The THE TICHBORNE ESTATE. What the Two Clatmants Ha: Say. NEW YoRk, June 14.—[Special Telegram to the Brr. |—To-day the coming of age of Sir Denry Alfred Tichborne and his succes- sion to the ancestral estates will be cele- brated in fine style in Hampshire, England. In an interview in the Herald, Arthur Orton, the famous claimant, referring to the act of parliament confirming the birthright title to the estates to the young baronet, sald: “That DISASTER ENDS THE DEAL. | Ohicago's Wheat Manipulation Comes to a Budden and Untimely Olose.

Cuicaco, June 14.—[Special Telegram to the Ber.|—The June wheat deal collapsed to-day. The enormous load proved to be more than the clique could stand up under. There was a conference of the principals and agents last night, at which it was re- solved to abandon the deal, itis said. 1n any event the deal was abandoned and the result wus a panic in the market to-day. June wheat broke about 19¢ and July nearly 10¢ before 1 o'clock. There was a scene of in- describable excitement on 'Change all day. Nothine like it was ever witnessed on tho board of trade. Men who have grown gray in the business say that the excitement ran higher than on the culmination of any of the great corners that have been attempted in the past. The climax was reached at 12:30, when Secretary Stone announcad from the gallery the failure of M. Rosenfeld & Co. July broke from around 7S¢ to Tdc in less than two minutes, and the official quotations do not mark within 2 of the limit at which many trades were made. 'T'he names of all the other clique houses were on everybody's lips. The universal hope was expressed that they had weathered the ter- Chicago National ‘The only effect will be to re- lot of mouey that has been tied up in I don’t know of any banks that have not insisted us\un a v('r" Wide margin on wheat loans.

Ob, we are comfortable.” The Effect in Milwaukes, MILWAUKEE, June 14,—The sudden drop in wheat at all the great wheat centers caused intense excitement on 'Change to-day. Three failures more were anuounced to-dgg—Frank Wilson, Louis Wilde and C. W. Fleitzheim & Co., the latter being the Milwaukee branch of C. J. Kershaw & Co., of Chicago. Hooker, Crittenden & Co. closed out all the trades.

Shortly before noon Il, Flertzheim 0 compelled to announce their suspension, ‘They were buying for Kershaw & Co., of Chicazo, and were disappointed in not re- celving the remittances expected from Ker- shaw, and being also pressed by other houses, to whom they were indebted, yielded to the pressure. Their suspension dragged down Looker, Crittenden & Co. and Frank Wil- son, each of whow, it Is understood, called for margins, failing to get which they were also compelled to give up. HIll Flertzhelm & Co. claim the money needed by them will be forthcoming to- morrow" in which event Hooker, Crittenden & Co. and Frank Wilson will also resume. John Wilde, a broker, announced his in- ability to meet margins this afternoon. It is believed that other touses will find them- selves in deep water to-morrow. Much money has been lost here in small amounts that in the aggregate represent a large sum. ‘The bear element is the stronzest on the local board, but that crowd is not feeling vurY Jjubilant, having been whipsawed in the deul.” The bull crowd had exacted differ- ences all along the line of advance. and now that the time has come to make up the differ- ences the other way is unableto meet them, so that the peculiar spectacle is presented here of both bulls and bears being ‘singed at the same time. Frank Wilson received a dis- patch to-night, stating that Kershaw & Co. would meet their oblizations to-morrow. The Cincinnati Clique, CINCINNATI, June 14,—The very general impression that Cincinnati furnished a large part of the clique which has been charged with managing the Chicago wheat deal' turned attention in this direction to-da when the panic in wheat in Chicago devei- oped. Very strangely the Cincinnatl mem- bers of the clique vanish from all attempts to 1 ocate them. J. W. Wilshire, who has been publicly named as one of the mysterious members, flatly declared when asked for information as to the cause of the trouble that he knew nothing about it. Others who were suspected of being in the deal were equally reserved. One of the leading men of the supposed clique sald he did not believe the Cincinnati men were in atall; that it was made up of operators in California and Cleveland. Whatever the truth may be, there is no sign of any suffer- ing here, 1 could to help him to get the property, but in San Francisco there is a lawyer named P, J.

My nephew is a little puny fellow and London’ weather will eat him up,” St A Bensati0 Suit, PRrOVIDENCE, June —[Special Tele- gram to the BeEe.|—A suitatlaw between Henry Gardiner,a young man under age,and Henry J. Steere, one of the wealthy and philanthropic business men of this city, for 5,000 damages for am alleged assault, terminated in the most sensational manner yesterday. The case was to come to trial in the supreme court, but Gardiner's counsel was absent and said tobe ill. Young Gar- diner voluntariig stated to the court that the case was one of blacknail,and that his coun- sel, Thomas F. Cosgrove, was privy to it. Steere huving shown fight, and they having no evidence to go to court on, Cosgrove had advised Gardiner to run away, but he had declined. as that would throw the whole blame upon himself and absolve the lawyer from blame., Gardiner said it was expected that Steere would settle thecase out of court and that Le and the lawyers were to have share and share allke. The case was continned to Saturday to give Cosgrove a chauce to explain his connection with it. Coxgrove is a young Irish-American of good family and hitherto of zood reputation. He claims he was led to believe that his client had a good case, and he denies all of rdi- ner's charges of unprofessional comduct. Mr. Steere is a millionaire several times over. is vur[y liberal with his money and stands high in various benevolent and religious so- cletles. Gardiner is a _nephew of the super- intendent of the New York,Boston & Provi- dence railroad. stood while the stampede was in progress. The first item in the list of sensa- tional events that crowded fast and thick upon each other through the day was the an- nouncement that 1,035 cars of wheat had ar- rived vesterdayand that 600 were expected to-day. Then came storiesZof a meeting of the clique brokers and the Cincinnati princi- pals. This was followed by the announce- ment by Rosenfeld that it was the purpose of the clique to let the market down as low as the crowd would sellit, *in order to get in on lower range of values,” Still there were few who really thought this meant an abandon- ment of the deal, but wiser or luckier ones acted upon the theory that it was the begin- ning of the end. The panic may be said to have commenced with the tap of the bell, June broke sharply from 92'{c to 86}4c, but reacted sharply to 91c, then settled back to sde, and for a while the price bobbed spasmodic- ally between &cand %0c, with afeeble at- tempt being made by the cligue brokers to vrotect the market. The soul had departed from the deal, however, and nothing but the empty shell remained tv confront the crowd. WhileJune was going through this exper- ience, July was being subjected to an ordeal scarcely less trying. From 88%{c at the open- ing, the warket declined to 80fge. A rebound carried it upward to 82c. From 9:50 to 11:30 a. m.,the excitement was Inteuse. but it was nothing compared to what occurred immediately thereaftter. It was as though a cyclone had struck the pit, and the market fairly bofled. The wheat pit was filled with a crush of steaming, sereaming men, There was no haggling over tractions or cents. Everybody who had lu)‘llllmf to sell sold it for what they could fiul., and buy- Ing. orders were executed like lightning. Margins were devoured and swept out of sight In the twinkling of an eye. It was uvur{ tellow for himselt and the devil take the liindermost. Up in the oftices the clerks were making out margin calls, and uimble- footed messeugers were racing from door to door with demands for cash. Never in the history of the board of trade has there been such an extraordinary call for margins as was witnessed to-day. The bull houses were literally overwhelmed and no attempt was made to keep up with the procession. June wheat sold down to T3}¢c, and trades 3;@lc below the oflicial record were reported. * July broke to 74c, and August sold off from 7% to 0c. ‘There was a decline of 2¢ in Septem- ber. The mere statement that cash wheat declined 19¢in three hours, and that July had lost 93c in the same length of time, is 8 yery tame way of expressing the facts. Nevertheless, this decline_represents an actual destruction of nearly $3,500,000 in the value of cash wheat that {s now here in store and on track. It represents the transfer of anywhere from $3,000,000 to £10,000,000 in profits on open trades in June and July tfrom bull to bear accounts on the books of “mem- bers of the board of trade. Individual for- tunes were wrecked and other fortunes reared in an hoyr. [t would probably be no uxuf\cerauun to state that the volume of business in tho wheat pit ageregated 100,- 000,000 bushels.

On the afternoon board there was for a whilea renewal of the wost oxcitinz scenes of the day. When the secretary made his way to the gallery with his gavel, it was knownat once that failures would be an- nounced. Following his rapping Secretary Stone announced the failure of Hamill & Brineund E. W. Bailey & Co, The an- nouncemenr of the lirst_ failure produced a decided sensation, as Hawmill & Brine has been a staunch house and in good repute. George C.

Kershaw & Co., and was as ollo “Gentlemen—Wehave assurances of funds to meet all calls upon us by to-m morning, and request that no trades with us be closed out, Respectfully, C.J.

New YORK, June 14.—As a result of the heavy decline at the west the local market suffered a bad break, and there was consid- erable excitement on pressure to sell. The early months were the weakest,July and June be ing down 2@23c. Later deliveries show a loss of 14(@23e; June, 3%@45%c; July, 108 128¢e.

Option dealings reached nearly 80,000,000 bushels, the largest ever recorded. It Excited St. Louls. ST. Lours, June 14.—T'here was a good deal of excitement on ’change to-day over the great tumble of the price of wheat in Chicago, especially as the crowd have been and are still very bearisn, and have been playing the short side both here and in Chicago, As the break progressed in Chicago, very heavy of- ferings were made here, but there was also active buving by shorts. ‘The decline, thei fore, was not great, being less than 2¢, with slight recovery at the close, Most of the traders here, being bears, are credited with making profits out of the break.

Death Sure to Resnlt, 0 [Copyright 1887 by James Gordon Bennett.) PARis, June 4. —[New York Herald Cable al to the Bre.|-The attention of every thinking man in Europe to-day ‘s fo- cussed on the larynx of the crown prince of Germany. If the imperial larynx be affected with cancer death is only a question of time. ‘The shock caused by the death of the heir~ apparent would probably kill the aged kalser also. In that case the chances are that within o few mounths there would be a European war. SECOND FREDERICK THE GREAT. Prince William, the eldest son of the crown prince, is a fiery, dashing young hussar, who, besides the violent passions of the Hohenz-Ilollern yonth, has in him the mak- ing of a second Frederick the Great. Helsa thorough soldier, has his spurs yet to win, is an exponent of the views of the German military party and Is tirmly convinced of the wisdom, from a strictly military point of view, of attacking France as soon and sud- denly as possible. Thus the immediate fu- ture of Kurope depends on the imperial larynx. DI WAONER THINKS HIM DOOMED. “I am afraid he is a dead man,” sald Dr. Clinton Wagner, medical superintendent of the New York medical throat hospital, with whom 1 had just been discussing the crown prince's chance ot recovery at the Hotel Con- tinental. Dr. Wagner has for years made a specialty of throat diseases. He studied in Germany under Prof. Virchow, and was for several yoars assistant of Dr. Mackenzie in the London hospital tor throat diseases. MALIGNANT CANCEROUS GROWTH. “llave you read the reports published in London, Berlin and Paris of the disease from which the crown prince is sulfering, doctor?” I asked. “Yes,” he replied, I have, and they show that the crown prince’s malady is nothing less than cancer of the larnyx.” “Is the growth in the throat benign or malignant?” “Unquestionably malignant” was the re- ply. **What makes you think so, doctor?” “The reports state,” said Dr. Wacner, “that Dr. Mackenzie's examination of the prince’s throat on June 8 shows that the growth had increased in size since his forwer examination a fortnight earlier; also that the patient suifered from pain from difficulty in swallowing. There isalsoaswelling of the neck,pain upon pressure, and engorgement of the cervical gangleo. From the above facts 1 build my diagnosis and these are all characteristic of malignant or cancerous growth. Had the growth been benign there would have been on the other hand, a shrinkage. or a trophy,’ after a portion had been removed by the for- ceps. There would also have been an absence of pain and swelling of the glands, so I am convinced that the growth s malignant or cancerous. This cancerous growth, more- over, most invariably recurs, no matter what measures may be taken for its relief.” TRYING TO HIDE 1TS TRUE NATURE. “But Prof. Virchow pronounces it to be benign, doctor,” I remarked. *“1n some cases,” said the doctor, “'it is al- most impossible to determine the true char- acter of a laryngeal tumor by the microscope, 1t should also be remembered that the promi- nent position of the patient, and the grave political positions of the crisis, render it almost impossible for any German scientific man to give a frank, candid opinion of the case. Besides, Prof. Virchow’s silence as to that portion of the growth last removed by Dr. Mackenzie is very significant. In cases like that ot the - crown prince the portion removed by the torceps may be taken from the upper surfaco and show only benign constituents, whils the base, If it could be reached, would indi- cate the true malignancy of the growth,” ) TWO CHANCES FOR RELIEF. ““Then you don’t think the crown prince has much chance of recovery?” 1 asked. 1 think the prognosis very unfavorable " hat could be tried to give the patient a chance of life?” . “I'here are buttwo possible operations, The first—namely, the removal of the entird larynx—is preciuded by the enlargement of the clavical glands. The sacond is trackeo~ tomy, orthe opening of the larynx proper, 1f this operation were performed the growth would be entirely removed and a thorough application of the galvano cautery to the parts affected might prevent a recurrence, Tracheotomy will probably be necessary soon in any case.” *“You are personally acquainted with Dry Mackenzie?” I suggested. *{ was some years ago his assistant in his hospital,” sald Dr. Wagner, *I consider him the most skillful throat specialist in the world. ‘The patient is fortunate 10 having secured his services.” CANNOT LIVE LONG. “How long do patients with cancer of tl.e larynx generally live ?” 1, replied the doctor, “tracheotomy '8 performed, and a large convula is inserted, assuming that the patient is able to swallow nourishment freely, life may be prolonged from threc to twelve months. 1f the malady fs cancerous, s the reports show, £ think his lfe 18 & question of a few months, Either ot the above operations—the removal of the larynx or tracheotomy—would permanently destroy the voice and render the patient unfit foe public duties, No one operated on for cancer of the Iarynx has ever lived long.” MACKENZIE THINKS DIFFERENT, The Pall Mail Gazette prints an interview with Dr, Mackenzie In which the latter ad- heres to the opinion that the swelling in the throat of the Ger man crown prince Is simply a warty growth, ‘I'e dector authorizes the announcement that unless some change oc- curs the prince will be absolutely restored to good health, To Fortify the Meuse, (Copyright 1557 by Jams Gordon Bannett.] Brussprs, June 14.—|New York Herald Cable—Special o the Br ~The house of representatives, after a stormy debate in which personal and party bickerings played greater part than patriotic argument, ree jected a motion for adjournment of the fortls, lications of the Meuse valley intended fomi the protection of Relgium neutrality, an: afterwards passed the vote of fortificatiom, by 81 to 41.
