National Board of Trade yesterday at Balti-
mere, after our report closed the committee sp-
pointed TO report resolutions on the financial
condition OF the country subm tied a series of
resolutions protesting against further issues of
irredeemable paper; demanding the retirement
OF the forty -four million reserve; the retrench-
ment of national expenditures, and an amend
ment of the national banking Law. The vexed

Yesterday morning Washington awakened TO
the fact that silently durisg the night the
"beautiful snow" had been falling, and the city
was covered with a mantle of white. This pro-
duced a feeling OF dismay among those who
have 60 carriages at their disposal, when they
remembered that Wednesday was Cabinet re-
ceptiOn day. Nevertheless, neither the snow
the wind, nor any other obstacle prevented there
being crowd in the parlors of all the ladies

The adornments of the house reflect credit upon
the good taste and judgment OF Mrs. Williams
who personally superintended the building and
furnishing May she enjoy many happy days
within its walls Although far removed from
the social center, neither distance, cold, nor
snow prevented q crowd from calling at the
house of the Secretary of War. Mrs Belknap
was the personifcation of elegance In q train OF
blue silk, with overdress and waist of muslin
and rare Valencienne lace. The beautiful
Madame de PotIstad assisted Mrs. Belknap,
while not far off stood three beautiful girls, In
elegant silk reception dresses. These were Miss
Susie Lee, Miss Sally Frelinghuysen, and Miss
Ella Ray.
Mrs. Blaine and Miss Dodge shared the
compliments of the many hundreds who were

A COMPLICATION BETWEEN THE FRENCH
AND SPANIsa REPUBLICs.-The government
troops on entering Cartagena shot eight insur.
gents who we're trying to escape. The 0ccupa-
non OF the townw was otherwise bloodess. The
members Of the junta surrendered the from
clau NumaDcia to the French authorities at

them Barcia, a prominent leader, were taken
prisoners on board the captured steamer. Suez,

arrived at Mer- Sell Kebir and demanded the
surrender of the Numancia. The French au-

undamaged.

fatal stabbing ARRAY occurred last night be-
Owing TO the reticence OF the other occupants
OF the house, very little can be learned Of the
cause OF the ARRAY. 1t appears that the quar-

Porter, both living at the above humber, It 4
said that the women at FIRST engaged in a regu-
lar night, when the latter, finding that she was
getting the worst of it. seized a large table
INJECTING serious wound. The injured woman
was taken to the 18th precinct station no use
and subsequently removed to Bellevue hospital
In dying condition. The police failed to nud
any clue to the hiding place OF Eliza Porter,
but they expect to succeed in arresting her To-
