In a Rough Pine Box the Economic
Leader Was Laid Away.


The remains of Father Heinrich were inferred
in the Harmonists' cemetery at Economy, Pa
yesterday afternoon. The body lay in a coffin
made of rough pine boards painted black
There were no handles to it, nothing by which
it might be carried, and the silver plate upon
which the name and age of the dead are usually
inscribed was missing The body was clothed
in a plain white sheet wrapped round and
round until it formed perfect shroud. No
pail bearers had been selected, and the six men
nearest the corpse picked it up and carried it
to the grave. The people formed in procession
and followed the dead through the street to
the cemetery.
The Economics are buried side by side in
one long row, with no headstone number or,
in fact anything to tell where they lie. No dis
tlnction was made in the case of Father Hem
rici. As his coaborers were laid away SO was
he. 1t was his request.
Mr.. Duss said few words at the grave, the
male choir sang hymn, handful Of dirt was
thrown on the coffin, and the mourners re-
turned to their homes. There were many
prominent visitors from Pittsburg, Beaver
Falls and Rochester among the assembage.
Simon Beuterand Mr.. Storm. two members of the
Zoarite Society, a communistic group of Zoari.
Ohio, were present, having been sent on to rep
resent that organization.
If DR.. iced or any of his followers were pres
ent they did not make themselves known Mr.
Duss says he is now in full charge and will
probably call a meeting in few days to elect
junior trustee.

CANADIAN DISCRIMINATION.
The President Calls for Information on the
Subject.

me fres1dent SaIis Tor Information on the
Subject.
The President has called upon the executive
departments for all information in their posses
sion relative to freight coming into the United
States over the Canadian Pacific railroad. The
unjust discrimination against United States
railroads in favor Of the Canadian Pacific rail-
road by means OF the consular seal system has
long been a source of complaint at the Treasury
Department. Gradually the business has 0own
and the law has been perverted. and now more
goods having their origin in China and Japan
are shipped over the Canadian Pacific for
the United States than goods or products Of
Canada
The Canadian Pacific has caused to be put
into the Canadian tariff discriminating duty
Of 10 per cent on all coffee and tea imported
into Canada from the United States. From all
other countries except the United States coffee
and tea can come into Canada free. The effect
of this has been to divert traffic from American
ports in favor Of that road
These evidences Of unfriendliness are regarded
at the Treasury Department as justifying some
drastic measure. 1t is pointed out that as the
traffic over the Canadian Pacific has become SO
great that it is impossible for United States
consuls TO personally perform the duties re-
quired of them under the provisions OF the con-
sular seal law, due regard for the revenue
would warrant the suspension of section 3, 1902
until such time a. Congress makes provision for
its perfect enforcement.
Should this be done, Treasury Department
officials believe it would put stop to discrim-
inatiou against American railroads, and also be
a retaliatory measure against Canada for her
unfriendliAess of conduct toward us.

A Low DEATH RATE.

The Health of the District is in Good Con-
dition.
In the report of Health Officer Hammett con-
corning the health of the city last week that
official says:
During the whole of this month the health
Of the city has been good and consequently the
death rate has been below the normal. The re-
turns of mortality last week show an average of
fourteen deaths day, while the general aver
age per annum is nigh seventeen day. One
hundred deaths were reported. Nearly one
third of these were children under five years Of
age and twenty three were Of persons over sixty
years old. There does not appear to be any
prominent class of ailments. Notwithstanding
the very cold weather there was q marked i'm
provement in the fatal list of acute lung dis
eases and pulmonary maladies. Consumption
claimed nine victims, while pneumonia caused
bu. three deaths.
1.-The scarlet fever or scarlet rash which is
now prevalent to a limited extent in different
sections of the city is of a very mild type. 1t
has existed in the same form to a greater or
less degree since last winter No death there
from has been reported to the health officer for
a number Of months. In all respects the favor
able condition of the public health throughout
the city is a cause Of sincere congratulation.
For the month Of November last the total
deaths numbered Az. as against 449 In the same
time year ago. thus showing a gain of per
cent in the face of rapid and continuous in
crease in the population. The returns for this
month thus far indicate still further decline
in the death rate.

A Growing Church.

The congregation OF the Calvary Baptist
Church. sth and II streets, have under consid-
Grafton plans for securing better facilities for
their church work than the present edifice
affords. While nothing definite has as yet
been determined it is probable that a
building will be erected ON ground Immediately
adjoining the church building on the south
for the use of the Sunday school, which is
one Of the largest in the country. An OPP
ton has been secured on ground having a
frontage of sixty feet for the site
of the proposed building. New galleries will
be put in the church auditorium and other i'm
provements made. In addition it is the desire
to build chapel in South Washington.
To carry cut this entire scheme it will re-
quire about $40 900. and subscriptions will be
invited from members of the congregation.
One member has generously offered to dupl-
cate any subscription which the entire con-
gregation may make.

"MAC', WAS TOO OBSTINATE.
He Insisted on Burge Posting $4,000 For
felt and Now the Fights on.


There will be no fight between Jack Nc
Auliffe and Dick Burge for the lightweight
championship Of the world. as contemplated
Judge Newton Of the Coney Island Athletic
Club, who offered the extraordinary purse Of
$4,000 for the contest. last night announced
that the club would withdraw the purse and de-
clare the match off.
Referee Hardt and Judge Newton went to the
Sturtevant House early yesterday morning for
the purpose of having the pugilists settle their
differences and securing their signatures to arti-
cles of agreement. They saw both Jack Hag-
gerty and Ben Benton, who came to represent
Dick Burgess interest.
Burgess hackers stuck to their arguments OF
the previous days that McAuiffe's demand to
have both men deposit a forfeit OF $4,000 to
guarantee their appearance in the ring, and to
weigh in at the stipulated 1873 pounds the night
of the fight, WAS absurd, and refused under
any circumstances to sign with those stipula-
tons.
Newton then called upon McAuliffe and told
him that II he YRS anxious to fight he should
waive the $4,000 forfeit and agree to -, 500
forfeit. McAuliffe refused to agree to a smaller
sum than the one first proposed.
He said he had agreed to obliterate the clause
IN the articles which he signed Saturday that
they should meet at 1913 pounds. give take
two pounds and to fight at 1873 fiat. but as re-
CARDS the $40 900 McAuliffe insisted that that
must stand Judge Newton then declared ne
gotiations at end.
McAulifte was interviewed late last night in
the st. James Hotel A large party OF sporting
men were present, including Phil Dwycr. Mac
was very angry aud said: This business has
cost me over 81 1000, winch / have lost in not
appearing with my theatrical company and eX-
penses. Now, to show you that mean bust
ness, will fight Burge for anything. and he
does not need post q cent. 1 viii meet him
with two-ounce gloves and at any weight he
wishes to fight. The reason 1 stuck TO that
SIC, 900 clause was owing to the information I
got that Burge was q middle weight and wanted
to play sharp trick
McAuliffe was apparently very much put out
over the way the purse was withdrawn, and his
opinion about Newton was anything but COM
plimentary. Phil Dwyer said that he would
back McAuliffe to fight Burge for $4,000 q
side. As it is now McAuliffe will have to light
Burge if he is at all anxious, which is contrary
to the general opinion Of wellknown sports-
men, for a much smaller purse than S45, 900.
There is a strong belief that sl0, 900 will be the
largest purse that the Crescent Club will Offer
in view Of the fact that they have no opposition
to bid them up in case they want the match.

of the hospital; the other was nearly dead liv-
ing about ten to fifteen minutes. l do not say
this is willful carelessness, inhuman as
it was to bring such persons out Of

but do say it is the result of objectionable ig-
