The worst disaster was the foundering
of the steamer British King off Suule island
on March 11. when it is estimated that at
least eighteen and possibly twenty-six lost
their lives. The correct figures probably
will never be known, as several men en
rolled as members ot the crew are said to
htive deserted before the ship sailed.

The season of storm und shipwreck begt.n
in November, when the Norwegian steamer
Turbine struck the rocks off Clark's har
bor. N. 8., and in sight or persons' on shore
held for a brief moment on the ledges,
then surged forward on the crest of a
wave and disappeared with Its crew of
fourteen men. In lewi than a fortnight
after the Turbine tragedy the British
steamer Lunenberg struck the rocks In a
heavy storm off Amherst harbor. Magda
lene Islands and twelve out of a crew of
seventeen perished. From that time on
scarcely a week passed without its story
Of wreck.
Keports that have come lu since the

fear that the list of casualties may be
greatly Increased. There has been no day

will say:
The distribution ot spring met chsndise
has received a check been urns of the heavy
snowfall mid severe storms In many sec
tions of the country, but some onset 1
rioted In renewed Inquiry for winter goods,
and there la no Interruption to the activity
of "tupping; department.
Confluence in the future ia remarkably
bright and the outlook would be far belter
than ever before at this canon If the tuel
uncertainty were removed.- Manufacturing
plums operate close to maximum capacity
in the leaning Industries and It la an evi
dent of no little significance that many
mills cannot undertake deliveries before
11)07. While these are extreme cases. It if
a common thing to Hod production engaged
for several months In advance. Mercantile
collections are also more prompt, except in
certain parts ot the south, where cotton is
still held for better terms. Commodity
prices are slightly higher on the whole and
, h.. tnuiriinv materials continue strong,
structural work being abnormally heavy for
the season. Rntlroad, earnings tor turai
thus far surpass last year s by 91 P" cent
nnd foreign commerce at this prt for the
last week shows a gain of 'W,M2 'm"
ports over the same period of woo, wnue
exports are practically unchanged.
One of the best features of the Iron and
steel industry is the steady demand for
steel rails. No decrease ts noted In the
activity of textile mm, prouuccir. eauuni
Ing persistent confidence in the future de
spite the Irregularity that is noted In pri
mary markets.
A somewhat better tone In the hide mar
ket n the result of last week s activity
in leather. The lorelgn bide market has
developed some Irregularity, dry skins
ruling steady, but wet salted Mexican be
coming fractionally weaker. Recent heavy
transactions In leather Improved the tone
of the market. New England shoe manu
facturers are receiving orders for fall goods
from salesmen In the west and south, the
demand being chiefly for heavy goods.
Failures this week numbered 21.1 In the
United States, as against &G last year, and
37 in Canada, compared with 16 a year ago.

flaslness reels the Effert ef the (.
tlaaed Winter Weather.
NEW YORK, March 23. Bradstreet's to
morrow will say :
Trade reports are still rather mixed In
character. Business feels the effect of con
tinued winter weather, heavy snowfalls and
freexing temperatures which have hurt
early fruits and truck interests, retarded
retail trade and affected Jobbing sales and
shipments. Building has been Interrupted,
but this Is only temporary and the winter
wheat crop has ben put beyond harm by
the heaviest snowfall In years at this
period. l'ncrtalnty as to the coal strike
Induces hesitancy In some lines of Indus
try. but has Immensely stimulated coal and
coke. Pig Iron Is dull and the steel rail
sales are numerous snd immense expendi
tures for railway building west and north
west are projected. lemand for money Is
active, hence rates are Arm and promise to
continue so well Into the balance of the
year. Banking opinion seems to lie that
while no acute stringency Is to be looked
for there will be nothing resembling stag
nation and that trade and Industrial re
quirements i will be very heavy. Collec
tions are backward, an outgrowth of the
slowness of retailers to remit on late win
ter and early spring business, and warmer
weather. It Is confidently believed, would
remedy this condition. Railway earnings
are really mugnlflcent. the tulld winter here
being a distinct benefit and the ratio of
frross receipts carried over to net has never
efore been equalled. Additional Interest
ing features are the numerous reports of
wage advances made In several Industrial
lines, the growth of the feeling that a great
coal strike will net occur, the strengthen
ing of. prices of leading staples, such as
grain and cotton; the Increasing sales of
leather to shoe manufacturers Indicating
covering against fall sales of shoes, and the
elimination of some soft spots In yarns and
other varieties of manufactured cotton.

The artilery had been stationed at the
cemetery and as the procession left the
church a salute of seventeen guns wns
nred. The services at the grave were
brief and simple, merely the military ritual.
Taps were sounded and the final salute
of seventeen guns was fired.
The grave Is in the center of a piece
of ground In which are burled old com
rades of General Thayer, and he himself
selected the place. General Thayer's wife
is burled in Massachusetts and at one time
It waa his desire to be taken there fir
burial, but In his later years he changed
his mind and requested that when the end
came he be placed in Nebraska soil.
svrTleea at i he C'haroh.
The funeral services at St. Paul's church
consisted of short addresses made by com
rades of the dead soldier, each taking
some particular phase of his life for a
subject. The church was tastefully
decorated, a large floral piece with the
Inscription "Thayer county" forming the
centerpiece of the chain with two floral
flags on either side. These pieces con
sisted of red and white roses with the blu
violets 4n the corner. The song servlje
consisted of selections chosen by General
Thayer, each of which was a favorite with
him. Governor Mickey presided at these
exercises and they concluded with the
ritual of the Grand Army of the Republic.
The Invocation was by the Rev. Luther
P. Ludden, which wss followed by an ad
dress by Rev. Mr. Jones, pastor of St.
Paul's church. Mr. Jones delivered an
eulogy on General Thayer and his life.
He held the general up as an example for
all others. His trend was toward higher
things always the speaker said.
"Rock of Ages" was sung by a quartet
of old soldiers, and "One Sweetly Solemn
Thought" was sung by Mrs. M. B. Hoover.
After the speeches hud been dcllver-.il
the body was again placed In the hearse
and the march to the cemetery liegan. The
streets were crowded with citizens who
occupied all the available space along thu
line of rmareh.
The addresses in the church were deliv
ered in the following order: Governor
Mickey, Colonel T. J. Majors, Jesse B.
Strode and H. E. Palme;.
.. Goveraor Mlekfya Estimate.
Governor Mickey said. In part:
As governor he was ever sensitive to the
Interests of the people, whose servant he
was. He had a deep appreciation of the
revponslhillty resting upon him and hln
constant effort was to discharge that re
sponsibility In the fear of God. His oath
of office meant more to him than so nianv
words. He regarded It as a clarion call lb
duty, an inspiration to the highest effort
of which his nature wss capable. No mun
can nil an Important public position and
wholly escape criticism. General Thayer
had his critics, but none in their more
sober moments ever questioned his lnli-g-rlty
or the purity of his motives. He gave
his hest thought, his best energy, the best
years of his lite to the cause of the people,
not grudgingly, but with a prodigality
which emptied himself and which Uft him
in his declining years with hut a uvager
pittance. Others will improve this ol,-iou
occasion to pans upon him a fitting eulogy.
I proclaim iilm one of nature's nubleiaen
and bestow upon him the tribute of my
love.
Thayer as a Slatesmaa.
Jesse B. Strode spoke of General Thayer
as statesman. He said:

tions, he never swerved from his stsndards

He was the architect of his own fortunes
and his fortunes were built upon the solid
foundation of a noble character. His char
acter was greater, perhaps, than his intel
ect, and dominated every faculty that was
In him.
By reason- of his distinguished military
services anfl his services as 1'nlted States
senator and governor of Nebraska and the
noble example of his life, he has left an In
fluence upon his country's history that will
endure. Thero was. and there Is. In the

T J. Majors spoke of General Thayer as
a soldier. He said: ,
Comrades and Friends: Trying as Is the
ord -al, yet I have listened to the commands
of my living comrades to stand at this
hour, in the presence of the remains of our
dearly beloved and honored comrade and
commander, and to spenk to yitu cf his sol
dierly qualities. Limited as my time Is I
could not hopo to do him Justice, therefote
must pass by his brilliant career as a fron
tier defender and tnllltarv commander from
1K54 to lSiil in the territory of Nebraska snd
speak of him as a military character after
the inauguration of the civil war.
Of tho engagement at Fort Donaldson he
said:
Then It was that our colonel's heroism
snd galantry earned for him the command
of a brigade, undying fame and Immortal
renown.
Thence he proceeded with his command
up the Tennessee river and engaged In the
bloody battle of Bhlloh, and there earned
further commendation and promotion. It

of a rebel batterv not one hundred yards
distant, which was persistently pouring
Into our lines a most disastrous storm of
shot and shell, and it did not seem possible
that anything alive could survive It, Gen
eral Thuver wns observed coming along
the linns from left to rlnlit alone and on
foot, his sides, his adjutant general and
his orderlies having been' swept from him
bv this hostile fire. As he passed along the
line he gave the order. Uiat when the regi
ment moved it was to fix bayonets and
take that rebel battery. It was then his
courage showed fcrth. not a tremor In his
voice, not a doubt In his form or face.
His courage inspired the confidence of all
and richly crowned the sacrifice.

tlment of all veteran Grand Army men of
Nebraska by staling that if Thayer would
accept this great token of appreciation and
honor from his comrades that his services
and grest prominence in the army In the
Indian wars for the protection of the pio
neers of his adopted home, Nebraska, and
for his gallant record during the great
civil war, entitled him to the preference
above any citizen of the, state, and Culver
seconded the nomination of Thayer, aqil he
was. to his great surprise and Joy, unani
mously elected; and much to the credit of
the comrades of our organisation Culver
was Inter on elected to fill the place he so
unseltishly surrendered to General Thayer.
My comrade, Oeneral Thayer, was truly
a man of the people, nnd his heart was
ever with the men under his command dur
ing the war. He was always the friend of
the poor man and common soldier, and I
remember well when I urged him to Join
tho Military Order of the I.nval i.eglonrof
the 1'nlted States he replied: "Your or
ganization Is exclusively for men who were
officers In the war of the rebellion?" I re
marked that while at the front we were
compelled. In obedience to army regulations
and for discipline, to maintain a social dis
tinction between officers and men. and that
his associates snd ourselves were not the
soldier boys In company or regimental
ranks, thot our associates and companions
during the war were with the line or staff
officers, and now In the Loyal Legion we
meet, na we did during the war, to plan
the battles and tell of the success or re
verses that we alone were held responsible
for.
"No use," said General Thuyer. "I am
going to keep close to the boys that were
ready with gun and bayonet or sabre to
meet the foe. I commanded them then;
they can command me now."
