PAID HOMAGE TO HANNA.
cleveland Was City Of Mourning on FRI

the Body.

Cleveland, O., Feb. 20.-Cleveland
was again a city of mourning Friday.
Business waJ practically suspended and
q large proportion OF the population
paid homage to the memory OF their
distinguished fellow citizen, Senator
Marcus A. Hanna. Just four weeksago
Senator Hanna left his home city Tor
the national capital happy In the
thought Of his triumphant reelection
to the highest legislative body In the
land. His one ambition then as he
himself stated was to give to his coun-
try q season OF uninterrupted service
The last rites over the body were
held in the afternoon at st. Paurs
Episcopals church. During the solemn
service, Cleveland was q silent city.
Nearly all business was suspended.
Street railway and steam road traffic
on every line in the city was stopped
for Ave minutes from 100 to 1:O5
o'clock. People generally in all parts
of the city bowed their heads In rev.
erence for a brief space Of time at that
hour. Thousands who were unable to
view the remains of the dead senator
as they lay in state in the Chamber OF
Commerce auditorium flocked to the
church doors to witness the conveying
of the black casket, bearing the re-
mains of the senator into the church.
There they stood with barred heads
and moistened eyes as the cortegc
moved into the edifice where the last
earthly tribute was paid the dead.
Admittance to the services at the
church was by card and limited to 800;
the seating capacity Of the auditorium.
The body, accompanied by the family,
pall-bearers and Bishop Leonard. pro-
ceeded slowly out Euclid avenue to
Lake View cemetery, where a final
farewell of the dead was taken in
Wade Memorial chapel. The services
consisted simply of a prayer by the
bishop. The body was deposited in a
crypt in the chapel to await burial at
the pleasure of the family.

BOOST PRICE OF WHEAT.
Grain Men Fear That Far East War VII
Not BE Confined to Russia
and Japan.

Chicago. Feb. 20.-Attended by ex-
element not often equaled, wheat adj
vanced nearly four cents a bushel.
The grain pits on change were from
start to finish scene of almost con-
tinuous pandemonium. The long COW
eted goal in speculative trading. dol
lar wheat" was made mere reminis-
cense, May delivery selling as high as
$l.03 q bushel.
The sharp advance was due to fear
that the war would not be confined to
Russia and japan. Bulges of over u
cent on the Liverpool and Berlin mar
kets were the immediate factor. The
scarcity of wheat suitable for milling
purposes was an additional element OF
strength. Trading was exceedingly ac-
tive, the aggregate Of business for the
day being enormous.
Advances were also made in Other
speculative articles, notably in provi-
sions. Pork for May delivery jumped
up 52h cents a hundred pounds.

THE REAL THING.
Tortoise Shell "Direct from Tortof"
Where the Reptiles Were
Doubtless Raised.

Less genuine tortoise shell is imported
In New York from India now than there
has been for great many years, owing to
the active efforts of the jams. This, says
the New York Times, is an influential sect
of humanitarians with headquarters at
Bombay, but with thriving communities
throughout the empire. Their mission on
behalf of the tortoise is much the same
as that Of the Audubon societies in this
country with regard to birds. Great
cruelties, the Jams allege, are practiced
in the tortoise shell trade, and they are
trying to stop it. A woman who had read
about this movement went into Broad.
way store and looked at some tortoise shell
combs.
"But are they genuine?" she asked.
There are so many limitations in the
market now.
"Oh, yes, these are genuine" replied the
dealer. I'VE get them from our own
agents, direct from Tortoi."

Japan WAS OUR FRIEND.
state Department Gives Some Interesting
History ia Connection with the Open
Ing Of the Port OF VIII.

Washington, Feb. 15.-The United
States was the first power, so FAR as Is
known, to apply to the Korean govern
mept for the opening Of Win to the
worlds trade. This action was taken
while Japan and England were urging
the opening of Yongampho, lying at
the mouth Of the Yalu river on the
Korean side. The view taken by the
state department was that II we could
secure the opening Of Win, $50 miles
I'D the Yaiu above Yongampho, the ef-
feet would be to practically open the
whole OF that stretch OF the river to
commerce, go that the project really
was much larger than the mere open
ing of a port at the mouth Of the river.
Win lies on the opposite side OF the
river and very near to Antung In Man.
churia, which the Chinese government
already has by treaty with the United
States declared to be an open pert, al
though this never has been admitted
by Russia. It Is understood that :hs
opening of Win is directly attributed
to Japanese ascendancy in Korea, for
while the country was under Russian
influence Mr.. Allen, the American min
lister, was unable to induce the king to
open q single port in addition to Che
mulpo. It is probable that the state de-
partment at once will take steps to
have America represented at Win by
consular or commercial agent.

Washington, Feb. 1S.-Mr. Allen, the
American minister at Seoul, cables the
