THE BRITISH PARLIAMENT
VIII Dissolve In the Next Two Weeks-Mr
Gladstone in Good Health.

London, June 3.-(Copyright, 1892, by
The New York Associated Press. THE
last session of the present parliament viz
tually closed today. The desire OF sec
ton of the cabinet, strongly supported by
Mr.. Chamberlain and the unionist party,
to pass the Irish local government, so that
they would be able to so before their con-
stituencies with their Irish pledges re
deemed, has failed to prevail against the
general exigences. 1t is doubtful if there
is life enough left i'll parliament to dispose
Of the small remaining business, the mem
bers all hurryng 10 their constituents and
not intending to return. The radicals have
decided not to oppose the passing OF estl-
mates which will be voted i'll the dcsultory
fashion in which millions are usually voted
ct the fag end of the session.
The queen will curtail her stay at Bal
moral and will return to Windsor on June
22d, in order to avoid the necessity of the
ministers travels TO Scotland to tender
their designations.
The formaties of the dissolution of par
lament are certain to occur before June
18th and the electoral contest has already
commenced. Mr.. Chamberlain has gone TO
Birmingham, and will not return during
the present parliament. The bulk OF Irish
members have left Westminster Tor Ire
land. Election agents are busy arranging
meetings throughout the kingdom. The
date of opening GIadstone's Midlothian
campaign is not yet fixed. His idea of adj
dressing small meetings from village 10
village has been abandoned, and instead he
will address three great meetinGs-one at
Edinburgh, another ut West Calder, and
a third at Dalkeith.
Mr.. Gladstone is in capital health but
a great speech nowadays leaves him al
most Frustrated In his letter to the trades
council appointing June 10th for an inter
view, Mr. Gladstone, for the first time,
complains of deafness, and he asks that the
deputations sent to him be few in number.
His eyesight, too, seems to be failing, for
recently he had to ask Mr.. Morley to read
a document for him in parliament. Mr..
Gladstone's face-about on the eight-hours
question, bidding Schnadhorst to catch the
labor vote. and his swallowing the whole
progressive programme of the London
county council, receives scathing treatment
in the columns of the conservative papers,
which regard this as new instance Of his
characteristic opportunism.

a Big Time at Rochester.

Rochester, N. Y, May 3O.-Today will
ever a memorable day in the history of
Rochester. Never before has the city been
50 crowded and never before has it enter
tanned such distinguished company. Public
and private business was suspended and
everybody took q holiday. 1t is estimated that
fully 100000 people took an active part
in the various demonstrations. OF this
number fully 100000 came from the sur
rounding country. The president was en-
Enthusiastically received everywhere and was
compelled to bow his acknowledgements to
almost continuous cheering. The weather
was bright and fair. The feature of the
day was the dedication of the handsome
monument in Washington square in honor
of the soldiers and sailors of Monroe coun-
ty who died in defense of their country.
Speeches were made by President Harrison
and Governor Flower

Colonel Charles Marshall, of General Lees
Staff. Delivers an Grafton.

New York, May 3O-(Special. 1.-The fund
for the Grant monument has been com
pleted. That was the announcement made,
amid the cheers of the multitude, at the
Memorial Day exercises this afternoon in
front of tn, tomb of General Grant. The
crowd was a very large one. The follow
ing was the order of exercises: Hymn,
america" by the choir and audience;
Commander Thomas w. Topham; anthem,
"Give Unto the Lord, o Ye Mighty" by
the choir prayer, Rev. Mason Gallagher,
chaplain of U. S. Grant post; ritual, Com
mander Topham; Grafton, General Horace
Porter, of the staff of General Grant; ritual
by the officer of the day and post COM
mander; anthem. Gin the Silent Land" by
the choir; Grafton, Colonel Charles Mar
shall, of the staff of General Lee; anthem,
BLESSED Are the Nations" by the choir:
benedction; national salute by vessel of
the United States navy; doxology, by the
choir and audience.
The principal grafton was delivered by
Colonel Charles Marshall, who was chief
of staff to General Lee, the confederate
commander. Among other things, he said:
1t is not easy to express the thoughts that
the scene before me inspired In my nlndIln
tine q oa e e s Men Who ere
arrayed against each other in deadly strife

the other yet In the hearts fts,n OF the he
ylctOrS there Is no IcellOS OF
triumph and in the hearts Of the vanquished
there is no bitterness; no humiliation.
After referring to the bitterness of the
conflict and the fact that the combatants
so quickly dispersed at the end of the war,
he said:
No such peace peace ever followed
Immediately upon such war as our war.
The exhausted south was completely at the
mercy of the victorious north and yet the
sound of the last gun had scarcely died away
when. not only peace, but peace and good
will. We're re-established and victors and van

the damages of war and advancing the com

old relatons-social, commercial and political,
between the people of the two sections had
never been disturbed

the only alternatives. There is not state
in the unon-there is scarcely county-in
which may not be found worthy Of the
highest place in the people gift and able to
discharge Its duties courageously, honestly
and well. There is no lack Of material In
either party. This is peculiarly land OF
enlightenment and education, of patriotism
and knowledge Of public affairs, and nothing
could be more insensate than the spirit OF
faction that seeks to narrow down the choice
OF great national conventions to two or four
candidates, neither Of whom can be nomina-
ted without vindictive conflict Of which
the CHASTITY wounds will be slow, II not I'M
possible, to heal.
The people have but small voice in this
matter, but they naturally want to know why
it is that the politicians, having 1t In their
power to reach desired results by wise and
harmonious cOunsels, choose rather to fight
their way to nomination through bloody
angles and over the bodies, Of their own dead.

THE CRASH IN CORN.
The Story of tho Coster- Martin Corner in
MISUNDERSTANDING A gainst Dealers

ChicagO-SpecuIatorsA Against Dealers.
The cyclone that smashed the Coster-
Martin corner in the Chicago board of trade
Tuesday was one of the most remarkable
exhibitions of desperate commercial gam
bling that has been seen in this country.
Within q few pulse beats of that mad
crowd corn jumped from SO cents 10 81, and
wild offers were made to sell at $3.50 and
50 in anticipation of a stampede by the
shorts. All at once something dropped and
the price fell by dizzy stages from 81 to 90
cents.
Coster & Martins deal fell with a crash
and the operators in the corn exchange lost
from two hundred and fifty thousand to a
million dollars.
The deal originated when legitimate grain
dealers, having bought 500 900 bushels of
corn in the country, sold it for May delivery
at 40 cents, thinking there was plenty Of
time to bring it in. Floods delayed transit
and full delivery became impossible. Coster
& Martin then bought largely of corn and
began to bull the market, which appeared
hopeIessly short. Thus from Saturday to
Monday they forced the price from 80 cents
to 81, and it began to look like it would go
to s. in the excitement.

special from Cameron says: a convention

to Senator Roger q. Mills met yesterday.
a deadlock at once ensued, which was not
broken until t O'Clock this afternoon. After
the 1921 ballot, Messrs Searcy, Rice and
Blake withdrew, leaving, as contestants,
George W. Pendleton and Il. $. Antony.
PendIeton was elected on the 1881 ballot,

candidate is the present lieutenant governor

Turpio Talks on Reciprocity.

Washington, June 2-(Special)- THE
resolution offered yesterday by MIR.
Turpie, calling for the correspondence with
Hayt, Colombia and Venezuela, in regard
to reciprocity, was taken up, and Mr..
Turpie addressed the senate upon it. He
made one of his characteristic speeches,
bristling with wit and satire. His arrows
flew, with impartial and unerring aim, at
the president and secretary of state in con-
nection with their alleged rivalry as to
which was entitled to the credit of having
devised the scheme of reciprocity. He I'M
dertook TO show that, like other things
under the sun, there was nothing new about
1t, and that its first appearance in
modern history was the Methuen
treaty between Great Britain and Portugal
in the early part of the last century, while
its most important development was the
treaty between France and England in
1850. He ridiculed the advantages to ac-
crue from the recent reciprocity treaties
with South American states, and contrasted
what he described as that weak and mar
now policy. not commercial but political,
with the broad free-trade doctrine of the
democratic party Besides all that, he
questioned the right Of the president to
make treati that were not advised and
assented to by the senate. under the pro-
visions of the constitution.
The only other feature of the senate pro-
ceedings was Mr.. Stewards speecl-con-
t1nued from yesterday-in favor of the
free coinage of silver in the near existence
of what he declared himself firm be-
lever.
The senate. at the close Of Mr. Stewards
speech, provided for an investigation of re-
cent national bank failures, held an ex-
ecutive session and then took holiday
until next Monday.

Secretary Blaine was at the state depart
ment today and attended to his duties for
the first time in nearly a fortnight
MIR. Reed, whose conversion to the Blaine
ranks recently has been one of the signifi-
cant slgns of the times. said today that he
thought that Mr.. Blaine would be balloted
for at Minneapolis. Mr.. Reed also said
that he would not, as has been reported, be
the temporary chairman of the republican
convention. He had not made up his mind
whether he would even go there. In con
nection with Mr.. Reeds name was the most
Interesting piece of political talk of the day.
1t is limited that the anti-Harrison men, fail
ing TO defeat the president with Secretary
Blaine, will throw their strength for the cx-
speaker. Much stranger things have hap
pcned in politics.
