Worlds Fair Talk.

New York, 1.-The Commercial
Bulletin notes the Chicago TTibatne'S
advice to the Garden City to have
nothing to do with the worlds fair
in 1888, and says if Chicago is not
to be our legatee then the question
naturally recGrs what progress are
the committee making or have they
come to a dead halt. Complaint is
made that they do not evince a
proper disposition to take the public
into their confidence, though it is
the public they must look to for
support, or they would have had,
ere this, a series of mass meetings
to work up popular in
terest in a country like this
for imparting momentum of enter
prise of national Importance. With
out too closely criticiZIng their
policy in this particular, it need
only be said that, as it would seem
to be settled now that Central Park
cannot be had, nothing remains but
to make the best of the InwoOd site
and to that end the committee
would do well to brace up and push
ahead. If it cannot infuse enthu-
siasm into our people at home. it is
idle to expect sympathetic response
elsewhere or from the country at
large.

loss at MaJea Hill was due to

that a great proportion of our troops

they fou d themselves engaged in a

HOUSE.

Washington, 2.-The House met
in continuation of Tuesdays ses-
sion.
Tucker demanded the previous
question on the motion to concur in
Senate amendment 16 to the fund
ing bill. This is the "KirkWOod"
amendment authorizing public sub
scriptiOns for bonds and notes.
On call of the House IT'S men,
berS responded; less than a quorum.
Tucker moved to dispense with fur
Their proceedings.
Mcmahon reported back the def
cheney appropriation bill, and moved
to suspend the rules and put it upon
its passage.
Hiscock, member of the commit
tee on appropriations, criticised the
bill which was chiefly remarkable
in that which it was deficient. The
estimates for the internal revenue
bureau were 100000 in excess of
the amount appropriated in the bill
and the appropriation for public
printing was $4,000 less than
should have been allowed. The at
torney general had submitted an es-
innate of 100000 for special deputy
marshals, which had not been al
lowed by the committee. He had
thought the democratic party
would have settled its debts
before it went out of power.
A large majority of republicans re-
Trained from voting, but enough
cast their votes to make a quorum,
and when the question was ordered
there were yeas 134, nays IS. After
further delay the 10th Senate amend
ment was cOncurred in-yeaS 146,
NAYS Is. The next question was on
the 18th Senate amendment, which
is TO insert the word temporarily y
in the 4th Sc -tiOn which authorizes
the secretary of the treasury to use
) l0,UO0,0OJ in coin for the redemp-
ton of and per cent. bonds. The
committee on ways and means re-
cOmnendS concurrence with an
amendment 10 substitute for the
word temporarily" the words
from time to time, so as to make
the section read: The secretary of
the treasury is authorized to use
from time to time, not more than
S5O,OO0,0OO at any one time of stan
dard gold and silver coin in the
treasury in the redemption" etc.
The ways and means amendment
was rejected-yeas SO, nays 1z6.
The Senate amendment. 18th, was
then cOncurred it.
At 10 o'clock MacMahOn's motion
was agreed to. the rules were sus-
pended and the deficiency bill, the
last of the appropriation bills,
passed.
Consideration of the funding bill
was Immediately resumed, the ques-
ton being on the order of the pre-
viOus question on the motion to
concur in the Senate amendment.
COnger'S amendment to the 18th
section was defeated-yeas 1T, nays
132. All the Senate amendments to
the funding bill were then agreed to
without change and the bill passed.
Carlisle moved to suspend the
rules and pass the bill amending the
bill, just passed, so as to
make it conform to the amendments
recommended by the committee on
ways and means. Among the
is one providing that
in the act shall be construed
as to repeal, modify or affect sections

The Countrys Business.

New York, 2.-From the Public,
March Sd: There was no panic in
business outside of New York, last
week. The stringency did not last
long enough to spread to other
cities, and there, as here, the legi-
timitate dealings show large in
crease in the exchanges at every
city. except one. The largeness OF
the increase at Boston, Philadelphia,
Chicago, and some other cities, and
the fact that these exchanges result
from dealings at a considerably
lower range of prices than was seen
this time last year, indicate that the
expansion in quantities of the pro-
ducts exchanged has been great
1t is impossible to judge how large
a part of the exchanges at New
York, last week, were due to opera
lions in stocks, because the most
important feature here was the viO-
lent disturbance of loans of all
kinds; while the banks were calling
in loans amounting to many mil
lions every day, and money to large
amount, was borrowed daily from
private lenders. The volume OF
these transactions bore no incon-
siderable proportion to the cost of
all the stocks sold: yet it is impos-
sible to estimate to what pro-
portion the loans thus shifted
on call was due to other
operations than to securities ON the
usual basis. Some Z,937,94l shares
having been sold during the week
ending Thursday, and at an average
price certainly below S75 per share.
the amount of exchanges not due to
such transactions would be esti-
mated at sos, 2S7. 446 for the week
ending Saturday last, but it is prob
ably somewhat less because the
change of loans was nearly dispro-
portionate to the sale effected. There
is no sign of unsoundnesS in bust
ness in any part of the country.
Even in California, the volume of
is increasing without re-
vival of the unhealthy speculation
which formerly marked exchanges at
San Francisco. The remarkable in
crease in the amount of payments
is more encouraging because in
hardly any branches of merchandise
have the recent speculative dealings
been unusually large.
