Although the balance of parliamentary strength seems decidedly adverse to the g ernment’s home rule measure yet the minis- terialists assert that it is quite premature to regard the biil as lost. They believe if Glad- stone were to assent to strike out the clause excluding the Irish members from the imper- fal parliament, the followers of Chamberlain would either remain passive or support the bill as so amended. y also aver that ac- cording to their best caleulations tington and Chamberlain combined can command only eighty liberal and radical votes abso- lutely, The fate of the bill depends really on the courso ultimately taken by thirty-five members who, though elassed among the maleontents, are still unpledged to support Chamberlain-Harlington movement through thick and thin, and would probably be won over to the government by conc on the Irish membel b SOLIDIFY CIE MINISTRY, Chamberlain’s advocacy of the practical separation of Ulster from the rest of Ireland has soliditied Gladstone's decision not to ke any further concessions.

Dawson says that from this side of the Tecos, over in Mexico, as far north as Arizona, it is dryer than it has been in twenty years, Of 7,000,000 head of cattle in Texas, one-third are in the seetion visited by the drought, DYING BY THE TIOUSAND, Cattle are dying by the thou d for want of water and grass. There little grass anywhere near water and that little is so dry and dead that it does not contain enough substance to do cattle any zood. The cattle are very thin and gettIng thinner eve and if no rain comes within thirty days the cattle business in west Texas will be ruined, People are very gloomy over the outlook, The drought extends east as far as Big Springs. No clouds have been seen in months, Even if it should r now cattle would not get fat enough for market this year.

The Atchison to Balld an Alr Line Between These Cities. Cricaao, May 16,—~[S of authority—that of President Strong—that it is tne settled intention of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe company to build a line from the Missouri river to Chicago. There have been various indications for some time past that it was making preparations In that direction, but its intention has been variously interpreted. There was no secret made of the fact that a party of surveyors, which had been located at Keokuk for some time past, was in the employ of the Atchison road and conducting & survey in its interests, This Rty had been surveying both ways from liat point, and one portion has progressed as far east as Galesburg, while the other is mak- ing toward the Missouri river, PROPOSED AIR LINE It is the intention to survey an air line be- tween Chicago and Kansas City which will, when consiructed, be at least forty miles shorter than any other route. President Strong, while in this city a few days ago, distinetly stated that the Atchison, Topeka & Santa e would build a line from Kansas City to Chicago and complete it in two years, A survey being made in good faith and with that intention, It would be an air line, constructed without particular attention to local traflic. In going over the project with a gentleman who will be largely interested, Strong stated that the Atchison “would soon have 5,000 miles of road in operation and em- brace in its system west of the Missouri river, LOGIC OF THE SITUATION, The line to Galveston would put it on an equality with the Southiern Pacific in Pacific coast trade, equalizing the ocean route of the latter, which lias heretofore been so strong a :‘nvllnr in the competition for the Caiifornia rado. “‘But this,” said Mr. Strong, ‘‘docs not trench upon the Atchison systein; its Kansas territory is to be invaded by competing roads which haye heretofore ended at {lssour river, and with their through routes in com- petition, Atchison would be at a disadvant- age which could mot be overcome by any traflic agreement which pos- sibly might be made with tne Alton.

ALDERMAN BOODLE CONVICTED. Jaehne Receives the Verdict With Forced Composure, New Yonrx, May 16.—Alderman Jachne's al was resumed to-day. The counsel for the defense moved that the testimony of In- spector Byrnes and Detective Cosgrove as to the alleged confessions of the defendant be stricken out on the ground that they were made under inducement of hope and pressure of fear, 'The motion was denied. Detective Rodgerstestified that he had heard Jachne s to Byrnes in March last. His story ubstantially the same as that of Byrnes’, John Seott testified that Geo. W. Walter, Jaehne's former clerk, told him that the mouey had been kept in Jaehne’s safe over night. When he left the witness stand the district attorney announced that the prose- cution rested. The counsel v the defense moved that the indictinent i dismissed, as _the grand jury had been tricked into making a false presentiment, Judge Barrett overruled the motion. The counsel for the defense then made the opening arzument, wherein Byrnes and District Attorney Martine were accused of mrresting Jaehne in order to save them- selves, as Jachne’s testimony before the sen- ate committee implicated them in compound- ing felony. The prisoner at the bar being aced on the stand in his own behalf testi- i that he had been intimate with Byrnes, but denied emphatically having told him, as alleged, that he had received money for his vote. Ile had ne eived nor asked, nor been promised money for his vote.

Dullness the Provailing Tone in the New York Market, THE BULLS BECOMING FRISKY Woerishoffer's Death Disheartens the Bears—Will Western Union Gobble Baltimore & Ohlo— Speculators Stand Aloofs Bottom Figures Reached, New York, May 16.—[Special Telegram. | There has been one prevailing tone in the stock market during the past week, and that is dullness, Whatever movement has taken place has been wholly due to natural eauses, and not to any especial combinations or cliques, ‘The movement in coal stocks has been an excoption. But the action of the entire market is, after all, figuring between traders for small fractions, There seems to be but little doubt that the bottom figures have been nearly reached, although comparis sons of figures for the last three years show that prices are higher on nearly all leading stocks than they were at this time either last year or the year before. The .one great influence for low prices has gone, and that is Woerishoffer. As a stock operator he was more than feared, because he was a universal wrecker of values, While he lived members of the board were com- pletely terrorized. No one knew what stock he would attack next, consequently every purchase made was with cortaluty that it it showed any signs of life Woerishoffer would come down upon it and hammer until life was extimet. From ators did become bea now who can compare BULLING W N UNION. The bulls on Western Union point to the steadiness which that stock has been held d 62, and they say that most of the short it has been put out around that figure, and can not be covered without lifting prices. tensions of the Baltimore & Ohio sys- tem must have a depressing influence, how- ever, and must result in somewhat_of a de- cline in the receipts of Western Union, or as lins been 8o often done, the absorption of the system by the Westérn Union. ‘There has been a strong bull movement in Union Pacific, and they ¢ been showers ing ‘mims upon the market, claiming that the funding bill'will puss the “house in- good shape, Bears have no one ith him, ST.

Paul i ts ambition by reducing their not by choice or benevolence to St. Paul, but “from necessity. But above and beyond these little tales, which are now important because of the dead level of dull- ness, the bull feeling is really a strong dispo- sition in the market, and 1s apparently growing. Doubtless most of it is because of | their release from the fear of Woerishoffer, but it also a foundation in the conviction that we aro promlsed good crops and conse- quent business, RIKERS NELD RESPONSIBLE, It impossible to dig out of the hearts of many men that the expected and longed- for revival of business would have dawned upon us ere this had not the strikers interfered. So now that labor {roubles seem to be in a fair way of settlement the insist that the golden” day is here but s simply obseured by elouds. T'he public does not yét view the matter so favorably, At least they do not show themselves {n the stock market, and until the public does come there can be no legitimate demand for stocks, Many vet believe that the long listof depress- ing influences which haye been at work will be of ultimate benefit. Notwithstanding this | lopeful view the speculative publie is stand- 1 ing aloof from the market and the traders | hold it. There has been no material change | in the money market and exchange has been lower and easier kMRS THE SEIZED SCHOONER. American Fishery Union Will Fight the Adams Case to the End.
