BADLY MUDDLED.
The President of Steam Heating Con
many Involved in Law Suits.

The President of a Steam Heating Com
pany Involved in Law Suits.
New York, Nov. 24.-Wallace G. An
drews. president of the New York Steam
company, and until recently president
of the Standard Gas Light company, is
likely to be involved in a law suit with
the latter company over the validity OF
certain stock, amounting to about $3,-
100000, which, it is alleged, Andrews
obtained illegally from the company
while its president. He resigned two or
three weeks ago, j. A. Bostwick being
elected in his stead. 1t is said had not
Andrews resigned he would have been
expelled.
An Injunction was issued to restrain
him from selling or otherwise disposlng
of certain stock. 1t is charged that
81 ,00O, 900 of stock of the gas company,
obtained by him, is held by the New
York Steam company which he is be-
lieved to control.
Another action, it is said, has been in
stituted to recover a block OF preferred
stock held by him, and in this suit, it is
charged, he subordinated the interests
of the gas company to those OF his
steam heating company; that the un-
productive properties of the latter COM

pany, etc.
Mr. Bostwick, when seen today, said
the company was in financial difficulties
a short time ago, and said to protect
himself and others who had gone into it
with him, he offered to assume all the
debts of the company until its affairs
We're Strengthened out. Andrews, whose
schemes had far outreached his capital,
had made contracts he could not keep.
As the result, Bostwick paid out nearly
half million dollars in thirty days,
much against his advice. Five million
dollars OF stock was issued and given to
Messrs. Andrews, Spinola and Mon
heimer for distribution. Later it was
discovered that much OF this was sold for
an insufficient compensation, and the
remainder was held by the three per-
sons mentioned above. This stock, in
it's present state, is tainted, and the
books for its transfer have been closed
until matters are Strengthened out.
Bostwick says the charge that An
drews transferred useless real estate
from the steam company to the gas COM
pany is unfair. At the time of the
transfer he unquestionably intended
putting up gas plants on it.
Andrews, VIXEN seen today, refused to
talk.

BIRMINGHAM, Eng, Nov. 24.-The city
is crowded to its utmost extent with del
egates to the great conference OF the
National Union Conservative assocla-
ton. The hall was packed this morning
when the conference met. At :3O p.
m. the vast gathering was called TO
order and routine business was hastily
disposed of. Lord Windsor was elected
president for the ensuing year. A num-
ber of vice-presidents were then elected,
after which a resolution of congratula-
tion to Balfour, late chief secretary OF
Ireland, upon his promotion to the po-
sition of first lord of the treasury, was
adopted.
Resolutions looking toward the dis
establishment of the church in Wales
were then presented and adopted.
The following resolution was also
adopted: "That having regard for the
extraordinary disproportion in the rep
resentation Of England, Scotland, Wales
and Ireland in the imperial parliament,
it is most desirable that steps be taken
to redress these inequalities.
Viscount Fielding, Conservative can
didate for Rugby division, warwick
shire, offered. and the conference
adopted, the following resolution:
"That the conference is OF the opinion
that when the question of the represen-
tation of the people was reopened 6y
parliament, serious consideration should
be given the claims of women to be ad-
mitted to franchise when entitled by
ownership or occupation.
Mrs. Fawcett, the well known author
and leader of the women's suffrage
movement, in a speech said the Glad
stonians had changed their. attitude on
this question, because they were afraid
the representation OF women would
powerfully reinforce the party OF order.
Sir Albert Rollett submitted a reso-
luton that the conference regards with
satisfaction, the improved social and IN
dustrial condition Of Ireland under the
present government, and indorses the
intention of the ministers to introduce
at the next session bills for the extern
sion of localagovernment and the pro-
motion OF technical education there.
The resolution was heavily defeated.
Resolutions were adopted declaring
that the attitude of the Conservative
party toward the bona fide Unionist-
Labor candidates, should be one OF SYM
pathy and encouragement; recommend
ing the formation of labor department,
and hoping the government may see it's
way clear to the appointment OF female
factory inspectors.
The movement which resulted in de-
cision against the governments contin-
ning to maintain the Irish legislation as
the principal feature of its policy, has
been previously described. The main
object of the movement is to apply to
England the principles of the Irish land
purchase act. OF the party clamor for
that, the Conservative press now says :
.'The demand for Great Britain Agri-
cultural relief bill becomes daily more
vehement"

He Will Support Mills for the Speaker
ship of the House.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 24.-Bynum, of In
diana, has come ont in a card withdraw
ing from the speakership contest. In
his card, Bynum says: 81 never pressed
my candidacy, and only consented to
use my name until it become evident
that the contest was narrowed down be-
tween Mills and Crisp. l shall heartily
support Mills. While many candidates
are strong tariff reformers, none 80
prominently represents the position OF
the party on this question, as Mills. He
is known to the people as prominent fig
urei in the house on this question, and his
defeat would in great measure be &C
cepted as the abandonment of the issue.
Tariff is the issue upon which we must
win in 1892, and there should be no
semblance of wavering or halting at this
critical period. Unless the party stands
firmly and aggressively in favor of this
issue, the farmers of the northwest who
gave us such sweeping victories in 1890,
will become discouraged and may aban-
don the hope of success through the or
ganization of our party"

SAN Francisco, Nov. THE steamer
China brings word that the United
States steamer Marion, Captain Bartlett,
which arrived at Yokohama November
10th from Honolulu, reports that on
October 2Sth, when 800 miles off the
Japanese coast, the sea suddenly grew
rough and choppy. Huge waves rolled
about in an eccentric fashion, and the
ship was tossed about heavily. The
weather was calm, and no change in the
atmosphere preceded the phenomenon.
The officers of the vessel are confident
that the ship felt the reflex of the great
earthquake which occurred on that date.

NEEDS OF NAVY YARDS.
A Big Appropriation Wanted, for Re-
pairs and Maintenance.

pairs and Maintenance.
WASHINGTON, Nov. A.-Commander
Farquhar, chief of the naval bureau of
yards and docks, in his annual report
to the secretary of the navy, says the
appropriation for the maintenance of
repairs and preservation has been SO
limited for many years past that it has
not been possible to provide for neces-
sary repairs or to arrest the deteriora-
tion due to time and neglect. Unless
speedy relief is given many public
buildings, wharves and docks will be
past repair. The commandants at the
various navy yards and stations asked
for $46l 1892, under maintenance, and
for $Sl7, I'll under repairs and preserva-
ton, to maintain the naval establish
ments under their command. The bu-
reau reduced this to total OF 81, 900, 600,
and hopes with this amount in another
year to have everything in a creditable
condition. 1t recommends that dry
docks OF sufficient capacity to admit the
largest battle-ships be constructed at
New York, Philadelphia and Norfolk
without delay.

Wholesale Slaughter of Deer in Colo

DENVER, Colo, Nov. 24.-From a
letter received from the game warden at
Meeker, Colo, it is evident that the re-
ports of the killing of deer by Indians,
instead OF being exaggerated, are short
of the truth. He says very conserva--

would be from 1000 to 5000 head, which
the Utes slaughtered this fall. At the
present rate of killing. there will not be
