THE WIRE WAR.
1t was rumored that the Western Union
conceded enough to the board of trade to
move this latter body to give it the produce
quotations. But this morning, however,
the Western Union did not have the quota
lions, and the crowds were still standing
idly around in the bucket shops. The quo
tations from New York were being posted,
and the boys who post the quotations were
irving to get customers excited over these
New York figures, but they wouldn't get
excited, and wouldn't put up their money.
Over on the open board everybody had sad
sea-dog air, but tried to assume an appear
ance of unconcern. The New York markets
were being posted here too; but everybody
felt the absence of the big board figures.
The want was as well supplied as it could
be by members who have seats ''up stairs, :"
as well as ''down stairs" These rushed
continually from the big board to the little,
and from the little to the big, but the feel
ing was depressed. At the little cage of
the board of trade this morning it was no
ticed that quotations were being forwarded
on Western Union blanks. There was a
good deal of mystery observed, but an of
fetal said: ''The Western Union is send
ing out some messages, but I don't want to
be quoted" The truth probably is that
while settlement has really been made, it
is not advisable for it to become known
that the Western Union is trying to evade
an injunction.

How Queen Victoria Travels.

The queen goes in her own royal railway
train; all other trains along the road being
obliged to stop for half an hour before she
passes and for half an hour after she has
passed. This demoralizes the timetables
of the railroad almost as much as dyspep-
tics stomach is demoraliZed by irregularity
in eating. A railway director goes with
her train to see that all is right. A dyspep-
tic cannot swallow railway director; but
he can do better. Browns Iron Bitters
will cure his dyspepsia, as it did that of Mr..
j. L. Finley Of Clinton, La.

THE GAzETTE has said that "those mo

RnLE "a THE MtYoRLrY.

Sample Of the stuff that the DesMoines
Register prints:
Last year, by virtue Of million suppressed
votes Of tho South and ten thousand purchased
or stolen votes in the city OF New York. the
solid South entered into national control, and
for the FIRST time Ia IT. history gave the Amcri.
can republic over to the rule Of the minority.
In s2l John Quincy Adams was, by "a
conspiracy between the Puritan and the
blackleg, ''made president, although he had
received only 1921 votes against 1867
S72 for Andrew jackson.
In 1860 Abraham Lincoln was made
president by a vote OF l,sGG,S52 against
an opposition vote Of 2,sl0,5Ol.
In 1876 Rutherford b Hayes was fraud
ulently counted in as president, although
but 1893, $50 votes were given him, while
the Democratic candidate was given A.
2sl ,O79.
These are the only three minority presi-
dents In the history OF this country, and
IL should not escape notice that two of
them were Republicans, while the other
was the candidate of the party which OPP
posed the Democratic party.
