Lincoln, minister from the United States to England, reached the city this | Morning from Chicago, He called on Secre- tary Proctor at the War Department early in the day and held quite a reception among his old official friends, He looks exceedingly j well, being somewhat stouter than he was while Secretary of War, and although the death of his son Abraham seems to have left certain strong marks of sadness about his face, he appears to be in the best of health. To a Stan reporter he said in a most positive manner: “The stories to the effect that I intend to ro- sign my post and that I shall remain henceforth in America are absolutely false. Iam here ona leave of ce, and shall remain for about forty or fifty days, after which I shall go back to England and resume my work. The reports to the contrary are without the least founda- tion.” He afterward visited the State Department and made a brief call on Secretary Blaine and Assistant Secretary Wharton, His visit to America is a most melancholy one, being for the | sabened of superintending the interment of the remains of his son in the Lincoln crypt at Springfield, IIL This was done Saturday evening in the presence of a number of the members of the Lincoln Monu- ment Association, THE REPUBLICAN MOSES. The Party ‘Turning to Blaine to Lead Them Out of the Wilderness. The republicans have got to pull themselves together aud agree upon some policy for the next session. Before the session begins there will probably be a conference of the leaders to discuss the situation, the matter having elready received some attention within the cabinet circle, The party must have some one around whom to rally their shattered forces and this leader must be some one not too seriously involved in ‘the defeat of last Tuesday. The general drift of opinion among republicans is that Blaine is the man to whom they must turn in their hour of distress to lead them out of the wilderness, It is said that even Mr. Harrison feels now that he made a mistake in not allyang himself more closely with Mr, Blaine, and particularly that he missed an opportunity when he failed to send his proposed reciprocity message to Con- gress, ‘There is considerable talk, more or less idie, about the republicans turning around now and modifying or repealing the McKinley bill. Of course they will do no such thing. But what will be done, unless jealousies pre- vent it, will be to try to give some character to the reciprocity feature. The reciprocity amendment adopted by Congress was nothing like what Mr. Blaine wanted; but it is believed that a broad construction may be given to it, and new legislation on the subject enacted if necessary, and that something may be accon- plished by vigorous and prompt action in the State Department in the matter of making treaties hich will broaden our markets on the American continent and with Cuba, Many re- publicans who fully appreciate the meaning of their defeat look to Mr. Blaine to do something in this direction to save them and are ready to turn the party command over to him. It is expected that the stroke attempted at this session will be to agitate tbe reciprocity question so as to distract attention from the McKinley law, and at the same time to steer as clear as possible of the radical course which was followed during the last session, NOT MEANT TO BE FUNNY. An Army Order Which Makes War Department Officials Smile. Army orders are rarely jocular in tone, but one that hus just,been issued leads to the suspi- cion that a “fuyny man” bas been at work on it, although it is stated that its author had not the slightest intention or joking. It reads as follows: Heapquanrers DepantMent oF CaLIFoRNtA, San Francisco, Oat., Oct. 31, 1890. Circular No. 4, Officers {serving on ® court-martial are in- structed that nothing but the Providence of God, an order from higher authority or an im- perative order from a commander on tho spot to meet an emergency justifies a member in ab- senting himself from the court. No leave of absence and no other duty, except in an ex- treme emergency, can relieve an officer serving on a court without the action of the convening authority, By command of Brigadier General Gibbon, O.

No credence is given the report coming from Tennessee that Mr. Tracy is to go on the Supreme bench and Representative Henry Clay Evans is to succeed him in the cabinet. It is understood that the new justice is to come | from the west, and the name of Senator Allison is being mentioned in some quarters today. It is generally understood that if Mr. Harri- son was going to elevate any of his cabinet to the Supreme bench he would select Attorney General Miller, but that he has reasons for deeming this nomination inadvisable at this time. »Revenve Arrornraent.—The Secretary of the Treasury has appointed Chas.

A Semi-Panicky Feeling on the Open- ing of the Exchange This Morning. New Yorx, Nov. 10.—At the opening of the stock exchange this morning there was a somi- panicky feeling. Arbitrage stocks were known | to be 2 per cent off in London and offerings in St. Paul, Louisville and Nashville, Union Pacific and Reading stocks were made in this market upon the London basis. Bids were fewand brokers with stop orders had a few disagreeable moments before the market steadied. Outside of arbitrage stocks prices were made on stop orders. In C. C. and St. Louis, which closed at 613¢ Saturday, the first sale today was at 59'g ‘and the price then rapidiy declined to 55; Westera Union, which closed at 791g, sold on about 500 shares to 74 As soon as the stop orders were out of the way the market rallied. Western Union recovered 3hy per C._C, and St. Louis recovered 4, Reading 2 and Missouri Pacific 1 per cent. An apprehensive feeling was shown, how- ever, by bids being made above the market price on buyer three stock. ‘Iraders tried to make purchases buyer thirty, but without suc- cess, The declines from Saturday's closing to the low prices of the first ten minutes today were as follows: Atchison, 11g; Union Pagitic, 134; St. Paul, 2; Missouri Pacifi Lacka- wanna, 2'¢; New England, and Q., 3; W. U., 5%, and C. C. and St. Louis, 6 Lake Shore, North American sugar trusts, Wheeling and Lake Erie and Chicago gas showed con- siderable strength. EVERY ONE WANTED TO SELL. Manhattan and preferred fell from 100 to 92. Only at the opening was the excitement mani- fested, but, although the brokers continued ap- parently calm, there was a determination al- most universal among them to close out every- thing but the strongest accounts. ‘The sales were enormous in the first hour, but in that time everything pressing seemed to have been sold and the rest of the selling appeared to be only on small orders from commission houses. The traders made a rash effort to bid prices up and they rallied some stocks about 1 per cent, but when stocks began to come out they re- tired. The market at 11:45 was about 2 to 4 per cent below the opening, The sales in the first two hoursamounted to over 215,000shares, THE STRAIN TOO MUCH FoR urM. New York, Nov. 10,—Mr. James b. Struthers, fifty-eight years old, a specialist in Chifigo and eastern Iilinois, was stricken with apoplexy on the floor of the stock exchange at noon to- day and business was suspended temporarily. His body was at once removed to his office on w street. Promptly at 12:30 the stock ex- change resumed business, Struthers’ dead body lay on the floor sur- rounded by the brokers for some time. Not a word was spoken, but the brokers with uncov- ered heads waited for the officials to act. They had an unwelcome task to perform. On the last and only other occasion when death en- tered the exchange, business was at once sus- pended the rest of the day, but on account of the situation today the officials could not close the Ape! and at 12:30 business was re- sume THE RUSH TO SELL after the recess, caused by the death of Mr. Struthers, caused the lowest prices of the day. bué with the exhaustion of the selling orders which then appeared a number of the brokers who had been heavy sellers in the early deal- ings turned and bought heavily. Araily was soon under way and the market was quiet with prices 1 to 2 per cent below the lowest of the day. Lackawanna made the greatest recovery.

Curcaco, Nov. 1¥.—Gen, Nelson A.

He says mauy of the Sioux and Cheyennes now assert that they have already seen the Messiah, among othera “Old Por- cupine,” a prominent Cheyenne chief, who last winter made a trip with a large party of braves to Wyoming and said he had been taken to the Messiah by some Bannock Indians whocame over the mountains to act as guides, Old Porcupine reports that the Messiah is the white man’s Christ,returned after eighteen hundred years to visit the red men. The Mes- siah is white and wears bis head so muffled that his face cannot be seen. His hands, how- ever, still bear cruel scars from the wounds in- flicted by the white man ceuturios ago. These sears serve to remind the Indian of his @uty to the Messiah, who will bring all good things it he is only faithful to his old traditions apd customs, “There is nothing particularly new in the latest cra: aid the general. The Indians are great dreamers. They seldom if ever work and consequently have plenty of time to sit around and pray and dance and fast.
