REMAINS OF IsHAM G. HARRIS
Last Respects Paid to the Dead by
the People of Memphis.

MEMPHIS (Tenn-), July 1.-THE fu-
neral train bearing the remains of
Tennessee's distinguished Senator
Hon. Isham G. Harris, arrived in this
city at 7:30 O'Clock this morning. AT
Nashville the Washington party was
joined by Governor Taylor and many
State officials.
Carriages were in waiting for the
members of the funeral party and a
magnificent hearse, heavily draped in
black. received the casket holding the
remains of the dead Senator. The Con-
federate Veterans, Captain Carnes
commanding, in full uniform, acted as
an escort of honor.
Hundreds of citizens viewed the
march to the First Methodist Church
where the remains were to lie in state
throughout the morning. The casket
was placed in a large open area, where
thousands of citizens viewed the re-
mains The area had been appropri-
lately draped by the ladies Of Memphis
and the scenes within the church We're
most impressive. Many rare floral
tributes were dropped about the casket
by old friends.
The interment took place at Elm
wood Cemetery late this afternoon.

The TARIFF BILL.
CONFERREES HARD AT WORK
ON THE MEASURE.
1t May Be Some Time, Though, Be-
fore a Final Agreement
is Reached.

WASHINGTON, July 13.-The tariff
conferrees found themselves to-day APP
parentIy less certain than at any pre-
vious time as to the date when they
will reach a final agreement, though
protesting to hope that the time will
soon come They are gradually dispos-
ing of one problem after another but
still have several left upon which there
are such marked disagreements as to
Justify no predictions as to the result.
Two of the questions, which it is
stated upon good authority have been
decided recently, are those affecting
lead ore and white pine lumber. There
has been a determined fight on the part
of the conferrees to get lead ore to l
cent a pound, but Senator Jones of
Nevada, representing the lead mining
industry, has taken such firm posi-
ton against many changes from the
Senate figures that the House repre-
sentatives apparently have yielded fin
ally. The question has been left in
such shape, however, that it can be
returned to and may be reopened.
On white pine, unless the decision
which has been reached is revised, the
House schedule fixing the rate at 81
per 1000 feet viii be reported
There is, however, a most active eff
fort in the Senate to force reconsidera-
ton on this point, and this effort is be-
ing made on the Republican side Of the
chamber, even more persistently than
on the Democratic side. There is even
at this early date, talk among Republic
can Senators of the necessity for an
other caucus to determine the course
to be pursued with reference to the
conference report. There are several
Senators on that side of the chamber,
who, it is feared, viii vote against sus-
tanning a report which increases the
pine duty, and who claim that they
cannot be bound by the action of for
mer caucuses, which devoted their at
tention simply tc schedules.
There is a similar feeling in regard to
the restoration of floor mating and
burlaps to the dutiable list, the north
western Republican Senator'S being
generally interested in keeping them
free. With reference to the articles
placed on the free list by the Senate
contrary to the recommendation of the
Finance Committee, the understanding
about the Senate to-day is that a COM
promise is likely to be reported plac-
ing a very moderate duty on them.
The Democrats say, however, that no
duty likely to be agreed upon, in
Republican conference, will be small
enough for them to accept upon cotton
bagging, cotton ties, ETC.

LONDON ENGINEERS STRIKE.
Expected to Be a Long and Fierce
Struggle.

LONDON. July 13.-The strike of en-
gineers is apparently to be a long and
fierce struggle, to be settled only on the
basis of the survival of the fittest.
Both the masters and men have re-
fused all offers of arbitration, includ-
ing that of G.. T. Ritchie, President OF
the Board of Trade.
The lockout began this morning. AS
a retaliatory measure the engineers are
calling out the rest of the men, and by
tomorrow no fewer than 1000 en-
gineers will be idle
Already the yards Of several of the
large firms have been picketed. The
London firms that have joined the
lockout now number forty. Among
them are such important concerns as
the Otis Elevator Company, the West
inghouse Brake Company, Fraser &
Chalmers and the Brush Engineering
Company.

MEETING OF THE CABINET.
FOREIGN AFFAIRS WAS THE
TOPIC OF DISCUSSION.
The President Desires Speedy Ac-
tion on the Hawaiian An
nexation Treaty.

WASHINGTON. July 13.-Because
some of the details of the order We're
incomplete. Secretary Bliss was unable
to lay before the Cabinet at to-days s
meeting his proposition to revoke the
order made by President Cleveland
closing some OF the pension agencies.
There was a good deal of talk over
appointments, and as a result the send
ing of the big list of Consular nonina-
tions to the Senate was delayed, in or
der that a few names might be added.
The Currency Commission message
did not cause any discussion, because
it is now understood that the President
is settled in his determination to send
it to Congress and awaits notice from
the party leaders as to the time when
this can be done without interfering
with the programme arranged for the
disposition of the tariff bill. The Presi-
dent himself does not believe that the
sending of the message at this time
would delay action on the tariff bill in
the least, holding that the discussion in
open Senate and House could be con-
Quoted during the time the conferrees
on the tariff bill are at work in their
room. He is, however, willing to defer
in this matter TO the opinions of GER
tain Republican Congressman who take
contrary view and will not send in
the message until advised that it will
not jeopardize the tariff measure.
Foreign affairs, notably the Hawaiian
situation. are believed to have alb
sorbed the attention of the meeting to-
day, and while it is stated that there
has been no sensible change as to the
situation as to Hawaii, it is known
that the President very much desires
speedy action on the annexation treaty.

The chief attraction seemed to be the
lavish lunch spread under the trees of
The Willows" on long tables ar
ranged as hollow rectangles. There
were sandwiches by the thousand,
lemonade by the barrel fruit by the

throng played progressive lunch, many
returning periodically to have another
round of the good things Young wo-
men connected with the local societies
served the guests from tables attract

About the middle of the afternoon
the appetites had been satisfied, the
gates were thrown open and Oakland s
poor were hidden to the remains of the
feast.
Then came rowing on the lake, with
an occasional coterie in - sess1on Of
the steam launches. A landing place
had been constructed for the occasion,
but no boating party seemed disposed
to sing that favorite Endeavor song,
pull for the Shore" In fact, many
fingered until late in the afternoon,
and reluctantly left for the return trip
across the bay.

Der Of visitors, as the young people
came and went in small armies. 1t is
safe to say, however, that fully 10000
visiting Endeavorers were entertain
ed in Oakland to-day. besides members
of the local societies. All the street
car companies made special schedules
for the accommodation of the guests,
and most of the employees were con-
sequently compelled to go without
lunch, so busy were they in trans
porting the singing sightseers.
The decorations at 'The WILLOWS
were picturesque. The American flaS
floated with the Christian Endeavor
banners, and over all waved yellow
streamers, California's chosen color.
The food for the throng was furnish
ed by the different churches, the bus

ENDEAvORER TRAFFIC.
Strong Probability of Cut in

CHICAGO, July 13.-An open cut in
the eastbound Christian Endeavor
rates is ore of the strongest probabili-
ties. California lines have been oftl-
cially notified that one will be ordered
if they do not live up the terms of the
original agreement regarding those
rates
Advices from San Francisco showed
they were about to set the agreement
at defiance in at least three vital par
ticulars. They purposed to pay COM
missions on the business, they wanted
to allow stopovers i'm territory east or
California, and they desire to increase
the number of dates on sale of tickets.
The Executive Committee of the
Western Passenger Association, after
considering the matter, decided that 1t
was the only effectual way OF stopping
demoralization arising from that con-
dition. So far as the other TWO OF

WEsLEY's BAREFOOT SERMON.

The Founder of Methodism Rebuked
Vanity While Teaching Physiology.
A trif1e more than $50 years since John
Wesley, the founder of Methodism, or
ganized a Sunday school in the town of
Savannah. The rules of that Sunday
school were different from those that pre-
vail nowadays. The children were COM
PEELED to attend excepting they were ill.
A lack of fine clothing was no excuse,
and so it happened that many Of the boys
and girls presented themselves in their
classes without shoes or stockings.
The colonists were, many Of them, too
poor to buy shoes, or even much clothing
of any kind. But the climate in Georgia
is mild and it is no hardship to go scan
tily clad.
Human nature, however, as it showed
itself in John Wesley's Sunday school
was the same as it is now. The children
who could afford shoes fell into the habit
saying disagreeable things to the bare
Dotted boys and girls. When Mr.. Wesley
heard of this from the parents OF the
children whose feet were bare and whose
pride was sensitive, he pondered for
awhile as to what course it would be
wisest to pursue. First he thought he
ought to insist on all the children COM
ng to the Sunday school barefooted.
Then he considered lecturing the offend
ers soundly on the sin of vanity. He did
neither, but the next Sunday what was
the surprise Of teachers and pupils to see
Preacher Wesley walk softly in with
bare clean, white feet!
One can fancy that those who wore
shoes drew their feet far back under the
benches, and the bare-footed ones con
. scious OF being in good company, sat
very straight and looked satisfied and
happy.
In the course of the session Mr.. Wesley
took occasion to speak Of the fearfully
and wonderfully made human body, and
placing his foot on a convenient chair, he
gave list of the bones, tendons and
oints, with much other anatomical knowl
edge. He told the school that no human
being could possibly make piece of ma
chinery as marvellous as the human foot
He called attention to the clumsines;
and ugliness of shoes and stockings. al
compared with the natural foot, with it
white and pink coloring, the blue vel.
showing through and each toe protecte,
by a beautiful, transparent shell.
Even the tan on the feet of children o.
grown people who ran barefooted all tn.
ime spoke OF the goodness and kindness
! the Creator. This tan was made by tbs
great sun, and the SOFT odorous winds.
/ The school thought this little lectur,
very interesting land it had q much bet
Ter effect than a scolding for the folly o
vanity. 1t may be supposed too, that la
tier in life these boys and girls, whei
finding themselves at disadvantage
ried to find out if there were not som,
compensation, even in what seemed to b.
