NEW YORK, Dec. D. Eddie Gould reap
pears.d i'm Wall street last week and made
stock market hearts glad. Drcary tales
have bccn current tn the effect that this
interesting young man had reformed. and
was pletlge<i To his fond father never moro
to toy with the stock market, or at least
never tn he utterly wicked as tn ''sell
short" that fond parents rattic-trap rail-
road stocks. But the revelation came
that the wiles of the world had overcome
him. IL happened lately that Jay Jo,ild's
elder sOn. George. organized pool
i'm Missouri Pacific stock, proposing to
bull il. DAY Gould himself not only APP
proved OF the scheme, but took u per
sonal s'interest' i'm il. Funds vvers. sleJos-
iteti, brokers we're hired. and all the ma
nipulation machinery was put in readiness
for vigorous action. Somehow the boom
failed tn matcrialixe. The clique worked
hard and bought heavily. They lifted the
market by main strenth tIp two three
points above 40. buying most at the top.
Yet the price got down tn G6. The more
the pool seemed willing To b,iy the easier
il haas seemed willing tO come out. Now
comes mp Edwin Gould. who Gloats in un-
brotflerly fashion over the Missouri Pa
ciflc big pools tistrt.sses. George is routed,
Jay is unslone. hut Eddie, ns wicked as
ever, can afford to- do enough smiling for
the whole family with an average
profit of five full points on 25,GU shares
of stock. or Sl25.OoO the profits of a

Savage Attack ON the Papacy.

special to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch
respondent wires very savage attack
upon the papal see and says, among other
things, that Monsiegneur Satolli will be sent
to Ireland to undo the effect of Monsiegneur
Persio's alleged duplicity. The Times man
claims that the papacy is discredited in
Europe, politically, and gloats over the fact
that at the anti-slsvery conference now sit
ting in Brussels it was decided not to in
vite the Vatican to send any delegates
to the convention of nations. The cable
concludes with these remarks about the
situation in this country: ''If it pleases
American Catholic dignitaries- to pass reso-
buttons about the restoration of'the Pope.
temporal sovereignty nobody in Europe
will mind it very much. But they ought
to understand that the Pope as politician
has not a single friend in Europe, and what
is more, neither desires to have
any, nor ever again will have any.
If the present Pope lives three or four
years longer, it is not at all impossible that
a strong party will have arisen in the
meantime disposed to make Cardinal Glib
bons Pope, and move the whole papal
establishment over to America. Even
now there is considerable speculative talk
about this in respectable Catholic circles
where it is clearly, recognized that italian
narrowness, bigotry and insincerity are
suffocating the church. A very little more
of the present sort of thing will turn the
peoples attention to this possible alterna-
tive outside Rome"

RumOrs About His GrandsOn's
Prince Victors Dhuleep'S
ENGAGEMENT TO MISS TURNURE.
Of New Yora-A Story of British Oppression
in india-The Inevitable Struggle-The
Princes Resolve.
Especial to THE HERALD Examiner Dispatch

Especial TO THE HERALD Examiner Dispatch.1
New YORK, Dec. "A Halifax, n. S.,
dispatch published yesterday, announced
the engagement of Prince Victor Dhuleep
Singh and Miss Jeanne Turnure, of this
city World reporter who called at All
Fifth street, the house of Lawrence Tur-
nure, found coats of arms emblazoned upon
the wall Of the imposing entrance to the
palatial residence. a young man in full
evening dress ushered the reporter into the
reception room, and in a few minutes Mrs.
Turnure, an aristocratic looking woman,
entered. Eyes, indeed. / have read the
telegram to which you refer" she said in
answer to the reporters inquiry. SIT was
complete and most painful surprise to US,
and absolutely without any foundation at
all. While the Prince may have been our
friend and our guest at Lennox, yet there
was nothing in our treatment of him nor in
his acts to us that could have led anyone to
believe him and my daughter engaged. 1
believe the report of an engagement must
have come from some person in society who
is an enemy of my daughter; some one, per-
haps, who was piqued at not having re-
ceived an invitation to one of our dances at
A-ShhO1As anu Aflo IcttACA Sulo lllCdu way W D6
revenged. He certainly succeeded in
greatly annoying US, whoever he may be.
Another story was published in the same
paper regarding the riding of my daughters
at Lennox. 1t was all very nice and COM
plimentary until the closing, when it very
sarcastically commented that it was not a
matter of surprise that she rode well since
some OF her ancestors kept livery stable.
Kept livery stable! Why, goodness gra-
cious, everybody knows 1 can trace my
family back nine gent rations, and there
are no livery stable keepers among them
on either side. They were all lawyers,
and very distinguished ones, too, I would
have them understand. Now, 1 suppose
the same person who had these two stories
published hoped to give US still more hui
initiating publicity aud had this tele-
gram sent here to New York from
Halifax, where the Prince is stationed. 1t
must have been very annoying to the Prince
for can assure you it was very unpleas-
ant for US to read such ridiculous story
in the papers, and hope you will deny it
for us.''
