Services Were Held In the Presence of President Roosevelt, Cabinet, Prince Henry, Foreign Ambass^J.rs and Many Dislinguiehed Personages. Washington, Feb. 27.—At noon to day 5:; the g. >at. hall ol 1 eproEentatlwa In the presence ol Pr sident Roose velt, Prince Henry ol Prussia, brother o t- the German p< 01, the n. • in tiers o. the cabinet, the justices oi Uie su preme ''ourt, commanding general and olficers ot the army and navy who have received the thanks of congress, the ambassadors and other diplomatic representatives oi lun-tgn countries, the senators and representatives in congress and a large number of distin guished guests, the lion. John Hay, McKinley’s premier, pronounced a eu logy on hjs dead chief. Four times before national memuiial services for presidents who have died in office have been held in this hall, two of them like this, in commemoration of chief magistrates who htfte fallen by the hand of an assassin. George Bancroft, the historian, pro nounced the eulogy on Lincoln and Blaine was Garfield’s orator. By a strange coincidence today was the twentieth anniversary of that on which Air. Blaine was in the same ball and delivered his eulogy on Garfield, and stranger still, the subject of to day’s memorial service was the chair man of the committee who had charge of the arrangements f«i that occasion. Oniy one year ago, lees five days, at the head of an imposing civic and military procession, McKinley passed j triumphantly along Pennsylvania ave nue for his second inaugural. Six months later the tragedy occurred at Buffalo and another but different sort o* a precession bore bis body through the streets to the rotunda of the capi- tol, where the tributes of the nations of the earth about his bier bespoke the universal sorrow. Today, once more with uncovered head, the nation paid its last tribute of respect and publicly expressed its living grief. Market Conditions For the Past Week Show Activity. Cleveland. Feb. 27.—The Iron Trade Review referring to market conditions this week says: -The heavy import movement in steel and a further burst of activity in foundry iron are the features of the Iron market for the wt“ck. The buying of steel in Germany and England now promises to grow to very considerable proportions in spite of recent ad vances abroad. ^ * “The independent manufacturers at their meeting in Pittsburg last week decided to send a commissioner to England and Germany to buy sheet liars and he is now on the way. The amount of the contracts as talked of will Ik? about 40,000 tons, but it is h?- lieved a larger tonnage will be need 1. d liveius extending over the next sr months. German steel has advance ! j $1 to $5 since December, and German bidets are now quoted at $31.50, Pitts burg, while $34 is asked for sheet bars. It is believed from 150.000 to 200,u00 tons ot foreign steel will be needed this year to supplement the domes tic output, in the foundry iron mar ket the business closed has been very heavy. This has been almost entirely for delivery in the second half of the year. A variation of fully $1 a ton appears in current transactions.

GALVESTON SAVED THOUSANDS. City Not Responsible for Private Prop erty Seized. San Antonio, Tex., Feb. 27.—By a decision of the court of civil appeals the city of Galveston is relieved of responsibility for private property seized for public purposes immediate ly after the great storm of Sept. 8, 190b. This decision is of great importance to the city, as following the storm property of considerable value was pressed into service by the city au thorities and if the city were financial ly responsible for the same an obliga tion would be created which would cost the stricken city hundreds of thousands of dollars. in the case in point a pair of horses belonging to A. A. Brown were seized by the mayor and chief of police and were driven until one died. Brown sued for ^20’), the alleged value, and the lower court found for him. The court of appeals finds that the seizure was without authority of the council, and that the city is not liable.
