaly. 1t is
stated that a native of Bossito, in
Lombardy, lately suffered bereave-
ment by the death of his wife, and
his grief for the departed was so
poignant that. his relatives deemed it
expedient to prevent him from
being present at the final preparations
for the funeral ceremony, and from
assisting in person at its celebration.
Returning to his house latein the even
ing after the burial. and entering his
bed room, he found to his horror anu
CONSERVATION the lifeless form of
his wife, robed in its death cerements,
reclining on the bier, and still avail
ing interment. The widower rushed
into the street, and lost no time in no.
tifying what he had seen to the police
authorities, who at first inclined to
the opinion that sorrow had turned
his brain. In accompanying him
home, however, they o convinced
themselves that his extraordinary
statement was in every particular cor
rect. Inquiries were forthwith insti-
tuted, and resulted ia the amazing
discovery, that the village undertaken
had forgotten all about the corpse"
and had nailed up an empty coffin,
which had been subsequently conveyed
and consigned to the grave with due
religious ceremony and sorrowful OBJ
servance.
