I    OLD ST. PETERS,
THE BODY OP THE DEAD PONTIFF
REMOVED THITHER
WITH      SOLEMN      CEREMONIALS.
No   Monarch  Was   Ever   Followed  to
the Tomb by a More Imposing
Array.
ROME, July 22.—TonigMrthe body
of Leo XIII lies In state In the basilica
of St. Peters/ Beginning tomorrow at
sunrise the people of Rome and those
of alt nations now in the eternal city,
■will be admitted to pay their last farewell. Opportunity for this solemn
tribute will end Saturday.
Dr. Lapponi, in the course of the
day, presented to Cardinal Oreglia a
report of the autopsy which was held,
which showed that there was no sign
of cancer In the pope's body.
At 8 o'clock this evening all was in
readiness to take the body of the pope
from the Vatican* to the basilica of St.
Peters. The mournful procession
gathered around the bier, which was
gently lifted by the Sidiari, who in the
lifetime of Leo XIII had carried him
to the sedia gestatoria. The dead
pontiff was now clad in all the pomp of
his holy office. About him had been
placed the sacerdotal robes used only
when he celebrated a grand mass. The
vestments were' those which he wore
for the'last time In life in that of the
consistory when he confirmed the appointment of Archbishops Farley, of
New York, and Quigley, of Chicago,
June 25 last. The golden, mitre, the
gilded stole, the white cape, the red
chasuble, the pontifical pallum and the
papal tunic, all of which were emblems
of the power wielded by the dead man
tor more than a quarter of a century
and for centuries by his predecessors,
bad been omitted.
Leading the procession as it passed
out of the throne room came the
grooms carrying lighted torches. Behind them, walking with measured
tread, was the aged mace bearers and
other domestics of the papal household.
The picket of the Noble guard and all
the clergy of the Vatican wearing their
surplices followed. Immediately in
front of the' bier the- pontifical silVer
cross was held aloft.-'"Behind the "bier
came the three1 nephews of the-late
pope, Counts Ricardo and Caimillo PSc-
ci and Count. Canarli.
The air was heavy with incense from
the censors swinging -constantly beside
the body. The Franciscan penitentiaries still kept up their unceasing refrain of Intercession.!
At the hall of Palafranlere the cortege came to a standstill. There the
cardinals, who had been waiting in the
hall of the consistory, took their places
immediately behind the nephews. Their
scarlet had been put aside for the violet robes which are only worn when
princes of the church are In mourning.
Once more the procession wtih the
bier, now flanked by the Swiss guards,-
moved on. After the cardinals came
the whole diplomatic boay accredited
to the Vatican and the representatives
of the Kpights of Malta. The latter
were followed by the marshal of the
cpnclaye, Prince Chigi; tbe master of
the holy hospice, Prince Ruspoli, and
the commander of the Noble guards,
Prince, Rospigliosi, all in magnificent
uniforms. Then came the prelates of
the chamber, of Knights of the Cape
and Sword in their medieval Spanish
.robes. The Noble and Swiss palatine
guards brought up the rear. The United
States was represented In the procession by Monsignor Thomas Kennedy,
rector of the American college.
No monarch was ever followed to the
tomb by a more imposing array. Led
by the cardinals and prelates the
clergy recited prayers and psalms for
the dead as they slowly entered the
Sistine chapel, where the chapter and
clergy of St. Peters awaited the procession. The latter formally received
and took possession of the body. The
torch, mace and cross bearers started
forward, giving an opportunity to the
chapter to take up a position immedi-
' ately preceding the bier.
The final stage of bearing "the prisoner of the Vatican" to his resting place
then commenced.
From the Sistine chapel the procession wound out around the loggia, immortalized by Raphael, encircled the
court of San Damazo and descended the
private staircase, still chanting, into
the basilica.
The moment the flaring torches,
which, still led the-cortege, entered St.
Peters, the choir, which was waiting
there, commenced to sing in sorrowful cadence, "Libera Me Domine."
Monsignor Carcani, the canon of St.
Peters, solemnly sprinkled holy water
over Leo's body and pronounced absolution. In the chapelle ardente the
body was reverently stretched .behind
the iron gates and two' members of the
Noble guard took . up positions on
either side of the bier.
The procession then re-formed and
returned to the Vatican.
The body of the dead pope lies tonight on the high catafalque with his
slippered feet protruding through the
gates to be kissed by the faithful when
they will be admitted to the chapel tomorrow and the two following days.
While the remains of the pope were
being carried into St. Peters this evening the private ceremony of depositing
the urin taken from the viscera to the
churches of St. Vincent and Anastasius
was taking place.
A curious hitch occurred when the
solemn procession arrived at the door
of the special depository In crypt. It
was stopped, as the key was not to be
found. The attendants "hunted high
and low and finally were obliged to
break down the door. The depository
had not been opened since 1846 as, con--
trary to custom, the viscera of Plus IX
are at St. Peters. The rector of the
church of St. Vincent and Anastasius
will ask that the viscera of Pius IX
be transferred to his church also to
order to make the sequence complete.

ING MONUMENTS.
BUILDING  AND MANUFACTURING
Westheimer's Store Room Overhauled
The New Check-Draft System.
Other Notes.
Notices are posted to the Titusville
plant of the American Radiator company stating that agreeable to the expressed desire of the men of the different departments, the management
has decided to close the plant Saturdays
for the remainder of July and fine
whole of August. This will afford the
men about six days of vacation during
the hot weather. Pay day during this
period will occur on. Friday. The arrangement seems.to give the best of
satisfaction to the employes.
Ground was broken Wednesday for
a new store house for the Harris OI
and Grease works. It will be located
between the main line of the D., A. V.
& P. R. R. and a switch south- of this
line a short distance east of the depot.
The building will be square, sixty feet
on a side, and divided with a driveway
through the "center. This arrangement will permit of loading cars, either
from .the main line or from the switch.
Wagons can also be loaded in the building. 'Stone is already on the ground for
the foundations, .,
Work on the Colin & Oakleaf building is almost at a standstill because of
the difficulty of securing carpenters-to
go ahead with the work. New plans
will be made as It has been decided not
to build according to the first speciflca-
lions. When contractors and builders,
who are now very busy, shall have finished some of the work they now have
on hand, an endeavor will be -made to
Interest- them in the construction of
this building, but there Is some probability that the firm may decide to do
the work under its own personal supervision.  "
Westheimer's shoe store has been
undergoing Improvements for the past
two weeks and .when-completed :Wil-l- bef|
one of the handsomest rooms in ithe
city. The^fronMias been taken out and
& new one Installed, changing the opening to the west sii'.e of the building.
The windows are large and. handsome
and back ot them there is-a space four
feet in width for displaying goods. Ten
electric lights and a reflector will make
the window display show to a good ad-,
vantage. The panel work at the back
is of solid oak and will be finished with'
a high polish. All of the cherry cases
will be retouched and the woodwork
finish through the store will be
thoroughly overhauled. The new paper
is dark green on tHe walls with a wide
ecru border at the top. The floor of
the ladies' department is covered with
linoleum. The lighting, which hitherto
has been done with electricity alone,
has been changed and combination
chandeliers installed. The Olmsted Art
and Decorative company has charge of
the papering and painting, P. A. Forsworn the carpenter work and S. E.
Roblson will look after the wiring.
William Horner, of North Franklin street, the well known marble cutter and tombstone dealer, is Installing
some new machinery to his shop which -
will greatly facilitate certain details
of his work. An air compressor, manufactured by the Ingersoll-Sergeant
Drill company, of New Yonc, an air re-
cetver and a five horse power gas engine, with chisels and drills, complete
the outfit. It- Is operated on a well
known principal of pneumatics. The
air compressor, acting to the same
manner as a pump, fills the receiving
tank in which an air pressure of sixty
pounds to the square inch Is maintained. This tank has a diameter of
eighteen inches and a height of six feet.
Pipes extend from It to any part of the
shop desired. A rubber nose connects
with the pipes and the clamp and
socket in which chisels and drills are
held is fastened at the end of • the
hose. The compressed air, released
through different openings- as the tool
revolves, furnishes power to drive the
chisel with a maximum speed of 3,000
strokes per minute. The machinery
will be Installed within two weeks. Its
principal advantage is In the rapidity
with which lettering and similar work
to stone can be performed.
The United States Guarantee and Fi-
delity company of Baltimore has secured the rights of a check draft to
take the place of a letter ot credit for
commercial travelers and tourists. The
plan is one by which a traveler may
check against his company or against
an individual bank account wherever
he may be without identification. The
United States Guarantee and Fidelity
company guarantees payment.. The
idea Is a new one and was patented bulT
recently. Some time ago the company
offered prizes to its accredited representatives in different cities of the
United States, Canada and Mexico- for
the best answers to ten questions hearing upon the check draft. Kirkpatrick
and Kehnard, of Toronto, Canada, were
first in,a field of 1,000 aspirants and A.
P. Cooley, of the firm of Barber &
Cooley, of Titusville, was second. The
former prize was $100 and the latter $50.
Mr. Cooley's answers to the questions
were printed fully to a recent issue of
the Bulletin, the official paper of the
company. He has received his check
tor the amount of the prize, and is now
receiving the congratulations of his
friends upon this'latest evidence of his
ability in the banking anc insurance
business. *

YACHTS YESTERDAY.
TWO OF THE CRAFTS GROUNDED
Top Mast of Constitution Snapped Off.
Reliance Had a Walk-Over—Boats
Break Even.
. NEWPORT, R. I., July 22.—The last
run of the New York Yacht club
cruise back from Vineyard Haven today was almost as disappointing as
that of yesterday, at least so far as
the ninety-footers were concerned.
Within a mile of the start the Reliance
and Columbia struck bottom on the
eastern end of the middle ground to
Vineyard Sound, and only the quick
turn of the wheel saved the Constitution. The Reliance came off within
two minutes, while Columbia held on
to "the shoal by a strong tide, stuck
there for over an hour, being finally
assisted off apparently uninjured, but
of course out of the race. The other
two boats kept on, but on getting out
beyond Gay Head, a stiff puff of Wind
snapped off the topmast of the Constitution. After the wreck had been
cleared away she proceeded and
crossed the finish line nearly three-
quarters of an hour after the Reliance,
so that the latter boat had practically
a walkover.
The cruise ends with two wins
to the credit of both the Reliance and
Constitution.
BOSTON BOY WITH THE
CHAMPION THE LIMIT.
"Young Corbett" Could Not Put Jimmy
Briggs Out in Ten Rounds.
BOSTON, July 22.—While "Young
Corbett," champion featherweight of
the world, got the decision over Jimmy
Briggs in their ten-round bout tonight
before the Tammany club, the Boston
boy gained considerable prestige by
staying the limit. It was the second
time the two had met and each time
Briggs managed So stay with the
champion the full length of the bout
An agreement to break clean was costly to Corbett, who does his greatest
execution When fastened to his opponent.
Briggs used excellent ring judgment
and kept away from Corbett's. swings
or ducked when he was pulled in
close. , As a consequence Corbett
failed, to land any damaging blows and
Briggs was fresh at the finish. Corbett's poor condition was evident, as
he refused to set a fast pace. Briggs
grew more confident as the bout progressed and went at the champion
with left swing to the body, but was
content to let the champion do the
worrying. For five rounds the bout
was slow, Corbett simply stabbing his
left, trying, to get near enough to reach
over his right, but he .never got a
chance, as Briggs was ready to back
away or duck under the powerful
blows.
