It IL Received with General Satisfaction
the House Of Comm0ua

H 10 Hecetveo with General Satisfaction II
the House Of Commons.
The first lord of the treasury Mr.. William
Henry Smith, in the house of commons Mon
day moved that the Boring sea bill. the pro-
visions Of which were printed In THE STAR on
Saturday, be read a second time
Mr.. Smith said that the bill dealt with q aues-
ton of urgency, and was promoted with de-
sire that arrangements of an amicable character
should DO made to settle the dispute. He was
sure that all parties would agree that II
was better that tho difference be deter.
mined by friendly arbitration than by
more barbarous methods. ["Hear, hear ~
Sir William Vernon Harcourt agreed with
Mr.. Smith that a serious misunderstanding be-
tween England and the United States would be
n great calamity. The government would al
ways receive the support Of the opposition in
referring international questions to arbitration.
The Boring sea dispute seemed, above all
others, to be one lending itself to arbitration,
therefore he had nothing to say except to ex-
press satisfaction with the course adopted.
MI. Chamberlain said he heard with great
satisfaction the arrangement obtained from the
United States. MIR. Smith had only referred to
the assent of Russia for close time He under
stood the German flag also had been seen in
Boring sea. He hoped the government would
ascertain what was the position of maritime
nations toward the question. He wanted to
know whether the subjects for arbitration we're
agreed upon with the United States, and whether
that power had withdrawn its startling claims
TO the almost exclusive possession Of Boring
sea- Would the arbitration be confined to
precautions to preserve the seals2
Mr.. George Osborne Morgan, Sir George
Campbell, Sir George Baden Powell and Mr..
Bryce approved the issue of tine negotiations
The bill was then read the second time.

THE GAME OF BACCARAT.
How 1t 10 PIayed-Mismanagemen &
Tranby Croft.

The game Of baccara or baccarat, which Is
the talk of the civilized world in connection
with the English scandal in which the Prince
OF Wales has been involved is similar to the
familiar game of ''twenty-one." 1t is played
with ordinary playing cards. Any number of
players may participate, and as many packs Of
cards may be used as necessary, the number
being increased to correspond with the number
OF players. One member of the party is Sc
lected to act as banker. He deals out the cards
from box similar to a cigar box, after they
have been shufled. The face cards each count
ten. and the others according to the number of
their spots. After the bets have been made the
banker deals two cards to each of the players,
including himself, but the other players must
receive their cards before the banker is served.
The aim of the players is to make the numbers
O. 10. 30, or as nearly those as possible, 8, IS
and %. Any player is at liberty either to
stand. or to be content with the two cards
first dealt or to call for more at the risk of ex-
ceeding go. when his stake is forfeited to the
dealer. If. after the first distribution of two
cards to each. any player has a ''naturaT-that
is. a sum making 9, next in value. 19-he de-
clares it WINS, and the banker pays all who hold
superior hands to his own. and claims from
those holding inferior hands. The players
stake their money separately, there being, in
fact, as many separate games in progress as
there are players, and the spectators may
wager their money on any of them, all Of which
must be accepted by the banker.
Sir William Gordon Cumming is alleged to
have resorted TO a form OF cheating known as
the ''pcussctte that is. adding to the stake
when the banker has lost and decreasing it
when he has won. Now, had the table been
better conducted it would have been impossi-
BILE for this to have occurred. Prior to the
banker making start he states the amount in

Minister Douglass Furnishes the First OIL
cial Information in Regard to 1t.
The State Department has received a
short cablegram from Minister Douglass at
Hayti, giving the first official information rela-
tive to the attempted uprising against the
Hyppolite government in Hayti. The dispatch
stated that a revolution had been attempted,
but that it had been suppressed. In the opin-

Gently if the instruction has been SO quickly
suppressed as late dispatches indicate it will
not be long before it breaks out again. as the
present government has never been popular

that the double dealing of President Hippo

Mole has alienated the moral support of the
United States from him instructions are ex-

a naval vessel to Port au Prince. and none will
be sent there unless one side or the other inter
feres with American rights. Port au Prince is
one OF the most unhealthy ports in the world at
this season. and the department will not en-
danger the lives of officers and men by sending
them there unless some immediate necessity
exists. The only vessel anywhere near there

Navassa, where she will remain until the disaf-

KEYSTONE BANK AFFAIRS.
Councilman Etting of Philadelphia Dissatis
fed With the Treasury Department.

Councilman Etting of Philadelphia Dissatis-
fed With the Treasury Department.
In the Philadelphia city councils investiga-
ton of ex-City Treasurer Bardsey's methods
yesterday Granville B. Haines a director in the
keystone Bank, testified that there had been an
overissue of stock amounting to 200 shares
when the late John Lucas was president. Coun-
Gilman Citing offered resolution that Presi-
dent Harrison be asked to investigate the con-
duct of the Treasury Department in connection
with the keystone Bank.
Mr.. Etting made a most vigorous speech in
defense of his motion. He said: Through no
skill or energy on the part of the United States
officials the Treasury Department became
aware OF the Keystone rOttcnness, yet for
ninety days thereafter the bank was allowed to
remain open and the city and citizens Of Phila-
delphia were invited to deposit their money.
1t matters not whether the assets now are more
or less. Some people who had every oppor-
tunity to know the story of the rotten bank
had every chance to get out while other peo-
pie who could not know the story had every
chance to get in 1t is the most extraordi-
nary action on the part Of the general gov
ernment that 1 ever heard Of. Even If
our city treasurer had been honest he
might for all that was done by the United
States authorities have continued to deposit,
for no notice, no inquiry, no warning came to
put him on guard or any other city official on
guard. The salary of Marsh was even con-
tinued at the bank and every appearance was
held out that the bank was sound during all
this time; that the general government knew,
by confession, of its rottenness. 1t is time we
should make move to right the oity's wrongs
and impress upon the authorities at Washing
ton that there must be some very active as
surances Of a remedy for these abuses of power
on the part of the general government"
One other member of the committee voted
with MIR. Fitting and four against him. SO the
mo a rN..I
eral impression, however, is that it will be re-
viewed shortly.

The Financial Situation In Brazil.

Inc FinnntiaI Sftuation In Brazil.
The bureau of American republics furnishes
this: Whether the views recently expressed by
Baron Bleichroder in regard to the financial
condition of Brazil were based on an accurate
knowledge of the commercial and monetary
movement in that country during the last few
months or upon a consideration of the status
of her bonds in the European markets as com.
pared with that Of other South American coun.
tries certain it is that the former amply Justify
the fiatterinS opinion of the eminent German
financier. Competent judges estimate the ex
portation for 1891 ut not less than $500, 600 900
which with the ruling high prices for the lead
ing articles Of export must render the financia
condition Of Brazil beyond all question excep
tionally sound and easy.
