The people were entirely unprepared for

roads are covered with srowdrifts ten feet

trains have been imbedded in snow for
hours, and on the Isle OF Wight the weather
Is reported to be the coolest of the century.

Reports received here from Spain show

RI nuNI,s EXPENSES

SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 5.-Some light is
thrown on Mr.. Blount's expense account,
which Mr. Hoar has called for in the SEN
ate, by All incident which occurred on the
revenue cutter Rrsh's trip 10 Honolulu
On that voyage Secretary Mills was quar-
tered with the officers in the ward room,
and on the first night cut. after he had re-
covered from slight seasickness, he asked
for champagne. It was furnished. and
during the voyage he drank enough to
amount TO SIS He did not mention pay
ing for it, aud, H. it was the properly Of
the officers. they finally selected one of
their number 10 brOacil the subject. Mills
expressed great surprise, and said that ne
fancieG it was furnished with stores bv
the government. He paid the bill cut of
his own pocket TIE matter led 10 some
general discussion over he funds out of
which Minister Blount's expenses were
paid. Mills said that President Cleveland
hai a secret fund at his disposal, aud that
Blount drew on this. Mills SAID he simply
kept an account of all expenses, aud
turned that account in as a voucher for
money paid. If n carriage WAS ordered or
n hotel bill paid it went down in the list.
So the champagne item may be looked for
when Hoar gets the accounts. The officers
tried 10 get some idea of Blount's salary
from Mills, but the secretary was very
retic.nt. The expenses of the party must
have been heavy, however, as the single
item OF sending the Corwin cost about
S., 600. and Blount's personal expenses
amount to more than this sum.

NEW YORK Jan. 5.-This was a day OF rumo
on the stock exchange. Yesterdays higher
range of values encouraged the professional
bea to make an attack upon the market to-
day. They brought to their aid false reports
and unfounded rur:ors, and the officers OF the
properties affected by these weapons were
kept busy denying statements put forth as a
means of depressing prices. 1t was SAID that
at the meeting of the directors OF the missouri
Pacific, held today. steps would be taken look
ing to the appointment of w. $. Pierce. gen
eral attorney of the railroad corporation, as
receiver. President George Gould promp' i
denied tine story, saying that while tie COM
pany,s earnings had decreased, In common
with those of all other railroads of the COM
try, it was earning its interest charges, and he
added that the February coupons would be
paid at once, less per cent. to any doubling
bondholder. A free selling NOV. ment was the
result of the circulation of the rumor and the
publication of the December report, showing
q heavy decrease in earnings. and the stock
lost 2s4 per cent, with rally in the late deal
ings OF II per cent.
The market opened generally firm, the
changes in prices being merely fractional A
strong upward tendency characterized the
movement which set in after the opening. and
prices advanced 16al1s per cent. There was
then sharp selling movement in missouri
Pacific, que to the unfavcrable reports as tc
the company's finances. and the stock broke

hands. Shortly after II o'clock speculation
improved in tone, and an advance OF 1sass

The market became heavy soon after the
noon hour, and held on the downward grade
until after O'Clock. Then came slight rally;
but the prices eagged of again. the market
closing weak and inactive. with majority of
the shares lower than on yesterday, the range
being 1sa21a per cent Louisville closed liz

Morton:
Resolved. That we condemn the course

and vicious attack at Chicago upon all Or
ganizations of tillsrs of the soil, and earn
estly urge President Cleveland to replace
him with competent man, who has at
least some sympathy with agriculturists.
The Office he now holds was created ut
their demand and for their benefit. Iuas-
