WHY MIR. sTRAUs DECLINED.

Tammany is in a hole. II is not the first
time, of course, that this has happened. and the
organization has generally been able to crawl
out again by hook or crook-mostly the lat
ter. This time. however, the hole appears TO
be deeper than usual, and Tammany's dis
tress is proportionately increased. II has
been put into this cavity by the formal refu-
sal OF Mr. Nathan Straus to accept the nomi-
rion for Mayor.
The situation in New York was bad enough
already, owing to the seemingly irreconc ila-
BILE differences between Tammany and the
State Democracy respecting the Congressional
nominations. The party was thoroughly split
up and ii needed but the climax OF Mr.. Straus'
declination TO make the Generalization quite
complete. Thus it has come to pass that the
nomination for the highest municipal officer
in the greatest city of the United States-a
nomination. TOO, which meant election with
out doubt-had to go begging, and was
finally picked up by ex-Mayor Hugh J. Grant,
who was quite appropriately called "a child
OF Tammany'' by the committee that 'laid it
at his feet

away so giittering a prize? His declination
to accept is ostensibly based upon Senator
Hills refusal to change his purpose of having
the election ticket printed in a certain way,
but it is difficult to believe that nothing more
urgent furnished the motive for Mr.. Straus'
decision. 1t is altogether more likely that
his unwillingness, after mature reflection, to
run for so high an Office took root in the dis
trust which he shares with everybody else as
to Tammany's policies and practices. 1t may
have occurred to Mr. Straus that the banner
bearer of an organization TO which so much
corruption has been brought home as has
been developed by the Lexow committee. for
instance, is not in the most enyiable position.
He may have felt that in a measure he was
sacrificing his self-respect and forfeiting his
right to the respect of men whose good opin-
ion he valued by appearing as the champion
and leader of a Democratic faction whose
practices are repudiated by the better ele-
ments even Of his own party; faction whose
name is a synonym for nearly everything
that is bad, corrupt, evil, rotten in the
municipal government of the great city OF
New York. and whose debauching influence
is felt throughout the State and in the legis-
lative body Of the same.
The assumption is warranted that Mr..
Straus, even though from the very first he
placed himself upon an entirely independent
platform, felt that he might be serving Tam
many as cats paw TO pull chestnuts out of
the fire, and that this part Of the performance
did not suit his taste.

But 1t May Be Two Years Before the In
vestiture Takes Place.
BALTIMORE, Oct. ia clergyman of Car
dinal Gibbons household to-day confirmed
the report that Mgr. Satolli will become a car
dinal.
This much is all that can be stated with
certainty he said. "Seven-tenths of what
has been printed upon this subject is the
vaguest speculation.
In addition to the fact that the archbishop
will be made cardinal. the most that can be
said is that he will probably be named as such
at the next consistcry, and that the next con-
sstory will convene in Rome. most probably
in December of this year. Upon his being
named as cardinal he will receive the red
berette and De invested with his new dignity
in the Cathedral at Baltimore
What time will intervene after the cere-
mony of the investiture and Mgr. Satollis
proceeding to Rome to receive the red hat at
the hands of the Pope, is purely matter of
speculation. 1t may be six months; it may be
a year, or even two years.

NEW YORK, Oct. 19.-The announcement Of
the engagement of s5OOOOO in gold for ship
ment tomorrow on tbs steamship Ems, had
no effect on the speculation on the stock ex-
changs, chiefly, perhaps, because at the same
time the sterling exchange market gave eyi-
dences ola declining tendency
At the opening the stock market was very
dull, but the first prices made were generally
small fraction higher During the first
quarter OF an hour firm tone prevailed, but
on small London selling slight reaction
took place, which was of brief duration, and
for the hour following the tendency was up
ward on small business and q slight move
ment.
slight reaction took place before midday,
but in the carly afternoon good buying i'm
parted tone to the speculation and under the
leadership oil the grangerS prices again took
an upward turn. The improvement was
checked about 12:45 by raid on Chicago Gas,
which had been bought freely during the
morning by clique ana which was now sold,
II is said, by the same interests. Sugar also
gave way about 1 per cent. and Tennessee
Coal and Iron lost / but the railway list
was well held, except Manhattan. This stock
was sold down by trader, who found it un-
protected, and before any support came a
break of 33s per cent. from the best prices of
the morning had been made. Then came a
rally of per cent, which was maintained to
the close.
During the last two hours of business the
speculation was decidedly strong, and the
market closed strong. with prices at or near
the highest of the day, except in a few in
stances, which show declines from yesterday s
prices. The more unimportant advances are

RAILROADERS WILL ORGANIZE.
Washington and Anacostia Street Railway
Employees Postpone Their Strike 10
Become knights OF Labor.

There will be no strike on the Anacostia
and Washington Street Railway at present.
On last Saturday it was decided that the driv-
ers and stablemen should go out in body
this morning, provided enough of the men
would sign the agreement 10 give the move
ment sufficient impetus to insure partial sue
cess at least. This the men failed to do.
Hence still further postponement OF the
strike was found necessary.
An informal conference of the leaders OF
the strike movement was held yesterday and
it was decided to form. as soon as practicable.
among the street railway men of Washington
an assembly of knights of Labor, and then
should it be deemed advisable 10 strike, us
the leaders think it will be, the men will have
the moral and financial support OF organized
labor throughout the District. 1t was sug-
gested that they would also have the benefit
of that ali powerful strike weapon, the boy
cott, in their efforts TO bring the management
of the road to terms.

Small Blaze.

There was considerable excitement in
Reynoldsville about LOS Tuesday after
noon when the fire alarm was given and
it was known that there was blaze in
the new woolen mill. Hose Co. No.
and West Reynoldsville fire company
were prompt In responding and had two
line Of hose connected but did not use
them as the fire was extinguished be-
fore they were ready. The fire origin
ated in the picking room as mysterious
ly as it did when the factory went up
in smoke on the Goth of July, 1S93
The supposition is that nail went
through the picker and ignited the wool
in the picking room. The only damage
done was to burn some OF the wool in
the picking room and unnerve the
factory girls. The picking room is not
in the main building but on the third
floor of wing OF the building. The
room has sheet iron ceiling and brick
walls and it would take quite fire in
that room to burn down the factory.

the church. At that time he was earn

Several years afterwards Mr.. Jelbart
felt that he should become minister Of
gospel and consequently began prepar-
ing himself for the work. Az the ses-
sion Of the Erie Annual Conference Of
the M. +. church held five years ago
he received his first appointment,
Emerickville charge, which he has
served earnestly and with good success.
Five years is the limit Of time for Meth
Odist preachers in one place, and there
fore, when the conference meets at

ence Of ye editor, gave him a middle
name, Hustler" Since that time he
has been known as Rev. Jas. H. Jelbart,
although II has been known by only a
few OF his friends what the II is for In
