Special to the Globe.
New YORK, Feb. 26.-One of the main
topics of discussion in the street to-day has
been the st. Paul terminal loan. 1t was re-
ported that Blake Bros, who had the placin g
of the loan, would return the balance of the
bonds and decline to recommend them to
their customers as No. securities, and that
foreign investors fought shy of them. This
was the tenor of the reports circulated up
town last evening, and current in the streets
before the opening this morning. There
were So, 900, 900 of the bonds offered for sale,
and 81, 200, 600 were sold and distributed
months ago. Blake Bros. have an option for
the other 81, 200, 900, which has not yet ex-
pired, and there has been no notice given of
their cancellation of the option. Vice-Presi-
dent Wadsworth is authority for the state
ment that if Blake Bros. don't want the
bonds there are plenty of people who do.
John Bloodgood says the bonds are good
security anc can be sold at 80, and if any re-
main unsold that they can easily be placed
by the new syndicate. The reports concern
ing the coming dividend of the company
continue as wide apart as before. 1t may be
stated on good authority that cables have been
sent to London by parties who claim to know
whereof they speak, that it will be II per
cent. instead of 81 per cent, making per
cent. for the year. at the same time it has
been bought by Chicago parties at 219 per
cent, aud representatives of the company
here insist that 80 per cent. has been earned
and will be paid in cash and not in stock.

He Got The Pass.

The other day IL native of the Emerald
island, in the employ of one of the railroad
companies, doing road work, went into the
uperintendent's Office and said: "Gineral,
will you give me pass to Chicago?" The
superintendent did not appear to notice him
and the question was repeated The super
intendent asked him who he was, and being
told that he was working on the road told
him to get, with few profane epithets, and
commenced work again. He looked up in a
minute and was surprised to see the intruder
standing in the center of the Office tossing
his hat round and round. II thought 1
told you to get out!' said the irate superin-
tendent.
''But want pass first"
Take tie pass,--you," answered the
superintendent as he again continued at his
work. He again looked up, and still the dirt
HEAVIER was holding his ground. This time
the superintendent cursed him roundly, and
said he would pitch him out of the office.
The husky laborer, at this, got nervous and
commenced pulling himself together, and as
soon as he was in trim he said: "Ginera,
if you or any of your men can pitch me out
of here, you are welcome to try" The
superintendent was amazed, though greatly
amused, and called to his clerk to make out
| q round-trip pass for the Irshman, which.
when he had signed ii, he delivered to the ap-
| plicant, with the observation eff | don It
! like your style land don't want you to stay in
Chicago, but get back as soon as possible,

The Western Trunk Line association has

mont & Missouri Valley business from the
association. This withdrawal, it is claimed
by the other roads, removed it from the COM
bination, though the Northwestern claims
still to be member. The Rock Island,
Milwaukee & St. Paul and Wabash
roads want the pool continued with
the removal of the Northwestern.
Unless the Union Pacific can be compelled to
carry out its original contract with the Rock
Island and Milwaukee 81 st. Paul roads this
cannot be done. The Union continues to
give the Northwestern and Burlington the
same facilities and terms as to the tripartite
roads, but it has given no indication of the
position it means to take. Under the con-
tract it would be compelled to give all its
business to the tripartite lines, which would
operate against the other roads. The asso-
citation is under heavy expense, maintaining
high-priced agencies and offices, for which

feel that the end has not come. 1t has been

PITTsBURG, Penn, Feb. 26.-William jack
son Moore of Triadelphia, Washington
county, was in this city to-day for the pur-
pose of consulting legal advice concerning
some property of which he claims to have
been defrauded by his relatives. Moore,
who is 81 years of age, tells wonderful
story of privations and suffering. He claims
for eleven years his step-daughter and her
husband kept him prisoner in cellar and
that he was not permitted to leave his prison
except. occasionally at night, when
he would be allowed to walk
about the yard bound with ropes.
Some days ago he missed his usual allow
ance of food which was usually passed him
through small hole in the door. Hearing
no sound in the house he determined to
make his escape, and with large stone
which he had worked loose in the wall, bat
tered the door down. His relatives were no
where to be seen, and with money which he
found in one Of the drawers he came to
Pittsburg. Previous to his imprisonment he
says he was forced to make viii in favor of
his step-daughter, and on the day preceding
his incarceration neighbors were Informed
that the old man was going to Michigan.

THE SILVER FIGHT.


How it Was Conducted In the House.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-The attempt to
suspend for year the coinage Of silver dol
lars met Waterloo in the house to-day.
So much so that Mr.. Randall abandoned it
before the reaching Of the direct vote. 1t
was rather late in the forenoon when the
sundry civil bill was reported. 1t was on
this appropriation bill the clause was
attached to suspend the coinage for one year
Mr.. Randall asked for a suspension of the
rule and the passage Of the BILL Offering to
allow four hours debate on the silver clause.
In this motion there was trick. Had it
prevailed, majority could then have passed
the bill, silver section and all The silver
men anticipated this, and demanded a vote
on the bill without reservations Of any k ind.
To the surprise Of the
ANTI-sILvER MEN.
Mr. Randall could not secure a majority vote
for his bill. much less the two-thirds. Two
hundred and sixty-seven members went on
record; Of these 40 voted against the bill
and lis for it. When the result was an
nounced there was a terrific round Of ap-
plause. The Southern and Western Demo
Gratis have prevailed, and the monopoists Of
the East have been defeated. OF the rs votes
for the bill, ffty-four were cast by
Democratic and 81 By Republicans. The
bulk of the entire affirmative came from the
Eastern and Middle state representatives. or
the 14J votes cast against the bill 116 came
from Democrats and SO from Republicans.
When Mr.. Randall, who was in charge of the
measure, saw the overwhelming sentiment
against the silver clause he announced to
tue house its withdrawal for the bill was
EFFECTUALLY KILLED.
The New Orleans exposition clause was
considered, although the proceedings Incl
dent to a vote were without excitement. The
result is most significant To put it plain,
the newly elected president, Grover Cleve-
land has been rebuked in a Democratic house
having over seventy majority. 1t is known
that he intends or had intended to recommend
the suspension of silver coinage in his
inaugural message. For three weeks ex-
Senator Baruum and others have been here
openly declaring that they represented the
president-elect's views and they actively lob
bied TO carry the silver amendment. 1t is
not thought the vote Of to-day will constrain
Mr.. Cleveland to
CHANGE HIS VIEWS
OF plans as to his inaugural, but Il will seem
10 indicate quite po.utedly that in pressing
any legislation antagonistic to the silver
dollar the Democratic party as represented
direct from the people in the house of repre-
sentatives cannot be held together. Although
Mr.. Cleveland has suffered defeat at the
hands Of his party friends there is no dispo-
sitIon 10 be cXaltant. The feeling
among members is rather one Of regret
that such an issue should have
been forced. Some say when heis inaugura-
ted and comes in contact with those of more
national views than surrounds the atmos-
phcre Of Albany he will radically change his
ideas. The more rabid silver men OF course
talk of Wall street influence and the bloated
buudholdcrs' influence.
