REMARKABLE FUNERAL.

1t Took Place Mt the Midwinter Fair
Grounds In San Francisco.
SAN Francisco, Feb. ia remark
able funeral took place at the Midwin-
ter fair grounds yesterday-that of
Catilo Thiemann, the lion tanner, who
was mortally wounded by lions in
the arena of Boone's wild animal show
a few nights ago. The services
were held within the cage, where
from day to day the fierce brutes
which mangled Thiemann perform.
AS the services went on they were,
from time to time interrupted by
fierce roars from the beasts in their
cages near BY. These suggestive and
uncanny sounds were supplemented
by sights as, strange as natives from
every quarter Of the globe gathered
about. ,l5.t
Grouped together on the raised seats
surrounding the arena were Ha-
waiians, Esquimaux, YaquiS, Sioux,
Turks and Arabs in native costume.
The Iowa state band PLAYED the same
melodies as at the funeral of the VIC
Tins of the Cold Storage warehouse
fire in Chicago; the Hawaiians sang a
dirge in their native tongue, and a
procession was formed which pro-
ceeded to the Odd Fellows cemetery,
where the lion tanner was laid in his
grave.

The Transmississippi Congress Wants
Hawaii Taken in. ic ..
san FRANCISCO, Feb i9.-TRe
Hawaiian matter was called up yester-
day and again threw the congress into
a spirited debate, there being consia.
cradle opposition to the strong reso-
buttons reported by the committee.
An attempt was made to substitute a
resolution commencing a protectorate
over the islands as a solution of the
problem. This wass quickly voted
down. The convention then, amidst
uproarious applause, passed these reso-
buttons: g..
Resolved, That the great interests
of the country on the Pacific coast,
both in peace and war, require that
the Hawaiian islands shall not be
liable to be subjected to the domina-
ton or influence of any foreign power.
Resolved; That any attempt to force
on the Hawaiian community the
restoration of the arbitrary monarch
zeal government of the late queen is
repugnant to the sense of justice and
republican principles of the American
people.
Resolved, That the opportunity to
further American interests and to in
sure to said islands free, permanent
and humane government afforded by
their application for annexation,
presents a settlement of the Hawaiian
question by peaceful acquisition and
a spread of American institutions
which it would be both foolish and
wrong to decline.

AWFUL TRAGEDY In NORTH CAROLINA
just as the Ceremony Had Been Con-

Bride and Kills I'd Long.

RALEIGH, N. c., Feb. 90. - News
comes of adouble murder at wedding
in Allegheny county. Among those
present was Daniel Slaughter, of
Carroll county, Virginia. Just as the
wedding ceremony ended Slaughter
passed near an old man, who seized
his hand and made some remarks.
Slaughter spoke roughly and was told
to leave the house. He did so, but in a
few minutes returned. The friends of
the old man were angry, and a
peacemaker endeavored TO keep them
back, while at the same time he told
Slaughter to keep quiet. Suddenly
Slaughter sprang at John Bare and
stabbed him to the heart. Bare fell
dead and Slaughter made an attempt
to again stab him, but the bride seized
his hand. She was cut in the hand
and arms. Slaughter dashed for the
door and on the way he stabbed Ed
Long, killing him instantly, and then
fled. He was captured two miles
away. There were threats of lynch
ing, but he was safely taken to jail at
Sparta. He claims some of the crowd
struck him in the face.

THE PAST WEEK A RECORD
BREAKER FOR BUSINESS.
EVERYTHING TOUCHED BOTTOM,
Wheat Is Ii Ccnts Lower Than 1t Has
Been in the Past Seventy-Seven Years
Silver and Certain Kinds of Iron
and Steel Have Never Before
Been So Cheap-Dun's
Weekly Review of Trade.

New YORK, Feb. 19.-R. G. Dun's
Weekly Review says: This has been
4 week of record breaking. In wheat
in silver, in some forms of iron and
steel, in COnnellsville coke anG in
well-known cotton and wooden goods,
the lowest prices ever known have
been made, and it IS gratifying that
failures Of importance have not re-
suited. While no action affecting
business prospects was taken at
Washington, in continued discussion
of revenue and monetary measures
and the uncertainty regarding them
have constant unfavOrable influence,
and different markets have caused
sudden fluctuations in prices.
Wheat at sos cents is not only
lower by Al cents than it was for a
day last year, but lower by 134 cents
than it ever had been in me previous
the seventy-seven years.
Corn and other products tiuctuated
but little, though receipts of corn
were large. Cotton declined an
eighth with increasing distrust OF
short crop estimates.
The slight recovery in prices Of
iron products has not been maintained.
Bessemer pig has declined at Pitts
burg to S1O.65 and grey forge to S9.65,
and steel billets are So below SIG
there, while at Philadelphia most
rolling mill products are lower than
ever. 49, ~ E.. =
Textile industries do not seem to
have gained within the past week, for
as many works have closed as have
resumed work, and in wooden > and
cotton manufactures rathergnere.,
Exports of merchandise were about
S5OO,OOO smaller for the week than last
year, and for six weeks the increase
has been only 50, 100000, or ~ per
cent.
Failures for the week have been 800
IN the United, States, against 1877 Hast
year, and IS in Canada, against 36'laSt
