LONDON, Jan. 1S.-The arrangements
that were made for public and semi
military procession through London to
escort tho remains OF the-Duke OF Clar-
ence and 2Avondale from the Great
Eastern to the Southwestern railway
station, have been changed in conse-
quencc OF the general epidemic OF in
tluenza prevailing here. When the
order was issued by the high military
authorities preparations wcro immedi-
ately made to carry them into effect,
but representations were made to the
Prince of Wales that, owing to othe incle-
mcnt weather which gives promise OF
lasting over Wednesday, it would be
dangerous to the health OF the troops
who took art-in3t the ceremonies. 1t
was poiHtetFuutr tsHT7 7ttIgguards, who
were ordered to line to the route from
the Liverpool street station OF tho Great
Eastern railway to the station OF tho
Southwestern railway would have to
stand immovable for q long time, and
that they would thus be peculiarly
liable to become chilled through, and
otherwise endanger their health. Upon
hearing the view OF the authorities who
made no concealment Of their fears
that the exposure OF the troops would
probably result in general attack of
influenza, tho Prince of Wales immedi-
ately gave orders that tho projected
military funeral be abandoned.
The Duke OF Cambridge was upon the
point Of leaving Cannes to return to
London to attend tho funeral OF the
Duke OF Clarence and Avondale when
he received telegram from the Prince
OF Wales, requesting him not to leave,
as tho prince did not wish him to run
the risk that would 10 entailed by the
change OF climate.
It is deemed that the health OF Prince
Georgeof Wales is not sufficiently robust
to allow OF his exposing himself in any
way, and the Prince OF Wales has de-
cided that lie willnot be allowed to at
tend his brothers funeral.

tcmpts Suicide in Jail.
LAMAR, Mo-, Jan. lS.-Robert Hopler
was arrested yesterday afternoon by
City Marshal Moran for commit
ting one OF the most atrocious crimes
known in Missouri. IIepler had
been drinking during the day, and about
1 o'clock went to the house OF Mrs.
Goodly murdered that lady and her
youngest child, 4 boy about six years
old, and left for dead her daughter,
aged nine years. Mrs. Goodly's head
was crushed with heavy bottomcd
chair, one arm and her jaw broken. He
assaulted the girl with heavy iron
poker striking her, he supposed, fatal
blow and left her lying across her
mothers prostrate form. Tho little
boy came next and his head was crushed
to jelly. The only motives known for
tho commission OF the crime arc those
OF robbery and revenge, rs Hepler had
made threats against the Goodly family.
Hcpler is about thirty-four years OF
age and has wife and five children in
destitute circumstances. Hcpler at
tempted suicide in the Jail by
hanging himself with a rope
made out OF blanket. He was
discovered and cut down. Sheriff Gar

be visited upon Hepler, tonight took

Boston Republicans Proposed to nuy "Tho
Herald" Of Tint City.

BosroS, Jan. 1s.-The Erening Record
publishes the following: "somo months
ago movement was started TO buy
'Thc Herald make q Republican paper
OF 1t and have it run under tho general
direction OF syndicate Of rich as well
as public.spirited Republicans. Among
those who were active in tho matter
wcre Chairman Burlctt, Of tho state
committee, Congressman Walker. +. W.
Breed and Willard Rowland. Tho
author OF tho anonymous letter issued
by tho Republican club, attacking the
Republican papers, was also active in
the movement Promises 10 support
were given, and something like 100000
was promised, directly and indirectly.
Colonel Taylor, of THE Globe was un.
derstood to be ready to give tho plan
any help he could. Tho manager OF
The Record was asked his opinion md
throw no cold water upon 1t, except to
advise tho men who furnished the mon.
ey to be prepared for tho establishment
at once OF freo-trade paper on THE
Uerdids' line, or to purchase The Post
ana It's inrlgoration by the parties now
running Tile Herald
ut seems, however, that Colonel
Clapp opposed the purchase. Hc claim.
ed that the Journal for years had been
party paper, and that for tho Republic
cans to 90 and buy tho Herald, practi-
cally to run 1t against tho Journal, would
bo unfair and disastrous. II they had
several hundred thousand dollars that
they wished to invest in newspapers,
he could not SEQ why they should do it
to the manifest injury OF the Journal.
He gave them to understand that the
latter paper would consider it declara.
tion OF war il the Herald should be put
on Republican basis. That objection
settled it. Perhaps the fact that tho
Herald people raised their price to
100000 may have had something to
do with it. Anyway, the plan fell
through, but within a few weeks Colonel
Clapp was out Of the Journal and tho
Herald is more Democratic than over"
Beginning to-day, tho Post will be q
one-cent instead OF two-cent news
paper.

That Look Like War.
WASHINGTON, D. G., Jan. 1S.-Tho
navy department to-day is still the
scene OF great activity. Secretary Tracy
has frequent consultations with the
chief OF ordinance, the chief OF naviga-
ton and the chief OF construction, and
occasionally he calls for the chief
engineer. Other bureau chiefs fit back
and forth through his doors and these
are but the outward and visible signs OF
the real work that is going on. In the
bureaus themselves clerks are working
at their top speed with type writer's and
skimming through ledgcrs, making cal
culations and transacting q great vol
ume OF business. But in the office of
the cheat OF tho bureau OF navigation,
Commodore Ramsey, the hustle is great
est. Three or four OF his assistants
have been detailed to translate cipher
dispatches and they are kept busy put
ting messages into shape for transmits
sion and making intelligible the cable
grams that ccme in from the south.
The navy code is ono OF the most in
tricate ever devised. 1t is numerical in
character and has never yet been de-
tected. Its convenience is therefore
tolerated because OF its safety Ia consid-

ance at such time US this) and Mt pres

CATION bureau. The officers sit in a
small room enjoying the office Of the
chief with closed doors, their desks
covered by the large fiat code book for
which foreign enemy would give the
price OF 4 man-of-war. A grist OF halt
dozen cablegrams will constitute nearly
4 days work and SO all the available
force OF the bureau is put upon the task.
The greatest pressure, however, is
being brought to bear on the ordinance
bureau, which represents tho fighting
arm oil tho navy. Tho chief OF that
bureau is getting most satisfactory re-
suits from the gun making plants at the
Washington yard. The greatest activ-
ltv has prevailed for some time in tho
