THE GLOBE HOROSCOPE
AS it Cost Light upon the Chicago Ma

As 1t Cost a Light upon the Chicago Market.
CHICAGO, Nov. 10.--Cable reports on wheat
disappointed the speculators to-day. They
looked for higher cables and did not get them.
The clique is evidently satisfied with the man
ner in which the deal is running, and seem to
be adding to their line daily. Wheat closed
firm, and on the curb stood at 81. Is.
The trading in corn was small and unsatis-
factory. Gables were easier and no new feature
was developed to-day.
In provisions there was slight advance, ow.
ing to the light receipts of hogs. The trouble
at the stock yards has been settled for the
present but it looks now as if there would soon
be large advance. The market closed at
$10. so for January.

lWashington Special
For several weeks railroad and stock lob
bers about Washington have been sRitated
BY various rumors about Gen. Grant. First
it YVES asserted that he was anxious to be-
come president Of some great railroad cor
poration. Then after short time it was
announced that he was to be offered the
presidency Of the Pennsylvania Railroad
company. This was officially denied, vet
the story would not have been started With
out some basis. Now it is certain that one
railroad organization is trying to secure
Grants services and the consequent value of
MS position and reputation. The concern
which desires Grant as it's chief officer is the
Texas Pacific railway. Ex-Gov. Brown, the
vice president of this road, who has been. in
THIS u city for the last week or 80, is the au-
thor1ty tor the statement that an offer of
THE PREs1DENoY OF TH1s ROAD
was sent to Grant last Saturday, and is now
awaiting his disposal. It is proposed upon
the part of the management to have the SAL
ary Of the Office fixed at $4,000 per annum,
IN order to make the acceptance an object.
Before agreeing upon this course, it was an
nounced by certain friends of the road that
it would ask no further subsidies from Con-
gress. This statement was made when il
was believed that any further effort would
be useless; but since it has occurred to the
management that the services of Gen.
Grant may be obtained, the hope of SUBJ
sidy has again been revived. The officers of
the road have thought that it would not be
improbable that the good Republicans in
Congress could be persuaded by Grant to
vote for subsidy, while they are certain of
the votes of the Southern Bourbons, and by
the aid of these two elements subsidy
might possibly be obtained. A gentleman
familiar with railroad interests centering
at the capital says the whole affair is mere
ly tock-jobbing operation. The stock of
the Texas Pacific was long ago dropped out
OF the regular quotations. Occasional sales
are noted at two cents, but it has been long
classed as valueless stock. TO secure
Grant as the president of the road would
naturally ensure credit and capital to the
company that no other man could secure.
Quite number of the lobbyists at Washing
ton, who have worked hard for the Texas
Pacific. subsidy ARE loaded up with this stock,
and they have been very vigorous in repre-
senting to the present Texas Pacific manage
ment that Grant would be the best card that
could be played. Whether the ex-P Presidant,
even for fat salary, would be anxious to
act as decoy duck for subsidies and the
like remains to be seen. When Grant reaches
Washington he need not be troubled for lack
OF employment. All of the bands organized
for raids upon the treasury will freely, ,strug-
gle to secure his services as captain.

Paris letter to Philadelphia Telegraph
The most remarkable man in Paris at the
present moment is M. Phillipart, whose
name and doings are on every mans tongue.
My travelling companion compared him to
Baron Grant, but Baron Grant, in his most
palmy days, never conceived schemes half SO
colossal as this man. A few months ago
Phillipart was bankrupt. Now he has paid
every creditor in full, and is worth nobody
knows how many millions. He must have
some money, for it took 100000 francs to
pay his debts. Some time ago this financier
came to grief over gigantic scheme for the
amalgamation of the French and Belgian
railways. Now the state has adopted the
whole or some portion of his plans, and
bought Phillipart's interest in the project.
He promptly seized the opportunity to pay
his creditors in full, and bring out the aBank
European" and is at this moment the most
talked-of man in France
I am told that Phillipart regards the
,''Credit Mobiller'' as responsible for his late
bankruptcy, owing to the opposition which
that powerful corporation originally made to
his railway amalgamation scheme. He is
accordingly at daggers drawn with that
financial body, and only awaits his oppor-
tunity to avenge sshimself upon them. The
"Credit Mobiller'' placed the "Old Tele-
graph mining property upon the French
market. The owner of the property, which
is situated in Bingham canyon, Utah, is
man named Helden, and the concern, which
was originally offered for 100000, has been
sold to the French investors for about $780,
600. All the particulars of the shady trans
action are not yet divulged, but the affair
may, and probably will, be made the lever
to bring discredit upon the "Credit Mo-
biller."
Phillipart is being haunted by needy and
greedy crowd of spectators of every ma.
ton under the sun, who are focking to him
with all sorts of more or less wild projects,
for him to take up. An American friend
who believe has his own pet Schemes
railway to the moon, or some equally feasi-
bic undertaking Offered to introduce me to
this wonderful financial prince. We went
together to the Avenue de POpera, where the
magnificent Offices of the "Bank European
are situated; but Phillipart was just escaping
from crowd of would be interviewers, and
hasty greeting in the vestibule, and about
two minutes conversation, were the only re-
suit of our visit.
he is remarkable looking man, about
ffty-four years of age, and stands over six
feet high, and is evidently man of great
force of character and tremendous nervous
energy. What little saw of him impressed
me greatly. He has wonderful powers of Or
ganiZation, and understands the temper and
idiosynoracies of the French investing pub
lie like book. A man who knows him we'll
told me: "Baron Grant can't hold candle
to him; he is more than man; he is phe-
nomenon."
