the Cause.

the Cause.
NEW YoRK, Nov. 1L-The failure of
John I. Walker s. Son. importers of silks
and teas, at No. 81 Pine street, was an
nouuced to-day. The cause was the inabil-
ity of Nightingale Bros. and Knight Of
Paterson, N. j., sill k manufacturers, to liq-
uidate their liability to the firm. Accord
ing to Assignee Ryles, the Peterson firm
owes the estate of John z. Walker 81 Son
$4,000, of which $780, 900 is overdue. The
active capital of Walker & Son, for the
past two years, has been about S3O0, 900, so
that they were unable to withstand the loss
arising from the non-payTnent of Nightin-
gale Bros. and knight.
CARRIED FOR FOUR YEARS.
The firm has been carrying the heavy
load for the past four years, and whenever
the Paterson firm was unable to meet its
obligations it was taken care of. Owing
to the tight money market and suspicion
concerning "silk paper" caused by several
recent failures. the firm was unable to get
its usual accommodations, aud had to sus-
pend payment. Its liabilities are about
81, 100000. and its nominal assets about
$l,30O,000 composed OF S500,000 worth Of
accounts and bills receivable, Of which over
100000 is due from Nightingale Bros. and
Knight. The firm is composed of John T.
Walker, John w. Coombs, and Joseph
Walker. William I. Ryles is the assignee.

A DISPATCH from Chicago says
that Mr.. Ludwig Of Vienna, Aus
tria, is in that city, being the first
representative of any European
firm to arrange for an exhibition at
the Worlds Fair. In an interview
Mr.. Ludwig said:
The exhibition of Austria and Germany
will, certainly, and those of other Euro
pean countries probably, both exceed IN
size and beauty the exhibitions which
they made last year at Paris. At Paris
Germany had scarcely anything, because
of the strained political relations with
France. The Austrians have not yet for
gotten that it was the French who behead-
ed Marie Antoinette, the daughter of
Maria Therese, the Austrian Empress.
Such exhibitions as were made at Paris
by my country and Germany we're, with
very rare exceptions, those of petty
tradesmen and the smallest retailers.
They did not show our large resources
and manufactures. Austria wishes to re-
gain the standing voluntarily lost at Paris
BY sending really superb exhibit.

Barnum Defends His Ballet Girls.

Not long since the great Snowman
brought from Europe 500 ballet
dancers to form a part Of his great
show. A few Sundays ago one of
the ministers of Bridgeport took oc-
casion to say some very hard things
about these women from his pulpit,
which PIT. Barnum highly resented.
Last week, April 4th, Barnum him
self preached" upon the subject
from the pulpit of the Church of
the Redeemer in the same city.
The public had been notified and
there was hardly standing room in
the church on account of the great
crowd who had rushed to hear what
he had to say about his ballet girls.
Barnum said:
l want, in friendly wav, to preserve
in memory the name of Rev. George l..
Thompson, of Washington Park Metho-
dist Church. He spoke from his pulpit
disparagingly of the 800 ballet dancers
$50 called) which I brought from Europe.
IL don't know one of the ladies per
sonaliy and never spoke to one of them,
but l do know that every one of them
has a brother, father, husband or other
near relative travelling with her. That
the contracts which they have signed
call for their instant dismissal if they
commit any improperly or act unbecom
ing to lady, and it is believed that these
girls are as respectable and moral as the
same number of ladies in any church in
our land. Indeed, they are cburch-goers
aud many of them are church members.
This sensational preacher never saw them
except while, unbenown to him, they
were worshiping in his church and with
ing under his unjust and unchristian de-
nunciation. AS friend advise him to
discontinue circus pranks in the pulpit
of which dime museum manager would
feel ashamed.

IT is reported that the carpenters
of Chicago are on a strike and that
about 1000 are out. The strike is
for eight hours as a days work and
wages of 40 cents an hour. The
carpenter work on nearly all the
large jobs is brought to a stand
still. In some instances the brick
layers are out with the carpenters,
out of sympathy. 1t is thought it
will affect the other building trades,
in which event $4,000 men will be
obliged to be idle. President Col
die, of the Builders Exchange.
thinks it will be over a week before
the strike is settled.

The fear of microbes, which is
rapidly becoming a dominant fac
tor in modern life, has lately re-
ceived a curious illustration at a
small town in Prussian Saxony. A
municipal edict has been issued
that all BARRIERS, hair dressers and
"tonsorial artists" generally, shall.
under legal penalties, disinfect their
instruments every time after they
have been used. A practice that
ought to be adhered to in any
country.
