in the Senate Chamber.

Beautiful and Impressive Services Held
in the Senate Chamber.
Washington, ID. c., April 23.-The ma
tons capitol was draped in mourning
to-day. Flags on the great marble pile
were at half mast and throughout the
Senate wing of the magnificent structure
evidences of grief and sadness were al
every hand.
At noon the Senate was called to or
der to pay tribute of respect to Hon.
Edward Cary Walthall, late Senator
from Mississippi, who died Thursday ar
ternoon.
The remains of Senator Walthal were
conveyed to the capitol last evening and
were living in state in the marble room
of the Senate until 8 o'clock to-day
when they were placed in the Senate
chamber in the area in front of the
Presidents desk.
Senator WalthalPs desk and chair on
the main aisle were draped in black
The casket was covered with superb ilo-
raj offerings.
Promptly at noon, Vice-President Ho-
bart's gayel fell calling the Senate to or
der. The Senators occupied seats on
of the House of Representatives occu-
pied seats on the right side of the cham
ber. The diplomatic corps. headed by it's
dean. Sir Julian Pauncefote. occupied
seats Immediately in front of the mem
bcrs of the House of Representatives.

be present., were also attendants at the
ceremonies. Occupying seats in front

The ceremonies were impressive. AT
ter invocation by Rev. j. III. Milburn,

THEIR DESTINATION
NOT MADE KNOWN
PROBABLE THEY MAY CONVOY
MARINES TO KEY WEST.
Or PERHAPS GO TO PROTECT THE PARIS
Commodore Scaey Refused to Give Destination
of Vessels Both Cruisers are Heavily
Armored and Can put up a
Hot Fight.

Fort Monroe. April 23.-The gun from
the Minneapolis was the signal for
great excitement both on shore and on
board the ships. Officers with side
arms notified those ashore to hurry
aboard and there were goOd-byes saiG
in a hurried way while officers on both
boats prOfessed ignorance of orders So
far as destination is concerned.
Commodore Schlcy said to the AssO-
ciated Press representative: Il can
not divulge the destination of the de
tached vessels They are going to sea"
Rumor said that the vessels might
have Il different destination after pass
ing the Capes, at the entrance to this
harbor, than merely conveying the trans
port with troops. 1t was possible that
the two fast ships might 90 out and
meet the Paris now en- route to New
York city. The transport with the ma
rines on board might stay close enough
to the coast to run in shore of an enemy
was seen and the Paris was too valua-
Die a ship to lose. On the other hand,
it is fairly certain that the two fast
cruisers will simply be Il convoy for the
troops transport. The Columbia ana
Minneapolis are the fastest ships in the
navy and can make an average of 21
knots per hour.
The last rumor was to the effect that
the Minneapolis was TO run after the
Paris and the Columbia to guard thu.
transport to Key West. but the inn
probability of this lies in the fact that
the Paris could be in New York harbOr
under forced steam before the Mime
apolis could find her.
1t is highly probable that both cruis-
ers will be in Key West in day or
two with the troops transport. Both
cruisers are heavily armed and will
give a hot fight to any enemy known
to be on this coast There is one thing
that lends color to the theory that one
ship is after the Paris and one to be
4 convoy, and that is that there is no
Spanish ship near this coast that could
not he controlled by either one Of the
big cruisers.
