! And the Old Man Who Came All the
Way From New York to Present 1t.

Patrick Rowan, an old man from Haverstraw,
Rockland county, N. Y, arrived here this morn
ing on an early train and soon found his way to
the White House. He had with him a cane
which he said he wanted to present to the
President. 1t was an odd looking stick
with thirty-six large knots on it and
tied about with two dozen bows of red, white
and blue and orange colored ribbon. The old
man. it appeared by his rambling talk, i'm
agined that by an arrangement between John
Kelly, the late Tammany chief, and himself
Russell Harrison had been placed in charge of
the poor department and he was anxious
to see that gentleman. Sergt. johnson took
charge of him and escorted him to police
headquarters, where Sanitary Officer Frank
was introduced to him as Russell Harrison.
Rowan was glad to make his acquaintance.
81 AM AN IRISH WARRIOR"
he said, "but am for America. was in Ire
land two months ago, but wouldn't live there
if the queen would give me the whole country"
The cane, he said, came from Africa and was
seven hundred years old; the name
several million dollars had been bet on it in
New York. The old man fired off several other
romances, and said that he had
knocked down two policemen this morn
ing. He told Sanitary Officer Frank
that when he left home the people made
fun of him and his children wanted him to re-
main there, but when he gets back he can tell
them that he had breakfast with the President
and that his cane WAS accepted. He left the
cane in charge Of MIR. Frank, who, he thinks, is
Russell Harrison, with directions to give it to
the President and wanted two flags to carry
home with him to show that he had won a VIC
tory. The sanitary officer purchased him q
ticket to his home.

bMR. BLAINE IN GOOD HEALTH.
Why He was Absent From the Cabinet
| Meeting Yesterday.

The absence of Mr.. Blaine from yesterdays
cabinet meeting and his continued absence
from the State department from day to day
have encouraged the belief among some
people that he has not rallied from
the shock of his sons death and is seri-
ously aiing himself. This is entirely untrue. as
a STAR reporter was told this morning by a
gentleman who has an intimate acquaintance
with the Secretary. He is in good health and
is rapidly picking up the loose threads Of his
work, which he was obliged to drop when
Walker died He does not go to the depart
ment, however, except when his pres
ence there is necessary, and he
has taken to attending to his
duties at his home on Lafayette square,
whittier his private secretary, Mr.. Dent, has re-
moved his typewriter and the other para
phernalia of his work. The foreign ministers
have fallen into the habit of calling at the
house instead of the department and this
morning the Secretary had long conference
with Sir Julian Pauncefote, the British MINIS
ter, in his parlors
The reason for the Secretary's absence from
the cabinet meeting yesterday was that he
spent the morning and portion of the after
noon In discussion with the American dele
gates to the Pan-Amercan congress of the pro-
gram and policy to be followed in the delibera-
tions OF that body.
Mrs. Coppinger. the Secretarys eldest daugh-
ter, WAS seized last night with a slight attack of
. malarial complaint, but considerably
better this morning. No alarm is felt as to her
general health

From Wall Street TODAY.

New YORK, Jan. 29.-The stock market this
morning was less active for the general list,
but in sugar refineries, Louisville and Nash
vile and New England the animation of the
past few days was fully equaled. While the
market failed to exhibit the strong tone lately
SO prominent prices as a rule were well held
within narrow limits. Sugar was the feature
of the market, and opening down per cent at
62 it rapidly sold off to 591z in the first few
minutes, when 1t was taken in hand and later
brought up to a fraction above its opening
figure. New England followed the same
course, but in a small way, as its extreme fiuc-
tuation was less than l per cent Louisville
and Nashville opened off q per cent at s91S,
but was quickly advanced, though it afterward
reacted a fraction. The general Inst developed
a weaker tone toward the end of the hour and
prices went back to shade below first figures
in most cases. The most marked movement
was in the Chicago and East Illinois stocks, the
common dropping from Sc to 3315 and the pre-
ferred from "a to 50. At IL o'clock the market
was fairly active and heavy to weak, generally
at something below the opening prices.

Occupying Valuable Space in the Treas
ury Departments

The Secretary of the Treasury today trans
mitted to the Senate a report of the chief clerk
of the department with regard to the accumu-
latlon OF old and useless papers in
the department. The Secretary recommends
that early action be taken by Congress, as
the transaction of the public business is re-
tarded because of the accumulation Of papers
now useless in the corridors and file rooms.
Mr.. Bracket, the chief clerk, says that the
crowded condition of tho files space in the
Treasury building is becoming very serious
matter and one calling for immediate attention.
An appropriation of $4,000 is asked for to
pay the expenses which must be incurred by
the removal of the papers in question from the
attic and other stories to the basement where
they can be either delivered to the purchaser
in case of sale or destroyed if it be deemed i'm
proper to sell any portion of such papers.

road officials state that the only OBJ
struction now is about foot OF
hard trampled snow and ice which covers the
rails for considerable distance. This must be
removed by picks and shovels. The officials
think the blockaded trains will reach here to-
day. The trains have two weeks mail The
high water has gone down all over the state

paired. Great damage has been done 20 roads
