SENATE ELEVATOR New One to Replace the Relic of a Bygone Age. INNOVATION UPON SENATORIAL CUSTOM Passing of the Grave and Sedate From the Stage. THE YOUNGER ELEMENT There is something almost starting in the announcement, which has been made in The Star, that there is to be a new fast elevator in the Senate wing of the Capitol. It is almost as startling as it would be to say that they are going to have new rules and practices in the Senate. It is an inno- vation upon the time-honored slowness of things senatorial. The elevator to be replaced has been in use many years. It was the first put in the Capitol, and is the one designed exclusively for senators, and during the sessions of the Senate none but senators and news- paper correspondents use it. It is slower tLan justice in equity, or the Senate in leg- islation. In all these years it has never been improved upon, because its slowness suited the Senate. It corresponds to the temperament of the dignified statesmen who have been raised by it deliberately from one floor to another. Its removal merks an epoch in the history of the Sen- CCNGRESSICNAL HGTEL AND ANNEX, Capitol Hin, bington, D.C. Always cool and deligttful. Reduced rates for the summer and fall. jy24-1m UNDERTAKERS.

The body of Pom Kwang Soh, the for- mer Corean minister to this country, who died last Friday, was cremated yesterday according to the expressed wish of the deceased, and his ashes placed in the keep- ing of the present minister, Chin Pom Ye. Later they may be returned to Corea. At 3.30 o'clock yesterday afternoon the body was taken from his 14th street resi- dence, where it had lain in state, and con- veyed to Lee’s crematory, followed by a long line of carriages containing personal friends and prominent members of the Blavatsky branch of the Theosophical So- ciety, of which Mr. Soh was a member. The brief and simple funeral vices were conducted by George M. Coffin, president of the society. The casket was draped with a silk American flag, and on it had also been placed the robes of state worn by Mr. Soh during his official career here. At either end of the coffin were crosses of white and pink roses, which had been sent by Prince Min and Mr. Pak. Among those admitted to the chapel were Prince Min, Prince Evi Wha, the second son of the present King of Corea, in full court uniforms, Mr. Pak, Mr. Suah, a num- ber of Corean students and a number of the members of the Theosophical Society. Among the members of the Theosophical Seciety who delivered eulogies were Ralph L. Lerch and Col. R. E. Whitman, U. 8. A. The latter delivered a touching eulogy, in which he spoke of the splendid qualities of the dead statesman. He touched on the mysteries of death, and compared life to a tent, easily blown from its moorings. At the conclusion of the ceremonies, for which there is no regular form, prepara- tions were made for the cremation. The casket was carried into the room adjoining the crematorium.- The metal handles and fixings were removed from the casket, and it was wrapped in an alum sheet. The spectators then stepped to the doors of the crematorium and saw the casket consigned to the retort, in which the heat was in- tense, the temperature running to about 2,500 degrees. In two hours the retort was allowed to cool, and it was found that per- fect incineration had taken place. The Corean Minister Was Absent. The allegation has been published that Cim Pom Ye, the Corean minister, gave the memory of Pom Kwang Soh a grievous insult by refusing to attend the funeral ceremony. It was added that not only ‘wes there shown marked disrespect to Mr. Soh’s memory, but the royal family of Corea itself was included in the alleged insult by the action of the minister, as two royal princes of Corea were visiting with Mr. Soh at the time of his death and were present at the funeral. Two days before the death of Mr. Soh, it is stated in connection with the story, Minister Ye called at his residence, but Mr. Soh refused to see Him, and he went away enraged. Notwithstanding this re- buff, it is stated, the court etiquette of Corea made it imperative that Minister Ye should attend the funeral of the dead statesman. The publication predicts that the so-called insult will be considered a grievous offense by the Corean govern- qent, and may result in the speedy recall of Minister Ye. A Star reporter who inquired at the Co- rean legation this afternoon whether the absence of Minister Ye from the funeral was intended as an insult to the memory of the deceased, received this reply from the secretary of the legation. “The minister did not attend the funeral. He stated that he would remain at home because of illness.” w= PARK STAGE HELD UP. First Robbery of the Ki Famous Yellowstone. A dispatch has been received by the Sec- retary of the Interior, announcing the fact that the first stage robbery which ever occurred in the Yellowstone National Park took place there Saturday. The telegtam was as follows: “FORT YELLOWSTONE, Wyo., Aug. 14. “Transportation stage robbed by two men on Sal Futuara Plateau this morn- ing; $500 taken.

Banks Nicholson of the fifth precinct met with a serious accident while responding to a call about 3:30 o'clock yesterday morning. When near the cor- ner of 4th and K streets southeast the horse he was driving stumbled and fell. The sudden stopping of the wagon caused the driver to lose his seat, and the animal started off before he could regain his feet. Two wheels of the wagon passed over him, injuring him so much that he had to be taken to Providence Hospital for treat- ment. 2 es Suit for Sale and Partition. ‘A suit in equity has been filed in the District Supreme Court by Isaac E., Philip R. and Albert EH.

The ME ate—the punctuation point to close a pe- riod. The New Order of Affairs. The new character that is coming upon the Senate is first disclosed in this. A quicker circulation of the blood, a hastier step, a more energetic purpose which is im- patient of delay, is being awakened by the appearance of new men, and by the pass- ing of thore old, sedate senators who uve a peculiar character to the body. The departcre of such men as Sherman, Pal- mer, Pugh, Call, Voorhe: Cameron, Vilas, and most of all, Harris, has a marked ef- fect upon the character of the Senate. Sull more than by their absence is the Senate affected by the presence of men like Foraker, Warren, Mason, Clark, Ba- con, Turner, Hanna, Marion, Butler, Can- non, Wellington, Mantle and Tillman, som: representing youth and nervous energy, scme business directness of method, and others a disregard for formalities. For these may years the Senate elevator suited. It mow suits no longer, and in another year or so, still less would it do. The irfiuence of the young and active is overcoming that of the ola and sedate, and this is the first act of their domination. At the elevator door is a good place to study the senatorial character. The oli- fashicred senator does not like to be hur- ried. Still less does he like to seem to be hurried. The difference between the mas- ter and the servant is that one is master of his time and movements, and the other must take commands and show his servili- ty by his expedition and promptness. T has rendered the clevator problem a very delicate one fer the Senate. Year after year, as new men fresh from an active life have come into the Senate, the complaints of this slow method of getting from one floor to another have multiplied, but of- fended dignity has always, until now, checked the suggestion of change. Old-Fashioned Senators. An old-fashioned statesman would admit that the elevator was slow—extremely slow—in coming in response to his call, but would declare that it moved quite fast enough when he got on it. What he want- ed was a vehicle which would appear at once, with a bound from below or a sud- den fall from the floor above, the instant h2 touched the button, but which, as soon as he was safely on, would move away de- likerately and with easy motion in the direction desired. The first step toward accommodating the mcre energetic men was to put in another part of the building a public elevator which would move somewhat faster than the other. This unfortunately compelled senators who wanted to hurry to take their chances with the crowd of plain citi- zens, with the possibility of having to wait. The annoyance of this rendered an im- provement in the old elevator inevitable. Genius Equal to the Task. Happily, the inventive genius of America is equal even to the eccentric requirements of a senator. The new elevator which is to be put in will respond to a whim. By touching one electric button it can be made to go slow enough to rival its predecessor. By touching another it can be made to tumble or to jump at the rate of 250 feet in a minute. A dream will be realized. When a senator in the basement sounds a call the elevator may drop instantly from the gallery and land gently at his feet, like a hawk tumbling from the clouds upon its prey. Then it can hoist him as slowly and deliberately as his fancy directs. The only trouble will arise when a slow senator and a fast senator get on together, or when a slow senator happens to be on bourd when the hurry-up call is sounded on an- other floor. These things may lead to some confusion and a little irritation. Thinking of the peculiar whimsicalness of senators recalls an incident in which the late Senator Harris figured. As every one knows, he was one of the most sensitive, purctilious and dictatorial men in the Sen- ate. He would bristle up like a porcupine in a minute, and his capacity for swearing is a thing of official record. An offense to his dignity was next to an offense against his honor. Senator Harris’ Com; One day he went to one of the chief offi- cers of the Senate in white heat of passion. In the most picturesque language he de- manded the immediate dismissal of one of the guardians of the lobby. “The fellow has insulted me,” he said. “I demand his immediate discharge.” “Surely, if he has insulted you, senator, he shall be put off the force at once,” was the prompt reply. “May I ask in what way he has insulted you?” “He ordered me to take off my ha‘ “He ordered you to take off your hat! Is that possible?” o The senator hesitated a minute, with his jaw set tight. ‘To be exact,” he replied, “he did not order me to take my hat off, but told me that I had my hat on. “Was he respectful in his manner?” the official asked. “Why, of course, sir, he was respectful.” “Then, senator, he was onty doing his duty. He is placed in the ladies’ reception room to see that the proprieties are ob- served.” The senator looked very hard at the offi- cial for a minute, and then said, with great calmness and suavity: “Please come with me, I spoke harshly toe the th te it int Leading the way, the senator went into the reception room and called the offend- ing servitor up to him. Then, looking over the people assembled in the room, he picked out all he could identify as having been there when he abused the man, and called them to him. “Now, sir,” he said, addressing the man, “I acted like a blackguard to you a few minutes ago, because you were doing your duty. I want to apologize to you in the presence of these people, and say that I am ashamed of my conduct.” ‘With that he turned on his heel and went into the Senate chamber. ——-— o+___ NOT SO GREAT AS EXPECTED. y - 5 STATE POPS OLD NORTH Meeting of State Committee, With Butler in Control, Stirring Address Insucd ©: Supporters of Senator Pritchard. Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. RALEIGH, August 14, 1897, The populist state committee has met here, and with it Senator Butler, Congress- men Fowler, Strowd and Shuford. Discus- ston was prolonged. Senator Butler dom- inated the meeting. His suggestions were follcwed in all particulars. The assertion is made by committeemen that the party has not lost strength in North Carolina. Senator Butler wants to krow if any populists have become dem- ocrats or republicans. The coler tine—white supremacy—was discussed. Three or four members urged that in the declaration of principles which it was decided should be issued something very positive should be said along the line that the white race must govern Nest Carolina. The great majority demurred, and thought it inopportune now to make such a declaration. The member who was 89 strenuously urging this course frankly said the action of the majority was be- cause they “did not know how the part might jimp.” He could not more happily have expressed populist uncertai of action. Declaration of Principles. The declaraticn of principles which it issued is in the nature of an address. It 1s long, but the pitch of it is as follows: “We earnestly believe that if ev true pepulist 12 the state will actively push the work of organization our party will at- tract to its ranks thousands of others wha are disgusted and dissatisfied with the ccnduct of the two old parties. We be- Neve the sentiment of the people of the state to be in favor of a redaction of freights and passenger rates to a low fig urge, corresponding with prices prevailing under the single gold standard, which waa foisted upon the people of the’ co: by me s of fraud and biibery. reaffirm the conde tha “ninety-nine. ar lease’ of the North Car- olina railroad, and we shall use our best efforts to have said lease annulled, until its validity shall have been passed «pon by our state courts. For a more effective and equitable con- trol and reduction of the encroachments of railrcad corporations we suggest that the railroad commissioners should be elect- d by a direct vote of the people. In national ters we shall continue to labor zeslou for the complete re- monetization of silver at the legal ratio of 16 to 1; for. the destruction of monster trusts that are today sapping mining the life of the republic: ernment ownership of the railro a rigid civil service law, to the the people's rights and liberties shall not be trampled upon, as under present man- agement, by said corporations; for t abolition of national banks and the issu- arce of all money by the na al govern- ment. “To wake good the foregoing of principles we shall in the next cz awful means to aid nd und io’ paign use every us in accomplishing these reforms, and to that end we invite the co-operation of men of all parties, that we may be sstal in the prosecution of this work.” Butler on a Speaking Tour. Senator Butler yesterday began a speak- ing tour in Piedmont, N. C., and his op ing speech was at Wadesboro. He declared he did not come to speak to men “set in their politics,” and took occasion to de- nounce the twenty-two pepulists in the leg- islature who voted for Senator Pritchard last January as “traitors who were not pcpulists at heart,” and added: “But the populist party will not allow such cattle. No party can be trusted which will not drive out traitors.” He said that not since 1865, until the nomination of W. J. Bryan, had the democratic party nominated a dem- ocrat who was a better democrat than Lincoln; that they went to Bryan and whooped for hit, but at heart did not want him elected, and were glad McKinley was elected, and now they have set themselves at work against another nomination of Bryan. The senator denounced the democratic platform in Maryland as “a straddl one to please the McKinle demor 8. He made the asrertion that democratic rewspapers in this state which have been at odds have held a secret correspondence and agreed to drop all ues ex pt the ld ones—negro supremacy and the tariff. He further asserted that while the demo- crats have been crying “negro!” the ratl- ways have captured the state On the Matter of Trusts. Senator Butler went on to “Now, my friends, there ts a national ques- tion, that of trusts, that will be prominent in the next campaign. All parties are going to curse them. Mr. Cleveland, in his last inaugural address, cried against them, but what did it amount to? McKinley, a man elected by trusts, like Cleveland, denounced trusts, and what did it amount to? The question is dodged. They say that first the State has the power to destroy trusts; then Congress. The trusts cannot live without such denunciation by their agent like McKinley and Cleveland. Now a tru isa scre on the business of the country, like a cancer on a person's body. I was shocked the other day to learn that a leading min- ister and college president in this state was in favor of trusts and went so far as to call them a blessing.” In conclusion he said: “I am asked: ‘Are you going to fuse with the republicans or democratS next year? In the it legisia- ture the democrats. excep.ing a tew, went over to the monopolies. So did most of the republicans, and a few black sheep in the populist party. They t back on their pledges. In the mext legislature we are go- ing to fight for the same principles de- feated in the last by these traitors. We are going on the stump .nd tell how the forty populists stood for principles and fought for a reduction of freight rates, passenger rates, to do away with fre passes, gold notes and the like. Now w: are going before the people and plead with them to send good and honest men that will pledge themselves on the reform ques- tions and stand by their pledges. We want the best men—men that are honest. Now, I, for one, um ready to join any party and elect such men. What we want is honest men, who are right and straight. I will get in the middle of the road and ask all good men to come with me.” Liked by Republicans. The republican leaders like the populist declaration. So says Hiram L. Grant, one of Senator Pritchard's chief supporters, who may become state chairman of the party. Senator Butler and Governor Russell haa a two hours’ conference. They are very near together politically. The democrats who are willing to speak out say it is absolutely infamous that the 30,000 populists are able“to keep the bal- ance of power and dominate North Caro- lina politics. And insist that they have ne higher ambition than this. ——_— WAS PROBABLY CETTI’s BALLOON. Steamer Konghalfdan Reports Sight- ing One This Morninz. The steamer Konghalfdan, which has just arrived at Stavanger, Norway, reports that at 4:50 a.m. Saturday she sighted between Haugesurd and Ryvarden a large balloon going ecast-south-erst at an altitude of 1,500 feet.
