During the Early Session Stocks Were
 Characterized by Weakness

New York June 3.-Stocks during the
 early session to-day were characterized
 by weakness, but in no case did the de-
 cline amount to as much as a point
 London and the foreigners generally
 were sellers of our securities, the pas sage o. the Butler anti-bond bill and
 the activity of the free silver men hay
 ing been unfavorably construed abroad,
 The foreign sales included St. Paul, Louisville x Nashville and Reading by
 London, and Kansas X Texas, Texas
 Pacilie, Erie & Chicago and Northern
 Pacific bonds by Berlin and Amster-
 dam. In the aggregate, however, the sales were only moderate in volume
 and in an ordinarily active market
 would not have been oticed.
 The loss during the morning hour
 was equal to A@7s per cent, Sugar,
 Leather preferred, the Changers, Gen
 eral Electric and Louisville & Nash Vile leading. When the shorts discov- cred that very little long stock was coming out they tried to cover and the decline noted was generally recovered. The upward movement was stimulated by Washington advices that the house Will kill the Butler bill; the small en- gagement of gold for shipment to
 Europe tomorrow and the favorable report oc the Rock Island road for the year. Bay State Gas was the feature, and jumped from 23A to 27 on state
 ments that the objections of the gov
 ernor of Massachusetts to the pipe line
 bill will be provided for and a new
 measure substituted Sugar and Lea
 ther preferred wer notably firm in the
 late trading, and the Grangers and h. ternationals were in better request Metropolitan Traction dropped to 105a, while Manhattan ranger between 101B and 1O27s.
 Near the close Tobacco broke to 63%, against 651a at the opening. The slump was due to reports of another cut in the price of plug. Speculation closed about firm in tone Net changes show gains of 1s@% per cent. Bay State Gas, however, advanced 3A per cent.
 Bonds were weak and lower. Sales footed up $S22,0O0

The Columbia of the Hamburg American line, takes out this week on Thursday, June 4, half hundred pas sengers who make up party gather ed under the auspices of the Boston Congregationalist to travel through England and Holland for six weeks of the present summer. There are many points of interest in both of those coun- tries associated with the rise and growth of the Congregational denomi- nation; among them are Plymouth, OK ford, Scrooby, Norwich, London and Leyden. The National Council of Con- gregational Churches has heartily in- dorsed this project and appointed at its meeting in Syracuse last autumn a committee of prominent men to repre- sent the churches of this country at an important celebration in Gainsborough three weeks hence, when English and American Congregationalists will join in laying the corner stone of a church there, which is to perpetuate the first fully formed Congregational church in England On this occasion Ambassa- dor Bayard is to deliver an address. So much interest in the coming of this del- egation of Americans has been aroused in England that a cooperating com mittee has been at work there with a view to making the visit of these Amer jeans pleasant and profitable. Many social courtesies and special privileges will be extended.
 It will be widely representative company that will sail for England on the Columbia, June 4, as the members of the Congregationalist's English pill grimage. In the first place, a national character is given to the party by the fact that ten states are represented in it's membership. Naturally New Eng land furnishes the largest proportion. there being several representatives from each of the four states of New Hampshire. Massachusetts, Rhode Isl-

ALMOST COMPLETE.
Arbitration Treaty Plans Between the Two
Nations Rounding Out.

The negotiations between the United States
and Great Britain for treaty OF general ar
(vtfalioR, coyaring all subjects OF difference
Between the two Engilsh-spcaking nations,
present and prospective. has advanced to n
stage of completeness far beyond what the
public has had reason to believe. The pur-
pose OF Secretary Olney and Sir Julian
Pauceiote is to conclude the negotiations
within the next three weeks. All the sub
stantial features OF the treaty have been
agreed on. From the present status OF the
negotiations IL Il believed the following will
be the important terms Of the treaty:
First-A term OF five years from the date
OF the exchange OF ratification within which
the treaty shall be operative.
Second-A court Of arbitration OF six mem
bcrs, three to be drawn from the judiciary
OF the United States and three from the
judiciary OF Great Britain.
Third-The submission 10 this tribunal Of
all differences between the two nations now
pending or to rise within the period OF Ave
years. this not TO include the Bering sea
question, now before indepeud dent commits
sions, but to include the question OF the
boundary between Alaska and British North
America.
The completion Of this treaty will mark an
important epoch in the relations between
the two English speaking nations, and, in
the Judgment Of those who have been most
identified with the cOnsummatiG n, II will be
the most important document OF "a peaceful
character IN the history OF their mutual
dealings. The president made IA passing
Illusion to the subject In his recent message.
IL had been understood. however, that the
main purpose OF Mr.. Olney was To reach m
agreement a. TO Venezuela, and that, having
accom- plished this, the larger question of ar
bitrating all differences would require con-
siderable time for its complete developement
But the negotiations have proceeded with
surprising unanimity, 80 that those engaged
In the work confidently believe that IL will
DO fnlly agreed upon, and that the signature
OF the contracting parties placed TO the docu-
ments within three weeks. This will give
fully two months for the consideration and
ratification OF the treaty at the present ses-
sion OF the United States senate, and unless
some unexpected obstacle should arise in
that quarter there Is every reason TO antici-
pate that the treaty may be made effective
before the close OF the present administra-
tion Al least this Is the confident hope and
expectation OF those most concerned in the
negotiations.

IND|ASUH ERING FROM FAMINE.
PURE GREED IS TO BLAME.
Grain Enough and to Spare, but Held at
Exorbitant Prices

Starving Indias misery fills the reports
just received by Rev. DR.. James L. Barton,
secretary OF the Foreign Department OF the
American Board Of Missions, and Rev. FL
nathan e. Strong. its editorial secretary.
From eight missions in India" said DR..
Barton, 1--WE have accounts Of suffering be-
yond description. Tho severity OF the famine
does not indicate that there IL no food in
India, but that "A scarcity in one section has
raised prices beyond the earning power OF
the people. Wage earners there earn about
a penny u day. On that they live In ordinary
times. Now, with the cost Of food raised two
or threetold, they cannot pos s'bly live on
their wages
"Great masses OF the population OF India
nre on the verge Of starvation, even in the
best Of times. Millions must die for want Of
the grain that dealers are holding In granaf-
les Tor high prices.
" The Government should do all Il can
Since the famine OF ls71-7S. 1t has been
prepared for another by planning res ervoirs
roads and other public works. These are TO
