THE GREAT CITY DRAPED IN BLACK.
in Imposing Frooemlon Escort* the Body to the Cathedral, Where a Requlem Mam li Colebrated.
Mosoow, Nov. 12.—The imperial funeral party, with the body of Alexander III., arrived here Sunday. But for the heavy folds of black which hung high and low on all walls, a person would have thought that the Crowd* thronging every corner and open spaoe had come to celebrate a national holiday rather than to lament the death oi a powerful monarch. 6uoh ceaseless, universal activity and •noh enormous numbers of peasants, tourists and soldiers had not been •een here slnoe the coronation of Alexander III. more than ten years ago.
Draping the City.
Ten thousand men worked all night to complete the draping of the city. More than a thousand men were emloyed In paving with cobblestones he streets through which the body was to past They laid 8tf miles of pavement and soattered over it layers of •and to smother the rattling of carriages and the clatter of oavalry. The route was marked not only by the bewly laid pavement, but also by the density of the blaok and white drapery Which oovered the fronts of the building*.
Fnneral Train Arrive#.
The train with the body arrived at 10:40 o'clock. Cfcar Nicholas II. was saluted as soon as he alighted by Grand Duke Serglus, the metropolitan of Moscow and Kolomna, the higher olergy, the commandant and oivil governor, members of the oourt, officials of the court, the ohlef nobility to the third class, the mayor, many generals and other offloers. All stood bareheaded. The procession was then formed In groups as had been arranged and the generals carried the coffin to the dais in the temporary ehapel near the station. Four of them removed the pall and the metropolitan read a short service. The four generals who had removed the pall bore the coffin slowly to the funeral oar In the station yard.
The Cortege Starts.
•mid the tolling of a thousand bells the head of the huge column started oil toward the Bed Gate. The head of the oolumn was made up of troops (mounted and on foot), oourt lackeys esoorting many historio standards, a deputation of city officers, numerous societies and delegations of merchants, shopkeepers, working-men and peasants, all marching abreasti the mayor of Moscow and the mayors of all other towns In the government of Mosoow noblemen, conspicuous citizens and head marshals all three abreast and In heavy mourning.
Tbe Funeral Car.
The funeral car was drawn by eight horses led by eight major generals. The tassels of the oanopy were held by four adjutant generals flanked by sixty cadets bearing torches. Directly behind them rode Emperor Nloholas alone, looking pale but resolute. His uniform was half hidden In crepe.
Royal Mourners.
The order was them Count WoronlonoSDachekoff, minister of the imperial court the commandant of the guards and eight adjutant generals the prince of Wales, alone 1 the Grand Duke Mlohael Nioolaievltch, the Grand Duke Serglus, the Grand Duke Alexander Mlohaelvltoh, the king of Greeoe, Prinoe Alexander Petrovitch and the duke of Oldenburg, escorted by adjutant generals the Moscow division of grenadiers.
In the first carriage behind the grenadiers rode the czarina, Prlnoess Alii ol Hesse and Grand Duchess Xenia. The carriage was flanked with esquires, and behind It walked two Cossaoks. The queen of Greeoe, Grand Duohess Elizabeth Feodorovna and the prlnoess of Wales occupied the aeoond carriage.
The Reverent Fopulaoe.
The windows and walks from the station to the Kremlin were thronged with silent, reverent crowds. Nobody spoke above a whisper and not a voice it is believed, was heard above the tread of the passing oolumn. All the men removed their hats the moment the funeral oar came in sight and remained uncovered for half or threequarters of an hour. Dragoons were stationed in an unbroken line on one side of the entire route.
Reqalftm Has* Celebrated.
The metropolitan and higher clergy awaited the body at the door of the cathedral of the Archangel Michael. They walked before it to the great crimson dais under the gold and silver canopy in the middle of the building. Generals of the army placed the coffin On the dais and removed the pall. The members of the Imperial family gathered between the gorgeous pillars at the foot of the ooffin and listened In silence, broken only by sobs, to the reading of the solemn mass for the dead. Tbe service closed with muslo.
LjlD| In State.
The Imperial family and their attendants then retired to the palaoe within the kTemlln and the persons holding tickets were admitted to the cathedral. They passed round the dais slowly, looking at the dead czar's face. After them came people of all sorts, admitted in the Order diotated by rank. Strange scenes were witnessed as this mixed throng filed past the oofiln. Men and women wept, crossed themselves,

The peasants, In their strange and varied costumes, at midnight were still standing in long lines in a dozen streets, awaiting patiently, silently and reverently their turn to show their affeotion for the Ijitt-le Father.

AT ANAROHY'-S GRAVE.
Memorial get lues at the Tombs of Fx sons and HI* Fellows. CHICAGO, NOV. IS.—Fifteen hundred anarohlsts went out to Waldheim Sunday afternoon to attend a demonstration in memory of 8)ies, Parsons, Flsoher, Lingg and Engel who were executed for the part which they took in the Haymarket riot. Herr Most addressed the assemblage. About 1,000 of the red bedecked men paraded the streets and marched to the Wisconsin Central depot, where they boarded a train of twelve oars. The train was wrecked, however, at Fortieth street, and the passengers had some difficulty in reaching their destination.
The engine left the track at an open swith, and Is a total wreck, together with the front cars of the train. The engineer and fireman jumped, but the former received internal Injuries from which he may die.
The burying ground was finally reached and wreaths of flowers, mostly red In color, were placed on the graves of the five dead anarchists.
The first speech of the day was made by E. M. Qulnn, and for an anarchistic discourse was exceedingly mild. His remarks were very quietly reoelved. The crowd was cautioned to keep quiet, but forgot Itself when Herr Most, the New York agitator, appeared. Herr Most's style seemed to take well and prolonged applause was frequent. His remarks were of a somewhat rabid character.
The speaking of Herr Most In Chicago has caused more than a little trouble in anarchistic circles. One faction did not want him and held a separate memorial in the West Side Turner hall. Muoh bad feeling has been created, and It Is believed that a permanent split has been oaused In the societies of anarchism.

a loss of many thousand dollars. In the destruction is Included plantations with houses, negro quarters, growing crops, horses and mules. While so far no lives are reported lost, there have been a number of narrow escapes from death. Mississippi oounty has suffered most. There are extensive forests of valuable pine and hard timber in that county, and these have been swept away, together with everything of a combustible nature. On the plantation adjacent hundreds of acres of ungathered cotton have added fuel to the flames, leaving nothing but a stretoh of blackened fields. Houses and other buildings have been laid waste. Three or four men who were fighting fire on the Alcorn plantation were encircled bv flames and escaped by dashing through them.
