Denver. Dec 1.-The splendid career OF
Cripple Greek may be repeated and posi-

greatest activity prevails among the min

There are now several hundred assess

There is a council of ministers-they

is the mouthpiece of his masters whims.

tritiing-a squabble in a comee-house. FOR
example-goes before the sultan personally.
Every appointment Is made and unrnade
by him. The minister of police is his chief
SDv and torturer. The minister Of ma
rine is his ally in colossal peculation. The
minister of the interior is p~erforce his
means OF securing as his own property
tho richest lands OF the empire, and thus
robhlng the state Of their returns IN
taxes. Except himself, nobody has any au-
th0rity. nobody has any rights, nobody

and that in case Of his deposition or sud

wealth. his great influence, and the hatred

tnree indisputable facts. There are Just
two really influential men IN Turkey. The
first Is Luftf AEha. bodv-servant and ad-
visor - the sultan. With this valet the
Cali0h n Islam takes counsel concerning
the domestic affairs Of Turkey and its re-

second is Ahul Huda. the sultan's private

vice in the royal mosques. In comparison
with this ignorant fanatic the council Of

THE CHAMBERLAIN BOOM.
Enthusiasm over Ashantee Expedition
-~secretary q Shrewd Advertiser.

Harold Frederic In New York Times.
There has been a very inspiring display
of popular enthusiasm over the hurried
preparations for the Ashantee expedition
which must be ascribed almost wholly 10
the prevailing excitement about much
larger martial possibilities. Usually these
small punitive expeditions are fitted up
and sent out with next TO no public
notice, but now England is quite stirred
up. and the papers cannot print enough
about Coomsssie and King Prempeh. The
army is particularly keen on the subject.
OF course, il has not forgotten that Vol
seley, Wood and Butler all made their first
ten-strike in a former Ashantee campaign.
but for the rank and file such an adven-
ture offers nothing but discomfort. ma
laria. and probable death by fever, and
yet the most furious volunteering zeal
has been displayed in every barracks in
England. The whole white force will be
a small picked body of about 30 men. a
score of the best fellows between a and
p years of age being selected from each
of a dozen or more regiments, but the est
Indian troops and $500 native porters swell
the column 10 impressive dimensions. II
is not expected, however. hat they Will
see much fighting. for the king. IL is be-
lieved. will certainly submit. The net re-
suit viii probably be a new set of medals
for the survivors and a deeper blotch OF
British red on the African map north OF
the gold coast.
The assiduous way that Chamberlain is
advertising himself over this and numer-
Gus other colonial matters does not escape
attention. Official letters from his depart
ment show that his secretaries are speak
ing of him as his eminence with awe, as
if he were barely subordinate to royalty
itself. and he prints these, every one.
Not William O'Brien himself had a finer
talent for getting his name into the news
papers. Even the casual press report that
the Duke and Duchess of York may go 10
Australia next year is turned into a peg
on which TO hang . note that Mr.. Cham
berlain's influence Is said TO have had a
good deal to do with this decision. AS
these dispatches said from the outset, ii
was this itch for popular advertisement
on Chamberlain part which gave to the
Venezuela matter its only possible show
of importance. The theory is that Sails
bury and the other Tory ministers sub
NIT 10 this noisy B-rummagem bounce in
colonial affairs as a price for Chamber
lain's acquiescence in domestic and con-
tinental affairs that they are more con-
cerned about. Some time there will come
a limit TO their patience.

church. has returned home. and Is 10 all

similar cases in his family; but this has
been disproved by subsequent iuvestga-
ton. Or. J. g.. Eagleson stated last night
that a full correspondence with Mr..

established the fact that there had never
been insanity in the family.

In the Early Trading on the stock Exs
 change Tendency ofPrices Was U ward.
 New York, Oct. 10.-Stoc 1s to-day were irregular and the transact ms sma fer than of late. Tn the cary trading the tendency of prices was upward, and an in pavement of 4 to 14 per cen-. took place. In the rise Union Pacific, the grangers, Sugar, Missouri Pacific, and Chicago Gas were most prom nent. Union Pacific sold up to 157s, ar1 the securities of the subsidiary lines ;n the system were also in better demand on reports that new reorganiza ion ccm- mittee is to be formed shortly. St. Paul and the other grangers were favLrably influenced by the splendid report of the former company for the first week of October. Sugar rose to 11)H.
 The trading in the railroad group was of small proportions, as .perarors are all at sea regarding the outcome of the negotiations now on foot looking to a settlement of the western rate war. The adyices to-day from Chicago about
 the matter were anything but peaceful. Nearer home trades had the conference of the trunk line representatives to watch, and up to the close of business details of the meeting were lacking.
 Bulls, however, felt encouraged, and the
 belief was that the trunk line people will devise means for the better mainte- nance of rates. The advance in the prices of anthracite coal by the New Jersey Central had a. good effect, es-
 pecially as 1t was reported the com panies intended to put up rates again in | the near future.
 Tn the afternoon an operator who was conspicuous in the break in General
 Electric few years ago, was given up | as a seller of Chicago Gas and other ac-
 tive issues. The result was decline of Ii to 1Ss per cent. Chicago Gas, Louis- vile and Nashville Atchison, the grangers, Reading and Tennessee Coal and Iron suffering the heaviest losses, Louisville and Nashville was sold down
 to 60% on the poor government cotton
 crop report for October.
 Near the close the shorts reduced their lines S0nleWnat, WHICH lIhpdEleu 1 steadier tone to the market. Net
 changes show losses of 4011s per cent l Leather preferred, however, fell from | S87s to St15@S2 on sales by holders whc had expected larger distribution ol | the company's surplus at this time. Bonds were irregular. Union Pacific issues were strong on talk of a speedy 1 reo,,o,a iza ffnn of the company Total sales were $13S05,000.
