PHENIx MUTUAL LIFE.

Several Hundred Policy Holders Hold
 a Meeting at Hartford Yesterday.
 HARTFORD, Dec. 3. - Several hundred policy holders of the Phoenix Mutual Life Insurance company met to-day to vote on accepting legislative permission to buy the capital stock. After long debate lasting from 10 o'clock to after o'clock resolu- tion passed to pay $250 share for the stock from the surplus of the company. The syn dicate of directors, who have held the con- trolling interest in trust since last spring, at once sold it in accordance with the terms of the trust to the company and it stands now in the name of Insurance Commissioner Fyler. who as trustee of the policy holders, will tomorrow elect fifteen directors, all of whom must be participating policy holders. During debate Vice-President Holaombe read letter recently sent by him to Insur- ance Commissioner Fyler in which in the name of all the directors he offered to submit to legal tribunal the question whether divi- dends heretofore paid stockholders in excess of six per cent. were legal, and if illegal to refund them at once. The law authorizing the purchase of stock gave no power to the insurance commissioner beyond certifying that the price agreed to be paid did not im- pair the company's surplus, and he testified this fact as to this purchase. Amendments
 fixing the price of the shares at $50 and $150 were lost. The final vote fixing $250 was passed-yes, 4,151 policy holders with ST. 745, 497 of insurance; no, 53 policy holders

 Sailing of the Galena and Kearsarge
 The Dolphin Remains Behind.
 NEW YORK, Dec. s3.-The Galena and Kearsarge, Uncle Sam's old timers, sailed for Hayti on their secret mission this morning without the trim and naughty Dolphin. The Dolphin had not received sailing orders when the time for departure came and will remain behind. The old Kearsarge looked first rate. The Galena few Admiral Gherardi's flag from her masthead. Both ships had housed their mainmasts and foremasts previous to departure in order to pass under the Brook lyn bridge without scraping the lower cables.
 The first port the fleet will make will be Cape Haytien. Then, Admiral Gherardi said last night, the ships will stop at Port au- Prince, where the admiral, as Q representa- tive of tbe United States, will confer with Minister Douglas and President Hyppolite. The following three or four months will be spent by the cruisers among the West Indies. Thence they will sail northward. The main object of this cruise, it is said, is to make arrangements with the Haytien government for the establishment of @ coalfng station at Mole St. Nicholas.
 ters her officers were royalty entertained by c tien. The officers have planned a surprise | for her in the shape of a silver bowl they
 have purchased to present her.
 The fleet should arrive at Cape Haytien by l Sunday.
 l If the Dolphin sails tomorrow she can | overtake the Kearsarge and the Galena be l fore they get to Cape Haytien.

MIR. GLADSTONH,S SPEECH.

He Inspires HIS Hearers at Man.
 chester With Enthusiasm - His Ex-
 position of the Liberal Policy -
 Less Crime iR Ireland Than In Eng
 land.
 LONDON, Dec 3.-Mr. Gladstone inspired great enthusiasm into his hearers at Man. chester by his definite expedition of the Liberal policy to-day.
 He said Ireland is the leading question of the day; and that the Tories would have been converted to the Liberal view of the subject by this time but for the dissendent Liberals. The split in the Nbera party, he said, would not have co cured except for the personal animositie' of some tories and their allies who desired more to form national party than to do political justice. He severely arraigned the unionist leaders on this point. There was, he said, less crime in Ireland than in England. He was of opinion that the country had clearly expressed the desire that there should be . change in the administra. ton of Ireland, and the Liberals might look to the future with confidence. He was cheered with great spirit.
 Mir. Gladstone quoted the recent speeches of Lord Salisbury and the Marquis of Hart ineton as evidence that the Unionist party is now forming plans in anticipation of de- cisive defeat when the time shall come for a general appeal to the nation.
 He concluded by giving his warmest thanks to the comrades who had stood by him in 6 time of adversity amounting to discomfture, batting no jot of their confidence in noble effort on behalf of noble and generous people.

A Statement Of Estimates, Appropr1a-
 lions and Expenditures for the NIain-
 tenance of the Government for
 1S9O-91-The Republican Senatorial
 Caucus.
 WAsHINGToN, Dec. 3.-The clerks of the committees on appropriations of the Senate and House have prepared comparative statement of estimates, appropriations and expenditures for the maintenance of the government for the fiscal years 1890 and 1891, from which it appears that the net in- crease of the estimates for 1891 over those for the current year is $20. .s67, ,16s, and the net increase of the estimates for the next year over the appropriations for this year is $36, ,092, ,112. The total estimates of regular and permanent annual appropriations for the next fiscal year are $4e6, ,s43, ,3t5, while the total revenues are estimated at $450, Al, ,337, showing an excess of estimated revenues over estimated appropriations next year of $43. .5n ,022. The net surplus for the press ent year is placed at $53. .532, ,s11, or $9,961,- 4S9 more than the estimated surplus for the next fiscal year. This prospective decrease in the surplus is stated, too. without ref- erence to the possibility of the enact- men of river and harbor bill, for in estimates submitted by the Secretary of the Treasury there is a notable omission of the ordinary provision for river and hsr- bor improvements. For the preservation of l existing works the sum of $237, ,00O is asked, | while the report of the chief of engineers says l $38, ,532, $50 can be profitably expended next | year in these improvements. The statement above quoted differs materially from that prepared by the Treasury department and exhibited in the book of estimates just issued for the reason that the postal receipts and revenues are differently treated by the treas urer and the appropriation committees. At the meeting of the Republican senator 1 ial caucus this afternoon the reorganization of committees was the only matter under | discussion. After an interchange of opinion 1t was decided to continue the caucus com

Coughing

s Natures effort to expel foreion snh. 1 stances from the bronchial nassages Frequently, this causes infiammation and the need of an anodyne. No otber expectorant or anodyne is equal to Ayers Cherry Pectoral. It assists Nature in ejecting the mucus, allays irritation, induces repose, and is the most popular of all cough cures.
 "Of the many preparations before the public. for the cure of colds, coughs, bronchitis, and kindred diseases, there 1ssnone, within the range of my experi- ence, so reliable as Ayers Cherry Pec- toral. For years was subject to colds, followed by terrible coughs. About four years ago, when so afflicted, I was ad- viSed to try Ayers Cherry Pectoral and to lay all other remedies aside. | did so, and within @ week was we'll of my cold and cough. Since then I have always kept this preparation in the house, and feel comparatively secure" Mrs. L. l.. Brown, Denmark, Miss. [
 "A few years ago took severe cold which affected my lungs. I had ter- rible cough, and passed night after night without sleep. The doctors gave me up. I tried Ayers Cherry Pectoral, which relieved my lungs, induced sleep, and afforded the rest necessary for the recovery of my strength. By the con- tinual use of the Pectoral, 8 permanent cure was effected. .'-Horace Fairbrother, Rockingham, Vt
