The Johnston Obs,uuie. Coucluds,,.

When the body of Gen. Johnston arrived at
Union station, Baltimore a. 1:So o'clock yes
serday afternoon a good-sized delegation Of
old confederate soldiers, with q sprinkling Of
those who wore the blue, were waiting to re-
ceive it. 1t wns taken from the baggage car
ard wheeled across the station on a truck.
from which il was lifted by u dozen pair Of
willing hands. The casket was carried to the
hearse by Messrs. James L. McLane and Loui,
Mcl.ane and the undertaker's men through two
long lines OF ex-confederates headed by Adjt
Gen James Howard, with Col. J. LYLE Clark
acting as adjutant- The men lifted their hats
reverently as the casket passed before them,
and after it had been placed in the hearse and
carried of to the cemetery they gathered about
the station in little groups and spoke lovingly
OF the old general. Messrs. James L. McLane
Louis McLane and Allan McLane, IT,, followed
Gen. Johnston's body to Greenmount cemetery,
II. VI. Chambers and James Mexico of the Mary
land line also went TO the cemetery and assisted
in placing the body in the mausoleum. whence
il will be inferred in the grave Gen. Johnston
had himself prepared at some future day.

SHE WANTS DIVIDENDS,
Mrs. Grant Dissatisfied With the nyestinent
of &5SOOO for Her


A strange misunderstanding has arisen be-
tween Mrs. Gen. Grant and Wallace c. An
drews of New York in relation to the invest
ment Of $4,000 which Mrs. Grant gave to Mr..
Andrews to place for her in Standard Oil
stock. Mrs. Grant has written to John ID.
Rockefeller, saying that some three years ago
she asked Mr.. Andrews to invest the money as
stated above, but that he replied that he was
able to sell his Standard OIL stock and was
going into much bigger thing ami he advised
her that there would be great opportunity
for the investment of her money to a better
advantage.
The scheme which Mr.. Andrews referred to
was the New York Steam Heating Company
and Mrs Grant says she got the impression
the Standard Oil magnates were behind the
steam company as its financial hackers. On
this understanding Mrs. Grant says she gave
Andrews her money to invest III the steam
company. Mrs. Grants object in writing
TO MIR. Rockefeller to ask him. she said,
to please be good as to change her
stock III the steam company for Standard Oil
stock, as she was tired OF waiting for dividends
from the other. Mr.. Kockefelier made haste
20 assure Mrs. Grant that he waS powerless in
the matte.
Mr.. Andrews version of the story has not
yet been learned. II Is quite Likely that tie
Misunderstanding between Mrs. Grant and Dir.
Andrews may yet be referred to tie courts for
settlement

THE FIGHT IN CHICAGO.
Senator-Elect Palmer Asked to Keep His
Hands OF.

Carter Harrison in Chicago last night made
bis first appearance in public since receiving
formal nomination for the mayoralty. 1t
was at Central Music Hail, and the place was
crowded with his adherents. The meeting
proved to be one that is likely to be memora-
BILE in Illinois politics and indirectly in ma
tional affairs perhaps also Mr.. Harrison
savagely denounced his fellow-democrat and
opposing candidate. Mayor Cregier, declaring
the latter, not himself, was standing in the
way Of party harmony.
The speaker declared he had that morning
written to Mr.. Cregier proposing that both
withdraw and a neutral candidate be selected
for mayor. In morning paper, however, he
had read that United States Senator-elect
Palmer was coming to Chicago to assist in
Mayor Cregiers reelection. Under such cir
cumstances the speaker said the offer to with
draw might be regarded a Weakening, and
he instantly resolved by the eternal to stay in
the fight to the end" The people resented
federal meddling in local concerns and John
VI. Palmer, now panoplied as United States
Senator, had no right to come to Chicago to
interfere between two sections of the demo-
cratic party. Mr.. Harrison, in conclusion,
emphsticaly denied intriguing in his own in
terest against Palmer's election as Senator, and
declared he had given Gen. Palmer undeviat-
ing support.
Resolutions proposed by ex-Congressman
Frank LAWYER, asking Gen. Palmer to refrain
from interference, were adopted.
Senator Palmer was seen last night by an
Associated Press representative within fifteen
minutes after the adoption of the resolutions
directed to him and advised of the action of
the Harrison meeting in Chicago formally re-
questlnG him 20 stay away from that city and
not interfere with home rule"
Being asked what reply ho had to make to
such resolution, Senator Palmer replied: ''At
present have no answer to make to such
resolution. 1presume that copy of the reso-
lution will be sent me by wire or mail After /
have received an official communication an
nouncing the passage of such q resolution will
send my reply to the parties sending the com
munication. and they may, if they see fit, fur
nish it for publication. This il all have to say

ON THE ARCTIC CIRCLE.
Adventures of an Englishman in the Frozen
Regions of North America

Says special dispatch from Winnipeg:
Washberton Pike, an English explorer, has
just returned from; the arctic circle. Leaving
Calgary in June, 1889. Mr.. Pike proceeded to
Athabasca Landing and from there to Fort
Resolution, on Slave river. Here ne secured the
services of two Indian guides and helpers and
started for the barren lands in search of musk
OK, caraboo and other large game. He had a
very successful hunt. killing about forty musk
OK and as many caraboo as they were in posi-
ton to handle. On that trip Mr.. Pike went as
far north Fish river. this being the river on
which Frankiins first expedition to the north
pole was lost. He experienced many adven-
lures. The party was lost Tor fourteen DAYS
last fall and endured terrible suffcrings. They
started to cross the Yukon range Of mountains
to the Pacific coast. After journeying for
some twelve days they found that instead of
being. as they supposed, on Mcleod river they
were on what atterward turned out to be the
Nation. Here the guides admitted they were
lost. and nothing remained for the party to do
but retrace thei' Steps. which they did with
but enough provisions for a few days. In two
Gays they were ont Of food. and to make n long
story short, they starved for fourteen DAYS.
Mr. Pike absolute. refuses say anything of
their tcrtures during this time. but many facts
were CLEANED from those who saw them on
their reEuin to Inc rapids. and who we're COM
PEELED 10 lee,i them as they would babe.
A. an example of the terrible state Of affairs
some hundreds of miles were trampcd with bare
feet Oh ice, AID their frozen condition when
rescued was simply terrible. while some of the
party were SO Ieduced from cold an hunger as
to be totally helpless.
When asked to describe the barren lands NJ:
Pike said that ii was immense tract Of bar
rem rock on which grew kind of moss ard
shrub, on which deer that Kun by .housands
feed and appear to be very fond OF it.
There are numerous lakes among rocky
bluffs whose waters freeze in the cold season
to the depth o!from seven 10 nine feet Hereports
temperatures as low rs sixty degrees il tie
winter, but the summer months July and
August. he SAYS are very hoI. Six months dur
ing the rear the sun never shines on these
barren parts.
Mr.. Pike reports moose very scarce, but SAYS
there are large numbers of musk OK and thou
sands of cGraboo deer, the latter taking to The
woods in winter. Dir. Pike Is he onit white man
who has trod the pc IN OF the Franklin suffer

was almost entirely done on FOOT, dog trains
being used for the carrying OF provisions and
