body has been embalmed, no organic
disease was found, he having died ofex-

Of March 18th with the storm then rag
ing. Funeral services will be held In
Trinity chapel, New York, Rev. Morgan
Dix officiating, and the body will be
taken to Utica by special train and In

respect to Mr.. Conkling's memory, and
general tokens of sorrow and esteem
were given. Numberless kilograms OF
coincidence have been received, all at
testing the deep regard in which the
dead senator was held.

The Louisiana election is over and
Nichols is declared elected by about 90
600 majority. 1t is now claimed that the
negroes voted largely for the democratic
candidate. This is done to smooth over
the Inevitable conclusion that, with he-
gro vote polled and counted Nichols
would have been showed under. 1t Is
merely a verification of the confession Of
judgment made by Watterson, when he
said that no man was entitled to Gre
dence or respect who maintained that
the negro vote was cast and counted In
the south where the negroes were in the
majority. In the City of New Orleans
the reform democrats uniting with the
republicans, carried the city against the
old democratic nominees and defeated
the ring by about $500 majority on an
average. Counting out is being at
tempted In the city, but with what sue
cess is as yet unknown.

KNOCKING DOWN FARES.

The opening of the Fort Worth and
Denver road has neoessitated revision
of the passenger tariff on all roads from
the Atlantic sea board to Colorado. A
new schedule, twenty-five per cent.
lower than the old one, went into effect
Yesterday. This was rendered necessary
by the combination of the Fort Worth
and Denver line with the Morgan line
OF steamers at Galveston, by which
route cut was made on the old trans
continental rates of fully twenty-five per
cent. To those who have paid the enor-
nous rates charged to Colora-
do points from the Missouri riv-
er and eastward, this reduction
will be blessing. Chicago and
st. Louis come into the list of points at
which the reduction takes effect and the
interstate commerce law will make the
rate uniform at all points west to New
York, at least to the extent of reducing
fares from minor points to the New
York figures. The same is true OF all
points between Chicago and the Mis-
souri, river, so that the reduction will be
such as will affect the public generally.
This result has long been prayed for, as
the exactions of all roads that run into
Colorado have been simply enormous.
Some change, also, is needed to bring
the rates into California down to human
prices, and the cut to Colorado
will reduce by so much the rates to the
Pacific, unless the roads tuck on the
twenty-five per cent. reduction In an In
crease from Denver to San Francisco.
The tendency in all the state legis-
latures seems to be to legislste against
the entertainments OF the railway lines
upon the purses OF the travelling pubic.
Iowa reduces the fare Of all roads Of the
first-class from three cents per mile to
two cents per mile aud schedules up to
three cents instead of four, as heretofore,
on lower grade roads. Cheaper
fares mean more general travel.
and this means more general
kno Wedge concerning all sections of the
country, and this means that the more
desirable sections of the union are to re-
ceive the immigration that has hitherto
been directed into certain channels by
land and railway agencies interested In
developing certain localities. Cheap
railway fares will benefit the south gen.
orally, and Texas particularly.
The railroads of the state have ex-
tended hslf-fare courtesies to all dele
gates attending the state republican
convention. Only one fare will be
charged for the round trip by all lines
included In the Texas traffic association.
The convention will duly appreciate
this liberal policy on the part of the
Texas railway. The traffic association
seems to have a more direct, positive,
comprehensive and intelligent knowl-
edge of the republican convention than
was manifested by the Waco Examiner
in recent sOreed, but then the Exam
liner does not have to know In order to
satisfy Its democratic constituency. A
few pictures answer just as well.

Imposing on Children.

A citizen in the eighth ward says that
the storekeepers there seem to have a
practice Of imposing upon children sent
there for goods, by sending inferior or
damaged goods and giving wrong change.
These things are rectified If complaint is
made but give much annoyance and
cause inconvenience TO customers. Some
people must send children, II they can
not go themselves, and they think that
they should have better treatment.

The next directory Of San Antonio
should give the names of the "kept"

Such list might enlighten a squad OF

High license is getting to be the pop
ular weapon against prohibition. 1t is
halfway house. Licences should be
made null and void, II the retailer viO-
lates the laws of the state. II one class
can violate the law with impunity, why
punish drunksrds, prostitutes and dis
orderly persons? They should have the
same latitude,
Whenever a man gets so chock full OF
self-copceit as to set up for wit and
humorist, he becomes bore and a
damphool.
The San Antonio dudes explode the
traditional belief, that men, In order
to live were bound to have brains in
their heads.
The death of hslf q dozen skinflints
and mossbacks in San Antonio. would
give the city q tremendous forward
movement. They hate enterprise and
progress, otherwise they would help
with their money.
The constitution of the defunct con-
federate states expressly forbade the i'm
position of customs duties for the pro-
teotion of southern industries. The prin-
cipal advocates of free trade In congress
not only hail from the south, but were
Thoroughbred seoessiOnists. The war
on the tariff is at bottom, purely sec
tional. The solid south as represented
in congress, is the life and soul of the
war on the manufacturing industries of
the union, four-tifths of which are To-
Gated in the north and in republican
states, circumstance that accounts for
the milk in the cocosnut." Well, the
tariff will disintegrate the democratic
party and hurl 1t headlong from national
power next November. The mugwumIs
cannot save it from the tidal wave OF
popular wrath at the shameless aban-
donment of the tariff plank In the Chi
cago platform of 1884. Cleveland has
laid aside his mask and the country can
not be fooled again by meaningless plati-
tudes.
San Antonio is basking in the sun
light of paternal government. Its
mayor runs the whole shebang. TIE
council in effect, says to him with orien-
tai servility, Ito hear is to obey" The
street commissioner having been elect
ed over the mayors candidate, has been
so crippled and hsmpered as to be pow
erless to perform his duty to the public.
There are a host of citizens in San
Antonio who fought bravely against
prohibition, who would make excellent
mayors.
