Four thousand chairs had been provided and these were filled, and standing room was all taken an hour before the meeting opened. Thousands surrounded the building unable to gain admission. Mr. Depew said he had made speeches every twenty minutes during the day. "Though I am sixty f ears of age, I feel that in an emergency ike this any man is sustained for the duty of the hour. This audience looks as if it meant business and this is a business camraign and that means Republican victory met Governor Flower to-day. He said, Chauncey. it is cold I said. 'Yea. Governor, for you and your party it is & cold Say.' I dismissed my audiences and sent them to hear the Governor. He has such a way of handling facts that he convinces his hearers that he is on the wrong side. "I find, in making my trip through the southern tier of counties of this State, that the wages of the workmen have been universally reduced during the last year. If the Republican party is successful In electing a Republican Congress and President In 180 we will place the tariff on manufactures and the products of the farm and raise their wages again. Congressman Wilson says the trouble Is that the American people may have been drunk on prosperity und are Just getting sober. I say let us get drunk on this American prosperity again in 1SC and stay drunk on the same beverage." PROSPECTIVE SENATORS. .Walsh ami Haeon dominated by Georgia Democrats. ATLANTA, Nov.

Jnpaneae War Spirit. WASHINGTON, Nov. l.-The Japanese war news received at the legation gives graphic descriptions of the Emperor's headquarters at Hiroshima, and of the en thusiasm with which the war preparations are made. The Imperial headquarters are In an old wooden building two stories high, formerly used as an army barracks. The rooms are small and scantily furnished. The Emperor occupies the upper floor, while the lower story is used for the council of war. The Emperor rises at 6 o'clock and does not retire until 11. all the while wearing military costume. He personally directs all that goes on and has proved to be an indefatigable worker. All the barracks and quarters near by are full of soldiers. There Is the constant rattle and clank of cannon, horses, guns and sabres The streets are lined with flags and lanterns. The soldiers, as they move on, are cheered by enthusiastic crowds. The spirit of humbling China to the dust is everywhere manifest, and the Japanese without exception regard this result as beyond the slightest doubt. The unanimity of ijvar sentiment is shown by the printed declaration of the Kalshlnto party, which has hitherto resisted the government. It announces the chastisement . of China as the first and paramount duty of Japan. It then gives its support to all war measures and says it will resist any proposition of peace until China is humbled and the objects of the war attained. The full text of the Emperor's decree establishing pensions for distinguished service Is printed. The pensions range from 930 to Gi yen per annum, according to the service, and are divided Into seven classes. In case of death the widow or orphans of the deceased Is to receive the pension.

JOHN BURNS TO COME
TUB ENGLISH LABOR LEADER WILL SOOX VISIT THIS COUNTRY. V He Will Take Part in the TradesUnion Conference nt Denver Something; About His Life. London Letter, In Philadelphia Telegraph. The fact that Mr. John Burns, the most talked of labor leader In the United Kingdom, Is on the point of paying a flying visit to the States, Is one which should prove interesting to those, and I have no doubt there are many, who have followed the recent trend of events in this country. Mr. Burns Is coming out in company with Mr. Ward Holmes, as a representative of the Trade Union Congress to the conference which is shortly to be held at Denver, Col., and some remarks concerning his character and individuality may not be altogether out of place In this column. Circumstances have so decreed it that during the last twelve of fourteen years I have had a close and intimate acquaintance with the gentleman who now represents me on the London County Council and in the British Hous of Commons, and I am rather curious to note the kind of reception he will meet with on the other side of the Atlantic, where questions similar to those in which he Is so deeply Interested have been rather to the front of late. Mr. Burns has been several times invited to undertake a lecturing tour round your big cities and I have no doubt that, had he been so inclined, he might have made very satisfactory financial arrangements wKh any one of the agents who have approached him on the subject. But John is Just one of those men to whom pecuniary considerations appeal In vain, when they at the same time threaten to interfere with the work to which he has set his heart. Three years ago he might, had he been so Inclined, have been voted to the position of Deputy Chairman of the London County Co acll, with the comfortable salary of $7,500 per annum; and it Is a fact, which no one has yet ventured to contradict, that on two separate occasions he has refused to accept an office of profit under the crown which his friend. Lord Rosebery, would fain have had him accept. Unlike some labor leaders who could be named, John Burns does not seem to have had one eye on the labor movement and another on the main chance, and in this fact is to be found much of the secret of the influence which he undoubtedly iwssesses over such lare bodies of men. To look at him, one would Imagine that at least half a century had passed over his head, so gray and grizzled are his hair and beard; but the eyes which gleam out so brightly from his shaggy eyebrows, and the voice, which rings out so defiantly over the broad expanse of Hyde Park, show the still glowing spirit of youth, and as a matter of fact tho labor leader is but thirty-five years of age. John Burns's birthplace is but a short distance from the house in which he now resides, and ho enjoys the almost unique dlsi.uoi.oa as a labor man of representing on the Council and in Parliament, the place in which he was born and educated. OF SCOTCH DESCENT. As the name implies, hl3 family is of Scotch extraction, and not unconnected with that of the famous northern poet whose name is so widely known. They were of the ordinary working-class rank, and John was educated at a church school in the neighborhood of Battersea. At the age of eleven he donned the top boots and breeches as a gentleman's tiger; but, not caring for the calling, he applied himself to the work of engineering, in which he speedily became a proficient. As was to be expected, his elementary education was not of a very advanced character, but he made up for this in the days of his youth, and some born In the purple might do better did they possess half the knowledge he does of men and books. But the more he studied the less he was able to perceive that everything, was for the best In this best of ail possible worlds. He went In for solid reading no penny dreadfuls or fiction of the kind In -.vhich the average boy delights, but sound, straightforward essays on political economy and social questions. This, combined with what he saw around him of the condition of the working classes, made him, even In his teens, an agitator. Before he was sixteen John Burns had tasted the fruits of adversity by being discharged from his employment for making a political speech during working hours, and a year later he tackled a big political question in the columns of a London dally paper, afterwards gaining no little notoriety as a street-corner orator of a most impassioned character. In the year 1880. I think it was, he went out to the west coast of Africa in pursuit of his vocation, and had a very rough time of it Indeed, the results of which are even now apparent at time3. It was soon after hl3 return from this excursion during which he was instrumental in saving one or more lives that Burns entered fully on the public career which has been so successful. I can remember him In 1883, as one of the finest speakers possessed by a local parliament which Battersea then possessed, a fine cut Socialist who would have nothing to do with either Liberal or Tory, and who dreamed dreams of a good time coming, when poverty should be no more and the social revolution should set right all that was wrong in the condition of the working classes. Then he continued his outdoor propaganda, and got into trouble with the authorities for the very pronounced opinions which he enunciated. It was on one memorable occasion, whilst the youthful orator was being led oft Clapham Common a big open space partly In Battersea that he aroused the sympathy of the charming lady who is now the partner of his joys and sorrows and a willing helpmate in the arduous work which falls to his share. All this time John was an ardent Socialist one might almost say revolutionist, as indeed he is still depicted by some of the Tory papers, and his share In the battle of Trafalgar Square cost him and Mr. Cunninghame Grahame, another hot-blooded enthusiast, six weeks' enforced seclusion In one of her Majesty's palatial establishments. . THE GREAT DOCK STRIKE. Soon after this came the big "dock strike," and from this may be dated the John Burns of to-day. Whatever may have been the rights or wrongs of that gigantic struggle, there can be no doubt that it was led In a manner which saved London from terrible scenes, and which earned the respect and sympathy of the general public at home and abroad. Docken; are not gentle bv nature, and less firm handling might ive led to disastrous results. But I. for c shall never forget the masterful manner n which the legions of strikers wre ma tged. Burns had with him good helpers in the persons of Ben Tellett and Tom Man. and others, but his was the hand which guided the reins. No one who haS anythii.,? to do with the strike can forget those meetings on Tower Hill in the early morning, at which progress was reported and hope and encouragement held out, nor those dally marches through the streets of a crowded city which a handful of policemen were able to control. Such scenes could hardly have been witnessed in any other capital in the world without turmoil and bloodshed; and when at last the docker was placed in possession of a living wage "the full round orb of the dockers' tanner" the results of the strike were far-reaching and Important. Here It was that there commenced that upheaval In the ranks of unskilled labor in this country, the end of which Is not yet the beginning of a movement which has put Its mark, "writ large," on the history of Ergland, until even strong governments are compelled to study the labor vote. In the organizations of union which followed Burns took a leading part, some hundreds of them being due to his initiative, and some forty strikes, nearly all successful, being under his conduct. So proud were Battersea people of him that when the London County Council was first elected they Insisted upon his Leinis one of their two representalves. the senior member for Battersea taking no small share In forming the labor policy of that imirtant body. But It was felt al?o 'that the House of Commons was a place which he ould adorn, and the eminently respectable and fairly advanced Liberal who at that time occupied the seat for Battersea found the signs so unmistakable that he discreetly made way for Burns. The olHcial Liberals, many of whom don't like the labor movement at all. sent down a clever lawyer to raise the vacant place: but he had hardly been five mlnute3 In Battersea when he found that he was not wanted, and he went back to het-dquarters .aith the report that no on stood a chance against Burns. The Tories niihed in where the Liberals feared to tread and put up a wealthy stock broker, who devoted much time and much money to the tak o? defeating the choice of the people. He was beaten by a handccrr.e majority, and John went to the House of Commons, where in a couple of years he
haa made himself respected and popular on both sides of the -House. Of his work in Parliament and at successive Trade Congreeses I have not epace.to treat, but the matter is dougtless familiar to you. All I would like to say Is that the John Burns of 1834 is not the John Bums of 1SS7. He has profited by experience, and while as enthusiastic as ever, he is a staunch believer In constitutional methods of arriving at the desired results. In his own constituency, where he lives In a humble fourroom flat, containing a library hich a peer might envy, John is almost idolized. He is a unique member, and he has a unique constituency. Let me say also that he is a lifelong teetotaller, a non-smoker, an ardent cricketer, a proficient skater, and no mean hand with "the gloves." I trust the States will give him a hearty reception. RAILROADING IS EtllOPE. Some Comparisons with American Roads ns to Speed nnd Charges. New York Times. Two recent publications, viz., the official guides respectively of The Compagnle Internationale des Wagons-Lits and The Guide Official des Voyageurs, possess an especial interest as giving an Insight impossible to obtain without the most extensive personal journeying into the railroad systems of Europe, and suggests comparisons with our own. The French official guide Is a pudgy little volume of something less than one thousand pages, containing not only the time tables of all railroads on the continent of Europe and North Africa, but also of the river and lake steamboats, with much interesting Information in regard to the telegraph and postal services of the different countries, and many pages devoted to advertising and miscellaneous information. The Travelers' Official Guide to the railways in this country, published in New York, is more than double its size, without undertaking to give the same amount of information that is embraced in the foreign publication. This is a fair Indication of the difference in the . extent and detail of the two railway systems. The sleeping-car guide is more suggestive, however. More than half its space is taken up with advertising and the list of routes or lines embraced therein numbers Just one hundred, covering the entire continent of Europe. Of those, but sixty-two are sleeping-car lines, some of which run but once or twice weekly and some only in the summer or winter season, &a the case may be. The other thirty-nine ines are wagot s resturrant. In the dining cars upon which the charges for breakfast range from 3.50f to 6f, and for dinner from Cf to 7f, wine being extra. In the United States the number of sleepin.-r-car lines will not fall short of one thousand. The number of dining-car lines Is difficult to state, as many of them are operated by the individual railroad companies, while the majority are conducted by the Wagner and Pullman companies. The usual charge in America is $1 per meal. In a few oases, however, luncheon and breakfest are charged at 75 cents, while the buffet cars, with meals served a la carte, apDear to be coming much Into favor. The European center of travel, as of art and fashion, i? Paris, and from the French capital diverge the most important lines. From London to Paris the finest and fastest train is the famous Club Train, leaving Victoria Station at 3 p. m., and arriving at the Grand du Nord, Paris, at 10:47 p. m., traversing a total distance of 2S7 miles. This train is composed exclusively of first-class carriages, and the passenger Is required to pay, in addition to the regular first-class fare of .72.30f., an excess fare of l.75f.. a total of Srl.OGf.. or $18.20 a much higher rate than Is charged upen any American train. One of the principal fast express trains from Paris Is the t$ud express, which connects with the Club train from London, and makes the run of 902 miles to Madrid In twenty-eight hours, the usual time by other trains being thirty-five and fifty-nine hours, respectively. The railroad fare from Paris to Madrid is 164.65f., flr3t-class. The sleeping-car fare Is ,S2.30f. to Madrid and 107.3Uf. to Lisbon. , To compare with American trunk lines, the distance from New York to Chicago by the New York Central line Is 976 miles, seventy-four more than from Paris to Madrid. The fare is..J20, $12.43 less than the European first class. and $3.33 less than the second class for -the shorter distance. The excess fare on the North Shore Limited is but $3, and the sleeping-car fare but $5, or less than one-third of that from Parts to Madrid. The Mediterranean Express is another fast train, which runs twice a week during the winter season, between Paris and the Rivera, via Marseilles, Nice, and Monte Carlo Vlntlmille being the terminus of the sleeping-car line. It is 535 miles from Paris to Marseilles and 716 miles to Vlntlmille, the sleeping-car fare to these points being, respectively, 45f and G0.50f. The distance from Paris to Marseilles le just about that from Chicago to Buffalo, and this train de luxe .rovkesw about the . same, time as the fast trains ,T, the.. Michigan. Central and Lake Shore, 'but the railroad fare is much higher in France", and the sleepingcar fare is Just three times as nrich. . The sleeping-car fare from Chicago to Utica 738 miles Is $4 less than one-third that from Paris to Mntlmllle. So on, examples might be multiplied to demonstrate that In Europe, where the cost of living is in almost all things much cheaper than In this country, travelers are obliged to pay from 20 to 60 per cent, higher for accommodations on the railroads. For closer comparison, the charges of the pleeplng-car lines may be tabulated as follows: SleepingRoute Miles. Car Fare. Paris to Marseilles........... 533 $9.00 Chicago to Buffalo 63G 3.00 Paris to Vlntlmille 716 12.10 Chicago to Utica 723 4.00 Paris to Vienna..: 871 7.60 Paris to Rome.....-.:.:;..... 901 15.60 Paris to Madrid...; 902 16.43 New York to Chicago 975 5.00 Boston to Chicago..... 1,035 S.50 Paris to Lisbon 1,316 21.46 Paris to Rrindlsi 1,331 17.00 SL Louis to Portland 1,332 7.00 The comparisons, it will be observed, are very much In favor of the American railroads. The Mothcr-In-Lnvr in Court. New York Evening un." The legal status of the mother-in-law, with reference to the Treasury Department, Is in a fair way of settlement. John Lanarse, of Wilmington, Del., has applied to the United States Commissioner of Immigration at Philadelphia to prevent the landing of his mother-in-law, now believed to be on her way from Antwerp. His reasons aro that Mrs. Cutjar's coming would, make his future life miserable"; Interfere with the happiness of himself and his wife, and that Europe is a much better place for his dear relative than Wilmington or any other place In the United States. The mothers-in-law of this country should watch this case. Their future influence, power, rights, standing, etc., depend on the settlement. If wise they will organize and hire counsel to defend Mrs. Cutjar. If on the representation of a son-in-law his mother by marriage can be kept out of the country, it will follow,, as the night does the day, that she can be kept out of the house. The question Is grave enough. In extent and consequence, for the mature wisdom of the full Supreme Court. Angell AVI II Not Succeed Sirintr. ANN ARBOR. Mich.. Nov. 1. President Angell; of the university, has been prominently mentioned here . as Professor Swing's successor in the great People's Church at Chicago. He was asked to preach a sermon next Sunday. The president, however, will remain In Ann Arbor. He aas declined to preach even once. "Thi' is not my vocation, and as for the rumor that I am to take his place for good.

ALEXANDER III DEAD (Concluded from First Pasje.) bltlon of the Czarewitch. which may ba taken for what it 13 wcrth. is that he will maintain the peaceful attitude of his father, at leist so far as Europe is concerned. Ha has not the s.ime occasion for aggressive war on the Turkish dominion that his father had. for he had the very strong motive of avenging his father's defeat and humiliation occasioned by the action of England and France in the wars of his reign. 'Touching both the Internal and foreign affairs of Russia we. In America, as well as France, must await the developments of the character of the new Emperor and the choice of hl3 advisers before, forming an opinion of any value as to whether he will follow the lines laid down by his father and grandfather. Whatever the new Emperor may be Inclined to accomplish In a liberal direction is likely to be shaped or modified by the insurrectionary and violent actions of the Anarchists, who have heretofore thwarted all liberal councils." Mr. Kasson spoke feelingly of the friendship between Russia and the United Scates which had endured for a century, and expressed hope and confidence that the same relations would continue throughout the new reign. The President's message of condolence to the Russian government will be transmitted to-morrow to Minister Breckinridge at St. Petersburg.
CAL'TACUZEXD'S TRIBUTE. The Russian Minister Praises the Lnte Alexander III. WASHINGTON, Nov. 1. The announcement of the Czar's death brought profound grief to the Russian legation at Washington. Official word came late In the afternoon in the following cablegram from De Glers, Minister of Foreign Affairs, at St. Petersburg: "It has pleased our Lord to recall to Him our much beloved sovereign, Emperor Alexander III, who died at Llvadla this afternoon, the 20th of October (1st tof November), at 2:15." The minister communicated the information to the State Department but, owing to the absence at the time from the city, of the President, who was squirrel shooting, It is probable that the message of sympathy and condolence from President Cleveland will not be sent until to-morrow. Prince Cautacuzene said history, in time, would pay its Just tribute to the merits of Alexander III. He had given Russia what she most needed peace and quiet. For ten years there has been nothing heard of Nihilism, except in the Inspired attacks of malicious persons. The Emperor had gone freely among the people unguarded and unattended. He was in the habit of driving with the Czarina In a low, open sleigh through the public streets. The sentiment of affection of the Russian people toward the Emperor constituted a protection much stronger than police protection could afford. The previous Emperor had been guarded by police and yet he met assastnatlon, while the late Emperor moved openly "among his people until he died, to their universal grief. It is not yet determined whether religious ceremonies will be held in Washington In commemoration of the Czar. There is no Greek Church here and the one at New York Is not connected with the established church of Russia, At San Francisco Bishop Nicholas is at the head of the Greek Church diocese of Alaska. At the time Alaska was owned by Russia the Greek church was established there and, since the purchase of the country by the United States, the many Russians there have continued their devotion to that church. It is probable that' Minister Cautacuzene may ask Bishop Nicholas to come to Washington and hold memorial services similar to those held on the death of President Carnot, but there is some doubt as to the Bishop taking the long trip. m Embassador Patenotre, of France, paid a high tribute to the late Czar, whom he described as a warm friend of France, whose people would feel his loss almost as much as the Russians. M. Patenotre is acting dean of the diplomatic corps, but he says there will be no formalities observed by the dlplomates beyond calling and expressing their sympathy to the mlnister. Upon receipt of the official notification of the Czar's death. Mr. Adee, the Second Assistant Secretary of State, acting secretary in the illness of Secretary Gresham, called upon Prince Cautacuzene and conveyed verbally to him the condolence of the President and Secretary of State. A formal letter of condolence from Secretary Gres ham will later be sent to him. The members of the diplomatic corps all called and left their cards at the Russian legation to-dav. The only visitor received there this evening was Assistant Secretary Adee. ALEXANDER ALEXAXDROVITCII. Career of the Late Ruler of All the Russias. Alexander Alexandrovltch, Czar of all the Russias, was horn March 10, 1S45. He was the second son of the late Czar, and, as is usual with grand dukes with no probable prospect of the throne, very little care was bestowed on his education. He was permitted to follow his own Inclinations and tastes. He disliked gorgeous uniforms, and usually wore civilian dress. His fivorite pastimes were hunting and muscular exertion. He was a true sportsman. When his coat was off and his shirt eleeves rolled up his tall, large figure acquired considerable energy and agility, and his features looked animated, if not hand3ome. Then there was a certain manliness and even bravery about him. He was happy when he surpassed his brothers, who were also good athletes, in gymnastic exercises. Suddenly he was called from his sports to occupy the responsible post of Czarevitch, his senior brother. Nicholas, having died. This happened in 18G5. It was great shock to his future subjects, as the young man had the credit of being an obstinate, capricious, bad-tempered boy. The brothers had always been playfellows ahd greatly attached to each other, and when but ten and eleven years old were brought to the deathbed of the Emperor Nicholas, In lo3, to receive their grandfather's blessing und a few words of advice. As might be expected at their age and on sucn an occasion, they both shed many tears. When, on March 13, 1SS1, Alexander II was assassinated by the Nihilists, the subject of this sketch became Czar. He lived in a retirement which his enemies thought savored more of cowardice than prudence, until the day of his coronation at Moscow, May 27. 1883. This was an event of unprecedented splendor, even in Ru33la. The Emperor, in striking contrast with his nervous timidity, manifested great confidence in his people, and since that time was less fearful of personal harm from Nihilists than previously. He traveled with pomp and precaution, being ever surrounded by the strongest of guards. In 1866 he married the Princess Maria Dagmar, fourth child of Christian IX, King of Denmark, and sister of -he l'rincess of Wales. Later, In the year IS74, Queen Victoria's second son, the Duke of Edinburgh, was married to the Grand Duchess Marie of Russia, only daugnter of the Emperor Alexander II. and sister of '.lie p:esent Czar. The head3 of the two governments are thus closely related. An enthusiastic admirer of the Czar, shortly after Alexander III rose to the throne, wrote: "Alone of his race ne is chaste, and has always been so. lie has even shown In his own family his profjund repugnance to Improper conduct. People brought up beside him say that as a jhild he never told a lie, and he carries his scruples as to frankness so far that at the moment of his marriage, for political reasons, with the fiancee of his dead brother, he (lid not conceal from her that he loved another lady, the Princess M , who later on became the wife of the rich and celebrated M. D . This confidence, for that matter, had an echo, for his bride did not conceal from him that she had passionately loved his brother. Yet they form a model household, surprising in its depth of persavvring affection and conco.-d." THE IMPERIAL. FAMILY. The Empress was a member. of the Lutheran, which Is the established church of Denmark, before her marriage. At her reception Into the Greek Church, of which the Czar of Russia is the head, she was known as Maria Feodorovna. She is a great favorite in Russian society, which she cultivates with remarkable assiduity. Five children have been the result of the marriage, of which the eldest, the Grand Duke Nicholas, born May 18, 1SGS, became heir apparent, upon the accession of hl father as Emperor of all the Russias. The other children are the Grand Duke George, born May 1C, 1S71; the Grand Duchess Tvenia, born .April 18, 1875; the Grand Duke Michael, bom Dec. 5, 1878, and the Grand Duchess Olga, born June 13. 18S2. The Czar was the first Emperor since Peter the Great, who was married elsewhere than In Germany. His wife came from Denmark and she Is as much liked in Russia as her Ulster, the Princess of Wales, is In England. The two sisters resemble each other, not only in looks, but In sweetness of character. There were but few drops of real Russian blood In the veins of Alexander III and yet he identified himself with the Russian people to that extent that everything about him. language, habits, appearance, rhyslognomy, were marked with the distinctive signs of Russian. He was mostly Tortr. The two eldest sons of Alexander II., the

Czarevitch Nicholas, who died at Nice In 1SC5. and the present Cxar. differed from each other In many ways nearly as much as their father did from his brother. Nicholas was tall and slender, he had a handsome, expressive face, refined manners, a mild, amiable disposition and a poetical turn of mind. He was a great lover of the European civilization and a great admirer of the English form of government. Alexander was the prototype of Slav energy, was practical, positive, reflexive rather than impulsive, rough, quick tempered and haughty. Even his good qualities were concealei beneath a thick coat of Mongolian varnish. Alexander's education had been as Fidly neglected as that of any member of the imperial family who is not called to ascend the throne, but only to occupy some high office in the army. At the age of twenty, being a mere oftirr of the Imperial Guard, his chief thought had been to enjoy life. Lacking scientific instruction and knowledge of foreign languages, utterly Ignorant of state affairs, without the necessary time to polish off his soldiery training, Alexander had to rise at once up to the level of his new calling. He had to prove, as It were, at one bound that Russia had lost nothing by the change. He had to devote hlmseif to state affairs, take a seat In the council of state, which had Its eyes upon him, and by quick perception, sound Judgment and diplomacy to show that he was fully equal to the tasK devolving upon the Czarevitch. A great number of old statesmen, anxious to explain the miracle In a natural way, claime that Alexander had previously devoted in secret a great deal of his time to such studies as were required by the dignity to which be had eventually been raised. HATED THE GERMANS. It was easy for the national party, chiefly formed, as It was, of youthful elements, to gain htm to a cause the Ideas of which had become fashionable in Russia since 1863. Alexander was readily persuaded that the best means to secure popularity was by favoring national aspirations, and favor them he did. Aversion to anything German was considered a sign of independence by certain classes of Russian society, and accordingly Alexander was not slow in expressing hl3 dislike for the German element of the empire. A great deal has been written about the hatred that Alexander III openly professed for. the German nation, even at home. Notwithstanding the strength of family ties, he never dissimulated while he was simply the Czarevlth his dislike for the Imperial family of Germany. As he ascended to the throne he took good care to Inform at once the court of Berlin of the soundness of his friendly feelings. A Czar has often belled things that he previously said and did while he was only hereditary grand duke, but It is none the lees an undlsputable fact that the triumphs of the German army during the Franco-Prussian war pained Alexander Alexandrovltch very deeply. He had forbidden even the ue of the German language in his household. A fine cf 20 rubles was mercilessly applied by him to any one who infringed the order. As the news of the capitulation of Sedan reached St. Petersburg Alexander II, whose German tendencies were no mystery to anybody, called at once upon his son. To tease ' him the Emperor entered the room saying, "Gott morghen, meln sohn," and at the same time he handed him a twentyruble note. The Czarevitch was furious at the joke. He took the bank note, tore it into a thousand pieces and left the room without saying a single word. Alexander II remarked that it was the first time In his whole life that the Czarevitch had behaved disrespectfully to him. Indeed, few royal sons have loved their fathers as Alexander Alexandrovltch loved his. During his sojourn in England a cloud seemed to hang continually over the Czarevitch's brow. Questioned by his royal host, the Prince of Wales, as to the cause of his gloom, he replied: "I cannot be at ease away from home. It seems as if at every moment I should receive a telegram inronnlng me that my father had been a saslnated." There were, of course, many misunderstandings between father and son, but these never altered in the least their mutual affection. IN A CONSPntACY. ' On the strength of national antipathy for German Influence, gradually was formed around the Czarewitch an active party of which if he were not the soul, he was at all events the figurehead. Countenanced by the presumptive heir to the crown, this party became aggressive and entered Into intrigues against the ministers and officers who possessed the confidence of the Czar. Father and son were thus placed In embarrassing positions toward each other, and many painful scenes took place between them. The most .important intrigue into which the national party led the Czarewitch was directed against Walonieff. the bete noir of the. Slavophils. The young princsv anxious to play a prominent part, and to show the interest fie had in the popular cause, had assumed the office of president of the committee established for the relief of the distress which, during the winter of 1867 and 18C8. prevailed in the northern provinces. In his capacity he sought to make Walonieff, the Minister of the Interior, the scapegoat for all the misery, and thus provoke his fall. After the conspiracy had been developing some time Aksakoff, the celebrated leader of the Slavophils, entered into correspondence with the prince. The correspondence began innocently enough with discussions respecting the crisis in the northern provinces, but it soon changed its character, and touched on political questions of every kind. Aksakoff no doubt thought that a correspondence with the heir to the throne would not be meddled with by the secret police. He was mistaken. Schuvaloff, who was then head of the Third Section, was not a man to recoil from what he deemed his duty even before the name of the Czarewitch Alexander Alexandrovltch. He Intercepted the letters at the moment when they were becoming interesting, and laid extracts before the Emperor. Still more painful scenes took place between the father and the ton. The latter refused all explanations and complained bitterly of the audacity of the police. However, he got little consolation from his father. The incident later resulted in the resignation of the minister. Although the relations between the father and the son continued to be marked with cordiality and respect yet the gap between the opinions of the two men grew wider and wider. It has even been assorted that the Czarewitch sympathized with the revolutionists, and expressed on several occasions to his most intimate friends his determination to effect a thorough change when he should, In the course or time, be summoned to the throne. HIS SOLDIER RECORD. The Czar was in active service In the army from his boyhood. Befora the TurkoRusslan war he had already attained the rank of a full general of Infantry and the command of the corps of the guard, a picked body of troops numbering about fifty-three thousand men of all arms. He was in active service throughout the whole of the campaign on the Danube and had his full measure of hard fighting in a series of battles and combats, principal among which w ere Karahazsanklvi, Ablava, Metchka and Trlstenlk. In the last two battles.
which took place In November, 1877, he signally defeated Suleiman Pasha, who had succeeded Mehemet All, and there was no further fighting in his front. He entered Rustchuk In February and immediately afterward returned to Russia, turning over his command to General Todleben. The Importance of his command and its achievements have baen overlooked in comparison with the bloodier battles about Plevna, but had Mehemet AH broken through his lines and reached the Zimnltza bridge the safety of the whole Russian army would have been seriously compromised. If not wholly destroyed. On returning to Russia he resumed his command of the guard, but about a year since he was promoted In the place of his uncle, field marshal, the Grand Duke Nicholas, to the most important military command in the empire, namily, that of all the troops In the militcry circumscription or department of St. Petersburg. This command he still retained when hi father was killed. The civil positions which he held before ascending the throne were equally hitrh and important. The barbaric pomp and parade of a Russian coronation, as well as Its celebration In Moscow, so great a distance from the seat of government, always necessitates great preparations, but never has so Ion? an Interval as In the Instance of tae present Czat been placed between the accession and the solemn crowning of the Empror. The ceremony is attended by all the leading men of the empire. KIngdon s. princes and grand dukedoms giving title I manifold to the potentate are represented ;n the ceremony, with i'ew exceptions, each by Its separate crown. These are brouxht out of the cupboards of the preat treasury of Moscow for the occasion, Iq this un
mm
rivaled collection of royal diadems one may count the crown of Kazan, of Astrakan and of G crcla. There, too. is the crown of Poland, blazing with jewel?, mounted on ;t crimson cushion. This, tradition says I the veritable crown worn bv ?he Ladi.-ius. the Sigismunds ani John Sobieskl; but th.i crown of Siberia, which find? a place in th imperial regalia, was manufactured by Jeweler of Moscow to commemorate the conquest of that province unler Ivan th Terrible. The oldest cf all of them Is probably the crown of Constantine Monomachus. which was sent from Constantinople as a present to the "Iord of Kiew" In 1116. Th accession of most Czars and Czarinas ha added a new crown to the regalia. A new crown was mad for Nicholas, and tho separate diadems of Peter the Great, Catharine I and the Empress Elizabeth are historical curiosities. 1V1IC. THE POPE DIES. Scene nnd Formalities Which Attend Ills Deathbed. New York Sun. As soon as it is clear that the Pope must die soon all the cardinals composing tho Sacred College who are in Rome gather at the bedside, and on their knees wait for tha end. The Sacristan Bishop administers tha viaticum and the extreme unction. ih Grand Penitentiary gives absolution, tha Penitential Psalms are then intoned, the Sacristan Bishop pronounces the consecrated formula, the dying Pope, if he ha the strength to do so, gives his benediction to the assembly, and the dirgo of the hymns for the dead continues . to the last. Then the Camerlengo, to make the official record of tho death, with a small silver hammer strlkea three light blows on the dead man's nead and calls him by his Christian name. When in 1S7S the dead Pope was Pius IK (Giovanni Mastal-Ferretti), the Camcrlengo, Cardinal Pecci. the present Pope, after striking the three blows with tha hammer, called "Giovanni! Giovanni! Giovannl!" Then, turning to the assembly, said: "The Pope Is really dead." There upon, while the assembly is kneeling, the Camerlengo intones the De Profundi. Th master of the chambers then removes from the dead Pope's finger the "fisherman's ring" and hands it to the Camerlengo, a symbol of the temporary transfer of the authority of the Holy See. At tha first plenary meeting of the Sacred College, this ring, the seals, and other insignia of oilice connected with the late Pop are broken up and destroyed. Tho temporary sovereignty has passed into tha hands of the Sacred College. In Its choice of a Pope the Sacred College is not limited by any law or regulation to Italians, though it is 37u years Mnca a 3pe of any other nationality has been ei.ed. The last was Adrian Fiorent, a Netherlander, Pope Adrian VI, in 15-22. whose nearest non-Itaiian predecessor wad the infamous Rodrlgo Borgia, Pope Alexander VI, elected the year of Co'umbus's discovery of America, Neither is the college, restricted by law to cardinals or to priest; any faithful Catholic, even though he ba a lavman, Is eligible; the conclave has the whole Catholic world to choose from, but for a precedent for a layman Pope it would have to go baclc to 1C24, when the Patrician Crescentlu became Pope John XIX. The only Indispensable rules are that a majority of all the Cardinals living shall be present and that of those present a majority of twothirds Is required to elect. Thus, if th Sacred College had Us full number of seventy Cardinals, which it rarely has, (tht latest list contains only sixty-two names), thirty-seven of these must be present at the conclave and at least twenty-five ot these would then have to agree on the sam candidate. There were fifty Carolnals preent at the conclave which lected Plus IX and sixty at that which made Leo XIII Pope. Of the sixty-two Cardinals now living who will have the right to elect th next Pope, thirty-two are Italians and thirty belong to other nationalities. The hull Issued to regulate the next Con clave confirms to the Sicred College tha exclusive right to elect the Pope, abiolutely excluding any intervention on the part of the secular power; all previous rules as ta the duties of the civil and municipal magis trates in connection with the Conclave are done away with, leaving the regulation of. all matters concerning it in the hands ot cardinals. Should the Pope die at Rome, the cardinals present must decide at one by a majority vote whether the Conclave shall be held out of Rome and out of Italy, or not. If held in Italy, the moment any pressure Is brought to bear on it either by private persons or by the government, the Conclave must dissolve and reassemble out of Italy. The Pope expresses his personal wish that, considering the peculiar position cf the Holy See, the next Conclave be held out of Italy. ... , . In times past, France, Austria and Spain have vetoed the papal elections, and these countries still claim the right to veto; if any one of them were to try to exercise it. It is very likely that Italy would claim the right, too. The Papal See has never acknowledge the legality of these claims, but the possibility of the interposition of a veto undoubtedly has weight in the seleotlon of a candidate. She Didn't Mean It. Youth's ' Companion. A French lady, staying In America fo some time, was wrestling with the English language. She had made very good progress, she thougnt, and one day accepted an invitation to dine.
