KossUrH's FUNERAL.
Turin Crowded With Hungarians in
Their National Costume.

Their National Costume.
Turin, March 2S.-The funeral services
over the remains of Louis Kossuth were
held this morning in the Evangelic
church. The city was crowded with
sightseers, and the streets presented a
most remarkable appearance, owing to
the immense number of Hungarians in
full national costume, who were to be
seen on all sides. The streets through
which the funeral procession passed were
lined by municipal guards, and on all SIDES
were to be seen mourning emblems and
Grape draped flags.
The demonstration was one such as is
seldom witnessed in Europe excepting
over the remains of a reigning mon
arch. The church was insufficient
to hold a fftieth part of those
desiring admission, and only the chief
representatives of the Hungarian delega-
tions and the leading representatives of
foreign nations were able to obtain ad-
mittance, and in every case there was
cheerful -acquiescense in the decision
of the committee of arrangements
as to who should bc admitted
and who excluded. After the
ceremonies in the church, the
body was formally delivered at the rail
way station to a deputtaion sent from
BuQa-Pesth 10 receive it. Immediately
after the speeches at the railway station
three volleys were fired over Kossuth's
body. AS the train moved off everybody
IN the crowd stood with uncovered heads

Washington, March 28.-This morning
Speaker Crisp visited the white house in
the interest of constituent who is apply
ing for an appointment. His presence
there was at once noticed by newspaper

were telePraphed by correspondents TO
their papers. Some Of the reports fatty
contradicted others. The truth is. the

purpose above stated.

CLEVELAND ABLE TO WALK.
He Limps a Little But Is Not Laid Up
by the Gout.

Washington, March 2S.-President
Cleveland disposed of all gossip as to his
inability to walk on account of a gouty
foot by coming down stairs to the east
room of the White House to-day, and
shaking hands with 500 people, the occa-
sion being his regular tri-weekly recep-
tion to the public. These receptions were
suspended all last week on account of the
great pressure of important public busi-
ness which absorbed his attention. To
day, although the President limped
slightly, he was evidently not seriously
inconvenienced, but was in unusually
good spirits and laughed heartily at ap-
parent jokes hastily uttered by some of
his visitors.

NICARAGUA AND CHINA.
Indorsement of the Canal Bonds and
the New Treaty.

committee on foreign relations this morn
ing discussed the proposition to back the
Nicaraguan canal with bonds 10 be Sc
cured by the government, and the Chinese
treaty recently negotiated by Secretary
Gresham, but no action was taken on
either matter
1t was the unexpected that happened
in the executive session this afternoon.
The general impression was when the
meeting Of the committee on for
eign relations adjourned shortly
after noon that no action had
been agreed upon in relation TO
the Chinese treaty. Nevertheless, when
the Senate subsequently, went into execu-
tive session the treaty was favorably re-
ported TO the Senate without amendment
aud went to the executive calendar. Mr.
Dolph, OF Oregon, was the only member OF
the committee opposed to the terms of the
treaty, but considerable antagonism will
be found among senators not on the COM
mlttee. Final action will not be speedy as
numerous amendments will be- offered
the Pacific coast senators being deter
mined to secure, If possible the expung-
ing OF the debtor clause in regard to mer-
chants. Mr.. Call called up the nomina-
tions made in connection with Florida
appointments upon which he proposed TO
wage war, but on a call of the Senate
showing that no quorum was present
Mr.. Call permitted the nominations TO 90
over till Friday. The second executive
session of the afternoon was brought
about by Mr.. Brice, who was anxious TO
nave certain Cincinnati appointments
confirmed, among them that of Harlan
Cleveland, nominated to be district attor-
ney for the Southern district of Ohio.
Mr. Cleveland was confirmed.
