It wuh tho "Father of the House" who Shad gone to his rest, and reverence was done to his memory in a manner fitting to that position. ' As tho hour approachod for tho arri[e val of tho funeral cortege, a large number of Senators. headed by the Vice President, entered the hall and took tho Beats assigned them. In the galleries were a number of ladies and gentlemen who, though outside of the legislative circle in which Judge Kelley had for so long beeu a conspicuous llgure, had yet known him, and took this occasion to manifest the respect and esteem in which they held his momory.

But 11 so far as can be ascertained, these a bureaus are unable to furnish any Batis}? factory explanation of the phenomena. a It is safe to say that General Greely, the chief of the Signal Service, is at a '? loss to account for. the unusual state of 11 things upon any basis of ordinary calr culation. That is, lie cannot point to * any one reason or set of reasons that " will explain the matter, although he can 0 Bhow in a thousand different ways what T are the local causes that have brouglit 0 about the very warm December. H It can be stated at the outset that General Greely denies the proposition that 0 has become so popular of late, that thdj J climate of either t he Atlantic or Pacific 1 coast is undergoing a permanent radical l? change." The mucn mooted question of ? the course of the Gulf Stream, ho says, J1 had nothing whatever to do with the h matter, as the moat careful observations 0 and investigations of theHv scientific n bureaus of the Government fail to show 3 that the Gulf stream is undergoing auy 1 unusual change. The only cause that a would bo apt to drive the. Gulf stream ? inward would be strong sea winds for a period of time, and the fact is that for 8 some time past the prevailing winds J" have been off shore. It is also true that r> in Mississippi the increase in'tempera jc- temporary local* causes, .and tbat somo )n totally different reason inuBt be found 39 for the.unusual mild'temperature along >n the coast at present. at X MOTHER'S lflVE. ^ A Wotimu UiialK'B Through Flume to 8nvo r?

The It* only annouRcement of the approach and progress of tho storm was a dull, sudden . roar, quickly'folio wed by a torrent of j_ rain, which in turn was succeeded by sleet, and before tlio victims could ^ realize;.what had happened, the 'storm had swept by und on, leaving wreckage and mangled humanity- in its pathway. ^ Trees were* torn up by the, roots and broken off/ telegraph poles swept'down as though mere sticks, while the roofs of P buildings were lifted from their moorings like feathers and tossed into the streets.

In two or three markets, large transactions, especially in foundry irons, have taken place. Old rails are in urgent demand in all markets.

Mill BODIES Of the Dead in the Caisson Disaster at Louisville. A HORRIBLE SPECTACLE Tlio Head of a Corp Tom From the Hotly In Endeavors to Ral?o It. Tlio Remains of tlio Victims Tightly Wedged To?cther,U. H Louisville, Jan. 12.?Tho body ol Charles Ohilds was removed from the fatal caisson yesterday aftoruoou, but in taking It from tlio trap the head o( the unfortunate man was jerked off the lifeless form and rolled away several foet Into the sand. It was found yesterday ihat in the exit from tlio chamber the bodies ' of Monroe Bowling and OharleB Clillds were lockod in the trap, They were hack to back, hut bo (Irmly held that no amount of pulling could separate them. Their limbs were bent under and seemed to he burled In the Band. Thoy had evidently been squeezed Into tlio hole while trying to. escape and by some mishap caught until the trap closed, and the waterdrowned them. All kinds of schemes were proposed to get the bodies out of the trap, hut ttie onlv feasible plan was to place a rope under the arms of one of the men and thon anply derrick force. Thla was finally determined on this morning, and preparations were made to carry it out. A good strong half-inch rope was secured and tied under Chiius' armpets. I The derrick was then started, but in some way the rope slipped from its place while the machinery whs goiug at full force, and catching around the dead man's neck it the nextinstaut pulled the head completely from the body. : a 1i0uhiblk hiout. , 1 As might be supposed, the sight was a horrible one, and the rough, strong men who stood around were compelled to turn their heads away and leave the Bpot. The rope was. again fastened around the headless trunk, and this time the body was easily drawn through the opening. ^ : ' Superintendent Murphy then turned his attention to tho body of Monroe Bowling, and. fastening the same.ropo under oue of the arms aud tho neck of the corpse, pulled it out of the hole. The face presented a ghostly appearance, nnd guve evidence of the horrible struggle these two n?en must havo hud in trying to save their lives. ^ Bowling's eyes Bbot nearly out of their sockets, and a dreadful 'look of fear was still depicted on his face, llis neck and cheeks were badly lucerated, and his clothes nearly torn off.- As the body dangled in the air the Btoutest men around were overcome with the horror of the sceue. The bodies of the two men were turned over to the undertaker and got ready for burial. After the bodies had been rommwi Superintendent Murphy, with several of his men, descended through the air shaft into the first chamber of the caiBson. He had great trouble in working the trap and found that no other bodies were in position to be immediately taken out. He said: "The trap is only eighteen inches Equare. By the flickering of a candle light I saw some way .-into the caisson, and discovered the unfortunate men about ten feet from the trap. All of those visible were colored.1', I supptse the white men will; be found further back. I saw a number of hauds etuck up and the eight or nine bodies in sight were huddled together in nearly an indistinguishable mass. Every one had probably recognized instantly the danger and had made a mad rush for the little hole or trap, the only mode of escape. They had evidently knocked each other down in the death scramble and then the water did the rest. If we have no set-back, I hope to get the- poor fellows out before to-morrow morning. It is a tedious job and has to be gone through carelully." ANUNFBELINQ CROWD. A tremendous crowd has been near and around the fatal spot since daybreak.' The report that the bodies would'be likely rescued served to draw the curious and the morbid to the place, where they lingered until nightfall. While this sad and awful scene was going on another of, an entirely different character was being enacted several hundred yards from it. At Pier No. 0,"next to the'fatal'No. 7, a gang of twenty workmen web busily at work'in the caisson twenty-five or thirty feet under the . water. All of the men were; swearing, singing, joking and laughing as if nothing unusual had occurred, and entirely;oblivious to the fact that twelve of their late comrades lay drowned within a stone's throw of them. Late last night six bodies in all had been taken from the caisson. They are Morris, Bowling, Soper, Smith, Ash and Frank Mabar. The first five were colored men and all from Henderson, Ky. Mahar's was tbe last body brought out. He is a white man; and is from New Jersey. The bodies seem to be packed in a mass at the bottom of the air-shaft and derply) imbedded in the sand. In the ellort to extricate them the head of Smitli was pulled otf ;and presented a horrible sight as it came up out of the shaft dangliug. on the end of a rope, as his corpse had to be chopped m two near the waist before it could be brought out. The river is rising: four inches an hour and threatens the co'ffer dam, which makes it imperative that all haate be employed in removing the bodieB. A BOW llll'ltOUAItLK.
