portunity to view the body should run
through three days, but tonight it is
learned that the funeral may be held
Friday instead OF Saturday night, owing
to the evidence that decomposition is
setting in. This is due to today's
severe heat, from which no embalming
could perfectly protect the body.
The impression Of those who today
passed before the gates of st. Peters to
view the body was one Of intense pity
combined with certain sense OF hoF-
ror. The body was tilted up on the
catalalque in order that all might see
the terribly shrunken face. An ordin-
ary skull in frame OF gold lying il
the midst Of a mass OF red robes coulS
scarcely have been more typial of death
Except at sunrise when the crush
threatened panic, all those who Wis
tied il had an opportunity of entering
st. Peters. During the day many oi
those who passed in stopped before the
cataialque to say quiet prayer. Hun
dreds of women and even some of the
men carried children in their arms.
