sixteen candelabra, each of eighteen
candles. The rest of the vast editice
was dimly lighted by the rays of the
sun, which filtered through the magnifi-
cent stained glass windows. The gal
leries of the triforlum were
PACKED WITH PEOPLE
who had been able to obtain admit
tance by special order. President CASH
mir-Perier took his seat in the private
enclosure around the pulpit. Behind
him were seated the members of the
late presidents civil and military
households. The first row of chairs
was occupied by the late NJ. Sadi-Car-
not's sons, his brother and his son-in-
law. The second row was occupied by
Premier Dupuy and the other ministers.
III the other rows of seats sat the mem-
bers of the diplomatic corps and the Of
fetal delegation. The chOirs OF Notre
Dame and the Conservatoire de Mu-
siQue executed the liturgical chants
and two numbers of Gounod's 'Mors
ct Vita" NJ. Felix Faure, the
famous baritone, being the soloist.
The plaintive notes of "Dies lrae'' were
sung by the choir, and NJ. Faure's ren-
dering Of "Pie Jesu," from SaiDt-Saens
requiem mass, produced profound I'M
preston. Before pronouncing the alb
solution, the archbishop of Paris de-
livered an allocution. The cardinal
said: before this mourning, which
has afflicted every French heart without
distinction OF opinion. one recognizes
that France, in spite of moments OF for
getfulneSS and error, always regards
the chief of the state as the representa-.
tive of divine authority. The late Presi-
dent Caruot was
AN UPRIGHT MAN
in public as we'll as IN private life, and
these simple words have been repeated
by all since his death, and constitute a
greater eulogy thai long orations. May
this life, sacrificed to duty, prove a
great lesson of union to all French
hearts,"
The archbishop Of Paris concluded
with offering respectful homage to the
Carnot family and by inviting all
Christians to pray for the repose OF the
soul of the late president. The religious
ceremony in the cathedral was con-
cluded at 2 p. M, when the procession
reformed and proceeded across the
river to the Pantheon. The scenes
witues sed during the passage of the
Dame were repeated as it slowly made
It's way TO the Pantheon. There were a
number of spontaneous outOurSts OF
cheering, and especially when Presl.
dent CaSimir-Perier was recognized, but
out of respect for the dead these out
bursts of enthusiasm were speedily
hushed. The funeral car and its
escort arrived at the Pantheon
at $3.50 p. IN. amid the boom
ing of salute of 101
guns, fired by park of artillery Sta
toned in the Jardin du Luxembourg.
AT brief intervals the massed bands
played funeral marches as the process
sion was winding its way from the ca
was removed amid trumpet salute aud
the roll of muffled drums. The end of
the procession had not reached the Pan
theon before
THE FUNERAL ORATI ONS
commenced. Premier Dupuy, during
his remarks, said:
president Carnot gave his life for
his country. He died for France ami
for the republic. He was struck down
in cowardly manner and with savage
vindictiveness. The people concerned
must be reduced 10 powerleSSneSS.
Carnot fell like soldier on the field of
honor. At the moment he already
could see before him the hour OF
repose. for he had not the slight
est idea of soliciting reelection, which
he considered contrary to the
spirit of the constitution. President
Carnot had the highest conception of
the office of president of the republic.
He knew how to gain, privately and pub
icly, the sympathy and respect OF
France, and foreign lands, by their
unanimous sorrow, have manifested
their sympathy and admiration Tor the
man, the citizen and the magistrate.
and more especially for the man OF
peace, to the maintenance OF which he
devoted all his efforts. President Carnot
will be placed to rest beside his Illus
triOuS grandfather, 'L'Orsanizateur de
la victoire.' His death will enfold at
the same time the genius of war and
the genius of peace. History will say
that he wished to unite all Frenchmen
in a wise, brave, progressive and free
republic"
PRE- MIER DUPtY
then traced the life OF the late preSl-
dent, reviewed his increasing popularity
before his death, and concluded his
address by saying:
France feels the greatness of its loss.
We thank you for having prepared
union of its SONS with the common love
felt for the republic and for the father
land. We will retain your memory in
order to better serve the republic, and
lynnrl wi nf
France. The republic lays upon your
coffin flag draped with mourning.
Deign to accept this supreme homage
of gratitude and Sorrow."
NJ. Challemel-IIacour recalled the
ceremony of 1889, when the body of
Lazare Carnot was placed in the Pam
theon, and said:
1.-The grandfather and grandson to-
day are united, and before this destiny,
all obscure death in exile on one side
and the vengeance of madman on the
other, one asks himself why exert one's
self when such is the reward of the
purest devotion. France, full of life
and energy, nObly bears the scar of her
wound and imposes respect by the
manner In which she endureS this latest
outrage. The workman is struck in
the midst of his work. but the work
proceeds. France lives by the devotion
of those who have sacrificed themselves
for her,"
HIS CALMNESs EULoGIZED.
The president of the senate then pro-
ceeded to eulogize the late President
Carnot, dwelling up his calmness in
difficult situations. and concluded:
MAY such calmness sustain US in
the hour of need. Before a career so
noble, we have only to inspire ourselves
"a. 81 oh oh
life of Carnot, his love of the father
land and his indexible respect for the
law"
Nj. de Mahy, the acting president of
the chamber of deputies, in his address,
expatiated upon the foulness of the
crime which had robbed the late presi-
dent of his life, adding:
ut lies in the power of such a COW
ardly murderer to launch France into
the depths OF desolation, and to even
confound us for the moment, but such
