EMPEROR BEARS 1T BRAVELY

VIENNA, Sept. 13.-The planned fu.
neral of the late Empress Elizabeth,
who was assassinated by an anarchist
Saturday, contemrlates bringing the
remains to Vienna next Thursday,
lying in state on Friday and the obse.
quies of interment on Saturday.
Every flag in the city is at half mast
and the theaters, races and other
amusements are suspended indefinitely.
The emperor's fortitude is the topic of
universal admiration. He is bearing
up manfully, despite the terrible
shock, which, in view of his age, has
inspired the gravest apprehension. AL.
though at first stunned and then
slightly excited, he soon regained his
self.control and
Displayed Remarkable Calmness.
Occasionally, however, completely
overpowdered by agitation, he moaned
piteously, repeatedly sobbing the name
OF the empress. Addressing Prince
Won Lieccthstein, chief marshal of the
imperial household, he exclaimed:
"It is incon ceivable how man could
lift his hand against one who never in
her life harmed anybody; one who did
great good" Then he moaned:
Nothing is spared to me in this
world.''
Dispatches of coincidence are arriving
at the palace from all parts of the
world, testifying to profound horror
and sympathy. Among them are mes.
sages from President Mckinley, EN- per-
or William and nearly all the European
sovereigns. The court will go into
mourning for six months. H.

Gasoline Explosion Cause. Loss Of Life
at Philadelphia. j.,
< PHILADELPHIA, Sept. l3.-By the ex.
plosion of 40 gallons Of gasoline in the
cellar of grocery store at 1444 South
street sur ely four and possibly dozen
more lives were lost. As an immediate
consequence Of the explosion the build.
ing in which it occurred and those ad.
joining it on either side collapsed.
All the buildings were Of brick,
three stories in heigth. In the con.
fusion and excitement following the
disaster it is impossible to obtain any.
thing like clear account Of the occur.
renee, but it is stated that the upper
floors were crowded with families hud.
died together in tenement fashion.
Coming Is it did at the supper hour it
is feared the loss Of life will be heavy.
The list Of injured is long. They
we're taken to all the hospitals within
alradius Of 3 mile. After the discov.
cry OF the four bodies the authorities
decided TO postpone the search for ad.
ditional victims until morning, thus
obviating the dangers and delays Of
