 The Hofburg chapel is very small

 persons and will prove utterly in adequate for such a ceremony as that | of tomorrow. All the seats have been
 removed and the walls and floors arc covered with black cloth On one of
 the walls hangs an escutcheon con- sisting of the archdukes arms. It is
 suTnnounted by silver sconces with
 lighted candles. The arms of the duchess similarly adorn the opposits l | wall
 , Silver candlesticks holding lighted
 wax tapers surround the catafalque at | the foot of which are cushions bear ing the archduke's crown and the Aus trian archducal two-pointed hat, his ) generals plumed hat and sword and , all his orders and decorations.
 At the foot of the coffin of the duchess repose her orders, a pair of long white kid gloves an dher fan, in accordance with the Austrian cus-
 tom.
 Crowds Stand Bareheaded. |, The only member of the Imperial ' family who attended the ceremony tonight was Archduke Charles Fran-
 cis Joseph, now heir to the throne. who at the last moment decided to 20 to the station to meet the body ! Immense crowds gathered around the station and along the whole route to . the Hofburg standing bareheaded and
 in profound silence as the cortege . passed.
 1t was officially announced tonight, |. to the disappointment of the Viennese ' populace, that an attack of lumbago
 would prevent the German emperor
 from attending the funeral. The anti-Servian agitation. which !; is becoming an exceedingly dangerous : symptom, shows no sign of aoattng. Even while the funeral curtege wes
 on it's way to-the Hofou-g, hundreds
 of excited students were engaged in c . desperate struggle with the police to , reach the Servian legation. within : three blocks of the procession Srons , forces of mounted and foot guards protect all approaches to the legation
 ever since the serious demonstration
 on Tuesday, and when it was seen , that the attack would be renewed, 500 |, achievements were hastily summon , ed. They rushed to the scene and ths crowd hooted and yelled but the po-
 lice succeeded in controlling the sit
 uation: and finally after greai struggle, dispersed the students.
