4 reduction of ST., 1885 ,49G in the ma.
tioual debt in January bears eloquent
testimony to the growing wealth and
prosperity of the country. The expend-
lures of the government have been
heavy, but its receipts constantly reach
almost unprecedented proportions.
There will be no treasury deficit despite
the talk Of the alarmists, rs long as Con-
gress keeps within reasonable limits in
the matter of appropriations as it is sure
to do.
From careful figures obtained by Brad
streets it has been ascertained that cut
of the 1868 failures in business in 1890,
1852 were due to the fact that the COM
panies or individuals were attempting to
do business on too little capital. Yet
the real condition of the business of the
year should not be judged upon this
basis: and when it is carefully consid-
cred, and comparison with former
years is studied, or an outlook for the
future attempted, these 1862 cases should
not be enumerated in the list

j. L. Tyler. of Ohio, said he had been
workman himself. He had concluded
that there was no adequate remedy on
the face of the earth for the complaints
of labor except the Christian religion
and the abolition of the liquor traffic.
Rev. Frank Ballard, of England, said
Christianity had never been tried
as a remedy for labor troubles.
Rev. Peter Thompson. of London, in
an essay upon the "ObiigationS of the

culpable neglect and indifference on the
part OF all churches, and the rapid
changes of recent years involving the
degradation and ruin of muttudeS had
not been watched and dealt with as they
should have been. He was coming to
the conclusion that almost the worst
doom that could come i'll this life was
the work house for men and women and
pauper schools for children.

?. o'BRIEN's POSITION.
The Irish Patriot Sets Himself
Right Before the World.

LONDON, Oct. 16.-It has been init
O'Brien, member of parliament for
Northeast Cork, was preparing state
ment, OF manifesto, in reply to the re-
cent Parnellite defances which have
been scattered right and left by the
leaders of that party. Mr.. O'Brien's
statement is given to the public to-day.
He writes:
Il have waited since the funeral, hop
ing that the late Mr.. Parnell's leading
supporters, knowing my relations with
Mr.. Parnell at Boulogne, would have
the manlineSS to diSaSsOclate themselves
from the diabolical charges circulated
broadcast by their special organ
that Mr.. Dillon and myself
bounded their leader to DEATH
Now are the councils of peace madly
and finally cast TO the winds; now have
the fOulest insinuations as to our treat
ment of Mr.. Parnell become part OF the
machinery of the Observation-Disclosures
without q word OF Reputation or rebuke
from the men who know the charges to
be the fouieSt, most ungrateful and in
iquitouS ever leveled at an Irish nation
alist. My countrymen will agree with
me that am absolVed from all obliga-
tons of silence In regard to the confer
ences at BOulogne.
The unaiterable basis of all commune
cations with Mr.. ParneIl at BoulOgne
was, first and last, his retire ment from
the leadership. l broke Off communica-
ton with him after the first interview
until | was informed by his chief lieu
tenant that he would entertain the pro-
posal. L invite Parnell's repre-
sentatives to publish every docu-
ment concerning the BOulogne ne
gotiations. We kept three objects
always in view. First, that 1t is i'm
possible that Mr.. Parnell could continue
as chairman of the parliamentary COM
mittee; second, to soften the memory
of Mr.. Parnell'S fault by every possible
palliative and evidence of good will
that his devoted colleagues could sug-
guest; third, to avert the calamities
which we keenly felt to be irreparable
from any disruption of the forces.
We are fully purSuaded that these
objects would have been attained had
the terms we suggested been Loyalty
accepted, and the party would then
have been reunited under the leader
ship of Mr.. Mccarthy, leaving Mr.. Par
nell all honorable place in Irish public
life. Mr.. ParnelPs four most influen-
tial lieutenantS protested themselves to
be as eager as ourselves TO secure Mr..
Parnell's withdrawal, either OH these
terms, or by reunion under the leader
ship Of Mr.. Dillon. These same men
are now silent, whilst their organ
charges me with plotting to get rid of
Mr.. Parneli:
They Themselves pressed me to con-
sent to Mr.. Parnell's first proposition,
which was that ne should retire i'll favor
of myself, and at the close of the nego-
tiations they repeated their conviction
that it would have solved the difficulty

explained in the following Iettey written
to me on the day we broke OF negoti-
atiOns:
Feb. II, 1S9l-My Dear O'Brien: I desire
to express TO you how deeply | feel the kind
ness and gentleEess of spirit shown 10 me by
you throughout the negotiations. / nave felt
ali along that had no right to expect from
anybody the constant anxiety to meet my
views, the intense desire that all proposals
Claiming your sanction should be as palat-
able as possible to me, which so Distinguishing
your conduct in the communications which
passed between US. | know that you have
forgiven much rouGhness and asperity on
my part. and that you have made allowances
for some unreasonable conduct from me,
which to anybody gifted with less patience
and Cancellation than yourself would have
been most difficult
Il appreciate intensely the difficulties
which surrounded you during these negotia-
tons, the constant daily anxiety whlcD
would have been overwhelming TO ANYBODY
possessed of less courage and devotion than
yourself. / feryently hope and believe that
the prospects of Ireland are not so dark as
you fear, and, after little time, having
passed through the clouds and darkness, We
shall again stand on our former footing

Mr.. OBrien concludes: ''Thus closed
the Boulogne communications, with full
recognition that we parted as honorable
opponents"
LONDON, Oct. 16.-Timothy Harring-
ton. NJ. p. for Dublin, replying to the
revelations of Mr.. O'Brien, said that
followers of Mr.. Parnell never made the
assertion that Mr.. O'BrIen was not
sincere in his desire to secure settle
ment at the Boulogne conference. lie
denies that the negotiation were based
on the absolute retirement of Parnell,
and adds that the sooner Mr.. O'Brien
publishes the text of the negotiations
the more delighted the followers of Mr..
Parnell will be.

GLADSTONE NUMBERED.
His Followers Aroused on the
Subject of Egypt.


LONDON, Oct. 16.-The comments of
the official organs of the French and
other European governments in Mr..
Gladstone's announcing at Newcastle
his intention to move an order
for the evacuation of Egypt.
awoke the liberal leaders to the
prospective dangers arising from the
declaration. Communications between
Lord RoSebery, Mr.. Gladstone'S last
foreign secretary, and Earl Spencer,the
coming foreign secretary, with other
leaders, have resulted in the semi-of-
fetal explanations, through the liberal
papers, putting gloss on Mr.. Glad
stones words greatly at variance with
the first general Interpretation.
Mr.. Gladstone did not mean that as
soon as he attained power he would
discontinue the occupation; he would
simply look for some way for bringing
to a close the present provisional
regime. James Brice, NJ. p, as the
next Liberal under foreign secretary,
was put up yesterday at Aberdeen 10
declare that the Liberals would not
scuttle out of Egypt any more than
the Tories. England was under solemn
and reiterated engagements to only
withdraw her troops when this could be
done with safety TO the progress and
prosperity of the country. Mr.. Brice's
pronunciamento, made within view of
the responsibilities of Office. shows that

DRoVEs OF CHINESE.
Why Not Corral Them for Thresh-
ing Crews.

ST.. VINCENT, Oct. 16.-Within the
past few weeks, on account of the strict
enforcement of the United States Gus
toms regulations in New York state,
the tide of Chinese immigration is di-
verified to the northern frontier OF Min
nesOta and North Dakota. Minnesota,
between Lake Superior and the Red
river, distance of 400 miles, is guarded
by only three customs officers, and
North Dakota is not in much better
plight, consequently the Celestials are
coming on in drOyes in spite OF the best
efforts of the few officers on duty. Col
lectOr Nelson, of the Dakota district, re-
ceived telegram on Tuesday from Kill
larney, Man., informing him that fifty
two Chinese had just gone south to-
ward the international boundary line, a
few miles distant, and Department Col
lectOr &. j. Williams, of st. Vincent. re-
ceiyed intelligence that twenty-eignt
others are on their way south towards
st. Vincent. This is but the beginning
of this undesirable immigration, but,
with about 400 arrivals weekly at Van
couver from China, a large increase will
be added to our population unless act
I've preventive measures are taken.

Will They Appropriate?

PIERRE, S. d., Oct. 16.-The people
of South Dakota will vote on Nov. on
the question of an appropriation of
$4,000 for worlds fair purposes. The
sentiment is rapidly changing in favor
of an exhibit. The farmer legislature
of last winter were generally in favor
of a representation, but their ideas of
the character of it were not up to the
standard required by the magnlficence
of the state. Many were in favor of
appropriating $4,000. Some wanted to
vote for $4,000 and some would have
voted for $4,000. but the pressure of
outside lobbying for $4,000 was too
strong for no sum less than $4,000 that
between all parties and the members
an adjournment sine die was had with
out anY appropriation.

A CLOSE ALLIANCE.
France and Russia Will Be
Bounden Allies.

PARIS. Oct. 16.-The government is
sounding the temper of the deputies on
the question of a formal treaty with
Russia, and that should the sentiment
be favorable, draft of written COM
pact, which has already been made for
submission to the car, will be put in
shape for that purpose. 1t is under
stood that nearly every deputy, ire
spective of party affiliations, favorS a
binding treaty with Russia. The frater-
niZatiOn between the two countries has
been greatly stimulated by the success
of the Russian loan under French
direction. There is a rapidly growing
intercourse, and the number of wealthy
Russians in Paris is greater than for
many years past, while Russians engage
with Frenchmen and Frenchmen with
Russians in business enterprises.
The object of II. de Giers, the Russian
foreign minister, in seeking the recent
interview with the king of Italy andi
Marquis di Rudini, the Italian premer,l
was to ascertain the nature of the triple(
alliance before concluding treaty with
France. King Humbert assured NJ de
GiGrs that the triple alliance was based
on defensive and not on an offensiye2

FUEL TO THE FLAMES.
Both of the Irish Parties Are
Growing Bitter.

Growing Bitter.
DUBLIN, Oct. 16.-Pierce Mahoney,
member of parliament for North Meat,
speaking at meeting of the followers
of Mr.. Parnell to-day, was greeted as
the new leader. He rallied Dillon and
O'BrieD. A year ago he reverenced
them next to Mr.. Parnell; he now
despised them from the bottom of his
heart. Though the party had lost the
craftsmanship of Parnell. the path he
marked out was plain, and they would
tread that path. Defeats would not
discourage them. If they had not a
sidgle seat in the house of com
mons. they would still have par
ty in the country that would
live in the hearts OF the in
dependent men of Ireland. By them
and their spirit Ireland would be re-
deemed. Mahony is a mere figurehead.
He is poor speaker. and has no known
gifts as tactician. The section has
but three men of proved parliamentary
ability-RedmOnd, Leary and john
O'Connor. The first named has become
the actual leader. The eXaspera-
tons of the factions increases daily.
Healy is specially marked out for detes-
tatiOn. His utterance recorded during
the Kilkenny contest about Parnell, u
will drive him into his grave or luna
tic asylum" is recalled and largely
made use of.

the international Women's Christian
association. IL was passed in secret
session. The forenoon was taken up

of a new constitution, which now
gives the association strong cen

pendently, the conference electing
no permanent officers, simply appoint
ing an international committee which
has power only to make arrangements
for the ensuing conference. 1t could
not raise FUNDS nor prosecute any active
aggressive work. The new constitution
provides for an executive committee
elected by ballots, and all other officers.
This committee will meet at the
call of the president and will
have power to push the work of
organization. The new officers elected
are President, Mrs. G. r. Springer;

talions now quartered at Metz will be

will be taught all the exercises the first
year, the second being devoted 10
repetition and extension on a more
thorough scale. This decision results
from the necessity of the quicker train
ing of recruits in order to keep pace
with the rapid growth of the French

The channel around the sunken steam
er Peck was completed last night. Yes
sells are passing. but very slowly. Most
of the large craft are grounded, and
caused great delay. The arrival of new
vessels is about the same as passages,
consequently there is not much decrease
IN the blockade. Fears are expressed
that the banks of the channel may cave
in, but government officials think they
will hold. Only fourteen boats of the
down feet of eighty have passed De-
tour, and over eighty up-bounG boats
are here still to pass. All vessels have
