A Rumor That Krank Hatton Will Eait a New York Newspaper In the Interest of John ‘ Sherman, Can This Be True ? ‘WasmiNaroy, Oct. 8.—[Special Telegram to the Ber.1—It has been charged with a greatdeal of particularity that the president had the speeches which he delivered in In- diana printed at the Government printing office before he started on his trip. When this charge was brought to the attention of the public printer that official made a quali- fied denial, in which he stated that he had never printed anything at the zovernment printing office which had not been previously authorized by congress. To emphasize this denlal he asserted that he was careful in this respect; that he did not even set up his re- port last winter until it bad been ordered ptinted by congress, and asserted that he mnever prints anything which is not pre- viously authorized by the only body which has power to order work done in his oftice. It anything further were needed to show that the public printer had told an untruth it 1s found in this latter portion ot his statement. le printed the president’s message last winter before it had been ordered by congress, in fact before con- gress met. Then, too, he printed 200 copies of each of the president's velo messages before they were sent to congress aund they have not only never been authorized yet, but they were not charged to any appropriation, 1t I8 o romarkable fact, too, that in spite of the denials of the public printer that the president’s speeches were printed in his oflice, there are in existence in this city coples of not only those which ha has already delivered, but of those which are still te be rattled off. These are in the possession cf one ‘of the printers at the government printi ofice, who says that there is a remark similarity between these which were aimed it the heads of the people of Indianapolisand rre Haute, and that which is still to be delivered in Montgomery, Ala. It is of course possiblo that this speech will not be delivered now that so much has been said about the cyclopedia, Nevertheless, it is in existence, and it might be produced turned In grlnl at the government printine oflice if {tshould be neeaed for any good purpose. At may be interesting to compare this origi- Dal proof with the spbeech which the rhr:li lent will deliver in Montgomery after chief magistrate visits that thriving town.

German Carp, NGTON, Oct. 8.—[Special to the BeEg. |—Ten years ago there was scarcely a single speclinen of the German carp in the waters of the United States. 1n Germany, France, England, Austria and other European countries this fish has been a common article of food for years. About ten or twelve years ago P’rof. Baird, of the United States fish commission, determined to try to intro- duce the fish into this country. He invited Dr. R, Hessel, who had been connected with the German fish commission for many years. to come to this country to take charge of the United States propagating ponds and to try to introduce the different species of carp into the waters of the United Siates, From that time on the number of carp has constantly increased, until to-day they are found in nearly every state in the union. ‘I'ne United States earn ponds are located about a quarter of a mile to the southwest of the grounds surrounding the executive man- sion. They cover in all about thirty-five acres of land, and are kept in admirablé con- dition. Just at this time Dr. tlessel 1s pre- varing to make the annual shipments, and for this purpose the larger ponds have 'been drained off and the fish collected into long trenches, from which they can be readily pathered into bu s, ‘They are carried from the pond to the siipping room of the fish commission, and from there they are transported to the different sections of the country, ‘There will be sbipped during the present month some where about three hun- dred thousand of these fish to various sec- tions of the ceuntry. Maryland was the tirst state supplied, and the results were so satis- factory that Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina and other states soon sent in ap- plications for su‘iplles of the fish, Dr. Hessel is always at the ponds ready to give information to visitors, and as he is thoroughly versed in piscacuiture, his talks upon fishy subjects are always entertaining. When your correspondent called uvon him to-day the doctor was found nursing n broken wrist which he had secured while trying to jump from a car a day or two ago. e was ready to talk about bis pets, however, and proceedeéd to give the required informa~ tion. It is wrong to call these fish all German carp,” said the doctor, found 1n all parts of Furope, and are are as much French, or Ausirian, as German, Wo have three species here, namely. the leather *They are carp, which is entirely devold of scales, the mirror car| fch has a few scales resembling small mirrors upon its sides and the scale carp, which is covered all over with seales. ‘They all beloug to the same family and are all excellent food fish. ‘They are not noted for their gamey qualities and afford little sport to the angler who fishes for the pure love of the sport. But for the farmer and the workman who bait their lines for the food which will result, they are excellent tish and will repay the small outlay necessary to prepare & place for the fish, which will be sent by the tish commissioner upon application.” “How wany thousands of the fish do you distribute each year, doctor,” “*From 500,000 to 400,000 at present. Wo distribute them at four months old, and by }his l”ue they are from three Lo five inches o) pan? i Ve have b ad them welgh three younds a i t what age are they ready for the fryinz. finmngwn. Auftmu- De Wolt Brooks, of pounds and we have some in these ponds which will welgh thirty pounds.” “Have the carp glven general satisfaction in this country?” “'Generally,’yes. They are rather coarso fish, and they will feed on anything. Where they are raised in running streams orin ciean water ponds they are very nice. 1f they are turned into mud-holes they will have a rather strong flavor if eaten” directly from those mud-holes. In nearly every instance when complaints have been received that the fish were not of a gooa flavor investigation has shown that they have been raised in peet ponds. If the fish are removed from these peet ponds a fresh water bath for a dl\r or two before they are cooked all this unpleas- ant taste will disappear. Those who keep carp in peet ponds should bear this in mind.” “Upon what do you feed the fish in these onds?” “*Principally upon a paste made of four parts corn meal and one part flour. This is cooked and thrown to them every day, In the fall we feed a great many pumpkins. ‘They are verr fond of these articles and in fact they will thrive upon any kind of vege- table matter. Here are some other fish closely related to the carp family,” tontinued Dr, Hessell, taking his caller to'a pond in which were some beautiful fish abont fourteen long, and of a rich gold color, “Théy are golden Tench, or ‘Schleie, as tliey are called in Germany, and are excellent food fish, ‘Those others which look so much like them are golden ide, from the Liver Danube They look like the common gold_fish seen in aquariums, but they are of a different family entirely. You will’ notice that the common gold fish seems to delight in stiring up the mud from the bottom of the water, but the golden ide likes to have the water 'in which he swims as clear as possi and he never makes any commotion. v ich or schelie has not been very exten- sively introduced into this country as yet, but if any one wants totry to raise them they wili be supplied.” Military Matters., WAsniNGTON, Oct. 8.—|Special Telegram —Captain John 1.

WASHINGTON, Oct. |Special to the ¢E. |—On Tuesday next the colored popula- tion of Waseington will turn outen masse toa very recherche affair which anuually | i draws an enormous crowd, This affair is the yearly cake walk and this year it isto come off i the old skating rink on E street. Mr. | George Poindexter has captured the cake on several occasions. He will try hard to carry ofl the prize this year. Mr. Poindexter, who isas black as the ace of spades, is from an old Virginia tamily and delights to put F: F, V. on his cards when he calls upon the ladies ot the same shade of color as himself. Two years ago this gentleman was inveigled into a mesalliance with a young lady who occu- pled a position as nurse girl at 84 a week. Cake walking social eircles huve recently been startled to their center over the report that Mr, and Mis, Poindexter had fallen out and that they vo Jonger traveled tagether. Mr. Poindexter himself occupies an exalted posi- tion. He lsdl(l{ perched on the high seat of A beer wagon as he makes his rounds among the saloons. He was seen this evening from the direction of 1) street with a big package under his arm, Heis well known 10 the newspaper men, as he was formerly a messenger on “'the row. As he extended an invitation to your correspondent to “come down to de walk,” he explained that he had ust been down to Mr. Eisenberver's wheie o had secured legant claw Lammer eoat, only shghtly worn giound the elbows. He stated further that Le had engaged the ninest colered lady in W ashington to a'd him in capturing thaf cage, and that he did not propose o allow *‘no swell nigger to walk away from Y, ” Mr. Puindexter, however, will not have a Wwalk over this year as among the recent ac- nisitions to high toned colored soclety in | able grade of flour is obtained. | etes Anne Arundel, Maryland, has just been en- gaged at a big salary by one of the prowinent will give Mr. Poindexter a severe tussell for the prize this year and besides the two prominent sociéty leaders there are at least twenty others who propose to take that cake if uraceful walking will do it. The Fidelity's Finances. WaAsniNaroy, Oct. 8.—The comptroller of the currency has received from David Armstrong, the receiver of the Fidelity national bank of Cincinnati, full schedules of the assets at the date of the failure June 21, 1587, The schedvles place the nominal value of assets as upwards of $5,800,000, of whichmore than half are classed as worth- less or doubtful, The apparently valid claims upon the bank filed but not yet proved, are about $3,500,000, while there are amounts mn deposit aggregating £1,500,000, Subscriptions to the increase of the capital stock amount to $1,165,000, but less than half this amount was paid in money, and even if ‘what was so pald should finally be adjudged to constitute the liability of the receivership, it will be nearly all offsét by assessmenis on the original stock. The liabilities to depos- 1tors are about $300,000, of which a little over $66,000 appears to be hLeld locally. Banks and bankers appear as creditors for more than £3,000,000, but some changes may be made in these figures. On account of the doubtful value of asse dispute, it is impossible at the present time to make an estimate of what dividends may be paid ultimately. The cash on hand and the amount of assets undoubtedly good, war- raut a present dividend of 25 per cent, and the receiver has been instructed to prepare checks and schedules at once. British India’s Wheat Production. WASHINGTGN, Oct. 8,—The report of Con- sul General Bonham, at Calcutta, British India, treats at length of the wheat interests of that country during the fiscal year ending March 31, 1856, The area devoted to wheat was about twenty-seven million five hun- dred thousand acres, und the total yield 250,000,000 bushels. As compared with the wheat of the Pacitic coast Indian wheat is inferior, but when exported to Europe it is mixed and eround with wheat of superior quality, by which process a fair rank market- The method of cuitivating the soil is in the main the same as it was centuries AKO, and there seems to be great difliculty in inducing the farmers to invest in modern agricultura} tmplements, and yet, { with all the simple and vn‘lualn\! methods, Indian farmers can, in the opinion of the consul general, suceesstully compete with those of the United States in the Fmducholl of wheat by reason ot t-xlrenleli‘ cheap labor, Exports of wheat from British India ewt in 1M to Increase of 1886 about 5,000,000 cwt. have Increased from 50,00 21,000,000 cwt in 1886 and the over 1885 amounts to Furthermore, wheat-growing in'India is yet in its infancy and its. further development depends principally ugon the means ot trans- portation to the seaboard.

THE LOAN MARKET VERY FIRM. Rates of Interest Still Continue to Be Well Maintained—Hog Pack- ing in the West Progressing Favorably, In Commercial Circles. Cnicaco, Oct. 8.—|Special Telegram to the Bek.|—The demand for money continues quite active from all sources and bankers are able to place their available funds readily ana at good rates of interest. ‘I'he feeling is very firn in the loan market and the impression prevails that the money market will gradu- ally work closer within the next sixty days or when the packers seek financial assistance to take caro of hogs during the winter pack- ing season, Theclose of lake navigation, too, will no doubt enlarge the stocks of grain here, consequently more funds will be required in that branch of the produce trade. ‘Lhe demand from speculators for loans was fair and purties who were able to present un- doubted collaterals were successful i ob- taining all the favors requested. Consider- able money was forwarded to the interior, but scattered rather widely throughout the west and northwest. Lumber dealers were borrowing rather sparingly, Manufactuvers were presenting some paper for discount, but generally for small amounts on short dates, The wholesale merchants are somewbat pressing in their demands, but they are generally accommodated on the strength of their active fall trade. Collections are only fair. Country werchants are a little slow in liquidating their bills, The financial outlook on this market is not regarded as dis- couraging to active business during the bal- ance of the fall and winter, and while the money market may show a little stringency at times, bankers will be inclined to aceent less outside paper than usual and concentrate their tavors among local customers and bor- rowel Rates of interests are well main- tained at C@7 per cent on call and 6};@S per cent on time loans. Very little paper is ac- cepted under 7 per cent, On the street there is considerab m laneous and outside paper offered, which commands still higher rates of interest. In eastern financial centers considerable stringency prevalls and borrow ers are compelled to pay 6@s per cent. For- eign markets, too, exhibit considerable stead- iness, with interest rates favoring bankers, New York exchange was in moderate supply ruled Sales and better demand. The market stionger and rates were advaneed. were made between banks at 25@ discount per 81,000, and the mar steady, at 2550 cents discount, exchange was rather quiet Foreign Offerings wero the week and vrices favored ter the market was steadier an wproved slightly, Shippers’ si ccumentary bills on London ehanged Lands at $4.7 %47 and closed steady at g \ e New York stock market considerable activity during the past week, and prices for most of the leading properties ruled with. considerable irregular- ity within a small range, Iroad stocks attracted eonsideraole attention, with Read- St. Paul, Delaware, Kawanna & tern, New York & New gland and Northwestern meeting with the mosttavor, Wall street operators traded with consid®rable freedom and outside operators gave a little more attention to the market, particularly for specialiies, Foreign speculators traded moderately, On the whole, the range of irices has, with few exceptions, tavored the Imymx interest, ‘The earnings of the lead- ing rallroads are hghter than for some tine past, which is regarded as an element of weakness in view of the rather unfavorable outeome of some of the leading crops.

Speculators are not inclined to do much bus- iness during the holiday scason and re- ceivers and shippers at the same time are somewhat guarded in their operations. Howeyer, there has been fair business trans- acted in all branches of the produce trade. Deliveries on October contracts were com- paratively light, excepting of wheat, and of thut article only moderate. Foreign markets have exhibited a little more strength for most articles and seaboard murkets have shown more steadiness. ‘The firminess in freights, howe especially to foreign markets, has interfered with business to some extent.
