GRAIN SHIPMENTS.

BALTIMORE, Md, Nov IL The grain
exporting trade from this port * still
booming On Tuesday last thirteen YES
sells, with a capacity of 1850, 600 bushels,
were chartered to load grain here. break
ing all previous records both as TO num-
Der and capacity. On Thursday five more
vessels. with a capacity of about 10000
bushels, were chartered. Besides these
there were berth room engagements for a
considerable amount of grain. All these
vessels are chartered to load at dates from
the present month TO the middle OF March.
The great development of grain business
is largely due, it is said by experienced
grain merchants, to the prohibition Of the
export OF corn and oats from Russia.
which occurred the latter part Of last
month This country, while shipping
comparatively little corn, Is the largest
grower and exporter of oats in the world.
The European demand for feeding stuffs.
to take the place of the supplies thus cut
off, is rendered more urgent and necessary,
and naturally turns to the American mar
ket for relief. While this prohibition does
not materially aid the wheat trade it gives
great impetus to the corn and oats mar
ket, and causes the great demand for ton
mage. II is estimated by conservative
grain shippers that the total amount OF
grain exported from this port during the
season will be nearly 81. 600 900 bushels, eX-
ceeding the total shipment of any former
year by at least 10, O0U, 900 bushels.

IINRIlIX SIOuX

PIERRE, S. D., Nov. 14-The remnant of
Big Eoot's band of Indians, under Red
Cloud, numbering some sixty families, Is
in open revolt against the authority of the
agent at Cheyenne agency. The partlc1-
lars, as learned from Indian Alotting
Agent Mexican, are that this band of In
dams has been living on the south side of
Cheyenne river on coded lands. As no In
dian can live off the reservation without
taking land in severalty and declaring his
intention of becoming citizen, MIR. Nc
Kean went up to allOt these Indians lands,
When he got there he found that they had
few days before sold off their stock,
which amounted to considerable, packed
their effects and left, leaving only a trace
of their former home. He notified the
agent who dispatched half dozen Indian
police after the band to bring them back
to Cheyenne agency, as they were under
the control of that agency. They overlook
the band near the edge of the Pine Ridge
reservation. All but one refused to re-
turn, saying that they were going to Pine
Ridge agency to live. The Indian police
men returned and reported. Agent Nc
kean has left with large force of Indian
police to bring them back.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 14-Acting Indian
Commissioner Belt has received a letter
from Special Alloting Agent Mexican, at
Pierre saying: There are no indications
of trouble among the Indians of the
Cheyenne agency. outside of the fact that
Bear Eagle and his followers have broken
away, sold all their cattle, abandoned their
camp, and gone to Pine Ridge in body
1t is understood that the bucks are all
armed. The agent thought that the
trouble arose because he had demanded
that their children go TO school He sent
policemen after them, but doubt of their
being able to bring them back without
some trouble. There are some rumors on
the Cheyenne river that the Pine Ridge
Indians are preparing to renew the ghost
dance, but nothing reliable as to that
could be obtained"

BERLIN, Nov 14-Despite the excited
articles which have recently appeared in
the newspapers procaiming a financial
crisis here, no crisis exists; and, notwlth-
standing the failures of the private bank
ers. Hirschfeld & Wolff, Friedlander &
Sommerfeld and of the house Of which
Herr Mas was the head. and the trouble
threatening other houses of the same
character, the position of the large banks
and The greater financial firms remains
solid, and public confidence in the general
situation IS mistaken. The run OF de-
pOsiUors on the private banks continued
steadily during the past week, and has
been accelerated since the surrender of
Herr Mas; but the money, deposits and
securities of all kinds which have been
withdrawn from the smaller concerns have
been deposited with the larger financial
institutions.
The bourSe doubtless experienced a Sc
we're shaking up, not through losses arising
from the failures-for the firms mentioned
had no large engagements with bankers or
operators on the eXchange-but mainly
through the revelation of the flash"
nature of prosperity which was supposed
to be permanent and genuine. Ia each
case the collapse affected depostors deal
ing with second or third rate bankers pay
ing high rate of interest on their de-
posits. Under the prevailing system the
private banks take on deposit shares with
out guaranteeing to return the identical
stock, but merely an equal value of the
same stock. The system has been repeat
eddy denounced as tending to encourage
fraud, and the public has been warned
again and again against entrnsting securi-
ties to men liable to use them in their
speculations.
Naturally, though there is no panic the
depression is coexistent with the decline
in values on the bourse. The period Of
general initiation, which reached its climax
last year, has been succeeded by persis-
tent reaction downwards.
Herr Mas. the self-confessed embeZzler,
lived a life of the same ostentatious eX-
travagance displayed by Wolff. As usual
in cases of this kind, the cry is raised by
the newspapers that the government
ought to intervene as a special providence
for the investors.
The municipal council of Munich has
questioned the burgomaster of that city
as to the truth of the report that Emperor
William. on his recent visit to Munich,
inscribed his name in the golden book of
the city, and adding the words, Supreme
lex regis voluntas." The statement was
admitted to be true by the burgOmaster.
The Bavarlan press protests strongly
against the assumption by mis- majesty of
prerogrative never conceded to q
Bavarian sovereign, and the organs of the
Freisinnige party profess to find in the
incident an illustration of the despotic
ideas of the emperor, which a contest with
parliament must correct.

BARON FAVA.

! WASHINGTON, Nov. 14-ItaIy is likely
to resume her diplomatic relations with
| the United States within the next few
months 1t is not improbable when this
event occurs, that Baron Fava will be
again placed in control OF the legation.
Baron Fava, it will be remembered, was
| Italy's diplomatic representative here
when the international complications
arose over the Malta lynching at New
Orleans. Pending settlement of the
matter, the Italian government recalled
Baron Fava. leaving only charge
d affaires at the legation. The I nlted
States refused to be influenced by this
action on Premier Rudini's part, and has
consistently retained our minister, Mr.
/ Porter, at Rome throughout.
A reporter was informed on high diDlo-
matte authority that the Italian govern
ment is very hopeful that the American
congress will vote a small indemnity to
the families of its slain subjects, 1t is not
expected that the amount will be large
A few hundred dollars in each case will
furnish a sufficient basis for a renewal OF
friendly relations again. Should congress
decline to make the appropriation 1T Is
quite probable that Italy will re-establish
the entente cordiale, although with mani
testify bad grace.
Baron Fava, as the cable dispatches an
nounced few days ago, mas recently been
rank attainable in any European service.
The promotion ought to set at rest the
stories in circulation at the time OF the
New Orleans troubles. that the Rudini had
availed themselves of the opportunity
to recall the baron, who was obviously out
of favor with them.
There is no duobt that for the moment
Baron Fava's course was irritating to the
Italian permier Baron Fava was a
staunch and sturdy friend of the United
States He urged a moderate policy upon
his government from the first, and it was
not until Rudini had twice commanded
HIM to demand his passports and leave the
country that he reluctantly did so. There
is no doubt that Premier Rudini has since
realized that the baron was right and that
he was wrong. He certainly cannot be in
disfavor with his king or he would not
recently have received so substantial a
recognition of his merits
