Il G. Dun & Co.. 5 Review Of Trade
tor the week ending February 10, says:
"Ine great combination of coal
carriers, and the wild excitement and
unprecedented transactions IN the
stock market have monopclzed at,
tention In Wall Street. Outside of
speculative circles there is some doubt
whether the effects will be beneficial.
Many apprehend that the price of coal
may lie advanced to manufacturing
establishments and other consumers
Others interpret the enormous sales
IN the light Of the sudden advance in
sterling exchange from $4.S7 to a SO,
and question whether the great sales
OF such securities by foreign holders
NAV not involve some embarrassment.

BLAINE TOWNSHIP TITLE.
Dispute as to the Validity OF the Orig
inaI Deed of Conveyance.

inal Deed Of Conveyance.
BLAINE, Jan. 29.-TSpecial. CONSIDER
able excitement has been caused in real
estate circles in this city by the resurrec-
ton of question of title to Miller's Park
addition. sixty-three acres, in the center
OF town, now owned, for the most part, by
ID. 5. Miller and the Clark Investment
Company. The property was purchased
by d. S. Miller in March, 1871. from Chris
tan c. Finkbonner, the deed given to
Miller not being signed by any wife. Now
comes ]. ]. Rutledge with quit-claim
deed from Finkbonner's widow, issued
last week, and lays claim to one-third Of
the property.
Flnkbonner was an early settler on the
Sound, and for long time lived at What
com; was customs officer, and also In
dian agent on the Lummi reservation He
also lived at Blaine for time From lSe0
to 1878 he lived with an Indian woman,
and died during the latter year, leaving a
widow, four boys and two girls. Two of
the boys, the oldest of whom is 20 years,
live on the reservation. The Finkbonner
family lived for time on the land now in
question, upon which is now located some
OF the finest buildings in Blaine. including
the Lindsey block, costing So 1000, and the
postoffice block, costing $4,000.
The present question was raised when
w. ]. Gillespie, who was endeayoring to
perfect a loan, was unable TO do so owing
to the fact that Fink bon ler's deed to D. S.
Miller lacked the wife's signature. and to
satisfy the investors it was desirable to
prove that Finkbonncr was not married at
the time the deed was given. Old settlers
assured Mr.. Rutledge. as he says, that
Finkbonner was married prior to 1871, and
that therefore no title could be complete
without her signature. Rutledge procured
her quit claim to all right and title in the
property in question. thus relieving
Gillespie in obtaining his loan.
ID. 5. Miller was sick in Whatcom, but
his agent, Councilman A. Hunter, in
formed the PosT-INTELLIGENcER CORE
spondent that this is no new thing, but
that Finkbonner was not married to the
woman until 1873, two years after the
deed was made to Mr.. Miller. though he
had lived with her prior to that time, and
1t was not necessary to have her signature
to it, which he claims can be easily
proven.
Rutledge claims that Finkbonner's
marriage, while only consummated &C.
cording to Indian custom, was binding,
and that the widow would be entitled to
her right of dover.
To give the matter a sensational turn, it
is reported that Mrs. Finkbonner has
stated to two different parties lately that
her husband was intoxicated when he
made the deed to Miller. and that she re-
fused to sign 1t, although it was offere d to
her, Tor that reason.

NEW YoRk, Jan. 3o-rspecial. flames
Hamilton Lewis. of Seattle, in speech be-
fore the Reform Democratic Club, 8 Cieve-
land organization, last night. among other
things replied to the criticisms of Chilean
Congressman Trumbull, made up
on Minister Egan. Trumbull had
said that he came from
q country that bloomed roses in January
and dropped snowaakes in July. Mr..
Lewis drove the banquetters from their
wines into a deiIrium of yells when he
said: 81 too, hail from land of climatic
delights no less blessed. and from people
who, for their tone of justice and freedom,
are no less distinguished. / come from
that sun-lit Eidorado of the Golden West
which sits like q aaming pearl at the gates
of the Pacific seas, the state Of Washing
ton" Continuing, he said:
81 am not in accord with this rampant spirit
of merciless condemnation of a man not yet
given an opportunity to defend himself Min
lister Egan was surrounded by circumstances
unusual and incidents extraordinary. In deal
ing with these, TO overstep the bounds OF eau
tion was hazardous, to mistake the extent OF
duty was, perhaps, disastrous. That amid
these scenes he was unable 70 reflect in tns
calm meditation or decide in the cooled ardor
exercised in nice scales with unfeverish hands
the deeds OF the great, is not to be wondered
at In harboring the trembling subjects of Bal
maceda's government from the bayonet,
or the quick galiows OF maddened
republicanists, frenzied by triumph
into murderous despots, as shown oy
their criminal brutality towards our own ci.-
zens, may not under the circumstances, by Mr..
Egan, have been polite or ststesmanlike, but it
was humane and Christianlke. So while we,
with the spirit OF true Americans, pledge the
combined and the united hearts OF our country
to the defense of the humbiest seaman that
elings TO the reeliug mast, let be no less gen.
erous TO those we have stationed in high places
and babe that, through every storm and bat
ting wind, they hold fast TO the stars and
stripes OF this American Union.
Mr.. Lewis was crowded upon and en-
iastically congratulated. The Post re-
fers to the speech as magnificent senti-
ment set off with an eloquent fervor that
was electric. 1t says the gentleman of the
West was the hero of the evening.

connection the name of Senator Cullon,
of Illinois, is very prominently mentioned
as the partner upon the Republican ma
tional ticket to Mr.. Blame. 1t is true that
a Cullom presidential boom has been
started by his friends, and that his state
may cast a complimentary vote for
him at the convention. 1t IS
thought that il would not be
very difficult task TO change this move
ment into vice presidential boom. If as
surances were given of nomination tor
the second place Il seems TO be taken for
granted that in case Mr.. Morton is not re-
nominated that Western man will re-
ceive the honor. In this connection some
of the Western men have come forward
with enthusiastic if not serious movement
in favor of Governor Merriam. of Mime
sofa. He is an ambitious young Repub-
lican, who would like to represent that
state from a seat in the United States
Senate, the one, in fact, now occupied by
Senator Davis. But he could easily be
persuaded by the call of his party to seat
himself in the chair of the presiding officer
of that body.
There Is q good deal of anxiety expressed
here TO know just what Mr.. Morton's
views are upon the subject. If he wishes
a denomination. of course, it is his for the
asking. or. indeed, his if he keeps silent on
the question. But if be Is not candidate
and does not wish 10 serve again in his
present capacity, there is q general desire
to have him give notice to this effect, so
that other plans may be formed, and not
have the announcement come at the last
moment when it will Interfere with other
matters There is no doubt that Mr..
Morton is not eager for denomination, and
ii is very probable that he will decide that
he does not wish his name to go before
the Minneapolis convention, no matter
who Is nominated as the presidential
standard bearer.
