TO PROTECT BODY
RUSSELL SACHS REMAINS IN COSTLY
 COFFIN.
Hs Burglar Rroos, Eneased In Chilled steel Case, Four Taches Thick
 Made at Request of Mrs. Sage.

New York, July 26.-Encased in hermetically sealed copper envelope, placed within solid mahogany coffin. the body of Russel Sage will today be placed in a chilled steel case. four inches thick, riveted with steel bolts locked with a. lock. which can only be opened from the inside, and lowered in- to a grave, carpeted and lined with eyergreens on which clods will be heap ed and the mound built.
 The steel case weighs three tons. It was shipped to Oakland cemetery. Troy
 Immediately after the steel box and the contents are lowered into the made. and wires will be strung so that any immediate alarm will be given If any attempt is made to tamper with the remains The extraordinary ef- bers were sanctioned by Mrs. Sage. and by her closest advisers.
 The expenditure for this protection and for the coffn and accessories will be greater so far as known than any sum expended in the burial of any other private citizen in the United States and is In striking contrast with the rigid economies praeticed during the long life time of Mir. Sage.
 The coffin. alone, of solid mahohany with 1tA copper lustuo euNCtopCs htht- mings and mahogany handles cost ap- proximately $l,000. The steel case. and it's patent unpickable lock cost s22. .00O. It is called the burglar proof coffin and 1t Is asserted that even with out the added precaution of electrical protection or guards. it would be im- possible for the most expert grave robber to get at the body.
 Mrs. Sage. 1t Is said. has had dread of a violation of the sepulture ever since the stealing of the body of A. T Stewart, and she readily consented to the proposal for safeguarding the grave of her husband
 The steel case Is of such hardness that it would take two expert safe openers a full day to break the outer shell and then only by the employ ment of specially constructed tools. There Is no visible lock to be attack ed.
 Once the lid Is closed down. . set of the locking mechanism clamps 1t inside at twenty points. and not the slightest opening is left for the inser- ton of a wedge. The corners are all rounded.
 Following a brief committaI service at the grave today, the lid of the steel case will be finally closed. The epitaph to be engraved upon the Sage monu- ment Is:
 II have done the best that could by the light of the day."
 The will of the dead financier will be offered for probate tomorrow and then if Mrs. Sage consents, it's contents. will he made public

BYERLEY IS A CLERK
SUCCESSFUL PANAMA BIDDER HAS
 NO MONEY.
n SimpIx Taksnw Flyer On His 0ysn Aee0uha, fAtchdinw to selI Mis
 Options at a Profit.

New York, July 25.--The identity of Samuel ByeFiey. the successful bidder for &5,S00,000 of the new Panama canal per cent bonds, was learned yester- day. E Byeriey turns out to be a clerk sin the accounting department of the American Express Company. Ever since the bids for the bonds were announced last Sat- urday, Wall Street has been trying to learn something about Mir. Byeriey. and has been speculating as to the interest behind his bid. Byerley was not in clined to answer any questions yester- day, after he had been located The treasurer of the American Express Company said:
 This is entirely a personal matter with MT. Byerley, who is one of our clerks. There is absolutely nothing in the runor that he represents interests in the company"
 Byerley has almost taken the breath away from some of hIs fellow clerks He had host of callers yesterday who wanted to know how he could af- ford to bid s5.s00.000 of government bonds, but he had nothing to say.
 The general opinion among those in the American Express Company's of- ice Is that Byerley is taking a little fiier, which has not cost anything more tangible so far than nerve Under the terms of the sale no money need be put up until August 1. Byerley made four bids. For $1.000. 900 of the bonds he of fered 104125; for the second million. 103.990; for the third million, 1o3.915. and for $2,S19.ss0 he offered ioa.s67.
 The New York syndicate that got one-half of the $30,00o.000 bonds, put up price on them yesterday of sfO4. 10. It was figured out by the bond experts yesterday that should Byerley sell his option at 104, he would clear s2.s50 without putting up cent, save for the postage stamp which carried his bid to Washington.
 Byerley 1t was learned yesterday. was once a clerk in a bank in Caiifor- mia. His bid has aroused no end of talk In Wall Street. and there are some bankers. who have expressed the opin- ion that half a certain per cenfage payment should be made when bids are filed as in the case of bonds
 There was a report in Wall Street yesterday that Byerley was endeavor- ing to sell his option. It was said that some of the big bond houses were hold Ing back in the belief that they would get some of his bonds eventually through his inability toe put up inc cash on August 1. Nevertheless. Wall Street guesses that the clerk will make good.
 Tn 1896. Abram White, a clerk in A brokers office, on his own hook. bid for a big block of bonds, and made profit of S100,000. As result of his bid "a rule was made by the Treasury Department that cash payment must accompany all bids. This rule obtain ed until this last bond issue when if was either overlooked or suspended
