A dozen or more agitators, d by Jim Morarity, a Big Four Lilian, entered the yards as YardVr Riley's men were preparing to attach a Yandalia Pullman to the switch engine. The agitators undertook to diasuad' tiie yardmen from going ahead with the work but failed. The engine was signaled, backed down against the Pullman, but the engineer, at the order of one of the strikers, put on steam and null'd away before the couplingpin could be slipped into place. A moment later the car was surrounded and the pin secreted. A squad of police arrived on the scene and quieted the men for the time being. The Yandalia train was finally gotten out of the station.

AN IMPOSING PROCESSION. ObM’quU'n of M. Carnot the Most Memorable Ever Held In France Interred In the Fantheon Heaide 1IU Grandfather'** Hedy—Services at New York and Washington—Foul Assassination In Italy. Paris, July 2.—The remains of the late President Carnot were deposited in the Pantheon yesterday by the side of the remains of his grandfather. Lazare Carnot, the “Organizer of Victory.” The funeral was made the occasion for one of the most remarkable civic and military displays in the history of France. The heat was tropical, but there were mitigating zephyrs. Over 2,000,000 people must have crowded into the main thoroughfares by which the funeral procession accompanying the remains of the late president passed to the Pantheon. Paris is a city of great funerals. Those of Prince Jerome Bonaparte and Victor Noir, the journalist who was shot and killed by Prince Pierre Bonaparte; the funeral of President Thiers, Louis Blanck, Gambetta and Victor Hugo were never to be forgotten sights. National Feeling; Manifested. But the funeral of President Carnot eclipsed them all. One saw in it a manifestation of national feeling in the streets and at the Pantheon, which is a secularized church built in the irreverent Eight-
eenth century.
At Notre Dame there were deep tones of Christian emotion. The church lent all the beautiful poetry of its ceremonial to the obsequies. The harps and violins in tiie organ loft seemed to pierce the heaven with their tones in the supplica-
tory passages.
'fhe ceremonial at the Pantheon was pagan and laic and appealed merely to the eye and intellect. It was the apotheosis ot the virtues and sensibilities of Carnot. the most simple, accessible and affable of French citizens, whose seat in the domestic circle was an example to

There is : no agreement to this effect, but Democratic and Republican senators generally express the opinion that this can be accomplished.

Neb., July 2.—Last night two masked men took possession of the streets and held up everybody who came along. A young man named Roberts was caught first and searched. He had but 15 cents in money and a watch. J. A. Fredericks, a merchant, escaped by running. The robbers kept Roberts a prisoner and marched him along while they patroled the streets looking for victims. Len Rnndstrom, a business man, and Elmer E. Drummond, an Adams Express messenger, were riding by on bicycles when they were ordered to halt and hold up their hands. Rundstrom complied with the order, but Drummond did not stop and was shot. He fell from his wheel and died in a moment. While one robber stood guard the other searched Roundstrom and then Drummond’s bod> and secured #5, a revolver and a watch. They then ran off. Owing to the darkness it was impossible to ob tain a sufficient description of them. Sheriff Kunsden and a posse of 50 men are on the trail of the men and hopes to overtake them. NEWS IN GENERAL.

Some of the amendments yet to lie in-

Much curiosity is felt over the attitude of the Populists on the sugar schedule. They say that whatever they may do they will do nothing

Leghorn, July 2.—A crime somewhat resembling the murder of President Carnot was committed in this city yesterday. While Signor Bandi, director of The Gazetta Livernesse, was entering his carriage he was set upon by a man whom it was subsequently learned was an anarchist, who drew a knife and stabbed him in the abdomen. Signor Bandi was at once attended by physicians, who decided that the only hope of saving his life was to perform the operation of laparotomy. This was done, but

Mr. Thane said one of the objects of the union was to afford additional protection to presidents of the United States. He wanted permission to deliver a patriotic address from the steps of the capitol on July 4. The two got no further than the door, however, and went away apparently satisfied when the usher told them the president was busy and that the matter would be brought to his attention.
