WILMINGTON, Del, Feb. 2.-ln striking
contrast to the wretched weather at her
daughters funeral two weeks ago to-day,
the body of Mrs. Bayard was consigned to
the family vault to-day in Old Swedes'
ehurchyard. while the sun shOne brightly
on the crisp and but slowly-thawing snow.
Otherwise the funeral of to-day was almost
a repetition of the recent one. An even
greater thrOng overlooked the church, but
the obSeQuies were as simple and there was
the same avoidance of ceremony. The
same pall-bearers who followed the daugh-
ter's coffin followed the mother to her rest
ing place, few yards from the church
door. AS the casket reposed ON its cata-
falque. awaiting the short service, it was
literally hidden in flowers. At the head
rested pillow of camelias interviewer with
maidenshair fern, an Offering from the
president. There was also a massive cross
of purple violetS, with a bunch of Gala
lilies bursting from the center, from the Ia
dies of the cabinet.

MISS FOLsoM'S ARRIVAL.

How the Reporters Were outwitted-In-
cidents or the Voyage.
NEw YORK May 23.-Miss Folsom ar
rived from Europe last night on the steam
er Nordland, OF the Red Star Line. The
steamer was met at quarantine By a reve'
nue. cutter, with Col Lamont and Health
Officer Smith on board. Miss Folsom, her
mother, and her uncle Mr.. Benz Folsom,
we're taken on board the cutter aud brought
to the city, where they joined Miss Rose
Cleveland, who has been staying at the
honse Of a friend here for several days
The reporters, who have been vigilantly
watching for Miss Folsom's arrival, were
completely ou;witted BY the precautions
which had been taken 20 secure secrecy for
that event. Only two of the morning pa
pers published the fact of the lady arrival,
aud even the representatives Of those lucky
journals were unable to obtain an Interview
with her, or even to follow the movements
of the revenue cutter closely enough to
learn where the party were landed, much
less where they took up their abode for the
night.
1t is learned from her fellow passengers
on the Nordlsnd that Mics Folsom made
many friends during the voyage by her I'M
affec' ed aud winning manner. She is de-
sc.i5ed as tall and handsome, and in com
plexiou a light brunette, with large blue
eyes. She contributed q pleasing little
story 10 the Spray" a small paper pub
lished By the passengers on the way over.
She also distinguished herself by command
ing the vessel Tor a few moments Captain
Nlckels gave her charge Of the bridge on
Wednesday when pilot had been signsled
10 cone aboard she rang the bell 10 stop
the engines, and after the pilot had
climbed on deck ehe gave the signal to stsIt
the vessel sgain. Those who witnessed
this remarkable tea declared their belief
that she is fully capable of helping to man
are the ship of State when the proper time
arrives. Miss Folsom did not learn OF her
graudtather's death until her arrival.

The Body Buckles Down to
Business.
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE INCREASED
From Five to Eleven Members---Mr.
PowderIy's Plans Not Made
Public.

CLEVELAND, May 2s.-The Knights Of
Labor buckled down to business to-day
and held two sessions. The Committee on
Laws presented their report recommend
ing that the General Executive Committee
be increased from FIVE to eleven members
After an hour discussion the recommends
ton was agreed to. The six new mem
bers will be elected by ballot and will serve
during the uuexpired year, which ends IN
October. Permanent headquarters will be
opened in Philadelphia, and if necessary
the Board will sit through the year, instead
of assembling at the call OF the General
Master Workman.
4 resolution was adopted giving Mr..
Pswderly power to recall the commission
of all organizers.
The subject Disappointing competent Or
ganizers and the means to be. taken for
their selection was discussed.
PowDERLY's PLANS.
Rumors abroad last night to the effect
that Powderly had presented his plan for
the future government of the Knights of
Labor in yesterday session of the conven-
ton, led that gentleman to declare this
morning that such was not the case. Only
Turner aud few friends, who am certain
have not spoken publicly Of it, know what
are my plans.
Many delegates favored the compulsory
formation of State Assemblies, having the |
power 10 institute strikes and boycotts
which is now vested in the local and dis
trict assemblies, the decision OF the State
Assembly 10 be sustained by the order in
general. According to the constitution,
as i. stands now, the order in any State
may from State Assembly consisting OF
delegates from each district assembly. In
Michigan and two or three other States
such assemblies are now in vogue, but they |
have not power TO act that it is proposed
they should have In Michigan the State
Assembly has acted in a number of seri- |
GUS difficulties and the Knights of that
State have engaged in fewer strikes than |
those of any Other State in the Union |
The bensfcisl effect wrought in this in
stance has indsced the Michigan delegates
to favor the plan for the proposed changes
in the Constitution.
The Executive Board has decided to 90 |
