MISS ANTHONY ANGRY.
Violent Attack on President Eliot,
of Harvard.

ROCHESTER,, N. Y, Jan. 15.-Miss
Susan B. Anthony is much incensed at
the criticisms of President Eliot, of
Harvard university and Bishop Doane,
Of Albany, on her call for the twenty
eighth annual convention of the Amer
lean Woman Suffrage association in
Washington, Jan. % to %. Miss An
thCny said today:
The first and only time ever saw Presi-
dent Eliot was at the convention of all the
superintendents of schools in the United
States. Before that great audience President
Eliot declared that it was not in the interests
of American patriotism or loyalty to have
women teachers in the schools. Then
formed my idea of the man, and l have not
changed 1t. Regarding the criticism that I
have in any way distorted his letter, it is not
true. 1t is harmful to the nation to have such
a man Mr.. Eliot at the head of such a
great institution Harvard university. His
views are naturally impressed ON the minds
Of the students, and the country is worse off
for it. In my mind, Mr. Eliot is not an
American of whom a true patriot should be

WILNOT FELL DOWN.
Second Time He Has Had That Ex-
Dcrience.

Surprises seem to be in order, and every
game in the balk line tournament at Foley S
springs one of some kind or other. Walter
Wilmot has been the victim of two, one at
the hands of Harrison last week. He thought
his game as good as won when Harrison ran
sXty-nine on him, and beat him out six bill
lizards. Last night he thought he had
his game well in hand, having gained his
handicap and fourteen points to the good at
the beginning of the thirty second inning.
When it came Capen's turn to play he made
several pretty all-round-the-table draws, and
this got them in the corner He drove back
and forth, in and cut, until he completed his
required number, thirty-eight at which time
he had them in as good position at any
time, leaving Wilmot at al. This is the
largest run Capen ever made in public at the
l4-inch balk line. Wilmot had the following
doubles: 81, 10, II, q, and averaged nearly
B. Capens doubles: 10, &C. II, II and 49, and
averaged So. This evening the game will be
Wilmot, $50; Thayer. $50.

auctions of Fares.
CHICAGO, Jan. 15.-The roads of the
Central Traffic associat ton have agreed
on rates for the Mardi Gras at New Or
leans. They will add 80 per cent of
double locals to whatever rates their
Southern connections may tender them
from the nearest Ohio river gateways.
Chairman Caldwell, of the Western
Passenger association has handed down
ruling to the effect that when the
roads in the association have agreed
on reduced rate for any event, it is
not permissible for any road or any
number of roads in any portion Of the
association territory to get together
and say that they will make a rate
lower than that agreed upon by all the
roads in the association. This rule is
to stand, no matter if the roads so
agreeing control all the business in the
territory into which they have decided
that the reduced rates may prevail.

Outcome of Trouble of Long Stand

NEW YORK, Jan. 15.-Notice of suspension

bishop of the Valley of Mexico, has just been

between the bishops of the church which has
existed almost from the time when Bishop
ago. 1t was contended that his consecra-
ton was not in accordance with the laws of
the church and he resigned in 1880. He after
wards maintained that his resignation was
not a legal one, and continued to exercise the
duties of his office.

B. N. Austin, of the Northern Pacific,
has been agreed upon to arbitrate a
slight difference existing between the
Omaha and Albert Lea lines on pas

The Omaha people wish to insert
rates to the South based on interior
junction points like Dubuque and Mar

entered mild protest on the ground
that the stations named are not avail
able junction points for through travel
and the rate sheets have therefore been
held. Mr.. Austin will probably decide
the matter in few days.

$50 on September 9Th last to $32 464, 400 De-
cember 5th, shows signs of halting; the de-
crease for the week ending December u
being $S5S. .050 This contraction was brought
about mainly through the enormous extern
sion in loans. The increase in loans is the
largest reported since election and is in
itself striking evidence of the present
workings of the low money market. On
November 7th the total loans of the New
York banks were $A2, 179,700. The total
for the week just ended was $4S3. 50S. 800
showing an expansion of 81. .323. 500 in about
one month. The growth for the past week
was almost thirty per cent of the whole.
But 1t Is probably true that part of this
unparalleled increase come from other
sources than those arising from CONNER
cial demands. The sterling exchange op-
erations, on which local capital is being
used abroad. figure in the loan column, al
though it would be late to dispute the fact
that the needs of trade have aided in bring
ing about the unprecedented upward move
ment which seemingly has not yet cul-
minated. The peculiar position which the
New York banks occupy today toward for
eign commercial centers is illustrated in
this statement.
The crop movement having virtually
closed, money is flowing into the New
York banks faster than 1t can be used and
the result is a remarkably busy market
How much money we received from abroad
during the late season of stringency can
not be estimated with accuracy. but our
enormous exports have made foreign ma
tions debtor to the United States, and in
stead of getting their money back in the
form of balances they are compelled to
borrow on this side to relieve stringent
conditions there This has never hap

important advances ranged from IA to
per cent. The market OF the week has at
frequent intervals been characterized by
spells OF dullness, taxing the power of
description. The disposition of important
interests toward a temporary policy of in
action has been more clearly manifested,
as the week progressed, but while prices
have moved irregularly within a narrow
range, any serious break has been averted
through the extreme ease in money. In

clearing up of the general business and
financial outlook, have displayed an in
