departure of the Remains for Their
Last Resting Place.
WASHINGTON, Fab. 1.-The body of
Mrs. Bayard, wife OF Secretary Bayard,
was removed TO Wilmington, Del, to-day
for interment. An impressive scene was
presented at the depot. Around the ma
hogany oasket, the top of which was cov-
cred with floral offerings, stood the Presi-
dent OF the United States, the Secretaries
OF the Treasury and War and Postmaster
General Villas, to pay the last sad tribute
to all that was mortal of the wife Of the
Secretary of State. The President stood
next to the casket, Secretary Manning
being at his right hand, while Postmaster
General Villas and Secretary Endicott
were just inside the station gate.
LINE OF CARRIAGES.
Outside the depot stood long line Of
carriages containing the ladies of the
Cabinet, and in the absence Of Secretary
Whitney, who was called over to New
York, he was represented by his wife.
None of the ladies left their carriages, but
awaited the return of the President from
his sad errand, when the cortege sepa-
rated and the party returned to their
respective homes. When the body-bearers
lifted their burden the President and his
party removed their hats, and stood bare
headed until the solemn procession dis
appeared among the cars at the southern
end of the platform.

AN INCENDIARY FLARE.UP.
Several Firms Burned Out with Heavy
LOss at jackson.

JACKSON, Miss, Feb. 1.-At 4 O'Clock
this morning fire was discovered in Jones'
restaurant and hotel comprising three
frame buildings. The flames spread to
the Angeles hall from building occu-
pied by Albert Murrell and thence south
to Greensback and the warehouses
of G. j. Beck, I. A.. Aler and
i. I. Pearsons, all OF which were
destroyed with their contents. Lemly e.
Bros establishment was badly dam aged
The total loss is estimated at 500, 900.
The insurance is about $4,000. I. IL.
Jones, clerk, was badly hurt by Jump.
ing from burning building. The ire is
believed to have been of incsndiary origin.
GRAND HAVEN IN CONSERVATION.
GRAND HAVEN, MICH, Feb. ., A. NJ.
Fire broke out at 10 O'Clock tonight IN
the Detroit, Grand Haven and Milwaukee
freight house. Within a few minutes
nearly half of that immense structure,
which stretches nearly three squares
from south to north, was on fire. The fire
department responded quickly, but ow-
ing to a fierce southwest gale and
intense cold, has so far been
unable to check the flames, and at IL
O'Clock the entire structure was mass
OF flames, and will be au entire loss, to-
gether with all tne freight stored therein.
The nre department Is working heroic
ally, but can save nothing in the freight
house and the elevator, and all their eff
forts are now directed to adjoining build
ings. The passenger steamer City Of
Milwaukee, was living alongside Of the
elevator, and was barely saved.
AT lI:25 O'Clock the elevator was en-
tirely enveloped in flames, together with
the remainder OF the warehouse, and
nothing could save il. Lumber yards
are just north of the fire, and if they
catch the entire northwestern part of the
CITY will be doomed. The damage VIII be
very heavy. Twenty-Five or thirty freight
cars were destroyed. The companY's
books are safe. The excitement is intense,
and the whole city is fighting the flames.
The elevator has fallen and the ware
house north OF the elevator 10 on fire.
The prospects Of saving the passenger
depot are good. Three steamers have
come from Spring Lake to assist the local
department. AT l2:45 O'Clock the fire was
under control. but was still burning. The
loss will not fall short of $3.50 900, which
amount is covered by insurance.
4 TOWN NEARLY WIPED OUT.
BRowNwooD, TEX, Feb. 1.-Fire this
morning destroyed the post office and
almost the entire business portion of the
town. The loss is 600 and the insur-
ance $31 600.

Creditors Promised Payment In Full
A Run on Other Banks.
INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Feb. I,--Ritzinger
Bros.' bank, which has done a large bust
ness among Germans, did not open this
morning, the proprietors having made an
assignment. Ritzinger Bros. assigned to
George B. Yardes, who is regarded as a
conservative fnaucier. There had been
no run on the Ritzingers, but ii was
known that they had sustained some losses
and distrust caused gradual withdrawal
of customers. No statement has been
made beyond that OF the partners that
they can pay everything. A run began
on $. A. Fletcher & Co.'s bank, the oldest
in the city, but it measurably subsided
when it was announced that the bank,
torswarned, had provided cash against
every dollar of the demand liabilities.
Other banks had taken similar precau-
tions.
The liabilities Of Bitzinger & Bros, are,
in round numbers, deposits $685., ,000s other
debts 100000.
In the assets the real estate schedules
at 100000, and notes and other collateral
denOminated as semi-assets, and largely
held as security for money advanced,
$101, 900. When the debts are discharged
for which these are held they will prob
ably be exhausted, leaving 100000 real
estate to pay $3.50, 900 Of deposits, Under
the present condition of the real estate
market the probabilities are thahdeposi-
tors will not realize more than % cents ON
the dollar.

TARIFF REFORM.
An Expectancy that a Bin VIII be Passed
at this Session.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-Mr. Hewitt,
of New York, brought with him
when he came to Washington this winter
a copy of the tariff bill which he offered
in the last Congress, with some changes
which he had thought of making in it.
Since the session began he has conferred
with Chairman Morrison, of the Ways
and Means Committee, and other rev.
enue reformers about it. There have
been no formal conferences about it, but
at different times Mr.. Hewitt has talked
with the other revenue retormers in re-
gard to various features of it. While it
must not therefore be regarded as the
formal embodiment of the views
OF the revenue reformers, it
may safely be accepted as
the basis upon which a bill will be built
up in the Ways and Means Committee.
Chairman Morrison has as vet prepared
no tariff bill, cOntentiug himself with
making suggestions to Mr.. Hewitt
Speaker Carlisle, Chairman Morrison and
Mr.. Hewitt all think that tariff bill pro-
viding for moderate reductions will be
passed by the House, at least this session.
