THE row in the Soudsn is going to play
havoc with the Wild animal trade this year,
said Superintendent Brown at the ZooloS-
zeal Garden. AS long IS there is a war
there, of course no animals can be exported
from that portion Of Africa. Lions are very
high now, although the market IS dull. A
good pair of African lions are worth $4,000
or more. Mostofthe hippopotsmi come from
Nubia ana the northwestern part of Africa.
If sl the -hippopotsmi in this country were
to take q notion to die, we conldn't get any
more for q long time"
Are they apt to die in captivity
"Yes; moving about isn't good for them.
Some animals seem to thrive better when
they are with menageries, going from one
part OF the country to another, bat 8 hippo
potamus ought to stay in one place. Last
year there were thirteen Of these animals In
the United States; o there are only eight.
Then there's the prospective war in Asia
that viii cut of another great wild-animal-
producing country if John Bull aud the
Car conclude to tight. The market is dull
enough now without these wars to set it
back. 6iraffes come from the Soudsn, and
they are very high-pecuniarily as well
as in stature. | think there are four
giraffes in this country now. We have one,
and there is nothing the matter with him
except his hoof; they are too long. We
try 10 clip them, but he don't ike it, and he
isliRble to kick q man fifteen feet or so.
Girsfes are great buffers, too. They can
strike 3 blow with their heads that would
astsnish Sullivan. Two baby girsfss, only
seven feet high, sold recently for $4,000.
It's almost impossible to put q price on
these animals now, they are so scarce"
A Great Lot Of Enthusiasm over Nsvada.
Saa FrIaciS0 GrORicis.
Ifsuch q thing were possible, the excite
ment was even greater at the close Of the
second sct. Every possible freak Of en-
thusiasm was INDUCED in. The gallery
clueked ike sage hens; the young men in
the dress circle gave q series Of war Whoops;
the ladies tore their bouquets from their
dresses and flung them on the stage, aud
the whole audience waved handkerchief for
the minute together, until the placed looked
ike q heavy SNOW storm. 1t would be bard
to tell how many times Nevada was recall
ed. Once she dragged out Maplsson with
her and loaded him with flower baskets, and,
when the impresario turned them topsy-
turyy In his confusion, pelted him with the
dropped flowers Even at the close Of the
opera the audience was unwilling to let her
so, and kept calling and calling for her I'M

night, in fact, was q great event. q great

sisted thereat are not soon likely to forget

Sterling Exchange Reaches = Point
Where ft Can be Done Probably.
NEW YORK, Dec. 22.-The absorbing topic In
Wall street to-day has been the advance In the
rates for foreign exchange, the quotation for de-
mand sterling bills reaching the point at which
shipments can be made at q proflt-49Oaa for
posted rates and 1884, for actual business
Ihere was an engagement for S1OO, 900 gold
this afternoon for shipment on Saturday, and
It Is generally believed that further shipments
IN moderate amounts will be made. The I'M
mediate cause for this advance has been the
advance in the Bank Of England rate Of dis
count last week, but more d.
the extremely light shipments OF grain to Liver
pool and other European ports, especially
wheat, while the visible supply of wheat in this
country Is far in excess of previous years. Mer-
chants who are familiar with the subject also
say that q considerable quantity of cotton
was sold last July by the planters
deliverable in 80 days, and that when the de-
Hverles were made there was q considerable adj
vance In the price OF spot cotton, which gave
ers. and led them to hold the stock
then on hand for higher prices, RESULT
ing In limited amount Of cotton
bills on the market at present It il claimed,
however, that this will have the effect of steady
ing the market throughout the winter, as ship
ments Of cotton will be made continuously in
moderate amounts.
The rates for sterling bills are now about the
same as they were at the time that shipments
were made In April and May, 1884. A break
In the price of wheat, 1t Is generally conceded,
would lead to the substitution of wheat for gold

Miller Foot-traeks Leading % .
Swamp.
The search for Philip H. Haviland, the miller.
OF Muncaster mills, Montgomery county, Nd,
who had disappeared and was supposed to have
been murdered, was begun systematically SUM-
day. and prosecuted yesterday with renewed
vigor. Haviland lived at Muncaster's mills,
about six miles north Of Wheaton, Montgom-
having previously lived In the neighborhood OF
Bryantown, Charles county, Md, where he has
a farm ana mill; ha ~ hsl has wife and
ried and lives in Charles county: another is
at boarding school, and two others, who are
little girls, live at home. Haviland. who was
fifty-five years old came from Quaker family
in Connecticut, but settled in Charles county.
He has been regarded AZ reticent and unsocia-
bic, but honest sober and industrious.
HIS JOURNEY TO THIS CITY.
Last Wednesday Haviland started with his
team to this city. He had in his wagon piece
of mill shafting which he intended to have
repaired, and, it Is stated, $50 in silver which
he had received from a neighbor and wanted
to change for paper money. Thursday
night at nine O'Clock he passed through
the Sligo toll-gate on his way home He stopped
the tolIsate. and appeared then to be- in excel.
lent humor He remained in the store about
half an hour and then drove on over the MOON
lit road towards home. An hour or SO later per.
sons going along the road near Wheaton no.
ticed a wagon standing two or three hundred
yards from the post office. Young ladies I'm the
house of the postmaster, Mr.. George Plyer,
state that about quarter past eleven o'clock
they heard what they suppose to have been cries
for help. but paid no attention to them, the
colored people in the neighborhood are con-
stantly making din at night.
HIS WAGON AND COAT FOUND.
About midnight John Bowman, who lives
about mile from w Wheaton, found horse and
wagon without driver on the road, and put it
in his stable. The next day blood stains were
found on the wagon. Subsequently a coat was
found hanging on the fence about twn hundred
yards north of the Wheaton post Office. The
coat and wagon were identified as belonging to
Haviland. These discoveries, together with the
fact that no news could be heard from Havi.
land, greatly excited the community and
search was instituted. Yesterday parties were
searching all day. Last evening, while a search
party was crossing plowed field, tracks Of two
men were found, which led to Q swampy piece
OF woods. On stone in the path Of the tracks
some blood was found. The tracks were fol-
lowed last night a distance of about 500 yards
to the swamp, where all traces were lost. Al
least fifty men were engaged in the search yes
terday.
The Body Not Found.
A special to THE STAR from Rockville this
afternoon says the body has not been found.
The search is still In progress.

OTTAWA, ONT, Dec. 22.-AleXander McGib-
bon, who was the government transport and
that the recent reports of the rising of the Blood
and other Indians in the Alberta district were
greatly exaggerated. Beyond a few cases of
horse stealing in the vicinity of Fort Mcleod,
the members OF the various tribes are unusually
quiet. The American Indians, across the Dor
der, need not be expected to commit any in
stringent measures adopted by the American
government The Blackfeet tribe, which is the
ries, are still friendly. Speaking of the work
accomplished by the war commission, Mr.. Nc
GibbOn said between l 900 and 200 claims
have been considered, and the amount paid out

campaign, including claims Nquidated, is about
