BUSINESS TROUBLES.

Heavy Failures RecOrded--A Large In
crease ia Murder During the Week.
Heavy Liabilities and Moderate Assets. =
CLEVELAND, March 2.-F. A. Bales, pres
ident and owner of two-thirds of the stock
of the Cleveland Furnace company, has
returned from Steubenville and denies the
report of the failure. He says six weeks
ago the creditors gave six, nine and twelve
months extension, since which time the
situation has been unchanged. The lease
of the Steubenville works is not given up,
but the fires have been banked for three
weeks waiting the outcome of the present
condition of trade. He says that If the
market does not improve soon, however,
he will wind up the company's affairs. If
it improves the works viii be put in oper-
alton in fortyeight hours.
CHICAGO, March Jason d. Stone, coal
dealer, to-day confessed Judgment in the

SHENANDOAH, Pa, March 2.-The failure

Liabilities heavy.
dealers in hides and leather, have assigned.
No preference. The firm refuse to make
any statement.
The real liabilities of the firm are said
to be between 100000 and $4,000. 1t is
believed that the assets will cover the
amount. The firm did business of over
$1,OOO,OOO. Their credit was excellent.
The failure is largely attributed to difficult

ner with 100000 invested. About $4,000
of the liabilities consist of notes of the
firm held by banks in this city and
Boston.
New YORK, March 2.-The assignment of
Wiley, Wicks & Wing shows preferences of
$97 900. Edward A. Condit, of Orange,
N. j., has been arrested on the charge of
swindling stock brokers. His method was
to order stock, giving worthless checks to
cover margin. If speculation was fortu-
nate he collected the profits and took up
the checks. If unsuccessful the broker
lost.
MONTREAL, March 2.-St Marie and
Thibault failed; liabilities, 100000; will
probably pay thirty cents on dollar.
DEXTER, Mo-, March 2.-The directors of
the Dexter woolen mills decided to entirely
suspend operations. The corporation
owns three large mills here and employs.
when in full operation about $50 hands.
The principal reason is the high price of
wool.

Boston, March 2.-The executive coun-
Gil confirmed the appointment of An
drew j. Hall, as prison commissioner, in
place of DR.. ..Ohadbourne, deceased. Final
action was deferred on the nomina ton of
n. A. Plympton, insurance commissioner.
Governor Butler is said to be somewhat
surprised at the opposition of the council
lors to Plympton developed since his visit
to Washington. Two arguments are raised
against him: First-He has not the nee
essary business qualifications; second, he
ought to be rejected on account of his con-
nection with the management of the
Democratic party. On the other
hand, Plympton is said to be strongly
indorsed by the leading insurance com
panies and number of influential Repub
lican politicians. The nomination has
provoked struggle in the council, and it
is understood the session was lively, and

THE CONGRESSIONAL RECORD ARRAIGNED.
The Ereaing Star says: Does the Con-
greSsiona1 Record record? If not, what is
the use of printing it under the pretense
that it is the official transcript Of the pro-
ceedings of congress? There is not a
word in to-day's issue of that publication
to show that there occurred in the house
of representatives last night that which no
one can fail to pronounce disgraceful in
the extreme. Such was the unpleasant
truth, yet to read the official pro-
ceedings printed in the Record one would
suppose that all the members had behaved
with the utmost dignity and decorum. It's
reports of the senate proceedings are no
better. A few days ago two members of
that body exchanged opinions the reverse
of complimentary, but their remarks.
although uttered in loud and threatening
tone, failed apparently to reach the ears of
the official reporters, as their report gave
not the slightest sign of what occurred. If
it were not for the daily papers, the coun-
try would get but an imperfect, and indeed
false idea of what actually occurs in con-
gress.
The Republican members of the senate
held a caucus this morning and selected
Mr.. Edmunds as candidate for president
pro tenn. to succeed Davis. No opposi-
ton.
PROSPECTS THOUGHT TO BE FAVORABLE.
There is great diversity of opinion as to
the probable fate of the tax and tariff con-
ference report in the house of representa-
tives, to which body it will be submitted
tomorrow morning. But the prevalent
expectation among well informed observ-
ers is in favor of its adoption. A promi-
nent Democratic member from New York
said tonight that many of his party asso-
ciates will vote for the bill regardless of
objections to some OF its provisions, by
reason OF their belief that it would be
unwise to defeat a measure the enactment
Of which, IS they understand twill reduce
taxation bT an amount apDroximating to
S70,000,0O0 per annum. IL is also said that
the Pennsylvania Democratic representa-
tives, led by ex-Speaker Randall, will favor
the bill. On the other hand il is said that
five New York Republicans will join fac
tion of the Pennsylvania delegation in OPP
posing the bill conference
held at a late hour tonight
in the speakers room develops
a strong opposition to tie conference COM
mittee's action concerning duties on wool
and hoop iron, and emphasized the fact
that neither Sherman nor Mckinley signed
the report. Indiana also brings some re-
enforcement to this opposition, but on the
whole, as above intimated, the balance of
probabilities appear to incline towards the
ultimate agreement by the house with to-
nights action of the senate.

The Five Cent Fare nm Vetoed

ALBANY, March 2.-The governor re-
turned to the assembly the bill reducing
the rate of fare on the New York elevated
railroads with message giving his rea-
sons therefor. In his message the gov
ernor says the stocks and bonds are held
by large number of citizens, and their
income depends largely upon the fares.
The reduction proposed is a large one,
and 1t is claimed will permit no dividends
to investors. 1t is manifestly important
that invested capital be protected, and its
usefulness in the development of enter
prises valuable to the people be recog-
nized by conservative conduct on the part
of the state government. He is not salts
fed that reasons exist to reduce the fare on
elevated railroads, and says it is conceded
no examination has been made to that
end.

STRIKE AND RIOT NEAR ST. LOUIS.
ST. LOUIS, March Part of a gang
of laborers engaged in loading iron ore on
barges at an ore dump at Sulphur Springs,
twenty-five miles below this city, made a
demand yesterday for increase of wages
and announced that they would not work
until their demand was acceded to, nor al
low anybody else to work
at the old rates. To-day
another gang of men was organized
/ and went to work, whereupon some half a
dozen ringleaders among the strikers made
an assault upon them with clubs, knives
and pistols, and drove them from the
! barges. In the melee several men were
| badly beaten, but nobody was seriously
! hurt. Warrants were sworn out by M. j.
Farley, boss of the gang, for the arrest of
the ringleaders, and constable is here 10
night looking for them. The
sheriff of The county will be at
the dump tomorrow, prepared
to preserve peace, and indications now are
that the assailants of to-day will be ar
rested, and the work of loading the barges
will proceed without further trouble. The
barges being loaded belong to Gray's iron
line of Pittsburg. The dump is at point
on the Iron Mountain road, where ore Is
brought from Pilot Knob and Iron Noun
tain, and transhipped on barges for

lows; Az Beatty, Jack Beatty, Hay

Hasley and Robert Stevens came into
McDade yesterday morning. Az and
Jack Beatty went to Milton's store,
Milton being engaged at his desk
writing, and Bishop sitting in
chair on the gallery. Mil
toms desk is at the rear end
of the store. Jack Beatty went up to
Milton and began conversation in
reference to what had been rumored
IN regard TO his brothers. connection
with the murder of Deputy-Sherii
Lexington three weeks since in Me-
Dade. II appears that Az Beatty,
VINO was not on good terms with
Bishop, made the attack upon Bish-
op, and succeeded in forcing Bishop
or the gallery, Bishop falling upon
the ground, both grasping q pistol in
the scuille. Beatty was on top
and Bishop under; the pistol
was, fired and Az Beatty fell back
dead. In the meantime, Jack Beatty,
nearing the report of the pistol, rushed
