his mother, under the auspices Of Yerba
Buena Lodge OF Odd Fellows, OF which
deceased was member. Several thou
sand persons gathered in and around the
house, many of whom, after the service,
awaited themselves of the opportunity to
take last look at the features Of him
who filled so prominent place in the
annals of local affairs. The Odd Fellows
were largely represented, as also was the
press of the city.
At the sand lot, to-day, no mention
was made of the Kalloch.De Young af-
fair. The speakers, it is understood were
acting under instructions from the Ward
Presidents.
The rumors that seem to have gotten
abroad of great excitement in this city
and danger of violence are utterly I'M
founded. There has been no excitement,
except that naturally attendant upon
such tragedy, and any violence is alb.
solutely unthought of. On the contrary,
considering the prominence of the parties
in the affair, the community has mani.
tested what might almost be considered
apathy so far as any demonstrative ex-
pressons against the slayer are concerned.
New YORK, April DC
The arrivals of Emigrants continue
large, almost beyond precedent. Five
steamships yesterday landed at Castle
Garden with 3,342 steerage passengers,
of whom 1880 came from Bremen. The
arrivals for the week amounted to 49,
253, and for the month to 3S, 500. If the
arrivals should continue equally large
next week, they will make the present
months business the largest on record.
The largest previous month was about
10000. 1t was said at Castle Garden
yesterday that the immigrants who have
arrived here have been better class than
usual. The most Of them have been
young and sturdy peasants and artisans.
MONTECARLo, Tuscany, April 26.
At 10 o'clock on Saturday night the
patrons of the Montecarlo gaming rooms
were thrown into considerable consterna-
ton by terrible explosion. 1t seems
that a large cartridg &c was placed under
clock OH the mantelpece, near the trente-
quarente table. The force of the eX-
plosion was so great that it shattered the
windows, and the lights were extin-
guished, and scene of the most terrific
disorder ensued. Hundreds OF people
rushed wildly about in every direction.
Many persons tainted, and a large num-
Der were seriously injured by the falling
glass OF the chandeliers. The explosion
was the work Of a number of robbers,
who succeeded in getting away with up
wards OF 10000 francs. In the panic
which followed many persons were
trampeled under foot.
WASHINGTON, April 81
Logan returned to-day and was the
special object of interest at the capital.
He said Grant talked very freely with
him on general subjects, but eschewed
politics. "But," said Logan, "Grant
will not withdraw, or be withdrawn
under any circumstances. One gentle
man here remarked that it was generally
| understood that Grant would not be kept
in the field, unless he could be nominated
on the first ballot. Logan replied:
Grant is in the hands of his friends,
who will not withdraw him, no matter
how many ballots are taken" This is
the whole case. This remark is taken by
the Blaine people here to mean that the
campaign is to be an aggressive one.
