Grain Market

CHICAGO, Feb. 1.-The opening of the wheat
market repeated the course it took yesterday:
started weak and CSC. lower than /. closed on
the previous afternoon and at that reduction
there were buyers enough to prevent for a time,
any further decline. There was rather more
encouragement for buying than selling in rou-
tine news. Lower cables and the increase in
Liverpool stocks, however, were received with
alarm by the holders and were responsible for
an early decline. The rise which began TO sue
coed the previous reaction was due to the de-
mand for cash wheat at St. Louis.

would find that they were mistaken just
as the Nicaraguans did, but there is little
question but now they are firmly con-
WINGED that in some way they would re-
ceive assistance of the United States and
this conclusion, unless it be dissipated by
some authoritative statement from our
government, will play an important part
when President Crespo sits down to pre-
pare his answer to Secretary Chamber
lain.
1t is to be hoped that the next Con-
gress will give more exact definition
of the Munroe doctrine than any
we have now. There is n good
deal Of vagueness about it as it exists
today. The South American republics
seem inclined to give an Interpretation
so broad that If we accepted it, we should
be under obligation to take sides. with
them in almost every kind of dispute
they might get into with a foreign
power. OF course it's author never
intended that it should have such scope
Interpretation would constantly embroil
US in all sorts of quarrels. On the other
hand the English press is inclined to
sneer at it and treat it as sort of will O.
the wisp with nothing tangible about it
A definite statement of the attitude of this
government toward republics to the south
is therefore much to be desired. Such q
statement would be likely to restrain
the South American republics from
cuarrelsomeness on one hand and Euro
pean powers from arrogant behavior on
the other.

Indiana is taking steps to hold mid
continent exposition in the year 1900
as the centennial celebration of the or
ganization of Indiana as territory of
the United States embracing at that time
all of the northwest beyond Ohio. The
territory was born July 4, 1900, and Gen.
W. II. Harrison the future President was
it's Governor for the next eleven years.
The state was admitted in 1916. Indiana
may we'll take steps to advertise itself
more vigorously. In spite of its quiet
ways it is sixth among the American
commonwealth in population, andithe
elements that have made it great ought
to be better known to the world.

ENGLANp AND VENEZUELA.

If the statement of the st. James Ga
zette is trustworthy, the dispute between
England and Venezuela is about to be
brought to head. Mr. Chamberlain,
secretary of foreign affairs, has sent to
President Crespo of Venezuela, an ulti-
matum in the matter. An ultimatum
is the last word. and if rejected the next
resort is to force The terms that England
submits are not made known, but some
time ago Sir Julian Pauncefote, British
minister at Washington, declared that
his government was willing to arbitrate
as to part of the territory in dispute,
but the sovereignty of England over the
remainder must be acknowledged. 1t is a
reasonable inference from this statement
that these are the conditions of the ulti-
matum.
The interesting question is what reply
will President Crespo make? Will he
yield, or will he stand out and fight?
Undoubtedly the people of Venezuela
are strongly in favor of the 1atteripolicy.
The dispute has extended over many
wears and very bitter feeling has grown
up against the English government. The
Venezuelans bel ieye that the British are
trying to grab their territory; that they
are imposing upon Venezuela because
she is weak, and the sentiment of the
country is overwhelmingly in favor of re-
distance. President Crespo therefore may
be unable to stem the tide of public
opinion, even if he should desire to, and
may find himself in a position where he
must choose between war with Eng
land or an outbreak at home that may
drive HIM from the Presidency. The az
gument that Venezuela is no match for
England would not be likely to avail him
much if he should make it, for the Vene-
zuelans have become firmly impressed
with the idea that the seizure of
the disputed territory by England
would be in direct conflict with
the Munroe doctrine and conse-
ouently that England would become
embroiled with the United States. We
are strongly of the opinion that they

LEEDS ( HARRINGTON
II. r. 60.
First Mortgage 6 per cent Bonds.
DUE JULYI, 1896.

We have bought s633,0OO Maine
Central Consol. As, due 1912, and
offers the holders of Leeds and Far
mington 6's, the opportunity to ex-
change the same for the former on
the following favorable terms.
On or before Nov. 10Th, 1895, we
will deliver Maine Central Consol. 4's
at par, and prepay the interest due
April lst, 1896, at 4 per cent per an
mum for the unexpired time, receiv-
ing in exchange an equal number of
Leeds and Pennington bonds, allow
ing par and 6 per cent accrued in
terest to date Of exchange.
The above is equivalent to selling
the Leeds & Pennington bonds on a
rs per cent interest basis, and OBJ
tanning the long consolidated As at
par, by using the premium obtained
on the former in purchasing the As.
We beg to call attention to the
fact that these 4 per cent bonds are
now practically first mortgage on
the road, as there will be only ST.
$4,000 outstanding when the
Leeds g. Pennington are converted |
out of total of $9,000,000, to take
the place of prior lien bonds; in five
years this balance will have been re-
tired and the consolidated mortgage
become first lien.
The saving in the interest charges
in the next few years is approxi-
mately 5000; this is in addition to
amount saved in 1894 of $4,000,
making a total OF nearly 100000 or
per cent ON the stock; increasing
the present net earnings to over
100000 or 10 per cent. on the capt.
tai; 6 per cent. is now paid, the bal
ance going to surplus und improve
ments.
We recommend the proposed ex-
change at this time, the holders
thereby obtaining long, choice Sc
curity at moderate cost.
The As not exchanged, as above,
will be offered to the public at an
advanced price.

Alternating Electric Currents. By Ed
win J. Huston, Phi D., and A. E. Ken
nelly, Sc. D. New York: W. J. John
ston Company. From the publisher.
This is the first of ten Volumes of an Ele-
mentary Electro Technical Series, de-
signed to give concise and authoritative
information concerning those branches of
electro-technical science having general
interest The subjects to be treated are
alternating currents, electric heating,
electro magnetism, electricity in electro
therapeutics, arc lighting, incandesoent
lighting, electric motors, electric street
railways, telephony and telegraphy. The
authors state that though the several vol
umes form a series, each is, nevertheless,
SO prepared as to be complete in itself,
and can be understo I'd Independently of
the others. Although the book is pri-
marily designed for the general public,
yet it should not fail to prove useful to
electricians generally and to elementary
electro technical students, and even of
interest to engineers, as disproving the
prevalent belief that it is impossible to
treat of alternating electric currents
without the use of higher mathematics
The book is profusely illustrated, printed
on paper of a fine quality, and substan-
TALLY bound in covers of special de.
sign.

Bret Harte will remember the story
called The Waif of the Plains, written by
him some years ago, in which the child
fSusy," whose pare nts were killed by
the Indians in an attack upo: an emf
grant train, was adopted by Colonel and
Mrs. Peyton. The boy Clarence Brant
also figures prominently in the story.
Later was published Susy, tale in
which the further fortunes of the child
are related-her school life, her firtations
with Clarence. her marriage. etc. The
present. story is the third of the series,
anu continues Clarence Brant's adven
lures in later life. The scene is laid at
the time of the Civil War. The hero is
an officer in the Union Army, and his
wife is Southern woman and an active
sympathizer with the South. Many are
the complications and exciting are the
adventures, and the result is a very en-
tertaining story, told as only Bret Harte
can tell a story. Susy appears again,
with her destinations and her tempers !;
