THE cANovAs FUNERAL.
Most Impressive AfYair In which all tho
Public Mon Participate.

Most Impressive AnHif In which All tho
Public Men Participate.
Madrid, Aug. 13.-The funeral of
Senor Canovas del Castillo to-day was
most touching and solemn ceremony.
All the troops of the garrison lined the
route along which the cortege moved;
the flags were lowered, and the public
clubs were heavily draped with crepe.
More than n thousand wrenths were
deposited in the death chamber. A
sdlvo of artillery announced the start
ing of the funeral procession, which
moved slowly through an enormous
crowd, in which all heads were bare
and many eyes were weeping.
A peculiar poignant scene ensued
Martinez Campos, Marquis Pazo de la
Merrzed and the other pallbcnrers
lifted the coffin. Sonora Cnnvos. in a
clear, firm tone, said: 81 desire that
all should know that forgive the as
sassin. 1t is the greatest sacrifice that
1 can make; but make it, for the
sake of what know of lly husbands
great heart" aI s"r
Through the entire distance between
the death chamber and the church the
road was strewn with flowers and
laurels.
Senior Sagasta headed the cortege,
which was formed of militia, deputies,
senators, generals, admirals and dele
cations representing all the principal
public bodies. The wreath of the
queen regent rested upon the coffin
and other floral tributes were carried
in special carriages.
All the shops in the city were closed
and n very large proportion of the
populace that thronged the streets ap-
peared in mourning garb. The entire
garrison marched past the coffin and
the service lasted from 4 until 7:30
p. m. ... ..... -.
The remains of Senor Canovns were
inferred in the family vault in the st.
Isidoro cemetery, amid salvos Of ar
tillery and the tolling of all the bells
of the city.

The Greatest Water Power.

Contracts are to be let by John Bo-
CART, the well known engineer of New
York, for what will be the greatest
water power plant in the world. Ihe
contracts will call for fifteen turbines
of 5000 horse power each, or an az
gregate Of $4,000 horse power. The pro-
posal is to take the water from the 81.
Lawrence river. near Massena. n. J.,
an English company having underwrit-
ten $1,000. 900 In bonds to carry out the
scheme. In the neighborhood OF Mas.
Sena the st. Lawrence has fnil OF
tifty-six feet in distance OF nbout
seven miles. One of the channels Is the
Grass river. which at Massena is about
fifty feet lower than the st. Law
renee. A canal connecting the two
makes available a large power. The
proposal is to cut this canal three anu
one-half miles long, 800 feet broad and
.26 feet deep. With working head OF
forty feet it could send enough water
into the Grass river to develop IoV'oM
horse power The canal to be bulit VIII
furnish 100000 horse power and or thht
49, 900 is to be developed by the ma mIa-
chinery now being contracted for; Inc
turbines and generators Will be placed
on horizontal shafts. the unit oeins
5000 horse power. We understand that
a large part of the power has already
been applied for, and that the plah ~
