President Cleveland Issues the Usual
Thanksgiving Proclamation.
Washington, Nov. 5.-The following
proclamation has been ISSUED by the
president: ...-.-..
by the President Of the Tinted States:
The people of the United States should
never be unElfndful Of tho gratitude they
owe the God of nations for His watchfuI
care which has shielded them from dire
disaster and pointed out to them the way
Of peace and happiness. Nor should they
ever refuse to acknowledge. with contrite
hearts their :proneness to turn away from
Gods teachings and to follow with sinful
pride after their own devices. To the end
that these thoughts may be quickened. it
is fitting that on day especially appointed
we should join together in approachin the
throne Of grace with praise and supplica-
ton.
Therefore, l. Grover Cleveland, presi.
dent of the United States, do hereby desig.
nate and set apart Thursday, the 26th day
Of the present month Of November to be
kept and observed as day of thanksgiv-
ing and prayer throughout our land. On
that day let every people forego their usual
work and occupation and assemble in their
accustomed places of worship. let them
with one accord render thanks to the
Ruler of the universe for our preservation
as q nation and our deltverance from
threatened danger; for the peace that has
..welt within our boundaries:- for our de-
Tense against disease and pestilence dur
ing the year that has passed: for the plen-
teous rewards that have followed the
labors OF our hilsbandmen, and for all the
other blessings that have been vOuchsafed
to US. And let US, through the media ton
Of Him who has taught US how to pray
implore the forgiveness Of our sins and a
continuation Of Heavenly favor. Let us
not forget on this day of thanksgiving the
poor and needy: and by deeds Of charity
let our offerings Of praise be made more
acceptable in the sight Of the Lord.
Witness my hand and the seal Of the
United States which / have caused to be
hereunto affixed.
Done at the city Of Washington this
fourth day OF; November in the year of our
Lord one thousand eight hundred and
ninety-six and of the independence of the
United States of America the one hundred
and twenty-ffst. -:

Close OF the Campaign and Its Result
Helps Trade.
New York, NOV. 7.-R. G. Dun & Co.
in their weekly review of trade say:
"a great revolution has been effected
this week In the conditions which control
business. 1t could not be in any fair de-
gree reflected as yet in transactions or in
records. but there is ample evidence al
ready that crushing weight has been
lifted and rolled away, and the business
world has adjusted itself to a state Of
freedom and security which 1t has not
known for years. and new contracts in
volvinR many millions have become bind
Ing since the election. The rush for stocks
on Wednesday lifted the average for all
railways $.16 per share In single day
and trust stocks $1G. and In many of the
most active the advance was so sudden
that heavy sales for realizing caused some
reaction. The Wild advance Of over 3
cents In wheat on Monday and Wednesday
was also followed by realizing and de-
cline on Thursday. But the instant van
1sh1ng OF the premium on gold, which had
reached about per cent, the unlocking of
many millions which had been boarded.
the collapse Of the interest rate from 8
and IL to 6 and 81 per cent. and the quick
demand for American securities on foreign
account are signs Of more lasting promise.
1T was not strictly logical that wheat
advanced cents, and heavy realizing Of
growing disposition appears among farm
crs to- hold wheat for better prices than
arc now realized. although at present any
advance checks buying for export. Spec
ulation In cotton was also excited on the
theory that mills would now start up and
would meet a large demand for goods
But the advance was met by realizing sales
and a slight reaction. 1t will be all the
better for business If bright hopes do not
hoist prices too fast.
1.-The election Immediately stifrened prices
OF pig Iron, which reached 81 at Pitts
burgh for Bessemer, and the certainty that
many large orders for buildings and bridges
and other finished forms would now be-
come operative justifles some advance. The
future of this trade depends upon the ex-
tent OF increase in demand for finished
products of iron and steel. which is like
ly to be materially affected by the course
pursued by various combinations. :
Failures for the week have been 230 In
the United States. against $50 last year.
and e in Canada. against 40 last year."

PERSONAL AND POLITICAL.

The latest returns from the election
show that William Mckinley has car
ried "a states for the presidency. These
states are the following, with the elect
oral votes of each state: California, 9;
Connecticut, 6; Delaware, 8: Illinois,
24;' Indiana, IS; Iowa, 13: Maine, 6;
Maryland, S; Massachusetts, IS; Mich
;gan, IA; Minnesota, 4; New Hampshire,

North Dakota, 3; Ohio, %; Oregon, 4;
Pennsylvania. 50; Rhode Island. 4;
South Dakota, 4; Vermont. 4; West
Virginia, 6; Wisconsin. ~; Wyoming,
1. Total, 265. Kentucky and Tennessee
are still in doubt. McKinley's plurality
OF the popular vote appears to be over
100000 the largest ever given presi-
dental candidate. In Illinois Tanner
(rep.) defeats Altgeld (dem.) for gov
ernor by over 100000 plurality. Michi-
gan, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Indiana
also elect republican governors. The
next house will probably stand as fol-
lows: Republicans. 2O1; democrats,
1874; populists, 10. The senate will be
about equally divided.
William j. Bryan sent the following
dispatch to Mr.. Mckinley: Senator
Jones has informed me that the re-
turns indicate your election, and l
hasten to extend my congratulations.
We have submitted the issue to the
American people and their will is law
Later returns from the election do not
justify any change in the division of the
electoral vote between Maj. Mckinley
and Mr.. Bryan as previously printed,
which gave 264 to Mckinley and 167 to
Bryan and left in doubt. The doubt
full votes are those Of Kentucky and
wyoming. The result in these two
states is so close as to require on official
count to decide it. The popular vote in
the several states give Mckinley plu-
rality of 939,216. The present indica-
tions are that the next congress will be
divided on the currency as follows:
House Sound money, 215; silver, 142.
Senate Sound money, 43; silver, q. q
