|BN|lAPOS|lG FUNERAL MASS.


Francis Joseph, at nine o'clock this
morning, received the special repreSen-
tative Of foreign sovereigns.
An hour later he received the visit
ing sovereigns, with ghe exception OF
the King OF Saxony, whom he person
ally greeted at the railroad station.
The inhabitants of this city are
streaming in dense crowds towards the
chapel OF the Hofburg and are defiling
before the casket containing the re-
mains of the late Empress.
Emperor Francis Joseph, Prince
Hoheniohe, the German imperial chan
cellor and Baron Won BueiOw, the Ger
man minister for foreign affairs, re-
ceived Emperor William at the rail-
road station. The Emperors shook
hands and kissed each others cheeks
three times. They then proceeded to
the church where Emperor William, in
behalf OF himself and the Empress OF
Germany, deposited ON the casket con-
tanning the remains of the late Empress
of Austria floral wreath, which his
majesty had brought from Germany.
The Emperor dined at the German en-
bassy after the funeral and started for
Berlin this evening.
The aspect of this city to-day was
more sonlbre than upon any day of the
week of mourning. Hardly house
was without black draperies and the
entire populacer seemed to have poured
out into the streets
At o'clock the tOlling bells an
nounced the starting of the procession.
The route from the Hofburg to the in
significant church of the Capuehins,
whose vaults entomb the Hapsburgs, is
SO short that only small portion OF
the population was able to crowd into
the adjoining streets.
While the procession was being
formed the church was filed with the
foreign princes, who arrived without
ostentation in closed carriages and who
were conducted to the front peWs. Out
side the church a company of distin-
guished generals and staff officers were
aligned.
A large number of priests in full
canonicals met the procession at the
Augustine church and proceeded with
it to the church of the Capuchins. The
clergy there marched down the aisle
before the coffin and united in intoning
prayers, which were also eXquisitely
chanted during the service by the court
choir. During the last prayer the cof-
fin was lifted from the catafalque and
the clergy, bearing torches, walked be-
fore it. Emperor Francis Joseph, at
tended by the highest officers of state,
bearing wands, followed.
The procession slowly passed from
the sight of the congregation down a
stone stairway to the vaults. After the
last benedictiOn had been PRONOUNCED
in the vaults the mourners reascended
and the high chamberlain handed the
key of the vault to the Capuchin who
is the guardian of the imperial mauso-
leum.

ported to-day are new to me, feel per-
fectly safe in saying that in the end
it will be found to be simply an agree
ment for the interchange of business
between the roads which are parties
to it. Not a pooling arrangement, but
something closer and more intimate
than that, in the nature, for instance,
of the relations now existing between
the B. & o. Jersey Central and the
Reading systems. 1t may be possible
that company may be formed to con-
troll the whole of the proposed new
system and that Mr.. Hill may become
president Of the parent or controlling
company, but l am sure that no deal
has been or will be arranged by the
parties interested in the contemplated
consolidation which involves the re-
novel of either Messrs. CoWen or Muir
ray or their associates from such con-
troll Of the B. & o. as they now have
and have had in the past.
j. H. Maddy, the press agent OF the
B. & o. railway, tonight said to the
representative of the Associated Press
that the statement made in Cincinnati
to-day by E. R. Bacon, president of the
Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern, Is
semi-ofiicial and added that no further
statement would be issued at present.
Receivers Cowen and Murray are not
expected to reach Baltimore before
Monday.
Cincinnati, O., September 1.-THE

rived here to-day from Chicago, the
party including Receivers John K.
Cowen and Oscar G. Murray, General
Manager VIM. NJ. Greene, F. w. Will
shire. M. B. Will, E. Alton and George
NJ. Shriever, Baltimore. About the
same time President +. r. Bacon, Vice
President W. W. Peabody, John Walker
and other officials of the Baltimore &
Ohio Southwestern arrived from New
York. The officials Of these sister
lines were in close conference during
the day and evening at the st. Nicholas.
President Bacon, Receiver Cowen
and others will leave Monday after
noon for the East, and President Ba-
con will shortly after reaching New
York sail for Europe to confer with
English interests in the proposed reor-
ganization.
The receivers and President Bacon
and Vice President Peabody, of the
Southwestern system, had experts with
them going over figures for changing
grades and increasing the capacity and
facilities of that system from Parkers-
burg, on the Ohio river. to Cincinnati,
Louisville, st. Louis and other points.
1t seems certain that the Southwestern
system is to receive great improve

Robbing the Government.

The pull which the railroads have
with the government is illustrated by
the exorbitant rates paid them for
carrying mail. In an article on this
subject which appeared in the Boston
Transcript, Carl w. Ernst, says:
"The inference seems fair that rail-
roads took just about $l7O for every
ton OF mail matter they carried. For
ton of common freight they took
about dollar. The entire cost Of
handling ton of express matter, in
Guiding transportation, terminal ex-
penses and dividends, is less than $50,
as the census of 1890 shows. We pay
about as much for railway mail trans
portation as the rest of the world COM

Thirfeenth-We favor the submission TO the
people of the State ola constitutional amend
mcat providing for direct legislation.
FUurtrrn:h--lt is with satisfaction and pride
that direct the attention OF the people of this
State to the fact that every promise and pledge
of economy and reduction of state debt made TO
them in the campaign of lsM has been faithfully
kept 10y ;hc fusion legislature and state adj
miui>tIatinu, and We hereby express our graft
iudr to Hon John Rogers. the governor of this
State, and all the state officers Tor the patriotic,
strong, clean ami economical admin Istrat ON of
state atIaiis.
We congratulate the taxpayers aud voters of
the State That fusion has put an end to the dis
graceful scandals and braztn robhrr of the
public treasures and to the wantou Extravaganza
and criminal waste of the taxpayers m,ney
that resulted in plunging this fair young state
and every county into an enormous debt under
/ Republican mlSrl!le.
Fusion has restored the credit of The State.
1t has increased the value OF its securities from
discount of 10 per cent. under Republican eX
trayagance to a premium of ~ per cent. to day
II has reduced the cost of operating and main
tanning the public institutions of the state more
than % per cent.
1t has greatly increased the efficiency of the
common school system.
1t has collected the revenues of the State
rlghtfully belonging to It,
1t has reclaimed 100 900 acres of school lands
out of which the state WAS dcfrauded under Re
publican rule
II has established labor bureau and has pro
tected The laborer and secures TO him and h is
family his hire.
Ii has reversed the order of things-of going
into dent under Republican rule at the rate OF
Si.2U0 per day to reducing the debt under fusion
rule at the rate of s. 900 per day.
1t has reduced the state debt in eighteen
months over 500. 900.
1t has placed many of the counties in this
State, whose securities under Repubi lean rule
were drug on the market, on cash basis.
We favor the amendment to the State con-
stitution providing for liberal exemption of
personal property from taxation.

REMEDIES FOR HEADACHE.

] Too little blood in the brain Is a
| frequent cause OF headache, and may
/ be recognized by the ache being on
the top OF the head, by constant dixzi-
ness and by noises in the ears. The
best cure Is slight stimulant. such
/ as strong tea or coffee or hot SOUP
anything which will increase the cir
culatinn. People who suffer with
/ these headaches should always sleep
with their heads low.
Too much blood in the brain will
cause splitting headache, which is
felt all over the head. The face be-
comes flushed, the temples throb, and
strong light or a noise will cause ex-
cruciating pain. These headaches are
felt by people who have too much
blood, by those who worry or study TOO
much and by those who live irregular
| ". The sufferer is also often afflicted
by palpitation and indigestion and
needs to be most careful OF the diet.
Meat should not be eaten more than
once day. Great relief will be found
by sitting with the feet in mustard
and water for quarter of an house.
A neuralgia headache is most fire.
quently felt across the forehead and
sometimes at the back of the head,
and generally arises from cold caught
in bad tooth, which affects the nerves
on that side of the face. If the pain
be in the forehead, relief may be OBJ
tanned by placing mustard leaf for
twenty minutes on the na2e OF the
neck or by the side of the eye just
just over the temple. A piece of brown
paper soaked in vinegar and sprinkled
thickly with pepper and laid over the
painful spot is a homely but some
times effective remedy. 1t should be
kept ON until the paper becomes dry,
when it should be removed and ap-
piled until the pain is relieved. Pre-
cautions must be taken not to catch
fresh cold after this.
Another form of neuralgia COM
mences with little specks dancing
before the eyes, the pain seeming to be
confined to exactly one-half the head
or face. A violent sickness usually ac-
companies this headache, but no re-
lief is obtained by vomiting. Hot
water applications are the best for
these attacks. Pour boiling water
over square of flannel and wiring it
out tightly in a towel to avoid scalding
the hands. Place it over the seat of
the pain. Have ready another square
of flannel and treat in the same way
and apply as soon as the first piece be-
gins to get cold. Continue this pro-
cess without ceasing until the pain is
relieved.
