applause when he stepped upon the platform
He spoke hour and half,
very rapidly, and covered surprising amount OF
territory, as be was compelled to do by the com
prehensiveness of his subject Before introducing

active, but lower and somewhat irregular
under break in the grain markets and
more free offerings of leading articles for
future delivery. Receipts of hogs were
small on account of the embargo on rail-
road traffic caused by numerous washouts
and prices were higher with packers prac-
tcally out of the market. Shipping de-
mand for meats only fair.
Pork was moderately active and prices
were irregular, but the feeling was weak
and prices lower, selling off 221s@25c per
bbl. below The closing figures on change
Saturday, and closed at a decline of 2212@
25c per bbl. Offerings were quite free for
future delivery. Cash and February dull.
In lard fair business was transacted
and prices were unsettled, weak and lower,
selling off 1Y19@20c per 100 pounds, be-
low Saturdays closing, and closed at de-
cline of 121a@15c per 100 pounds. Of
ferings were quite free for future, and
there were rumors that Germany had un-
der consideration the passage of strin-
gent impost law.
Dispatches were received here to-day
stating that the German reichsfag has
passed the bill prohibiting the importa-
tion of American pork meats into that
country. It was also stated that a bill was
being prepared to prohibit the importa-
ton of American lard.
Contrary to this, it may be stated that
orders were received here to-day for the
shipments of round lots of bacon to the
principal German markets.
The proposed amendments to the rules
of the board of trade recently reported by
special committee appointed for the
purpose were submitted to vote of the
members to-day and defeated by 164 ma

Especial Telegram to the Globe

Special Telegram to the Globe
NEW YORK, Feb. 19.-The stock market
continues to decline steadily and there are
as yet no signs of any attempt on the part
of the leaders to check the downward
movement which to-day includes nearly
every property on the lists, dividend pay
ers as we'll as non-dividend. Fortunately
there has been no particular pressure to
sell, and subsequently the feeling has not
at any time been panicky. Wabash pre-
ferred broke to 46A during the morning
and Jersey Central to SO, followed later
by Canada Southern, which sold at 63A.
These were the particularly weak spots for a
time. The feeling among many of the
leading houses seems to be that the end is
not yet. The short interest continues
large and the operators on that side expect
that more active demand for money in
the near future will enable them to make
their purchases considerably below pres
ent figures in many stocks. Chicago,
Burlington & Quincy sold at 1862 during
the closing moments. 1t has per cent.
dividend coming in few days. The final
sales we're in many cases at about the low
est since the opening.

THE IRON FAILURES.

Proceedings in the A yer Failure Yesterday
The Union Iron and Steel Works Stock
holders.
say that Herbert G. Aver, the principal
owner of the stock of Brown, Bonnell &
Co., arrived here this morning early, and
several who claim to know him say they
saw him. Vice President Matthews and
Charles A. Otis, one of the directors, ar
rived from Chicago, on the train which
Aver is said to have come on. Both were
found tonight, and assert positively that
Aver has not been here and will not be.
A meeting of the directors was
held to-day, but one will be tomorrow
forenoon. Dan. P. Eels, one of the princi-
pal stockholders,is in New Orleans and not
expected back till March. Col. w. H. Har-
rison, another, arrived from Kansas this
evening and attended church festival.
Amasa Stone, another, had at his house
tonight meeting of the stockholders of
the Union Iron and Steel works of Chica-
60 to hear the statement by Mr.. Griffin,
receiver of the company, who arrived from
Chicago late yesterday afternoon. Messrs.
night with the attorneys representing
Brown, Bonnell & Co., and the Republican
company whose attachment to-day on the
Youngstown works for $35, 900 alleges that
Brown, Bonnell & Co. have fraudulently
disposed of property and are preparing to
fraudulently dispose of other property. All
the gentlemen connected with Brown,
Bonnell & Co. declare that Herbert G. Aver
is not here, and has not been here to their
knowledge. Some even say that they know
he has not been in Cleveland to-day.
YOUNGSTOWN, o., Feb. 19.-The NeaUs
Register in speaking of the Aver iron fail
ure this afternoon, says: Jas. Colwell,
cashier of the Commercial National bank
of Cleveland, came to the city Saturday
afternoon and had mortgage filed in the
recorders Office for 100000. The mort
gage is made by Browne, Bonnell to Daniel
Feds and Jno. Hay, of Cleveland, as trus-
tees, to secure the payment of hundred
bonds of $500 each. 1t is secured by Her
bert G. Aver as president and A. W. Jones
as secretary of Browne, Bonnell & Co
The signature of Mr.. Aver was offered in
New York and certified to by s. B. Goodal
BY the terms of the mortgage
it covers all the property owned by Brown,
Bonnell & Co. in this city. Mr.. Hay, who
is one of the trustees, is a son-in-law OF
Amasa Stone, of Cleveland. A further
search of the records failed to reveal any
other mortgage given by Brown, Bonnet
& Co. to any one. This indicates tha
Cleveland gentlemen of great wealth reall,
own the larger part of the stock in Brown
BonnelI & Co., and if this be true the
wheels in the mills here will countine tx
revolve.

GERMANY.

BERLIN, Feb. 19.-The liberal journal,
the Tribune, has stopped after an exist
ence of nearly twenty three years.
1t is proposed that instead of monu-
ment to Wagner, fund be collected to
maintain the Wagner theater at Bay
reuth.
The pope, in letter to the emperor, an
nounces that he has permitted the bishops,
without waiting for complete revision
of the May laws, to notify the government
OF the selection of new curates. The pope
asks, in addition to the revision, that
measures be taken to mitigate impedi-
ments to the exercise of clerical duties
and training of the clergy. This, he says,
is indispensable to the very life of the
church. If the agreement be established,
thereof real, durable peace will be easy.

Park congregational Church.

TheUongregationalists on st. Anthony
hill informally organized last Thursday
evening under the above name, and start
out with good numbers and every sign of
success. The contemplate insinuation
contained in local notice of this matter
in the Pioneer Press of last Sunday was as
unworthy of the enterprise, as it was dis
creditable to the author of it. If there are
any other reasons for this movement than
the religious necessities of that section of
the city and the remoteness of Congrega-
tional families from Plymouth church,
which prevents regular attendance, the
sooner it is stamped out the better. This
church has long been talked of for the
hill, and its start now is made because the
opportunities and necessities of the pres
ent seem everyway favorable.
