lency is by restricting the diet to foods
which are poor in fat, and others which
are not convertible into fat within the
system. This leads to a reduction in
weight; It also lessons the work of the di-
gestive organs, and gives them q chance to
rest and regain their strength; moreover,
1t indirectly, If not directly, favors all VI
tai organs. As soon as this effect is felt
the discharge of waste products from the
system is decidedly freer.

NJ. de Gicrs Said to be the Bearer of As
surances of Peace.
BERLIN, Nov. 27.-M. de Giers, the
Russian minister, had long conference
to-day with Chancellor Won Caprivi.
The belief grows that nj. dc Giers' mis-
sion is not only one of peace, but that
it is having successful outcome. In
this connection it is stated that En-
peror William, while watching drill
of recruits after tho interview between
De Giers and Caprivi, remarked that
they would probably only be required
to do duty in peace.
1t is said that Prince Bismarck told
some visitors recently that he did not
expect to again become minister, and
did not intend to appear often at the
Reichstag. This is taken to indicate
that Bismarck will not DO a disturbing
factor in German affairs.
ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 26.-It is an
nounced here that M. do Giers, the Rus
sian foreign minister, who is at present
in Berlin, has been authorized by the
Car to assure Emperor William that
the entente between Russia and France
involves nothing that might be con-
strued as menace to the other coun-
tries of Europe.
1t is also added that M. de Giers is
also authorized to state to the German
Emperor that the aim of the under
standing between Russia and France
is to maintain peace.

today upon receipt OF intelligence from
Aldershot, where is situated tho great

PARIS, Nov e7.-ISpecial] When

GLASGOW, Nov Ell Special Hon
Arthur i. Balfour, first lord; OF the
treasury, was the principal speaker at
conservative meeting held here to-
day. BalfouT'declared very positively
that Ireland would nevor attain her de.
sire to have parliament sit in Dublin.
The unionists, he said, would ever be,
found on the side Of order and LOYALTY
They would deal with crime promptly
and effectively. They believed that.
society was founded on certain princi-
pies of law and morality, and that if in
obedience to political Inducements thew
relaxed their hold on these principles.
they would do the country most pro-
found injury.
Balfour said that the differences.
which separate the conservative and
liberal parties are more profound at the.
present time than they have ever been
before in the memory Of two genera
lions OF British statesmen. He declared
that during the last five years tho
unionists had had to fight for principles,
which heretofore had been supposed to
no under tho guardianship of both
parties.
Later on Balfour said that whatever
is the success of the governments policy
In Ireland it, at any rate, had been q
sincere policy. The first duty of tho
government was to sec that the laws
we're obeyed, and, by wise administers
tion and lavish expenditure of money,
to endeavor to increase the happiness of

grain markets were only slightly of

lately has been somewhat restricted in

The failure is attributed to the adj

been on the short side of the November
market, and few days ago had

had some dealings as we'll in Wall street.
Just how much of the amount the firm
finds itself unable to pay is not as vet
clear The grain markets were only
slightly affected by the failure. Tho
head of the firm is son of Cyrus w.
Field.
Assignee Gould this afternoon said:
The assignment was made for this
reason: Edward NJ Field, the senior
member of tho firm, has apparently
gone distracted His illness resembles
incipient paresis and is due to overwork
and the great responsibility resting
upon him as the manager of the finances
of the firm. Ills mother died last Mon
day, and this event seemed to bring
about the climax of his mental trouble,
which some of his friends had detected
two years ago. His physician told me a
few days ago that Field was not right in
his mind.
"Field having sole management of
the funds of the firm, it at once became
necessary to get from him their con
dition, So went in company with tho
other members of the firm to his resi-
dence and tried to find out how things
stood. We failed, however, to obtain
from him any light on the situation, as
his mind would continually stray from
the subject. We Lad undertaken hope
less task and the assignment then be-
came Imperative in order to protect the
firm and its customers
Neither the assignee nor any member
of the firm, so far heard from, could
give any statement of the firms condi-
tion. The firm was successor to the old
house of Field, Lindley & Co., and was
formed when Cyrus w. Field retired
last April.
There were rumors afloat that a large
amount of securities had been rehypoth-
ecated by the firm, ono statement as

$500, of the securities pledged by tho

was announced, which are claimed to
have been among the securities re-
