 Since the passing away of this estimable lady, the home has been filled with in- numerable floral pieces, the last offer ings of the many who mourn her loss.
 Archbishop Riordan officiated at the funeral services, which were held yester- day morning at the lady's late residence. 1915 Cough street.
 Invitations to the services were issued by letter and the entire ceremony was conducted with the utmost privacy and solemnity.

WEIRD PARADE
 OF MEDICOS With Skull and CrossbOnes They Will March Through
 the Streets. A College Yell That Will Positiv ely Wake Up the
 Dead.

If the medical and dental students con, nected with the College of Physicians and Surgeons in this city carry out their original intentions San Francisco will be treated to a novel though somewhat grewsome spectacle on this evening, and timid people had better keep off Mar ket street and remain in the peaceful seclusion of their homes.
 These embryonic medicos and dentists will turn out and march to the Pavilion, to be present at the opening of the Min ing Fair and with them, as accessories will appear all the paraphernalia peculiar to their profession and some bones of the cadavers on which they have operated At their head will be a huge red banner with skull and crossbones done in white bunting, with the letters c. P. S. under meath. This will prepare the courageous beholder for graver things to come.
 Each participant will carry "femur," or thigh bone, and its somber aspect will be to some extent relieved with a bow of white and red ribbons. The reputed comedians of the college will be distin- guished from the others by carrying a bone called the "humerus," so named because of its connection with the funny bone, and it is expected that the bright shafts of wit that will emanate from the aforesaid comedians will obviate the ne- cessity of illumination along the line of march and will do away with the need less expense of burning fireworks.
 Various other bones, weird relics of individuals who have departed this sphere and upon whom the students have experi- mented, will be seen in this parade, and one enterprising member expressed his intention of exhibiting skeleton in it's entirety, but he was opposed by the rest, and so this feature will be eliminated There will also be seen saws, forceps, scalpels, and in fact everything apper- taining to the two professions.
 They will have their college yell, too, and 1t is said to be the most blood curdling one ever invented and will cause dead bones in our cemeteries to turn over and rattle in their graves.
 The students, to the number of 200. will be headed by the First Infantry band and after gazing on the wonders of the Mining Fair they will march to the California Hotel, where they will par take of a sumptuous banquet and listen to set speeches by the college faculty.

TAIL0RS FORM
 ANOTHER UNION New Local to Be Affiliated With the National
 Body. A Little Hard Feeling Just at Present, but No Serious Clash Is
 Expected.

A mass meeting of the journeymen tail ors of this city was held in Union Hall, 115e Mission street, on Thursday, for the purpose of organizing a branch of the Journevmen Tailors' Union of America, and a temporary organization was ef- fected.
 There has been for some time an organ ization of tailors known as the Journey men Tailors' Protective and Benevolent Union, composed mainly of the high priced tailors. This organization was not affiliated with any central body, and eX- ists in this city alone. The national or ganization has found it a constant men ace to the interests of union tailors, as workmen coming from the East are un- able to join it by depositing a travelling card and it can neither issue cards to tail ors going out of the city nor uphold a union label. Accordingly Organizer E. S. ChriStopherSen was dispatched to this city with instruction to draw the local union into the national body if possible, and in the event of his failure to do this to organize new local union, which would be chartered from the national
 He arrived in this city about two weeks ago and at once commenced his labors by holding shop meetings of both union and non-union shops, in which work he was ably assisted by the organizing com mittee of the San Francisco Labor Coun- cil. The majority of the members of the independent local union did not take very klnuly 10 the lued or auilldliOn, anu dt their last meeting a resolution providing for utilization was defeated, and MT. Christophersen then called a mass meeting of organized and unorganiZed tailors in the city for last night.
 At the meeting much enthusiasm was manifested and temporary organization was easily effected. J. T. Ellsworth was elected temporary chairman and George Nesbit temporary secretary. A prelimin- ary meting will be held at 1159 Mission street next Monday evening, when 1t is expected that a permanent organization will be effected.

ALEX BADLAM
 LAID TO REST
Grief Stricken Relatives and Borrowing Friends Sur
 round His Bier.
His Remains Are Placed in the Receiving Vault at Odd Fellows
 Cemetery.

The last act closing the life drama of Alexander Badlam was solemnly performed at his late home on Frank lin street yesterday afternoon by his grief stricken relatives and sorrowing friends.
 The religious ceremony over the dead was performed by the Rev. Robert Mackenzie of the First Presbyterian Church, and conformed to the ritual of that creed. The exercises con- sisted of the reading of prayers and the chanting of hymns, at the conclu- sion of which the preacher made a few remarks in eulogy of the career of the deceased, paying a touching tribute to his memory.
 As it was the last wish of MT. Bad lam to have flowers omitted at the fun eral obsequies, his wish was rigorous ly adhered to by his friends and rela- tives; and with the exception of a sheath of wheat, which was placed or top of the black pail covering the me- tallic casket, and a few flowers made into the form of pillows. there was a total absence of floral offerings.
 Those who acted as pail bearers were for the most part intimate friends of the deceased, and many of them had known him for years, and dated their friendship back over the sixty-seven years of his well-spent life to the time when he was a mere boy. The pal bearers were Fulton G. Berry, Judge J. D. Murphy, General w. H. L. Barnes, Charles G. Lathrop, Joseph Spear, Thomas R. Hayes, Theodore Rickard and Eugene Levy. The remains were conveyed to the | Odd Fellows Cemetery and placed ir the receiving vault, pending their fina ] diSpoSitiOn.

It would seem that residents of Oak

It would seem that residents of Oak land find no truth in the oft-re- peated saying that a secret would die in that city before it would be discovered.
 H. c. Coward of the Oakland Salt Works does not think so, nor does Miss Ella May Spear, a pretty resident of the Athenian town. Both these persons thought it best to hie themselves to an- other burg to become united, as they wanted no one to know of 1t.
 With this object in view both packed small gripsacks and left for Martinez last Wednesday, where they were made one by a Justice of the Peace. Immedi- ately after the marriage they boarded train and returned to Oakland and took up temporary quarters at the Hotel Pleasanton.
 No one was to know anything about the marriage, but strange to say a few inti- mate friends were taken into the secret to help keep 1t quiet.
 Like all secrets 1t soon leaked out and Mir. Coward was asked about it. He de- nied at first that there was a marriage, and further stated that he did not know Miss Spear. He suggested that his brother might have been the one to do a thing like that, but he-neYerl The brother not having returned the visitor was invited to seat and MT. Coward gently tried to find out how much was known. Con vinced that 1t was all out, he volunteered the statement that he was the one who had been married.
 ''1 didn't want 1t all over town" he said, because l did not think it was anybody's business. We did net elope, but only went to Martinez, so as to have quiet wedding. We intended going to San Rafael, but 1t was too far away.
 We were married by a Justice of the Peace, as l am not much of church man; and anyway I have too many of them on my books and they never pay. l told my wife that I could not afford a big ceiebration, as my business was de- 1 stroyed by fire a few months ago. She was perfectly willing that 1t should be quiet, but wanted it to come off at once. | but l think my wife will take sort of l one by going on a visit to her sister in Fresno. Just as soon as she returns we will go to housekeeping"
 Mrs. Coward was unwilling to submit 1 her views on the affair. but sent word by | her husband that it was not an elope- ment.

SAYS HE HAS
 A CONTRACT D. c. Coy Enters Complaint Against the Southern
 Pacific. Claims There Was an Agreement to Carry Flour at S5
 Per Ton.

If the statements made by D. c. Coy, a grocer of Woodland, before the Railroad Commission can be sub stantiated by that gentleman the Southern Pacific Company will have hard work explaining away certain telegram which it sent to Coy inform ing him that rate of $5 per ton would be accepted by the company as long as he continued to ship flour from Eugene, Or, to Woodland, Cal
 The matter was brought to the at tention of the commission in the form of a formal complaint made by Coy against the Southern Pacific for non fulfillment of certain contract alleged to have been made with the complain ant in the form of a telegram
 It seems that Mr. Coy, who is en- gagged in the wholesale and retail gro- cery business in Woodland, had been accustomed to purchase his flour from the Sacramento mills and have it sent down to his store in Woodland Fin ally, however, after the flour trust had been formed, the Sacramento mills raised the price of the article, and ac- cording to the complaint tried to dic- tate to Coy the figure at which he should retail 1t to the farmers with whom he deals. This figure was so high that the farmers found it cheaper to go to Sacramento themselves and buy their four, and while there would also purchase their other grocery supplies.
 This forced Coy to look elsewhere for a more satisfactory depot of SUD- plies, and finding that he could pur- chase his flour at Eugene, Or, much cheaper than the Sacramento mills would let him have it, he telegraphed c. F. Smurr, then in charge of the Southern Pacific freight department. asking what rate the company would make him on his shipments from that place to. Woodland. lie received a re- ply in which, as he claims, he was told that he could ship as long as he wished for S a ton.
 This enabled him to sell the flour at Woodland 35c a sack cheaper than was possible when he bought at Sacra- mento and at profit of 40 per cent more than when he was a customer of the mills at that place.
 This arrangement with the railroad people continued until December ', 1897, when Coy was informed that after Jan ary l, 1898, the rate would be S7 per ton. Hence the complaint that was presented to the commission yesterday.
