LEGHORN, July 1. A crime somewhat resembling the murdering of President Carnot was committed in this city to-day. As Signor Badi. director of the Gazetta LiverHesse, was entering his carriage at 8 o'clock this morning 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 Randi . was at once attended by physicians, who decided that the only hope of savins his life was to perform the operation of laparotomy. This was done, but Signor Eandl died a short time afterward. Prime Minister Crispl was questioned in the Chamber of Deputies in regard to the murder. He stated that Signor Eandl had been stabbed and killed by an Anarchist owing to the articles that had appeared in his paper against anarchism. Signor Bandl was a veteran soldier. He fought at Marshal and Calatiflml. Several Deputies followed the Prime Minister In speeches ulogizlng the deceased. The murder has caused a great sensation throughout Italy, and the fesling against the Anarchists has been greatly intensified. The blow delivered by the assassin caused the dagger to penetrate the liver, and the similarity of the wound to that which killed Carnot was remarked upon by the victim shortly before his death. As yet the murderer has not been captured. He was seen after the deed to run to a carriage, in which were sitting two men. who were apparently waiting for him. Jle Jumped Into the carriage, the horses were lashed Into a gallop and the thre? men escaped before any attempt could be made to stop them.

She has summoned the King of Corea to relinquish Chinese ' suzerainty, to declare his Independence, to accept Japanese protection and to dismiss the Chinese resident.

HOMAGE TO A MARTYR
All France Unites in Honoring the Murdered President Sadi-Carnot's Funeral Made the Occasion of a Great Display of Sorrow by the People of All Classes. AX IMPOSING PliOCESSIOX With Services at Notre Dame and Orations at the Pantheon. Millions of Francs Spent for Flowers and Mourning EmblemsScenes at the Elysee and in the Streets. (Copyrighted, 1S34, by the Associated Press.) PARIS, July 1. The heat to-day was tropical, but there were mitigating zephyrs. Over two millions of people must have crowded into the main thoroughfares by which the funeral procession accompanying the remains of the late President Carnot to the Pantheon passed. Paris Is a city of fereat funerals. Those of Prince Jerome Ronavarte and Victor Nolr, the journalist, who was shot and killed by Prince Pierre Ronaparte, the funeral of President Thiers, Louis Blanc, Gambetta and Victor Hugo were never-to-Ke-forgotten sights. 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 eighteenth century; It was pagan and treated death with airy levity. At Notre Dame there were deep tones of Christian emotion. The church lent all the beautiful poetry of its ceremonial to the obsequies, but the bells of the cathedral did not ring out a dirge In concert with the muffled drums, the bugles and other wind instruments. The harps and J
violins in the organ loft seemed to pierce the heaven with their tones in the supplicatory passages. Fifteen bishops, whose esteem President Carnot had won in the course of his many state visits to cathedral towns, aided in the celebration. The ceremonial at the Pantheon was pagan and laic and .appealed merely to the eye and intellect. It was the apotheosis of 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 every family and who preached by the practice of republican virtues. The universal heart throb which the tidings of his death occasioned had, however, died out during the past week. Eight days of deep mourning was more than France could bear, and to a certain degree a holiday feeling prevailed to-day at the funeral. People ordered wreaths while they were genuine mourners and they bore them in the cortege today in a holiday mood. , The French are a saving people and Americans are apt to charge them with fceing mean. They lavished money on today's funeral rites. The obsequies at Notre Dame and arrangement of the Pantheon cost a very large sum of money, and it has been said that millions of francs have been spent In Paris alone in orders for floral wreaths. The heaviest spender in view of its size was Mustapha, the European suburb of Algiers. Its wreaths, for it sent many, were drawn on a wagon draped in black and silvered cloth and drawn by sis caparisoned horses. What the provincials spent on wreaths is incalculable. On Thursday, Friday and Saturday and this morning the thoroughfares leading to the Elysee Palace resembled a flower tournament. There were open carriages and railway wagons laden with such emblems, not a few of which were three and four yards In diameter. Vehicles screamed towards the palace without interruption and all traffic save that of the filled and wreath-laden carriages, etc., was suspended. AT THE PALACE. At the palace the courtyard was filled with wreaths, and palisades were set up In rows in th? garden to support the wreaths, and along the borders the turf of the grounds 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 beside President Casimir-Perier's floral tribute. Queen Victoria's wreath was sent over by a special officer of her Majesty's household, who appeared in full court dress, besides the British embassador, the Manpiis Dufferin and Ava, at the funeral to-day. The Czar's wreath was of mauve and cream-colored orchids, and cost 5,10 francs. It was made in Paris. The wreath sent by President Casimir-Perier was of red roses, and was borne immediately before the hearse by four of the Elysee attendants in black suits and wearing tricolored cockades in their hats. The wreath of the Russian embassador, Baron Von Mohrenheim, was of orchids of every color intfrmingled with white, black and yellow ribbons twisted in torsade. King Humbert's offering contained more violet ribbon than flowers. On it was inscribed, "Urnberto I. re d'ltalia." Cardinal Richard, the Archbishop of Paris, sent a wreath of white lilies and gardenias bordered with passion flowers. The tribute of the Chamber of Deputies was an Immense floral wreath, which was carried on a wagon drawn by six caparisoned horses, both the vehicles and the horses being draped with black, silver-spangled cloth. The widow, Mme. Carnot, was taken last night to see the seried lines of wreaths In the courtyard, in the garden and on the verandas. She wept plenteously. It all seemed a vain show, and yet she said s-he could not but feel de?ply grateful for the esteem, respect and affection it showed for the late President. It was comforting to think that the example of his unassuming virtues was appreciated by the whole nation without respect ti creed and classes. The palace courtyard, where the embassadors and official deputations met to-day, was entirely hung in black, ant fine art was shown In the arrangement of the drapery. The heavy cloth fell in rigidly stiff lines. The mass on the veranda was concealed by other festooned stuffs looped up in valances, and light textiles, seemingly of black gar.se, were arranged diagonally scarf wise. All arond the eaves ran a deep, horizontal band, which had the effect of Venetian guipure over black. Over the Verandah Hall, which was kept open in order to show the casket, was a shield with the letters "K. F." lEepublique Francalse.) Around this shield were groups of eleven tri-colored flags caught up at the end by bows of crape at the flagstaff. A feature which was universally noticeable In all the streets through which the cortege passed were the lighted lamps veiied with crape. Just as in the court yard of the executive palace, the crowning of the edifice in the center of the palace, over the hall, was another shield of colossal proKrtions, having cn it a painting of the grand cross of the legion of Honor, wreathed with laurels. More tucked-up flags were grouped around this ornament, the bright tones of which were softened by a diagonal scarf placed across it and spangled with stars. The shields and flags were the only bright colors used, and all the ..black amid which they were set gave them a charming value when seen in the bright July sunshineunder the colbalt blue sky. WRAPPED IN A FLAG. The casket was wrapped In a tri-colored flag and a wreath lay on It from the mother of tho dead man. It bore the words: "Hon
or and conscience." This was the only wreath that was set on the hearse. All the others were on easel-shaped bearers, each carried by four men, or on wagons draped to match the hearse and drawn by four or six horses, according to the size of the floral emblems. The parish clergy of the Madeline and altar boys attended to recite prayers beside the coffin before it was borne away for ever from those who loved and venerated the sweot, upright spirit which had fled, leaving it a lump of tenantlesa clay. The papal nuncio and his staff were present at the head of the diplomatic body, the members of which were In full dress uniform. His eminence was robed in a violet gown. The Marquis of Dufferin wore a scarlet uniform with a grand sky blue cordon and other insignia, including the star of India and the order of the Bath. The Russian ambassador. Baron Von Mohrenheim, was dressed in the Russian diplomatic uniform and Count Hoyos-Sprinzensteln. the Austrian ambassador, wore the uniform of a general of the Austrian cavalry. Baron Ressman, the Italian ambassador, wore an Italian uniform. On the whole, it was unprecedented for ambassadors to walk bareheaded behind a hearse through the streets of Paris, dressed as if they were at a court function of each of their respective sovereigns. Under such a sun there was serious danger of sunstrokes, from which. In fact, many of the soldiers suffered. Indeed, the ambulances had such a busy time picking them up that one felt apprehensive lest the ambassadors, all of whom were elderly gentlemen, might fall down, not merely senseless, but dead. President Casimir-Perier and the members of the bureaus of the chambers were also hatless. But most of. the other members of the Legislature wore their hats and shielded themselves with umbrellas. The papal nuncio's black skull cap aggravated the effect of the torrid heat of the solar rays. The mourning coaches were few, and were occupied by the clergy and the Sisters of. Charity, who had watched beside the coffin. The hearse vas the one made and used for Gambetta's funeral, and was designed by Uastien Ji Page. It Is a most Imposing vehicle. The seventeen insignia and orders of the deceased were borne behind the hearse by the masters of cere-" monies, wearing mourning dress of the"; eighteenth century. THE PROCESSION. No ladies of the Carnot family or of the'; family circle were in the procession. But,' admitted to the official delegations, were two smartly dressed girls in the peasants'; mourning costumes of Alsace and Lor-' ralne. They were neatly built, and walked with light step, very different .from the slouching gait of the infantry present. The judges were dressed In red and black robes. The admirals and generals an I the one remaining marshal of France, Oanrobert, were gouty and hardly able to walk in the cortege. Marshal Canrobert was as enthusiastically received by the crowds as were the two damsels or the flag of Joan, of Are. which was borne in the procession. As the cortege proceeded, first to Notre Dame, where the funeral mass was to be celebrated. President Casimir-Perier, notbeing known to they crowd, was not much noticed. He was the official chief mourner, and broke through the protocol to be so. The President wore the grand cordon of the Iegion of Honor and the collar of; grand master of that order, which was"
made for Napoleon I. the founder of the order. The whole of the Cabinet surrounded the President. There were some delegations from) the hospital nurses and school mistresses, but they did not In anywise represent feminine or Parisian fashion. Tne deputations were innumerable, and each presented a wreath. The florists say 4.W0.0OJ francs, at a low computation, must have be?n spent upon various kinds of wreaths. The big bell of Notre Dame did not ring out a dirge, but artillery salutes were fired from the forts around Paris. Every Ave minutes dead marches were played by the military bands,' and it was noticed that Chopin s marcn, which was a great favorite of the late President, was also the favorite of the bandmasters to-dav. The body was received at the cathedral. oy cardinal iticnaru, tne arcnuisnop or Paris, by the dean and chapter, and by a host of bishops. The banner of Joan of Arc was borne before the collin into the cathedral, and near It were seated the damsels representing Alsace-Iyjrralne. At the head of the state President Cc.si-mlr-Perier alone was seated in hymicycle' of the chancel. Behind him were the officers of President Carnot's military household, and Mme. Carnot and her daughter, who had come privately and thickly veiled, and who seemed to pray fervently. Not a hundredth part of the members of the delegation could be admitted into the ca thedral. When the Cardinal gave the ah-i solution all present, and among them were two Tunisian princes, cast holy water on the coffin. The funeral cortege was then reformed and went slowly towards the Pantheon. At the latter building a scaffolding, set up for architectural repairs at the entrance, was draped with black and was used as a mortuary chapel, in which three speeches were delivered, one by M. Challemel-Lacour. the president of the Senate: another by Premier Dupuy, and the third by De Mahy. the acting president of the Chamber of Deputies, speaking respectively for the Senate, Cabinet and Chamber of Deputies. At" 5:50 p. m. the funeral was over, with? the exception of piling up tne iunern wreaths in and around the Pantheon. The remains of President Carnot now lie In a vault In the secularized Pantheon, near those of his grandfather and Victor Hug, whose rdohe seems forlorn and neglected. The news was circulated among the official delegations before the cortege left the Elysee palace that the Emperor of Oermanv. In compliment to th memory of President Carnot, had pardoned the French naval officers who were sentenced to imprisonment after having been convicted of espionage at Kiel. EMILY CRAWFORD.; DETAILS OF THE FI XERAL. Scene Ahont the Pnlnce nnl AlonK Hie Route of the Prooelon. PARIS, July 1. The remains of the late President Sadi-Carnot, the murdered chief magistrate of France, struck down by the hand of Santo Cesaerio, the Anarchist, at Lyons on Sunday last, were deposited in the Pantheon to-day by the side of the remains of his grandfather. Iazare 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. Crowds began to gather along the Champs Elysees, the Rue De Rlvoll and about the streets on the He de la Cite from early yesterday evening. People camped all night, quiet and mournful, discussing the tragedy and cursing the assassin. By 3 o'clock this morning the streets along the route were already crowded, and by 6 o'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 houses, windows and balconies from which to view the funeral procession. All classes of people, young and old, rich and poor, crowded to the funeral from all parts of Taris and from every department of France. The incoming trains were crowded last night and this morning. The hotels were packed, and vehicles of all descriptions, stationed wherever the police would allow them to stand, were packed with people who had furnished themselves with liquid and solid refreshments enough to last them for nearly a day. The neighborhood C the British embassy was so packed with people yesterday evening that manv who wished to get away in order tc obtain food and drink were unable to do so. and Lady Dufferin, the wife of the British embassador, felt so much compassion for them that she instructed her servants to distribute all the refreshments possible to the throng ouUide the doors of the embassy. The example of Lady Dufferin was followed by the occupants of a number of adjoining man!ons. At 9 o'clock this morning the whole route of the procession was packed in a manner never before seen in this city. The weather was gloriously bright, but the heat soon became almost unbearable. All the barrows, benches, chairs and tables which couM bo brought out of the houses were placed upon the sidewalks and standincr room upon them was auctioned off, in many cases ut large prices. Countless deputations, civil and mllitarv. legal, medical, commercial and other lot!ies began arriving in the neighborhood of the palace and formed in their allotted stations under the culanoe of the police upon the Champs i Ivos. the ac nue Montajrne and the avenue D'Antimo. Lines of troops, InfaMfy. civaliy, artillery and gardes rc-puM'oue were to be seen on all sides, and mounted rdfrlles dashed here Jnd there b-vi-pg iiv?3;;.ij: s to and from the staff cf v!enril S-u.ssirr, the military govcrnr of Paris. The mourning emblem d'splayel on all sides gave a mournful or.? to everything and helped to Increase he gloom which spread over the vast assemolae. CASIMIR-PERIER ARRIVES. The crowds about the palace and the Place de la Concorde watched with great interest the arrival of the carriages containing the representatives of the foreign
nations and the high officials of th gov
ernment, who were escorted by detach ments of dragoons. Then came the Cabinet ministers, who were respectfully saluted on all sides, and who seemed deerdv im pressed with the solemnity of the occasion. There wa3 an Immense stir among the crowds when Casimir-Perier, the successor of the late President, drove up to the palace, for, contrary to precedent, the newly-elected chief magistrate of France had determined to attend the fun eral. The troops presented arms upon his arrival, and he was received at the entrance of the palace by a number of high officials. General Saussier then cave the? slcnal for the funeral to commence. Surrounded by a brilliant staff of mounted officers. tne ueneral took up his position in the courtyard. In front of the magnificent catafalque upon which the remains of the late President had been resting In state since Friday last, and the black casket, with Its elaborate silver mountings, was removed under the superintendence of the priests who had been gathered about the Dier rrom early morning. At exactlv 10:25 a. m. the nrocesslon began Its march toward the Cathedral of Notre Dame. A squad of Republican Guards moved from the ground and pal ace ana proceeded slowly down the Avenue Marting towards the Avenue Gabriel and the Champs Elysees. the band of the guards playing a funeral march All the troops presented arms and the people uncovered their heads, in spite of the blazing sun. Following the band of the Guarde Republique came four of the principal attendants of the Elysee with tri-color cocardes In their hats and bearing President Casimir-Perier's splendid wreath of roses and palms across two poles. Then came two carriages containing the police who were to escort the body to Notre Dame. After the clergy came a six-horse funeral car which had been used at the funerals of Presidents Thiers and MacMahon. The trappings of the car and horses were richly embroidered with silver, and angels with outstretched wings surmounted each corner. The casket was covered with the trl-color of France and was heavily draped with crepe. There were no flowers on the funeral car. As the funeral car passed those who had not previously doffed their hats did so, many of the women fell upon their knees and all good Catholics made the sign of the cross and offered up a silent prayer for the repose of the soul of the murdered President. Ab the procession emerged from the Champs Elysees a man cried, amidst the profoundest respectful silence of the crowd: "Vive Carnot." Vive la republique." The man who thus broie the mournful silence was Immediately removed. THE MOURNERS. Two infantry captains, bearing a large velvet cushion upon which rested Carnot's various orders, marched after the funeral car. They were followed by the officers composing the civil household of the late President. Behind these were the three sons of the dead man. The other members of the Carnot family, excepting the widow, came next, and preceded President Casimir-Perier, who followed them bareheaded, with the cordon of grand master of th( Legion of Honor across his breast. The President was surrounded by General Borius, the chief of the military household, and by all the other officers of the military household. Behind them came the Presidents of the two chambers, M. Cbal-lemel-Iacour, President of the Senate, and M. "De Mahy, acting President of the Chamber of Deputies. The embassadors and the staffs of the different embassies, all' in full uniform, followed. Behind them were the Cabinet Ministry, headed by Premier Dupuy. The cardinals and nearly all the Senators and Deputies had the next place In the procession, preceding the personal friends of the family, and the leading military. and naval officers of the republic. The remainder of the cortege was composed of deputations from the various departments of the government, the Legion of Honor, the different institutions, the . clergy and others. The view from the roof tops along the Champs Elysees was superb. The sun shone brilliantly on the glittering uniforms of the officers as the procession marched between the long avenue of trees, with Its immense multitudes of sight-seers on both sides. Along the Rue de Rlvoll, the trailinns and gardens, the Tullleries, the statues, the kiosks, lamp posts and everything capable of supporting a sight-seer were taken advantage of by all who were lucky enough to obtain standing or holding room upon such points of vantage. There was one serious accident. A man standing uiwin some ratlines overbalanced himself and. was impaled and killed. The heat was intense that hundreds of people fainted, ana, owing to the packed crowds. It was with great difficulty that they could be succored and removed. The action of President Casimir-Perier In attending the funerai received the approval of the populace. By some It was regarded simply as a mark of respect for the memory of ids predecessor; by others it was regarded as a defiance of anarchy. At several points the President was greeted with applause, which was, however, speedily hushed in view of the solemnity of the occasion. Marshal Canrolert, the last of the marshals of France, who was supported by two officers and two beautiful vouncr girls, representing Alsace and Lorraine, was alto applauded. A panic occurred at the arcades of the Rue de Rlvoll, near the Rue Cambon. As the end of the procession passed an officer's horse shied and backed Into the crowd. Those behind the first few lines of the crowd were not aware of the cause of the disturbance and some foolish person crkvd out. "Bomb!" The affrighted sightseers made a desperate rush in their effyrls to escape what they believed to be ap impending explosion. Stands and bcuches packed with people were overturned, some persons fell to the ground, and were trampled under foot, and women screamed and fainted. The procession was stopped, and when the police succeeded in reassuring the crowds it was found that, although numbers were hutt. no one was .seriously injured. FL'XERAL. EXERCISES. Service nt Notre Dame nnil AllreKMC at the Pantheon. The procesison reached the Cathedral of Notre Dame at noon, where a most impressive scene was witnessed. General Borius, surrounded by all the generals and officers of the staff, stood on the left side of the Place Parvis Notre Dame. As the casket was taken from the funeral car the officers all saluted together, the troops presented arms, the trumpets rang out a grand salute, the mullled drums rolled and the -bella tolled mournfully, the whole filling the:alr with a strange wailing sound which echoed far and wide. 'The Archbishop of Paris, . Cardinal Rich'ard; then emerged from the cathedral, followed by the whole chapter and officiated at the removal of the casket, which was carried slowly and solemnly into the sacred edifice, surrounded with the (swelling tones 'of the grand organ, as M. Saint-Saens played the Beethoven funeral march. Notre Dame was a mass of black and silver, intermingled wdth ermine. The nave was nuns' with black drapery, bordered wdth ermine, reaching to the apse. The banner of Joan of Arc was veiled with crepe and the magnificent pulpit was completely hidden with black cloth. The lower part of the outer walls was hung with black erminebordered velvet; the upper galleries were covered with sombre draperies, and between the pillars were about fifty black velvet banners, having a crown of silver laurels In their center. The clergy, headed by the Archbishop of Paris4 preceded the bier up the aisle to a monumental catafalque in the middle of the transept, displacing the altar, which usually stands at that spot. The catafalque was upon a dais ten feet high and was surrounded by eight immense lighted flambeaux. The catafalque itself stood out wierdly, illuminated with these flambeaux and sixteen candelabra, each of eighteen candles. The rest of the vast edifice was dimly lighted by the rays of the sun, which filtered through the magnificent stained glass windows. The galleries of the trlforium were packed with people who had been able to obtain admittance by special order. President Casimir-Perier took his seat in the private inclosure around the pulpit. Behind him were seated the members of the late President's civil and military households. The first row of chairs was occupied by the late M. Sadl-Carnot's sons, his brother and sons-in-law. The second row was occupied by Premier Dupuy and the others Ministers. In the other row of seats sat the members of the diplomatic corps and the official delegations. The choirs of Notre Dame and the Conservatoire de Muslque executed the liturgical chants and two members of Gounod's "Mors et Vita." M. Felix Faure. the famous baritone, being the soloist. The plaintive notes of "Dies Irae" were sung, and the choir and M. Faure's rendering of "Pie Jesu" from Saint-Saens's requiem mass produced a profound impression. Before pronouncing the absolution the Archbishop of Paris delivered an allocution. The cardinal said: "Before this mourning, which has afilicted every French heart without distinction of opinion, one recognizes that France, in spite of moments of forgetfulness and error, always regards
the chief of the state as the representative of divine authority. The late President Carnot was an upright man in public as well as in private life, and these simple words have been repeated by all since his death, and constitute a greater eulogy thnn long orations. May this life, sacrificed to duty, prove a great lesson of union to all French hearts." The Archbishop of Paris concluded with offering respectful homage to the Carnot family and by inviting all Christians to pray for the repose of the soul of the late President. The religious ceremony in the cathedral was concluded at 2 p. m., when the procession reformed and proceeded across tha river to the Pantheon. The scenes witnessed during the passage of the procession from the palace to Notre Dame were repeated as it slowly made its way to the Pantheon. There were a number of spontaneous outbursts of cheering, especially when President Casimir-Perier was recognized, but out of respect for the dead these outbursts of enthusiasm were speedily hushed. AT THE PANTHEON. The funeral car and its escort arrived at the Pantheon at 2:30 p. m., amid the booming of a salute of 101 guns fired by a park artillery stationed In the Jardin du Luxemberg. At brief intervals the massed bands played funeral marches as the procession was winding its way from the cathedral. At the Pantheon the casket was removed amid a trumpet salute and the roll of muffied drums. The entire procession had not reached the Pantheon before the funeral orations commenced. Premier Dupuy, during his remarks, said: "President Carnot gave his life for his country. He died for France and for the republic He was struck down in a cowardly manner and with savage vindictiveness. The people concerned in this outrage must be reduced to powerlessness. Carnot fell like a soldier on the field of honor. At the moment he already could see before him the hour of repose, for he had not the slightest idea of soliciting reelection, which he considered contrary to the spirit of the Constitution. President Carnot had the highest conception of the office of President of the Republic. He knew how to gain, privately and publicly, the sympathy and respect of France, and foreign lands, by their unanimous sorrow, have manifested their sympathy and admiration for the man, the citizen and the magistrate, and, more especially, for the man of peace, to the maintenance of which he devoted all his efforts. President Carnot will be placed to rest beside his illustrious grandfather, 'L'Organisateur du la Victoire.' His death will enfold at the same time the genius of war and the genius of peace. History will say that he wished to unite all Frenchmen in a wide, brave, progressive and free republic." Premier Dupuy then traced the life of the late President, reviewed his increasing popularity before his death, and concluded his address with saying: "France feels the greatness of its loss. We thank you for having prepared a union of Its sons wdth the common love felt for the republic and for the fatherland. We will retain your memory in order to better serve the republic and will ever keep in view the honor of France. The republic lays upon your coffin a flag draped with mourning. Deign to accept this supreme ho.-.iage of gratitude and sorrow." M. Challemel-Lacour recalled the ceremony of 17$. when the body of Lazare Carnot was placed in the Pantheon, and said: "The grandfather and grandson today are united, and before this destiny, an obscure death in exile on one side and he vengeance of a madman on the other, one asks himself why exert one's self when such 13 the reward of the purest devotion? France, full of life and energy, nobly bears the scar of her wound and Imposes respect by the manner In which she endures this latest outrage. The workman is struck in the midst of his work. But the work proceeds. France lives by the devotion of those who have sacrificed themselves for her." The President of the Senate then proceeded to eulogize the late President Carnot, dwelling upon his calmness in difficult situations, and concluded: "May such calmness sustain us in our hour of need. Before a career so noble we have only to inspire ourselves with the light which shines out in the life of Carnot, his love of the fatherland and his inflexible respect for the law." M. De Mahy. the acting President of the Chamber of Deputies, in his address, expatiated upon the foulness of the crime which had robbed the late President of his life, adding: "It lies in the power of such a cowardly murderer to launch France Into the depths of desolation, and to even confound us for the moment. But such outrages will never divert France from her work of progress, and Parliament will continue the necessary reforms some time in repressing the disturbing element, thus carrying out the will of the nation which repudiates so-called Internationalism and desires concord and peace." General Andre delivered the last speech, and afier a march past the troops who had taken part in the procession, the casket containing the remains of the murdered President was lowered into the vault and all then dispersed. Madame Carnot remained at the Elysee Palace with her daughter and the wives of the members of the military household after the funeral procession had started, and at noon, when the body was arranged to arrive at Notre Dame, mass was celebrated in the chapel of the palace for the repose of the late President's soul. The
chapel was draped with black and the widow manifested the greatest anguish as the Abbe Kossinet officiated at the sacred ceremony. Count Von Munster, the German embassador. Informed Prime Minister Dupuy and M. Hanotux. the Minister of Foreign Affairs, that upon the occasion of M. Carnot's obsequies Emperor William had granted a pardon to Lieutenant Dagony and Lieutenant Malevas, the two French officers who were convicted in December last at Liepsic of being spies. M. Dupuy at once informed President CasimirPerier, who begged Count Von Munster to thank Emperor William for his noble thought and to assure him that his grateful act would go to the hearts of the two great nations. A VXCOM3IOX FIXERAL. The Obsequies ntt Viewed 1y the Loudon Times Correspondent. LONDON, July 1. A dispatch from Paris to the Times eays one funeral Is necessarily like another, but to-day's ceremony. In most respects, had nothing in common with previous ceremonies. It was the entire people whose hearts throbbed at the passage of Carnot's remains, who bared their heads before the funeral car, and who watched the sad procession. The tragical death of the citizen, who, as the head of the nation, had effaced all distinctions and thrown party animosities in the background, made all Frenchmen sharers in the same melancholy consternation. The correspondent says: T have witnessed all the great funerals of the third republic, and never have 1 been struck as I was to-day by the mournful attitude of the million of men and women who thronged the footways, stands, windows, balconies and housetops. The true Parisian spirit, which is fond alike in earning and saving money, was quite ingenious to-day in the art of turning a penny out of the President's funeral. But for fear of wanting in respect to the memory of the deceased this might be called ladder day for nobody could have conceived that so many ladders existed in all France as were utilized to-day. There was some laughing and passing of jokes in the crowd, and occasionally a dispute. Ladders, chairs, tables and stands were noisily offered for rent, the price of a step ladder varying from 5 to 8 francs, according to their height. All this until the procession approached, but as soon as the first squadron of cavalry passed before the crowd silence prevailed and the latent feeling of sadness appeared. You felt 3'ourself to be amid a nation mourning. A feeling of disquietude evidently pervaded every heart. The menace to social order symbolized by the dagger stroke seemed to hang over every head, and the elegant ladie3 who thronged the windows along the route only attracted observation because their bright toilettes contrasted with the gloomy thoughts that haunted the crowd. The ieople seemed to be struck by the moral of President Casimir-Perier's courage in settirg an example of public duty. As General Saussier, the military governor of Pans, passed there were a few plaudits, but he turned around and said, 'Silence before death.' and there was silence. This had sufficed for the whole route, and when the new President passed there were bows, and there was no attempt at applause. Terhaps there was pity shown. "M. Casimir-Perier in his letter resigning the presidency of the Chamber of Deputies did not appeal to all Frenchmen. He appealed Instead only to republicans. I mention this because to-day nil hearts went out to him. He may be the man whose grand mission it is to make all French hearts beat in unison. The breath of peace, moreover. Is now passing over the world. The German Emperor has been winning hearts, for the people have discerned that behind that martial figure there Is a heart to feel for human griefs. To-day's ce.emony bears the germs of peace, oblivion and hope. All fe?l the necessity of combining against the common enemy, the only battle to ho fought being one In defense of society. Statues of M. Carnot in Paris and Lyons are talked of. Thy ought to bear the njotto: 'His life taught us our duty, his death enjoined concord.' " Fifty Xotorlows Red" Arrested. PARIS, July 1.

WASHINGTON".

In the first pew to the left of the aisle wers Embassadors Patenotre, in glittering uni form, with the cross of the Legion of Honor suspended by a red ribbon from his collar, and his handsome young bride, the daughter of James Elverson, of Philadelphia, wearing deep mourning.

NEW YORK, July L The day of President Carnot's funeral was observed here. Flags flew at half mast from the City Hall and on many of the fashionable residences of Frenchmen. The colors of the French republic, draped in black, were displayed on all the French churches. Masses for the repose of the soul of the dead President were celebrated In the churches of St. Vincent de Taul and St. Jean Baptlste. The most elaborate exercises, however, were held in St. Patrick's Cathedral. Here were assembled not only the majority of the French residents of the city but thousand of representatives of different creeds and nationalities. The vast area inclosed by the walls of the cathedral was insufficient to accommodate the dense throng. Archbishop Corrigan would have officiated were It not for the fact that he was obliged to po to Albany to attend the consecration of the new bishop there. The sanctuary of the cathedral was decorated with the draped colors of the French republic An imitation casket stood at the head of the center aisle. All the French societies in the city wera represented. Nearly a dozen priests, chiefly from the French churches, under the direction of Father Wicher, of St. Vincent de Pauls, took part In the ceremonies. Father I Wicher preached.
