AStan reporter made a visit this afternoon to tho vessel Persia to learn the particulars of the shipwreck and the rosoue of the erow. Capt. Malcolm of the Persia and Capt. B. 0. Benson of the Gusta Helene were both on shore at the time, but First Mate Hemphill told the story ina graphic manner. He said: “We were in north latitude 24.83” and about 69 west lon- Ritde, west of the Bahamas, on Thureda; November Battie Ponte TS saw a vessel fiying signals of distress, We tacked and hove to, and a boat from her came alongside with seven men in her.

Henry Clews’ “Weekly Financial Review, . During the greater part the past week Wall street relapsed into its old stagnancy, the partial revival of the previous week having proved to be but a transient ripple upon the dend calm of speculation. Neither the gain in tho bank —re- serves, nor the equally unexpected strength shown in the Bank of England's state- ‘unexpectedly mont of last week, not the gain of 8! per cent in the October gross earnings of the railroads, has had any important effect upon the mar- ket, and the transactions at the stock exchange shrunk to about one-third the volume of a really active business. ‘This condition of the market seems singu- larly inconsistent with the large hopes legi mately based upon the commercial stimulus that must attend the distribution of our ex- traordinary crops and the exportation of probably an unprecedented quantity of food roduets. The insensibility of the stock mar- ket to these inspiring prospects is no doubt due, in some measure, to a quieter condi- tion of the general trade of the country than has been expected under the circumstances of & prosperous year for the farmers. he chiof cause of the prevailing inactivity, however, is to be found in the European mar- kets. If cannot be denied that the situation is an unusually grave one, calling for the utmost conservatism, calmness and taking in of sail throughout Europe, | He would be a bold financier who would say that these European influences can have no bearing upon the future of American securi- tics. In my judgment, so long as this state of things continues, an oye had better be kept to the windward and conservative methods should prevail. Still, as the fecling in London is at resent showing some improvement and the Rank of ‘England is showing some gain in ite reserves, our market for securities is entitled towome’ recovery in prices and inci ac- tivity, at least for the coming week. == Washington Stock Exchange.

The “hustling committees” sent here by towns that would like to entertain the next re- publican national convention are working like beavers today. Yesterday they were busily engaged in showing everybody why their particular town should be the place. Today they are telling you why other Competing cities should not be selected. This kind of a campaign has not yet been carried to a disagreeable extent, but there is promise of a little friction as soon as New York puts in an appearance. The west—ihat is the large portion thereof which is at .and beyond the Mississippi—is fairly harmonious and the more frequently Omaha and Minneapolis men visit the San Francisco headquarters the more evi- dent is the harmony. They are all for the west, and if are sincere in their declarations they will be satisfied with the outcome if the convention alights and abides in. their territory. The Minneapolis people are, of course, for Minaeepolie, | in the rst place, but they adopted a resolution night which will be mated to the national committee on Monday; a resolution which states that “in the judgment of this committee ublie and especially party policy demand that e next republican convention be held in ‘the valley and the northwest, as tatives of ‘Minneapolis and St. Paul the region trib- ntary thersto, earnestly represent to the ne- tional committee that whatever else be the outcome of the present session of the com- mitteo the importance of holding the ensuing t and growing empire of the west should not be lost sight of or dis- tite Twre crrfes nanwoxrove. One of the touching features of the fight is the mutual fondness and admiration St. Paul and Minncapolis seem to have for each other. ‘The hatchet has been buried; how deep no one knows, but of a tempory interment, at least, there can be no'question, “The members of the dclegation are: From Minneapolis—Robert G.

Senator Manderson, Senator Paddock, Editor Kiosewater of the Omaha Bee, EL. Kimball =e BAnnin were ing a large pr neces- talk, and doing it well. Photographs of Omabe and of Omaba were scat- tered around, and there was altogether a pleas- antly busine impression made upon all visitors. Last night the Nobraskans held meeting at Senator Mandereon's house for the purpose of selecting some one to vote Mr. Kobertson's proxy, They did it. John M. Thurston was it choice and the Hon. W. E. Annin was the alternate. Several members of the Nebraske a truth and say there was absolutely no poli sion either before the meeting, during the same or afterward.

The delegations here after the convention are in dead earnest and every influence that can be brought to bear on the ‘committee will be ex- erted in favor of each city with not enough in favor of any one as against all the rest to raise the selection above favoritism. AN the delegates are praising the hospitality and enlarg: upon the ability of their respective cities to take care of e crowd attending a convention, but its evident that political considerations alone will determine the selection. The committee will want to be sure that the Gonvention can be ly cared for, but elegance of entertain- ment will probably not be tempting bait. Political considerations, it is believed, will con- About twenty-three of the national commit. teemen were 1 Waehington this morning, and the canvassing among them was opened in earnest soon after the breakfast hour. The lobbies of the Arlington and the headquarters of the various delegations were crowded with busy workers, every man pro- claiming the advantages of his city from every point of view. While the shouters kept their end up with the crowd, the old political manipulators were conducting sage conferences in whispered tones in corners and out of the wny places. The Omaha folks, the delegation from Minneapolis and ‘that from California were active in the ficld, and while delegations from Detroit, Pittsburg, Cincinnati and New York are not duo’ until later this afternoon and evoning, representatives of each were on hand getting in all the work they could in advance. great many of chigan fc who have been in Now York on the same busi- ness arrived here this morning and are keeping their end up until the whole delegation arrives] It is expected that the big end of the delegation, which will arrive this evening in Gen. Alger’s private car, will doa deal of shouting. . CHICAGO WILL BE REPRESENTED.

NEW YORK 18 IN,Ransest. ‘The New York folks who'are already here do- clare that Now York is in earnest and intends to have the convention if she can get it,but the re- portis being diligently circulated that the move- merely a sham and that that city doesnot y want the convention. One of the New York delegates, Mr. Davis, indignantly repn- pudiated this report to'a Stax reporter. “New York,” he said, “wants the convention and is going to get it. We ask it for political reasons. New York is a close state and has been badly treated. If the committee want to show their good faith toward the re- publicans of the state they ;had better do it now. New York was sold out in the ship subsidy business and the world’s fair matter. If they are going to refase her this little crumb she now secks then they may as well give up all hope of power in the state.” A delegation of 200 New Yorkers will arrive this evening. ‘The Minneapolis folks are relying largely on their representations as to the adaptability of their city for convention purposes; that it will be neutral ground, as far as any influence for a particular candidate is concerned, and that the climate is Db at the season of ‘the year it is P to hold the convention. ‘The representatives of Detroit use similar mente, and add that there are good tical reasons why the convention should go to Detroit, the state being close and under the eye of the democracy.

It will be recalled that on October 12 last Mr. John Y. At Lee and others wrote » letter to the Commissioners, calling attention to the dangerous condition of the tracks of the Balti- more and Potomac Railroad Company at th strect and Maryland avenue end the narrow escape the cccupants of car No. i2 of the Belt Line hed from death while crossing these mirsioners referred the matter to Assistant At- torney S. T. Thomas for his opinion as to the Power of the Commissioners to make a police that street car drivers they are driving to a full sa steam railroad. that this crossing ts per pus one in the city two steam railroads conv there in addition to the street railway. Trains are not always on time and the only way the gateman can tell half the time when trains are coming in is when he secs them after they have turned into 6th street from Vir- ginia avenue, which, added to the constant and confusing shifting aud making up of trains, ang- ments the danger. Mr. Thomas says that au an- tomatic or electric signal maght be placed at this crossing to warn the gateman of the approach of trains and give him time to close the gutes before the engine is upon him. Mr. Thomas says he thinks the Commissioners ha: the power to regulate the movements of vel cles in public streets under the act of Januat 26, 1587, and suggests that section 14 of article 10 of the police regulations be amended by adding toit a requirement that drivers sh bring their cars toa full stop before crosxi the tracks of « steam railrond, if the Commis- sioners think such a regulation is necessary. —_ Latest Bartal Permits.
