TO VISIT NEW YORK.
Gen. Harrison VIII Go, but the Time
Has Not Been Fixed.

Indianapolis Special to the n Y World
About the going to New York and the visit Of
Vice President-elect Morton here there is q
pretty mystery had to-day palpable expla-
nation Of all the assertion and condensation
up 10 that point II came from a reliable
source too I'm the first place." said nv in
formant. 1.-THE World was right in saying point
blank that the general was going to New York.
and his trip was merely postponed. The reason
for that postponement is a nice one, but Gen.
eral Harrison doesn't admit he is going. He
simply is silent, az you know; so when, by and
by, he does get ready to go, ii will come as a
new proposition from him. The truth is, Har-
rison Is trying to dodge something. When
they asked him TO New York to discuss meas
ures'' he saw il meant rather a discussion of
men. The nasty mess that is brewing in New
York he has an eye on. Now, an unpleasant
feature OF the New York situation is Tom Plat.
Mr. PLATr ON THE ANXIOUS SEAT.
"In few days there is to be an election of
officers in the United States express company.
and Mr.. Platt's reelection to the presidency of
the company is probable. He is on pins to
know what Harrison intends doing with him.
He wants to know what to do about the accent
ance of the New York trust. There are certain
positions the law wouldn't let him fill if he
kept that job. An effort has been made in
more ways than one to get Gen. Harrison to
show his hand in regard to New York. or to
give some inkling of what the attitude was to
be, but he won't. That is the reason he STAYS
away from New York. He will let some people
there wrestle with uncertainties and take their
chances TO the proposition to have Mr. Nor
ton come here, bringing some of the big
four with him, Gen. Harrison has given a
very cold reception. He wants to see Mr. Nor
ton, and that right badly. and the visit has
been under consideration for some time. but he
doesn't want the wranglers to come in Morton's

A Peculiar Well.

The curious scientist has wide field for
speculation before him in a well which the
Denver Republican says is located in the east
ern part of Arapahoe county, Col. A few years
ago some pioneer settlers put down pipe well
FOR artesian water. They struck at 400 feet,
not water, but gas. Visions of Pittsburg of
the west doomed up before them. Suddenly
the presumed gnome laborers who were work
ing the blow fan at the bottom Of the well quit
work, and another shift commenced to reel mp.
Instead of sending gas high into the air the
well began sucking in air, and IL continued for
thirty-six hours. Ever since the we'll has
spouted gas thirty hours and then became q
powerful shelton pipe for thirty-six. OF course,
1t is useless unless IL could be harnessed to
some mechanical contrivance that would run
by gas power part of the time and continue to
operate BY Q reverse windmill until the gas
came again. This reads like the Wild imagin-
ing OF some fevered brain, but the Denver
paper asserts that IL has no fanciful, but real
existence.

THE PEACE OF EUROPE.
Emperor William Confident Of Preserv-
ing IL with the Aid Of His Friends.

In his speech opening the German reichstag
yesterday the emperor said he had undertaken
to execute his grandfather's precious legacy
with reference TO social and political legisla-
ton. He did not indulge the hope that it
would be possible 70 Danish from the world by
legislation the distress and misery Of mankind
IL was the duty Of the government, however, to
alleviate this as far possible, and by organic
institutions to bring about a recognition OF the
truth that the manifestation Of love Of ones
nelghbor is the duty Of the state as public
community.
With reference 70 foreign relations he said:
"Our relations with all foreign powers are
peaceful. Ny efforts have been unceasing to
strengthen this peace. The alliance with AUS
ira and Italy has no other object To bring
without necessity, the miseries even of a victo-
rious war upon Germany would be incompati-
BILE with my christian faith and my duties to-
WARD the German people. Actuated thus, /
considered 1t my duty, shortly after my acces-
sion to the throne, personally to greet not only
my allies, but also, and in the first place, the
friendly neighboring monarchs, in order to
seek an understanding with view to the fulfill
ment of the task that God has set before me of
securing to our people the blessings Of peace
and prosperity, as far as lies in our power.
The confidence extended b me and my policy
at all the courts which have visited justifies
the hope that and my allies and friends. with
OF Europe"
When the reichstag settled down to business
the budget was presented. 1t balances at
949, 103. 907 marks. According to the memo
randa accompanying the naval estimates, sew
eral new war ships will be built besides those
now IN course OF construction, the additions to
comprise four iron-clads. nine smaller armored
vessels, seven corvettes, four cruisers, two dis
patch vessels and two torpedo boats. The in
crease in the army expenditures amounts to

The Land-Purchase Bill.
PARNELL WOULD SUPPORT IT IF IT DEALT WITH
THE QUESTION OF ARREARS.


The debate on the land-purchase bill was re-
sumed in the house of commons last night by
Mr.. Parnell. He declared emphatically that he
approved the bill, but he believed that it was
80 designed that under the present circumstan-
ces, it would be impossible to put it into effec-
tive operation. He had always held that the
creation of peasant proprietary was the only
means of solving the land question. The gov
eminent had not taken up the land question
with view to helping tenants, but at the soli-
citation Of landlords, who, seeing that they
could not any longer maintain their position,
wanted to dispose of their property at inflated
prices. G''Hear! Hear!''l The measure showed
an entire absence of consideration for the ma
tional sentiment If the government meant
well to tenants by the bill, he implored them
to insert suitable provisions dealing with
arrears--the tenants greatest difficulty.
Lord Randolph Churchill said the assertion
that the bill was introduced to enable landlords
to sell at inflated prices would not bear exami-
nation. The Parnellites knew that imitation
did not exist in Ireland, but very much the re-
verse. Lord Randolph, continuing, said he
trusted that after the recent speeches Of the
minister's the government would bring up the
arrears question early in the future.
The bill passed the second reading by q vote
of 299 to 224
