LOUIS, Mo., March 28.—The general Services in the Evangelical Church | inatcations of the reports recetved here con- at Turin. HUNGARIAN REPRESENTATIVES ATTEND Remains to Reach Buda Pesth To- morrow. GENERAL FOREIGN MATTERS TURIN, Italy, March 28.—The funeral services over the remains of Louis Kossuth were held this morning at the Evangelical Church, beginning at 9 o'clock. The city was crowded with sightseers and the streets presented a most remark- able appoarance, owing to the immense number of Hungarians in full national cos- tume, who were to be seen on all sides. The streets through which the funeral procession passed were lined by the munici- pal guards, and on all sides were to be seen mourning emblems and crape-draped flags. The coffin, inside the church, rested on a handsome catafalque and was covered with flowers. In addition, the church was filled with floral emblems sent from all parts of Hungary, as well as from many points in Europe. Standing picturesquely around the cata- falque was a guard of honor of Hungarian students in Hungarian costume. This guard of honor will accompany the remains to Buda Pesth, in company with the repre- sentatives of the municipality of that city. Owing to the fact that the church cculd not hold one-tenth of the Hungarians as- sembled in the city, much less the repre- ‘tatives of the many foreign nations who desired to do honor to the memory of Kos- suth, only the chief representatives of the Hungarian delegations and the leading rep- resentatives of foreign nations were eble | to obtain admittance. Near the catafalque were the deceased's | sons, his sister and his nephews. The pastor of the church, Pastore Peyrot, delivered the funeral address in Italian, eulogizing Kossuth's private virtues and patriotic devotion to Hungary. The choir then sang a choral hymn, writ- ten by Luther, and an anthem, composed by Palestrina. The Procession. After the simple ceremonies the coffin was placed upon a funeral car, drawn by four horses, and the funeral procession moved slowly toward the railroad station. The cortege was headed by a detachment of mounted municipal guards, followed by the municipal band, playing funeral marches; the mayor of Turin and the deputy mayor of Buda Pesth and Deputy Rohonczy, repre- senting the Hungarian diet. Then came the pallbearers, and after them followed the funeral car. Behind the coffin were the sons and other relatives of the great Hungarian, and next came deputations from Hungarian societies, from countless Italian societies and from the Garibaldian associations. These able Masonic lodges, and behind them were the main body of the Hungarians and other | people who took part in the procession. In all there were twenty banners, draped with crape, carried by the delegations which took part. Oa reaching the railrcad station the cof- fin was placed in the mortuary, and after the mayor of Turia had delivered a most syr pathetic oration he formally handed over the remains to Gen. Turr Markus, who received then with a graceful speech on behalf of the municipality of Buda- Pesth. The ceremonies were terminated with a few speeches delivered by men of minor rank. The train bearing the Hungarian delegations will leave Turin for Buda- Pesth at 4 o'clock this afternoon, and the special train bearing the remains of Kos- suth back to his native land will leave at 9 p.m. Both traiis are expected to reach Buda Pesth early tcmcrrow morning. COLLIDED IN THE NIGHT. Wreck of the British Steamer Yesso and Four Drowned. LONDON, March 28.—The British steam- er Yesso, Capt. Strachen, bound from New- port for Baltimore, in ballast, collided at 3 o'clock this morning with the schooner Lizzie Wilce, off Ifracombe. The Yesso sank within a short time after the vessels came together. Capt. Strachen and the steamer’s cook and two of the crew were drowred. The Lizzie Wilce is badly dam- aged. The Yesso was built at Sunderland, Eng- land, in 1880. She registered 1,381 tons, 228.8 feet long, 35 feet beam and was 7 feet deep. W. & T. W. Pinkney are the owners. Mcst of the Yesso’s crew were asleep when the collision occurred, and_hardly had time to scramble on deck. The re- mainder of the steamer’s crew escaped on board the schooner. COMMANDER CAMERON'S FALL, His Wrist Wes Sprained a He Couldn't Control His Horse. LONDON, March 28.—The coroner's jury, which has been investigating the cirew stances attending the death, on Monday last, near Soulbury, Bedfordshire, of Com- mander Verney Lovett Cameron, the dis- tinguished African explorer, found today that the commander sprained his wrist, and that he was thus unable to control his horse when the animal bolted. The immediate cause of the commander's death was con- cussion of the brain, caused by falling upon his head when thrown from his horse. WILL SMASH THE PARTY WEST. A Foreigner’s View of a Bland Bill Veto. LONDON, March 28.—The Chronicle, eom- menting upon the report that President Cleveland has decided to veto the seig- niorage bill, says that such action will al- most certainly smash his party in the states west of the Mississippi river. The paper further says that it will be dependent upon the question of a new tariff restoring or not restoring the prosperity of the United States whether the expected republican victory in November next will be succeeded by a republican presidential triumph in 1896. At present things look that way. _--— FOOT RACE WITH SPORTS. Exciting Climax to a Prize Fight in Indiana, LOGANSPORT, Ind., March 28.—Edward Corey of Crawfordsville and John Batley (colored) of Logansport fought a finish fight for a purse of $300 last night at Bruce's lake, twenty miles north of here. was badly whipped in two rounds and re- fused to proceed, claiming a foul. On the way back to Logansport the sher- iff and deputy of Fulton county were on the train with an insane patient for the Logans- port hospital, and hearing the talk of the sports, attempted to capture the principals, and a scuffle ensued, the crowd blocking the aisles and preventing the sheriff from get- house, including | “2g at the chiefs. When the train slowed up in Logansport the principals jumped and ran. The crowd kept the officers until the station was reached, when they sought the aid of the police. ¥ The principals were spotted, but had four | blocks the start of the poss a without fail, | e he Posses of police, detectives, constables, sheriffs and deputies and an exciting foot race was added to the | sport. No captures have been reported. oS Ss A Victory for the Republicans. YONKERS, N.

OMAHA, Neb., March 28.—Acting upon an opinion furnished by the county at- torney Chief of Police Seavy has given instructions to the police to notify the proprietors of all pool rooms and the own- ers and operators of nickel-in-the-slot ma- up shop within five duys. Thomas Caroll, the lottery man, was arrested last night in pursuance of this crusade, were | followed by the representatives of innumer- | Corey | cerning the winter wheat crop in Kansas, Nebraska and Oklahoma are that the crop will be very good. The reports from Okla- homa are especially favorable. The acreage in Kansas and Nebraska is said to be very large. These reports come to the grain men, and in the main are considered reli- able, The indications at El Dorado, Kan., are that the peaches are damaged there, but other fruit is still unhurt. At Cairo, Ill, the disastrous effects of the cold snap of the past four days are now fully apparent. Wheat is badly damaged. A special to the Republic from Chatta- nooga,Tenn., says: The extreme cold weath- er of the last two days will cost truck farm- ers and fruit raisers in Hamilton county alone $100,000, It will take $500,000 to cover all damage to fruit, early vegetables, wheat and oats in that section of northern Geor- gia, northern Alabama and lower and east- ern Tennessee immediately contiguous to Chattanooga. McClure,assistant horticulturist of the Uni- versity of Illinois agricultural experiment station, gives it as his opinion that the cold snap of the past two days has done com- paratively little damage to fruit in that section of Illinois. There is no reason for thinking it has been injured, he says. From Asheville, Ill., comes the report that wheat, which bad been more promising than in years before, has been blighted, and excel- lent bir doubt if half a crop will be harvest OMAHA, Neb,, March 28.—A special to the Bee from Douglas, Wyo., says: The first train in since the big storm reached here yesterday. Estimates based on reports from Casper and surrounding counties show the loss of range sheep will be close to 12 |per cent. There was no total !oss of stock. The ioss of range cattle is great. Range riders report hundreds of dead animals scattered over the snow-covered surface. Another big storm, coming from the rorth- west, broke on this section last evening. It has been storming since 3 o'clock. The wind is strong and cold. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., March 28—A miniature blizzard struck this city last night, and from present indications spring weather is far away. Early this morning @ fine snow began falling and continued throughout the greater part of the day. It is accompanied by a high wind of the | whirl variety, and outdoor life is well nigh \intolerable. If rain does not intervene the ae will likely measure several inches by night. a SOME LIVELY FIGHTS. LIKELY. Contests for Congressional Nomina- tions in Virgi Special Dispatch to The Evening Star: RICHMOND, Va., March 28.—The con- gressional campaign in Virginia will be one of the liveliest and most hotly contested in the history of the state. It is not settled yet whether or not the republicans, as an organization, will place candidates in the field, but several republicans will run in op- position to the nominees of the other par- ties. The populists will have candidates in every district. The most interesting feature of the con- test is the opposition in the democratic |Tanks to some of the present Representa- tives for the democratic nominations. At least five of the present Congressmen will |be strongly opposed before the congres- |sional conventions this summer. Among | those are Paul C. Edmunds of the sixth di | trict, James F. Epes of the fourth distric’ D. Gardner Tyler of the second, Claude A: Swanson of the fifth and H. St. George Tucker of the tenth. The opposition to Mr. Tyler will come |from Norfolk city, because they claim that Norfolk and vicinity is geographically en- titled to the Representative. Considerable opposition has developed to Mr. Epes. The movement, it is said, grows [out of the fact that the democrats belie |that he is not the strongest candidate that can be selected. Many of the democrats openly declare that Mr. Epes’ inactivity in Congress, as well as in the matter of se- |curing federal patronage for his district, precludes the possibility of his again secur- |ing the nomination. Some of the names | prominently mentioned as opponents of Mr. Epes for the nomination are ex-Gov. Mc- Kinaey of Farmville, State Senator Thomas N. Williams and Col. W. T. Atkins cf | Mecklenberg. A personal friend of ex-Gov. McKinney told The Star correspondent today that he was quite sure that the ex-governcr would not be a candidate for Congress if |had to make any effort to secure the nom |nation. He thinks the governor is disposed to accept it if it comes to him without the | jasking; furthermore, he would not oppose | | his warm personal friend, Col. Atkins, who, (it will be remembered, was a member of the |former’s staff when he was governor. | No considerable opposition has developed in the fifth district against Mr. Swanson, |who is serving his first term in Congress. | The friends of Eugene Withers of Danville. |however, are urging him to oppose Mr. Swanson for the nomination, and it is not unlikely that he will do so. | "The opposition to Mr. Edmunds in the |sixth district {s reaching considerable pro- | portions, and it looks now as if he will have a hard fight to get a renomination. The principal opponent 1s Maj. Peter J. Otey of Lynchburg. The most interesting fight of all for dem- ocratic nominations is that in the tenth dis- trict, where State Senator H. D. Flood of Appomattox 1s opposing Mr. Tucker. This will undoubtedly be a test of strength be- tween the Martin and Lee factions in the democratic party. Mr. Tucker was one of Gen, Fitz Lee's most ardent advocates in fight for the United States senatorship, while Mr. Flood was one of Mr. Martin's |leaders, and made the nominating speech |before the democratic caucus in which Mr. Martin won the prize. It is said that Mr. Wm. A. Anderson of Rockbridge and State Senator C. P. Jones of Highland will also be in the race, but as yet they have devel- oped no considerable strength. —_— NOT IN MINNESOTA. The Corbett-Jackson Fight Will Have to Be Fought Elsewhere. > ST. PAUL, Minn., March 28—A prom- inent jurist, in an it-terview lest night, ex- pressed his views on the qvesticn of fights, as follows: “Certain deluded sports of St. Paul, with a few dcllars in their pockets and several thousand in their minds, have announced to the courtry that they are willing to make up a purse of Corbett-Jackson fight. In spite of this |there will be no prize fight in South St. |Panl or any other part of Minnesota, |'There is no loophole in the law passed by |the last legislature, and if any attempt is made to bring off a contest at South St. Paul Gov. place with the state militia, 1,000 of the members of which car be poured out of St. Peul and Minnecpolis an hour after the issue of orders. Contests of a limited num- ber of rounds are now allowed in Minneap- olis and two or three other cities of the state, but any attempt to pull off a fight |between Corbett and Jackson anywhere in this state will certainly meet the fate of |the Hall-Fitzsimmons affair July 21, 1891." || CHICAGO, March 28.—“Parson” Davies has issued a long reply to the “official statement” issued from Cincinnati by James J. Corbett. The letter denies that Jackson, as claimed by Corbett, should feel flattered by the notice taken of him by Ccrbett, and declares that all the colored man wishes is to hav> the fight come off in this country, if possible, but in any place where a fair show will be given him. Davies asks Corbett to name a time when jhe can meet Jackson in a glove contest. gobcenets caries ANOTHER WAR LIKELY. Sheepmen and Cattlemen in Wyomt Again at Odds. STEAMBOATS SPRINGS, Col, March 28—The cattlemen of Routt | county, Col. and Carbon county, Wyo., have organized to make war on the sheap- men next summer. They claim that thou- sands of cattle have died this winter on account of the sheep having destroyed the via Wolcott, any sheep to graze in valley next summer. If the sheepmen re- sist it is feared trouble will ensue of as | serious nature as the Wyoming “rustler” war of two years ago. a The Correct Hands! From the Philadelphia Times. ‘The very correct handshake fs neither the pump-handle away up in the air, or | the old-fashioned clasp on a level with the | waist line, but it is from heart to heart, and is not a clasp, but rather a hooking tcgether of the fingers, while a slight move- ment after the fingers are thus formed is all that fashion demands. It isn’t pretty, lit doesn’t seem cordial, but it is new; there- fore, until some other style is discovered this one will probably reign in the circles of the elect. ke. CHAMPAIGN, IIL, March 28.—George W. | HIS MORNING DRINK An Officer Loses a Oase Before Judge Kimball. The Long Police Court Line This Morning—Sentences and Those Who Were Sentenced. Policeman Redgrave went to a wedding last night, and so did Cabman John E. Duncan. The latter is anative of the Emerald Isle, and he has enough Irish wit about him to entertain a wedding party. John had a glorious time, and in such good spirits was he when he left the gay and festive scene that he made a night of it. Soon after the opening hour of the old first ward saloons, John thought he needed an “eye-opener,” and he entered a saloon and proceeded to pay a nickel or a dime for it. Standing at the bar (not the bar of justice) was the policeman, and Duncan says he was taking a drink. The police- man says nothing. The officer and the cabman were on friendly terms, and Duncan, without ex- tending an invitation to the limb of law to join him, ventured the remark, “I didn’t see you at the wedding last night. “You were not there,” the officer re- sponded. “You're a —— —— lar,” the cabman re- torted, so the policeman says. “I'm a policeman,” said Redgrave to him, but Duncan was too full to appreciate the distinction between his remark and the office's response. “And you are arrested, added Redgrave, exhibiting: his badge. Duncan saw no reason why a friendly conversation should get him in trouble, and he objected to going. “And I had a good deal of trouble in fetching him out of the place,” said the officer to Judge Kimball this morning. Duncan looked as though he had been attending a wedding or some other cele- bration when he appeared in court and told Judge Kimball his tale of woe. “But I was at the wedding,” said Dun- can, “and I ed out all night. That was the reason I went in the saloon this morn- ing.

Lasselle, the lawy who wag released on his personal bonds a | few days ago, upon condition that he would stop drinking, failed to keep his promise and this morning he appeared in court in a nervous and ehaky condition. He en- joyed two of “Parson” Hughes’ coffee cock- tails this moruing, and after taking the nerve tonic he stcod hefore Judge Kimball and made another plea for liberty. “I have some clients to meet at 10 o'clock,” he said, “and if your nonor will let me go this morning, I'll keep sober and appear tomorrow for sentence.” So pressing was his business engagement that Judge Kimball said he would grant the request. “But, you honor,” said the prisoner, after his request had been granted, “I will have to take one drink today, because it is rec- cessary. If, however, your honor says I must not take a drink, of course, I will have to grin and bear it.” Judge Kimball told him to do the best he could and appear tomorrow. “Guilty, I reckon,” was what Andrew Jackson said, when arraigned for vagrancy.

John McKenny could not wait for the coming of Coxey’s army of peace, and so he went to the Capitol yesterday and made the front steps his headquarters, There he solicited aid, so a witness said. He did not enter the building and make a formal demand on Congress, but will prob- ably ge there when the army reaches here. John had been in court before, and Judge Kimball asked him how long it had been since his last appearance. “Six weeks,” was his response. “You may have thirty days this time,” said the court. This will give him an op- peut to join the army upon its arrival ere. Noah Burke's brass buttons gave him the appearance of a special policeman, but he was on the wrong side of the fence. He had used profane language last night, but could not pay his fine this morning, Joseph Brown said “Yes,” and it cost him $5. He wes in a house on C street last night, where he was arrested for profane language. “I guess what the policeman says is so,” said John Butler, an old colored man, charged with profanity, and the usual fine was imposed. Adeline Harris and Molly Harris, her sis- ter, also plead guilty, and went down. Benjamin Carroll, a colored watchman, who failed to properly guard a cork in a pint bottle of whisky, was arrested because of his loud conduct. “I found the bottle in his pocket,” said the officer, “but half of the liquor was gone.”” “Five dollars.” George Washington brought up the rear of the line. He did not have $5, and went down for two weeks. ——_—=——— Simple Enough. | From the Boston Home Journal. The most useful inventions are frequently the simplest. The father of the famous Sir Robert Peel was a cotton spinner, in a comparatively small way, until he suddenly went straight ahead of all his competitors. The earliest cotton spinning machinery gave serious trouble through filaments of cottun adhering to the bobbins, thus in- volving frequent stoppages to clear the ma- chinery. The wages of the operatives were affected by these delays, but it was no- ticed that one man in the works always drew full pay. His loom never stopped. “The on-looker tells me your bobbins are | always clean,” said Mr. Peel to him one day. “Ay, they be,” said the man, whose name was Dick Ferguson. “How do you manage it, Dick?” “Why, you see, Master Peel, it’s sort o° secret. 1f I tow’d yo’d be as wise as I am. ‘hat’s so,” said Peel, smiling in re- sponse to Dick’s knowing chuckle. “I'd give you something to know.

From the Ladies’ Home Companion.

It Was Made From the Original, New in Nuremburg—Its Historic Value Great. One of the most interesting of the edu- cational exhibits at the world’s fair was a fae simile of the first terrestrial globe, made by Martin Benhaim in the historic year 1492. This was contributed to the historical collection In the Convent la Ra- bida by the National Museum in this city, to which it was only a few days ago re- turned and where it has again been rein- stalled. This reproduction of the most valuable relic of ancient geographical conception was made for the museum at a great ex- pense by E. de Grandpre of Paris in strict fac simile of the origiaal, which is still in Nuremburg, where it was made by Martin Benhaim. while on a visit to that city between the years 1491 and 1493. The descendants of Benhaim have been on sev- eral occasions offered a handsome sum for the relic, but all offers have been refused, and even the loan of it could not be ob- tained. It is the earliest globe known to geogra- phers, and considering the close relationship which it bears to the discovery of America, its value to the scientists of this country alone is twofold. It measures about twenty- one inches in diameter, and is made of pasteboard, covered with parchment, on which are designed nistdWe pictures, with their legends written in old German. It is valuable for its illustration of the dispro- portions of the geographical computations of Claudius Ptolemy, the great Helleno- Egyptian explorer of the second century A. D., who was the first to prove the world a globe, and who compiled the first “uni- versal geography,” which continued to be the standani text book used by explorers until the sixteenth century. Ptolemy is also said to have been the originator of the terms “latitude” and “longitude.” The information of Marco Polo, the Ven- etian who explored as far east as China, 200 years before Columbus, and that of Sir John Mandeville, who made extensive travels in the east 100 years later, it is said, has also been brought to bear upcn the computations of proportions, which made this the most complete chart of its time. The ridiculous forms given to the great divisions of the eastern continent, not to mention the smaller .slanis, make this conception ludicrous to the modern eye, and the many fantastic representations of supposed sea-monsters, ich adorn the space of the ocean, indicate the supersti- tions of the fearful navigators of that day. The whole of the western continent is, of course, omitted, and Columbus’ idea of the location of India, at the western extrem- ity of the Atlantic, is vividly shown. The first meridian, which today is locat- ed in Washington, or Greenwich, by Ameri- can sailors, is shown, in this globe, to pass through the Island of Maderia, about one degree east of the Island of Ferro, where the even more ancient navigators began to reckon, believing that to be the western- most edge of the earth. Dr. Thomas Wilson, curator ef the sec- tion of Prehistoric Anthropology, in the Smithsonian Institution, was the member of the board of judges of the anthropolog- ieal department of the Columbian exposi- tion who awarded this exhibit a medal. In connection with this award Mr. Wilson says: “As a monument of geography it is of the highest importance, being the only document that has come down to us in this form, embodying the geographical ideas of its author and those of his gifted con- temporaries, Toscanelli, Columbus, and oth- ers. This fac simile is said to be an exact re- production of the original, in all details of color and scale. It is now to be seen in the north hall of the National Museum, at the end nearest the rotunda. ———_+e+—___ The Slanderer Punished. From the ‘Boston Home Journal. Semi-barbaric law is sometimes more just than that of more civilized countries, A story is told of an aged man who once appeared before the cadi at Damascus. He was in distress, “What can I do for you this morning?” asked the cadi. “Hassan, the rich merchant, has done my daughter, Fatima, a grievous injury. She was engaged to be married to a young man whom she loved. She was as lovely as the rose, but Hassan spread evil reports about her, and he who was to have mar- ried her abandoned her in consequence of these false reports. She is now broken in | health and spirits and longs for death. Justice, oh, cadi, let justice prevail!” The cadi wrote out a capias, placed it in the hands of his deputy and in a short time Hassan was brought into court. He plead- ed guilty. He admitted that he had spread the injurious reports and that he knew they were false. He signed a complete retraction, in which he confessed that he | Was a liar and a slanderer. The court took the case under advise- | ment. Next day the decision was ren- dered. “Hassan, stand up,” said the cadi. “You have done this unfortunate girl a great in- jury. You. have robbed her of her good name, which was all she had. The slight- est punishment for robbery is the loss of your, ears. The executioner will cut off your"ears to remind you that you must not cut off the reputation of others.” At the given signal the public executioner lopped off both of Hassan’s ears. “I am not done with you yet, Hassan,” said the cadt. “Mercy! Mercy!” pleaded the unfortu- nate man, “have I not restored the girl's reputation by my public retraction?” “Yes, you have restored her reputation ter a fashion, and now I propose to re- store your ears after a fashion. The ex- ecutioner will proceed to sew on your ears again.” And it was done. FINANCIAL. WASHINGTON, D.
