FOR DESERVING POOR.
The Board of Trade Devising a
Plan to Help Them.
Not as a Charity Gift, but to Enable
Them to Work for Money Enough
for Their Support.

The executive council of the board of
trade will hold meeting tomorrow after
noon to decide upon the best method of
distributing the fund which is to be
raised by individual subscription Of
the members to the deserving
poor 1t was originally intended
to turn il over to the
overseer of the poor, but the suggestion
was made that IL was wiser course to di-
rect the executive counsel to devise some
plan whereby families whose pride pre-
Ssntx Csntsd brdnsn them ,d from asGsptng
might be reached. Doubtless in
many instances, the heads of such fami
lies would desire to be furnished employ
ment as an equivalent for the money dis
pensed, and this is a contingency which is
giving them food for thong consider
alton. The organization of associated
charities is graphing with this problem,
and Mayor Olney is deliberating
upon the subject and consulting with the
heads of city departments TO sec If it Is not
possible to find some kind Of employ
ment for this class of so-called in
dependents, There is a proposition
which has met with favorable
comment to select for instance the City
Missionary society, which has a system
attic organization OF visiting committees
in the several wards, and to make some
definite arrangement whereby re-
ports OF deserving cases may
be made to the executive
council and the money distributed in
that way. Grace church has adopted a
plan in the esta blishment of an employ
ment bureau OF ladies OF the parish.
They meet regularly Thursday afternoons
having solicited or purchased from
the special collection fud supplies Of cloth
TO be made into undergarments. The
ladies cut the cloth, procure the thread,
needles, etc, and then employ the women
in destitute families to make them. They
arc turned in on the succeeding week,
and the seamstresses are paid for their
work. This custom Is maintained weekly
during the year and as n result many poor
families are furnished with means ID keep
the wolf from the door at time perhaps
when the male members are una BILE TO se-
cure work. IL this plan was adopted In
the other churches OF the city and by
charitable organizations, IL Is believed that
equally good results would follow The
investigations by members OF the different
societies have disclosed numerous cases
which have not been encountered by the
overseer of tho poor or their agents,
primarily because nothing but absolute
privation will force them TO become
charity dependents. They will gladly
take any kind OF employment in their
willingness TO earn even a mere pittance,
and the adoption by the churches Of the
Grace church scheme would materially
contribute TO the solution OF this per-
picking problem.

BLOUNT TESTlFlES.
He Tells Why He Was Chosen by
President Cleveland.
Bu me .fssociated Press.


WASHINGTON, JAM, LEX Commis-
sioner Blount was this morning before
the senate committee, which is in
vestigating our relations with
Hawaii. The committee at first
had requested Mr.. Blount to appear on
Friday last for some reason, therefore,
Mr.. Blount told briefly OF his APP
March, 1893, by the president
as special commissioner. The revolution,
he said, together with the part the
American troops had taken In
connection with it the fact that
the American minister had established
an American protectorate over the islands
and that provisional government
had been formed, and was seek
ing to have the island annexed to
the United States had decided the presi-
dent to have the whole matter investiga-
ted by some one who had no connection
with the occasion, and he had been Sc
lected for this mission.
The statement brought the committee
to one point in its inquiry which the res
olution under which the committee Is
acting contemplated should be developed
fully.
The resolution was intended spe-
discussed point of Mr.. Blounts
appointment as special government
commissioner without the consent OF the
senate. The decision to have the Ameri-
can ensign taken down
and the American soldiers
returned to the man-of-war was re-
vived.
Mr.. Blount said he had fyund the islands
and tue government under the constane
or protection OF the United States troops.
The flag foated over the government
building into which the officers of the
provisional government conducted their
business. Everywhere was noticed its
influence OF this country upon the people
OF the Islands.
1t was evident Mr.. Blount
saw that IL would be diff
ficult to secure an impartial
account or opinions uninfluenced by the
surroundings as long as this state OF af-
fairs continued.

Tricks Of the Champarne Trade.

The champagne trade has many tricks,
many secrets. The Frenchmen who manu-
facture and those who deal i'm wines have
grown rich of the people of other countries.
The French themselves are not wine drink
ers, according TO the sense of the term in
this country. They are the most abstemi-
Gus nation on earth. They are experts in
the art of palming off their stun on other
nations at an enormous profit. SO much
has been said and written about the mag
nificent vineyards OF the Rothschild family,
of Count Lagrange and others that the un-
familiar world has grown up with the be-
lief that every brand OF champagne on the
market is backed by 900 acres of grapes.
What an absurdityl Why, the only vine
yards that some Of the greatest wine firms
own are in their cellars. They buy their
millions Of bottles wherever they can find
them aud send them out over the world as
the product OF a certain vineyard.
They will sell you hundred different
labels, and the same wine for all. II you
are skeptical you may write 20 the house Of
Grandct Sec, or Wayre Sec, or Birotto Sec,
or any other cf the hundred, and the letter
will be received and answered promptly,
answered 10y a clerk in the house of the
hundred labels. IL is probably no exaggcra-
tion TO say that in this city the same wine
may be fOuud under dozen different
labels. That Is one of the tricks Of thc
trade. IL an agent can guarantee To sell a
certain number Of cases i'm year he will
receive from this house the absolute right
TO certain label for ~ years. and he can
choose any label he plcases. oh. IL is n
great bnsiness.-Now York Tribune.

The arrivals at this port are as follows:
Steamers Nashua, Williamson, New York;

Notes Along The Wharves.
George Rowland pilot of the steamer
Nashua returned to his post last evening
and pilot James M. Hewlett,
of the Pequot, is taking
his annual vacation and Captain Walter
Penn will occupy his position during his
absence.
The tug Reliance brought up from New
port the barge No. So Of the Standard Oil
Co.
The schooner Eaglett sailed with 1s2
tons of fertilizer for Greenport. N. Y,
today. tf
The tug Glide has gone to Westport and
from thence to Fall River.
Thick Fog This Morning.
The fog was so thick in the bay this
morning that the captains OF the steam
ers We're obliged to blow their whistles
every minute.
To Have an Office.
The prospects, are that the newly in
installed harbor master will before many
months have an Office, but there need be
no hurry, as there, perhaps, is no city in
the country where the harbor masters are
any better cared for than in this city.
This is due to the kindness OF Mr.. A. w.
Bailey, who conducts harness estab-
lishment at the east end OF
the bridge, and it is here
that the harbor masters have made their
headquarters for number OF years. Mr..
Bailey is Republican, but he has always
been as kind to Democrat as a ReYub-
lican harbor master, and is sure TO have
everything comfortable for that official.
Mr.. Bailey doesn't understand why man
should want to burden himself with the
care of an Office, for under the present
system the harbor master is not obliged TO
sweep the floor, build fire, shut of the
water in cold weather, and hundred and
one other duties will necessarily be obliged
to be done had he an Office.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 11.--When the sem
ate met at noon today Senator Quay favor
ably reported from the committee on
commerce the house bill, "To pro-
vide for testing plates at the
mills where manufactured, instead OF at
the boiler works, and thus saving the
expense OF returning rejected plates 10
the mills" The bill, slightly amended,
was passed.
Senator Cullom reported favorably from
the committee on commerce te the
senate bill granting 10 the
Des Moines Rapid Power company
the right 20 construct dam and power
station in the Mississippi river in Hancock
county, Illinois.
The bill was amended by requiring the
work to begin within two years aud
completed within four years, but Sena-
tor Hawley of Connecticut objected 10
immediate passage and it went over.
Senator Davis resumed his discussion u
the Hawaiian question. He asserted that
the people who were most active in
the recent revolution in Hawaii
as necessity of the then
residence of the islands, had taken an oath
of allegiance TO the Hawaiian govern
ment and were not aliens in the sense in
dicated in the presidents message.

The New Haven Road Demands That

The Consolidated Twirling the Knife
Under Its Rivals Ribs-Manhattan
Likely to Take Drop.
Special 10 The Necs.


NEW YORK, JAM lit is said that the
Thomson Houston heads of departments
in General Electrics are likely to resign
from the company soon. Some are going
to engage in private electrical enterprises.
The New Haven road has notified the
the New England that here
after they will require payments OF
all freights received from them.
A strong syndicate, composed OF Messrs.
Uhlman and Ladenburg OF the Brooklyn
Elevated, made bid for the Rapid tran
sit privilege. This will probably affect
Manhattan Electric. A receiver has
been appointed for the Peoria
and Decatur rCad. London market X
lower for st. Paul, for the rest of the
market unchanged except Atchison which
Is also x lower. A dull market is due
today.
ID. c. T., Lay go lower in sympathy
with sugar.
There is disposition to sell Northwest
ern on the ground that it Is relatively
higher than the other granger stocks, and
will be affected by the situation which
brings about the large decreases in earn
ings shown by st. Paul.
The low range of values has largely dis
counted the unfavorable state of affairs.
Holders refuse to part with their stocks
and the short interest is of such proper
tions that it would not be sur
prising il the next import
ant changes in the speculation were
for the better. For the time being, how
ever, a sustained movement either way
seems to be out of the question. Until
railroad earnings begin to show some
improve nent there Is not likely to be any
sustained advance in the general market.
The situation does not change mate
rally from day TO day, and still the ranks
of believers in near revival
OF trade grow rather than lessen.
The security markets are continually
antagonized by the trading element, but
that the strong men are buyers rather than
sellers of securities at the present level Of
prices is best made probable by their
money accumulaiions OF the past.
A Pointer.
Manhattan Elevated is good
thing to sell short, at least inform
alton in possession OF THE News
that comes from source OF un-
doubted authority points to an approach
