PARIS, June 26.-The funeral train
bearing tho remains of the murdered
president of the republic arrived here at
$40 a. M, Tuesday. The project of the
Seine, NJ. Poubelle, and his st; If; the
project Of police, NJ. Loze, and his staff;
the railroad officials and General Saus-
sier, the military governor of Paris,
with his staff, met the body at the sta.
ton, which was heavily draped.
The ceremonies at the railroad ter
minus, however, We're private, and con-
sisted only in the formal transfer of the
remains to the project of the Seine.
The casket was placed in a hearse in
the presence of the officials mentioned
and the officers of the late presidents
military household, headed by General
Borius, chief of the military household,
Captain Jaureguiberry and Colonel
ChaInoin, and esec.ted TO the Elysee
palace, followed by five carriages, in
Guiding landau which was occupied by
Mime. Carnot AMI her three sons.
In spite of the early hour and the fact
that the remains of the late presi-
dent We're to arrive here was not gen.
orally known, several thousand people
had gathered arou:id the railroad sta
ton. Every person present stood with
uncovered heads until the funeral
cortege passed on IFS way 70 the palace.
The cOrtege having entered the EIysee
grounds, the gates We're closed.
at the palace the body was received
by the officers of the late presidents
civil household and conveyed to one of
the reception rooms which had previ-
ously been converted into a mortuary
chapel hung with black cloth and hav-
ing a catafalque III its center upon
which in silver letters was the initial
&C" over the letters ''R. f" (Repub-
ique Francaise).
The widow was so overcome with
emotion when the casket was placed in
the mortua1y chapel, that she was COM
PEELED to retire to Il private room, where
her sons did the utmost to console her.
The .binent were absent from the re-
cepton of the remains at the railroad
station, nor were they present when the
body arrived at 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 be-
ieved that this was due to the fact that
the early morning transfer of the re-
mains from the depot to the Elysee was
an entirely formal ceremony.
1t Is now said to be established that
Santo lived for some time in the Rue
Trayersiere, this city, occupying room
in the house of an Italian wine dealer
The assaSsin's name was registered at
the Labor Exchange.
The feeling against Italians in par
hcular and foreigners in general aroused
by the assassination of the president, has
caused several factories in the suburbs
of this city to discharge all the foreign
ers in their employ, and it is expected
that the same course will be adopted by
other factories.
1t is hoped, however, that when the
sympathetic action of the King of Italy,
the italian chambers and Premier Crispi
become more generally known through
France, great deal of this feeling
against Italy will be softened.
Several members of the chamber of
deputies have asked Premier Dupuy if
he is a candidate for the presidency, and
he has replied that his candidature has
been too freely mentioned for months
past for him not to come forward during
the present critical stage in the affairs
of France.
He felt encouraged, he said, by the
thought that this juncture required
more devotedness than ambition to seek
an honor which was fraught with such
weighty responsibilities.
