Washington: The sundry civil APP

the Government, passed the Senate
Wednesday. 1t contains increases of
about 100000 over the appropria-

The more important addition in the
Senate include s225,000 for the tariff

toms revenues, 100000 for the pre-
vention of the bubonic plague, $780,

$4,000 for National park improve

less than the estimates submitted to
Congress and s26,000.Ooo less than the
same bill last year
An amendment carrying $4,000 for

10000 Subjects, Outside Palace Gates.
Pay Last Homage to Their
Remarkable Sovereign.

Toxic: Mutsuhito. for forty-four
yeara Emperor of Japan, died at 12:43
O'Clock Monday morning. Yosihito
MatsG-No-Hiya reigns under the for
mula provided by the Constitution pro-
mulgated by Mutsuhito, the King is
dead; long live the King"
Mutsuhito, who was the 21st EN-
peror of Japan, passed gently away.
He had ben unconscious for many
hours, prior to his death, and the EN-
press, the Crown Prince and the most
prominent officials of the household
and Government were at the bedside.
Maruko, now Dowager Empress,
yields to Princess Sadako, the young
Empress who is the mother of three
sons, Of whom the eldest is Mirchito,
because of her untiring vigil in the
sickroom, where she remained contin-
uously for ten days. Even on the last
day she pitlfully begged the physicians
for short respite for the dying EN-
peror.
The outcome was inevitable from
J.
Death was due to acute nephritis. This
was complicated by diabetis and an
Intestinal affection. AS is usuel in such
cases, the patient on occasions showed
marked signs OF Improvement, follow
ed by relapse. Since July rs the con-
ditions Of the Emperor gradually be-
came worse with high fever, wear and
irregular pulse and shallow respira-
ton.
When the physicians recognized the
hopelessness OF the case, every prep
aration was made OF the end. The
Imperial Princes, the Ministers and
notabilities were summoned to the pal
ace and remained in the outer rooms
for twenty-four hours. A few OF the
oldest, who have been closely asso-
ciated with the government of the en-
pire, were permitted To see the EN-.
peror, while the public, contrary to
custom, was taken into the confidence
Of the physicians. who issued bulletins
hourly. giving details of the progress
OF the disease. Even the last an
Inducements was made within an
hour.
At the end upward of 10000 subjects
silently paid their last homage outside
the palace gates. 1t was a momentory
scene when messengers silently min
gled with the crowds and scattered
and posted announcements of the EN-
peror's death. Deep emotion swept
the multitude, but there was no evil
dence of excitement. The only sound
was long drawn sigh of sorrow.
