Six Black Horses to Draw
Hearse at Dead of Night

Vienna, Nov. % (via London, Nov.
23).-Death came TO Emperor Francis
Joseph as sleep to a child, while the
sovereign was reclining in an armchair
in what he called his workroom. His
strength had rapidly been ebbing from
2 o'clock in the afternoon of yesterday,
but he refused to take to his bed.
After o'clock he began gradually to
lose consciousness and went to the end
without uttering another word, resting
peacefully in his chair, with his hands
folded as If he were in prayer.
This afternoon a death mask Of the
Emperor was taken as a preliminary 10
the embalming of the body and its re-
moval to the Hofburg, where it will lie
in state. The heart will be sealed in a
silver cup, while the intestines, lungs
and stomach will be placed in a copper
urn.
The body must be transferred from
the Schoenbrunn Palace to the Hof-
burg in the dead Of night, drawn by six
black horses. The cortege will be &C
companied by torchbearers, and the
outriders will also carry torches.
After them will come a squadron OF
cavalry and a part of the mounted
guard. The hearse will be preceded by
the court chamberlains in carriages
drawn each by six horses. After the
hearse will come a carriage containing
the heart in its silver cup, followed by
officers of the body guard, palace Off
Gals and soldiers.
New Emperor Meets Cortege
The cortege will move through sew
eral of the principal thoroughfares Of
Vienna and be met by Emperor
Charles and the archdukes at the Black
Eagle Stairs, whence they will accom-
pany the body into the chapel of the
Hofburg, where it will lie in state and
be viewed by the public.
Francis Joseph will be laid to rest in
the imperial vaults in the Capuchin
Church, where are the tombs Of his
predecessors On the day Of the funeral
the monarchy will go into mourning
for a period Of six months, divided into
three equal portions of the deepest
mourning, deep mourning and light
mourning.
An order by the new Emperor, not q.
yet promulgated, will fix the duration
Of the court mourning and also the
period during which the theatres and
other places of amusement shall re-
main closed.
To-day the Emperor's body lies on
the iron bedstead on which he slept
for the last two years. Upon the cover
let lies a great garland Of flowers
placed there by the Emperor's daugh
ter, Archduchess Marie Valerie.
The Emperor's last will and tesla
ment, opened to-day, was made several
wears ago. 1t disposes of the En-.
peror's private means and contains
many large requests.
