THE OMAHA DAy BEE -SEVENTEENTH YEAR. OMAHA, MONDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 24, 1887 NUMBER 126} THE WEEK WALL STREET. A Season of Improvement and a Much Better Tone. Ney Yonk, Oct. 23,~[Special Telegram to the Ber.]—The week, was one of jmprove- ment on the stock market and there wasa much better tone to speculation than fora long time past. Large amounts of Lake Shore and Reading were called in, which sent borrowing rates up to 1§ per cent per diem for the former and 1-64 per cent for the latter. Some other stocks lent at 1.64 1o 1-16 per cert and all this started a stampede among the bears to cover, with the result of large deal- ings and great excitement. An upward movement in prices set in that gained force as the week wore along and a marked en. hancement in values took place. At the high- est point Manhattan and Oregon Navigation showed an advance of 84 points, Richmond Terminal preferred 7, Burlington & Quincy 63, Western Union, Union Pacitic, New Eng- land, Jersey Central, Missouri Pacific and Rock Island 5 to 5} and & number of other prominent shares 2!¢@43¢ per cent. Some of the old bull leaders took courage from the change of situation and bought stocks frecly, at the same time making it very warm for the bears, who had had things pretty much their own way for a long while. There were some favorable circum- stances at work, including the agreement of the trunk lines to advance export rates, the harmonious results of the conference between the Northern Pacific and Union Pacific and Oregon Transcontinental, easier money, in- creased railroad cunl:r and a bullish inter- view given by Mr. Gould, with attendant rise in his stocks aceompanying the large cover- ing of shorts, and the nd for stocks fell and loaning rates eased up materially. The effect of easier money ahd in con- fidence was plainly felt in railroad bonds, which, after a rather weak opening, gradu- ally gained strength, and recorded an im- provement in the number of issues. The de- mand for this class of securities, which became very slack while the downward move- ment in the share list was in progress some time since, is now steadily grow- ing and where bonds only @& few weeks ago were difficult of sale at declining prices, they are now taken more freely on an advancing scale. Prefer- ence is given to issues selling around par, which pay interest regularly and also to the HIS REASoN ls DETHROA ED' SOUTHERN S()fll‘\ DISTURBED.

Robert Garrett's Vagarics, Seceding Knights. Cn1caco, Oct. 23.—The dissenters from the action of the Minneapolis convention havede- clared open war with the executive board of the Knights of Labor, and have issued their declaration of independence, On veturning from the convention about thirty-five dele- gates, representing thirteen states, stopped in Chicago and determined to bring about a reorganization of the order. They elected a provisional committee of five members, of which Charles F. Seib was made secretary. A long communication was drafted at Secre- tary Seib's office to-day, and will be for- warded to-morrow in circular form to Knights of Labor all over the country. The circular starts out as follows: 'To the Rank and File of the Order of the Knights of Labor: Indignant at the usurpa- tion of power, the gross violation of the I of the order by those high in authority, di gusted with those whose loyalty to the pres- ent ring has been gained by the pickings they received as a ard for their services, in- censed at the frowning sycophants who crawl on their knees in slavish submission to the most corrupt, most hypocritical, most auto- cratic and tyrannical clique that has ever A Bacreligious Mob, Loxpox, Oct. 23.—Several thousand of the unemployed with @ red flag at their head marched in procession this afternoon from Trafalgar gguare to Westminster abbey, and although no” invitation had been extended, 1,200 of the crowd were admitted inside the abbey. Many of the unexpected visitors re- mained covered aud indulged in whistling, while others mounted the pedestals of various statues or mingled with the decent people present. Most of the latter left the building. The crowd as a rule chewed tobacco and ex- pectorated everywhere regardless of the sur- roundings until the first lesson was an- nounced, when the reader was loudly cheered, completely drowning his voice. The second lesson was similarly received. Canon Prothero then preached a sermon. In his discourse he argued that punishment of law- breakers was necessary for the good of the community. This was received with cries of “Oh1” and “bosh,” The preacher earncstly appealed for order and exhorted his hearers to try to uproot evil and plant good instead. “That's what we are going to do,” was shouted and received with cries: “Hear! Hear!” and cheers. Canon Prothero now threw his notes aside and addressed himself directly to the roughs. He said: ‘‘Legislation can alone provide a remedy for hunger and sufferings, but c\'ev]ybody can express sympathy.” [Loud laughter, followed by a voice, *“That's all we shall get.”] Canon Prothero continued: haritable agencies might do tuch.” [A voice, ‘‘We don't want charity; we want work”’] The and Cooper families, which gave to the United States one of its ablest presidents as well as one of its most popular novelists. — “You are all friends of Jay Gould and_you \LLL SN R are glad that I have been sold out to him."” Munificent Endowments By a Ma: “Why, Mr. Garrett,” said one of the chusetts Millionaire. tlemen, “we are not friends of Mr. Gould's, ‘WonrcesTer, Mass., Oct. 23.—[Special Tel- we are your fricnds, and we were not talking | egram to the Bee.]—The corner stone of the | controlled any labor organization, we there- about tho sl of the telograph. or anyuling | Principal building of Clark wniversity was | £05s uym the motto of our order, that pertaining to you or your affairs.” aid yesterday afternoon with appropriate | cueh g 2a%AE Soimbie tho k0ol taus asso- “Yes, you were,” he replied excitedly, “I | ceremonics.

There wus a fair inquiry from remitters late in the week, which checked the drooping tendency of rates before they had got back to the gold- importing point. During the week about £3,500,000 in gold arrived §rom Europo, which nearly completes the shipments of the precious metal made previous to the recent rise in exchange here. the British Home Rule union. The mecting was proclaimed by the goverument, and when Sir Wilfred Blunt mounted the plat- form to speak the magistrate forbade him to hold the meeting. Blunt defied them, where- upon the police threw him from the platform. Blunt returned to the platform and was again thrown off. Then, pale and breathless, he shouted: ‘*Are you such d—d cowards that you dare not arrest me?” The district inspector replied: I arrest you,” whereupon Blunt was scized and marched off under escort, his wife following. The police then charged upon the crowd I - THE CLEARANCE RECORD. — Monetary Transagidons in the Country the Pajit Week, and driven in disgrace from tho movement; ’ ke oo , and injured many persons.

With much gay revelry at Jildiz Kiosque the sultan has been entertaining two delight- ful Japanese chrysanthemums, Prince and Princess Komatsu. At the close of a grand banquet the padisha rose and, beaming upon his Japanesc guests, snid: ‘There is & kinship between our two countries symbolized on their respective en- signs by the crescentand the rising sun, The origin of the two races is found in the same quarter of Asia. The Japanese and the Turks both arrived at national existence by the path of conquest. The ‘Daimers’ of the Japanese correspond exactly with the ‘Derebys’ of the Turks. The Hatamotoes were a perfect type of the Saudjah beys, both holding land upon the same tenure of mili- tary service,” This is the first time the sultan was ever known to make an after- dinner speech, At the same banquet given to the Japanese prince, s Charles Lady Dilke was present. The padishah, who has a keen appreciation for the weakness of human nature and the frailities of the flesh, has shown a most marked attention to Sir Cha Dilke and seems to have been keenly sensitive to Sir Charles Dilke's fascinating manners. Ho saw in him solely the statesman who but a short time ago wielded such power in the councils of England’s foreign policy. Imet Sir Charles Dilke as he left the sultan’s ban- quet.

W[Copyright 1857 by James Gordon Bennett.] Loxpoy, Oct. 22.—[New York Horald cable— Special to Tue Bee.]—To-day's Bull- ionist thus hails another namesake, although no relative, of the New York Herald. The first number of the Society Herald, a new weekly paper, has just appeared. and it is certainly gotten up in a manner which re- flects great credit on all concerned in it. It purports to be a record of social, political, theatrical, literary and financial events, and the execution of this assumed task in the number before us fully justifies the expecta- tions which we had been led to form. The paper is carefully edited and well practiced pens contribute column after column of read- able and interesting matter. The Herald consists of sixteen puges without the inter- mixture of advertisements. These are printed cn colored wrappers and occupy eight pages more. The Herald is very cheap fora penny, and it is as good us it is cheap e Mgr. Persico Interviewed. Roue, Oct. 22.—The Observatore Romano publishes an interview with Father Gualdi, who accompanied Mgr. Persico on his special papal mission to Ireland. Father Gualdi says all the addresses presented to Persico in Ircland express fidelity and boundless confi- fidence in the holy see. In that country the agitation is based not only upon the memory of ancient wrongs of England inflicted upon her, but also upon serious present necessities which require at- tention. Father Gualdi states that there is every ground for hope that means will be found to settle the differonce between land lords and tenants, especially as the Irish are very far from desiving a scparation from England. Catholics and Protestants alike confide in this hope. Negotiations ded. Panis, Oct. 23.—The negotiations for con- ventions regarding the New Hebrides islands und Suez canal have been concluded. The conventions will be signed to-morrow. The Suez canal convention provides that the canal be kept open in time of war; that no act of hostility be permitted at the ap- proaches or on the banks. The New Heb- vides confirms the agreement of 1878 und 1883, GREAT K STORM. Many Vessgls Thought to Have Been Lost in Saturday's Gale. Big Storms Sweeping the Lakes. Detrorr, Oct. 23.—A furious gale, accom- companicd by snow and rain, has been raging on the lakes since this morning and it is feared that the loss to shipping will be heavy. News from Cheboygan says that a northwest gale, accompanied by & blinding snowstorm, has been sweeping over Lake Huron and the straits since daylight. Theground is covered with snow and if the storm continucs until morning the snow will beseveral inches deep. It is feared that shipping in transit, on uc- count of the blinding snow, will suffer disas- ter. It is the worst storm of the season. MILWAUKEE, Oct. The gale that pre- vailed Saturday night is said by vessel mas- ters to have been the worst of the season. 1t continues to-night, with flurries of snow. The wind blows forty-five miics an hour, and many sls ~ have sought the shelter of the harbor. The schooner Maine struck her to-day and is a total loss. The crew was saved. A dispatch from Marquette says the schooners Sherman and Brandish went_ashore near there last night and were pounded to pieces. The crew of the She man are safe, and although the crew of the Brandish has not yet turned up, it is thought they are in the woods Jesting at the Expense of Jester. WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.—[Special to the Bee.]—The president has only one of his old time Buffalo supporters at the white house, or in any capacity near him, This is Captain Jester, who was brought from Al- bany soon after the inauguration, and was as- signed to a place as messenger in the execu- tive mansion. Captain Jester is a tall man of about forty, who is very quiet and scdate, and who always scems to carry a weight of responsibility on his shoulders. He hasa war record, too, and it is a good one. He was only fifteen years of age when he entered the army, and he fought bravely with the regi- ment of New York cavalry to which he was attached. But the l'll{l!uill -seldom talks of his experiences as a soldier. His friends tell tales about him occasionally, however, Here is a rather good story which one of them told to-day. It has a some- what chestnutty flavor, but Jester admits that he was the very man. At a fight near City Point Jester's company was doing in- fantry service, when one of his comrades was wounded, “O, Jester,’ said the poor_fellow, “Iam wounded in the leg and can't walk: Carry me to the rear.” "Jestor picked the fellow up, who weighed 180 pounds, and threw bim over his shoulder. He had walked about half way to the hospital, when he met another comrade. Iy the meantime a cannon ball had cut off the® wounded man's head. The third party said: *'Where are you taking that man{” “[ am taking him to the hos- pital,” said Jester. “Why, you fool, the doc tor can do him no good, he ain’t got no hea said the speaker. Jester was very tired. He lifted the body from his shoulder, and thro ing it violently to the ground, exclaimed: “(iol darn his picture, he told me that he was shot in the fool.”” This is the reason why Jester will never give a cent to a beggar who s that he has lost his arm or his leg while in‘a fight near the scene of the capwmin’s fruitiess labors, e An Austria-Italian Conference. Rowme, Oct. 22.—The first conference for the purpose of negotiating a new commercial treaty between Italy and Austria-Hungary was held to-day.

The Commercial and Artistio Attrace tions of Beatrice. ONE OF NEBRASKA'S PRIDES, The Third City's Boom—Sad Accidea at Palmyra-—From Bridal Veil te Shroud--Nebraska Scenes of Woe. Beautiful, Booming Beatrice, Beatrice, Neb., Oct. 33.—[Correspondence of the Beg.]—No one who has traveled over the state extensively during the past summer will be disposed to deny that Nebraska has had the greatest year in her material growth since her first settlement. Leaving quite out of the question the phenomenal growth of its metropolis on the banks of the Missouri, the rapid increase in the population of cities, sucl a8 Lincoln, Beatrice, Hastings, Grand Island, Kearney, Fremont and Columbus, are ev dence sufticient of the substantial prose perity of the commonwealth from which they draw their sustenance and to which they yield rich returns in the condensed products of the soil through their mills and fac tories, The columns of an enterprising press have been filled during the scason with gratifying reports of the progress of several of our growing inlund cities, but full justice hus not been done to the most beaatiful and the most conservatively prosperous of the larger come munitics outside of Omuha and Lincoln, Without blow of ne per trumpets or the existence of boom editions, special log sales, railroad excursions and glow- ingly alluring statistics, Beatrice has been steadily advancing and pushing forward its claim as the livelicst, safest and most suby stantial, as well as the most beautiful city of 10,000 inhabitants in the commonwealth of Nebraska. Surpassing in its charm of locas tion at the junction of the Blue und Indian creeks, with its broad, shaded residence streets, handsome homes und ""'"“i:z lawns and encircled by a vistaof rolling far lands in the richest county of the state, it adds to these attractions greater advantages s a manufacturing center thau perhaps any other city in Nebraska through its magnitie cent water power, alrcady furnishing cnergy to thriving industrics and employment to seve eral hundred mechanics and operators. While other cities are boasting of their natural sus periority as the location for future factories, Heatrice has alr secured them. Othed towns have spent lirge sums for the cons struction of canals to tap ri and to furd nish bonuses for indust locations. ~ Aty Beatrice the never-failing water power of the Blue, in the very heart of the city limits, hag been'a standing offer to capital for remunery ative investment which it has not bw? to avail itself of, whilst the presence of reat trunk lines of railroad has afe ompetitive rates neighboring und forcign markets and_of rapid transit for the product of furms to fa tories and factories to farms, | Since the opening of spring, the city h seen the most gratifying advance in ali thal goes to make up substantiul metropolity growth. A complete system of grades fo stre and sewer districts has been estal lished, & new and elegant iron bridge is neare ing completion across the river which bisect the city, the problem of & pure and ampl water supply has been met by the construch tion and extension of what is perhaps the most complete system in the stute, and the street car tracks have been pushed until they now circle the city in a line which brings transportation within easy reach of every in. habitant. Gas and electric lights, water m;d sewerage and street railways, cstablish grades and paving near at hand form tl solid foundations "of metropolitan improve ments upon which Beatrice is building. The most interesting fact is that the adyance ha been made and 18 steadily progressing withs outany of the facitious methods of town lots booming, parti-colored posters or brasse band-munufactured enthusiasm, Although winter is approuching the builds ing activity shows no signs of decrease. For six months past an idle mason or carpenter in Beatrice hus been a curiosity. In the busje ness part of the city a large number of hands some brick blocks have been erected, notabl, on Courts, Fifth and Sixth streets, witl every store room engaged for occupancy weeks before their completion.

It is safe to say that the amoun§ of money expended in buildings before the scason closes will far exceed that spent iny any year of its history.
