IMPOSING OBSEQUIES.

Funeral of President Carnot at Paris.

Four Million Francs For Flowers—Floral Tributes From AH tlie Corwned Iloads of Kitrojie.

The remains of the late President Carnot were deposited in the Pantheon at Paris, Sunday. Tho funeral was made ihe occasion for one of tho most remarkable civic and military displays in the history of France. Crowds began to gather ilong the Champs Elvsees, the Rue de Rivoli and about the streets on the Lie do taCite from early Saturday evening. People camped all night, quiet and mournful, discussing the tragedy and cursing the assassin. By 3 o'clock a. m. the streets along the route were crowded, and by 6 a'clock the Place de la Concorde was black with people. The housetops, windows and balconies of every house along the line of march and every other point of vantage, was occupied, fabulous sums of money having been paid for the use of tho houses, windows and balconies from which to view the funeral procession. A41 classes of people—young and old, rich and poor, crowded to the funeral from all parts of Paris and from every department of France.

The arrival of President CasimerPerier was the occasion of a remarkable demonstration, as his presence had not been expected, being contrary to precedent.

At 10:25 tho procession moved toward the cathedral of Notre Dame. The view from the roof tops along the Champs Elysee was superb. The sun shone brilliantly on glittering uniforms of the officers as the procession marched between the long avenue of trees with its immense bordering of multitudes of sight seers on both sides. Along tho Rue de Rivoli, the trailings and gardens, the Tuiileries, the statues, the kiosks, lamp posts and every thing capable of supporting a sightseer were taken advantage of by all who were lucky enough to obtain standing or holding room upon such points of vantage.

The procession reached the cathedral at noon. The Archbishop of Paris officiated at tho removal of the casket and preceded the bier up the aisle. Before pronouncing the absolution the archbishop delivered an allocution. Orations were delivered by by Premier Dupuy and President Challemel Lacour.

Paris is a city of great funerals, but the funeral of President Carnot eclipsed them all. It is estimated that 4,00.),000 francs were expended for flowers. At the palace the court yard was filled with wreaths and palisades were set up in rows in the garden to support the wreaths, and along the borders of the turf of the ground was entirely hidden with these floral emblems. The wreaths sent by Queen Victoria, the Czar, King Humbert, the Prince of Wales, Emperor William, Queen Christiana. King Christian and other sovereigns were placed besides President Casimir-Perier's floral tribute. Queen Victoria's wreath was sent over by a special official of her majesty's household, who appeared in full court dress, besides the British ambassador, the marquis of DulTerin and Ava at tho funeral. The czar's wreath was of mauve and cream colored orchids, and cost 5,000 francs. It was made in Paris. Tho wreath sent by Pres'dent Casimir-Perier was of red roses and was borne immediately before the hearse by four of the Elysee attendants in black suits and wearing tri-colored cockades in their hats.

The ceremonies were conclude! at 5:3C p. m. The heat was intense and hundreds of people fainted in the crowds and were removed with difficulty to places of safety.

ZIMiirs i'AIlDMR."

Banker Paris Found Gulty at Frankfort.

The case of John W. Paris, the Greentown banker, who attained notoriety by failing last year, in connection with Z:mri Dwiggins, taken from Howard county to Frankfort on a change of venue, was given to tho jury. Thursday. After deliberating one hour the jury returned the following verdict: "We. the jurv, find the defendant guilty of false pretenses and affix the penalty at six years in the State's prison and a fine of 51.000." Mr. Paris received the sentence with a slight smile and I not for a second did the remarkable coolness which has marked his course during the trial desert him. His wife, who has been constantly by his side during tho en tiro trial, bore up bravely, but it was plain to be seen that her heart was breaking. After the jury had been polled Attorney Hayless filed a motion for a new trial, which will be argued next Monday, pending which the defendant was released on his old bond, which is 53,000. The conviction on false pretenses was a great surprise to Mr. Paris and his attorneys, as well as to everybody else.

A Darty of Howard county farmers whe had come down to attend the trial, heard the verdict while eating their dinner on the lawn of the court house. They were so hilarious over it that they adjourned en masse to the nearest soda fountain and drank to the health of the jury.

The news of the verdict was received with great satisfaction at Kokomo. It is believed that ex-(!overnor Chase, now under indictment in Howard county, will also be convicted when tried on the same count of "false pretenses." Gov. Chase was a director in the Greentown bank and it was largely through his influence that farmers deposited their money in the rotten institution.

TO ARMS!

Indiana Militia May Take Airiiin

the Field

The Pullman strike assumed alarming symptoms at Hammond, Friday. Strikers spiked switches and refused to allow any trains having Pullman cars to proceed. I United States Marshal Hawkins served a I warrant, issued by Judge Baker, upon I Alexander Shields, [(resident of the IlamI mond branch of the American Railway

Union, and three strikers, Patrick Sexton, John llescoe and Walter St. John. These I men are charged with interfering with trains carrying the United States mail.

They were taken to Indianapolis, Friday night, for trial. Sheriff Fredericks wired Governor Matthews that he was unable to prevent lawless acts by strikers, and asked that troops be at once sent to preserve order. Governor Matthews, in an interview, late Friday night, stated that he had not decided on his plan of action. "The situation in Lake county," ho said, "will have to assume si.ch serious proportions that the local authorities are absolutely unable, to cope with it before State troops are sent. The action of the strikers at Hammond has been such as to bring them into conflict wit.ii the federal authorities, and it is possible that the United States marshals may be able to control tliir situation. I have been in correspondence with the Lake county authorities, and I am convinced that the situation has a very threatening aspect at this time, but I will have to be fully convinced that the sheriff is wholly powerless to protect property and prevent lawlessness before I move the State troops into Lake county."

Late Friday evening District Attorney Burke at Indianapolis received a telegram from United States Attorney General Olney calling his attention to the laws providing for tho arrest of any and all persons interfering with tlie transportations of United States mails, and giving him positive instructions regarding the enforcement of all such laws. The instruction to the district attorney included an order to the United States marshal to sup ply himself with ail the deputies needed, and to swear in posses of citizens if neces sary,
