ELECTION EFFECTS.
Diverted From
Trade to Political Activity;
Yet there Has been an EnornOus VOIums
OF BusInsas-The People Are Buy
Ing More Goods Than Ever Before
Money Somswhat Closer.
NV YOa1. November z.-R q DuA 3

NKW YozK. November 7.-R @. Dun 4
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
Even in the last week before the presiden-
tial election business has continued very &C
tive, indeed the volume is far beyond any
precedent for similar period. The COM
ing election has plainly diminished business
In two ways: The multitudes have been
diverted from trade to political activity and
many more have decided to postpone trans
actions until the political uncertainty has
been removed. The fact that even under
such circumstances trade has been in enor-
nous volume shows how powerful Is the i'm
pekus toward activity and expansion. The
people are clearly buying more goods than
sver before, and in some branches manufac-
turers are realizing sharp advance in prices.
Money is closer at some of the western
points, but nowhere Is a stringency seen and
apprehension as to the immediate future.
Wheat touched the lowest point ever known
In this market, 7315 cents. The receipts at
the western points are still enormous.
Though this week it has averaged a little less
than 100, 0OO bushels daily. The exports
have much increased and the recovery In
price to 7415 has resulted, but the decline tor
the week is still IL cents.
Corn has fallen cent with moderate move
ment, but oats IS cent higher.
The sales of cotton have amounted to more
than a million bales and the price advanced
q. Coffee is sc lower, and hogs also. while
lard Is &c stronger and oil 15c higher.
Speculation Is not very active except in cot
ton. The iron business improves everywhere
and unsold socks are fast disappearing.
Western competition depresses the plates,
but for the industry a whole, the tone has
distinctly improved. The demand for WOODEN
goods is active for the session. Cotton goods
at former and in some lines higher pr1ce.
Boot and shoe factories are surprisingly busy
for the season, the shipments for the week
exceeded last years per cent. Nothing seems
to foreshadow a money difficulty, and with
colder weather and political uncertainty re-
moved, great business is anticipated.
The business failures the past week were
238 compared with 1S7 last week.

No Exc Thrown at Topeka.

Dispatches sent out from Topeka stating
that the populist parade in honor of General
Weaver was assaulted with eggs, il wholly
without foundation. No eggs were thrown.
One or two unknown hoodlums in crowd
of several hundred people who followed the
parade, threw small stones at members of
the Democratic Flambeau club. Two men
were hit and slightly bruised.
The incident was of SO little moment that
the police were not notified, and very few of
the populists here were aware that stones
had been thrown until they read the report
in the newspapers. No one claims that
members of any political party were respon-
sibl0 for the incident.

preston.
He has stayed the pesiilence at our doorj

Il, Benjamin harrison, president eff the
United States, do call upon all our people to

IT is GENERAL.
Every Union Except One Joins
the Strikers.
Industry in New Orleans IL ParaIyEod-
Twenty-Five thousand Men in the
gtrIke-The Militia Ready 20
Come Out at Short NOtiee.

NEW ORLRANs, November s.-Industry in
New Orleans is parslyzed. The strike now
includes nearly $4,000.
The strike. which is in tho interest of bet
ter pay for the draymen of the city, includes
the whole Workingmen's Amalgamated coun-
ell, which comprises every trades union in
she city.
Thsre are but few drays to be seen on the
streets, but the small spring wagons come
into very general use. There are no street
can running.
The governor was called upon by a com
mittee of strikers. He warned them against
any breach of the peace, but declined to dis
.uss the strike.
No work is being done, and the only sign
srict, against which the strike is principally
directed. The new men there are willing to
remain at work until violence Is so general
a. to make It unsafe for them to continue.
The proposition made through the gov
srnor to arbitrate the question of hours and
wages, but 10 leave the question of unionism
Bntirely alone, has not yet been responded
70 By the labor side, but it IS hardly likely
that it will be accented, as the cry of union
ism is made the rallying cause OF the labor
leaders. Merchants also say that they will
aot recede further. The governor Is keeping
bis staff within call and the militia is ready
20 come out at short notice There Ia bus
little violence of any kind as yet and moth
ing to warrant the sending of troops to rein
force the police.

The Usual Arrangements.


The usual arrangements were made for
supplying early information of the result of
the election to the president. In corner
room on the second floor of the executive
mansion were a number of telegraph instru-
ments, and one of these circuits which runs
into the Western Union received the eXclu-
sive attention of Chief Clerk Montgomery,
who manipulated the wires. By meas of
this link communication could be had be-
tween the White house and any city or ham,
let IN the land where there Is a telegraph
Office.
If any of the party managers desired to
communicate with the president, he could
do SO almost quickly if he were in the
presence of Mr.. Harrison In addition to
this means of acquiring Information as to
the progress of events, the complete and
accurate bulletins of the Associated Press
were sent to the White house by another
wire.
After the business of the day was over, and
the actual returns began to come in, the
president had the company OF Secretary
John w. Foster and Attorney General Miller,
and possibly one or two personal friends
and together they read the returns. No ono
else was present. Contrary to his custom,
the president denied himself to the men,
bers of the press, to whom he has uniformly
extended a courteous permission to be
present.
The reason for departing from his usual
practice is obviously in Difference to his re-
cent bereavement and the desire to avoid q
pie who saw the president say that if he felt
any anxiety, he did not show it. He was
cool and collected. and betrayed no signs Of
worry.

to United States Marshal Walker:
The Hon. w. S. Walker, United States Marshal;
Sm;-Yours dated October 30 just to hand.
In reply will say that have appointed dep
uty sherins at each voting place in the county
with positive written instructions to arrest
all V1olators of the election laws aud to keep
peace and order, and I am quite sure they
will do their duty. As to any threats being
made, have not heard of them. And if
any attempts are made have plenty of men
to support the law. l understand that they
have made their brags that they would take
charge OF the elections; that they would go
inside the room and inside the ropes if they
wanted to and were going to. Now, If they
attempt anything of the kind I will GER
tainly have them arrested if I can deputiZo
men enough to do it. So far as 1 can am
determined that there shall be no disturb
ances or fuss on the day of the election and
and really not there, for think it is all talk
and bluff. I don't know that they have
said anything there of my knowledge. Re-
spectfully, w. II. THOMPSON, Sheriff.
T. 81 intend to do my full duty as sher-
IN as nearly as know how and don't intend
to be buIldozed or bluffed of by any one.
There may be men enough to kill me, but
IN this county or in any other, and you had
better instruct your deputies of their duties
II you have the right to send any here, or
rather appoint them. don't object to you
sending as many as you want to, so far as
am concerned. but they must not try to in
Respectfully. w. II. THOMPSON, Sheriff.
Marshal Walker, in reply, said he would
insist upon the enforcement of his original
instructions to deputies.

CuriOsities Of the Campaign-Preparati

Carnival OF 1898.
ST.. LOUIS November THE campaign in
St Louis has doomed the lumber business,
perhaps, more than It has the sale Of badges
and torches. In the last Presidential cleo
ton, the meetings of the clubs and other
party organizations were held IN halls or
theaters. The increase In the registration

that they would have to abandon the whole
plan. Accordingly, one club built great
Wigwam of wood, which would accommodate
the 1000 voters in its ward, covering vacant
lot nearly block in extent with the structure.
It was found that it was cheaper to do this
than to hire halls, and the idea took. Pic

The vote on congressman at-lRrge is very

Indications are that Anthony is elected.
Broderick is elected in the First district by

Simpson in the Seventh b $4,000.
The legislature will be close on joint bal
lot, but repu blieans will probably have eight
or ten more than the pOpulists.
Twelve districts are very close and may

WIN Investigate Her charres.

CINCINNATI, November 9.-Mrs. Mary L.
Geffs, who Is known to all organized labor
in the state, makes public what she charges
is the worst case of human bondage OHIO ev-
er knew. She asserts that three weeks ago
Joseph Zihlman, superintendent of the Zihl-
man Glass Company, of North Baltimore,
O., went to New YORK city, where he picked
up in the streets twenty-seyen waits to whom
he promised good clothing, boarding, trans
portation and so cents per week the first
year in the factory.
Mrs. Geffs says that on arrival at the fac
tory, Zihlman called in the police and in
Inundated the boys into signing an agree
ment to repay the company the railroad
fares. Mrs. Geffs asserts that the boys in
three weeks have received twenty-five cents
each. They are wretchedly clothed, and
their food insufficient in quantity, end IN
quality unfit for a dog. The boys are
marched to and from the works to their
rooms, the whole lot being huddled in three
rooms on straw pallets. Half of them work
all night, and they are kicked and beaten in
the most dlabOlical msnner. Evan II. Da-
Wis, factory inspector of the first district, has
started an investigation

the wigwams viii stay till summer, at least
before they are torn down and sold again.
One of the branches Of the wholesale bust
ness of st. Louis that Is peculiar to this city
is occupying the attention of the big mSr-
hundreds of stores IN the small towns along
the rivera OF Alabama, Mississippi Arkansas,
louisiana and Florida These Southern
merchants come to the city during the time
for years supplies before they 20 away.
About the beginning of November the whole
salers here send out Aeet of boats loaded
to the guards with goods for these Southern
steamers, and send out two or three of them:
some charter the boats and send only one.
This com mercial hOtilla steams along leisure
ly through streams OF the Southern States,
leaving the little landings here and there
hidden under boxes and bales of merchRn-
dice, and gets back to st. Louis about the
beginning OF Spring, An time for the boats
to enter the regular summer river trade. A
great saving in freight rates Is effected in
this way by the ST. Louis merchants, and it
is to be presumed the customers get the bene-
fit of the economy.
Scores of men have been busy this week
stripping the exposition building of its ex-
hibirs, and taking down the colored lamps
and liked electric pieces that delighted the
eyes of million people last month. In
few days there viii little remain in sight of
the festivities splendcr except the illuminet-
ed signs and notices of the merchants
which they will keep blazing at Eight as an
attraction to the passerby. The festivities
committees are already at work on their
plans for next years celebration, and will
shortly put designers to making the sketches
for the many brilliant street pictures it is in
tended to have. The spectacle il 20 be so
much more elaborate and costly in 1898 than
it was,this fall that the work must be begun
much earlier.
About twenty years ago Washington uni

over a mile from the Merchants Exchange,
and six separate buildings were erected for
the several branches of the school. Busi-
ness then had not got within half mile of
the site. and there were only a few dwellings
in the neighborhood. Now. electric cars run
by the lecture rooms. and the roar of doz-
en- factories disturbs the students. The city
has grown miles past the university, and has
made the value of its property ten times
what it was when its doors were first opened.
So, the university will move, and it will al
most be able to pay for its land and its
new buildings by the sale of its present
property for manufacturing purposes

Illinois, with her "a votes, is conceded by

New York is Democratic by about 40, 0O0.
Latest dispatches give Illinois to Cleveland

Now Orleans in Labor Troubles.

NEW ORLEANS. November THE Amalga-
mated council of the labor unions ordered a
general strike.
All sixty-three unions consented to go out
in the first instance on account of refusal to
recognize the unions. Later some of the
hesitated. If ali unions obey the order it
will involve newspapers, electric light, bak-
ers, street cars and all other branches of
industry.
There is much dissatisfaction in the ranks
of the labor Organizations. Many of these
unions have already had sad strike expert
ences, and are not anxious to renew the con-
test, especially when they have no grievances
themselves.
The merchants and boss draymcn at q
meeting raised S25, 900 to be used in case of
a general strike in protecting those who de-
sire to work. The merchants are very firm
in their discrimination not to yield.

rotary of State Foster attributes the republi-
can defeat to the tariff issue. The party, he
says, challenged the Judgment of the country
on the Mckinley bill. and the verdict of the
people Is that different policy shall be
adopted. Other questions were offered in the
contest, brt not to such an extent as to ma
terially affect the result. Nor would it have
been different if the other candidates had
been selected, or other leaders managed the
campaign. No administration ever went be-
fore the country with a cleaner record. It is
the policy. net the personnel, of the admin
istrataon that has been condemned"
In this view of the matter Secretary Eos

be sustained b. the party majority in both
branches of congress SO that the new policy
may have full and fair trial.

LONDON, November 8.-All the efforts that
have been made to bring about settlement
of the strike IN the cotton industry have
failed and the mills at Ashton-on-Tyne are
closed. The long threatened crisis Is on and
$1,000 operatives will be idle unless some
thing unforeseen should happen.
In commenting upon the outlook the Pail
Mall Gazette says it has no doubt that the
the bottom of the difficulty. If Mr.. Harri-
son is elected there is no chance of better
opening in the United States. Even If Mr..
Cleveland is elected reduced duty on Brit
an markets practically closed against the
British product the outlook Is not rosy.
