Lat Tors to To St GOLD SHIPNENTS THREATENED. Sterling Exchange Reaches = Point Where it Cau be Doue Profitably. NEw Yorx, Dec. 22.—The absorbing in Wall street to-day hee been the savanee fa the ratgs for foreign ex: ‘the quotation for de- mand sterling bills reaching the point at which sbipments ean be made at @ prodt—490% for Fates and 489% for actual business. ‘There was an e2gagemant for $100,000 gold {bis afternoon for shipment on Saturday, and it is generally believed that further shipments in moderate amounts will be made. The im- mediate cause for this advance has been the advance in the Bank of England rate of dis- count last’ week, but @ more di- fect and potential cause is to be found in the extremely light shipments of grain to Liver. other European ports, especial Wheat, while the visible vapply of wheat in this country is far in excess of previous years. Mer- chants who are familiar with the subject also say that a considerable quantity of cotton was sold last July by the planters deliverable in 90 days, and that when the de- liveries were made there was a considerable ad- vance in the price of spot cotton, which gave considerable dissatistaction to ‘the it ers, and led them to hold the stock then on hand for higher prices, regult- 18 ncinalmited amount of” | colton bills on the market at present. It is claimed, however,that this will have the effect of steady ing the Market throughout the winter, as shi ments of cotton will be made continuously in moderate amounts, ‘The rates for sterling bills are now about the same as they were at the time that shipments were made in April und May, 1884. A break in the price of wheat, It is generally conceaed would lead to the substitution of wheat for gold in the future settlement of our trade balan with Europe. ee es A MODEL POLICE FORCE. What a Tour of Inspection Revealed to the Mayor of Vincennes. Vincexns, IND., Dec. 22,—Last night Mayor ‘Wilhelm and a committee of the council made u tour of the eity to see how the police officers were attending their duties. One of the officers was found at home in bed, another drunk, a third in a house of prostitution and the fourth asleep in @ saloon, This comprises the entire force. ————__—_ Buried in a Gravel Pit. THREE MEN CAUGHT UNDER A CAVING BANK— TWO DANGEROUSLY INJURED. CLEVELAND, Onto, Dec. 22.—A serious and probably fatal accident occurred in the eighteeeth ward at six o'clock this morning. Pierre Laure, a teamster, has been engaged for some weeks past in hauling gravel, which he procured at a huge bed in the southern part of the city. He had engaged to help him a Bohemian, named Barkowski, and a Pole, ‘whose name could not be learned. At the hour named the trio entered the gravel bed and be- gan. Sieging in a deep cavern that had been hol- lowed out in the side of the hill. They had not worked long when James Moses, a bystander, called to them to getout that the bank was caving in, His warning came too late, for be- fore the men could emerge from the drift » huge mass of gravel had caved in and buried them out of sight. Moses gave the alarm, and willing hands soon set to work to rescue the buried men. At about 7 o'clock ‘Laure was uncovered, and found to be lying on his tace, unconscious, with one leg crushed under lim. The Bohemian was found soon afterward aiso lying upon his face and uncon- scious, ‘The Pole was the last to be taken out, but strange to say bad suffered the least Injury of allthree, and was conscious when found. ‘The Bohemian is thought two be fatally injured, and Laure’s chances tor recovery are very slight. The Pole wili recover. Buia A Mortgage for Over a Million. Eniicorr Ciry, Mp., Dec. 22.—A mortgage has been left at the clerk's office here for record from the United Lines telegraph company. to the Farmers’ Loan and Trast company, of New York, tosecure an Indebtedness of $1;200,000 to various persons, the said telegraph company having issued twelve hundred $1,000 bonds, payable on the first day of July, 1905. ———e The Northwestern Indians. NO FEAKS OF AN OUTBREAK IN CANADA—PAY- ING THE BILLS OF THE RIEL CAMPAIGN. Orrawa,Ost., Dec. 22.—Alexander MeGib- bon, who was the government transport and supply officer at Calgarry, is in town, that the recent reports of the rising of th and other Indians in the Alberta district were greatly exaggerated. Beyond a few caves of horse stealing in the viclnity of Fort McLeod, the members of the various tribes are unusually uiet. The American Indians, across the bor- ler, need not be expected to commit any in- ruads on the British territory, on account of the stringent meusures adopted’ by the American government. The Blackicet tribe, which is the Strongest and most warlike tribe in the territo- ries, are still friendly. Speaking of the work accomplished by the war commission, Mr. Me- Gibbon suid between 1,000 and 1,200 claims huve been considered, and the amount paid out in Winnipeg for the contingent expenses of the campaign, including claims liquidated, is about $3,250,000, Pence Concluded. FRANCE ACQUIRES A PROTECTORATE OVER THE ISLAND OF MADAGASCAR, Paris, Dec. 22.—A government dispatch from Médagas@ar says: Peace between France and Madaguscar has been concluded. It is re- ported that the treaty of peace gives France @ protectorate over the whole of Madagas- car, aud that there will be a French resident at Tananarivo, the capital, who will be charged with the ‘duty of conducting the foreign affairs of Madagascar, and, who wiil be attended by,a permanent guard. French troops will occupy Tamatave unul a war indemnity of 10,000,000 francs Is paid. ——— FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL The New York Stock Market. ‘The following are the opening and 2:30 p. m. prices of the New York Stock Market to-day, as reported by ‘Dodge, 539 15th’ ‘New and Second-hand Pianos of other makes alws in stock at low figures. au a Heavovarrers Fon Ger Fixe 4 SLIPPERS!
