The downtown loaders, however, hare not indicated what the attitude of tho twenty flva members of tha House from Philadelphia, who are their followers will be when th local option bill la voted upon. The Varea aro still "on tha fenca" In rerard to the liquor question, Juet na they wore when local option waa defeated In tho last session, and thoy steadfastly refuse to sjlvo any Indication of their plum on tha Isnuo In the coming: session. Stata Senator Hdwln IL Vare, when naked today whether ho would throw his Upport to local option next year, declined to commit himself. That an alliance against Penrose Is being formid with the local optlonlsts, howoer, Waa stated authoritatively today. The union In being: made. It wan declared, not to show tho local option strength In the Legislature, but to orcnnlio alt of tho Statewide mntl-Penrose forcon In bntli branches, and, If possible, prevent tha settlor Benttor from controllng tha Legislature. Senator Penroso clalmn 102 membera of the House. Thero are 160 Ilopubltcinn, thirtr-seven Democrat and one Socialist, a total of 307 members. The faction which will control the Legislature- must have elghty-flvo of tho 169 Republican votes In order to elect tha Bpoakor and, with him, thd other office of the House. According to Vara headquarters thero aro elxty Republican members of the House who are pledged to vote for local option. The Vares claim between twonty-flvo and thirty of the forty-ono members from Philadel phia. So the downtown leadern are counting upon tha help of tho local optlonlsts to baat penroso In tho speakership (iKlit. The closeness of tho fight Is shown by tho fact that at least stx of tho Republicans who aro 'pledged to voto for tho bill aro counted aa Penrose followers. Should they decide to support the Penroso candldato, tho Vare-Brumbaugh faction would havo small chance of electing tho Speaker. POSSIBLE CANDIDATES It Is also being pointed out by tha locnl optlonlsts that the sixty Ilopubtlcan votes credited to them by tho Varos do not repre sent their full strength. They claim many of tho Democratic otos, In addition to the Republicans. The Vares as yet have not placed a candldato for Speaker In tho field, but friends of Thomas P. McNlchol nnd Edwin E, Cox nro actively booming thorn. Richard J. Baldwin Is tho active Penrose candidate, and Iras declared that ho waa In the speakership tight to a finish. The Penroso leaders today expressed confidence In their ability to organize the Legislature and announced their plans. They have agreed to stick to tha old caucus rulo of selecting tho Speaker of tho House and other officers of both IIouso and Senate. The call for the Scmtto caucus will be Issued by Senator William C, Sproul, of Delaware County, tha senior member of tha upper houso In point of service, nnd the call for the Housa caucus will bo Issued by Henry Qransback, Ht., tho oldest mem ber of that body.

Why are all thosa buildings hung with draped flags? I asked my companion a distinguished Ilerr Doctor nnd member of tho Austrian bar as wo drove along the streets of Vienna. I had Just arrived from Paris on the Oriental Express nnd was on my way to the Hotel Bristol on the ningstrasse. "Ah," ho said, "It Is very sad! our be loved Prlnco Otto died this morning, ot all tha Ilnpsburgs ha was the greatest favorite and every ono mourns for mm, and ho wai so handsome," "What was the causo of his deathr i asked. ' For propriety's sake. If for no other rea son, wo will omit tho answer they IooK al aomo things so differently In Kurono- It might bo well here to explain that Prlnco Otto was a nephew of Emperor 1'mncls Joseph of Austria-HUngnry and father to the present heir to tho dual throna . . , Prince Otto was no Sunday school teacher. That was plainly apparent from tha many tales In common circulation nbout his numerous escapades In and out of tho Hotel Eacher, whero he spent most of his time, and In other well-known Vlonneso re sorts. Ilut, as Kipling would say, "thals nnothcr Btory." THOOPS IN PROCESSION. During tho next few dayn troops camo pouring Into Vienna to tnko part In tha funornl Under ordinary circumstances the sidewalks In Vienna nro protty well crowded with handsome, , well-groomed of ficers wearing tholr well-fitting unlformi and clanking sworda, but now they wero supercrowded. And each ono ot them wore a broad black band of cloth on hi arm, and many loyal subject civilians alio adopted this badge of mourning Tho day of the funornl arrived. It wns damp and disagreeable, but not cold, nnd nt noon the rain stopped falling. Distance don't uoem groat In Vlenna( ns so many of tho great public places nro lo cated on tho ningstrasse, Tho Ilofburg Palace, the CJrand Opera Houso, tho Hotel Bristol nnd tho Church of the Capuchin, whero In tho po.it havo been laid to rest the remains of tho chiefs of tho housa of Hapsburg, until there Is now scarcely room for any more all seem within a stone's throw of each other. Through the thoughtful courtesy of the concierge head portor or majordomo of the Hotel llrlstol, who concluded "Hcrr American" would like to oeo tho funeral, I obtained for k comparatively small sum a seat In a window almost directly op posite the Church of tho Capuchins, and had a good ilew of everything that went on. On every street and side street from the Ilofburg Talace to tho church troops, mounted nnd on foot, crowded nlmost overy Inch ot space except tho centre of tho streets along which tho funoral procession was to pass. BELLS BEGIN TO TOLIj. At the appointed hour all the bolls In tho churches and tho palaco began tolling. Thero nro two entrances to the Church of the Capuchins; ono which was used to receive tho Imperial guests and mourn oi s wns opposite tho window whoro I sat. nnd tho other was on another street a block distant. When tha bells began tolling, an excep tionally tall officer, of apparently high rank, plumed and helmeted. and wearing ery long boots, white doeskin breeches and a uniform of such magnificence as can only be seen In the hlghost ranks ot the Alls tro Hungarian army, drove up to tho church ontrance, where already a few oftlcerB of loss rank had arrived Thoy wore ready to do orderly service for this as he after ward proved to bo master of coremonles Almost immediately tho Imperial car riages began to urrlva with distinguished envoys and representatives from tho royal and Imperial courts of Europe, the chief mourners nnd tho Grand Dukes and nobility ot tha Dual Empire In all the most gor geous nnd magnificent trapping which in dlcato rnnk and power. As each carriage drove up to the church door tho master of ceremonies assisted ench distinguished occupant to alight, gave orders to the coachman whero to drlvo, nnd rsenrted the party to tho church door. About threo or four carriages contained female members ot the family In deep mourning. Just ns the last carriage drove awaj from the church I believe it brought the Duke of Cumberland tha funeral cortege came Into vlow along another street which ran nt right angles to that on whloh tha carriages arrived from the palace. Thla street led past the other entrance to the Church of tha Capuchins. The funeral car. and tho Imperial state carriages In the funeral procession proper must have belonged to the eighteenth century. With their scarlet and gold and Plata glass decorations they would hava dona credit to any circus parade. MANY FINE JIQnSEa Tha first stata roach was occupied by a special papal representative, It was drawn by six magnificently caparisoned horses, led by servants ot the Imperial household, wlv were dressed In ancient costumes with tabards embroidered In gold with the Imperial arms. Then camo the funornl car, drawn by IJ superb horses with gorgeous trappings, each opa led by a servant ot (he Imperial household, wth tho ancient gold-embroidered tabards, while two lines of similarly dressed servants walked alongside bearing lighted candles about eight feet tall. After the funeral car came soveral car riages of state, then earns the deputations, military, parliamentary, municipal and civic I noticed that each soldier wore a sprig of apruoa fir In his helmet, whloh I after? ward found was an emblem of mourning. When the funeral car arrived at the church, door, the body was carried In. and after tha ceremonies was deposited With the other HapBburgs, On the following day the old Emperor Francis Joseph was to review the troops that had been brought to Vienna beforo their departure, Back of the Opera House and near the Ilofburg Palace Is a large open place somewhat Irregular In shape, A. short street from the palaoe leads to It. and It was there that the review was to take place. All morning the various troops kept ar riving In this plaeo, (111 about 10 o'clock every Inch of space was occupied with soldiers and spectators, except the centre, where a band ot about 200 pieces waa massed. The'street to the palace was also kept clean At tha stroke of 13 o'clock, neon, $ia old Umperor, surrounded by the Arehoukes, hla Bold marshals and other high military of fleers, came walking slowly down tbe little street from the palace. EMPEnOR REVIEWS TR00P3. Instantly. like a huge organ, the musi cians sounded the welt-known strains of the Austrian national anthem, and evry soldier and civilian doffed hata or drew swords at salute.
