day and to-day thousands of people visited
the bodies OF the men who were shot at
Morewood. They ,ay in the carriage house
Of Zimmerman s undertaking establishment.
They were stretched outside on a long plat
form, around which the crowd surged

men was dressed in robe of brown
material with white collar, neckties and
shirt front showing under the chin. They
are all young men, and with the exception
of Cressango, Binero, Italians, and Valen-
tione Zindle, they will be buried at Scott
dale tomorrow by the county in the Cath
Ole cemetery at that place. The faces of
the dead We're cleanly shaver, and on the
breast of each was placed the
symbol of the Roman Catholic church,
while around the wrists of a few were en-
twined beads, upon which they had been
accustomed to repeat their prayers. From
Yesterday morning until 10 to-day an IN
broken line of foreigners, about one in ten
of whom could speak the English laas6ag'sss-
filed around the bier upon whicHTthe dead
lay. Sobs and groans were heard on everYs
side and crowds collected aboutthe clothing
which the victims had last worn, and judg-
ing from their actions, they will
prove vipers to men who did the
shooting. 1t is well known among the citi-
zens that the lives of Capt. Loar and his.
deputies will be in jeopardy should tAA
militia be Withdrawn. The foreigners are
excited to q degree bordering on frenzy and,
although they are keeping all demonstra-
tions within the pale of the law, there is no
doubt but that they are determined to
wreak vengeance eventually on the people
who are responsible for the deaths Of their

Jay and wanamaker Consult.

WASHINGTON, April Jay Gould of New
York and his son George had long con-
ference with Postmaster-General Wanna
maker at the postofice department to-day.
The question Of the Pacific Mail steamship
line, Of which George Gould is president, in
connection with the new postal subsidy
act was discussed. The telegraph tolls,
however, was the principal theme of the
talk. Next June will be two years since
Wanamaker fixed the schedule of rates
which the government should pay the
Western Union for telegraphic service. The
Western Union refused 10 accept these
rates. but continued to perform the service.
The consequence is that the government
has paid nothing for its use Of the tele-
graph since that time. and the amount now
due the company has reached large proper
tions. Gould talked the matter over with
Wanamaker, but no definite conclusion was
reached. Jay Gould and his son subse-
quently called upon the president, Secre-
tary Foster and Secretary Tracy and spent
a short time in the company of each.

WARllKE.
Canadas New Communicating Chief Making
sn Unusal Drill--Large Guns Being
Sent to Halifax.

OTTAWA, ONT, April 1.-Two important
announcements confirm as true the rumor
that General Herbert, the new commander
in-chief of the Canada militia, brought in
structions from the English war office to
speedily strengthen the defenses of Canada
and prepare for the necessity OF putting q
large force in the field.
First, is his request to the government to
double the usual average this year for drill
so that the entire force of 5000 men can be
thoroughly drilled in June. Never before
has the number of men drilled exceeded
10000 men.
Second-Gen. Herbert left to-day for
Halifax to confer with Gen. Sir John
Ross, commander of the imperial troops
in Canada, respect to the de-
lenses of the Atlantic coast, and particu-
larly at Halifax, where the new fort has
been constructed. One thirty-two ton gun
has recently arrived at Halifax from
England and others are almost ready to be
shipped. These are the largest guns on
this side Of the Atlantic.

Why Gould Is Comm. West.

ST. Louis, Mo, April 4-In connection
with Jay Gould's visit to the West this at
ternoon paper has the following: THE
object of Gould's visit 10 St. Louis at the
present time is in furtherance of the pro-
posed great South. Southwestern and
Southern combination of railroads, includ-
ing roads known as the Gould system, the
Texas lines owned and controlled by C. P.
Huntington. or rather what is known as
the Huntington syndicate, the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa F'e and on the east side
of the Mississippi the Richmond and Dan
Vile and perhaps others. The proposed
scheme is the formation of company with
sufficient capital to cover reasonable
capitalization of the whole, amounting to
some forty thousand miles of railroad ex-
tending across the continent with their
main stems running through the South and
Southwest and many feeders reaching out
in every direction through vast territory
made tributary TO the main lines. The
plan is now well advanced in the prepare
tory stage and has been Endorsed by Gould.
He is anxious to be posted on every detail,
and Is now coming out for final look over
the ground. Upon his return 70 New York

PAYMENT OF co MMIss1oSs.


The Lines Decide to Resume them at
Once,
CHICAGO. III. April Another brief
session of the general traffic managers OF
those roads that have needed the request
of the Eastern lines to cease paying passen-
ger commissions in their territory, was
held to-day at the Offices Of the Chicago,
Milwaukee and St Paul. 1t is whispered
about this evening that the interested lines
agreed ~ their conference to-day to resume
the payment of commissions in trunk line
territory and to pay up the commissions
due for February and March. The
reason given for this alleged action is that
the board of rulings has failed TO carry out
it's policy Of diyerting business from the
Burlington and Wisconsin Central, the
two roads accused Of disregarding its orig
inal injunction, and thereby leaves the
other Western roads without the slightest
protection against the competition Of those
two lines. Besides it is reported on what
seems to be pretty good authority, that
the Union Pacific, which ordered the pay
ment OF commissions to stop February /, has
countermanded that order and given in
structions TO all its Eastern agents to pay
the same commissions as formerly.

Enneral of the Victims.

SCoTTDALE, Pa, April 4.-The special
funeral train bearing the bodies of seven OF
the victims of the Morewood shooting left
Mount Pleasant at 2:32 and arrived
here at 800. The train was composed OF
six coaches ana was packed full. Standing
room was at 4 premium on the platform.
The bodies will be taken off the train AZ
the depot and placed in large road wago96.
The funeral cortege did not move until he
regular train arrived at 3:37. The
large public square was not spacious
enough to hold the great crowds of
people and the delegations that arrived on
the regular train had to form on Pittsburg
street and Broadway. The foreign ele:
ment did not take kindly to the road
wagons used Us hearses to bear the re
mains of their countrymen to their last
resting place, and the collins
were taken out and six of them
were carried to the cemetery, distance
of one mile. The seventh was
placed i'll hearse. The procession moved
at 4 O'Clock headed by the Standard
Miners cornet and the Scottdale bands,
both of which played the dead march the
entire distance. There were fully 5000
people at the depot, but scarcely half this
number went to the cemetery, and large
majority of those who followed the remains
were Poles, Slavs and Hungarians.
AMERICAN FLAGS
were conspicuous, and a number OF delega-
tons carried banners. The workmen nearly
all wore badges and crepe, and when the
collins were lowered into the large trench,
which was twelve feet long and seven feet
wide, number Of workmen threw their
badges and crepe on the collins. Father
Lamberg and Father Schmeigle conducted
the funeral services according to the rites
of the Catholic church, which were simple
but impressive. After the services Rev.
Schmeigle delivered an address in the
Polish language, in which he coun-
seled his countrymen to return peace
fully to their homes, TO commit
no breach of the law and to abstain from
int0Xicants and shun the saloons. Rev
Lamberg made brief address in Eng
fish to the same effect. Though the
town was overcrowded with all classes
and conditions of people, there was not
the least disturbance and everything passed
off in q manner creditable to the workmen.
After the funeral great mass meeting
was held at Everson, across in Fayette
county. The speeches We're conservative in
tone, but the men were encouraged to re-

Katie Putnam.

The next attraction at Greenwall's opera
house will be Katie Putnam in her new
play, Love Finds q Way, on Thursday,
April 9, matinee and night. What the St.
Paul Globe says:
The opera house was packed last night
with an enthusiastic audience, which had
been drawn TO see Love Finds Way"
acted b. the popular little favorite, Katie
Putnam. The piece is very interesting,
full of fun, and with a plot so constructed
as to afford very strong situations.
AS Gay Howard, in Love Finds Way"
Miss Putnam outdone all her former eff
forts in this city and kept the audience
alternately in tears and laughter during the
entire evening. The singing and dancing
Specialties she introduced were new and
most acceptable.
The supporting company is stronger this
season than last, and ii may well be doubted
# any soubrette on the road is better sur
rounded than is Miss Putnam this season.
