II Will Take Place on sunday, Janu-

timore-D.stinguis Persons to
BE Present.


BALTIMORE. MD. December g.
What will doubtless be one of the most
imposing church ceremonies ever seen in
the United States will take place at the
Cathedral on Sunday. January 9Th, upon
the occasion of the elevation 10 the Car
dinaIate of Mgr. Francis Satolli. Papal
legate In America.
The Marquis Sacripanti, OF the Noble
Guard, bearing the suchetto to the
future Cardinal. was delayed in MS
departure from Rome until yesterday and
Il Is not to arrive here until December
18th The date of Mgr. Satollis eleva-
ton was therefore postponed. and the
first Sunday in the New Year selected In
stead.
At the ceremony the United States Gov
ernment will be represented by mem
ber Of the Presidents Cabinet; the
State by Governor Frank Brown, and
the city by Mayor Alceus Hooper, to each
of whom special invitations have been
extended.
The visiting prelates. 1t is thought. will
include a representative from nearly
every see in the united states, anu,
posslbly. some dignitaries from Canada
and Mexico.
ECCLESIASTICAL PROCESSION.
The ecclesiastical procession, which will
precede the ceremony. should the weather
be fine. will be the most imposing seen
I'm Baltimore since that attending the
elevation of Cardinal Gibbons to his
present dignity in June, 1856. 1t will in
clude in addition to representatives from
Catholic societies from Washington and
this city,. students and professors from
the Catholic University at Washington,
seminarians from st. Mary's, and num-
bers of the clergy from this and other
archdiocese in the United States, who
will attend upon Mgr. SatollPs invita-
tion.
The procession will be joined by the
visiting preates as 1t passes the Archi-
episcopal residence on the way to the
Cathedral
The grandeur of the spectacle will in
crease from the entrance of the pro-
cession Of prelates and clergy by the east
door of the Cathedral. through the pro-
ceedings incident to comforting the ber-
retta and the return of the newly-in-
vested Cardinal in his scarlet robes,
which will be followed by the celebration
of pontifical high mass, until it reaches
its climax I'm the bestowal of the Papal
benediction upon the entire assemblage
kneelng, which will be pronounced by
Cardinal Satolli, standing In front of the
high altar.

SHORTAGE At THE GAs-WORKs.
City Said to Have Lost $4,000 from
Tar Contracts Alone.

Just what the city OF Richmond has lost
by the loose management of the affairs of
the gas-works for ten years prior to the
beginning Of the administration Of Super
intendent Knowles will probably never be
known. In fact. IL appears that there IL
no possibility OF all the facts ever coming
TO light
Colonel. w. p. Smith, the accountant
appointed by the special committee of in
vestieation to make an examination Of
the books. has concluded his work as far
as II was possible for him TO do So and
has submitted his report, which was print
ed In yesterdays Dispatch His nvcstiga-
ton, however, was greatly impeded by
the terribly mutilated condition in when
he'found the books. Some Of them are said
70 nave mad many pages wholly torn out,
besides being otherwise defaced and mutt
lated.
1t is claimed that the loss has probably
reached 100000 or more, including de-
structiveness 10 the plant. loose manage
ment superfiuous operatives. &c. Colonel
Smith, during the course o. his examina-
tion, made up a statement as TO what
loss the city must have suffered by the
tar contracts at Co cents "A barrel. as
compared to an average price of tar else
where during these years which state
ment showed the city to have suffered
$4,000 to so 900 loss.
While Colonel Smith has concluded his
labors. the Superintendent Is making
thorough inquiry into the disposition made
Of the -mmoniacal liquor, and he may have
the special committees attention directed
TO this matter.
Chairman Gunst, of this committee. has
not decided when he will call the body
together for the purpose of formulating
a report to the Council and as yet the
nature of this report has not been dis
cussed by the members. 1t will very
probably be prepared by or with the as
sistance OF City-Attorney Meredith, and
will be quite interesting.

MOZART AND HIS OPERAS.
Mr. surette Delivers an Interesting
Lecture mt Association Hall.

Mr. Thomas Whitney Surette delivered
the fourth of his series of lectures on the
development of Music" before large
audience at the Association Hall last
night The subject of the lecture was,
Mozart and His operas" In sketching
the principal events in the lie OF Mozart
the lecturer characterized him as per
who has ever lived. coming into the
world with the keenest perceptions of
musical things, and with the endow-
ment of a genius, which-as far as
never been equalled His great contribu-
tion to the advancement OF the art, aside
from this. was in the redemption of the
opera from the sway of the Italian style,
and In the advancement OF the form Of
the sonata and symphony over what
Haydn had brought II TO.
The lecturer drew picture of the
times i'm which Mozart lived, ana of
his own family lie.
In general criticism OF Mozarts music,
the lecturer said its chief characteristics
were its perfect form and lis perfect
melody. 1T is like a Greek statue In
the perfection of its outline, said lie.
'If any ore deserves the title OF ciassicist
IL is Mozart. He does not give us human
passion, as Beethoven does, but Ike the
ralm face of Greek god. expresses the
nosu perfect serenity or soul.
Mr. Surette then went 10 The PIANO.
and played the themes OF one OF the
sonatas. showing how il was varied ano
develoDcd He carried out the same
nlan which he had begun In the last
lecture. and the composition. when he
came to play II had been so treated
that il was very ineligible 10 the au-
dience All the different numbers on the
nrogramme were analyzed In this way.
and the point OF each one was brought
out thereby adding to. the enjoyment
and appreciation OF each. Mr.. Surette
was assisted in the illustrations by Mrs.
III. T. Meloney. who sang the song. The
Violet i" and an aria from THE Marriage
OF Figaro" by Mrs. II. T. Meloney who
sang the song Hope" and another aria
from the same opera. and by Miss Zelle
Minor who, with Mr.. Surette. played an
arrangement of the first movement OF the
q minor symphony for plano. Mr..
Surette's selections were from the plano
forte sonataS.

CAUSES SENSATION.
The fact that Said Pasha has sought
refuge in the British embassy has caused
a great sensation in all circles. and Is
general topic of conversation. IL Is inn
possible to foresee the outcome. but the
fact OF a native statesman of the highest
rank seeking an asylum in "A foreign en-
