HE EuLoeIzEs CLEVELAND.
Behind Closed Doors, Roosevelt
Mourns Death.

Judson Harmon, attorney general in
the late President Cleveland's cabinet,
has returned to Cincinnati direct from
Princeton, where he attended the
Grover Cleveland funeral ceremony.
Judge Harmon related an incident
at the funeral which seems to have es-
capped general observation. President
Roosevelt, before the funeral, sum-
moned the two former cabinet officers
into the chamber of death and deliv-
cred to them, with his characteristic
energy and force, an exquisite eulogy
on the life and the death of Cleveland.
1t was probably the only eulogy
preached at the funeral, and even this
was delivered behind closed doors to
men who were much in the public
eye.
Around the bier, with heads bowed,
stood former Secretary of the Interior
Hoke Smith, former Secretaries David
R. Francis, Villas, Richard Olney, John
Carlisle, Herbert, Harmon and others.
All these and others had been sum-
moned to the bier by President Roose-
welt. The chief executive, pointing to
the coffin, told of the good deeds and
the faith in which Cleveland had died.
ut was an impressive as well as a
tactful tribute said Judge Harmon.

ENGLAND NEW FIGHTER.
New Type of BattIeship Is Driven by
Gas.

Great Britain is constructing new
type of battleship that will be able to
send the huge Dreadnaught to the
bottom as easily as the Dreadnaught
can sink the Russo-Japanese type of
ironclad. The new ship will be called
the Foudroyant, and she will cost $12,-
100000, which is s2,250,000 more than
was expended on the Dreadnaught.
The new monster will have no fun
nels, and will make no smoke. Her en-
gines will be driven by gas, which, be-
sides taking up less room than steam
engines, will allow a greater speed.
She will be $50 feet long and will
mount IL great 1876 guns, while no
other battleship now building provides
for guns larger than II inch.

the Interstate commerce commission
recently. "Of course, they have not
done so we'll as last year. Generally
they have decided not to make any
reduction either in wages or in rates
of freight affecting the next three

they believe that business will keep up.
There are some curious things
about prevailing conditions" contin-
ued Mr.. Lane For instance, the Lee

report ON net earnings for the first
five months of this calendar year, to-

the preceding five years, and the show
ing this year was larger than that of
any other year during the period in

THE prospect for large crops in the
west is extremely good. Railroad men
do not expect normal conditions to be
resumed Immediately, but look for
steady improvements.
Must Maintain Roadbeds.
"The railroads must spend money in
maintaining their roadbeds and equip
ment of their lines in order to meet the
demands of commerce, because they
are most seriously embarrassed when
they are not able to handle business
offered them. This was shown by the
floating of the Pennsylvania bond is.

The forthcoming statement of the
treasury receipts and expenditures for
the fiscal year ending June 80, shows a
marked falling off in receipts as COM
pared with the year 1907 and large

which has been exceeded only twice
since the civil war. In 1894 there was
a deficit and in 1899 there was an
other of a little over $89,000,000, and
in each of the four intervening years
the receipts fell considerably below
the disbursements. Again in 1904 and
1905 there were shortages of $4,177,0O0
and $23,0O0.000, respectively.
