THE IMPROTED OUTLOOK.

Wall street was much encouraged on Monday
and Yesterday because no failures had resulted
from settlements on the exciting business of last
week nor any new disaster been reported.
The only considerable failures Of last week
were directly traced 10 the collapse in certain
industrial stocks, and everything appeared to
promise speedy resumption OF business by the
firms in trouble 50 soon a. their customers, or
corporations whose stocks they had been
handling could restore confidence and meet
their obligations. No trouble developed in
commercial loans, and it was again IN en-
couraging fact that banks and money lenders
seemed to have escaped embarrassing loss from
a fall in stocks which would at other times
have caused serious disturbance. Prices of
stocks have been irregular again and at times
weak, but without any feeling of panic.
Indeed. it cannot be considered at all strange
that prices decline in many cases, after the
extensive rally. Those who bought when stocks
we're at the lowest would have been unlike
most spectators if they had not been disposed
to realize tho large profits offered by the prices
since made. When any such great collapse
occurs, there are hundreds Of holders who do
not get caught in the wild rush. either because
Of absence or because cooler heads and larger
margins give them strength, but who conclude
that it is well to get out on the first rally
Considerable selling Of stocks by persons of
these classes was 10 be expected before the
effect of the fall last week could be fairly
measured.
1t is still the safe thing to remember that
neither the present condition Of business nor
the monetary prospect promises any important
improvement. The situation is the same in all
essential respects rs it was before the severe
fall took place. The public has no reason Ia
count upon the financial management of Dem
ocIatic Administration, nor can it regard with
cn.ira Indifference the great industrial change,
now threatened which begin to affect sales in
many branches Of business. The warning given
to the business community has been so com
pletc, and preparation for difficulties appar-
emily so thorough. that duness rather than
spasmOdc decline, wearisomc depression rather
than a panic, seems likely to be the prevailing
feature for some time TO come, at least in com.
mcrcial circles. And when legitimate trade
is waiting for unknown but threatened change.
wcll-sustaincd advance in speculation is rarel,

Recovery is Of course in order. and would
come more speedily and surely if there were

arm obstruction,ts and to send the Home Rule
hill in duc time to the House of Lords. That
was what the people of the United kingdom
ordered when the general elections were held
last year. If it were possible for the minority
70 defeat Mr.. Gladstone's bill by their Obstrllc-
ton conspiracies and Ulster intrgues, the Brit
ish Constitution ght be in danger. The sue
cess of the majority in executing the VIII OF
the PEOPLE docs not imperi the principles Of
constitutional government.
A less partisan minority would take a differ
cnt course in the committee stage. Instead OF
wasting time in futile attempts to block legiS-
lation which they have been unable to defeat
on the second reading, the opponents OF Home
Rule would act more wisely if they were to
strive to amend and perfect the measure in de-
tail. That is a legitimate minority function,
and a highly useful one. If Her MaJcsty'S OPP
position after their strenuous cXcrtons II throw
out the Home Rule bill altogether, would devote
their energies to a thorough revision of it by
which its efficiency as working measure might
be promoted they would command the respect of
the nation and exert a very beneficial influence
unon legislation. Like the Irish obstruction
lists in the past, the Unionists are bitter par
tisans. They are resolved to fight the bill to
the end and to keep up hot fire upon Mr..
Gladstone As obstfuctioni>ts they are not en-
titled TO more consideration than was shown
to Mr.. Parncll when he was blocking coercion

THE CONTENTION At LOUISVILLE

It is striking proof OF the conference and
strength of Republican principles in the minds
of tho Republican masses that so large and
impressive body as is now gathered mt LOUIS
vile could be drawn together, soon after
the defeat of last November directly from
among the people and without any OF the hopes
and ambitions that create interest in the pro-
ccedngs of such assemblies as nominating con-
yentions. The Republicans at Louisville are
not there in quest Of office. No man among
them has anything tangible to gain. except as
it may be gained by the whole people, from
the work that will be done. Their presence is
an evidence of the interest taken by them and
by the communities they represent in the prin-
ciples for which the Republican party contends,
and those principles are strong enough to cause
the assembling, ut their own expense, OF 1000
citizens who are not oiliceholdcrS, brought from
every State from the Atlantic to the Pacific, IN
the single hope and desire of stimulating the
activity Of the forces that promote Republican
success In this sense the convention is a credit
to itself and to the party. and it Is impossible
to think that the work of men so earnest and
disintercsted will not avail greatly to the adj
vantage of the cause they eSpouSc.
The elections in an off year are too little re-
garded by Republicans. IL is Republican
tendency to wait for a Presidential campaign
to make full manifestation Of party strength
and even then infinite labor must be performed
before the party managers can be assured OF
poll that really expresses the power OF the
party. The Democrats obtain an advantage by
this absence of Republican interest in of years
which avaiIs them greatly when tho National
tickets are put in the field They have acquired
office and patronage in the of years. They
have obtained power in Legislatures by means
of which they have been enabled 10 pass gerry
mander laws and other acts for the placing OF
electoral machinery in their hands They have
obtained strength in the courts which they list
with mighty effect in carrying forward th,
worl. of partisan naturalization The Rcpub
licans who stay at home when there are merely
few Congressman. a Legislature and mlnoi
state officers 10 be elected, and who do not
see that party principles are largely involved
in these contests. intct serious damage upon
their party and equip lis rivals with tools IL

pagns The League will do a great and vall-
able work if il can only succeed in showing rho
folly of this course. II has in view the accom-

CyOCT,PE IN THE COMMONS.

Criticism of the application OF closure to de-
bate On the II Jme Rule bill in committee comes
with bad pIacc from the Cnioniss. They have
frequently had recourse to il themselves in deal
ing with obstruction, and have no right to com
plain if their own tactics are suppressed III the
same way. 1t is easy for them to raise a hue
and CRY over Mr. GladstOnes revolutionary
processes but the Home Rule majority will
not be deferred by partisan claptrap from TAX
ing advantage of the rules and diSpatchlng
legislative business. As coercion bills have
been forced through Parliament by the opera
ton of the closure, 50 also the passage of the
Home Rule bill by similar methods can be
justified In the six hours debate on Monday
the CnionstS under the leadership OF Mr.. Bal
four and Mr. Chamberlain introduced dlatory
motions and made an organized attempt 10 OBJ

There is no installing the temper Of Emperor
Williams brief speech yesterday. Although
addressed to the chief officers of the Guards, it
was meant for the ears of all Germany. 1t is
the deliberate, carefully considered expression
of the Empcrors will and purpose If the new
Rcichstag should fail TO pass the Army bill, he
is. he says, determined to stake everything in
his power to secure its enactment. This Is as
plain a challenge to the legislative body as
could be framed, although Berlin dispatches
say that the Emperor does not wish the speech
to be regarded as threat. Obviously stren-
uous if not a desperate conflict is in prospect.
