EGYPT'S Abbas Pasha Welcomed With Great Pomp at Alexandria—He Goes to Cairo, Camo, Jan. 16.—Prince Abbas, the new khedive, this morning entered the harbor at Alexandria from Trieste on board a steamer. The steamer was accompanied by a number of British war ships, which, as they entered the harbor, thundered forth a royal salute. The Egyptian vessels took up the refrain and from their guns belched flame and smoke as their youthful ruler came to take possession of the throne of his father. All the vessels were be- decked in rainbow style and the sight was very pretty. | All the members of the Egyptian cabinct, Gen. Grenfell of the Egyptian army, Justice cott, Egypt's medical adviser, and T'rince ussein boarded the steamer and welcomed the kbedive. Moukhiar Pasha, Ligh comimis- sioner of the sublime porte to Egypt, hud in- tended to take part in receiving the khedive, but he is suffering from attack of intluenza aud had to forego his intention. ‘At 5:80 o'clock the khedive ianded from the steamer and was received with great enthusi- asm. He was met by the principal civil and military officials and a guard of honor, com- posed of British and Exyptian troopa. At i0 o'clock he touk a special train and proceeded to Cairo. eee CARDINAL MANNING'S FUNERAL. It Will Be Held on Next Thursday Morning. Loxpos, Jan. 16.—It hus been finally decided that the funeral of Cardinal Manning shall be held at the Brompton oratory on Thursday next. The services will begin at 11 o'clock a.m. Requiem mass will be said by Hon. Wm. Clif- ford, bishop of Clifton, and the sermon will be reached by the Right itev. John C. Hedley Eithop. of "Newport. ‘Ihe ‘music will Gregorian and sung entirely by the clergy. it will be of the most severe and solemn char- acter. ‘Thechurch, which is one of the most beautiful in London, will be shrouded in black. A lofty catafulque will be erected in the center aisle, around which lighted candles will be placed and upon which the casket containing the remains will be deposited. The ceremoutes will be of the most elaborate character and are expected to last about two hours and a half. On Thursday night the body will be trans- ferred to the oratory, where it will le in state a day longer and be exposed to the view of the public. A limited number of people were admitted today to the late cardina!’s retidence to view the body. There was an immense crowd before the doors anxidus to take a last view, but, ‘owing to the want of space within the building, admission had to be restricted. At the church, it ia believed, all who wish will have an op- portunity to look upon the features of the joved cardinal. a THE COLD WAVE IN THE WEST. It is One of the Most Severe im Kecent Years. Carcaco, Jan. 16.—Speciats from various portions of the state indicate that the prevail- ing cold wave is one of the most severe of any im recent years, At Vandalia the thermom- eter stood 16 below—lower than for eleven years; Monticello reports 17 below; Danville, sirbury, 13.

Loxpox, Jan. 16.—The general gloom caused by the death of the Duke of Clarence and Avon- dale will havo a very bad effect upon the Lon- don amusement world.

Sax Drroo, Car, Jan. 16.—Admiral Brown was interviewed last night for his opinion as to the report that a vessei had been chartered by government to take acargo of coal from Nanaimo to Chile. He said he did not believe a word of it; that the government would not take coal there except under stress of circum- stances. “We can got all the coal we want at Acapulco and in Peru,” he said, "and it is absurd to think government would go way up to Nanaimo.” With refercuce to the probabic fature move- ments of the eruiser the admiral would not ad- it that he ku thing as to the future, as he Baltimore, Charleston aud Sun Francisco aro under orders to await further instructions.

IN WALL STREET TODAY. Decreased Amount of Trading on the Stock Exchange. New Youn, Jan. 16.—The dealings in stocks during the two hours of business today were even smaller than during the morning hours of yesterday. The market opened firm, with prices 34 to 34 per cent higher for most of the list, and during the early dealings the tone con- tinued firm.

The followin the Rew ert tive to Coren Review of the Market. Henry Clews' “Weekly Financial Review,” is- sued today, says: ‘Lhe past week in Wall street may be regarded as « sort of test period. Ithas scored a large advance in prices, and operators have sold quite heavily to realize sires During tho previous week also there ad been considerable realizing, aud the prob- ability is that during the two weeks an import- ant proportion of the stocks held by the in- fluential promoters of the boom passed intonew hands. ‘Lhe way in which the market bas acted may be regarded as a fair indication of the temper and sirength of the situation; and the result of this test cannot be construed unfavor- ably. If the principal seliers have been the class of large holders, and if to their sales there have been added Inrge ‘short’ transactions by the room ‘bears’--which appears to have been the fact—it seems a fair inference that there 1s an increasingly important ‘outside’ element in the market, and that conclusion is confirmed by the fact that,on the whole, prices have been firm under these liberal realizations. T1 rket thus seems to have entered upon a phase in which it is less depend- ent than previously upon large manipulators who are anxious to renlize, and more depend- eutupon a sanguine class of miscellaneous operators who have thought stocks worth buy- ing at current prices and are therefore disposed to hold them for a further rise. “It may be said that already prices of stocks have advanced sufticieatly to discouut all favor- able features. There is truth in this ¥ it would be prudent for those whose show profits to realize on them and wait for a But, at the same time, it may prop- erly be kept in mind that in periods of specu- lative activity prices are not apt to be ad- justed, even approximately, to the intrinsic value of the properties.

ACTIVE PREPARATIONS BEING MADE IN ALL THE ‘NAVE YARDS—CHILE ALSO GETTING READT FoR WAR—TBE MOUSE FOREIGN AFFAIRS COMMITTER CALLS OF GEORETARY BLAINE. The most active preparations for a demon- stration against Chile are in progress at the various navy yards under urgent orders from the department It is ald that the Secretary has become thoroughly convinced that this is necessary in view of bis belief that there will be no change in the present attitude of Chile. A factor in this belief is thought to be the in- formation cabled north by Admiral Walker at Montevideo to the effect that 100 torpedoes have just been shipped through that from Europe for Chile If Tite be true it would seem as though Chile were at lenst preparing for war herself, and this view leads to the theory that she bas de- cided upon her course of action. Chile bas by this time had sufficient warning of the tem; of the United States to understand that ease has come down to @ choice between an ‘apology or a fight and ifshe be making ready for war it can hardly be as Go pigacoamad measure when sho has the gauntlet in her own hands to fling down or to put away. OTHER UNMISTAKABLE REPARATIONS. Other unmistakable preparations are to be discerned, it is said, such as the dispatching of aficet of three cruisers and a torpedo boat from Val; under sealed orders, which ‘was reported from Chile from private sources feteriay ‘li us tive prevailing opinion at the avy Department that this fleet is bound for the Straits of Magellan, which will be, to a cer- tain extent, the key to the southern half of the situation. A comparatively small number of well-armed vessels ndvantageously placed in thore straits could, in the opinion of naval experts, bold that important passage against alarge fieot. ‘This would not necessarily prevent the ultimate value of stocks, and there 1s a limit of prices at which they are willing to scll; aud therefore it is prudent to bo satistied with moderate profits and take into account the possibility of reac- tions.” _———— Washington Stock Exchange. lar call—12 o'clock mz Riggs In- ny, 19 at S.

The theory is, however, that itis the desire of the Chilean government to afford ample protection to its important coal and supply atation at Porto Cabello, in the straits. The capture of this station would be a serious blow to the enemy, and might ulti- mately be made an object of a campaign in the southern waters in case of hostilities. Ax it is the Chilean vessels—supposing the straits to bo thcir destination—can easily reach thi int before Admiral Walker, who is now at lontevideo with the Chicago, Atlanta and Ben- nington. ‘The Concord is also on her way to Montevideo. Other vessele are stationed on the Pacific as follows: The Yorktown is at Valparaiso; the Boston is at Callao, Peru; the Charleston, San Francisco and Baltimore are at San Fraucixco. Besides these new shipa there are the Essoxand Yantic at Montevideo. ACTIVITY AT THE NAVY DEPARTMENT. Secretary Tracy was in his office all the morning seeing members of Congress and other callers, The Navy Department was in constant telegraphic communication with the navy yards and naval stations in all parts of the country severai hours last night. CONGRESEMEN CALL ON MB. BLAINE. Five of the members of the House committee on foreign affairs called at the Department of State just before noon today to pay their re- spects to Secretary Blaine. The visit was in pursuance of a long-established custom, whereby at the beginning of each Congress the committee of the House which has to do with foreign relations calls upon the Secretary of State. Usually these visits ure purely formal and particularly is this true when the majority of the House is politically oppored to the Secre~ tal But the call made by the committee today was awaited with interest, for it was expected that the strained relations between this country atid Chile would bo touched uponby the Secretary. ‘The tive mem- bers of the committee were Chairman Blount and Messrs. Hooker, Geary, O'Donnell and Harmer, and according to their statements Secretary Blaine did not make a single direct allusion to our relations with Chile. To the surprise of the committee he did call to their attention the neceesity for speedy action by Congress upon the Nicaragua canal project. ADVOCATING THE NICARAGUA CANAL. ‘The Secrotary was fully equipped with facts and figures to support his reasoning and very fluently be described the political importance of the canal, the volume of traffic which would robably pass through it and the advantages S accrue from a retention of its man- agement and control in American hands. Incidentally, it was le clerr to the committee that the possession of such a water- way between the Atlartic and Pacific oce would be of enormous strategic advantage if it should be necessary to trausfer our naval vewsels from one side of the country tothe other. NoT A WORD ADOUT CHILE. But of Chilean troubles tho Secretary said not a word directly. It cannot be learned that any communications have passed this mornmg between the State Department and Minister Eagan, nor was Senor Montt, the Chilean min- ister, at the department, Soveral Senators and Representatives called upon Secretary Blaine during the forenoon. One of the former, who is from an interior western state, said that he had beard nothing directly fromthe Secrotary relating to Chile, but he did feel that this country shonld now as- sert its dignity and spank the bumptuous little South American republic. CONGRESS WILL SUSTAIN THE PRESIDEXT. ‘There is no room for doubt that the general sentiment in Congress, without regard to party, is in favor of sustaining the President fally in his position in defense of the national dignity against Chilean assaults. ‘There 18 apparently no expectatioa on the part of those well informed that war will be prevented. In fact, it is very generally re- garded as. substantially a certainty that there will be a declaration of war and that oslo | @ question of a few days before Congress bave the matter before them. If the correspondence when it is received from the President discloses the state of affairs that it is expected to it is believed that there will be but one voice in Congress, and that will be for prompt and vigorous action. The southern men, without any thought of tho advantuge Mr. Harrison might derive asa Presidential candidate, are disposed to hold up his bands in this matter and to prove their de- votion to the nation to rise above sectionalism or partisanship. NO HALF-WAY, MEASURES. ‘The general idea among members appears to be that when war is declared there must be no half-way measures, but that the geography of South America must be changed as regards one country. The question of cost will hardly onter into the matter, but provisions will be mado to send abnndred’ thousand meu to Chile if they are wanted. VISITORS AT THE NAVY YARD. ‘There is an idea prevalent that orders have been issued to keep the public from the navy yard, but this is positively denied at the Navy Department. It is there stated that bo passes whatover are required at the gates at resent, but that just as scon as war has been MScinred there will be an order tarued keeping everybody out of the yard who does not bear a card of admission. This is to be done to pre- vent damage tothe plant by persons unfriendly to this government. GUNS COMPLETED. ‘There are now completed at the Washing- ton gun foundry twenty six-inch rifles and sixteen of the eight and ten-inch calibor, making a presont stock of thirty- six guns of mest modern patterns that aro practicall; ailable for immediate use. It usually takes about fifty days of eig! hours cach to make a six-inch gun, but when the tweuty-four hour system is see iuto tion this period can be cut down to seventecn days, COsT OF A TWELVE-INCR GUM. The twelve-inch gum recently completed at the navy yard forthe Monterey cost @46,000, sc¢ording to the final reports received at the Navy Department. The labor on it cost but €6,000.

Since Senator McMillun took an interest in the question last Congrers there has been foundation on which to build hope for relict and whe: chairman of the Senate District committee the hope grew to proportions that were imposing | and not unsubstantial. On several occasions Senator McMillan, through the me- dium of Tre Stan, informed the public that railroad matters would receive sal attention at his hands, and now he tulfilling the promises thus made. He has made a careful study of thesitzation and after mature deliberation bas formulated an outline pian mhich be Uelieves will be acceptable to th the people of Washington and the railroad authorities. 4 CONFERENCE WITH RAILROAD MEN. President Roberts of the Pennsylvania com- pany and Gen. Sewell, the company's legel ad- visor in congressional matters, havo just left the city. They came here on Thursday and gave » large proportion of their time to discussing some of the changes the com- pany deemed necessary and desirable. Gen. Sewell consulted with Senetor McMillan on Thursday, and yesterday morning President Koberts and the general called on Senator McMillan at his residence. A lengthy conference of the most practical nature fol- lowed. President Roberts realized that the Senator was experienced in railroad Matters and the conversation was ther: fore conducted on a business basis. Confidexces were freely exchavged and the Most gratifying progress was made. Mr. Roberts said he recognized the necessity for a new bridge across the l’otomac iu piace of the Long bridge, and he also saw that the crection of such a structure as was proposed would naturally bring about other improvements. ‘The tracks would have to ke readjusted—cith elevated or depressed —and various other im- cidental changes would be necessary. TO DRAW UP 4 PLAN. It was finally agreed that Senator McMillan should draw up his plan, and that as soon as that has been done there will be further con- ference. The company’s enginecrs are to sup- ply the Senator with all the technical informa- tion be may call for and everything is to be done by both parties to hasten action on the Propositions. ‘The terms advanced by the company are said to be liberal. but until Senator McMillan has completed his plan nothing definite will bo made public. When a final agreement is a bill will be drafted providing for the carrying out of such program ax may have been decided upon, and then it is expected that the committees, the company, the District Commis- siouers and citizens generally will endeavor to Push the measure through both houses. — Not Booming Gen. Alger. “There is no truth m the story published this morning that I had a conference last night at my house at Washington with Gen. Alger and some of the western Senators,” declared Senator Quay yesterday afternoon, in chat- ting with « number of friends in Philadelphia, according to the Inquirer. “The fact is,” he continued, “I did sce Gen. Alger yesterday, but at was in Senator MeMillan’s committee room, where, with » number of other Senators, I called ‘on the general to pay my rexpects.”* Having exploded what was looked upon by some as the biggest political sonsition of tho day, Senato> Quay said he stopped off in town merely to attend to some private business and to prepare for his libel smit, which comes be- fore the Beaver court on Monday next. ee footer a tor publication ~ ne regarding the proposed investigation The removal of ome ot supporters in the federal service, as the result of the attempt of champions of the national administration to elect Marshal Leeds and Mr. Henry to the Minneapolis convention. Judge Lindsey Will Decline. Judge Lindsey of Kentucky, whose nomina- tion asa member of the interstate commerce commission was sent to the Senate last week, saw the President today and stated that he had decided to decline to accept the nomination. Whether or not anything took place to induce Mr. Lindsey to withbold his declination or to reconsider his determination cannot now be learned. a Maj. Overman’s Case. Maj. Overman of the engineer corps, who is awaiting trial by court-martial on a charge | growing out of discrepancies in his accounts as officer in charge of the public works at Cleve- land, Ohio, bad a long interview this morning with Gen. Grant, assistant secretary of war, at the Wa: Department. He applied for’ permission to come to Washing- ton in order to explain certain muatwrs connected with his case. He complained bit- terly of the tone of the press in Cleveland, which bad criticised him somewhat severely Gen. Grant listened attentively to all be had to say, but could take no action. The trial will take place in Cleveland in about three weeks.

Consul Rafael Acosta, Mexican consul at Philadelphia, who bas been giving close atten- tion to the reports of the war situation at home, said yesterday that the revolution on the fron- tier by Cattano E. Garza was not really of euffi- cient importance to be called by the name of revolution. he continued, “the attitude of the so-called revolutionists hus been that of outiawry alone. Garza himself is unknown in the Mexican republic. Hix popa- larity runs in the same order as that of Igna~ cios Martinez, revolationist by protession, who was killed at Laredo, ‘1ex., about a yeur ago. “Garza is very well known, however. in the city of Sattelo, capital of the state of Coha- huila, whore the judiciary can gives full ac- count of him and his conduct, for which he wus compelled to fly to Texas to escape the vengeance of outraged law. ‘ihere he started in a newspaper enterprise in partnership with Martinez, Ruiz Sardoral,a deserter from the Mexican army, in which be was second lieuton- ant, and somo cther political desperadocs of the same stamp.
