The hearse was then escorted to the
Elysee Palace, followed by five car
riages, including landau, which was
occupied by the widow, Nine. Carnot,
and her three sons. In spite Of the
early hour and the fact that the time
the remains of the late President were
to arrive here was not generally known,
crowd composed of several thousand
people had gathered about the railroad
station. Every person present stood
with uncovered heads until the funeral
cortege passed on its way to the palace.
Upon arriving at the Elysec the hearse
and its accompanying carriages were
admitted into the grounds, after which

THE WIDOWS DEEP GRIEF.
The widow was so overcome with
emotion when the casket was placed in
the mortuary chapel that she was COM

her sons did their utmost to console her.
The cabinet were absent from the re-
ception of the late Presidents remains
at the railroad, nor were they present
when the body arrived at the Elysee. 1t
was also noticed that the military guard
at the palace did not present arms when
it turned out upon the arrival of the
hearse at the palace. But it is believed
that this was due to the fact that the
early morning transfer of the remains
from the depot to the Elysee was an
entirely informal ceremony.

AFRAID TO EMPLOY FOREIGNERS.
The feeling against Italians in par.
ticular and foreigners in general aroused
by the assassination of the President
has caused several factories in the sub.
urbs of this city to discharge all the
foreigners in their employ, and it is said
that their example will be followed by
an additional number of factories and
other establishments employing for.

when the sympathetic action OF the
King of Italy, the Italian Chambers and
Premier Crispi become more generally
known throughout France, that great
deal of this feeling against Italy will be
softened. There is no doubt that King
Humbert and his government have done
everything possible to show their abb
horrence of Santos crime and their re-
pudiation of Anarchists, whom they
termed "meu without country"

In regard to the political situation
there is little change this morning. Sew,

Deputies have asked Premier Dupuy if
he is candidate for the presidency, and
he has replied that his candidacy has
been too freely mentioned for month:

affairs of France. NJ. Dupuy added
that he felt encouraged by the thought
that. this juncture required more de-

honor which was fraught with such
weighty responsibilities.
