The Tears of the Nation Shed Over the Great Man's Bier. His Mortal Remains Tenderly Laid to Kost-He Needs No Bpltaph but His Nuiue—Mrs. Blame Prostrated. By the Associated Press. Washington, Jan. 30.—Blame could not have a private funeral; the surging waves of public interest swept over the barriers, and made of his obsequies one of the most impressive public demon strations ever witnessed in this country. The moßt eminent men in the nation stood around his bier. All business in the national capital was suspended dur ing the services. The presence of the president, tbe cabinet, supreme judges, the high officials of congress and tbe diplomatic corpß was not more signifi cant than the homage of the waiting crowds, who, in respectful silence, lined the streets through which the funeral cortege passed. The parlor on the second floor, where the body lay, was fail ly embowered in flowers, tributes from prominent people irom all parts of the country, from President Harrison down. The presi dent's tribute, a wreath of orchids and roses, was placed on the coffin. CROWDS OP DISTINGUISHED ATTENDANTS. Tne president entered first accom panied by Mrs. McKee, and following them came the officials of the executive, legislative and judicial departments, the diplomatic corpi and others, who by ties of kindred, friendship or associa tion were entitled to the privilege of being present at the final rites of the distinguished statesman. The parlors were not able to contain all who re ceived invitations. Even the home was too small; many per force remained in their carriages.which filled the adjacent streets, extending along Pennsylvania avenue in front of the treasury, war, state nnd navy buildingß. A concourse of several thousand people occupied La fayette square, opposite the Blame man sion, and the doors and windows of the adjacent houseß were thronged with spectators. A marked air of decorous solemnity attended even the outside demonstration. THE SERVICES AT THE HOUSE. As tho hour for the services arrived the mourners, including the luemberß of the family, grouped around the cas ket, the remainder of those present standing, as there was not roo □ for chairs. A simple service of prayer con stituted the rites. Bey. Dr. Hamlin, standing beside the casket, delivered in a low tone the Presbyterian service for the dead, Walter Damrosch, meantime, touch ng the keys of the piano to the notes of a slow dirge. Dr. Hamlin thanked God that life was ended only tbat immortality might begin, and be sought the Almighty for comfort to the members oi the stricken household. THE CORTEGE MOVES TO THE CUURCn. This ended tho brief, impressive ser vice ; the casket waß closed and tenderly borne to the hearse and the procession wended its way slowly to the church of the Covenant. The Btreet outside was thronged with spectators who reverently doffed their bats as the cortege passed. Following the hearse were tbe pall bearers, as heretofore given ; then came the members of the family and attend ing physicians, then tbe distinguished guests in due order. At the church ropes were stretched to exclude all not especially invited. THE WIDOW ALONE WITH HER DEAD. Mrß. Blaiue was not among the mourners at the church. Just before the starting of the funeral procession from Lafayette square Mrs. Blame re quested to be left alone for a few min utes with her dead. The parlor was cleared for this purpose, and when Mrs. Blame emerged she made her way, eupported on the arms of her son and daughter, to the room where her hus band had died, and there gave way to her grief in utter prostration. Mie. Hale andother sympathizing friends followed her to the death chamber, but their friendly ministrations wore of no avail, and Mrs Blame was compelled to re main behind. MAGNIFICENT FLORAL DECORATIONS. The decorations »t the church were very rich and t fiectiva. The terrace formed by the pulpit and the rail sepa rating the organ gallery from the plat form afforded a background for a striaing massing of plants and cut flowers. On the ledge of the pulp t cut fiowers were ranged in ribbon ten or twelve inche- In width. Below this ribbon and sus pended from acosa the front and curved sides of the pulp ir _Lwere short featoons ofemilax. The i iistnal font at the right, of the pulpit was twined with a emilax robe, and bore in its bowl a hunch oi Hsrrißsi lilies. Over the cut fiowers were foliage plants. At either end of the rail, against the wall, stood an immense rubber tree, and towering overall, immediately behind tbe reading deak were two Kentias palms. The front of the organ was covered with curtains of amUax. Ropes dropped from the apex of the in strument to the candelabra on the sidt walls of the organ loft. This decoration was made under tbe direction of tbe public gardener and has never been sur passed here in either profusion or per fect ensemble. The space in front of tbe pulpit in which the coffin lay was entirely cov ered with the floral emblems which ac companied the remains from the house. These were disposed U> such a way as to heighten the effect of the stationary decorations. SERNICKS AT THE CHURCH. Tbe funeral proceßaion arrived at the church at noon, and to an improvisation on the organ made of several themes of hymns which Blame loved, the distin guished concourse moved slowly up (he aisle. The body was deposited at the chancel rail. The services at the church were as simple as at the house, conßißting of tbe Bervice for the dead, selections from the scriptures and prayera. Then the funeral procession reformed and the body was conveyed to Oak Hill cemetery and laid to rest. AT THE CEMETERY. At the cemetery, on the successive terraces that border the winding path way leading to the grave, scores of spec tators were standing. Many pressed forward to pluck a flower from the wreath on the column that adorned the dead man's bier. The floral tributes were so numerous that five wagons were necessary to convey them to the ceme tery, where they were arranged artist ically back of the grave on a huge Btrip of canvas. CONSIGNED TO THE EARTH. Dr. Hamlin read the Bimple burial service of the Presbyterian church. This waa followed by an extemporane ous prayer, then came the benediction and all that was mortal of Jamea Gilles pie Blame was consigned to the earth. THE SON AT THE GRAVE OF lIIS FATHER. The interment was over IS minuteß after the cortege entered the cemetery at 1:30 o'clock. Slowly the crowd dis persed. The president, hia cabinet, senators, tbe family, all entered their carriages and were driven away—all but one, James G. Blame, who is junior no longer, who stood beside the grave of his father until the masons had bricked in the casket and the grave diggers filled in the remaining space. When all this was accomplished he returned to his carriage, and the last of the group of spectators disappeared. A SCRAMDI.E FOB MEMENTOES. The. desire of friends who attended the services at the church to carry away some memento of the occasion resulted in the complete stripping of the flowers from the pulpit and organ rail, almost before the cortege had fairly begun the march to the cemetery. TUB CAUSE OP BLAIitE'S DEATH. The death certificate gives the primary cause of Blame's death «b arterio renal fibrosis (a chronic intorstitial nephritia) and chronic catarrhal, pneumonia.

The disposi tion he makes of his property is charac teristic of the confidence he always re posed in his wife, and which was such a noticeable feature of his family rela tion. Everything is left unreservedly to Mrs. Blame, ebe to be sole executrix and not required to give any bond. The estate will amount to about $800,000. DTBKS FUNEKAI, BEKVICBIS.

THE HAWAIIAN SITUATION. Important Developments at Washington. Annexation Meets with General Approbation. Tbe Administration Not Lukewarm in the Matter. A Resolution for the Admission of tho Islands Introduced in the Ben ate—England Files a Protest. By the Associated Press. Washington, Jan, 30. —There are some important developments in the Hawai ian situation. First, it ie very clearly indicated that the administration ia not in any way lukewarm iv the matter, as was at first supposed. Secondly, the action of the com mander of the Boston, against which Great Britain ia about to file, or has filed, a formal protest, has received tbe official approval of the president and cabinet. The sentiment in favor of annexing is extending, and several members of tbe cabinet have expressed themselves ia favor of it. It has been reported that President Harrison is in favor of annex ation. Although the course pursued by Min ister Stevens, in ordering the Boston's marines on shore, was without explicit instruction from the government, his action is fully approved by the presi dent. SENTIMENT IN TTIE SENATE. In the senate there is a distinctively American feeling on the Hawaiian ques tion, which is not confined to any party. There can be no doubt that the majority of the members of the foreign relations committee look with favor on the estab lishment of American domination on the islands, but in juat what shape is a matter of detail not yet considered. AN ANNEXATION RESOLUTION. In the senate today Chandler offered a resolution requesting the president to pnttir iutn ""rrtiaH-r — —n ith hsssn sstfayn visional government of Hawaii for the admission of the islands aB a territory and to lay a convention before congress for ratification by legislation. White (I)em.) of Louisiana objected to immediate consideration of the reso lution and it went over till tomorrow. The objection to Chandler's resolu tion on the subject, as offered today, ia not looketi upon in the way of anti-an nexation feeling, but rather as fear on the part of tbe opponents of the anti options bill that if it had not gone over till tomorrow the day would have been spent in its discussion and the delivery of anti-option speeches been prevented. senator DOl.l'll's views. Dclph, a member of the committee on foreign relations, said this evening: j "The United States has been waiting iSO years for this opportunity, and now that it has come in euch a way that tbe problem can be aolved without difficulty, I certainly see no reason why we should hesitate. The man who wonld oppose j what ia the manifest duty of the coun try in this matter is, I think, hardly de- I serving of a seat in congresa. I cer- I tainly favor the control of these islands Iby the government of the United j States." HISCOCK FAVORS ANNEXATION. j Hiscock, another member of tbe same committee, is also in favor of annexation. "I bMieve," Baid he, "that this govern ment should prevent any interference in this matter on the part of any other power. It is matter that concerns us wholly, and for one, I may say I am in favor of the establishment there of a territorial form of government under the flag of the United States." the only stumbling block. One member of tbe committee, who did not like to be quoted, said the only stumbling block he saw in the way was the possible action of tbe house, if it were'ewayed by the influence of a cer tain gentleman who controlled the ap propriations. It would, he thought, be a short sighted policy to consider the coßt when there was so much at stake in I the matter of the perpetuation of the safety of tho republic and the acquire ment of that which would enable us to compel the respect of nations who were now friendly simply because it was good policy to be friendly. In a country like the United States, as he looked upon it, it was of little moment whether the an nexation of Hawaii involved the expend iture of thousands or millions. chandler's resolution. Senator Chandler's resolution requests the president "to lay before congress any treaty lie may make for ratification by legislation." The purpose of thia language is to permit the house of repre sentatives to share in the responsibility in the disposition of the Bubject, and not have action taken in the senate and be hind closed doors. Undoubtedly this is calculated to strengthen the proposition contained in the resolution for annexa tion. TIME FOR ANNEXATION. Chandler says: "The time has como for tho United States to annex the Hawaiian islands. For years they have been gravitating towards us, but as long us a self-supporting autonomous govern ment conld be maintained on the is lands, there was no necessity for annex ation Now, however, it is apparent that the government can no longer atand i that the people are willing to come to us. It will not he necessary for the United States to embark in a general policy of annexation or coloniza tion. What we want ie Hawaii in tho Pacific and one or two points in the vVest. Indies.
