A MYSTERIOUS SUBJECT.

The long talked of paper by T. E. Peck, was read by the author before the members of the Stove club one evening last week. His subject was handled in the masterly style peculiar to the dis tinguished author, and sc completely mystified his large audience, that no two of them seem able to tell just exactly what he was talking about. However, the club and their friends, were highly entertained by Mir Peck's paper, and hope to hear from him again.

AN uncomfortable idea seems to be
prevalent among the republicans, to the
effect that a large part of Mr.. Hanna's
enormous election fund has been fooled
away and not placed where it would do
Mr.. Mckinley the most good, but given
to democratic boilers, who have no eff
tective strength, and that even much
of that entrusted to republican hands
for distribution has not left their own
pockets. So far as heard of, little, if
any of it, has been given to the negroes
who, in the South, constitute the only
really effective strength the republican
party has. The use of money at cleo
tons is potential, provided it be used
wisely; otherwise it acts as a very
boomerang.

TO-DAY'S TELEGRAPHIC NEWS


BALTIMORE, Oct. pa little inside
history of the deal for the sale of the
Seaboard and Roanoke Railroad to the
syndicate headed by Thomas F. Ryan,
OF New York, came tt. light this morn
ing, when it was learned that when the
final payment, which represented some
thing like a round million dollars, be.
came due the purchasers were not
ready with the cash. They found that
in the present unsettled state OF the
money market the required sum was
not SO easy to raise. They offered, it
is understood, to pay half of the amount
in cash, and asked for time On the bal
ance. To this proposition Louis McLane,
who is representing the pooling COM
mittee in the deal, declined to assent,
and the purchasers returned to New
York to look fer more ready money.
In the meantime they secured an ex-
tension Of time on the whole %transac-
ton. Thus the matter now stands, Mr..
McLane insisting that the whole amount
must be paid in cash before the pooled
stock is turned over to the Ryan syndi-
cate. Mr.. McLane has issued a circular
advising stockholders to pool their stock
with the committee of which he is the
head. 1t is not stated What price those
who pool their stock will receive, but it
will probably he something in the
~neighborhood Of Sl25. This will be S25
more per share than WAS received by
those who joined with General Gill in
selling their stock at par. Meanwhile
the air is filled with rumors that the
Louisville and Nashville Railroad Com
pany is after the Seaboard system, de-
string it for an outlet to the sea. Should
this be true it would not be improbable
for the Ryan syndicate to sell to this
company. Should the property pass
into the hands Of the Louisville and
Nashville the war of rates would be
permanently ended, and that lines
rivalry with the Southern would be
much more friendly than has been the
rivalry between the Southern and the
Seaboard Line. In any event rates will
be restored on the bay and the two
steamer lines will be consolidated and
operated under a single management.
1t is not believed that there will be any
further developments in the Seaboard
affair until the latter part ofnext week.
