In the Adornments Found in the
House OF VIM. II. Moses q Son.
To enter the colossal furniture and house
furnishing castle of w. B. Moses & Son,
corner OF + and Eleventh streets, is passing
from the common world 10 the realm Of
romance. A new creation OF beauty, lux
ury, delight is around. Ascend to the sec
ond floor. The grand expanse has been
converted into various gorgeous apartments.
Now the saloon drawing room. 100 by 60
feet, I-shaped, appears; now a reception
parlor; another, and still another, the
central one OF these latter three having
ceiling upholstered with Madras lace. The
floors Of each are covered with richest Per-
sian and Smyrna rugs, the walls OF each
form ed OF curtains and portieres, wonderful
IN variety OF material and intrlcacy and
plcturesqueness OF work. Elaborate andex.
quisite tables, chairs, sofas, mirrors abound,
covers for seats, for pianos, draperles for
mantels. Here is a Damascus tidy, silk, In
terwoven with glittering metal, fresh rust
ling from the Holy Land. 1t is chair
adornment, TO be carelessly bowed on ona
side of the back. A silk plush portlerre
commands attention, with its heraldic en-
broidery, metal effect; then o royal velour
curtain OF silk with satin lining. Laces
now are seen-curtalns OF irish point, Rus.
sian and real. One is peculiarly noticeable,
point duchess, OF which kind there are
only eight pairs in this country,
four Of these being here offered.
Other laces on view are the Colblre,
Brussels, points and net, Swiss and
point applique. Painted and embroidered
plush, embroidered satin, aud Turkish, em-
broidered in gold bullion, curtains hang
around. Satin damask, brocatelle, ami
satin plush tapestries are also displayed.
The changing scenes, wandering through
these temporary apartments, while they
charm the eyes, almost bewilder the mind,
and transport the Imagination to tho en-
chnnted palace Of Aladdin. During the
plation, fear rises lest all be q dream and
the lovely forms and colors may vanish and
be no more.

Cox's Reward.
The special correspondent Of the Pitts.

lowing:
The President hes felt great sympathy with
Representative Cox. Of North Carolina, In his
defeat for re election, for he believes that had
Mr.. Cox not been such an earnest adyOcare of
tho policy of civil service reform he might
have been returned to Congress. Mr.. Cleve.
land has been looking about to see what posi-.
tion he could offer Mr.. Cox at the expiration
OF his congressional term, and 1t is understood
that he has finally decided to allow the North
Carolina representative to take his choice of
the Austrian mission or the appointment rs
Judge of the supreme court of the District of
Columbia. Chef Justice Cartier, Of this court
Will soon retire, and the plan Is believed to be
TO then elevate Justice Macarthur to the chief
justiceship and appoint Mr.. Cox to the vacancy
should he elect to remain here.
The statement is news to both the chief
justice and Justice Macarthur, and II there
is 'combinen going on in relation to their
seats upon the bench they have not been let
into the secret. Chief Justice Cartier at
present has expressed no intention Of retlr-
Ing from the bench, neither has his associate,

THE MARKETS.
A Panic in stocIss-vIgorous Raid by
the Bears.

the Bears.
NEW YORK, Dec 1d.--The stock market
gave promise Of some improvement in the
early hours, but was feverish and unsettled to
a large extent, although quotations advanced.
Later the bidding up of money to an extremely
high rate offered another opportunity to the
bears to vigorously raid prices, and decided
slump, bordering on panic, was the effect on
the last hour. The unsettled condition Of New
England kept the market feverish and irregu-
lar when II would otherwise have been firm to
strong.
The southern speolaltlcs, by their enormous
Declines coupled with the selling of New Eng.
land by the Boston people, wore the principal
features of the afternoons trading. The favor
able fnotors in the situation were the steady
buying for foreign account, which was esp3
ciAlly noticeable I'm the forenoon, and the fur.
ther drop In the rates for sterling exchange.
All such influences, however, counted for
naught in the rush to sell In the afternoon. In
the morning there was some improvement in
jersey Central on the announcement that the
Baltimore aud Ohio was now using the road
under the contract, and the stocks bought by
the foreign people were prominently strong
including Reading, Erie aud Louisville and
Nashville.
About one third of the entire DAYS business
was transacted in the last forty-lyc minutes,
and the market closed very active and weak
at the lowest prices Of the day.
