Bismarck will visit the Emperor Will
liam during the latter's stay at Gastein,
and that if the Emperor Francis joseph
goes to Gastein, Count Kalnoky, Austrian

lister, may also visit Gastein during the

New York, May 24.-The early dealings
we're characterized by considerable firm
ness, though after few ups and downs the
market became exceedingly dull, quite q
contrast from yesterday. Louisville &
Nashville relapsed from 40 to 48, which
was the most important change for the
day. The Northern Paciics were firm, the
preferred selling above 81, and the COM
mon at 504. The ceremonies attendant
upon the opening of the big bridge caused
many operators to forsake the exchange,
and curtai!ed business. The earnings of
the st. Paul road for the third week of
May increased $4,000. Hannibal & st.
10 for the same time increased $1,000.
There was but little change in prices DUR
ing the closing hour. The market was ex-
ceedingly quiet and without feature. The
majority of stocks are a trifis lower than
on last evening.
1t was stated on very good authority
that there had lately been excellent buy
ing of Central Pacific by a strong inside
interest. Mr.. Stanford is said to have &C.

couple of weeks. Boxers having good
California connections say that the excel
lent crop prospects in the state make Cen
tral Paciica very safe gamble at the cur
rent price. Foreign houses bought some
long stocks. An impression prevails, how
ever, that the rally will not hold, and some
traders have been free sellers of short
stock this afternoon. The northwestern
roads show a large increase in earnings
for the third week in May. This has
caused some buying Of st. Paul and North
western. Comparisons between st. Paul
and Northwestern business for the first
four months of the year show that st.
Paul has done relatively better than North
western. st. Paul has earned practically
as much on its common stock this year as
it earned last, while Northwestern earn
ings on common stock have fallen con-
sidorabIy short Of its earning last year.

THE STAR ROUTE TRIAL,

Ingerson Continues His Address for the

WASHINGTON, May 24.-In the star route

tending to show conspiracy. He claimed
that the transactions referred to were per-
fectly honest and in accordance with the
habit of men engaged in the mail business.
A man, said Ingersoll, who could make
conspiracy out of these things could dc
anything. He could make cover for
Barnum's circns out of postage stamp.
Ingerson read from Bliss opening
speech 'but we shall show to you that al
least one United States senator, urging

PENDANTS" Where was that evidence? he
asked.
Bliss-I said 1 would do it if you would
put him on the stand.
Ingersoll, sarcastically-I we would
furnish the evidence. How could I know
the senator?
Bliss-Was there more than one?
Ingersoll-I say there was not one.

your duty as United States attorney tc

When the verdict was given he wanted ev.

On the rock of truth; that it was not taint-

be Bliss was right in sneering and making
insinuations against everything good and
pure, but his belief was that
justice sits eternal king, holding
in his hands scales to weigh the acts OF
every man. He tried to make the world
better and happier for his fellow creatures.
He did not sneer at Justice and mercy

RUSSIA.

Moscow, May 24.-The proclamation an
nouncing the coronation was made this
morning by heralds at arms, attended by
several dignitaries, from circular plat
form before the Kremlin, which was used in
ancient times for the promUlgation of
ukases, and also for executions. Foreign
ambassadors who had been formally ap-
prised of the time the proclamation would
be issued, were present, attended by a
large escort. After the bugle blasts from
the heralds, the secretary of the senate read
the proclamation, as follows:
Our most august, high and puissant
sovereign, the Emperor Alexander, having
assembled the hereditary throne Of the en-
pire of all the Ru5sias, the Kingdom of
Poland and the grand duchy of Finland,
which are inseparable from it, has deign-

sors and their glorious ancestors, to COM
mand that the holy selemnity of coronation
and anointment in which the empires
will participate, shall with the help of Al
mighty God be performed on the 27th of
May. The solemn act is announced to all
his majesty's faithful subjects in order
that on the joyful day their most fervent

mighty to send grace and blessings upon
his majesty's reign for the maintenance of

of his holy name, and constant prosperity
of the empire.
The emperor and empress only break
their seclusion until Sunday to receive the
visits of foreign princes. 1t has been de-
cided not to hold great diplomatic re-
ception, but as the emperor and empress
intimated their willingness to attend one
reception, General, Schwirnitz German

CHICAGO, May 24.-Gen. U. S. Grant is
stopping in town to-day, on his way to
Galena. The general is showing the signs
of age, both in walk ana looks. His hair
and beard, which he wears as closely
clipped as ever, are marked with broad
streaks of gray, and he walks with falter-
ing step. He was dressed in neat suit of
black, while large and new silk hat gave
a jaunty look to his otherwise sombre ap-
pearance. The typical cigar was in his
mouth when he was accCsted.

twisting his cigar little toward the corner
of his mouth; Il can't tell you anything

business. I an simply here on my way to
Galena, and am stopping here purely for
private reasons"

Mistakes in Newspapers.

The Poughkeepsie Eagle, in an arti-
Gle on How Mistakes Happen in
Newspapers" figures up the number
of type used in a newspaper the size
of the Eagle at GOO, 900; that is the
actual number OF bits of metal ar
ranged for each newspaper in prepar-
ing paper of that size for the press.
We suppose few people think of the
printing trade rs one of the most ex-
act aud particular handicrafts, but Il
Is. In making type, variations that
might be allowed III the finest mahin-
cry would render type useless It Is
very rarely that the type furnished by
two different foundries can be used
together without great deal OF
trouble, even though they should try
TO make it after the standard. We
read once in a while of a wonderful
piece of cabinet or mosaic work con-
tanning twenty or fifty thousand lieces,
the maker of which has spent months
or even years of labor in producing
it, and the people go to see IT "a a
curiosity; but the most elaborate and
carefully-ftted piece of work OF this
kind ever made does not compare, for
minuteness of detail and accuracy Of
fitting, with that which the printer
does every day. The man who does
the first is looked upon as marvel OF
skill, and If hundred of is pieces
are put in wrong side up or turned
around, it is not noticed in the gen
eral effect; bat if the printer. in 6t-
ting ten times as many pieces together
in a single DAY, puts one the wrong
way, everybody sees it, and is
amazed.
