AT WASHINGToN'S TOMB.
Prince Henry Deposits Two Wreaths
and Plants Memo
rial Tree.

Washington, Feb. 2s.-Prince Henry
of Prussia journeyed to Mount Vernon
Thursday afternoon and placed two
wreaths on the tomb of Washington.
He approached the grave of the first
president with barred head, and that
there might be nothing irreverent in
the ceremony asked the holders of
dozen cameras who stood around to
refrain from photographing him.
When the iron gate of the tomb was
opened, he removed his cap and en-
tered. Two large wreaths made al
Washington by his order already had
been sent to the tomb, and taking them
up he formally set them in place. A
group of over hundred men that
stood in the approach to the grave
uncovered and that, with their silence,
added to the spirit of solemnity. Fifty
feet down the sward that falls away
from the tomb Prince Henry planted
a linden tree. The tree had been set
in place prior to his arrival and, TAX
ing a spade, the prince filled the earth
in around it's roots.
Prince Henry, accompanied by Am
bassador Won Holleben, dined at the
white house Thursday night with Pres
ident and Mrs. Roosevelt. The dinner
was entirely unofficial and of per-
sonal family character, and owing to
the Mckinley exercises making the day
one of mourning, there were no formal
toasts or exchanges, the purpose be-
ing to permit more intimate personal
exchange than was possible during the
forInalities of official interchange last
Monday. Others present at the din
ner were Gen. Won Plessen, of the
princes staff, Miss Roosevelt, Miss
Carow, and Senator and Mrs. Lodge.

KILLED HIMSELF.
Prominent Ohioan Commits Suicide
mt Warren Through Grief mt
Fate of His Son.

Warren, o., March 3.-Hon. Henry
Bishop Perkins, one of Ohio's most
prominent and philanthropic citizens,
killed himself by hanging Sunday in
his Office, adjoining his home, in this
city. The body was found shortly
before noon by his family, who went
to call him to dinner. Illness and the
suicide of a favorite son, Yale
graduate, a year ago, is believed to
have made Mr.. Perkins temporarily
insane. Mr.. Perkins was born in
Warren and always lived here. He
was president of the First national
bank of Warren and also prominent
in railroad and state affairs. He was
a man of large fortune, said to be
5000, 900 or 100000.

Iowa Central Offices to be Moved

Central headquarters in Marshall.
town, as far as the general offices of
the company are concerned, is today
a reality; the long-expected crisis has
been reached and on April Marshall
; town will have but little left in the
building that has sheltered the gen.
eral officers of the company for so
many years. The auditing department
has orders to move.
Mr.. WATSON received the letter
from Mr.. Day late Friday afternoon,
and according to instructions sum-
moned the employees before him
shortly before the hour for closing up
the days work, and read it to them.
The letter is as follows:
st. /. WATSON, general auditor,
Marshalltown, Iowa-Dear Sir: For
the sake of convenience and economy
in management, it has been decided
to remove the accounting forces
from Marshalltown to Minneapolis on
April 1, and on that date Mr.. Nay
will assume the duties of auditor of
the Iowa Central Railway Company
in addition to those which he already
performs.
"Previous to that date he will have
his chief clerk go to Marshalltown to
act as chief clerk at that point, in
order that he may acquaint himself
with his new and additional duties,
and l will be obliged if you will afford
him every facility and assistance
possible
SIT is probable that all of the clerks
now in the accounting department at
Marshalltown can be continued in the
work of that department at Minnea-
polls IL they so desire. / will be glad
il you will inform them to that effect
and give them to understand that we
are DESTROYS that they shall in no way
suffer disadvantage from the change
that is about to take place.
Yours truly,
l.. F. DAY."
The order from Minneapolis retires
General Auditor WATSON and his chief
clerk, II. L. Stuntz, affecting the
latter only in the fact that he is to
retire as chief clerk. Mr.. WATSON
and Mr.. Stuntz may both be offered
positions with the company at Min
neapolis, but whether they would be
acceptable or not can not be told at
present. The removal of the depart
ment affects thirty-seven employees.
OF the employees eleven are men of
families. The pay roll for the month
of February, just closed, was 81, 500 go,
so that an idea can be obtained of the
effect of this in Marshalltown Cen
eral Auditor WATSON, when asked
about the number of employees that
would probably go to Minneapolis
with the removal of the department,
replied that because of the sudden
ness of the order it would be impos-
sible at present to formulate definite
opinion.
