ENGLISH MARKETS.
A Better Inquiry With Slight Advance
in Prices.

LONDON, May 2S.-The Mark Lane Express,
in its review of the grain trade for the past
week, says: Seasonable rains, higher tempera-
ture and the absence of night frosts, have
benefited vegetation, but copious rain fall is
still needed. Without il the outlook is I'M
certain and unfavorable. The English grain
crop does not stand well for the harvest.
Trade continues very quiet. There is better
inquiry for red wheat and values are steady.
Foreign has shown signs of improvement.
Buyers stocks are diminished and smaller sup
plies have strengthened sellers, who thus obtain
ed fractional advance for American red winter
grades. The weeks supply was very moderate,
more than half American. The floating bnlk
continues large and includes ,250,000 quarters
of American and296, 900 quarters from various
other countries. Flour was laborious of sale
against foreign competition, and rates were
unremuneratIve. Foreign was in small sup
ply. There was a nominal trade at unchanged
rates. The same report is applicable to for
eign. Oats were in fair demand. Light sam
pies were cheaper for foreign. The tendency
was downward for the heaviest. Maize con
tinues dropping. Sales of English wheat dur
ing the week were 23,502 quarters at AIS I'd
per quarter, against 26,6T quarters at Ais sd
per quarter for the corresponding week last

Neither Conkling nor Garfield will con-
exercise over their respective factions
and trust to luck to regain them some
time in the future. 1t will be foolish in
Garfield to do so, for he holds the win
ming cards in his own hands. 1t will be
foolish in Conkling to do so, for he has
hazarded all upon the game, and can only
hope to recover it by continuing his bluff.
There are too many difficulties in the
way of reorganization of the Republi-
can party. There are too many men in it
who want to be bosses, and who will re-
fuse to play second fiddle to those with
whom they have so recently been at
swords point. The only way by which
the party can be reorganized is by its
disruption, and this event is apparently
near at hand. If Conkling and Plat are
returned to the Senate from New York,
or if any oftheir friends secure the places,
the administration of President Garfield
will not have an easy lot, for everything
possible to be done will be done to make
their lot an unhappy one. Conkling may
succeed in securing the election of one of
his puppets, if he does not secure his own
election, and he will pull the strings. He
will be Senator de facto, though not de
jure, and will lead Mr.. Garfield and his
friends lively dance. 1t may be as I'M
comfortable for Mr.. Conkling as for Mr..
Garfield. Indeed, neither of them will
occupy an enviable position. The result
will be the disruption not the reorganiza-
ton of the Republican party, for oil and
water will not commingle This will
give an opportunity for those Republi-
cans who sincerely desire to reform in the
civil service to ally themselves with the
only party that can bring it about with
out being amenable to party discipline
| for their acts.
The recent developments in the conduct
of the Republican party has led many
thousands of honest citizens to look for
means by which they can sever their con-
nection with it. 1t has been proved that
at the last Presidential election Indiana
was carried for Garfield by the use of
money stolen outright from the public
treasury, and that many dishonest prac-
tees have been in vogue. All good citi-
zens reprobate such acts, and will be glad
of a chance to shake the dust of the par
ty from off their feet at the earliest posi-
bic date. The disruption that is already
in progress as the result of the Garfield
| Conkling dispute will afford them that
opportunity, and before the next Presi-
dental election rolls around it will be
found that the Democrats are in almost
undisputed possession of the field. The
result will be the choice of a Presiden,
who will be at liberty and be bound tc
administer the affairs of the government
in accordance with the laws and the con.
5titution.

THERE is some tribulation over the fact
that no president pro TEN. of
the Senate was elected prior to the ad-
journment, and it is gravely related that
if President Garfield and Vice President
Arthur should die before the assembling
of Congress in December the country
would be left without an official head
This reminds one of the tears of the old
maid who said if she should get marie d
and have a child and that child should
crawl into the oven and be- roasted to
death she would feel Oh so bad.

THE DISRUPTION o TFHE REPUBLI-
CAN PAR z

THE DISRUPTION o THE REPURLI-
CAN PAR Z.
As is usually the case when the Repub-
lican party is distracted by internal dis
cussions, and has apparently destroyed
its last chance of again renewing its lease
OF power, cry has arisen in favor of the
reorganization of all the parties as a
means of securing better administration
of our federal affairs. The GLOBE has no
objections whatever to the reorganization
of the Republican party. 1t might be re-
organized every week or two with advan-
tage, for it needs it badly-has needed it
for years. But it does object to any inter
ference with the present condition of the
Democratic party. 1t was never stronger
than it is to-day-never possessed more
completely the confidence of the people
than it does to-day. 1t is united in favor
OF policy of government that has been
shown to be calculated TO increase the
power of the government abroad and its
prosperity at home. 1t is emphaticallv
the party of the people and is to-day
strong and united 1t does not need re-
organization, no matter how much the
Republicans may desire to see it reorgan-
lied.
But how is the Republican party to be
recreated? Where will the work begin?
1t is evident that in order to effect auy
reorganization it will be necessary for all
the factions to surrender their own theo-
ries-to throw them into a common caul-
dron, warm them over, stir them up, and
accept the product as compromise.
True, the compound would be sort of
witches broth, but thiScannot be helped,
as it is the only way by which compro-
mise can he reached
There will be one trouble about a reor-
ganization of the Republican party.

who has been trafficking in fac-similes of
the desk upon which Jefferson wrote the
declaration Of notwithstanding the

citing the proceeds. He has been guilty
of other peculating, the total amounting
to a considerable sum. 1t is evident that
he is not the only person guilty of like

To the Editor of the World:
SIR: Will you please state in your paper if
the State of Minnesota has within the last
twelve years repudiated any part of her State
debt Oblige an old reader of your valuable
papr. b.
New York, May 20.
In 1859 the State of Minnesota, now
represented in the treasury by Secretary
Window, repudiated its bonds issued for
railway purposes to the amount of several
millions, and in 1860, by constitutional
amendment passed by its usual Republic
can majority, forbade its legislatures to
pay or its courts to consider the justice of
paving these bonds. On the Sd of March
Gov. PIllsbury signed bill providing
for the payment of fifty cents on the
dollar of the repudiated debt-the bond
holders having suggested that settlement
and at last accounts Minnesota was con-
Guiding such settlement, which, as stated
by the st. Paul Pioneer Press of March Sd,
would save Minnesota from the payment
of millions of dollars lawfully due her
creditors in the way of principal and
interest.

APRoPos of Grants letter i'll which Gar
field is censured for appointing Robert
son as collector OF New York against the
wishes of the Senators from that State. it
is recalled that Grant, while in the execu-
tive chair nominated William A. Sim
mons as collector of the port of Boston at
the instance of Gen. Butler, without con-
sultlng the Massachusetts Senators. Both
Senators from that State protested ear
nestly against the appointment and in
sisted upon its withdrawal, but the Pres
ident was firm IN refusing. Conkling
voted TO confirm Simmons despite the
protests of the Massachusetts, Senators.
Grant should not be so oblivious of his
own conduct when passing censure upon
others.
