Senator Hearst’s Funeral Gulniinates in a Scandal. MORE LIKE AN EXCURSION. All the Indications Pointed to Having Such a. Rousing Good Time that Senator Stanford Detached His Private Car from the Train. WASHINGTON, March 11.~’.l‘he funeral train which left this city on Saturday last, bearing the remains of Senator Hearst, 01 California, was more in the nature of an excursion than anything else, and there has been a great deal of unpleasant gossip in Washington concerning it. This has resulted from the action of Senator Stan- ford. In the periods during which Sena. tors Stanford and Hearst served together they formed a strong personal attach- ment, and there was 116 more sincere mourner at the deathbed than the former. Asan additional mark of respect to the family Senator Stanford ordered his pri- vate car to W’ashington, so that it could be used when the remains were taken to California. As is well known, all these funeral par- ties under congressional direction are more or less of a picnic. When the ser- geant—at—arms of the senate was arranging for the Hearst obsequies he was over whelmed with applications to include in the party as mourners friends of certain senators. These parties had not the re- motest interest in the matter further than that they desired a free trip to California, with refreshments and wines on tap at the government expense. These applications were pressed with so much‘.persistency that a large party was arranged. Nine Pullman coaches, beside those provided for the family and the congressional com- mittee, were attached to the train, and they were filled with the friends of sena- tors who had a “pull.” Senator Stanford Indignant. On Saturday when Senator Stanford reached the station from which the train was about to depart he discovered that the occasion for the most part was not one of mourning. Airily dressed relatives 01 senators occupied sections in the long train of Pullmans, and there was a gen- eral air of good humor about the affair that indicated expectations of a rousing good time. The senator was really shocked at the spirit of the alleged mourners, and to show his disgust at the condition of af- fairs he ordered the couplings between his own car and the rest of the train to be loosened. As the train steamed out of the station the Stanford car was left standing in the shed. Mr. Stanford will attend the funeral in California, but he did not care to go across the continent with a party of pokei playing and wine drinking high rollers, who were supposed to be mourning for his dead friend. The widow of the dead senator is a great stickler for social proprieties. Before the congressional committees were appointed to accompany the remains the names 01 several senators and members were sub- mitted to her for approval. She insisted that they all be persons distinguished in social as well as public life, and it took a great deal of revision to make the commit tees finally acceptable to the widow. If Representative Oates, of Alabama, can have his way, there will be an end put to the expensive congressional funerals which mark each session of congress. In speaking of these matters Tuesday after- noon lie said: . “’hut They Cost. I am glad that there will be a large con- tingent of new members in the next house. They will come here unfettered by the customs and traditions of the past in re- gard to certain practices that have been followed in every congress heretofore, The funeral excursions which are indulged in when a member or senator dies are absurd, ridiculous and extravagant. Every one knows that there’should be a reform in this matter, but there is a delicacy about approaching it. I think when our farmer friends come here next fall with their practical ideas and their pledges to assist in securing economy in expenditures they will make many changes. It is estimated that the funeral of the late Senator Hearst will cost the govern- ment more than $100,000. This estimate cannot be far wrong, for the funeral of ' Senator Miller, of California, drained the contingent fund of the senate of $80,000, and it was a modest funeral compared to those we have had recently. Senator Beck, of Kentucky, was buried at an expense to the government of $52,000. N 0 one would probably have protested more at such ex- travagance than the senator himself, had he been in the flesh. Now, $100,000 would put up a good pub- lic building in some one of the thousand places needing such an accommodation, and I do not think any reasonable man can defend the practice of these expensive congressional funerals when there are so many public necessities uii provided for. A Sensational Duel. SAN DlEGO, Cal, March 11.—The partic- ulars of the killing of William Trimmer at El Caj on by Frank Coto are quite sen— sational. Trimmer had been courting Coto’s sister, but her relatives objected to his attentions to the girl. The young men met yesterday, and Coto forbade Trimmer to call on his sister again. They quarreled, and the result was an arrangement to fight a duel at twenty paces. When the required distance was stepped off both began firing. After a few shots Trimmer fell dead. Cot-o received severe wounds in the arm and back. He has been arrested and is now in jail awaiting the action of the coroner’s Jury. Bosses and Journeymeii Agree. PHILADELPHIA, March 11.—The confer- ence between the Bricklayers’ company (employers) and the Journeyman Brick— layers’ association has result-ed in an agree— ment. The men are to receive forty—five cents an hour and will be paid sixty-seven cents an hour for overtime and Sunday work. For six months of the year, April to October, nine hours shall constitute a day’s work, while for the other six months an eight hour day will be in force. ' Catholic Legion in Session. BROOKLYN, March 11.—About twenty delegates representing as many state coun- cils and composing the supreme council of the Catholic Benevolent Legion convened in annual session at the Legion lieadquar ters here Tuesday The first business taken under consideration was the amend— ment of certain portions of the constitu- tion. , 1 COLORADO’S SENATORS TALK. Teller Jumps on “’all Street—\Vhat a Southern Senator Told \Volcott. CHICAGO, March 11.—EX Secretary Teller now United States senator from Colorado. was at the Grand Pacific hotel for a short time yesterday on his way home. The sen» ator talked freely in regard to the silvei question, and believed that no political party could in the future afford to embody a plank in its platform favoring demoneti. zation of silver. \Vhile the east generally failed to favor it, he believed the reason was obvious; or, rather, there were twc reasons—first, the fear of Wall street, and second, the knowledge that eastern cap italists had in the past fifteen years, by reason of the advance in gold, earned not less than 1 per cent. a year without labor or desert on their part. The day has gone by when either “I all street or the entire population of the east can dictate to the west in a matter of simple justice. The Silver Question the Great Issue. .NEw YORK, March 11.—Senator Wolcott, of Colorado, noted for his advocacy ‘of free coinage, was at the Gilsey House Tuesday. At all times he is happy looking, and has a breezy western way peculiarly captivat ing. A reporter asked him if he thought the silver question would be the issue in 1802. He said: “In my judgment it will be the predomi- nating factor in the campaign ' of 1802. The west and the soutli,I think, will stand together on the silv ' uestiou.” "Has rim-.1 any favo ‘ L'esi em “I think the party “ _ - the nomi- nee, whomsoever he maybe. It is quite early to cast political horoscopes.” “Do you think the Democrats will noni- inate Mr. Cleveland for the presidency in 1802?" “I cannot tell, but I. heard a certain southern senator say that if Mr. Cleveland was the candidate next year his state would give 50,000 majority against the ex- president on account- of his silver letter. This was an influential and for seeing senator, and generally outspoken in his views. I do not care to give his name.” your state e) The Kidder-Peabody Reorganization. Bos'i'ox, March ll.——The Journal quotes Mr. O. \V. Peabody as saying in regard to the New York report that the house 01 Kidder, Peabody Sc Co. will be reorganized. the New York office cut off from the ROS» ton office and the firm of Baring, Magoun & C0. organized to carry on business in New York: “All I can say is that there is no authority for any such statement. I1 there is any reorganization of the firm, and the existing relations between the Boston and New York branches are dissolved, the public will be informed of the fact. \V( will notify the newspapers. Beyond that I can say nothing. If there have been no- gotiations looking to such a change it is a private matter concerning only the mem- bers of the firm. It is pi‘eiiiature to as- sume that any such plan is about to be carried out.” That Buried Treasure. SAN FRANCISCO, March 11.—A dispatch from ‘Vilkesbarre, which stated that the First National bank of Pittston had re ceivcd a letter telling of treasure belong- in g to the late King Alphonso, which was buried in Lucerne county, Pa., was seen by a gentleman of: this city, who says he re- ceived a letter almost exactly like it twc years ago from Lagunta, near Valencia Spain. The writer wanted the gentleman to send him 3,000 francs for necessary ex- penses and the papers telling where tho treasure was to be found would be sent him. The gentleman says he took no no- tice of the letter, as he thought it- was a mere swindle. A Fund for “lindom’s Family. N1~1w YORK, March 11.—“Then Secretary \Vindom died, owing to unfortunate iii- vestments, his personal affairs were not in so prosperous a condition as was generally supposed. In view of this fact some 01 Mr. \Vindom’s friends and admirers in New York thought it becoming that the family of so good a public servant should have some testimonial of the esteem ii: which be was held. New York bankers started the movement privately among themselves three weeks ago, and $50,00C has been subscribed, which will be pre sented to the family. Tolcdo’s Mysterious Suicide. TOLEDO, March 11.—The mystery of the suicide at the Boody House is slowly being unraveled. Last evening the body was identified by Mr. Gaslie, a lumber mer- chant, as that of a young man living in Detroit, to whom he was introduced a week ago by Mr. Lodge, a Detroit lawyer. Lodge told Gashe that the man was an opium fiend, and that a short time ago he had while under the influence of the drug come into his (Lodge’s) office in Detroit, declaring that he would murder some one and kill himself. The Manueary Heresy Case. CLEVELAND, March 11.—There is serious disagreement. among the members of the ec- clesiastical court, which has the MacQuea- ry heresy case under advisement.

Proceedings in the Senate and in ' Assembly. ALBANY, March 11.—In the senate the journal had scarcely been finished this morning when Mr. Laughlin got a res- olution to the desk appointing Edward Drew, of Buffalo, the new extra clerk for the canal committee.

The bill was passed by a vote of 100 to l2. A BASEBALL SENSATION. Al J olinson Creates Constcrnation in the ‘ Am lean Association. , - 11.—A thunderbolt ave created -. han the an- nouncemen o the Association .delegates last night that Al Johnson had sold out his interest in the Cincinnati club to the National league. There was a little group assembled in the corridors of the Burnet House shortly before the hour of midnight. They were all in a happy frame of mind, as they had received news early in the evening that the League agent had failed with Johnson, and they naturally felt secure in their po- sition and confident of success in the fight with the old organization. A few of them at first refused to credit the report. ‘ If the deal had been consummated earlier in the day it would not have occasioned so much surprise, but they all felt secure in the thought that the League had failed to treat with the big Brotherhood chief. “Nothing ought to surprise me,” re- marked Julian B. Hart, “but still I be- lieved that Johnson would remain firm in his resolve and fight out the issue with the League in this city. No Support for Either Irish Faction. LOUIserLE, March 11.—The Emerald branch of the Irish Land league met last night and adopted a resolution to the efiect that they would give no money or other aid to either of the factions of the National party in Great Britain. They recommend- ed that other branches of the league in the United States, Canada and Australia take similar action. The Locked Out Clothing Cutters. ROCHESTER, N. Y., Mai-ch 11.—There. is apparently no change in the situation of the locked out clothing cutters. A few of the cutters it is reported have left the city and some are preparing to leave.
