NEW YoRK'S SHAME.
The Sad Plight of the Noble Charity
for homeless Cats.

NEW YORK, November 12.-The Tribune
says: The Society to Befriend Domestic Ant
mails, which was formed for the relief Of
starving or homeless cats and dogs, is in
need of funds, and has issued circular
announcing that starving or homeless cats
and dogs will be received at any hour, day or
night. A messenger from the home will be
sent for animals, upon due notice." There
Is an interesting postscript which says
Contributions in support Of the society
most beneficent undertaking are most earn
estly solicited. This appeal should meet
with generous response at once. Funds are
needed to repair the home, which Is, it must
be confessed, somewhat dllapidated, and to
put up fences to keep within bounds the
once wretched but now happy animals" and
again: ut will certainly be blot upon the
people OF this municipality which time will
never erase IL they do not at once arise and
come with open hands and pocketbooks Il
the help of this most bene6cent charity"
IL Is sad and distressing fact to relate that
the messenger spoken Of in the circular is AT
present unable to perform his duties as col
leetor (of cats and dogs) for the home. A few
uaYs ago, while rescutng an unfortunate tao-
by from an ash barrel, where some absent
minded person had thrown 1t, he was sud.

cuement ketsned on CndnBes
NEW YORK, November 12.-Wall street
brokers were at their offices at an unusually
early hour this morning. On the opening of
business at the Stock Exchange at 10 o'clock
a rally took place, based entirely on more ia
vorable reports from the London market.
The scene upon the floor was just as turbu-
lent as at yesterdays opening. The opening
sales showed an improvement in prices. The
feature Of the trading was the dumping out
Of heavy blocks Of North American Compa-
ny stock, most OF which was sold under the
rule for the account OF Decker, Howell q Co.
The Offering price was 193, but within half
an hour after the opening 1t was selling at
174. Other securities which were sold under
the rule for the account Of the same firm
during the first hour Of business included
Union Pacific, Northwestern, Louisville 81
Nashville, Northern Pacific preferred and
common and Rock Island.
Benjamin K. True, stockbroker has failed.
1t is estimated that the liabilities of the
brokerage firm OF Decker, Howells 4 Co. Is
S10,000, 900 in round numbers. Their assets
consist mainly of Northern Pacific and North
American Company securities, and the state
ment Is made by Mr.. Decker that If the cred
itors use good judgement these securities are
sufficient to pay every claim against them.
They have been chiefly interested in the Viii
lard stocks. The firm deny the statement
that Mr.. Willard is involved in their suspen-
sion.
Charles NJ. Whitney & Co. estimate their
liabilities at about 81, 100000.
The failure Of j. @. WalcOtt & Co., brokers,
has been announced on the Stock Ex-

MONTREAL. November PA despatch
from Rimouski, the mail landing point in the
Gulf of st. Lawrence, says that the steam
>hip Vancouver of the Dominion line passed
there last night, without her captain. She
was a week overdue, aud few details could
be learned while she was landing the Eng
lish mails.
1t seems that her voyage was the worst
ever experienced. Captain Lindall, with
two of the quartermasters, was washed off
the bridge during hurricane on the Banks,
and many of the crew were injured.
The vessels decks were swept, and every
thing movable was carried away.
A later despatch says that the bridge,
chartroom and wheelhouse. with the people
in them, were all swept overheard by the
seas, and all were drowned.
captain Lindall was first known in Port
land as captain In the Allan service. He
afterwards entered the employ Of the Do
minion line and rose to a foremost position,
being given command of the Vancouver
when she was built five or six years ago. He
had many friends here, to whom he was en-
deared by many acts of kindness.l

Reported To Have Acquired Control
of tho Union Pacific.

New YORK. November 12.-The Times
says that jay Gould has secured control of
the Union Pacific Railway Company. In
terested with him in the deal are William
and John d. Rockefeller. Gould says he
will probably take the presidency Of the
road himself. President Charles Francis
Adams, he says, has been managing the
road in an entirely unsatisfactory manner,
and many of the largest stockholders deter
mined his administration must cease The
Rockefellers and Gould have secured large
amount of the stock. "Messrs. Dillon, Ames
and other old stockholders he says, "are
anxious to cooperate with us, and indeed
have invited us to assume control, direction
and management of the property, and we
have accepted"
George Gould refused to talk regarding the
report.
Russell Sage expressed the belief that
Gould had obtained the control Of the road
and added that it was just what was needed
to straighten out the railroad situation.
Boston, November 12.-President Adams
said today regarding the reported cquisition
of the Union Pacific by Jay Gould: II am
absolutely ignorant of the Ialleged facts in
the reported interview, and greatly ques-
ment attributed to him. The Union Pacific
at peace with ali the world"
Two directors who were seen also discred-
it the story.
What the Wizard Says.
New YORK, November 12-Jay Gould
this afternoon said he had had no interview
with Rockefeller or Frederick Ames in re-
gard to the control of the Union Pacific
Railroad Company. He said il aLy one
would go among the stockholders Of the
company he would find much dissatisfaction
with the present management of the road.
He thought it not unlikely the stockholders
would. before long. bring about change in
the methods OF managing the property,
which would result in great benefit to that
road and American RAILWAYS generally.
