ON THE STOCK EXCHANGE.

Friday October ESP. m.
An easier market for foreign exchange led to
covering OF short contracts and the majority OF
stocks enjoyed smart rally. There no out
side in terest In the market and no news develop
ments Of Importance to influence values, although
in several stocks advances were accelerated by
favorable trade reports: but the general advance
was based entirely upon lower exchange. which
caused rebuyng by the bear element. The de-
mand for excnange was light and the general con-
dition Of the market was not materially changed,
the ease coming from the light demand, and the
supply Of bills being sufficient to meet current re-
quirements The greater part OF the demand FOR
the weeks remittances vas supplied yesterday at
higher figures and to-day's reaction cannot be
considered OF any significance The same thing
occurred last week and the course Of the market
indicates that rates are kept as near the gold
shipping point possible. or at point to give
drawers Of exchange top figures while holding
suffi rient exchange to prevent gold exports from
being made. Absence OF any large buying In the
anthracite shares has been somewhat pronounced
in the last few days, and there is considerable
speculation as TO the attitude of heavy interests

TURN THE TABLES.

Governor Matthews. the Journal has
reason to believe, dislikes the PROPOSE
ton to require him to divide the truss
tees of the six benevolent institutions,
eighteen in ali, equally between the two
parties. It puts him very much be-
tween the devil and the deep sea, be-
cause half of the institutions must have

publicans. To decide which shall be con-
trolled by majority of Democrats and
which by a majority of Republicans will
make the Governors official life bur-

sideration and reinforce the number of
personal foes he now has in his own
party because he could not give them

papers, and their readers must have
been surprised If there has been an issue
of either in which Governor Matthews
has not been assailed in some manner.
In all the world there is no spite SO
venomous as that of the disappointed
Democratic place seeker of the 7x9
variety. In making these new boards
one Democrat on every boards must be
dropped, and two on some of them. I'M
less he drops the whole. In his magma
ton Governor Matthews must already
hear the wailing and the cursing of
the scores of disappointed whom such
a law must make.
On the other hand, had the appoint
ments of these boards been taken out
of Governor Matthewss hands he would
have posed as the reseuer of the Con-
stitution, even If to do SO he would have
convicted his party legislatures of be-
ing persistent nullifiers of that instru-
ment. He would have taken up the
ISSUE asked the Democratic Supreme
Court to sustain him, and the court
would probably have done So Whether

while the Republicans would have been
defeated after abandoning the ground
occupied for third of a century.

acquitted themselves with more than
credit on that most bloody of battle
fields With forty-five organizations,
Ohio has appropriated. sos. 900, and her
monuments are already in place. Wis
consin. Minnesota, Michigan, Pennsyl-
vania and even Kansas, with one regi-
ment in the battle, have appropriated
$4,000, $4,000 and other amounts CORE
spending to the number of organiza-
tions which represented these States in
the conflict.
Indiana had thirty-seven organizations
in the battle of Chickamauga, probably
the largest number of any State in pro-
portion to its population. Indiana has
not yet voted dollar to build a monu-
ment in honor of her valorous sons. A
commission has marked the positions in
a manner which calls forth the COM.
mendation of General Boynton. bill
is now well advanced in both branches
of the Legislature sappropriating $4,000
for the erection of suitable monuments
to tell to the world the conspicuous
part Indiana took on that historic field
Thus far it has met with no opposition,
and it should meet with none. Such a
heritage of valor and sacrifice as In
diana's sons who fought and died at
Chickamauga bequeathed to a State for
all time is too precious to be measured
by a few thousand dollars when that
service is to be commemorated.

EXERCISED HER PRIVILEGE.
Chicago Belle Changed Her Mind and
Married the Other EeIInxx

CHICAGO. Feb. ga romantic story
which is agitating tra-fashionable circles
in Chicago is developed by the hurried mar
riage, at Milwaukee, last night, of Miss
May Belle Benson and Allen L. Howard
Miss Benson, who lived with her mother, in
Michigan boulevard at Thirtieth street, and
is member of of the most exclusive
social sets in the city. had for some time
been engaged to Seth A. Crane, prominent
New York society man, and well-known Off
cial of the New York Central railroad The
marriage was to have occurred last Monday
night, and the invitations were out. Mr.
Crane arrived from New York last Sunday.
On his arrival, Miss Benson and her mother
requested an interview with the groom-elect,
and the young woman confessed to him
that her affections had been given to young
Howard, at the same time protesting her
willingness To marry Crane If he insisted
The fearful interview resulted in Crane gem
erously releasing Miss Benson from her en-
gagement. She and young Howard decided
to be married in Milwaukee Immediately
Crane went back to New York without his
bride, and Chicago society is all agog over
the cancelled wedding invitations.

INDIANA AT CHICkAMAuGA.

In this issue is printed letter from
Gen. H. V. Boynton, an Ohio soldier,
in which he paws glowing tribute to
Indiana regiments in the battle of
Chickamauga. No State in the Union
has made record in one battle which
exceeds that which, in point of numbers
and valor, Indiana made on that bloody
field. Her sons paid full share of that
which is the price of yalor and devo-
ton on the field of carnage. Briefly as
General Boynton has told this story of
the loyalty and valor of Indiana regi-
ments in that decisive battle. he has
told Ii in a manner which will fill the
hearts of the sons and daughters of In
diana to-day with elation.
AS is well known. the federal govern
ment has made the field of Chicka-
manga national park. Other States
have already taken the initiative in
appropriating money for monuments to
mark the places where their regiments
