Nrw YoRx, Oct. 2S.-sunday is al
ways o quiet day with politicians, and
dullnoss was tho feature of the political
headquarters in this city to-day. The
work Of correspondence was carried on
u usual, but there were few visitors
and no signs OF activity, except at the
Grant headquarters, where Mr.. Grants
letter OF acceptance Of the Tammany
nomination for mayor was made public.
Colonel strong's headquarters were
closed during the day and Colonel
Strong himself was not in evidence,
except to few OF his closest supporters.
At Republican headquarters a long
dispatch was read from Albany and was
Al ouco given out for publication to the
elect that the employees in the state
departments there were employed In
preparing and distributing thousands
n campaign documents in the interest
Of the Democrats.
Tho very large registration Of voters
In this city has been the subject OF
much discussion and speculation with
both parties, each claiming the I'D
vantage from the additional votes that
will probably be polled on election day.
Atth state Democracy headquarters,
on Twenty.third street, there was gen
eral feeling Of elation to-day over tho
results of the registration. The leaders
agreed in saving that It moant the over
wheImine defeat OF Tammany Hall.
Francis NJ. Scott said that, in his
opinion, Mr.. Grant would not get more
than 100000 votes. He believed that
the Socialissic, Labor. Populist aad Fro
hibition vote would not DC over 2OOOo.
which would leave in the vicinity ot
2450OO votes to BIO divided between
Grant and Strong, this allowing $1,000
plurality for Strong. This was the sub
stance OF a computation made by the
various leaders early in the day. The
racont arrest OF several hundred men
for alleged fraudulent registration, 1t is
believed, has had deterrent effect, and
the large registration is considered
big increase in men entitled to cast
their ballots.
District Attorney John R Fellows,
tQ-uuy, uQNot0It V%PaSsSS
mot at all surprised at the registration.
He thought there was nothing extraor-
dinary In 1t, and said that he conld see
nothing substantial to be derived for
either side fromit.
The chief interest Of the present week
among Republicans, centres in the ap.
pearence Of ex-President Harrison on
Wednesday evening, noxt, at Carnegie
Music Hall.
In Democratic circlea the starting to-
morrow OF Govener Flower on tour
through the state in the interests Of tho
Democratic ticket, is raising much IN.
teres,, because OF the master stroke the
Democrats claim Chairman Thacher
has made in securing the services OF
the governor on so important mission.
Corrections made in the returns to-
day show u total registration in this city
of SOC, 9,O3l, the largest registration ever
recorded in New York. Tho largest
preceding was thatof 1892, which reach
cd total OF 809.025. Tho registration
of1S93 was 265, ,90S.

CHARTERS NOT REVOKED.

The Missouri Supreme Court Decides for
the Bond Investment Companies.
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, June 1e.-Some
time ago the attorney-general brought
suit in the supreme court to vacate the
charters of the bond investment COM
panies at st. Louis, Sedalia and Ne
vada. To-day Judge McFarlane filed
an opinion holding that they were
properly incorporated and had right
to continue business. Judges Sher-
wood and Burgess dissented, and
Judge Brace did not sit in the case,
but as it was passed upon by the entire
court the opinion of Judge McFarlane
is final.
Judge McFarlane gives the compa-
nies this bill of health:
We are unable to see that there is even
suggestion upon the face of the certificate of
incorporation that the proposed business is
illegal either in its charter or the manner OF
conducting it. There is nothing illegal in the
issuance of bonds nor selling the same upon in
stallments IL done in a lawful manner and time
OF the redemption or payment should naturally
be left to the corporation issuing them. There
is no suggestion on the face of the pleading
that respondents are abusing or misusing the
franchise of incorporation for the purpose OF
conducting a lottery or other unlawful bus1-
ness, and until such abuse or misuse is shown
we cannot interfere to declare forfeiture
The attorney-general says that II
the companies attempt to resume busi-
ness he will prosecute them as lot

The Kiehts Of Girls.

There has been a good deal OF talk OF
late about the rights of growing girls,
and the general concensus seems to be
that girl has right, first OF all, to-
good, sound health, and, next, to a
training as comprehensive as her pa
rents are able to give her. Reading,
'riting and 'rithmetic are by no means
sufficient for the present-day girl
There is nothing she does not wish to 7
know, and there is nothing that will
do her any special harm to know, pro-
vided it is rig ht for her brother to know
it also knowledge is not only power,
but it is safety and strength, and steady,
substantial growth. 1t is useless to
argue thai girls should be kept in ig-
norance; but argue it as much as one
pleases, they will not stay so IN this
day and age of the world. BY ali
means let them know themselves, the
world and the possibilities of their
future. BY this means they will be-
saved great many shocks and will go
much more smoothly through the world
than they possibly could if kept in ig-
norance of the most important things
of life. Ignorance is danger every
where and always, and the sooner the
fathers and mothers of girls learn this
the better it will be for the children

WHAT DUN SAYS.
The Coal Strikes and Other Matters
Business Failures Show a Decrease.

The Coal Strikes and Other Matters
Business Failures Show a Decrease.
New YORK, June 16.-R. G.. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
The strike of bituminous coal miners will
end Monday. wherever the authority and ad-
vice OF their general organization can end it.
and there is little room to doubt the coal famine
will then begin to aoate. Some time must
elapse before supplies OF fuel will enable all
works to resume that have no other reason for
suSpending production. The actual output OF
pig iron weekly June was 62517 tons. against
126.732 April 1. and 17i.029 year ago. but the
reduction of 24S, ,552 tons in unsold stocks indi-
Gates quantity nearly double the output has
been taken for consumption.
At New York boot and shoe shops have
stopped, but shipments from the east are &c
per cent larger for June thus far than last
year. The demand is mainly confined to low
priced goods and has recently been more mar
row for womens shoes.
Wheat is only q fraction higher, the exports
and ordinary consumption for the year having
already exceeded the government estimate of
last years crop by 124 .000,0 1000 bushels. West
srn receipts for the week have been 1.474000
bushels against 2.l0l 974 last year, and Atlantic
exports only 9OS 996 bushels. against -2223, ,0s7
last year. Cotton has yielded a fraction. and
the report of acreage by the Financial Chronicle
indicates an increase of 205 per cent, with
prospects decidedly more favorable than year
ago
While business is narrow, it is comparative
" free from losses by failure. for the liabilities
reported in failures for the first week Of June
were only 2,507 .228 of which Si76l1s were Of
manufacturing and 81 81. .26i of trading con-
Germs. The aggregate liability thus far re-
ported in failures in May were but sl3514.760,
Of which s5.146025 were Of manufacturing and
s6.9l2 3G2 OF trading concerns. The number Of
failures this week have been 232 in the United
States against 313 last year. and forty in Cam
ada, against thirty-four last year.

MISSOURPS STATE DEBT.
1t Is Being Rapidly Paid on and VIII Soon
BE Extinguished.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, June 16.-State
Treasurer Lon. V. Stephens will for
ward to the American Exchange ma
tional bank, of New York City, the
states fiscal agent, in a few days, his
check for S34s, 900 to take up S162, 600 6
per cent. Hannibal & st. Joseph re-
newal bonds, and 1856, 900 of the state
per cent. funding bonds, due July /,
1894. He will also forward check for
about $780, to meet semi-annual in
terest due July 1 next, on the state
debt.
'.On April last" said Treasurer Stephens.
"I forwarded to the American Exchange ma
tional bank, of New York. my check for SG60G
to pay per cent bonds of the state, which ma
tured on that date; this will make $4,000 OF
our per cent. debt which we have paid on
within the last six months. The constitution
only requires the extinguishment of s25O,-
600 of our debt annually. On January
/ next 900 more of our 8 per cent.
bonds mature, and there will be enough
money in the sinking fund to pay them OF also.
When that amount is taken in there will be
outstanding but s521 900 per cent. state bonds
and Just as fast as they mature we will take
them up. We understand times are a little hard
and money is a little scarce in some portions OF
the United States, but not so in Missouri. Mis-
souri, is all right. and we will have. after the
July bonds are paid OF. a balance in the treas
ury that will justify the payment to the school
children in August Of about $4,000. Our fiscal
agent wrote me recently that in the event we
did not have money enough to take in the per
cent bonds due July l. they would gladly take
them in and carry for us at 81 per cent. inter
est until such time as we are ready to cancel
them. Missouri's reputation as a silver state
hasn't hurt her perceptibly in New York as far
as / can observe"
