CZAR AND CZARINA.
Receive dWith Great Enthusiasm on
Arriving at MarseilleS.

PARIS, Oct. S.-The weather to-day
was bright mild and altogether spring
like. The Car and Czarina drove to
the Louvre at IL O'Clock this morning
and remained an hour examining the
pictures and sculpture. Their majesties
were accompanied by President Faure.
The route of the imperial visitors
through the streets was less thronged
with people than was the case yes

counties gave Democratic majorities
aggregating 1,45O in 1892. The indi-

DEMOCRATIC FIGURING.
Chairman Jones Thinks Bryan's Elec-
tion q Certainty.

CHICAGO, Oct. SIT is officially an
nounced that the Democratic managers
are well pleased with the results of cleo
tions in Georgia and Florida. They say
that they would be satisfied with a ma
jority of $1,000 in Florida and of 10000
III Georgia, considering the conditions
existing in those States, but their pri-
vate advices indicate 10000 majority in
Florida and $4,000 in Georgia, with a
possibility that these figures may be in
creased when the full returns are in.
Secretary Walsh received very pleas
ant news from Iowa In letter from Des
Moines which reads as follows: "The
following prominent Republicans have
come out for Bryan and free silver in
Des Moines this week: Rev. B. 0. Ayles-
worth, President of Drake University;
Rev. H.. 0. Breeder, pastor Christian
Church; Rev. DR.. Tilden, pastor First
Baptist; Judge Spurrier, Judge County
Court; w. w. Lyons, prominent real
estate dealer; Col. d. NJ. Fox, President
Tippecanoe Club, and many others, 100
in all this week. The Republicans here
are desperate"
Chairman Jones gave out the follow
ing statement regarding the Georgia
election: THE Georgia election means
that the solid South as we'll as the solid
West will cast it's vote for Mr.. Bryan.
Considering the fact that Republicans,
Populists and Prohibitionists were ar
rayed against the Democratic ticket
majority of 10000 would have been
deemed a great victory, yet we have
doubled that figure 1t means $1,000 or
G5, 600 majority for Bryan in November.
1t shows that the people cannot be dl-
verted from our great cause by local or
national issues of less Importance. l am
confident that Bryan will carry every
Southern and Western State, as we'll as
a large proportion of the Central West
ern States, thus assuring him an over
whelming majority in the electoral col
lege."

Spain is still in a state of ferment
and the feeling against the United
States is growing rather than abating.
1t was with the greatest difficulty that
the civil authorities were able to pre-
vent the infuriated mobs at Valencia
from wrecking the American consulate
yesterday. The Spanish government is
not to blame, for it is doing its best to
preserve order. but these mobs are in
a fair way to making bankrupt Spain
put up a pretty penny in indemnity
charges. The only feeling Americans
have toward Spain is one Of pity for the
impotent rage Of its foolish and mis-
guided people.

From these figures, says The Wool
and Cotton Reporter. cit will be seen
that the totals of sheep in the States
named are almost equal to those Of
five years ago, whatever may have been
the fluctuations of the sheep industry
in the past year or two. These figures
for 1895 can be relied upon as essen
italy accurate, and have been secured
by us at no little expense"
In other words, despite the Harrison
Sherman Mckinley Billion Dollar
Congress financial panic Of 1884, from
the effects of which the country has
yet scarcely recovered and despite the
calamity bowling of the political shep-
herds which caused many foolish wool
growers throughout the country to
abandon. or sell, or slaughter, their
focks, the number of sheep in the
United States under one year of free
wool has become as great as in the
prosperous sheep raising year of 1890,
before the Mckinley iniquity began TO
get i'm its work upon the focks by plac-
ing such a tax on foreign wool. which
American wooden manufacturers must
have for mixing purposes at any cost,
that that industry, the only customer
of the American wool grower. was
forced to the wall. TO revive under the
bene6cient operation of free wool.
Under this boom the American wooden
industry has reached a height OF pros
perity never before attained in this
country and the American wool grower,
despite many other adverse circum-
stances. for which the new tariff is in
no way responsible, has reaped no mean
share of the profits, even though. ow-
ing to the adverse circumstances we
have spoken of. the prices of wool and
mutton are. with all other farm pro-
ducts. still low.

here and Canada last month is seen
to be of moderately bullish character,
whereas. at first sight, in comparison
with the falling of in February one
year ago. it appeared quite the reverse.
The total Of domestic and Canadian
available wheat stocks March l, 9S,SS4,-
GOO bushels, is about 1900. 600 bushels
smaller than on March 1 one year ago,
1000. 900 bushels smaller than on March
1. 1894. and about 100000 bushels
less than on March l, 1898, so that the
existing wheat available is the smallest
quantity held on March 1 for three
years. Conuasted with stocks held on
the like date in 1892, the increase is
80. OOO. 600 bushels, and compared with
those on the like date in 1891 47,0O00 900,
nearly 100 per cent.
The total quantity Of wheat avail
able for immediate distributor in the
United States and Canada, both coasts,
plus the quantity aloat for Europe
from all exporting countries, on March
l. added to available stocks in Europe
is 154,O42 GOO bushels against 17O,6S5,-
GOO last year, 1S4.16,OOO in 1894, 49,,
Isl. 600 in 1893 and 145,615,OOO in 1892
But Bradsreet's says: 1T is evident
the extraordinarily heavy falling off in
supplies of wheat in January and Feb
ruary. 1895, has not been even approx
mated. the two months' decrease of
a year ago about 100000 bushels,
being i'm contrast with two months de-
crease this year of only 100000 bush
els In view of this, the change in the
total of the worlds supplies of available
wheat during February, 1896, is not as
marked as anticipated and in this re-
spect the months summary of the
worlds wheat totals is less satisfactory
to holders than anticipated"

REAR ADMIRAL Wake.

New York, March S.-Rear Admiral
Henry Wake died at his home in
Brooklyn at 3:05 this afternoon.
Henry Wake was born in Virginia
So years ago. His father. Anthony
Wake. was a college student at Yale
with John c. Calhoun When quite
young the deceased was taken to Ohio,
receiving his education at the Chilli
Gothic academy. In 1872 he became a
midshipman in the navy, being assign
ed to the frigate Alert, under the COM
mand of Lieutenant Farragut.
He was present at the surrender of
Vera Cruz, during the Mexican war, be-
ing executive officer of the brig Vesu
vius. During the war of the rebellion
he commanded the gunboats Taylor and
Lexington, and protected General
Grants army while it was making its
retreat on the transports. He was also
at the battle of Fort Henry in charge OF
the gunboat Carondolet. He was sue
cessful in getting the Carondolet past
Island Number Ten on April 4.'1S62,
while the enemy's shots fell on IL like
hail. For this piece of work the COM
mander was hOnorably mentioned. In
1862 for his bravery he was made a
Captain: in 1866 Commodore, and
Rear Admiral in 1870 One year later
he retired, having the proud distinction
OF being the first officer to do so volun-
tarily to give the younger men a
chance.
Rear Admiral Wake had been suffer
ing since Tuesday last from severe at
tack Of the grip, but the immediate
cause of death was heart failure. Mr..
White, the family physician, had very
little hopes of his recovery and the fam
lily was prepared for the worst. For
some time before he passed away he
was unconscious. The deceased's wife
and family were at his BEDSIDE when
he expired. He leaves a widow, three
sons and two daughters.

A HARD MAN TO FIGHT.

Should Mr.. Olney ever be President,
he will be President in fact. They say
that he is the only one of the cabinet
who does not yield to the strong per-
sonality of Mr.. Cleveland. Lawyers
who have been in cases against him
say he is a hard man to fight Deny
ing not his ability, they are nettled
sometimes by his masterful ways. He
has impressed himself on the admins
tration as no other man has done.
Should he be Mr.. Cleveland's successor,
he will have his way as Mr.. Cleveland
has had his. He is born gentleman.
Politicians will not control him. Lit
tie regard will he have for small poll
tics. His rugged personality, his in
tense convictions, his steadiness Of pur-
pose his uncompromising honesty will
make of him such a President as was
Andrew Jackson. He is born fighter,
and the words that have lately been
used By another of himself fifty describe
Richard Olney-"progressive and ag-
gressive.
