with creoe.
The clergy had blessed the remains, and
the procession started for the Hofburg.
The whole route was lined with troops,

The streets were imposingly decorated.
On reaching the hofburg, the remains
were transferred to the chapel. Emperor

the chapel to attend the ceremony of
blessing the body.
The scenes at the station, in the streets

solemn. The ceremony was most elabor

and the stiffness was only broken by the
muffied drums, the suppressed sobs of the
poDulace and the words of command.

given in an undertone.
As the coffin was borne to the chapel,
the choir chanted the Miserere.
The emperors coming had been kept a
secret from the people. He was accom-
panied by his daughters and his sons-in-
law. After the benediction, all departed
except the emperor and relatives, who re-
manned with the beloved dead until short

solitary retirement, only attending to

CAPTAIN EVANS RELIEVED.
Commander of the Iowa Will Be
Given Shore Duty.

Washington, Sept. 15.-Captain Rob-
ley D. Evans called at the navy de-
partment today and had a long talk
with Secretary Long, the immediate re-
suit of which was the issue of an order
relieving him from command of the
battleship Iowa, which is now being
repaired at the New York navy yard.
This was done at Captain Evans per-
sonal request He has served more
than the period of time required by
regulations and practice for q captain
TO command, and his next sea service
may be in flag rank. He has been
granted a leave of absence, and mean
time the nature of his next duty will
be determined. 1t will certainly be

The next commander of the Iowa
viii be Captain Silas Terry, in COM
nland of the receiving ship at the
Norfolk navy yard. He viii take the
ship around South America and over to
Honolulu in company of the Oregon
and some golfers. 1t is said at the
navy department today that the sail
ing orders to the battleships have not
yet been issued, and that when they
are they will ultimately proceed to
join Dewey's fleet at Manila, if it
should be deemed expedient to rein
force him. But as the journay around
South America will occupy nearly four
months, and many changes in the sit
uation as to the Philippines may be
expected to occur before the expectation
of that period of time, it cannot be
certainly foretold whether or not the
Oregon and the Iowa will ever reach
Manila.
Secretary Long this afternoon de-
cided to assign Captain Evans to duty
as a member of the naval inspection
board, and he will assume his new
duties after a brief vacation.

Lord Rag1an's ANXIETY.

During the Crimean war, Lord Rag
Ian was most conciliatory in his con-
duct and language to the French, but,
unluckily from old Peninsular associa-
tions. he was now and then betrayed
into speaking of them as 1.-The enemy"
IF we are placed here and the enemy
are posted there Good heavens,
my lord" Lord De Ros would cry,
what are you saying?" He was so
particularly DESTROYS of establishing
cordial relations between the English
and Turkish armies, and was much
disturbed at quarrel which took
place between some of the soldiers.
When the cOmbatants were dispersed.
one or two Turkish soldiers were left
lying dead. Lord de Ros was sent to
the grand vizier to express Lord Rag
lan's concern, and to promise that
every effort should be made to find out
and punish the guilty persons. On his
beginning to lament an unfortunate
occurrence, the Turk looked anxious,
but on the matter being broken to him,
he exclaimed with great relief. rs that
all, What can it matter if they were
killed or not?" Lord de Ros returned
to Lord Raglan, and in answer to his
anxious inquiries, TT is all right" he
replied. ''Our fellows are welcome to
kill as many of them as they please"

and that 11S of the ringleaders of the dis
turbanceS had been arrested. He added
that the embassies of the powers at Con-
stantinople, in Difference to the request
of the sultan. had agreed that the prison.
ers be tried by an international commits
sion.
This alleged decision of the embassies
does not accord with the demands made
by the British admiral, Gerard Henry
Noel, and will increase the difficulty ex-
perienced in dsarming the Mussulmans,
as it encourages them in the belief that
the sultan of Turkey still Influences the
embassies of the powers at CONSTANT
nople. 1t is doubtful whether Great
Britain win consent TO include the out
rage on her flag with, the question of pill
lage and the massacre of Christians,
which are purely international questions.
Later, 43 of the ringleaders who had
been arrested were delivered to the Brit
ish admiral and it was considered possible
that all the terms of his ultimatum would
be complied with without resistance.

SOLDIERS RUN THINGS.
Compelled the Railroad Company to
Carry Them Through.

Columbus, o., Sept. 15.-At the Union
station, about midnight, troops A, B
and c. First Ohio volunteer cavalry, of
Cleveland, took forcible possession of
a train and refused to permit it to be
moved. a
The soldiers were brought here from
Huntsville, Ala, in tourist sleepers, but
the contract only called for their use
as far as Columbus, so the Pennsyl-
vania road ordered the Cleveland
troops out, that the cars might be re-
turned to Cincinnati. The men refused,
and when an engine was coupled on
to the five cars an armed line of guards
was thrown around the train, the in
tention being to have one of the CleVe-
land roads attach the cars. The men
were to have left here before midnight,
but it was after a. m. when Major
Webb Hayes and District Passenger
Agent ]. NJ. Harris finally compromised
the matter. The cars went through on
a special c. A. & A. train, and an extra
claim for service will be filed by the
Pullman company.

His Real Pessimism.

The story is told that a friend, in
vited to dine with Schopenhaur at his
favorite restaurant, where a number OF
officers were in the habit of meeting,
noticed that Schopenhauer took a gold
coin from his pocket before eating and
laid it ON the table beside him, relates
the New York Jewish Messenger. When
the meal was over, the philosopher re-
placed the coin in his purse. Upon a
question from his friend. Schopenhausr
explained: Il have been dining with
these officers for some time. he said,
',and about two months ago / registered
silent vow to give this gold coin, of
considerable value, to some worthy
charity, on the very first occasion upon
which I should hear these gentlemen
talk of anything but women, horses and
the chances Of promotion. You see

take possession of the Cuban vessel
Fernandino, which was bringing sup
plies for the Cuban army. On board
were a guar of Il men. They were
fired upon by Spaniards in the fort
near the bay, one Cuban being killed.

the situation was given 70 General
Rios, in charge Of the Cuban forces
surrounding the town, and he threat
eaed an attack if the boat was not
allowed to land her cargo. There was
no further trouble, but the Cubans
DISPATCHED q courier to General Law

be sent TO ManzanillO- This request

discovering their whereabouts. His in

ASSESSMENT INSUR ANCE.
Address On the Subject at the Com
nissiopers' Convention.

milwaukee, Sept 15.-At the annual
convention of the national insurance
commissioners today the commission
erg on next place of meeting reported
in favor Of Detroit. and recommended
that the convention be held on the first
or second Tuesday of September next
year. The report was unanimously
adopted.
George D. Eldridge of New York
spoke on the assessment system of life
insurance. He recalled the fact that
insurance men received a shock the
past few years by the going down of
two great assessment companies, which
caused many to think whether or not
g. crime had been committed. To many
minds the most pronounced tendency
of the assessment movement has been
in the direction of assimilating itself
to so-called old line insurance, for
which is claimed every factor of sound
theory ard practice.
