BRADLEY-MARTIN'S BALL. Rev. Dr. Rainsford Thinks the Proposed Ostentatious Extravagance a Mock- ery of the Poor. NEW YORK, N. Y., Jan. 23.—The Rev. Rainsiord of St. George’s Church se- cured a more co ete social recognition vester y because of a declaration that be had warned his parishioners from attend- ng Mrs. Bradley-Martin’s bal masque on ince Feb { he took up his residence in New York As to the wisdom or folly of his ice, however, there is a marked differ- f The attitude assumed \ters of such social entertain- ary 10 than oad come to him City the one which Mrs. contempiates as were was indicative of com- ration. The interest in this forthcoming ball is based upon the impression which prevaiis thatin point of lavish expense and su- ress of appointments it is likely to the famous ball given in 1883 by Mrs. K. Vanderbilt, now Mrs. O. H. P. Bel- mont, at the house at_Fifty-second street and Fifth avenue. That ball was the talkk of the country for some time and of ociety for even alonger time yet, and 1t has not been equaléd by any- )ing of its kind sinc Mrs. Bradley-Martin’s ball is to be held at the Waidort. The ball will be in the large ballroom, while practically all of the second floor of the hotel will be given over to the s of the evening. Dr. Rainsford does rot denounce the ball as a form of entertainment, and says | that he does not want anybody to think | there is anything personal in h1s protests. | He simply thinks, he s, that such atious dispiay of wealth, which can seem reckless extravagance to the great mass of people, is injudicious at a | time when, as he says, the iines between we rich and poor are so tightly drawn. Je has spoken to members of his congre- ation who are_among the invited guests of the Bradley-Martin’s about the matter nd, it is said, induced a number of them to remain = When 1he derbilt ball was an- nounced fourteen years ago the minister | condemned the expenditure of a great | sum of money for foily ana pleasure. { Then followed a storm of criticism. Th Mrs. Vanderbilt, who gave b h was described as the most iresque affair that had New York, prepared a ifving the cost of the ball, w aled about $250,000, and this was inted at the time.

CHICAGO, IrL, Jan. 23.—A proposed arrangement between the advisory com- | mittee of the Western Immigration Clear- ing-house and the Atlantic steamship companies, providiLg for a division of ic and the payment of commissions, W asidered 1o-day ata meeting of the advisory committee withont any definite action being taken. Mr. Pratt, the Euro- pean agent of the western railroads in inis class of business, snbmitted a report of his experience and views. The compa- nies are anxious to withdraw their Euro- pean agents for economical reasons. The prospects are fair for the adoption of the agreement. Otherwise in the face of the Southern Pacific’s competition the clear- ing-house may not Lave to di<solve, The compact proposed is an offensive and de- fensive one, providing that the steamship companies shall turn over to the clearing- housa all the business when it reaches t e seaboard, the Atlantic lines to have sole | control of the immigrant business until it reaches this side. If th ement is adopted the Southern Pac wili have to | join the clearing-house or fight for every passenger. ——— Fievos Dlizzard in Michigan. BENTON HARBOR, MicH., Jan. 23.—A fierce bliz; 1 is raging to-night from the northwest. A heavy sea is running on the lake, but no vesseis arg out so far asis known here.

Indignant Ccmments of the Press May Lead to Parliamentary Inquiry. Gladstone and Mo-ley Confer on Ire. land’s Financial R:lations With Great Britain. | LONDON, E~c., Jan. 23.—It is an- nounced that the attempt by the crown authorities to convict Edward J. Ivory, alias Edward Bell, of conspiracy to cause dynamite explosions, which completely collapsed on Wednesday, entailed an ex- pense upon the treasury of £20,000. Of this sum £5000 was devoted to the ex- penses of the Scotland Yard authorities in making researches in Holland, Belgium and France, with a view to obiaining evi- dence against Ivory and his al.eged co-conspirators—Tynan, Hainesand Kear- ney—and the sum of £2500 was spent in making a similar investigation in the United States. The remainder was spent in the prosecution of the defendant in the 0id Bailey court and in defraying ex- penses incidental thereto. In the case of the defense, Ivory says it cost £3000 to carry it to the point whers the Government was compelled to admit that they bad no cause of action against him. The cost of the farcical trial having be- come known, the newspapers are indulg- ing in indignant comments, and it is prob- able that there will be a Parliamentary inquiry into the niatter in an endeavor to learn who is responsible for the prosecu- tion of a case at so much expense, which he Solicitor-General was finally compelled to admit shouid never bave been brought to trial. Mr. Gladstone, in the course of the con- ference which the ex-Premier recently held with Jobn Morley, Liberal member of Parliament for the Montrose district and formerly Chief Secretary for Ireland, urged the uniting of the Liberal party in Parliament with the Irish National Par- liamentary party in defense of the latter's recommendations for the appointment of a royal commission to consider the finan- | cial relations of Irelund with Great | Britain in respect of the proposition of | revenue which Ireland contributes to the | national treasury. Itis probable thatan | effort will be made to bring about such a coalition. It is announced that the Duke of York will pay a visit to Ireland some time in May and {hat Prince Aibert of Flanders, nephew of King Leopold and beir to the Belgian throne, will make a tour of the | United States. Prince and Princess Albert Radziwill of Russia, the latter of whom was formerly Miss Prudencia Milmo of Mexico, sailed from Southampton to-day on board tke American line steamer St. Faul. The announcement is made that Eia | Russell, the American singer, has signed | acontract to appear as Elsa in “Lohen- grin” stthe New Y. rk Metropolitan Opera- house with the Damrosch company before the present opera season closes. She has also arranged to sing under the manage- | ment of Mr. Wolfsohn with several lead- ing oratorio societies in the United States in March and April.

The doods are the same as they always were, the choicest that minds and money can produce, but the lines are small ; larde enoudh for you, but too small for us to put in our regular stock. So we sweep ‘em owt. We will sweep ’em out again Men- day. The luxury of detting our finest clothes at sweep-’em-out prices is not an every day occurrence, for but twice a year do we do sweeping, but when we do it yow remember it.

Abuses by Agents of the Commercial Company Reported. NEW YORK, N. Y., Jan —A Herald special from Washington says: The re- port of com plaints of members of the Rus- sian Orthodox Church in Alaska on ac- | count of alleged outrages by agents of the | commercial company will not likely lead to any diplomatic negotiations between the United States and Russia. tussian Minister Koetzebue said yester- | day ihat the persons aileged to | maitreated are not Russian cit citizens of the United ates, though | members of the Russian churches. Naval | officers who returned several months ago from Alaskan waters, and who are now in this city, say that it is possible that some | of the squaws in Alaska were responsible | for the disturbances, but they were in- | clined to doubt that agents of the com- mercial company had attackad persons of Russian birth. CHARGED ens, but | WITH FORGERY, How the Cashier Kan the Sioux City Savings Bank. SIOUX CITY. Iowa, Jan. 23.—Warrants for the arrest of Cashier E. P. Stone of the defunct Sivux City Savings Bank were sued to-day. The depositors counted on $20,000 of cattle paper in the bank vaults as among the best assets. An investiga- tion failed to discover either the cattie or the makers of the notes, and the deposit- ors feared that Stone had forged tnem. Reports that be had fled increased the ez- citement, and tc-aay his arrest was re- solved upon by the depositors. He is charged with forgery, making false re- ports to the State Auditor and withdraw- ing the bank's money for his own use and giving in return worthless securities. i 2 g Bogu's Land Agent Arrvested in Butte.
