A Love TrRgedJ-sutctde the Sequel Of

From The St. Lonls Republican. 90.1


We mentioned SONG weeks aga the circnm-
who crossed over by one Of the terry. boats
and drowned herself Within full yfsW Of the
crowd Of passengers who were returning BIZ
the snmc boat It WAS also mentioned that
the unfortunate young woman Was supposed
10 have been disappointed in love by msn
named Antoine Funkhouser. a strange Sc
qnel to that sad event occurred yesterday
morning In the suicide Of her lover. Il Is
ssld the two we're engaged to oe married, but
that some difference grew up between them
as to when the marIiage should take place,
the gitl insisting on its carly consummation,
md Fnnkhonser desiring to postpone 1t for
some time. The supposition that he was
t1ttltug with her affections, Is believed By
many to have been the cause ofhercom hitting
suicide. aubsequt Mt to her burial he pur-'
chaRed the lot In the cemetery in which she
had been inferred, and also one Immediately
adjoining, having the deed to both made in tis
own name, and giving directions to have him
ter bis own decease- On Saturday last, he
crossed the river at the upper ford, in com
pony With two friends, and cal1sd In at the
saloon Of Abbot & Robinson, In Venice. Af
ter remaining there lew moments, Funk-
huuser stepped, ont OF the saloon, requesting
his friends to remain nntil his return. From
the saloon he went to the river, some dis
tante below, and seated himself on the very
log on which lIsa lGanced sat before throwing
herseH into tho water. While there, be was
observed to take something from his bosom
upon which. he. appeared 10 look for some
time. AFTER waiting In the saloon canssler-
able time, bis comrades started in search Of
him. On coming to the log alluded to, they
were Rstonlshed to find his dead body. By
Its side lay the likeness Of his deceased aff-
anced. From appearances 1t would seem
that Funk khouser bad gone to the log alluded
to, then took out the likeness, and having
taken farewell Of all that remained to him
OF her whom he had loved, opened his shirt
bosom, and deliberately eliot himself through
the heattl This, We believe, Is a correct yer
zion OF this singular suicide, and being true,
forms one Of the most remarkable lore TRACE

Remark ahle EluctuaIlon In American
Securities In the London Market.

Within the laat three days of the week end
Ing the 24th Of June, there appears, by ths
China's news, received last night, to have
been rise of three. and a fan c| four per cent.
In tlye-tWenties In the London market. Up
to Friday, according to Mesars. Barlnga' cir
cular. the rise Was steady. The List report
received here Was up to Wednesday,, the
91st, when the. highest quotation Was 71sl.
Within fortJ-e.gh1 hours of the date OF that
report, the Price appesrs to have eliminated
at i459, and thence declined until at the close
Of Saturday the quotation Is reported as low
as 70A.
The telegram by the China Is not very spe-
c{fjc as to the Influence leading more directly
to th backward turn In the market. But the
decline is connected with the arrival OF
! the Pers.a With late American ad7ices. Ths
Petsa took out the published proclamation
of the President. announcing the removal Of
restrictions on commerce cast Of the Missts-
Bppl. The tendency of that, however, was
certainly favorable to rise rather than de-
cline In onr securities. There is a probability
that the Persia took ont also, among the Of
fetal dispatches, the text Of 3fr. Stewards
letter to thu Navy. Department, In which the
exceptIonable character Of the British With
