eight or nine men and half a dozen chill
dren. Judge Sears stood them all up in a
row and swore them to the truth en- masse,
after which each individual person became
desperately attentive to the testimony of
the plaintiff. This trial will be an incident
to date things from hereafter among the
acquaintance of the Dvoraks.
The husband testified he had been en-
gagged in the grocery business with his
brother. then in the brick making business
with his father-in-law. He lays the blame
for his marital troubles on parents-in-law
and accuses his wife of having established
another in his home as the man of the
house." during his absence in Chicago. This
person died and then another interloper

him at the head of the procession for the

ceremony will be carried out as far as
possible in the palace at TsarslSoe- Selo.
A great fagon of the waters OF the Neva
will be taken to the palace and this will
be mingled with the contents of a schalice
filled with waters from the sacred river
Jordan.
The colors of all the guard regiments
have been taken to Tsarskoe-Selo and
these will he blessed and sprinkled with

Those Desiring to he
Present.

CHICAGO Jan 1S.-The body of Marshall
Field arrived in Chicago today in a special
train over the Lake Shore a. Michigan
Southern railroad. The train stopped
at the Thirty-first street station of the road,
which is much nearer the Field mansion
than the downtown station. A large num-
Der OF the friends OF Mr.. Field were in
waiting and a detail of police was there
to keep back the crowd of curious which
had gathered as soon the hcarse had
stopped in front of the depot. When the
casket had been placed in the hearse it was
at once driven to the Field residence at
1905 Prairie avenue.
The funeral win be held at the late resi-
dence Of MIR. Field at II o'clock tomorrow
and will be extremely simple in character.
So many requests for admission to the
funeral were made that il was found that
there would not be a building in Chicago
sufficiently large to hold one-half of the
I people who would endeaver to attend the
services, and IL was at the last minute
agreed to abandon the idea of public
funeral because OF the inability to make
! the necessary arrangements in so short a
! time
The services at the house will consist Of
! a simple music service and a brief address
: by Rev j. A. Morrison of the First Pres
byterian church. The body will be placed
in the receiving vault at Graceand ceme-
terry until arrangements are made for the
, final interment.
The employees of Marshall Field, number
ing 10000. VIII hold memorial service to-
morrow afternoon in the Auditorium. Be-
cause Of the inability OF the hall to hold
all of them. It has been found necessary to
restrict attendance at the meeting to the
old employees OF the company and admission
will be only by card.
During the hours of the funeral from
noon until o'clock, all the large retail es-
Establishments on State street will be closed
and all the places Of business operated by
