;oL . OCHILTREE AND MS. FIELD. jlistaken View of a Great Financier and Millionaire. \-r.w York, May 7. —While 1 always that Cyrus W. Field was a most ~t ; v oi-ntleiirm, i was und*r the impres -0 that it would be about us haul for a j, n .it connected in business with him, to preach Uini during business hours as it if 1 1)0 for a Nihilist to obtain an audience th the Czar of Russia. This impression . r l te ,l from an attempt to interview him U pon a matter of great importance , ut uliioh I knew thut he was not disin i'led to talk, bnt he would not spare a iniit ■ from his business. In fact, I have of the leading financiers of the untrv to call upon him with schemes that eventually became interested in and at ; st li,. refused an audience. The other v he broke this rule and gave two hours his valuable time to listen to a number of >i Thomas P. Ochiltree’s stories. Senator Hearst, of California, and a num „f other wealthy men are interested in nvne in South Carolina which they dred to call to Mr. Field’s attention. Mr. , ar st knowing what a difficult matter it ■is to see Mr. Field, delegated Col. Ochiltree present the matter to him, as well as Mr. nianuel Motz, who is the Superintendent the mine. Mr. Motz, like Col. Ochiltree, fond of telling ft good yarn, and he is •idy at any time to give an important isiness matter second place to a story, uyhow, the other day Ochiltree and Motz ent to Mr. Field’s office and sent in their mis In their turn they were received by ie millionaire. Mr. Field seemed to be de to meet Ochiltree and to consider it relief from his business cares. Mr. Field ippened to mention El Paso, Texas, when 01. Ochiltree remarked: “That puts me in find of a story.” •T shall never forget,” he continued, “the st time that I was in El Paso. At that ine it was filled with border ruffians, and lore was no more value placed on human Ie than on the existence of a member of the nimal creation. After breakfast one morn ,, i we nt iuto a barber shop to get shaved, he barber was a long-haired individual, id over the mirror hung a rifle and on ich side of it a revolver. The barber new who I was very well, and was irticularly polite. After putting the theronmy face he happened to glance round, and suddenly said: ‘O, you will ive to excuse me a moment, Col. Ochiltree, leiv is acoupleof men outside who have said lev intended to kill me.’ Without saying nv more the barber reached up, took down is rifle, fired two shots, and both of the len, I afterwards learned, fell dead. He ime back and proceeded to shave me in the tost unconcerned, methodical manner, idle, in ail indifferent way, he told me bout’what he had done. It seemed like ours while he was shaving me, and I never fit so relieved in my life as when I got out t the chair.” Just as Col. Ochiltree concluded his story ie cards of a number of business men were nit into Mr. Field, and he sent out word bat they would have to wait. Then Mr. [otz insisted upon telling a story. He said bat he had 800 monkeys employed on a mall plantation adjoining his farm. “Six monkeys,” said Mr. Motz, “can ick as much cotton as one negro, and it rets practically nothing to keep them, but finally had to let them go. The colored nd white help around there formed an rganizition which boycotted me. Finally, was made a social outcast. The neighbors efusod to associate with me and considered w the meanest white man in that part of be country. So I was cohipelled to remove he monkey labor and employ other help, ’nen I used the monkeys to scratch gravel amy mine. The first time I let off a blast t terrified them so that there was a regular tampede, and over half of thorn disappeared; he others I have shipped up here to New fork, and I have been selling them to Italian rgan grinders.” When this story was finished nearly an tour of Mr. Field's valuable time had been aken up and cards continued to be sent into lim, so that Col. Ochiltree and his friend dr Motz retired without explaining the ibiect of their visit. When they came back to the hotel, where Senator Hearst was awaiting them, they were asked what success they had. “Well, to tell the truth,’’ said Col. Ochil tree, “Motz and I got to telling Field so many stories and occupied so much of his time that I was really ashamed to use any more of it talking business to him, so I didn’t mention the matter.” The practical California Senator expressed a great lack of con*’lence in the business [ability of his two agents, but added, on hearing some of the stories, that they were pretty good hands at retailing stale stories. Harry Walker. SPANISH FUNERAL CUSTOM. Strange Scenes Witnessed in the Cemetery at Seville. From a Letter in the London Referee. Funerals iu Si>ain are conducted in a maimer which is in the highest degree origi nal. When you die you are got rid of as soon as possible. The Spaniards have the same horror of death surroundings as the Italians, but they go a great deal further. As quickly a.s possible—sometimes within an hour—the body is placed in an elaborate enlin made of metal and painted to imitate Burble. Some of these “caskets” am smothered in gilt ornaments of a most elaborate character. All sii s arc kept, ready at the great funeral s*tublishmont.s. The coffins open length "i'e. The lid is on hinges anil is locked ®ith a key. The poorer people are buried in wooden coffins, covered with various < le signs in colored ribbons. Children’s coffins tie made in white and blue anil are deco rated like a bon-bon box. Coffins of this w-scription sold almost everywhere in the South. You see them hanging up out tee the shops by dozens. I wont over the premises of one of the biggest undertaking concerns in Spam. It a public company and is caned “La nmeraria.” I never saw such magnificence jj} n| y hfe. Some of the funeral cars arc built in the style of the great gilt and glass cars which figure in a circus procession through a country town. The drivers and footmen are dressed in gorgeous liveries that make you blink to look at them. Some w the liveries that I was shown cost over *I,OOO each. They positively blazed with fold. A grand first-class funeral with a ectinue of footmen and officials in a dazzling pageant. Asa rule, the corpse, even when so mag nificently conducted to its last home, is un attended by any relatives, Hpaniards finish " ith their dead, as a rule, when the church ceremony is over. Fow corpses arc* accom panied to the cemetery, except by the uu wrtaker’s men. But in ordinary cases the cofim is placed in a yellow open car and anveu up to the cemetery by a gentleman in a short jacket and peukod cap. The driver smokes his cigarette and cracks his 'vmp as he hums his favorite tune. The ndiculous always lives next door to the sub- The gr -*> ■... and the horrible are nrkt cousins. I "‘ll describe two that I witnessed in one day at the great cemetery at 3evi!la. Four attlo barefooted boys arrive at the cetnc ffy gates. Between thorn they carry a tittle blue nnd white coffin. They jog uoug, chatting anil laughing, up the long m enue of trees. Presently they see sorne taing which attracts their attention—a bird ln a tree. Down they drop the coffin by the ; ' 1 , and off they scamper across "* c ' grass to the tree. They pick up stones and Ik, gin to throw nr, the In the process they quarrel altout something and two of the boys have a fight, in the meantime the coffin lies in the road way I walk up to it, and through the gins, let into the lid f see the dead child’s ico. It has been dead perhaps twelve mans 0 the features are unchanged and it appears to be calmly sleeping. Heverul do nas* inc.Boonc takes any notice of the coffin in t,|u* road. One old gentleman nearly tumbles over it, and swears. It is evi dently nothing unusual. 1 rescntly three ragged lioys have ar ra,lgcd their little difference, return and up the coffin. Two of them have i lighted eigarett.se. They carry their burden right across the cemetery to”a little house, where two or three men with brassnumbers on their caps are smokinglcigarett.se. Hero they show a paper and one of the men. pick ing up a spade, telis the boys to follow nim. Off they go, jogging the coffin now this way and now that, and I follow them. V\ e come to a long line of brick vaults, borne are empty: some are filled up to the top with what I presume to be mold. The grave-digger turns over the loose earth with ms spade, and strikes a coffin here and there. It is too full. He moves on to another bricked square, pushes his spade in, and savs there is just room. He digs a little hole and lays the coffin flush with the top of the brickwork. Then he throws a few spadefuls of earth from a mound close by, and the ceremony is over. There are thousands of these bricked squares in the cemetery, and each contains a score of coffins. There is no stone over the top, only the loose brown earth. Home of them are so full that the earth has to be piled up to cover the coffin, and thus the coffin is actually above ground. The next funeral arrived as I was leaving the cemetery. A car, driven by a man smoking a cigarette, eame up. It was fol lowed by a cab from which alighted an old gentleman, also smoking a cigarette. The car pulled up at the gate of the “deposito ry,” a little house in the grounds arranged for the reception of people who have died too late to be buried that day. The guardian of the house, cigarette in mouth, flings open the doors, speaks to the gentleman, and then calls for somebody to come. A man with a cigarette in his mouth now ap proaches. He and the ear driver lift out the coffin and carry it into the house and lay it on the trestles. They then light a candle at the head and foot, and come out and shut the door. Off drives the car, the man lighting another cigarette, and the gentleman to whom the corpse belongs strolls across the cemetery with the grave digger to choose “his place.” The grave digger turns up a little earth in one brick square, and then in another. “Too full,” savs the gentleman, puffing his cigarette. He goes from square to square and pokes at the loose earth with his cane. At last he settles on a square which is only half full. ’ 'That will do,” he says, and then he returns to his cab and drives a way. I make inquiries of the keeper of the ‘ ‘de pository.” The body inside the coffin is the gentleman’s wife. She died last night. She will be buried to-morrow morning. “Will the gentleman return to see her buried?” “Oh, no: he has left her here. The rest con cerns us.” TYe find it difficult to understand this leaving the dead to be buried without cere mony and without a friendly watcher, but, the Spaniards think nothing of it. They bid their dead good-by with the lest prayer. The interment is no ceremony at ail to them. The dead are hurried out of the house as soon as passible. Sometimes they are sent to the undertaker's “depository” within a couple of hours of their decease, and the friends see no more of them. This, with the Southern horror of a corpse, one can un derstand. But the cigarette smoking of hearse drivers, cemetery attendants and gravediggers while handling the coffin strikes the foreign looker-on as, to say the least of it, lacking an ordinary respect for the deal. Among the poor there is a very free-and easy way of getting their dead buried. One day outside a great cemetery I came upon three common coffins lying on the ground near the gate. Seeing that the coffins were occupied I started back in horror, and asked what in heaven’s name such an exhibition meant. “O,” said iny Spanish friend, “they are poor people who cannot afford to be buried yet. There is a little fee to be paid. Someone will come by presently and pay for the coffin to be put away as ail act of charity. Unburied coffins are bad enough, but what do you think of dead children hung up out side the cemetery gates, waiting for some kind soul to pay for them to be put into the earth? The sight is not uncommon in the South of Spain, where every form and shape of 1 eggary is rampant. Sometimes the friends of a small corpse, instead of asking charity, will smuggle it into the cemetery hidden under a cloak, and, when no one is looking, drop it into one of the big square graves I have told you about, and kirk a little loose earth over .it. There are plenty ol' uneolfined dead under the loose earth in the great cemetery of Seville. A BIG BAG- OF DEER. Col. Gilder Tells a Wonderful Story About a Day of Sport. From the Few York Star. One of the stories told with pride by Col. Giider and Lieut . Griffiths, and which is vouched for by them, was of a wonderful bag of deer on the Nelson river, while they were on the road to Hudson Bay last Octo ber. Their voyage by boat had been unin terrupted to a point 200 miles southwest of York Factory, when suddenly one night the river froze over, and navigation was closed for the season. They were delayed a day or two in preparing sleds for the remainder of the journey, and the ice became several inches thick, as the weather had developed a regular cold snap. , While in camp one morning they were awakened aboutdavlight I>y a distant crack ling on the ice, and a sniffing nnd snorting in the frosty air. Looking in the direction of the mysterious voices they wore aston ished to behold a magnificent herd of rein deer crossing the river on the ice. Tho ani mals were emigrating southward to find a good winter feeding ground. Thu herd was scattered along for quito a distance, the animals being two or three abreast, and in order so regular a.s to attract attention for the resemblance to cavalry on a march. A big, bold buck was in the lead, and the sight of so much wild game in one body was a rare treat to the travelers, who hail been accustomed to buy their venison in Wash ington Market at high prices. The large branching antlers of the deer glistened in the first slant rays of the morning sun while they tossed their hoads proudly in tho air. There were not less than ‘2OO animals iiv the herd, and their sides looked sleek and fat. Every man in camp was aroused and ex cited in an instant,, ami they seized their gums and commenced to crawl around in the snow to gain advantageous positions in case the herd should come near. One of the Indians hoisted a red handkerchief on a [Mile, the animals sighted it at once and stopped. After stamping the ground for awhile and sniffing the air the curiosity of the deer got the better of them, and they gradually ap proached the camp in a compact inass to within 100 yards. At a prearranged signal from Col. Gilder there was a tremendous ex plosion, which echoed far and wide in the forests, and the twelve brooch-loading Win chester rifles commenced their deadly work. Round after round was fired, the leaden hail crashing into tho terrop-strieken ani mals as long ns one remained in sight. Rein deer fell right anil left and in twos and threes and half dozens until there was a <lark mass of carcasses and the snow was wot with blood for rods around. When the smoke cleared away the ten Indian boatmen drew their dangerous looking knives and rushed among the dead ami wounded, cut ting the throats of the deer to make sure of them and to benefit the meat by blood-let ting. Several poor animals with broken legs ami injured bucks crawled into the woods, but the Indians took the trail and captured them. The carcasses were brought to camp and dressed and cached upon a high platform of poles to await the return trip. There were just forty-eight dead reindeer in that bog, and Lieut. Griffiths will make his affidavit to the fact. It, was tho biggest day for sport recorded during tho whole four months’ travel, and probably its equal has never been known anywhere around tho world. Even tho celebrated Gordon Cum min;; could not boast of forty-eight doer Imgg<*d in one day. These reindeer were fat, and the moat ivas excellent eating. The animals were intimated to weigh a 1 unit USO pounds each, the weight being readily ascer tained by balancing a man of that known weight atone end of a plank, and u deer on the other end. The venison was placed on the platform to keep tho wolves from de vouring it, nnd when the travelers returned several weeks later the meat was found frozen hard and well preserved. THE MORNING NEWS: MONDAY, MAY 9, 1887, BOMB DAY IN THE JAIL. Anarchists Interviewed on the Anni versary of the Riot. from the Chicago Mail. “Yes, this is the anniversary of the Hay market riot, but I don’t see that the event is of any great moment,” said A. R. Par sons to a reporter May, I. “At least, the event concerns me but little,” he added. “It was not heralded with any particular change in my present lot.” “Do you think there has been a change in public sentiment regarding your case?” “You will have to go ana see Bonfleld about public opinion on the Haymarket it 15 as you call it. I have uothing to say on that subject, or any other to the Chicago newspapers. They tell nothing but a pack of lies. I have quit talking to the capital istic press,” and with these words the arch- Anarchist turned to his dark-skinned spouse who had entered the Jail. In appearance and manner Parsons is very like he was dur ing the long trial. If he has changed any it is only to become more arrogant and louder in his abuse of the press and of the police, and he calls both capitalistic hirelings. He conversed with liis wife during most of the hour morning recess. August .Spies had little to sav. This little was iu the same vein as his fellow-prisoner. He has grown quite pale and thin during his long imprisonment. Miss Nina Van Zandt is his most frequent caller. She usu ally brings with her some isweet-scentcd flowers and some toothsome delicacies. Honest Sam Fielden was more talkative. “There have been some important changes during the past year,” he said. “Individ ually, there was some spring cleaning and general dusting, but no moving out on May 1 nor any change in my residence. My number is still ‘cell 2d, Cook county jail.’ There has been a great change, though, in the ideas of the masses on the question of labor in politics. The subject nas become a more distinct class issue. The events of the past year have opened up the eves of the people. They see that labor as well as capi tal lias pome rights and that it requires careful management of these rights to avoid serious trout >le. It is the clashing of these varied interests that has caused all the pain of the past and the turmoil of the present. On account of it lain locked up in this jail. But better days are owning. The wail of the laboring classes is loud and must be heard. “Am I writing a book? No. I put in my time mostly in reading the Waver! y novels, the writings of Charles Dickens, English history, a translation of Virgil, and some other classical works. I read the papers, 100, carefully, but one cannot depend upon everything be reads in the papers nowa days.” Fielden bears up bravely under his long in carceration and talks pleasantly ami intelli gently to all who call upon him. His beard is much longer than it was a year ago, but otherwise he is but littlo changed. Adolph Fischer has paled considerably since his confinement, but lie says he is feel ing- well and is looking for better days to come. “The people have become less vicious in their views regarding us,” he said. “The masses are more willing to give us a fair trial, and many a one now half doubts our guilt. I believe myself, if the police were honest, they would say that Bonfleld was responsible for the Haymarket riot. Gill a few minutes before some self-responsib, individual threw the bomb, you remember, Mr. Harrison was present and expressed himself that all seemed quiet, and that there was no immediate danger of trouble. It was the bringing of the squads of police down upon that meeting that caused the trouble.’ Michael Schwab is lookifig well, and puts in his leisure hours iu reading and writing. On a shelf beside his eot is a trans lation of Homer, a I able. Plutarch's Lives, the first annual report of the Commissioner of Labor, Buckle's “History of Civilization,” and some other books. George Engel is get ting fat, and Louis Lingg is looking pale. Neither of them had anything to say. The best humored of the lot was Neebe. He was just putting the last artistic touches to an ingeniously contrived bureau, with many compartments, which he had whittled out of cigar boxes, when a reporter began to talk with him. “Yes, this is the anniversary of the Hay market,” he said, “but I don’t know any thing more about it than you do. lam sacrificed to a prejudice. Grinnell said to me before the trial that a prominent Ger man had told him I was a dangerous man. That man was a brewer and wanted to put me away in here where I could not work among his men. I made the brewers pay 5140,000 a year more wages, and that bail something to do with my trial. It lias been a pretty long year for me.” DOG-KISSING COURTIER3. How, Being Rebuffed by the Czar, They Fondle His Mastiff. Paris tetter in London Truth. The Czar was here incognito last winter. He had with him .*>n aid-de-camp, a secre tary, a valet and a dog. A.s he gave strin gent orders that his incognito was to be respected by his suite, the gentlemen fell back upon the mastiff as an objective for the reverence which they were in the habit of lavishing on the master. The aid-dc camp of the late Czar astonished the French Generals, when tbut ill-starred sovereign was lodged at the Elysee, by kissing his arm from the wrist up to the shoulder whenever he said anything to them which was kind or gracious. Alexander 111. docs not suffer such close contact; and, a.s old habits cannot Ik* rooted out in a day, the couriiers paid to the dog the homage they used to render to its master. The Czar, when here incognito, lodged iu the Rue de in Boetie in a flat lent him by a Russian, An English friend, who resides in the same house, watched closely the movement of his Imperial fellow-lodger and his suite. He tells me that Alexander was just like a freshly emancipated school boy,so overjoyed was he at being freed from the dread of dy namite, and tiiat he expressed his state of feelings in gleeful manifestations and boyish practical jokes. The dog shared liis jov, and the two courtiers followed, not the Czar’s but the dog’s lead. MKDICAL.
