Money was fairly abundant and call loans were renewed at 8, Currency is said to be flowing in with tolera- ble freedom from the country, and, best of all, London started the market with some strength, which set prices generally on a higher level than at yesterday's close, After a gradual decline, better prices again ob- tained. Western paper coming due is being paid off, and the demand fromn the country for accommodation is exceedingly light. Helped the Market, Stocks opened strong, and yesterday's purchasers, in many instances, took profits. After thy market sold down a little. There was some talk about gold imports and that helped the market. There was some foreign buying of General-Electric. It closed yes- terday at 62 5. opened today at 04 i, und declined to 63 18, Vanderbilt stocks were in motion but have apparently overcome the effeets of the attack of the last two days. New York Central, which closed yesterday 3¢, sold up to 10037 and back to 100, where it scttled. Foreign bankers said this morning that no fmportations of gold had been ordered ; that figures offered in London are well enough. but holders gave no cucouragement to would- be buyers. Still several houses were watch- g exchange quotations closely, and when the market justities it. importations may be looked for.

There was a break in_Colorado Iron of 10 per cent, from 30 to 20, was due toa report that the I decTare a dividend on preferred stock in scrip instead of cash. This was due to the fact that collections were slow and to the uncer- tainty regarding the silver situation. C. P. Huntington says: “1 have just tele- graphed San Fraueisco and the regular divi- dend will be declared on the capital stock of the Central Pacific from the office of the company within a few hours, The company bas more than earned the dividend and it will bo promptly paid.” More Hapeful Foelings. This afternoon the hopeful feeling among the kers became even more pronounced. Frederick D, Tappen, president of the Gallatin National bank, said that one of the most necessary things was the resumption of the former relations between the sub- treasury and the Cleariug House., No Clear- ing House certificates were issued today andl none retired. Mr. Tappen said money would be easy right along und within a weck or ten days there would be a superabundance of currency, particularly notes of small de- nominations. Some of the banks would robably be asking that their Clearing AP, might be paid in loan cer- tificates rather than currevcy. It was possible there might be wmore joan certifi- cates issued to some small banks, but if the present conditions continue the certificates ‘will be steadily reduced and by the cnd of three months possibly all will be canceled. Some amusement was caused by the alleged utterance of some Chica t c reported in the morning papers, reflect the New York banik: A prominent bank president of this city expressed the opinion of many bank presidents on the subject ‘when he s That is merely some wind off lake Michigan. It would be much more to the purpose if the Chicago banks paid their debts to the New York banks and talked afterward. There are very few banks in Chicago that did not borrow every dollar they could from the New York banks during the recent stringency, and they could not have continued business if we had not sup- plied them with currency on these loans.” Surprised wt the Donver Manifesto. Another western utterance that caused somo amusement among bank oflicers here was the reference in the Denver resolutions, to New York banks. ° those stat national president, o extended ov possible decommodation to Colorado bank: especially to the banks of Denver, and there: fore I can hardly believe that the best pe: ple of that city endorse the sentiments con- tained in the resolutions.” ank CLOSED 1TS DOORS, Nebraskna Savings Bank of Lincoln In the unds of the State Board.

FRIDAY MORNING, JULY 14, 1893, — SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS, TEN VOTES THE BEST OF IT Narrow Majority by Which the German Gov- ernment Was Saved in the Reichstag. CAPRIVI SEES THE FIGHT BEFORE HIM First Clanse of the Army Bill Adopted by u Vote So Close s to e Detent Almost Hsmarck Caused & Sensation. [Copyrishted 1893 by James Gordon Rennstt]. Benuiy, July 18.—[New York Herald Cable—Special to Tire Bee.]—At five minutes to 8 this afternoon the electric bells ringing all over the house announced to the members of the Keichstag the time had come when the first vote would be taken since the dis- solution on the military bill. As the clerk called out the names and the members answered yes or no, it was soon_evident the division would be close. Caprivi, his hands clasped together in front of him, a favorite attitude, upright, motionless, earnest- looking, sat listening to overy vote. Ahl- wardt and Liebermann, the famous socialists, absented themselves. When Bismarck’s turn came he gave a sort of uawilling aye. All eyes were watching him and voluntarily a hundred tongues repeated “aye" in the tone inwhich he smd . At twenty minutes past 8 Caprivi hastily dispatched a tele- gram to the kaiser, saying the first clause of the bill had carried by eleven votes, 180 10 178, One member who would have voted against the bill arrived too late. Thus, after the desperate efforts made by the government, in despite of concessions made and the treachery of the Poles, the government has only managed to scrape to- gether a majority of ten in a house of 397 members, The government has a majority, but it has suffered moral defeat. The result was received 1n dead silence. WILLIAM WINS. Doubts of the Passage of the German Army 1L Are Now Set Aside. BERLIN, July 13.—The first clause of the sed today by eleven ma- iis is considered to amount to the ssage of the whole bill, Count von Hompesch, clerical, made the first speech against the army bill. He made an elaborate defense of the clerical party’s attitude toward the measure. The clerical party, he id, had never been a confes- sional or church party, although it had un- dertaken, as its noblest duty, the protection of Roman Catholicism in Germany. This, however, had not been its sole duty. The clericals had striven to maintain the federal character of civil liberties and to further the moral and material interest of the classes. These have been the party’'s ideals. The charge has been made that the party had swung to the left, had abandoned many of its conservative traditions and had driven from its ranks those who declined to accept its new tendencies. All these charges were unfounded; in fact the party was still in the best sense conservative; its desire was still to fortity pop ilar obedience to the authority of church and state. Chancellor von Caprivi -replied that he was highly pleased with Count von Hom- esch's definition of attitude of the clericals, ut, before modifying his previnus opmmion of them, he must await their action toward the authorities of the central government and the states. Meuntime their policy was bindiug them to the aemocrats. They were always hostiie to the government, Dr. Licber, clerical leader, said the chan- cellor might call the clericals democrats 1f he pleased but the fact was that in Bavaria and Wurtemburg they were true royalists, although opposed to the excessive develop- ment of the imperwl idea. The clerical party felt the necessity of opposing the ormy bill because convinced that lth)cupl e were unable to bear the contemplated increase of military burdens, Chancellor von Caprivi remarked that Dr. Lieber's assurances as to the royalistic senti- ments of the cl als in Bavaria weve very gratifying and it was to be hoped that in the future Dr eber would remain faithful to his declaration on this point. The chancel- lor also referred again briefly to the swing to the left caused Dr. Lieber in his party. Count von Moltke, free co nscrvative, saii that the present biil alonecould secure for Germany an honorable peaoe after the next European war, Dr. Lieber rose before the debate closed to protest against the chancellor's last insinua- tion that he'was a democrat. Nobody, said Dr. Lieber, had ever had any reason to doubt his loyalty to the King. In the vote that followed the members declared themselves thus: For the bill, 18 Poles, 13 radical-unionists, 10 anti-Semites, 52 national liberals, free conservatves, 68 conservatives, 2 tlericals und 8 indevendents ; total, 198. Against the bill, 98 clericals, 43 social democrats, 8 Alsatians, 13 Richter- radicals, 12 south German democrats, 4 Guelphs and 0 independents; total, 187, Prince Henry Zu Carolath-Schoenach moved that two years service be fixed legally The chancellor stated that the government had no intention to return to a three years service system unless expericnce showed that a permanent retention of the two years system was impracticable. The debate then proceeded. A vote on the question will be taken tomorrow, The government's supplementary credit bill was referred to the credit committee, IN ENGLAND'S PARLIAMENT, Questions of Financial Pollcy—Progress of the Home Rule Bill, Loxnox, July 13.—In the House of Com- mons Sir John Lubbock (liberal unionist) asked whether the government haa settled upon the rate at which the rupee would be received for gold, Mr. Gladstone said that he knew nothing of the matter beyond what he had already announced. Sir Jobhn then gave notice that he would question the government as to whether gold would be given for rupees av the same rate as rupees for gold. Mr. Thomas) Sexton (ant-iParnellite), member for North Kerry, asked Mr, Glad- stone to grant a day for the discussion of the motion, declariug that chairman Mellor in suspending Mr. Sexton Tuesday night had exceeaed his authority, Mr. Gladstone replied that hedoubted the possibility of promising a aay for the discussion of the motion. Mr. Sexton thereupon intimated that he would take the first chance that presented itself to obtain the judgment of the house on the conduct of Mr. Mellor, |/ ¢ Home Kule Taken Up. The house then went into committee of the whole for the further discussion of clause 9 of the howme rule bill. The debate was marked by an attack on Mr. Gladstone by a member of his own party. Mr. Robert Wallace, liberal, member from Edinburg, was oppased to the withdrawal of the “iu and out" subsection of clause 9, the announcement of which was made by Mr. Gladstone yesterday, and he spoke at length against the course of the prime minister. Heury Laboucnere, the well known radt- cal, suid thut he advocated the total exclu- sion of the Irish from the lmperial Parliu- meut, but, he added, he would take no course that would teud to wreck the bill. Mr. Joseph Chamberlain, the liberal- unionist leader, charged Mr. Gladstone with deceiving the country und with breaking his publicly expressed pledge against the re- tention of the power of the Irish mewbers w‘ discuss all affairs of poliey and vote thercon, Between 0 and 10 o'¢look the galleries were crowded with persons enger to watch the work of the government in forcing through the remaining Subsslanses of clause 9. At 10 o'clock Chafrman Mellor applied the closure to the debate 0f an amenament, pro- posing the omission of the “in and out” pro- position, which forbids Irish membors of the Fperia] Parliament to Yote on ccrtain ques- tions. The closure Was earried by a vote of 5 to 208, amid loud opposition cheers. Clause § Adopted, Clause 9, which provides for the repre- sentation in Parliament of Irish counties boroughs, was thel adopted by a vote of W07, rman Melloe proceeded to put the question on clause 10, the first of the final clauses, the ('unu‘r\‘nl.‘:el.nl’(rr checring de- left tho House In a body. government propesal thut the consid- eration of clause 10 be postponed then passcd by a vote af 558 10 49, T'he votes on financial elauses 11-17 and 20- 21 were postponed by almost equally heavy majorities.
