New Onzeaxs, Feb. 6.—Tne arrival of about 500 ritles: and 2,600 rounds of ammunition con- signed to Col. Crandall, chairman of the demo- cratic state committee, on the steamship El Paso from New York, is noted by the New Delta, accompanied by strong editorial remarks, con- cluding ae follow: fo the Winchester in the hands of the hire- ling oppose the Winchester in the hands of the freeman. Let every crack of a lottery rifle wake as an answering echo the report of an anti-lottery one. If the hoodlams of New Orleans appear on tha stredts of the city armed with weapons placed in| their hands by this lottery committee sweep them from the face of the earth. If streets of New Orleans are to be reddened with blood let it not be alone the blood of her good citizens. If wholesale murder has been re- solved upon by the lottery let the people re- solve upon who shall do the executions.” In reply the Erening Sales says Mr. Foster of St. Mary, the candidate of the antis for gov- ernor, was the first man who raised the ery of rifles in this contest. Every five hundred’ bill means every pro-lottery vote, be said in sub- stance, was to be met with a 725 rifle. In view of these facts, argues the Siales, it 1s not aston- ishing that the democratic committee have taken the necessary steps to protect their free- dom of opinion and of the ballot.

He remained until the followmg spring, when he went further west, accumulating some | money, and went to Chicago, where be is now engaged in the leather business. Williams’ parents lived near Springfield, Ill. The father was killed in the battle of Corinth. The mother had just given birth to a girl baby.

Lispox, Feb. €.—The motion made in the chamber of deputies yesterday by Senor Arri- jing the impeachment of Senor valho, ex-minister of finance, has been referred to a committee. The motion grew out of Senor Carvalho'é action while holding the portfolio of minister of finance m advancing to the Koyal Railway Company the sum of 13,000,000 francs on bis own responsibility and without the Lnowledge of his colleague. About the middle of just month Senor Car- yalho informed the council of ministers of what he had done and the president of the council Inid the matter before the cortes. The resident said that the council of ministers bad leclined to accept any responsibility in the matter and Senor Carvalho had resigned. The presidentfurther declared that the efforts to find a man who would accept the office of finance minister had failed and that in conse- quence the whole ministry had resigned. Senor Carvalho afterward explained in both chambers the nature of bts proceedings during his term of office. He stated that he had arranged for payments amount- ing to 17,000 contos of reis during this period, and when he accepted office the only resources available were 600 contos remaining from the tobneco luan.

Same, Reon. Neil ier Louis. & Nasi. Manhattan Review of the Market. Henry Clews’ Veekly Financial Review,” issued today, say During the past week the course of business at the stock exchange has been quiet, irregular and, on the whole, toward lower prices. The market has, for the momeut, fallen into the hands of the professional traders, among whom, as usual, the “bear” temper predom- inates. ‘The’ outside public and the iarger bull operators seem willing that matters should take this course for a while. They have realized handsome profits or the January advance; and, in the absence of any very pro- nounced “uli” feeling at the present stage, they deem it good tactics to with- hold ‘their’ support and permit the “bears” to knock several points off prices and then take in new lines for a fresh advance. There is no sufiicient reason for construing this change of temper as meaning that the speculative feeling has collapsed, or tbat prices are destined to any important reaction. It means simply that the spirit of speculation at the moment is conservative and that the “bull” leaders, appreciating this, deem it wiser to en- ourage an undulating advance, with its ups and downs, rather,than to force prices in the direction of a straight upward line. In the meantime there is no surrender of the general conviction that prices must ultimately go higher and possibly much higher, but it is coi ceded that mouths may elapse before that ten- dency culminates, and, among speculative aders, it is preferred that the campaign should be so prolonged. ‘The extraordinary ease in the loan market can hardly possibly fail to produce an active, if not excited speculation, ‘ne “bears” advance as their chief argument against wn upward movement in prices that the world over affairs are in a reactionary con- dition, which, they say, is attended with a com- mercial depression which is incompatible with a “bull” market for securities. There is a semblance of truth in this, but nothing more. ‘The reasoning would be sound if the depression to which it refers was the consequence of panic and its usual attendant widespread bankruptey. ‘The only dark spots in the home situation are the depression of business and the backward- ness of payments at the south and the dullness of trade on the Pacific coast, both of which are mainly the consequences of undue expansi of speculation or over-creations of co: porate capital in the respective sections, Our inference from the toregoing factors is that the market is destined toa higher range ft prices as the year progresses, but that tl culmination is Hkely to be reached by a series of ups and downs--possibly a prolonged one- and that, therefore, it is not safe toscil “short stock after the recent deciine, but wise for the moment to buy on the drops and realize quick profits.

A regular weekly day of mecting was selected at the time of organization of the com- mittee, butin view of the faét that there is very little for the committee to do until the bill which the managers of the exposition will ask Congress to pass is drafted, Chairman Durborow stated at the last meeting that regular sessions would not be held for the present, and the committee ad- journed, subljeot to the call of the chair- man. The committee will not be unneces- sarily called together, and will probably not hold any mectings for some time yet. In this members will not be wearied with useless commitice sessions, and it is believed that when there is a necessity for a meeting it will be easy to secure a full attendance. The resolution offered by Mr. Dickerson of Kentucky, calling for an investigation by the judicinry committee into the constitutionality of the world’s fair project and of government aid to it in the shape of appropriations, is viewed with complacency by Mr. Durborow and the friends of the exposition.

Inno place did he find any symptoms of moisture or decay. There was nothing, therefore. in the statements that Senators had a great surplus o: documents for which they bad wo use, and it was also very certain that moisture and decomposition could not be found in the places where they hud been alleged to exist, The committee charged with the investiga- tion into the basement und its condition con- sisted of Senators Allen and Cockreil. They were accompanied on their tour by Nergeant- at-Arms Valentine. ——$$-2.—____—— ‘The Battle on Skates, From St. Nicholas. Once upon a time King Philip of Spain went to war with Holland, the couutry where the jand is lower than the sea level and there have to be big wails, called dykes, to keep the water from sweeping over the fields. This fight was a desperate one, for King Philip was so. eager to subdue the country that he waged the war with all the means at his command.

The city was almost surrounded by water, then frozen over, as it was winter. ‘There were a few ships lying near Haarlem, but they were held fast by the fcc, and might cutily have been captured bad not the saizors dug a trench all around them and fortified them against the enemy. Don Frederick arrived he sent a body of woldicrs to attack the +l diers marched out to the vessel ik to cap- sprang from the trench. The Hollanders were used to skating from their very bebybood, for in winter t and sea were frozen for miles aror everybody skated. Not only di th for fu to market and their ness, just a8 ca 5 they ‘could walk. They used to bave games and sham battles on the ice, so that when there was need for real fighting, they knew what to do. But the Spaniards lived in a southern coun- try where there is little ice, and they never went sliding or skating. When they saw the Hollanders dart out at them, their feet shod With steel, appearing almost toy in the air, they thought the enemy must be aided by witheraft. “They were tempted to run, such was their amazement and terre However, when the bullets came flying amor them they tried to pick up their courage an fight.
