EXCHANGE REVIEW,

ExCHANGE REVIEW.
NEW YORK, June 30.-The feeling in Wall
street today was decidedly more hopeful, owing
in great part to liberal purchases by London
and the consequent forcing of portion of the
short interest to cover. The near approach of
the liberation of a vast amount of funds, of
which great portion must find its way into
speculative channels, was not without influence
The easier condition of the foreign markets
gave promise that after all no further shipments
of gold would be made this week. The opening
displayed a marked change in sentiment since
yesterday first prices being all fractionally
higher The market closed quiet but stroog at
top figures.

1t Works Both Ways.

New YORK, May 17.-That the boycott
of the Eastern railroads against the Chi
cago and Alton would prove an ignomin-
Gus failure has long been granted, but the
Board of Rulings has continued to protest
that nearly all of the original sixty COM
panies which signed the death warrant
against commissions were maintaining
solid front. Several of the companies,
after issuing the order to their trainmen 10
boycott the tickets and baggage of Alton
passengers, issued a second order quietly
annulling the first, and directing their
trainmen not to disturb such people There
is now evidence that every one of the trunk
lines. except possibly the Pennsylvania
and New York Central, are ignoring the
ukase of the Board of Rulings. In other
words. the boycott is dead letter. One
instance is gwen where Louis Seckel and
daughter passed the boycott all right, but
an over conscientious Buffalo man detained
their baggage. AS a consequence Mr..
Seckel and daughter missed their steamer
for Germany, and the West Shore will
likely pay damages for observing the boy
cott they did not intend to.

more ago created quite scandal at

morning. Captain Rowland testified
that his wife was In the habit of using
household utensils, such as forks, pitch =
ers and that sort of thing, in trying to
persuade him to do as she desired. He
denied ever treating her in any but
proper manner and said that his church
sent her money each week, averaging
Sl4 week.
The church fed her sumptuously and
yet he had to leave the place because
his wife acted so badly that she broke
up his meetings. He denied tar and
feathers were ready for him If he did
not leave the place, but said that he
went because the mission was broken
up. The case was continued a week,
and some lively testimony will probably
be introduced on both sides.

the Hudson river at West Seventy-first

New YORK, May 1.-THE charges
brought by Father Ignatius against the
orthodoxy of the Rev. r. Heber New
ton. D. D., rector of All-Soul's Parish,
this city, have resulted in bringing out
petition to Bishop Potter, Of New
York, requesting that an inquiry be in
stituted to ascertain the truth OF the
rumors respecting the teaching OF the
gentleman. The two points that are to
be submitted to the Bishop are his
alleged denial of the miraculous concep-
tion of Christ, and of the resurrection
of the human body of Jesus. The petit
tion is signed by nearly all of the high
dignatarles of the Protestant Episcopal
Church in the diocese, and forces the
Bishop into course in which silence is

SHAKESPEARE REALLY WROTE THIS TO
GOVERNOR NICHOLS.
Tao Mayor Of New Orleans Replies to CoTte's
Letter to tie Grand Jury, and Specifies the
Points Wherein the Italian Consul IS at
Fsult-Recali Demanded.

New ORLEANS, La, May l7.-Yes-
terday afternoon Mayor Shakespeare
addressed the following letter to Gov
ernor Nichols:
"Under the date of May 6. 1891, the
consul of Italy at this port, Mr.. p.
COrte, saw fit to address to W. H. Chat
fee, foreman of the grand jury, then in
session, very remarkable letter. Your
excellency being resident of New Or
leans, is fully aware of the fact that ever
since the assassination OF Supt. of Police
Hennessey on October IL. 1890, the
papers have teemed with all manner OF
vaporings from Mr.. p. Corte in the
shape of interviews, etc. For these re-
ported sayings he could not properly be
held, as an official, responsible, and
since credited with one statement be-
fore another was made, either exactly
the opposite Of, or largely qualifying
the first, his vagarieS and busterings
were regarded by all but his own peo-
pie as either aughable or contemplate.
This letter OF May 6, sent to the fore
man Of the grand jury was very properly
returned by that body to the writer as
being impertinent. Besides being i'm
pertinent, the letter contains state
ments absolutely false and beyond queS-
tion known TO be false by Mr., Corte. II,
as the Italian consul, Mr.. COrte has
ever had any usefulness here he has
outlived it and has become through his
own acts, not only an unacceptable per-
son, but an element of danger 10 this
community in that by his utterances he
incites his.infammable people to riot or
sullen opposition to the laws and Gus
toms of country they have sought as
an asylum. Being the depoSitor, as he
confesses himself to be, Of criminal
secrets relating to the individuals of
his race resident among us, he
refuses to give to the department
OF police and justice the information he
has and thereby increases the danger TO
the community from these criminals.
For these reasons have the honor to
request that you ase Of the honorable
Secretary OF State at Washington the
recall of Consul Corte's exequator by the
President. This application would have
been sent to you sooner but for the reason
that / desire 10 place in your hands, to
accompany your note to the Secretary
of State, a report made TO the Mayer
and Council by the Committee OF Fifty.

knights of Labor Ia 1t.
CINCINNATI, O., May 17.-The coming
week will bring to this city political
gathering of unique form, forit has no par
ty basis Originally, it was called by m IN
bers of the Ocala, Fla, Alliance convention,
addressed to all who have stood up for in
dependent political action. About 20 per-
sons from seventeen States signed this
call. Some of the original signers of the
call enlarged the representation so as to
include the American Federation of Labor
trades unions and trades assemblies, the
federation Of railway employees, and the
nationalists by their representatives
Many well-known labor leaders and
economists are here. Stragglers are also
here from Maine, Kentucky, Texas, Ten
nessee, Minnesota and other States, but
the full delegations will not begin to arrive
until tomorrow. While it is anticipated
that two thirds of the States will be repre-
sented, yet two of them, Kansas with her
five hundred and Ohio with nearly as many
more, will control.
There are two elements with widely
divergent intention. One is desirous that
the conference shall bring new party into
existence. These are mostly from the
North and West. The Southerners, on the
other hand, deprecate hasty action and
urge that it would be more polite simply
to reaffirm the views enunciated in the
ST. Louis and Ocala platforms.
1t is an open secret that the Knights OF
of Labor men who will be reinforced to-
morrow by General Master Workman
Powderly, Lecturer Ralph Beaumont and
John Devlin, of the Executive Board who
are here to fight for time, with the view Of
putting off definite action until after the
meeting of the Farmers Alliance in Feb
ruary next.
Either Congressman Simpson or Senator
PETER will, it is reported, be the perma-
nent officer
