His Eternal Rest.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 9.-General William
Mahone-the Hero of the Crater" at
Petersburg, Va, during the war; the man
who closed up the Confederate lines when
shattered by the explosion of the mine
and made of no avail the work OF months
of the Union forces-died at o'clock yes
terday afternoon from the attack OF
paralysis he suffered Oct. g. He never
rallied from the stroke, and from the first
his physicians considered his case hopeless.
The end came peacefully and almost i'm
perceptibly. The dying man had lain I'M
conscious ever since last Sunday morn
Ing, taking no nourishment and showing
no sign of life beyond faint respiration.
All the members of the family were
about the bedside when the end came, in
GLIDING Mrs. Malone, the two sons-But-
Ter and William Malone, Jr.-Mrs. Nc
Gill, n daughter; ID. L. Maury, of Vir-
ginia, a nephew and Captain Rogers, an
old friend of the general and present chair
man of the Virginia Republican commit
tee. There was no public funeral at Wash
ington. In accordance with the wishes of
the widow the remains were borne quietly
to the generals old home at Petersburg,
Va, where the service and interment took
place today
The departure from here was made at
4:30 o'clock this morning, arriving at
Petersburg at 10:30 o'clock The services
were held at St. Paul's Episcopal church.
The active pall-bearers were members OF
General Mahone's old command, famous
as "Mahone's brigade" the one which
held the "crater." The honorary pail
bearers were selected from officers of the
same brigade. The Confederate Veterans
Union rendered it's service as a military
escort to the body but it was the .family's
wish to avoid any display.
General Malone had passed the most OF
his time in recent years in this city, living
at Chamberlain's where he frequently
consulted with the Republican leaders
from his native state. He was formerly
quite wealthy, but it is understood that he
lost the larger part Of his money and
probably left but a small estate.

freSiuiHS BISHOP.
MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. D. - The house OF
bishops of the Episcopal convention
adopted the word ''primate" as the title of
the presiding bishop, and gave resigned
bishops the right to vote. In the deputies
the term 'bishop-coadjuter was formally
agreed to in place OF assistant bishop"
A warm debate again took place on the
question of what to call the presiding
bishop. Those opposed to change wanted
simplicity and American names, and par
ticularly did not want names which might
indicate that the church had taken a step
towards n hierarchy.
The other side was we'll represented and
the interest in the final vote was intense
The Thomas amendment was lost, receiv-
ing 1872 votes while the opposition mus
tered 1852 votes. The word 'primate" may
be the object of another attack, but it
looks as if it would finally be adopted.
The deputies concurred with the house of
bishops relative to the rights in the con-
vention of resigned bishops. The commit

ported in favor of Boston, Mass.
