The Remains OF Dr. Cronin Interred in.
Calvary Cemetery, Chicago.
CHICAGO, May 5.--All that is mortal Of
pr Patrick Henry Cronin, who year ago.
Saturday night was lured to the den OF
death now known 70 history as the Carlson
cottage, was laid to rest Sunday afternoon
IN grave on the cold and deeolate beach
front Of Calvary cemetery. Over 900 men
and women who had known the deceased
in life braved the bleak wind and pelting
rain 20 witness the final obseqnies The
Sheridan guards acted as guard Of honor,
and the Illinois Drum corps, with mufiled
drums; the Ancient Order Of Hibernians,
in their green regalia, and the Catholic
Foresters turned out to large number
When the oasket had been placed on the
edge of the grave the brief offices for th8
interment Of the dead was read by Father
MuldOOn, chancellor of the diocese, and
after IL had been sprinkled with holy water
il was lowered into the tomb.
Then the members of the ladies' COM
mittee began 70 strew flowers upon the
coffin lid, and before the two wagon loads
which they had brought with them had
been exhausted the grave was filled TO the
brim. The drum corps beat a tattoo as the.
heavy stone was rolled over the tomb,
sealed and cemented the Office for com
initial was read by the priest, and the cere-
mony was at an end. II is intended to
erect monument over the grave at a cost
Of not less than 5000, and 40 TO beautify
the surroundings until the present dreary
waste is converted into q garden.

Austin (Tex.) special says; The Farmers
alliance of Texas is in trouble, and sen.
sational developments are rumored. In
1887 the leaders organized at Dallas an
exchange, with capital Of $500 900, the
stock being taken by the subordinate
lodges. The exchange lasted about two
years, during which time, it is alleged,
nearly S25000 was squandered, and there
is nothing to show for ii but about $4,000
worth Of property. Farmers who contribu-
ted the money are anxious to have an in

here. The sl legislature is in session,
and although has adopted a joint resolu-

sition will az oese be submitted TO rescind

Five years Of the term remain, so that the
prize is almost OF full proportions. There
are four men IN the state whose names are
at once suggested for the vacancy. They
are John q. Carlisle, OF Covington; w. g.
Z. Breckenridge Of Lexington; John Young
Brown, Of Henderson, and James A. Nc

other business.
WASHINGTON, May 5-The great tariff
debate opens in the house this week. It is
to begin Tuesday If nothing occurs to in,
terfere, and it will extend through the week
at least No limit has been set upon the
general debate yet The Republicans talk
about setting ii at one week aud the Demo
Gratis ask two weeks. An effort is beins
made TO bring about a compromise on ten
days. The matter now rests in the hands
OF the committee on rules and a resolution
will doubtless be reported from that com.
mittee at an early day. The only other i'm.
portant business to be considered ia ths
house is the business which may come up
under suspension of the rules today. The
Republicans are anxious to call np tho
river and harbor bill, and they claim that
they have pledged the two-thirds vote
necessary TO take il up but the speaker has
not said that he will recognize member
OF the committee TO make the motion ia
take up the bill, and SO its fate is still
problem.
What other business may be called up
under suspension is matter Of speeula.
tion and Of no certainty On Saturday
afternoon the house will listen to eulogies
on the late Representative Wilbar of New
York.
The senate business is pretty we'll mapped
out for the week, although several impor.
tant changes in the programme may take
place The bill for the admission %
Wyoming 70 the Union Is down for con.
sideration today, aud the Jones silver bib
| for Wednesday. II the Jones bill should
be taken up as per programme (the Wyoin.
ing bill not having been disposed Of
the latter will likely be taken up in the
morning hour each day while the Jones bill
Is considered after 2 o'clock. The con.
sideration Of the Jones bin may be post.
| poned If there seems any probability that
| the Republican caucus can come TO an
agreement, but as matters now stand the
senate will 20 into the silver debate with
out any caucus action binding the Repub-
| liean members. And If this condition re-
mains unchanged it is altogether likely
that the senate will pass a measure which
will be in substance a free coinage bill or
rather bill for the free purchase Of bull-
ion. One day during the week will be
| given over TO the funeral of the late Senar
tor Beck.

FURIOUS STORM IN THE EAST.
IL SHOWS and Blows All Along the At
lantic Coast.

PIrTsBURG, Dec. H.-This city. being
almost the storm center, has suffered
most severely. The monetary damage is
very great. All branches Of trade, espec-
tally railroads and street car lines, have
been practically suspended, paralyzing
business and causing a total stoppage Of
operations in oil on the stock exchange.
Through the breaking of the electric
light wires, three horses have been
killed. Two drivers were knocked
unconscious and street car, filed with
frightened passengers, was set ablaze IN
a moment. Police switch boards and tele-
phones had been burned out and as a result
the outlying police districts are isolated.
Million of tons Of coal are lying In the
backwater from the dam, and should a
rapid thaw ensue, there would be great
damage along the rivers. Reports from
the country districts show even greater
damage owing TO lack Of facilities for
transportation.
At Bedford, Pa, two feet OF snow is re-
ported with a complete blockade of the
lumber business along the Blue and
Laurel Ridge mountains, West Virginia.
The situation is growing worse. A sud-
den food is the greatest calamity now
feared. AT IL o'clock tonight the snow is
still falling aud has nearly reached the
two-foot line. few roofs have been
crushed in by the weight OF the snow.
NEW YORK, Dec. H.-Numerous acci-
dents in the way Of falling signs, ETC., de-
tached 10y wind, have been reported, hut
none of serious character. A heavy
storm is prevailing along the New Jersey
coast. At Atlantic City the tide was the
highest OF the season. At Ashbury
Park and at Long Branch great
damage was done. Heavy snow
storms are reported all along the coast.
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 1.-THE north
east storm last night and to-day was the
seyerest experienced in this locality since
the memorable blow OF September, 1889.
Telegraph wires are prostrated in all di-
rections and only mesgre reports are oh.
tanned. In this city many houses were
unrcofed aud other damages inflicted.
Reports from Cape May and other places
on the New Jersey coast report great
damage to railroads by washouis.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Dec. l7.--Snow mas
been falling in this section since yester-
day. The Norfolk & Western road is
buried In from one 10 three feet Of snow.
In Southwest Virginia the snow is drifted
badly.

Harrison studying the Point.

CHICAGO, Dec. IA telegram was re.
ceiyed at the worlds fair headquarters
to-day from Director Peck. saying that
President Harrison had decided that he
could not now waive the point that the
city council might repeal or deny proyid.
ing an issue Of S, 10000 bonds In the aid.
of the fair before issuing his proclama-
ton and that several days would be re-
quired for personal examination OF the
point. However, he would accept proof
that the money was in hand II the bonds
were actually issued and placed in the
hands Of the city corporation. The city
comptroller prepared the former bonds,
which were approved by the directors.
The work Of engraving will be COM
menced at once, and it is believed that
the requirement Of the president will be
complied with by the first of January.

BANKS THAT HAVE A SOFT SNAP
The House Furnished List of Those That
Receive Public Moneys.

WASHINGTON, Dec. lin response TO
a resolution by the house, Acting Secre-
tary Nettleton has sent that body a list
showing the several banks in which pub
lie money is deposited, the purpose for
which deposited, etc. Ii shows that there
are 202 OF these banks, ls7 Of which are
marked general and Is marked "sur-
plus" Banks marked general" have
active accounts, receiving or disbursipg
public money daily, and were desig-
mated as depositaries for the con-
venience of public officers in
their vicinity. These marked "surplus"
have inactive accounts. They simply
received on deposit TO the credit Of the
treasurer of the United States when first
designated. The amount they were al
lowed 10 hold was in proportion 10 the
amount Of United States bonds fur
nished as security therefor. Ever since
there has been no change in such ac-
counts except for the purpose Of reduc-
ing the holdings Of said repositories by
transfer 10 the sub-treasury. No interest
has been or is now paid into the treasury
by any Of such repositories in return for
the use Of public funds. The authority
to designate banks as repositories is con-
tanned in section 5l53 of the revised
statutes.
