TOPEKA, kan.. Dec. 3 .--Senator In
gals came to Topeka to-day for the pur-
pose of holding consultation with his
managers. To-day is also the lifty-scv-
enth anniversary Of his birth, but this
fact was not known when the date for
the conference was set by Chairman

mlttee. The conference was extensively
advertised and the city is full Of Rcpub-
llcan politicians. Senator Ingalls, has
engaged a suite of rooms ut the Cone
land Hotel until after the Legislature
has adjourned. Neither Senator Ingalls,
nor Mr.. Buchan, who is managing his
campaign, would give any statement for
publlcantiOn to-day.
Hou see | have made quite Il roputa-
ton for discretion within The past two
weeks and do not wish to blast lt,n
remarked Senator Ingalls,.
Mr.. Ingalls, will remain in Topeka
tom orrow, returning TO Atchison on an
evening train. lie will return to this
city after the Legislature convcncs, to
remain until after The Senatorial cleo
ton. The Alliance leaders are consider
ably dlsconcerted by the confidence
which Senator Ingalls's managers are
displaying. Frank McGrath, president
Of the Alliance, said to-day: "The only
thing we have to fear is that some Of our
representatives may be suddenly called
upon to leave the Capitol"
State Senator w. j. Buchnn, Kansas
City, Chairman of the Republican State
Central COMMITTEE, is reported as hav-
ing said to-day to supposed supporter
Of Senator Ingalls, that the great work
before the friends of ingalls, now is to
prevent, If possible, tho Alliance
members Of the Legislature from going
into cancus. If caucus can be pre-
vented, he holds there is a fair proba-
bility ofre-clecting Ingalls,. But if the
Alliance members go into caucus there
is no possible hope the man they nomi.
nate will be elected on the first ballot.

PARIS, April pa manifesto calling for the
passage Of act making eight hours a legal
working day throughout France has been
issued by the May day committee Of working
men of this city. Seventy five thousand copies
have been distributed. The socialists have
been active fomenters Of discord at the various
preliminary meetings which have been held by
those who propose participating in the celebra-
ton Of May l. There is undoubtedly much
bad feeling among the different organizations
Of workingmen. and the prospect for har-
monious action is not of the most promising
character. The municipal authorities win
avoid assuming responsibility for the May day
proceedings.
ROME. April A-The italian government has
concluded to permit orderly meetings to be
held May day at Rome and elsewhere
throughout the country. Instructions have.
however, been issued vigorously prohibiting
workmen from forming professions. If Sc
Gitious speeches are delivered at any meeting

by the police. Tomorrow the government will

Contemplated Shipment.


Contemplated Shipment.
NEW YORK, April 24-The stock market had
a fairly steady opening this morning. but the
early trading was marked by special pressure
to sell what looked like short stock. and during
the first half hour there was an extremely
active market with dropping prices st. Paul.
Northern Pacific preferred and sugar seemed
to bear the brunt Of the attack
stocks, but less resistance was met in
Rock Island. which after q slight advance to 79
retired to 7s. The losses in the others Of the
regular list were confined to less than y per
cent. Sugar. however. fell / to 39h. After
the pressure was removed there was a period
Of hesitation and stagnation. but buying was
resumed Immediately on a larger scale
and the later dealings were marked by
renewal of the early activity, while the losses
were regained with fractions in addition in
almost every case. St. Paul, Chicago gas and
c. c. c. and st. L. led in the upward move
ment, and the advances in some cases extended
TO large fractions. At III o clock the market
was active and strong at the highest prices
reached and generally small fractions better
than first prices.
Money is easy at 3a35< per cent Tho upward
movement In the STOCK market made but
slight further progress after II o'clock, when it
was met by the announcement that 81 .6.S, GOO
gold had been ordered at she subtreasury for
shipment tomorrow and the advance was checked
ipmediately, as was also the activity which
prevailed. Wabash preferred had become the
feature Of the market and scored gain of per
cent to 25%, but it retired with the remain
dor and most of the improvement vas lost.

noon that the declining tendency ceased. The
dealings developed no special feature, however,
and ut noon the market was fairly active and
barely steady, generally at shade under first
prices.
