II Was Caused BY MaDipulation-The
Road Was Never More Prosperous.
81. PAUL Nov. 15-ISpecial. business
men OF North Dakota, who have had an
opportunity to see something of the un-
conference.-the evidence OF the immense
business the Northern Pacific is doing this
fall. are 1t . loss to account for the tumble
that has just occurred on Wall street, and
predictions have been made by q weil-in-
formed man, whs is in position to know
something of the mammoth business this
road IL doing, that it will be quoted as
high at least as IS by January l. Every
piece OF rolling stock is in use, and freight
has so accumulated that farmers have been
threatened with a fuel famine for want of
cars to haul it. Railroad officials state TO
the PosT-INTELLIeErcER correspondent that
the business of the Northern Pacific for
November would exceed that of any pre-
vious single month in the existence of the
road, ana that the carriage would be
s., 600. 600 for the month.
Never were so many heavily loaded
freight trains seen to pass over the line as
during this fall, and there seems no de-
crease in the passenger traffic. The
opinion prevails that the drop was not oc-
casioned by any legitimate cause, and that
the depreciation in securities would be but
temporary.

THE Barring EMBARRAssMENr.
Caused by the Shrinkage Of Argentine
Securities The Danger Il Past.

Caused by the Shrinkage Of Argentine
Securities The Danger IL Past.
NEW YORK, Nov. 15.-In an interview
today Thomas Barring said it was true the
Bank of England, the Rothschilds and
other large English banking houses had
agreed to guarantee the credit of the Bar
ings to the extent of ELL 100000.
Seligman, speaking of the condition of af-
fairs in Wall street, said he presumed that
if within q reasonable time the market
takes favorable turn here and abroad the
Barings will take up the collateral and 20
on as always. No one can say that this is
the beginning of the end of the Barings.
for the simple reason that no one knows
anything about it.
The Evening Post says: Three months
ago. when the Argentine revolution first
began TO cripple the resources of the house,
which was floating Argentine securities, an
examination OF the affairs of the Barlngs
showed clear balance of f15.0O0,0 900 over
and above all liabilities. The shrinkage of
f11O0000 or say about $55. .000, 600, in
three months shows what a tremendous
strain the London financiers have been sub
iected to. The present resusciration of the
value Of these Argentine securities Is good.
-
presidents OF New York is TO be held be-
tween now and Monday morning, to con-
sider the financial situation and determine
should justify or necessltate joint inierpo-

A Panic in Chicago.

CHICAGO, Nov. 15- Prices on change
here were strongly in sympathy with the
movement on the stock exchange. The
opening was very weak, and when the
news of the break in New York stocks was
received. in spite of the caoled announce
ment that Barring Bros. had received
heavy support. q panic set in. Every
body sold. and prices went of with such
rapidity that it was almost impossible to
do business. December wheat went down
TO ssc. May corn dropped to 50szc. and
January pork to tlL4a Then the news Of
Q better tone on New York exchsnge was
received. and q recovery followed De-
cember wheat advanced to CSC, and the

1t Is Reported That sexton Has Been
Chosen AS Leader.
LONDON, Nov. 15.-The Dublin Express
says: Parnell has informed prominent
men in the Irish Parliamentary party that
he will not lead the party in parliament
during the coming session. Sexton has
been appointed to move in parliament q
Parnellite amendment to the address In re-
ply to the speech from the throne. This
implies that he will lead the Parnellites
during the absence of their chief.
NEWARK, n. J., Nov. 15.-John Dillon, NJ.
p, was asked tonight if he thought Parnell
had resigned the leadership of his party.
He said that as the author of the report
was the Dublin Express, the organ of the
landlords and all the opponents OF the
Irish parliamentary party, be considered
the report absurd.
New YORK, Nov. ia London special
tonight says that Parnell denies that he
will retire from the leadership of the Irish
party on account of the O'Shea trial.

The Barring. Not Government Agents.

WASHINGTON CIrY, Nov. 15-(Specisl. +
The reported failure of the Barings creates
no more than passing interest in Washing
ton City. For many years that firm was
the European agent of the American gov
ernment. so far as naval and diplomatic
expenditures were concerned, and they
carried heavy balances of the United States
funds. But Morton arose. and his COM
pany is now agent of the state department
expenditures. and the Seligmans are agents
for the navy department. Secretary VIM
dom says the alances with these firms are
unusually small. When told that London
banks, including the Bank of England. had
come 10 the rescue of the Bnrings with $780,
100000 Mr. Window laughed, and said,
swell, that sizes our pile just now by q
good deal"
