review OF the cotton market McPeak Is
Co. say:
The New York cotton market opened
up some three points In consequence OF
a STEADY Liverpool opening, wAicn was
better than the trade generally looked
for. Prices renamed steady around
these figures up To II o'clock. At which
time Liverpool close came IN. showing
an advance Of 2-6l. This brought about
better feeling all around, and prices
became firmer and closed steady at
about six points over last nights anal.
New Orleans failed to respond at the
opening to New York's advance, but
later showed a gain OF eight points
above the opening.
Spots were dun and unchanged In
New York with no sales.
New Orleans firm, but unchanged.
Sales by factors 1850 and 500 to arrive.
Port receipts We're somewhat larger
than year ago, being 41005 against

An officer of the Boston Describes the
Last Days of the Monarchy.
WASHINGTON. Feb. "a decidedly
more racy chapter in the bulky volume
of the Hawaiian testimony is Lieutenant
Lucien Young's description of the last
days of the monarchy. Lieutenant
Young was an officer of the Boston and
attended the closing ceremonies of the
Hawaiian Parliament in an official ca
pacity, at the request of Captain Wilt.
Lieutenant Young's description of the
scene is picturesque in the extreme. He
said: Il was shown seat assigned me
in the legislative hall, little to the left
and in front of the rostrum where the
Speaker used to sit, and which the Queen
used when she read her proclamation. l
believe it was about the funniest affair L
ever saw in my life-a circus. The Queen
looked at me rather savagely and did not
return my salutation with any cOrdiality
at all. l noticed that she acted in a Pc
culiar way. First, when she was reading
her proclamation, L thought she had a
little stage fright, but in the reception
room | saw she was under the influence
of stimulant-in fact, drunk. There is
no question IN my mind about 1t at ALL"

DEBATING THE TREATY.

Caprivi Repels Attacks Made Upon
Him in the Reichstag.
BERLIN, Feb. Z7.-The debate on the
Russo German treaty was continued to-
day in the Reichstag. Won Caprivi re-
PEELED the attacks made upon him for
concluding the agreement, and said he
would remain in Office as long as the En-
peror was pleased to retain him. He as
serted that the treaty would get universal
approval from a political point of view,
and it's rejection would involve contin-
uance of the tariff war with Russia. The
commercial treaty served purposes OF
peace as we'll as the army bill and the
Dreibund, and 1t was the last link IN the
chain which was commenced with the
Austro-German treaty. Attempts To
bring about economic reprOachment with
Russia had been proceeding for nearly
century, and he had only fulfilled
promise Bismarck made in 1873, that the
conclusion of a commercial treaty with
Russia should be effected by himself or
his successors.
The leading statesmen of Austria and
Italy had expressed satisfaction at the
conclusion Of the Russo-German treaty,
and its rejection would mean thes sever
ence OF all ties between Russia and Ger
many. I'VE do not care for martial
glory. The only fame we desire is solv-
ing problems relating to social and INTEL
lectual Improvement of the people; en-
abling the nations to live together ami
cably, and preparing way for future
time, when it may be necessary, to bind
together larger group of nations in
great, common economicipolicy. By con-
stantly pursuing this policy, Germany

Employees to Confer With Receiver
Clark on the Wages Question.
OMAHA, Feb. 27.-On the application of
General Solicitor Thurston of the Union
Pacific system, Judges Caldwall and San
born of the Federal Court have issued an
order, in view of the inharmonious de-
cisions of various District Courts on the
proposed new wage schedule of receivers,
10 the effect that receivers shall grant
leaves of absence and travelling expenses
to representatives of the employees on all
parts of the system to Omaha on March
18th to confer with Receiver S. H. HI.
Clark on the points of difference, and that
all points not agreed on by March 9th
shall be laid before the court for adjudi
cation, the new schedule meantime being
abrogated. 1t was explained that the re-
ceivers, at meeting in New York last
week. decided to abrogate the proposed
new schedule. Judge Dundy of the Dis
trict Court says the order by Judges
Caldwell and Sanborn does not affect the
standing OF his order.

Rats Forced to Keep Gnawing.

Have you any idea why it is that rats,
mice and sqirrels are continually gnaw-
ing at something? They do not do this
for pure devilment," as people generally
imagine, but because they are forced TO.
Animals OF that class, especially the rats,
have teeth which continue to grow as
long as their owner lives. In the human
species the teeth are developed from
pulps which are absorbed and disappear
but in the case of the much maligned rat
the pulp supply is perpetual, and is con-
tinually secreting materials by which
the incisors gain in length. This Icing
the case the poor creature is compelled to
keep up his regular gnawing operations
in order to keep his teeth ground OFT 10 q

SAN Francisco, Feb. 27.-The Southern
Pacific people are at a loss for an explana-
ton of the action of the Santa Fe officials
in making the railroad cut both ways.
"We would not have objected so much if
the low rate had been made applicable
only to westbound traffic." said General
Passenger Agent Goodman. "The ex-
planation, however, seems to be very
easily found in the fact that a great ma
jority of the people from the East who
are at present in California are possessed
of return tickets, so that the busines that
will be done under the new schedule will
be with new customers, people living in
California who may desire to go East"
Assistant General Passenger Agent
Donaldson was treated to a surprise to-
day. A businesslike gentleman dropped
into his ofnce and unfolded proposition
to bring 10000 persons out from
New York State and that vicinity, pro-
Vided he could get rate that would be
satisfactory. AS evidence of good faith
he made Mr.. Donaldson q tender OF
81 900 check. His proposition is TO bring
6,0O0 people out at one time and 1000 at
another. The startling proportions of the
proposition took away the breath of
the Southern Pacific representative, and
he took the matter under consideration.
About the Southern Pacific offices
nothing new was learned aside from what
is stated above regarding the situation.
What action the Union Pacific will take
in the premises has not officially reached
the Southern Pacific offices as yet, al
though it is a fOregone conclusion that it
will be in the fray in day or two.

ENGLISH BURGLARIEs'
Family Burgllng'' and Safe Cracking
in England.

Roughly speaking, burglars practice
either as housebreakers or warehouse
burglars. In the case of the last the iron
safe is the object of attack, and as the
watchman is eitEer absent, decoyed away,
or an accomplice, the implements used
are Of the largest kind, and their use not
unaccompanied by noise. 'Jlmmles,' or
steel crowbars, from three TO tive teet
long, thick, weighty, and with hooked
points like eagles bea1s, ponderous
''braces" for drilling holes into the locks
of safes steel wedges, and Ieaden nam
mers faced with leather to deaden sound,
even canisters of gunpowder Tor blowing
out the locks, are part OF the equipment
of the 'safe' burglar.
"Family burghng' is separate branch
of the art. The tools are far more dell
cate, and means of escape must be pro-
vided in addition to those of forcIble en-
try. Neat ladders of tarred rope, tor hX-
inc to pOrticoeS as a ready means OF de-
scent, are an old precaution. But the
wire and string entanglements Whlcn are
now invariably stretched across the paths
and gardens of villas and country resi-
dences in order to trip up pursuers are
recent Improvement generally adopted
by the profession.
The equipment of the warehouse bur"
glar is too bulky for hand carriage, and is
always taken to the scene of action III
cab or a spring cart.
The house burglar carries his tools IN
his long overcoat; a broken overcoat but
ton, of which one-half was found on a
smashed window sill, was used to Identify
a burglar last week. Some OF the JIM
mes'' at Scotland Nard are of very care
ful workmanship, unscrewing in the CEN
ter and able to be concealed In nat'
Masks are an antiquated precautlon. Ohe
is, however, preserved, which was worn
by a burglar who was detected under
bed in public house before closing time
Burglaries committed after o'clock
incur a heavier penalty than house
breaking achieved before that hour. For
this and other reasons the time of dinner
is usually selected for the lOOting OF big
establishment. This has only one draw
back. 1t leaves little time for explora-
ton. and the burglar must be we'll ac-
ouainted with the interior of the house.
In this connection women play an inn
portant and usually an unconscious part.
1t is not difficult for nice-spoken
young man to get ON friendly terms with
the maid servants in large establish
ment, and servants take special pride in
showing their friends and admirers
around a well-appointed house. A judi
ious appreciation OF the taste displayed in
the mistress boudOir leads naturally 10
view of the bedroom, and not seldom to
voluntary information as to the position
of the iewel-boX or safe. Nearly all the
recent Jewel robberies from private
houses have been effected during the
dinner hour.-SpectatOr.

Ghost on Board of Ship.

A ghost haunts a ship. The mate has s
story of it every morning. One night the
Captain watches the mate, sees him riss
from his hammock and walk in his sleep
into the cabin. There he takes water in
pipkin, scatters it about, and, still asleep,
goes back to roost.
Next morning the mate tells how he
had been awakened, seen the ghost, fol-
lowed him into the other cabin and be-
sprinkled him with holy water. He was
quite honest in his statement: be had
been somnambulistic and remembered
(which seems unusuaD the hallucinations
of his sleep walking. Probably more
ghosts than we generally allow for are to
be explained by somnambullsm.- .-Black-

The Vessel With the Party on Board
Seen Passing Down the River.
WASHINGTON, Feb. q. - The wild
rumors in circulation yesterday afternoon
that disaster had overtaken the vessel
on which were President Cleveland, Sec
retary Gresham and others in the storm
of the night before, were set at rest to-day
by the news from the Indian Head prov
ing ground, twenty-five miles down the
river. The vessel passed there yesterday
afternoon. giving no evidence of having
suffered any damage or Of anything un-
usual on board. 1t is therefore certain
the vessel lay to in one of the numerous
creeks or indentations in the Potomac dur
ing the unsettled weather.
