BOB INGERsoLL's TRIBUTE.
His Eloquent Words at the Bier of the
Late Courtlandt Palmer.

NEW YORK, July 26.-The late home
of Courtlandt Palmer was crowded al
most to suffocation to-day by the friends
who came to attend his funeral services.
The Nineteenth Century Club, of which
Mr.. Palmer was the founder, was large
" represented and many of the
most distinguished men of the coun-
try were present The remains of the
deceased advocate Of freedom of
thought reposed naturally in a rosewood
casket which was laden with flowers.
Col. Robert g. Ingersoll, who deliv-
cred tire address, took position on the
stairs, and in a calm, tender tone Of
voice, said: ga thinker of pure
thoughts, speaker of brave words and
a doer Of generous deeds has reached
the silent haven that all the dead
have reached, and where the voy-
age of every life must end; and we, as
friends, who even now are Fastening
after him, are met TO do the last kind
acts that man can do for man-to tell
his virtues, to lay with tenderness and
tears his ashes in the secret place Of
rest and peace. Some one has said that
in the open hands of death, we find
only what they gave away. Let US be-
lieve that pure thoughts, brave words
die. Let us believe that they
bear fruit and add forever to the we'll
being of the human race; that self
DENYING life increases the moral wealth
Of men and gives assurance that the fu-
ture will be better than the past. A free
and independent man, one who de-
manded reasons and demanded free
dom, and gave what he demanded-one
who refused to be slave or master-such
a man was Courtlandt Palmer"
Col. Ingersoll finished by reading o.
of Mr.. Palmer's poems. Religious SER
vices were read by Mrs. Palmer's pas
tor, Rev. DR.. r. Heber Newton. The
cremation and interment of the ashes
will occur at the convenience Of the fam

TT. PETERSBURG, July 26.-The Journal
de st. Petersburg denies the statement
published in the Journal des Debats of
Paris that the meeting Of the Emperors
alarmed Turkey and that she will take
military precautions. The Journal adds:
Turkey is certainly included in the
countries that are anxious for peace.

BIG FIRE AT CINCINNATI.
Krippendorf, Dittman & Co.'s Shoe Fac
tory Completely Destroyed.

CINCINNATI, O., July 24.-About 4
O'Clock this morning the Waterman dis
covered fire in the second story of the
six story shoe factory of Krippendorf,
Dittman & Co., situated on the north
east corner of Sycamore and New
Street. The alarm was instantly given,
but before the fire department could
begin its fight, the flames
had reached the elevator and had
spread to all the upper floors. 1t was q
hard fight, but the fremen finally sue
ceeded in getting the flames under con-
troll. Every glass i'll the large shoe factory
of Baker, Gersle & Co., a hundred feet
away, was broken by the heat
and the window frames were
scorched. The south wall Of the
burning building fell outward bury
ing beneath it two humble dwellings
from which the occupants had fortunate
ly been removed. The other walls, ex-
cept the front and portion of the rear,
fell, one of them destroying a dwelling
on North Street. The front wall is in g.
very dangerous condition, and must be
thrown down as means of precaution.
The factory was one Of the largest in the
country, and was equipped with
machinery valued at 100000.
The building cost $4,000. The
stock and manufactured goods on hand
were inventoried a few days ago at $780,
600. The loss on everything is total,
making loss of $780, 900. The insurance
altogether amounts 10 1851 600. The
employees who are thrown out Of en-
ployment are $50, of whom $50 are wom-
en- and girls. The origin of the fire is a
mystery. There was no fire in the
building. Workingmen were on the
second floor as late as l o'clock this

Decision in the Union Cigarmakers' La
bel Litigation.


bel Litigation.
TRENTON, N. j., July 25.-Vice-
Chancellor Van Fleet has filed his de-
cision in the case of the Cigar makers
International Union against John r.
Williams, non-union cigar manufac-
turer of Newark. The compliments
brought the case in behalf of the Cigar
makers international Union of America
to protect the trademark owned by
them. This trademark consists of a la
bel which any manufacturer of cigars
employing members of the association
is authorized to place on box contain
ing cigars made by member of the as

member or the Cigarmakers' Interna
is claimed, largely assists in the sale of

The label has been counterfeited and
the complaint set forth that the
defendant had obtained possession
of number of these counter
feits, and was now engaged in
using them on boxes containing cigars
not made by members of the associa-
ton. The compliments asked for de-
cree restraining the defendant from
using their trade mark. The defendant
denied that these facts showed any
cause for action. The court said it had
no power to correct moral delinquencies
or redress moral wrongs. The COM
plainants could receive no relief unless
an invasion of clear property rights was
shown

CHICAGO, ILL.,, July 26.-Robert Hen
derson, of Silver City, 1. T., said to be a
millionaire, was found this morning in a
room at the Ogden House, unconscious
and barely alive. The gas in the room
had been blown out instead Of turned
off. It was first thought that Hender-
son had climbed on a chair and extin-
guished the light in a primitive way alb

The fact however that a man of s,
much wealth as Henderson is re present

ly inferior out of the way place, created
suspicion. Then it was stated that
Henderson was himself proprietor of
a large, well appointed hotel, and
would be extremely unlikely to
unthinkingly blow out the gas.
Theories of foul play and attempted
suicide were evolved. Henderson re-
manned in a comatose state TOR hours,

clans, and nothing could be learned
from him. The doctors we're unable to
