DECISION AFFIRMED.

CHICAGO, April 14.-The San Francisco
Chronicles Washington special says: Sec
retary Kirkwood has affirmed the decision
of the Commissioner of the General Land
Office in the intervenor mining case, pend
ing before the Interior Department for
some time. The case grew out of the re-
moval of the land office from Florence to
Tucson, Arizona. Twelve days intervened
with no office in existence. The decision
holds that that time shall not run against
the party in filing an adverse claim for ap-
plication for mineral patent in the period
allowed by law, when registered, and the
Receiver is allowed entry without giving
additional time to advertise for claimants.
He holds that entry is suspended to await
the issue of suits in the Court, based upon
adverse claims filed within the additional
time allowed.

THE STEWART STOPPAGE.

CHICAGO, April 15.-The San Francisco
Chronicles New York special says of the
retirement of Stewart s. Co. An old man
who had been in the employ of Stewart
since before the war and who is still in the
employ of the firm said: In Stewards
time about one thousand men were employ
ed in the down town store, three thousand
up town and in mills and all. over ten
thousand. Now l don't believe there are
three thousand all told. The business has
decreased steadily since Stewards death.
The old clock stopped never to go again
sure enough when Stewart died. The re-
duction in the working force before there
was any decrease, and when business fell
eff men fell off all the faster. The big
black eye that the house got however was
in the Hebrew business. q remember, in
old days, the Seligmon brothers almost
every day dropped in as they were on their
way by home from down town and Mr..
Stewart always received them most cor
daily. They were among mis- most
intimate business friends. In an open
letter at the time the Jews were excluded
from the Saratoga hotel, the Seligmons
made prophecy giving Judge Hilton five
years to dry up the business. The five
years will not be up for two months yet.
The Hebrew trade, which had been large
in Stewards time, dropped almost instantly
and has never been resumed.
CERTAINLY CLOSED.
The Chicago San Francisco ChOr0nicEcs s
New York special says it is announced that
the well known firm Of A. T. Stewart &
Co. have determined to discontinue their
dry goods and manufacturing business and
they offer for sale their entire stock of
merchandise and all their mill properties
The announcement will cause general sur
prise in the merchantile world, although it
has been known for some time that the
sales of the firm were not so large as when
Mr. Stewart was at the head of the house
which he founded. Very soon after Mr..
Stewart transferred to ex-Judge
Hilton her entire interest in the
business of her husbands firm, and at the
same time partnership was formed be-
tween Hilton and William Libby to carry
on the business under the name of A. T.
Stewart s. Co. Judge Hilton paid a mil
lion dollars and diverse other considera-
tions for Mrs Stewards interest. The first
sign of contracting the business of the new
firm was when the wholesale store at Broad
way and Chambers streets was given up
The advertisement of the firm, which an
nounces the closing out of business, is as
follows:
IA. T. Stewart s. Go having determined
to discontinue their dry goods and manu-
featuring business, offer their stock of mer
chandise and mill properties for sale at at
tractive prices"
STEWART CLOSED.
CHICAGO, April, 15.-The manager of A.
T. Stewards establishment here. said to an
Associated Press reporter this morning
that all he knew of the New York firms
determination to wind up its affairs was
that he had received an advertisement with
instructions to insert in newspapers of this

REPUBLICAN CAUCUS.

The caucus, of the republican represent
atives held in half of House o-night lasted
from until 1880 o'clock The attend
ance was not very large, but the proceed
ings were animated. A number of speech
es were made on various subjects, among
which was the Commission bill, the con-
tested election cases and the manner of
proceeding with the business session.
Strict injunctiens of secrecy prevails among
the members, but enough has been made
known to warrant the statement that res
olutions were adopted providing for
prompt action on all important matters
pending. 1t was ascertained that the bill will
be acted on Monday. The majority will have
all its members present, with perhaps one
or two exceptions. The resolutions re-
ferred to favor eleven o'clock for the hour
of meeting hereafter, and provide that
night sessions be held whenever practica
BILE; that The tariff commission bill shall be
passed as soon as the debate thereon is
concluded, and the election cases pushed
forward and disposed of as rapidly as pos
sible. The sentiment of the caucus was
in favor of holding as long daily sessions
as possible, the remainder of the present
Congressional term, with view to trans
acting as much business as possible. 1t
was also decided that the present rules are
broad enough in their scope to allow the
majority to proceed in the manner indicat-

The Steel Horse.

Persons who ride or drive above Fifty
ninth street cannot fail to note that
within year there has been sudden
and marked increase in the number Of
bioycles on the road, and residents on
any well.paved road in the same part OF
the city can testify that "the steel
horse, as the bicycle has come to be
called in England, is often on the road
as early in the morning as horses less
tough Of fiber. The popularity which
bicycling has suddenly reached in New
York is as gratifying to many who never
bestrode the Cver-saddled courser as to
the most earnest deyOtees OF the new
sport, for anything that will offer the
young men of our city n new lnducement
to spend part OF their time at vigorous
exercise out of doors is ofgeneral benefit
to the community. The steel horse has
its limitations. not by these, but by its
possibilities. il should be judged. 1t is
shapely, swift and safe. ltnever throws
its rider, although the rider sometimes
throws the horse. 1t never stumbles,
balks, bucks or kicks; never takes the
bit in its teeth and attempts to run
away it has not the vice so dear to all
other horses, OF casting a shoe at exactly
the wrong time, and it can make its best
time and distance without being blown
or running the risk OF laundering. 1t
can be turned loose anywhere immedi-
ately after use. Nospecial stalls nor any
disagreeable and expensive retinue OF
stable-boys are necessary to its safe
keeping, and the owner is never likely
to be greeted in the morning with the
information that his cousser has died
during the night. Such an array of
special merits should be enough to COM
mend anything to the favorable notice
of spirited young men. Even men who
ore not young could make their days
cheerier and gain apromise of additional
days in which to be CHEEKY, by making
frequent use Of the steel horse.-Ne,c
