it would be a profitable Investment. In

WALSH VS.. CHANDLER.
The Star Route Witness Wants to
Corner the Secretary.

WASHINGTON, April 25.-John a. Walsh,
star route witness, to-day sent Chairman
Springer, of the house committee on expen-
ditures of the department of justice, the fol-
lowing letter:
''SIR.-In letter written you, by me,
some time ago, I respectfully suggested that
the Hon. W. E. Chandler, secretary of the
navy, be summoned to produce before your
committee that letter written him by the Hon.
B. H. Brewster, attorney general, in which
appeared, as alleged by. che accused, friends
of the honorable secretary of the navy, GER
tain structures relating to me. In the inter
est of justice and good government, I again
request that you summon the gen.
tleman to produce before your committee
said letter I also have to request
you to examine the gentleman as to how he
came to receive that letter, and whether it
was not written in response to his repeated
solicitations made to the attorney general.
1t is, perhaps, needless to assure you 1 have
have no desire to destroy the robust eficien-
cy Of the honorable secretary as witness for
the defense, but feel in justice to myself,
in justice to another gentleman, and for the
proper enforcement of law, that it would be
well to enlighten the good people of the
country as to how it came to pass that the
no norable secretary of the navy became the
happy possessOr of a certificate Of character
signed by the attorney general of the United
States.
Very respectfully, J. A. WALSH.

This report was denied, and it is said Read

rallied sharply before the close. About p.
N. the Trunk line managers were reported
as having agreed upon a fair percentage.
This was Followed by better prices. Lacka-

The New York Journal Of Commerce report
of the produce market Friday contains the
following: ''Wheat opened with unusua-
excitement and remarkable buoyancy. The
price was hardly regarded in the anxiety to
buy and heavy upward movement took place.
One or two parties were the main buyers and
at certain price, which represented the mar
ket at one time, one party was taking all
offered. The early market was up 394@3Nc

was break Of 1I@2c. rallying
again to the highest, but dropped toward the
close 14@]5c, closing irregular. There was
some talk Of trouble in meeting margins on
the part Of one or two of the smaller oper-
ators, which had little influence. While
some parties have faith in the stability Of the
market, yet as a rule the disposition is to
take in the profits. Shorts are very nervous,
and they hurry in to cover when large buy
ers take hold. Spot lots of winter is up 2(9

there is a quiet feeling. Spring grades are

A Remarkable Prize Fipht.

PITTsBURG, April 25.-One of The most re-
markable prize fights that ever occurred in
this city or vicinity, took place last night at
Arsenal park, between Bilson Jack and Jack
Clifford, for 500 side. Previous to the
battle ball had been in progress, in which
over thirty young girls and several mothers,
with infants in their arms were participants
When time was calledfaat 1880, the women
as well as the men crowded around the ring,
and during the fight, the former were the
most enthusiastic shouters for their respective
favorites. The fight was with soft gloves to
a finish, London prize ring rules. From the
start, Clifford, who displayed the most
science, had the best of it, and soon had the
battle well in hand. Bilson Jack fought
savagely, however, and refused to give up
until the 121st round, when his friends in
terfered and the mill was awarded to Clifford.
Both men were terribly punished. Bison
Jack had to be carried from the ring. A
number of policemen watched the fight to a
close without interfering. The battle lasted
an hour and forty minutes.

Especial Telegram to the Globe. |

Special Telegram to the Globe.
NEW YORK, April 25.-The bears scored
another success to-day, the chief point of
attack being the coal stocks. They were in
a state of semi-panic. During the early hours
Jersey Central fell from S24 to n, and
Reading from 45 to Az. Free selling of
long stocks continued throughout the morn
ing. A few of the dividend payers managed
to stand up under the excitement but the
majority wilted. The pool on Union Pacific
seemed to hold it at about 81. The feeling
was very feverish when the coal stocks broke,
and the rally which occurred about O'Clock
was fortunate for all concerned. In the last
hour the market became much
steadier. Union Pacific rose to
6S15, and there was fractional
improvement all along the line. The change
for the better was occasioned more by the
covering of the shorts than through any
prominent buying for long account. The
Generalization is so complete that few have
the hardihood to predict that bottom has
been reached as yet After all the excite
ment, with the exception of the coalers
prices closed trife better than On lasteven
ing Northern Pacific earnings for the third
week in April increased $4,000.
A. NJ. Day says: ''The market to-day has
been largely Reading and Jersey Central
During the first hour there was little feature
save the great feverishness. After this de-
termined effort was made to break Reading,
and before the noon hour pretty large
break was made. Jersey followed close after,
the former reaching IL and the latter H."
A Philadelphia special dispatch says:
Reading has been sold here to-day on a
statement that parties who have loaned
money on $4,000 shares of Jersey Central
stock held for account Of the Reading rail.

Robbery and Murder.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, April 25.-At one
o'clock this morning two men robbed the
house of VIM. Wayne, farmer, residing
near Berne, Adams county, securing small
sum of money. The men went then to the
house of Amos Brackstross, three-fourths of
mile from WaYne's, and forced an en-
trance. The noise awakened Brackstross.
and as he rose in bed he was shot through
the heart. The house was robbed of S73.
Two men suspected of the crime were arrest
ed near Geneva and lodged in Jail at Bluff
ton, Wells county. There is great excite
ment and threats of lynching are reported.

It. II. Wood & Co., of Minneapolis, in
their circular tonight, say:
During the past month our Mr. s. H Wood
has been quietly investigating the condition
of the market with a view to ascertaining the
cause of the markets wild fluctuations, and
on Saturday evening he received not only
the last proof of his suspicion, but also a con-
tidential vitation from the leaders to join
in running corner in a certain article on
the Chicago market, the deal to be closed
within sixty days, the profits to be divided
proportionatey. The article to be invested
in has actual merit in itself-the parties I'M
dertalling the deal are strong, and there
seems to be no doubt bnt that the corner can
be safely run, but will also pay very large
profit to those who invest. While Mr.. Wood
is held to strict secresy in the matter, we
viii at the same time extend to our custom
ers, old or new, the invitation to join with
us, either as body or separately las in union
there is always strength Should you desire
to join US please advise us as early as posi-
BILE how much you wish to put in, and
whether you wish to join with others or in
vest separately.
