ment from the time it leaves st. Paul
until it arrives in San Francisco. for
the national encampnent.
A special train. carrying the depart
ment delegation to the national en-
campment, will leave the Twin Cities
Aug. 10, and 1t is expected that more
than 400 comrades will make the trip.
The Minneapolis Est. Louis has been
chosen as the official route out of the
Twin Cities, and will take the special
to Omaha. The Rock Island will be
the route from Omaha to Denver. The
Denver e Rio Grande will carry the
train over it's picturesque route from
Denver to Ogden. where the SouoaelNl
Pacific will take it in charge for the
remainder of the way
The official train will make stops Of
several hours at Omaha, Denver, Col
orado Springs, Glenwood Springs and
Salt Lake City, so that there will be
ample opportunity to visit places of
interest about these cities The train
will arrive in San Francisco Aug. 16,
the day before the encampment begins

Officially it is one of the symbols Of
Office NOSE priced by the church. Al
though lost two or three times, it mas
always been recovered.
Within the right nave of st. Pc
ter's another preparation for the pope.s
obsequies was going on today. This
was the preparation of the chapel OF
the holy sacrament for receiving his
body after its removal from the Vati-
can. Cardinal Respighi, the vicar of
Rome, had given orders for these ar
rangements. Although Cardinal Greg
liza has supreme command of the inter-
ests of the church, it is Cardinal Res
pighi who has been given immediate
charge of the personal affairs relating
to the dead pope Accordingly, the
beautiful chapel was for the time being
invaded by sweepers and cleaners,
who poured buckets of water on the
mosaic pavement and then began
securing it with pumfce stone.
The front of the chapel is cut off
trelace, through which the faithful
is of solid brass, with a heroic brass
kneeling angel. Before the altar is a
very narrow space, where Leo's coffin
will be deposited when it comes from
the Vatican. This space is SO small
that the foot of the casket will extend
to the iron trelace. The purpose of
this arrangement is to carry out the
ancient ceremony by which the actual
foot of the dead pontiff will extend
through the iron barriers, to permit
the kneeling faithful to approach and
kiss the last remnant of former papal
authority through 1t.

Weekly Milwaukee and Oma-

'By reducing the fare between Chi
cago and the Twin Cities from $l1.5o
to So. the Chicago ST. Paul lines are
weekly losing more than $4,000 on
through traffic"
This statement was made yesterday
by a railroad official who is in po-
sition to know almost exactly what
the volume of travel is between Chi
cago and the Twin Cities.
II figure" he continued, that at
least 1000 people travel weekly to and
from Minneapolis st. Paul and Chica-
go. The present rate of fare is $S, or
$3.50 less than the old tariff of $11.50.
Now. the loss of $3.50 head on 1000
passengers would bring the total up
to $4,000, but allow $1,000 for the
free transportation, on which there can
be no additional loss. 800

between the lines is coming pretty
high. and is undoubtedly making a big

these lines carry the bulk of the Chi

Great Westerns $1,000 The total def

Nov, the figures given above are
only on through business. You under
stand that great many local rates
have been reduced on account Of the
installation of the IS rate. and the
deficit on that class of business will
swell the total loss to at least $4,000.

EQUALIZERS CONSIDER

Stenographer.

The board of equalization met yes
terday, and after the appointment of
the necessary committee took up the
consideration of number of applica-
lions for a reduction of taxes. The ap-
plications were mostly small ones and
were referred to the proper commit
tees for investigation. The commit
tees named at yesterdays meeting
were as follows:
Wholesalers -Whitcomb, Nash, Pott-
gieser.
Retailers Gray, Wright, Dobner.
Manufacturers = Bantz, Van Slyke,
Wright.
Hotels and Saloons = Pottgieser,
Bantz, Nash.
Miscellaneous = Conley, Dobner,
Gray.
There was some discussion as to the
boards authority to employ a stenog-
rapher, County Attorney Kane con-
tending the board had no power to en-
ploy one. Assessor Conley, however,
solved the problem by offering the
services of his stenographer, with the
understanding that if the county would
not pay her he would.

FLOOD CAUSES CONGESTION.
Roads Can Ship No Grain Via Kansas
CITY Routes,

The Burlington and the Missouri Pa
cific have announced that they will not
receive grain shipments for Kansas
City, and the Missouri Pacific is also
refusing to receive grain routed
through Kansas City for other points.
The Santa Fe probably will issue an
order today placing an embargo
against the Burlington, Missouri Pa
cific, Wabash and Kansas City South
ern. This means that the Santa Fe
will not deliver cars to the roads
named until some, assurance can be
had that these lines will return cars
promptly.
The railroad officials contend that
the flood brought. about conditions
making it necessary to refuse grain
shipments. Unless the railroads take
speedy action to relieve the situation
at Kansas City serious blockade will
result. Under normal conditions near
ly all of the Kansas wheat crop passes
through Kansas City, but this year the
congested conditions will compel the
shipment of grain by circuitous routes
to points other than Kansas City

votion, flocked to vespers to say hur-
ried prayer Afterwards they loltered
outside reading the deep, black-edged
proclamations of Cardinal Resp1ghl,
the vicar of Rome, concerning the fu-
neral arrangements, the meeting of the
conclave and the church ceremonlals.
The quiet of the evening was broken
by a chorus such as the world has sell
dom heard. On the strike of all OF
Rome's 400 churches commenced to
Toll bells for the passing of the soul OF
Leo Kill From the seven hills ana
from every quarter of the city when
contained churches came the constant
clank until all was one vast reverbra-
ton.
The harsh jingling of the smaller
chapel bells striking quickly and more
often was not drowned by the solemn
strokes that came in mourning meas
ure from the great dome of st. Peters.
1t was as if a fire ragged and every bell
ing Rome were vieing with each other
in anxiety to warn the populace. EX-
cept in it's common motive and COM
mon sorrow it was an amazing discord,
which continued an hour, and which
will occur nightly until the obseques
are over.
In the Weird Light of Torches.
The viscera of Pope Leo which to-
day was placed in an earthen urn and
Professionally deposited in the crypt of
st. Peters, was removed at midnight
10 a magnificent urn which, carried by
Mgrs. Marzollini and Angel, was taken
In the Vatican carriage to the church
Of st. Vincent Anastasius. The mys-
teriously picturesque scene was such
as is only possible in Rome. The car
rage was met at the door of the
church by priests carrying torches
which fiared in the breeze, the flicker
Ing light having a weird effect on the
faces of those present.
The Viscera of all the popeS except
Plus TX. were deposited in this church,
which was selected because it stands
In the parish of the quirinal, formerly
the house of the popes. The viscera
Of Plus TX. was not taken there, as it
was feared at that time that some I'M
toward incident might take place dur
Ing it's transportation. The peaceful
manner in which the ceremony was
performed tonight is regarded as a
fresh proof of the improved relations
between the church and the state.
OreqIia and RampoIIa May Agree.
Cardinal Oreglia's request to Cardi-
nal Rampolla that the latter should
remain at the Vatican is considered a
most diplomatic move, being perhaps
the first step for an agreement be-
tween them and may entirely change
all the prophecies hitherto made con-
corning the issue of the conclave. In
deed, some profess to see a result of
this in today's skirmish at the first
meeting of the, congregation of cardi-
nails over the appointment of a sec

RECOGNITION OF DEATH.
Two Weird Ceremonies Are Observed
in the Vatican.

ROME, July 21.-ThiS morning De
gan the first Of those grand ceremonies
which follow the demise OF a pope ana,
although private, it was conducted
with great pomp and was most I'M
pressive. All the cardinals present IN
Rome, numbering twenty-n1ne, assem-
bled at the apostolic palace to view the
remains of the late Leo XIII. and offl-
cially to pronounce him dead. Card1-
nal Oreglia, dean of the sacred college
and camerlengo Of the holy Roman
church, had to put aside his cardinal
robes as a sign of deep mourning ana
was gowned entirely in violet. The
other cardinals wore crimson robes,
with violet collars, indicative OF
mourning
Within the death chamber the body
lay, with white veil over the face, on
the bed, surrounded by franciscan
penitentiaries, while outside the noble
guard maintained a solemn vigil. Inc
profound silence was only broken by
the chanting Of prayers for the dead.
Into this solemn presence came the
mourning procession Of cardinals, who,
kneeling, silently prayed. linen the
prelates reverently looked on while
Cardinal Oreglia approached the re-
mains For this mornings function
the .pope's bedroom had been trans :
formed into a kind of mortuary chapel
with the altar at one end, having in
the center a cruciflX surrounded by SIX
lighted candles. Four candles stood at
the bed corners.
The white veil was then removed
from the dead mans face revealing the
camoo-like features of the departed
pope, rendered sharper and more
TRANSPARENT by death. So lifelike was
the body that these present half ex-
pected Leo to raise his hand in the ia
miliar gesture of blessing.
A moment of GREATNESS silence en-
sued and then the cardinal camerlengo,
taking the aspersorium, sprinkled the
late pontiff with holy water and said
in a firm voice: "Gioacchlno' tthe
Christian name of the deceased holy
father). When there was no answer
the same word was repeated three
times louder and louder, after which,
turning to the kneeling cardinals, the
camerlengo solemnly announced:
Papa We're Mortuus Est" (the pope is
really dead.
AS the words were uttered there
arose from the. kneeling cardinals a
sigh like that of the wind in the trees
at night, tribute paid to the late pom
tiff by these princely heads of the
church After this, in voices trembling
with emotion, the cardinals recited the
De Profundis, gave absolution and
sprinkled the body with holy water.
Following this ceremony came an
! other shorter but no less significant
and symbolic. On Leo's finger was the
famous "Fisherman's ring" which the
camerlengo, with a whispered prayer,
drew gently off, and which later will be
broken in the presence of the cardinals,
reset and presented to the new pope
when he is elected.
The ring is of great antiquity 1t is
even said to have belonged to st. Pc
ter himself. 1t is stone of little val
ue, cut with the scene of st. Peter
drawing in his fishing nets. 1t was first
used about the year 1865. but for Sc
cret documents it was only used later.
