PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 22.-The Pennsyl- vanla friends of Wililim F. Harrity of tho. Domocratic national committee do not believe that he w.ll consent to have his namo prescuted in the Indianapolis convention as aA candidate for the pres- idency. « For that reason they do not look with favor upon the uggs. oa in Chi cago, Washington and New, York that Mr, Harrity of Ponn yiyvania and Daniel Lawler of Minn:sotm snould constitute the gold stunitard ticket. Mr. Harrity himself declares he is out of politics and will not discuss tas matter, but those of his friends who are supporting the move- ment for a gold tick t claim that tho strongest ticket thm. could be mndefvould consist of n cundiduto for the presidency from one of thoe Northwestern states and a candidate for the vice presidency from one of the Southern states. Tho names of Bragg of Wisconsin and Buckner of Kentucky, or Palmer of THli- nols and Buckner, are regarded by thom as particularly strong. * Bolting Republicans at Belmont. BELMONT, N.

Hoe donied the chargos of some of thoe Eastern papers that he is He said: \I am a Democrat-- a Democrat of the stamp of Jefferson and Jackson.\ Ho advised the farmers to read their histories \and they would then know that Lincoln, if he was alive, would be on the side of silver.\ 'This statement brought forth a number of hisses. Noth- ing daunted, however, the sonator con- tinued, and said he would like to meet Bourke Cockran to refute some of the statements made by him. Smali Hopes of Fusion In Missouri. KANSAS CITY, Aug. 22.-Tho 'Times says the prospects for Ension between the Dem- corats and the Populists in Missouri are vory slim. At the recont meeting of the Democratic central committoe, Chairman Cook was instructed to see what the Pop- wlists desire. It would seem from his in- vestigation that that particular wing of the party whichis now in control of the state organization does not want to do any thing which will help the cause of freo ailver, 'They scom to belong to the Texas wing of the: party and there seems to be no reason to believe that they ever intend- ed fora moment to consont to anything within reason. 6 Bland Opens the Maryland Campaign.

NIAXTIC, Conn., Aug. 22.-Governor's day, thoe biggest day of the week at the annual enciumpment of the Connecticut National guard, was marred by an incipi- ent riot, which occurred at the station, whore a detail of troops had drawn up to meet General Nelson A. Miles. Cortain civilians running omnibuses to and from the station refused to stand <back when ordored to do so by a guardsman. The militiaman was disarmed and a struggle ensued. It became necessary for the of- cers to interfere and in one case an offices : drow his sword. The bulbs of daffodile have been mis- trken for leeks, and boiled in soup with disastrous effect, nauseating the entire } family, the hildren not recovering for several days. 'The word \fe or its equivalent in sound, exists in all languages, and in every one is expressive of disgust. In the Isclandic the word \pful\ means putrldity.

Business Outlook, as Re- ported by Dun's. FEW CHANGESIN SITUATION POLITICAL EVENTS KEEPING GENERAL TRADE IN AN UN- SETTLED STPATE-INCREASE IN EXPORTS OVER IMPORTS- RAPID MOVEMENT OF GRAIN AND COTTON. NEw YoRK, Aug. 22.--R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade says: ' Political events of the week had no def. inite influence upon business prospetts, for the phenomenal variations in sterling exchange and the beginning of imports of gold may be fairly attributed to the ac- cumulating excess of merchandise exports over imports, to which attention has been repeatedly called, exports from New York for the past two weeks having been 20 pet cent larger and imports here 21 per cent smaller than last year. The rapid movement of grain and the unusually early marketing of cotton, tend strongly to aid the banking syndi- cate which has undertaken to regulate foreign exchanges. Speculation has advanced wheat 1 cent during the week, corn a small fraction, and cotton five-eighths, the principal mo- tive power being reports of injury to growing crops. As before, the unfavora- ble accounts respecting wheat are in some measure discredited by the continued beavy movement from the farms, West ern receipts having been 10,697,137 bushels in two weeks, against 6,759,868 bushele last year. With prices 8 cents lower than last year, such a movement cannot be inter- preted as a sign of deficient yield. The Atlantic exports for the same weeks have been (flour included) 4,892,660 bushels, agninst 2,995,233 last year, and while the increase is encouraging, it scarcely cor responds with current accounts of defi- cient yield in some foreign countries. \The movement of corn continues heavy, although the price is still so low that one wonders why the product is put into cars instead of into hogs. The alarm about the destruction of cot- ton has been most vigorously worked here and abroad, and has readily raised prices, although it is yet to be seen whether the yield has been so far diminished as to warrant a price 1 cent higher than a year ago. The boot and shoe industry, which con- tinues to lead all others in proportion of hands employed, is nevertheless rapidly wearing the end of past orders, excepting in women's grain and buff shoes, of which there are still orders for some weeks to come, while others are constantly re- ceived, but in other branches the new bus- iness is light. ' Prices aro a shade weaker, many deal- ers refusing to pay the advances which have been asked. The shipments from Boston for three weeks have been 256,116 cases, against 272,947 last year and 263,833 for the same weeks of 1894. Leather is weaker, with a small demand, although restricted supplies have caused a shade of advance in some kinds. Hides at Chicago averaged more than 3 per cent lower for the week again, the fall in the past five weeks having averaged about 25 per cent. Some additional heavy failures in the lumber trade call attention to the contin- uing depression, which appears to result, at least in part, from expectations enter- tained by many that the unlimited in- crease in new building during the past year or two would be permanent. Nothing encouraging can yet be said re- garding the wool manufacture and the demand for goods, even at recent reduc- tions in prices, is still disappointingly small. B The sales of. wool at the three chief markets hive been only 7,670,000 in three weeks against 16,847,200 last year and 28,- 861,400 in the same weeks of 1892. A heavy auction sale of cotton goods brought prices which were considered quite encouraging and the current de- mand is fairly maintained, although the mills are not inclined to make large con- tracts for the future in view of the rise in the raw material. In general the work- ing force in the textile branches does not appear to have increased. Failures for the week have been 28) in the United States against 222 last year and 27 in Canada against 48 last year. Secretary Carlisle In New York. NEW YORK, Aug. 22.-The presence of Secretary Carlisle down town and a con- ference he had with Mr. Bacon of J. P. Morgan & Co. caused some talk about the possibility of another bond issue. Mr. Carlisle called at the subtreasury early in the day and saw Mr. Muhleman, who, in Mr. Jordan's absence, is acting as assis- tant treasurer. In the afternoon he called again at the subtreasury and was in con- sultation for some time with Mr. Bacon and Mr. Mubleman. After Mr. Carlisle left Mr. Muhleraan said that the secre- tary's visit had no special significance; that he had not discussed anything or said anything that was a matter for pub- lic interest. Big Jewelry Firm Fails. NEW YORK, Aug. 22. -Leopold Weil & Co., importers of and dealers in jewelry, Maiden Lane, have failed. Their liabili- ties were estimated by their attorneys, Kays & Greenbaum, at $125,000. Of their assets, the attorneys said they could form little idea. It was added that it was hoped arrangements might be made ena- bling the firm to resume at an early day. The failure of the firm was precipitated by a refusal of the banks with which it dealt to grant further discounts until moneys already owing had been paid up and to the refusal of several creditors to grant any extension of time.

'This removes one of the grievances of the Vitlanders. - Biscayan, Irish, Albanian, Tartarian, BAR ASSOCIATION. OFFICERS ELECTED AND BUSL- NESS OF THE CLOSING SESSION TRANSACTED. SARATOGA, Aug. 22.-'The American Bar association elected the following offi- cers: President, James M. Woolworth of Omaha. ' Secretary, John Hinkley of Baltimore. Treasurer, Francis Rawle of Philadel- phia. Executive committee, Alfred Hemen- way, Boston; Charles Clafiin, St. Louis; William W, How, New Orleans. The association also elected a vice presi- dent for every state in the Union and members composing local councils in each state, . Extended discussion followed thepres- entation of a resolution to establish a section insurance, which was lost. On motion the special committes on patent law was continued. Saratoga, Denver and Indianapolis ex- tended invitations to the association to meet at the respective places in 1897, but the selection of a place was left to the ex- ecutive committee. The association adjourned sine die. Chauncey M. Depew presided at the an- nual banquet of the American Bar asso- ciation, which was enjoyed by about 260 distinguished persons in the Grand Union hotel ballroom. It was preceded by a reception in the club room adjoining, when Lord Russell, Sir Francis Lockwood and Montague Crackenthorp again meb the members of the association. After the menu had been disposed of Lady Russell, Lady Lockwood, Mrs. Moorfield Storey and other ladies were es- corted in and awarded seats of honor. Mr. Depew, as toastmaster, in his usual. felicitous and characteristic style made some brief opening remarks and offered as a toast, \The Lord Chief Justice of England,\ which was happily responded to by Lord Russell. The next toast was \The American Bar Association,\. which was replied to by re- tiring President Moorefield Storey of Bos ton, under whose administration was held the most successful and celebrated meeting in the history of the association. Sir Francis Lockwood responded in a very happy vein to ''The Wit of the Eng- lish Bar.\ ~ James M. Beck of Philadelphia, James C. Carter and Bourke Cockran of New York were also called upon and their ut terances rounded out one of the most famous banquets ever held at Saratoga The company did not rise till midnight. t | BURGLARS IDENTIFIED. l Bedford Station Desperadoes Recognized by Several Persons. NEW YORK, Aug. 22.-A revolver, fully | loaded, which is believed to have be- ¢ longed to one of the thieves who escaped. has been found about 100 yards west of the Adams store. 'Chere were traces of a man having crawled in the grass to the place, and this has caused the authorities to believe that the revolver was owned by the man now in the Long Island hospital. A regular jimmy and a. clawfoot jimmy were also discovered ndar the window through which the burglars got into the | store. A piece of brown cloth, believed to have been part of a pair of trousers, was also found, which may furnish a clue to the two thieves who got away. ° Sheriff Johnson of Westchester county and Benjamin A. Schenck, the black- smith of Bedford station, arrived in Brooklyn and on going to the Long Isl- and College hospital positively identified the man who came there on Thursday night with a gunshot wound in hig arm, as the one who made his escape after be- ing wounded in the fight with the burg» lars. 'The man is known to the Brooklyn police as Charles Jenkins. 'The larger of the two men now in the Mount Kisco jail is a brother-of the man in the Brook lyn hospital, while the smaller is Peter James. Jenkins has been further identified as John Clave, alias Gilmere, a noted bank burglar, whose picture is No. 21 in Byrnes' book of criminals; He was once convicted of murder for the killing of Henry B. Grove in Baltimore in 1865 and was sent- enced to be hanged, but was granted a new trial by the court of appeals and ac- quitted. _ > In order to further clinch-the identifica- tion, young Adams and the butcher Rey- nolds have been sent for and are expected to arrive in Brooklyn sometime today. WAR ON AMERICAN MONEY. Canadian Banks Continue to Receive ‘It, but at a Discount. TORONTO, Aug. 22.-The banks in To- ronto are daily becoming more suspicious of American money, and nbw not one of them will accept any form of American money at par to any great extent. - The Bank of Montreal, in Montreal, re- fused to take United States bills or silver from anyone. In Toronto that bank still received small amounts from customers and charged ! per cent. The Merchants' bank is also consider- ing the advisability of refusing all United States money, but bills are received from customers at a discount of 1 per cent. The Standard has for some time main- tained & discount of 10 pef cent. The Dominion now charges a discount of 2 per cent on national currency and 10 on silver certificates, and will receive from customers alone. Molsons charge 1 per cent to customers. 'The Toronto bank charges 1 per cent up to $20 and }¢ per cent on all large amounts, and will receive from every person. The Montreal and Imperial banks charge ¢ per cent. The Bank of Com- merce takes from i¢ to }¢ per cent. The Bank of Hamilton receives bills at par from customers in email amounts. A man at Lexington, Ky., a few days ago thought his young son was dead and ordered a coffin for him. Before the coffin arrived the boy revived, and now stands a good chance for recovery.
