The mortal remains OF Rev. Stanis-

In Mt. Ollvet Cemetery.
The funeral services took place at 10
o'clock this morning in the church over
which the well-known priest presided for
almost n quarter of century. More

a last tribuet to his memory.
His Emlnence. Cardinal Gibbons, ar
rived In Washington last night from
Westernport, Md, that he might otticinte
at the funeral and give the last absolu-
ton. Other high dignltares in the
church came from distant places that
they might add their presence to the
solemnity of the occasion. The flowers
sent by the members of the parish as
we'll MS those sent by intimate friends
outside the church added silent testimony
to the high esteem and affection in which
the deceased was held.
Long before the time set for the fun

others who had known the eminent divine
In social and business life. Because Of
the anticipated rush. admission was by
card only. Before 10 o'clock the church
was crowded to It's capacity and many
were prevented from seeing the funeral
service.
The body of the late rector lay in state
in the center aisle of the church. To the

emblems were displayed. The ediice was

JACKSON, Ky, May 26.-The capture
OF Tom White and the return OF Curtis
Jett to Breathitt county were the events
to-day on which CHEF interest focused.
The question Of whether more troops are
needed is agitating the minds Of many
tonight While nothing has occurred to
arouse apprehension there have been
suggestions that do not make all feel
secure The authorities feel that If more
troops shall be needed they will be badly
needed, and that any emergency will be
abrupt.
There is a we'll defined belief that when
Jett and White shall be put on trial there
Will be confession, and that number
of prominent men may be implicated.
1t is argued that an army of men could
be gathered quickly in the interior Of
Breathitt county, 1t could swoop down
on Jackson, and, under tho pretext of
lynching secure the prisoners. possibly
Kill some who possessed knowledge, and
apply the alage that dead men tell no
tales"
1t is true that this would be n desper-
ate undertaking, but desperate things
have been done in Breathitt county, and
this view may not seem as Incorporate
there as 1t would seem improbable else
where. At any rate Mrs. j. B. Marcum,
her friends, and some citizens are urging
that more troops be sent, believing that
the men now here and scattered among
various stations could not cope with
mob of mountain men,
a consultation among officers was held
to-day but further than ordering another
gatling gun from Louisville, there is no
indication that achievements will be re-
quested
