Gloomy weather and the earlier fall
ing shades of night increase the long
ing for everything suggestive of bright
ness and sunshine, so flowers and light
are to the fore for the dinner table and
the parlor.
In shades for candles, lamps and cleo
trio lights come dainty novelties in soft
white material and lovely lowered
silks. The effect Of colored silk, as we
all know. is wonderfully softening and
improving to people and things alike.

WEEKLY MARKET LErTgR.
Downing, Bopkins . company.s Review
OF Trade.

The week closes on firmer wheat mar.
kets, based primarily on decided feel.
ing that the liquidation of long wheat
had run its course for the present. That
this liquidation has been completed is
not to be doubted, and legitimate laws
will once more control the market.
Foreigners have been liberal buyers Of
wheat in all positions in our market
during the decline. Expert sales are
large both for prompt and deferred ship
ment The interor milling demand
has been rather disappointing but
shows some sign of improvement. The
point to be considered as most worthy
of attention when considering the
price of wheat is, that the conditions
of supply and demand which caused the
advance to over Soc still exist with even
increased force. Such being the case,
wheat should prove profitable pur-
chase after this severe break, due to
speculative stampede entirely unwar-
ranted by facts. One popularity in
the situation has been the Liverpool
market. When Chicago closed weak,
Liverpool would come from u to Id
higher the next morning, and vice
versa when we closed strong, conse-
quently the people who have been In
the habit of taking their cue from the
action of foreign markets. have been
sadly at sea. May wheat at Chicago
closed on Saturday at nc, gain of 40
from the lowest point reached during
the late decline, and Sc better than
the closing price weak ago.
In the corn market prices are nearly
unchanged from what they were
week ago. 1t is difficult task to say
anything new Of corn that could pos
sibly be OF interest to the trade. Ev-
eryone knows about the big crop OF
1896, and how unwieldly an output
1t was, and how hard it is to lift the
price. 1t will take something artificial
to do it, and that is not even proba-
bility, for the reason that legitimate
arguments for present prices are found
in such superabundance as to render
any attempt at manipulation an inn

A stirring and very personal deb

A stirring and very personal debate
took place in the senate at Salem
Thursday afternon. 1t arose primarily
over the question Of clerks, but it took
a broader range, and covered the entire
ground Of the legislative hold-up and
the candidacy Of Senator Mitchell.
just after the senate met in the after
noon, Reed introduced the following
resolution:
Whereas, the organization Of the
legislature has not yet been perfected
and public business is being retarded
and necessary legislation, such as ap-
preparations for public purposes, abol-
ishment of useless and expensive com
missions and other legislation promised
the people of this state by all political
parties, is being denied by the refusal
OF certain persons elected to the house
OF representatives to qualify; and
Whereas, notwithstanding the facts
aforesaid, and the fact that this senate
is practically transacting no public
business and there is no work for senate
committee clerks to do, there is, never
theless now employed by the senate
committees, at public charge, large
number of clerks; and
Whereas, None of the said clerks
are engaged in the discharge Of any
public duty, and there is no probability
of their services being Immediately re-
quired; therefore, be it
Resolved, That all clerks Of senate
committees be, and they are hereby,
discharged, and no compensation shall
be allowed any such clerk from and af-
ter this date. unless the employment
be hereafter authorized by the senate
after perfect organization Of the legis-
lature shall have been secured"
Senator Dufur made quite lengthy
speech in which he set forth his posi-
tion on questions of economy. He was
followed by Driver and Michel and a
number of others, some of whom had
amendments to the resolutions as pre-
sented. A vote was finally reached.
The amendments were cleared away,
one by one, and the ayes and noes be-
ing called on the original question, but
one dissenting vote was cast. The
president voted no, more in spirit of
jest than anything.

CONVENTION TALL
Protestant Episcopal Clergy
Will Meet in May
This Year.
BISHOP sTARKEY's JuRIsDIc rIoN
Rector TROOPS Dismissal Will
Be Discussed and the New
Cathedral Scheme.
BISHOP sTARKEY'S JURISDICTION

The Protestant Episcopal churches in
the Diocese of Newark will hold their an
nual convention a little earlier this year
than last. 1t will take place the first
week in June and unless the plans are
changed in the meantime it will be held
in Paterson.
There is a large mass of important mat
ters to come before the convention and
some of these are of a character which
will inevitably precipitate a lively dis
cussion. The principal question, it is said,
will be the question of Rev. Montgomery
Hunt TROOPS dismissal from st. Mat
thew's Church, Jersey City, by Bishop
Starkey
The deposed rector has many friends in
the diocese and they propose to bring the
subject on the floor of the convention.
Mr.. Throop himself will, it is also said,
explain his course with regard to the re-
bellious member Of the church and ask
that the convention shall uphold him.
There is some doubt about the right
even of the convention to question the
action of the Bishop. Some hold to the
old %canonical jurisdiction of the English
Court of Arches, which heard appeals
from the various churches against which
the Bishop had issued some mandate and
they urge that the convention has a right
to review the Bishops action at all times.
On the other hand many of the clergy
maintain that the Bishops power to re-
move, reinstate or appoint a priest Is
absolute and cannot be questioned and
any discussion in the convention is i'm
proper; the matter is ultra wires.
Whichever view Is correct there is one
thing certain and that is the troubles of
st. Matthew's Church will come before
the convention in some form and there
will be a sharp and hot debate over them.
Another matter of interest which 1t Is
anticipated will be discussed at the
gathering will be the establishment Of a
Cathedral Church for the diocese. Quite
a large number of the clergy and laity
think that a cathedral should be built.
having a chapter house for the holding. OF
conventions and the transaction OF the
growing business connected with the
diocese. As to the location of the pro-
posed cathedral there will be no end OF
differences of opinion. Newark Will want
it and SO will Jersey City. Then Paterson
is getting to be a big sort or a town ana
she must have a say. Should the plan be
adopted the site might be settled as one
clergyman proposed.
LET each town collect funds he said
to a News reporter, and that town or
city which subscribes the most should
have the honor of being designated the
cathedral city. Or, perhaps, a better way
would be to count noses and that city
which had the greatest number of mem
bers of the Protestant Episcopal Church
shall have the cathedral"
