STANFoRD'S TOMB.
Description of the Most Magnificent
Sepulchre in America.

[Bosson Transcript
The architect who planned the magnificent
mausoleum of Senator Stanford at San Fran
cisco says that it will be the most elaborate
repository for the dead ever built in this
country. In style of architecture the simple
but effective methods of the ancient Egyp-
tians will be followed. Massive, imperisha-
BILE granite, of light shade Of gray. with an
interior lining of the finest italian marble,
will be employed. The item of expense has
not been considered, the designers being
given carte blanche as to cost, and directed
to secure the best of material and workman
ship to be had. The total outlay necessary
to complete the tomb and prepare the sur
roundings will reach 100000 and may con-
siderably exceed that amount. The item of
transportation alone will be large one, as
the granite will all be shipped from Vermont
and the marble from Italy. The site selected
is a beautiful four-acre lot in the Senator's
grounds, Just outside of San Francisco. 1t
already contains handsome shrubbery, and
occupies an altitude commanding magnif-
cent view of the bay. A driveway sixty feet
wide will be made, circling round a slight
elevation, on the brow OF which will be the
tomb. The art of the landscape gardener
will be employed to beautify the approaches,
and render even more effective the vistas of
the park.
Tie structure will be in the form of tenn
pie, and will be twenty-five feet square.
There will be double row of massive.gran-
lite columns supporting the roof of the portico
at the front. On each side of the entrance
will be a majestic sphinx carved from sim
gle block Of granite. Heavy bronze gates
close the entrance, and within are solid
doors of polished granite. The roof and
sides are also of granite and are to be built
in the most substantial manner. The stone
employed is the Barre granite, from Barre,
VT II has slight blush gray tint which
shows delicate carving to advantage and re-
tains its color without change. Each block
was cut therequisite shape at the quarry
and marked to designate its position. They
were then boxed to prevent injury and
and shipped to San Francisco. All Of the
main portions of the structure have been
sent on. and the excavations for the tomb
has been commenced. The interior of the
mausoleum will be done in white marble
The ceiling will be single arch of marble
with 4 snan of twenty-five feet. There will
be M crypts or vaults, and provision will be
made for the remains of only three persons
those Of the senator and Mrs. Stanford and
the son. These will occupy sarcophagi
placed on the three sides of the chamber.
TIE sarcophagi are being made in Italy.
Each one will be hswn from single block
Of the pnrest white marble. The lid will be
made Of a separate piece. and the exterior
ornamented with the most exquisite carving.

The great strike of the engineers and
hremen of the Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy railroad system, backed by the
brotherhood of locomotive engineers
and by the brotherhood of locomotive
iiremen, began about o'clock Monday
morning. The strikers demand uniform
wages and the adjustment of the
classification" system, by which engi-
neers and firemen do not receive full
wages until they have worked three
years. About 2,4OO engineers and fire
men have struck but the total number
of workers thrown idle is nearly 5000.
The possible action of the Knights of
Labor is an important consideration in
the future Of the strike. The brother
hood refused to assist the knights in the
great southwestern strike of a few
years ago, and brotherhood engineers
are filling the places Of striking Knights
of Labor engineers in the Philadelphia
Il Reading strike. The situation now
may invite retaliation, in which case
tronble between the orders is possible.
The Burlington has 5000 miles of main
and leased lines in Illinois, Iowa, Mis-
souri, and Nebraska. Its lines reach
from Chicago to Denver and Cheyenne,
I 900 miles each, to Minneapolis and
st. Louis.

Mr.. Cas0n, a representative OF Brad
streets commercial agency, last week
returned to Kansas City from an ex-
tended trip through Kansas, and said
to the Kansas City Star: II have been
all over the state Of Kansas and / am
free TO say never saw prospects for a
letter year. The business community
has followed the example of the nation
al banks, which began hedging last
July. The merchants are not stocking
up so largely and are in many cases dis
counting their bills. When find man
who does this 1 usually ask permission
to examine his discount book, and it is
invariably granted. In this manner l
have learned that business men are
much more conservative, and the cry of
hard times comes from those whole
sale people who experience falling of
in their sales. Kansas always goes so
far, then stops, becomes conservative
and redeems herself. If Illinois had
gone through the same crisis as Kansas
there would be noting left of it. am
sure the state is from twenty-five to
thirty per cent better off than the grum-
blers would have us believe. How abb
surd it is, ii you want to know some
thing of Kansas, to go to credit man
in some jobbing house and find out.
lie has never been over the ground, and
has only his trade as basis to speak
from. His house may be successful or
it may not, but because it has not done
a great business equal to past years is
that any positive evidence of hard
timesP And even if a business man
with poor methods and worse ideas has
failed utterly in that state, is that say
ing that numbers are not succeedingY
Why, when times are at their best there
are merchants who are at low ebb.
That occurs in the most prosperous
communities"

THE KANSAS BOOM.

manager of the Missouri Pacific. said.
Our agents all over the entire east

never had as many Inquiries as at pres

statistics and information about those

any other way"

President Cleveland: 1.-The necessity

reduction of taxation
