THIRTY YEARS UNBURlEO.
A Mother Keeps the BODY of Her Son
Until She, Too, Dies.

LOUISVILLE. Feb. "a funeral took
place at Rock Island. Tenn. yesterday
that was the talk OF tho whole country.
The dead were mother and her son. and
the son had been dead and unburisd for
thirty wears. During the civil war the
son was killed at Murfreesboro. His
mother declared that she would never
part with her boy while che lived aud
that when death claimed her also, both
should be buried in one grave. She had
an air-tight cedar casket made with
glass top into which the body was laid.
This was placed in q room assigned for

ooRMAN REPLIES TO CHANDLER.

The Democratic Party Able to Take Care
of Its Own Affairs in Its Own Way.
The senate then resumed consideration
of the railroad car coupling bill. Mr..
PETER took exception to some remarks
made yesterday by Mr.. Wolcott rejecting,
SIR. PETER thought, on the farmers and
workingmen of the country. These
classes. he said, had been tEampled upon
by the railroad corporations and were cry
ing to congress to take hold OF the subject
and TO compel respect to the public will.
He hoped tina; the bin would pass, no
matter how much it might cost the rail-
road companies. lie had no qualms of
conscience on that point. Mr.. German
took up the taunts INDUCED in
yesterday by Mr.. Chandler against
the democrats in the senate for not
supporting the pending measure, which
had been favored in the national demo-
cratic convention. The democratic party,
Mr.. German said. W as abun6antiy able

visions on minor questions, but il would

10 WneLneT or hot Tue FeDalOT from New
Hampshire was Inundated or shocked.
1t was true that both national parties IN
convention assembled in the year 1892
had adopted resolutions favoring this class
OF legislation, but the senator from New
Hampshire had not correctly quoted the
the result of tho democratic convention.
That result favored legislation on the sub
ject by the states--not bv congress-.
Mr.. German argued in conclusion that
the organization OF the railroad employees
could accomplish more in the way OF i'm
provement than all the legislation that
could be piled on the statute books. IL
congress did assume jurisdiction the con-
sequence would be that the rich railroad

The Judge silent.
Judge Gresham refused tonight to dis
cuss the dispatch from New York relative
to his acceptance OF a cabinet portfolio.
This action on the part of the eminent
jurist. when taken in conjunction with the
questions put TO him by Teporter is
equivalent to an Acknowledgement that
