JAY GOULD.
He Shows a Million Shares of His Sew
eral Stocks.

New York, January 22.-Jay Gould
showed his securities the other day in
order to rally the market. Last spring
he did the same thing successfully, but
this year it is looked on as a sign of
weakness. Mr.. John. Il. Terry, a
banker and friend of Jay, says that
last Friday George Gould took him
down into his fathers vault
in the Mercantile Safe De
posit company and showed
him about one one million shares Of
stock, divided as follows: Western
Union. 420, 600; Missouri Pacific, l60,-
900; Manhattan, $4,000; Waba h 200
900; miscellaneous l55, 900. Terry had
questioned Jay Gould about q rumor
that the latter had been compelled to
try and negotiatea loan for f2.OOO 600
sterling on Western Union in Eng
land. In conversation to-day Mr..
Terry said: "Talk about bursting Jay
Gould! They might as well try. to
break the universe" Brokers think
otherwise.

An Iowa Decision of General Interest to
the Order.

Waterloo, Ia, January 27.-A trial
of interest to members Of the Ancient
Order of United WOrkmen, after being
given u hearing for eleven days, was
decided yesterday by Judge Tdtt. The
facts are these: In 1882 the grand lodge
of Iowa became Incorporated under the
state law and threw off its alliance to
the supreme lodge. A minority OF the
grand lodge, however, remained loyal,
and was recognized as the regular
grand lodge of the state by the supreme
lodge. suit was brought TO determine
the right to the franchise and property
of the order. The court holds that the
mere act of incorporation under the
state law has no power to release sub
ordinate body from its allegiance to q
superior body. The decision vests the
franchise and property of the organi-
cation in the grand lodge, of which w;

THE STATE CAPITAL.
A Prospect of Work and No More Talk
for BuncOmbe.
Probable Early Legislation-Anent the
Hancock Interview.
Special to the Gazette.

Special to the Gazette.
Austin, January 2T.-A number of
senators and representatives tonight
agreed to adopt system of reciprocal
ing legislation, by which each
house will devote the afternoon ses-
sion to the bills of the other
till disposed of. A resolution to this
effect will be introduced in each house
after the morning call tomorrow. and
will probably meet with no opposition.
Leading senators say that body will
tomorrow pass the bill requiring pas
turemen to put in gates every three
miles. Cattlemen do not object to
this, and a large majority of the senate
favor it.
The senate will also take up the
house road bill, and there is no doubt
of its passage, the working majority
favoring it.
The exposition appropriation bill is
is thought to be beyond danger.
There Is earnest effort among lead
ing senators and Representatives to har-
monte their work, to suppress cam
paign speeches and put business
through under pressure of the previous
question.
Now that Congressman Hancock
confirms his News interview, indigna-
ton runs high and the threatened res
olutions of rebuke and condemnation
may be thrown into both houses. For
such patriot as Hancock to question
other peoples patriotism is mockery,
and at this juncture to assail the ex-
ecutive's integrity and craftsmanship,
and the senate's good sense, but shows
q spirit that no true son of Texas will
sympathize with. Senator Terrell
is known to have taken
an active part in securing
confirmation of the interview.
The insult to the senate for refusing to
pass Terrell's bill was gross in the ex-
IRENE, but its purpose Is thought to he
the first play of the conspiracy to as
sail the Democratic party of Texas and
fight ii with an independent candid
ate for governor, with Terrell, Han
cock and the News az the trio Of the
leadership.
The house of Representatives. is being
suitably decorated with drapery to-
night and is being otherwise fitted up
for the memorial services on Tuesday
evening.

tain. In conversation tonight with
Ex-Governor Martin and other gent e.
men at his rooms in the Avenue hotel,
the president of the senate said he
would be glad to see from $50, 900 TO
100000 appropriated for purpose
like this, which was sure not only to
rebound to the honor of Texas, but
also to the promotion of its best inter
ests. Gen. Claiborne, Senator Farrar
and Col. Rogers expressed themselves
in a similar manner. If the apprppri-
alton should. however, fall through, l
have no doubt sufficient funds would
be raised by private subscription to Sc
cure the representation of Texas at the
