mercal supremacy would result between the linen
thread firms and the cotton thread trust
The head OF one OF the largest linen thread manu-
featuring firms In this country yesterday said that
the statement was absurd. 1t would be just a;
likelv," said he. that the champagne people would

Many Beautiful Floral Tributes - Ohio
Officially Represented.

Many Beautiful Floral Tributes - Ohio
Officially Represented.
Lima, O., December 19.-ThiS city is
draped in mourning and business is
suspended to-day while the remains Of
the late Calvin S. Brice lie in state.
When the funeral train arrived yester-
day, the remains were escorted by the
g. A. R. posts, the Union Veterans, the
Elks and others to the old Brice home
stead. At 9 o'clock to-day the same
solemn procession acted as escort to
the First Presbyterian church where
the remains were viewed by thousands,
while old comrades did sentinel duty
The pall-bearers were w. K. Boone,
Walter B. Richie, S. S. Wheeler, c. d.
Critics, S. d. Robb. H. o. Holdridge,
James B. Townsend. J. B. Vale, of
Lima; w. E. Hackedorn. of Indian
apolis; Bernard Layton, of Washing
ton, and George w. Hull, of Toledo.
The shops of the Lake Erie & West
ern Railway were not only closed, but
deliberately draped, as were other
buildings There were many visitors
from all parts of the country. Among
those in attendance with the family
were General Samuel Thomas, of New
York, and Ex-Governor Charles Foster,
who were closely associated with the
deceased for over twenty years. Gov
ernor Bushnell and staff were also pre-
sent. The old homestead and the
church were both literally filled with
floral tributes.
The only member of the Brice family
not present was his son, kirkpatrick,
who is in China, and no cablegrams
have yet been received in response to
those sent every day since the death
of his father. The funeral services
were conducted by the pastor, Rev.
THOMPSON, at the Market Street Pres
byterian church, of which Senator and
Mrs. Brice were members. DR.. w. o.
Thompson, president of the Miami Uni
versity at Oxford, O., delivered an ad-
dress on "The dead as an example for
voung men"

KISSED HOBS0N.
Four Hundred Women Turned Loose
On the Hero of the Merrimac.

Kansas City, December 19-Lieut.
Richmond Pearson Hobson, u. S. n,
was the central figure In an oseulatory
carnival at the Coates Hotel this after
noon, that clearly overshadowed any
of the kissing affairs in which the gal
liant Albanian has figured since his
return from more serious duties at San
tiago.
When Lieut.. Hobson arrived from
Chicago at 2 o'clock this afternoon he
was cheered by several hundred per-
sons who had gathered at the railway
station. A reception committee waited
with carriages and all along the route
from the station to his hotel the Mer-
rimac's commander was recognized and
cheered. The streets in the vicinity OF
the hotel were crowded.
In the corridor Of the hotel, supported
by the local reception committee. Lieut..
Hobson received and shook hands with
several hundred men. The more ex-
citing part of ii came few minutes
later, when the lieutenant was escort
ed to the parlors on the second floor.
where over 400 women, young, old,
handsome and PLAIN, waited to greet
the popular hero. Most OF them came
to be kissed, and 267 of them by actual
count were not disappointed. Some OF
the more mature OF them received
cordial shake and were passed UP the
line, but the most OF them who showed
the least inclination were embraced
and kissed. Tonight Liaut Hobson
divided honors with Major General A.
r. Chaffee, they being the guests Ut
honor at the annual banquet Of thu

AT M AEON
The President Received Another
Warm, Southern Welcome--W ore a
Confenerate Badge.

Macon, Ga, December 19.-The Pre-
Sldent and his party reached Macon
promptly on time and was received by
the largest crowd which has gathered
in Macon since the last visit of Jeffer-
son Davis to the city. At the station
was a reception committee consisting
of number of the most prominent
citizens of the town.
Drawn up in front of the station was
the Bibb county camp of the Confed-
crate Survivors Association, 400
strong, headed by Commander c. M.
Wiley. AS the President reached the
old Confederates he was halted by Col
Wiley, who addressed him.
AS the President was about to pro-
coed, DR.. Roland B. Hall, another vet
eran, address him as follows:
Mr. President, do us the honor, sir
to accept and wear this badge of a
Confederate veteran association which
bears your likeness and words which
should endear you to the hearts OF
every Confederate"
Il do not know that it will be prop
err" said the President.
But you must" said DR.. Hall. and
without further ceremony the Presi-
dent marched ahead with Judge Speer.
The sight of the Confederate badge on
the Presidents coat as he passed
through the lines Of veterans called
forth vociferous cheering.
The President wore the badge during
his stay in Macon. One of Gen. Wheel
er's old cavalrymen also pinned a
badge to the lapel of his major gen
erals coat, and the doughty little war
rior produly wore it away with him
when he left the city.
The Presidential party was driven
in carriages to the stand where the
President was to review the troops of
Gen. Bates division of Gen. Wilson S
army corps.
AS his carriage passed the Confed-
crate monument an old Confederate
veteran frantically waved a Confeder-
ate flag, while by his side was the son
of the colonel of one Of Georgia's hard
est fighting Confederate regiments,
who was as vigorously waving the stars
and stripes. When the President was
ARREST of them the two flags were
brought to a salute side by side. The
incident seemed to appeal to the Pres
ident. Emblazoned on the base Of the
monument were the words of the Pres
ident about the graves Of the Confed-
crate dead.
