NEW YORK. Nov. 27.-Edwin M. Field,
Daniel l.. Lindley, John frederick Wechers
and Herman G. Helmus composing the firm
OF Field, Lindley, Wechers & Co., bankers
and brokers. assigned to-day without pref
erence. The failure was announced at the
produce exchange at noon. but the grain
market was only slightly affected. The
house is an old one but has of late been
somewhat restricted in its dealings. The
failure is attributed to the rise in cotn at
New York and Chicago. Assignee Gould
when seen at the firms Office this afternoon,
said: 1.-The assignment was made for this
reason: Edward M. Field, senior member
of the firm, has evidently gone distracted.
His illness resembles paresis and is due to
overwork and the great responsibility vest
ing upon him as manager of the finances OF
the firm. His mother died last Mon
day and this seemed to bring to a climax
his mental trouble, which some of his
friends detected two years ago. A .physi-
clan told me a few days ago that Field was
not all right in his mind"
Judge Dillon was unable to learn to-
night the disposition made OF certain

Later it was reported that the securities

tion to prevent their delivery. Numerous
rumors are ahoat that the firms indebted
ness ia all the way from $1.000.00O to
81, 500, ,0OO but no correct statement could
be secured through the Office firm. One of
the partners denies that corn had anything
special to do with tho difficulty, and says
their matters are disarranged, and they do
not know how they stand, considering
which the firm thought best to send out
notice of inability to meet their obliga-
tions. On the other hand prominent oper-
ators in the corn trade say they know the
firm had hard time getting through trans
actions in that staple.

night called to consider whether any steps
should be taken to test the eligibility of
Calvin s. Brice to the United States sena-
torship on the ground that he il not a resi-
dent Of Ohio n letter was read from Sena-
tor Sherman stating that Brice's certificate
from the governor would probably be con-
sidered prima facie evidence of his title to
a seat. This, however, would not deter
mine his right to the seat il it could be
shown that he WAS not an inhabitant OF
the state. In his Judgment, the only way
to institute the inquiry would be by joint
resolution of the general assembly.
majority OF speeches were against any ac-
ton being taken by the committee, the
claim being made that Brice had established
tho point OF citizenship. A resolution was
adopted authorizing Judge Nash. of Colum-
bus, to make investigation, of the evidence

THE RUSSO FRENCH ENTENTE.

Its Nature Made Public for the First
copyright, 1891 New York Associated Press. !
LONDON, Nov. 27.-Tho first authentic in
formation conveying the result Of De Giers
sojourn in Paris reached the foreign Office
through the British embassy in Berlin. De
Giers communicated to Emperor William
and Caprivi clear explanation of the con-
ferences held in Paris and the character of
the Russo-F French entente. Doubtless the
czar instructed the minister to make these
declarations with the view of having not
only the German but other interested
European governments learn the nature OF
the compact between Russia and France.
According to the semi official statement,
based on De Giers' declarations, the recent
interview with President Carnot, De Frey
cinet, and Ribot, resulted in a definite
agreement for an exclusively defensive al
lance. The entente agreed upon, accord
ing to the statement quoted, differs on one
OF the most essential points from the
triple alliance, inasmuch as while
that makes the European status quo
the basis of the maintainace OF peace, the
Ruspo- French entente aims at what
DE Giers has called respect for treaties" !"
meaning especially the restoration of Rus
sia's grip ON Bulg ria and British evacua-
tion OF Egypt. The differences on the sit.
untion are not, meantime, to be regarded
ns constituting danger of war, as both the
Russian and French governments desire to
assure strict application OF existing
treaties by pacific means, De Giers further
communicated the fact that no treaty has
vet been signed and it is intimated that the
French ministers desire to conclude for
NAL contract az alone properly defining fu-
ture responsibilities and rendering it possi-
bio to pursue distinct policy before
Europe, while at the SAME time avoiding
warlike designs.
The sum Of these official assurances from
the Berlin embassy il that the Paris con-
ferences resulted in scheme to maintain
diplomatic warfare against the dreibund

doubt to day that II tho republican conven-

him. Senator Washburn left the city be-

1.-THE Blaine demonstration, which. no.
cording to some enthusiastic admirers OF
the secretary Of state, was to occur before
the members of the republican national
committee left the city, did not take place.
The better counsel Of more conservative
republicans prevailed, and the political
world was deprived Of what would have
been q most interesting and signifcant

members OF the committee and Others to
give vent to their enthusiasm for Mr..
Blaine. the high-watsr mark being relieved
in the iollifcation which was held at the

made. At this gathering every reference 70
Blaine was the occasion for noisy ebuli-
ton of affection, which interrupted
the course OF the speakers remarks

that this meant the nomination OF Blaine
beyond doubt. The devotion to Blaine
by the people Of Minnesota was evinced in
the Post some days since by talks with
some of the members of tia delegation.
Since Minneapolis has been selected Inern-
bers of the Minneapolis contingent feel
that there is not the same necessity for
