epithets at members of the Left, who re-
sponded with equal vigor. When the clamor
had subsidized, NJ. Floquet remarked that
the chair was powerless to deal with fits of
madness. Minister Fsllieres said the gov

THE FIELD FAILURE
Assignee Gould Has Made No
Report.
Mystery Still Surrounds the Aff.ir-An I'm
preston That No Reference viii Be
Made to Crookednesa

Especial to THE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Dispatch
NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-Two weeks haya
passed since the suspension of Field, Lind
ley, Weichers & Co. Beyond the few
transactions of the firm made public i'm
mediately after the failure showing all
around crooked work on the part of Ed
ward M. Field, the public knows absolute
ly nothing of the true inwardness Of the
failure. All kinds of stories have been
told about the failure and the extent of ii
has been estimated all the way from $50, OOC
to 50, 000,000 To-day Wall street Is asking
what the continued silence Of Assignee
Gould means. The general belief is thai
he Is delaying his Investigation Of the af-
fairs Ct the firm in order to allow the rela-
tives of Edward NJ. Field, who thus far ap-
pears to have been the only member OF the
firm Concerned in the crooked manipula-
TONS, time to settle up some Of his deals.
One OF the heaviest operators in the street
said to-day: II am inclined to the opinion.
and voice the opinion of several brokers
with whom l have talked, that we will
never know the real history of the conduct
of Field, Lindley & Co. Some day l pre-
sumo report will be made, but mark nv
words, III will only show the collapse Of
Field & Co. to be merely an ordinary fail
ure. Oil traces VI crOOKeO Qeallng Will nave
| disappeared
| There were rumors circulating to-day TO
the effect that Edward NJ. Field had OBJ
tanned large sums Of money by forging
bills of lading and warehouse receipts for
grain. 1t is said that he forged customers
names to orders for his firm to sell, and
then retained the money thus obtained.
! The hint OF concealed bank account
greatly interested Wall street men. They
! look upon it as an indication that some
such bank account will be brought to light
just about the time Ed Field RECEIVERS his
reason. But they laugh at the idea that
Edward M. Field ever had a hand in de-
posting any of this "soon- to appear bank
account. The reticeuce of all Mr. Fields
partners and the anxiety of those who had
| dealings with the firm of Field g. Co. to
deny all such dealing, give the impression
that there is to be quite settlement of
| affairs.

delegates to the National Liberal fedora
ton conference partook Of breakfast this
morning at which the principal guest was
Gladstone. Mr.. Gladstone addressed them.
He said he thought the time had come for
the commencement of continuous efforts to
bring about rural reforms. Speaking on
the subject of workingmen. Gladstone said
the labor question had wids range. Home
rule was part of the labor controversy; the
condition of the rural laborers was the
most urgent question. Proof Of this state
ment lay in the constant migration of these
lsborers Every endeayor ought to be
made to keep laborers at home. He hoped
to see labor candidates for seats In parlia-
ment increase in number Gladstone urged
the abolition of the common law against

rise to proceedings adverse to the liberties
of The people.

preparations of Space Settled.

CHICAGO, Dec. 1.-Twenty-one state
delegations in the Worlds fair convention
here to-day voted for resolution asking
Congress to appropriate IS, 000 600 for the
exposition. Five other state delegations
that have not authority to vote on such
questions put themselves on record inai-
viduallv in favor Of the resolution. 1t re-
views the work accomplished financially
and materially by Chicago; declares the
city has more than fulfilled It's pledges
calls attention to the national character Of
the exposition and affirms without hesita-
tion that Congress should promptly appro-
pirate IS, 900 for the completion of this
national enterprise. The advantages, 1t
says, are to be reaped by tho people of
Chicago have contributed s5,O00,0 600,
the city OF Chicago 5000, 900, and 1t GER
tainly would be reasonable for the rest Of
the country to contribute an additional
s., 900, 600 since the advantage to them Is
beyond calculation. The credit of the
country, says the resolution, Is at stake. II
the fair fails it will do US incaculable in
jury; If successful, inoalculable good.
The jar between the state delegates and
the board Of control as to jurisdiction over
the applications for space and the selection
of exhibits was finally settled by the adop-
ton of resolution declaring the national
commission or its board of control should
adopt such regulations as may be necessary
to enable such Of the state or territorial
boards as may desire or request to
inquire into and consider the propriety
of all exhibits that may be offered
| by any Citizen or resident of their respect
i've states and territories. Such board
should be empowered to receive and for
ward to the director-general all applica-
tions for space with such recommendation
and information as they may think proper,
and in case any proposed exhibition applies
directly to the direotor-gensrsl his applica-
ton should be referred to the board OF his
state or territory.
The Chicago directors meeting tonight
decided to ask Congress to give the exposi-
ton $780, coo, to be paid in the same ratio
as the city Of Chicago and private sub
scribers. This means If the exposition
makes enough to nay subscribers in full
the government will get It's money back If
earning only 25 per cent. the United States
| gets half back.
