Heavy Failure.

ST. PAUL, May 1O.-The North
western Manufacturing Car Co., Of
Saltwater Minn., of which D. NJ.
Sabin is President, Z. D. Gilfillan,
Vice President, and III. r. Stemson,
Second Vice President and General
Manager. failed to-day. The particu.
lars are yet un0btainable. =.
LATER - Directoa Seymour, for
serly head of Seymour, Sabln & Co.,
which was merged in the North invest.
ern company, stated yesterday the
liabilities we're $1,000, 600; assets,
81 SOC, 600; that the company was be-
ing pressed by q number OF creditors
of obligations which they mad expect
ed to meet on money secured from the
east; that the suspension of the Ma.
rine Bank and the failure of Grant 4
Ward had go shaken confidence in
credits that they had found it impos-
slble to secure the expected advance.
To prevent attachments and the
tieing up of their property
the company had resolved to have q
receiver appointed. They expect to
discharge all their obligations and
after this temporary embarrassment
will resume business as a corpora
ton. It Is understood that A. III.
Brown, Of Hersey, Bean & Brown, of
Saltwater, has been selected receiver.
The Northwestern Car Co. had q
great backset in the Saltwater pen>
itentiary fire last winter. For some
time past the stock has been offered
freely in large quantities.
Later reports confirm the appoint
ment of Brown as receiver of the Car
Company. Commodore n. w.
Knittson, also director, when seen
tonight, said the company's affairs
had been well managed. She assets
he thought would more than three
times pay the liabilities. The paid
up capital was $4,000. 900.

Bullion Shipments.
The following are the bullion ship

ed May 10, 1884:
Pounds.

We were shown yesterday beautj-
full silver brick, containing about
twelve or fifteen ounces of the metal,
which was presented to Captain
Shepherd by his old time friend
Mr.. James Talbot. It was intended
the presentation should be made on
the evening of the Captains benefit,
but circumstances prevented. Dur>
ing the early days of the civil war
Mr.. Talbot served under the Cap
tain in the Quartermaster's depart
ment, and the friendship then
commenced has been cemented by
subsequent years Of close fellowship.
The Captain prizes the gift very
highly.

turned from Stevensvilie this week.
He reports that Sunday last man
brought in small amount OF gOld-
dust taken from soma Of the branches
of the Bitter Root, but he refused to
state where, as he had not located
any ground. He thought. however,
it would prove good pay and as soon
as he and two or three friends had
secured claims the location would be
announced to the public. The mines
on Three Mile Creek are paying from
$3.50 to IS day. Farmers nave their
wheat in but some oats is still to be
soWn. Gardens are not yet generally
planted, as the ground is most too
cold.
The River Press says: w. G.
SWEET, of Chestnut, has sold his herd
of cattle on that range to Z. w.
Price and I. q. Baker & Co., of this
city, the cattle to be delivered after
the roundup. The band numbers
between 5000 and 900 head. Bnd All
interesting feature of the sale is that
the calves are counted, which has
not been the practice in this section
heretofore. The price paid has not
been made public, but we learn "at
second hand" that it is in the very
near neighborhood of $3l a head.
Considering that the calves are
counted, this is perhaps equivalent to
$40 without counting the calves, as
the latter are numerous this year.
The sale will amount to something
over 800, 900, which is pretty nice
cleanup.

Jay Gould's Financial Affairs All Right.
NEW YORK. May 1O.-Inquiries
directed from Chicago reached this
city to>day IN regard to the financial
standing of jaw Gould. As nothing
was heard in New York except such
inquiries, Gould was sought and an
explanation requested. Gould said:
This question is not the only one of
the kind asked here to-day. A Wall
street news agency yesterday set
ahoat an entirely unfounded state
ment that the Union Pacific would
pass its July dividend. This was
done to influence Union Pacific stock.
There was not even meeting of
Union Pacific directors. This morn
ing it was openly announced on the
street there would be an attack on
Western Union and Missouri Pacific.
In pursuance OF this laudAble object
the information on which your in
quiry is based was telegraphed broad
cast over the country. I have re-
ceiyed numerous dispatches inquir-
ing into the truth Of the statement
that was in q financial difficulty. 1t
is needless to say there is not q word
of truth in it. The whole
purpose of the rumOr was
to create q demoralization in the
market so purchases could be made by
heavy buyers at reduced prices.
am Inclined to think" said Gould,
with twinkle OF his eve and glanc-
ing at the stock indicator, that
they were disappointed. Both stocks
are firm and my information is that
buyers are strong men," An inti-
mate friend of Gould informed res
porter that he (Gould) had recently
given substantial aid to many who
were crippled by the late troubles in
Wall street and he had been large
bidder to-day. He pronounced the
story of his financial difficulties a
ridiculous invention.

adults and six children died in one
day and they are afraid to remain on

GLENDALE ITEMS.
An Exciting Runaway - Shop
herd Recovering.

Pedestrian picnic parties are in
dulged in by the ladies these lovely
spring days. A party went up into
the hills this week, built fire, made
coffee and roasted potatoes to add to
the usual picnic fare. They also
penetrated the snow line and had a
rare game of snow-balling.
The monotony of our quiet camp
was broken last week by an excit-
ing runaway, in which common
sense, guided by Providence, pre-
vented serious accident. A young
man visiting here from the east, OBJ
tanned permission to take out one of
our pretti6st girls for a ride. The
team was pronounced safe by the
owner, although all the residents
knew it to be a runaway. The
young couple were not seated at the
lady's door before the fractions
team started and ran down hill
all the way. The young man soon
prasped the situation-and the feins
and pulled for life. The carriage
bounded and bounced and tipped,
rolled over stones and even over the
hydrant in front of Awards drug
store. Everyone expected to see
them dashed to pieces. Indeed, once
the young man was thrown over the
wheel, when his companion with
prompt and steady hands pulled him
back. All through that terrible ride
the young lady sat quiet and calm,
quite sure she ought not to jump. At
last the driver turned the horses and
forced them uphill. They ran into a
post, broke the buggy and skinned
one of the horses, but the young peo-
pie were unharmed, to the surprise
and joy of che excited and bare-head>
ed crowd that gathered. The citizens
insisted the young man should not pay
for the damage done, knowing the
character of the team and observing
tor themselves his admirable man.

went home and relieved her nerves

WASHINGTON, May 1O.-In the
Swain court of inquiry to-day
Chandler announced that with the
exception of one witness he was
ready to rest the case for Bateman.
The testimony of this witness was
such that he thought they might
agree upon the facts without calling
the witness. Paymaster Cary was
called and examined by the judge
advocate. When arrangements
were made to pay Morrows accounts
only in Washington, 80 far as wit
ness was aware, nothing was known
at the war department regarding any
duplication or duplication of the
accounts of the paymaster. General
Rochester was notified to the same
effect. The court at the request of
General Swaim's counsel adjourned
until Wednesday, when the evidence
for the defence will be given.

Debate in the Reichst.9..

BERLIN, May 9.-In the reischstag
to-day the debate on the bill to renew
the special anti-sOcialist law was re-
sumed. Richter pronounced the law
a. failure, emphasizing the fact that it
had not prevented an attempt to blow
up the Niederwald monument. Won
Putkamer, the Prussian home secre-
tary, disagreed with Richter. He held
that the occurrence instead of being
an argument against the prolongation
of the law afforded good reason for
it. The law defended the secret po-
lice and their d0ings with criminals.
There were circumstances under
which no government could do with
out secret police. If the anti-social-
ist law hadn't been enacted the 0mis-
sion would have been atoned for in
torrents of blood. All those states
that do not possess such a law are
being undermined by antagonistic
ideas, the legitimate conseq uence Of
social democracy. The government
did not fail to appreciate DR..
Windhorst's good Intentions, but they
were unable'tO reconcile his views
with government responsibility.
Bismarck also spoke in defense of
the bill. He referred to the motion
made by Windhorst in 1881, providing
for the adoption of an international
law, regarding the punishment of
regicides, and read a letter written by
the emperor On the occasion of the
ASSASSINATION of Czar Alexander,
showing that the emperor had pro-
duced such measures before DR..
Windhorst. and that Russia and Aus
tria were in favor Of an international
conference. France made her de-
cision dependent upon the action that
England should take. England re-
jected the proposal and Austria after
wards withdrew her consent. The
negotiation was now confined to
Germany and Russia. These govern
ments could not make the law more
lenient than it was already, but they
hsped through social agencies to give
the wOrkmen their due; namely, to
work 50 long as they were able to la
Dor, and support them when they
were unable to toll longer. Parlia-
obstruction simply impeded
the government. If the bill should
be rejected the government would
discuss it with the reischtag. Should
that body reject all attempts at deal
ing with the evil, the government
would be eXonerated from all reSpOn-
sibility and could regard any further
developments Of the social democracy
with a quiet conscience.
