intervening Sunday gave the people time to consider the situation carefully and see how grave it really k. The great fall in stocks is according tO the | opinions of the most conservative men | here not really at an end. Stocks have been bolstered up to an absurd degree and until the present time only the small fry have been much hurt. The
 weakest spots, perhaps, in the whole market, after the Gould stocks are elim- mated, are the Northern Pacific and | Oregon Transcontinental, though every l possible struggle has been made to keep them up. Henry Clews was asked as to the special meaning of the drop in the Willard stocks, there being various rum Ors of trouble with some of the holders. He said: ''I think the great trouble with the Northern Pacific and Oregon Trans continental is that that part of the eOun- try has been growing too fast. It means they have S,OOO miles of road to very scanty population as against 6,0OO miles of road in New York State with a pop ulation O. 5,OOjOO0."

Father Prendergast says; "The dispatch hints strongly that this papal appOlutee will be or has been opposed by Arch bishop AIemany, and of course | can not say what the Archblshop's course has been, but I imagine he may have doubted whether success in a homo geneous diocese like that of Chicago would necessarily insure success in such a heterogeneous polyglot peculiar dio cese as this" The Vicar General then proceeds to say that the information given and published is all the more mis- chievOus because 1t contains a thread of truth. T acknowledge" he continues, that there is a point here and there ot dIsaifection concerning the Archbishop's personal administration, but could one expect anything else Tn a jurisdiction that has extended over so many years?
