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
1T was an impressive as well as a
tactful tribute" said Judge Harmon.

BUSINESS IMPROVES
With The RAILROADS AND
OUTLOOK is BRIGHT.
Better Than for Several Years Back
Says Crop Outlook in West Is Good
Railroads Must Spend Money to
Keep Roadbed in Good Shape to
Handle Business Offered Them.

Returns from the railroads gen
orally show that those roads not de-
pendent upon coal, steel and lumber
Industries have been doing well re-
Gently" said Commissioner Lane of
the Interstate commerce commission
recently. "Of course, they have not
done so well as last year. Generally
they have decided not to make any
reduction either in wages or in rates
of freight affecting the next three
months, which is an indication that
they believe that business will keep up.
There are some curious things
about prevailing conditions" contin-
ued Mr.. Lane. For instance, the Lee
high Valley the other day gave us a
report on net earnings for the first
five months of this calendar year, to-
gether with similar reports covering
the preceding five years, and the show
ing this year was-larger than that of
any other year during the period in
dicated
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 wher
they are not able to handle business
offered them. This was shown by the
floating of the Pennsylvania bond is
sue.
THE railway rate act is admitted
by candid railroad men themselves tt
have been of estimable value. Tn,
enforcement of the law against rebat
ing and our tenacious purpose to stol
discrimination have held them up to ;
conformity with the law that is with
out precedent"
