heave, the operators left their instruments
and the men in the lower part Of the building
made for the streets. In the Chamber of Com

felt ON helower floor. The shock passed, leav-

LONDON, Sept. 19.-Tn accordance with the de-
cision reached on Monday by tho conference re-
garding Egyptian finances, in which Lord North
brook, Sir Evelyn Barring, Nubar Pasha and
others took part, the Ministry of Finance has
given orders that the revenues assigned the
Caisse de la aette Publique for redemption Of
the united debt by purchases in
open market, should be temporarily paid
into the Egyptian treasury. The purpose of
this action is to enable the treasury to pay the
current expenses Of the government and the
tribute to Turkey, Such payment is now inn
possible. owing to the heavy deficit. The mem
bers of the Caisse protest against this action.
They say they will hold the Governors Of the
provinces answerable for payment made with
out receipt from the Caisse.
The action of the Egyptian finance ministry
in d~iverting these revenues has created a pro-
found sensation in Paris. The newspapers Wig
orously denounce the policy of England, and lie

such an audacious violation Of international
liquidation.

The attendance was not quite as large as had
been counted upon, the visitors numbering some
seventy; and General Tom Brady was unable to

of the day. General Brady's place was well
filed, however, By Captain j. F. Elliott, of Ko-

those who were here. Early afternoon the vet
