NEW YORK LEGISLATURE.
Republicans Scratch Through With
a Majority of Eleven.

New York, Nov. 1O.-Chairman C. w.
Hackett of the Republican state COM
mttee has given out the following
statement concerning the organization
of the New York legislature:
The Republicans have elected a SUBJ
stantial majority in the next assembly.
and will organize that body The re-
turns, as canvassed officially this week.
make it certain that the Republican
votes in the next house will exceed the
Democratic by at least H. A Republi-
can will be elected speaker and Re
publican ideas of legislation will pre-
vail in the Legislation of the session.
The lower house will be in sympathy
with the Republican senate and the
Republican governor. The rumors Of
factiOnal differences and the claims of
Democrats which have been circulated
with the manifest purpose of confusing
the people of the state as to the poIfti-
cal complexion of the assembly are not
worthy Of serious consideration.
Eighty-One Republicans have been
elected to the assembly. Two of them
from New York City were nominated
by the Citizens Union. Their af1lia-
tons have always been with the Re
publicans. Doubtless. in considering
and acting upon the legislation affect
ing municipal affairs, they viii be
guided to some extent by the views of
those responsible for their nomination,
but ON questions involving party con-
siderations it is as absurd to suppose
that they will join the Democrats as
that the Democrats will rally under
their leadership.
There is nothing in the avowed prin-
ciples of the Citizens Union as I I'M
derstand them, which would compel
men holding the ideas of either great
party to abandon them and take up
those of their old-time opponents. Even
if such an absurdity were possible there
are still enough representatives to guar
antee that a Republican speaker will
preside and that the legislation will be
directed along the lines of established
Republican policy.

THE LATEST TRUST.
Manufacturers Of Insulated Wire
Form a Combine.

New York, Nov 1O.-The Herald will
tomorrow say: One of the biggest
combinations in the country is being
quietly organized and is expected to
be formally announced within a few
days 1t is the alliance of the COM
panies engaged in manufacturing insu-
lated wire and cables for electric pur
poses.
The magnitude of the combination is
realized when it is stated that more
than 81, SOC, 090C coo has gone into electric
railways, and perhaps two-thirds of
this amount into electric lighting dur
ing the past ten years, and both of
these industries require the outlay of
millions of dollars in insulated wires
and cables.
The present arrangement is to con-
solidate the interests of 10 or 20 of the
leading plants Several Of the prime
movers in the new enterprise are the
General Electric company, New York
Insulated Wire company, American
Electric Works, Safety Insulation and
Gable company, Okonite company and
Keyte and Habish factories.

Endorses Himself and Mckinley at
the Meeting of the Home Market
Club-Takes it For Granted That
the Dingley Bill is the Sole Cause
of the Increased Prosperity.

Boston, Nov. 10.-The annual dinner
of the Home Market club was held
at Mechanics hall tonight Fully LOCO
persons attended. The most distin7
guished guests were Congressman Mel
son A .Dingley of Maine; Congressman
Charles A. Russell, of Connecticut;
Congressman John P. Dolliver, Of Iowa,
and Senator Henry Cabot Lodge. Sen
ator Hanna sent a letter of regret,
after the reading of which three cheers
were given for him.
Congressman Dingley, in his address,
said:
"A great many people in this country
are wiser than they were five years
ago. Some, who study maXimS rather
than markets, deny that there has been
any restoration of confidence or any
revival of business. Others, who are
not entirely blind to facts, admit the
Improvement but insist that it comes
in spite of protection, from what they
call natural causes. Still others, like
Bryan, contend that the improvement
is only temporary, because of short
crop of wheat abroad, and that bust
ness will presently grow worse unless
we have 16 to l free silver.
Il leave our free trade friends to re-
concile their antagonistic eXplana
lions of the failure of their theories,
simply remarking that the common
sense of the people concludes that the
repeated coincidence between the pro-
tective policy and prosperity and be-
tween the overthrow of that policy and
adversely, established the relation of
cause and effect.
4 know that some of our free trade
friends claim to see in the result of
the recent elections evidences of popu-
lar dissatisfaction With President Nc
Kinley and the new protective tariff
When, however, it is considered that
a falling off of the aggregate vote has
always been an inevitable result of
the relaxation from an intense strain,
and that in every state in which an
election was held the Democratic man
ayers carefully avoided the tariff issue
and gained their only victory in a pro-
tective state through an absurd at
tempt to run two Republican candi-
dates for mayor of New York City
while the Republicans captured a pro-
lection United States senator in, Mary
land, heretofore arrayed against pro-
lection, it is difficult to see on what
grounds it can be justly claimed that
the result of the recent elections gives
any support to the claims that it shows
popular dissatisfaction with the sue
cessful administration of President
Mckinley or with the new protective
tariff

CHINESE WEDDING.
Bride Suspected as One of the Cali
fornia Grew.

Chicago, Nov. 10.-Chinese matrimony
promises to have a boom in Chicago
and vicinity, now that the celestials see
prospects OF Industrial openings in the
stockade mines of Northern Illinois.
The first marriage of the boom series
has already taken place. It was cele-
brated in Chinatown today with feast
ings, at which Chinese merriment was
ratified off at great pace on numerous
tom-toms and kettle drums.
The high contracting parties were
Laundryman Sam Young, of 37S West
Van Buren, street, and Miss Maud Long
OF San Francisco. The young woman
arrived mysteriously, and there were
rumors that she came into the state
with the first consignment of Chinese
miners forwarded to BraidWood, Ills,
by the powerful Chinese organization of
the Pacific coast. The twain had been
engaged for a long time, being known
to each other in San Francisco many
years ago.
The marriage ties were first tied in
south side justice court. The real mar
Nage ceremony was the elaborate feast
of bamboo-fddle music and Chinese
dainties, served up uninterruptedly for
20 hours, at Chinatown's SWEETEST res
taurant.

KLONDIKE SUPPLIES.
San Francisco Stirring Itself to Meet
Competition.

San Francisco, Nov. 10.-At a meet
ing of merchants and manufacturers
interested in securing the Alaskan
trade for this city, Captain Goodall a
member of the firm in which United
States Senator Perkins is interested,
stated that while supplies may be pur-
chased just as cheaply in this country
as in Canada, the purchaser will be
obliged to pay a duty of 20 per cent to
carry them through the British posses
sions. On the other hand, the opening
of Dyea and Skaguay as SUPPORTS of
entry, will allow him to purchase them
in Victoria and carry them on to the
mines duty free. He intimated very
broadly that the establishment of Dyea
as a SUPPORT of entry might have been
brought about by the influence which
Eli Gage, of the North American Trad
ing company, had with his father. the
secretary of the treasury. However that
might be, the privilege of bonding goods
entered there was an injustice to the
interests of citizens of the United States
and had been granted at the request of
the Canadian Pacific railroad. 1t was
ordered that the joint committee Of the
chamber of commerce. board of trade
and Merchants association E)e instruct
ed to draft resolutions calling on the
proper authorities to close the SUPPORT
of entry at Dyea, and to cooperate
with all the cities of the Pacific coast
to that end

following letter from Warden Wilcox:
The Indians have all gone and there
is not much to do at present but some
Mormons TO look after. During the

settle down to hunting again. This
practice has gone on for years. On Oct.

Paris, Nov. 1O.-The Soir says Sir
with Due de Clement de Cicerella, as
g. result of a dispute at Monte Carlo.
Swords have been decided upon as the
weapons. Both men, the paper adds,
are now in Paris in conference with
their seconds.
Sir Robert Peel is a grandson of the
famous prime minister of England
who died in 1850. The young man sue
ceeded to the title as fourth baronet
May 8. 1885. He is. 80 years of age,
and has already made, himself talked of
ON two continents by his fast life.
He has twice visited the United
States. Upon the first occasion a con-
fdence man named McDermott buncoed
young Peel out of a large sum Of money
and during the second visit of the
young man to America he renewed an
acquaintance formed with Miss Kittie
Sanford of Bridgeport, Conn, grand
daughter of Henry Sanford, president
of the Adams Express company. They
had arranged to be married, but when
Mr.. Sanford heard of it he broke off
the match, denouncing young Peel in
very strong terms.
Sir Robert Peel is reported to have
an income of over $115,000 per annum.
1t is understood that the quarrel was
the outcome of an argument over the
justification of the imprisonment of
Captain Dreyfus of the French army
who is serving out a sentence of penal
Imprisonment for selling important mil
itary secrets to a foreign government.
The duke, who considered himself in
suited by certain letters from Sir Rob-
ert Peel, came especially from Geneva
and sent his seconds, including the
famous French amateur sWordsman
NJ. Thome Guex, to call upon Peel. NJ.
ThoIne GueX recently had a so-called
duel with swords with an Italian anna
teur, SignOr Casella, which arose out
of a dispute as to the starched shirt
which the Count of Turin wore during
his recent duel with Prince Henri of
Orleans.
The representatives of Sir Robert
Peel met the dukes seconds this even
ing at the Cercle Artisque ct Literacy
q we'll known club in the Rue Volney
and explained that Sir Robert had
since learned that remarks he had at
tributed to the duke had never been
used, and that he, therefore, regretted
his letters, which were based upon mis-
statements, and rendered a full apol-
ogy. The dukes seconds thereupoa de-
clared the matter ended.

SPAIN NOT SEEKING TROUBLE
MILD AND INOFFENsIVE REPLY
TO WooDFoRD's NOTE.
Lntimates That War Would Have
Been Ended But For Aid Given by
Filibusters.

Washington, Nov. 1O.-It is stated on
good authority that Premier Sagasta's
reply to Minister Woodford's note, the
full text of which was read at yester-
days cabinet meeting, is eminently
satisfactory to this government. In it
the Spanish ministry pledges itself to
correct the abuses of power in Cuba,
which was the subject of so much COM
plaint during the Weyler administra-
ton, and gives assurance of its friend
Iy feeling toward the American people.
1t accepts our good offices in its efforts
to restore peace in Cuba, and in a per-
fectly respectful and friendly spirit
asks this government so far as pOssi-
bic, to restrain the insurgent sympa-
thizers in the United States from Civ
ing material aid 10 the enemies of
Spain in Cuba. The reply intimates
that but for the assistance that has
been given by filibusters from the
United States, peace would have been
restored long ago.
The reply, it is stated, does not con-
tain a sentence that could give Of
Tense or be construed into an express
sion of an unfriendly feeling against
the government of the United States.
On the contrary, the note is stated to
be distinctly conciltatory in tone, al
though insisting upon the right and
duty of Spain to put down an armed
instruction within its own territory.
1t is evident that the reply had a ia
vorable impression upon President Nc
Kinley and the members of the cabinet,
and it is not unlikely that one of the
features of his fortho % ing message to
congress will be discussion of the Gu
ban situation, from which it will appear
that there is nothing in the situation
to justify present interference on the
part Of the United States.

ICE BOUND WHALERS.
Government Will Dispatch the Bear
to the Rescue,

Washington, Nov. 10.-Secretary
Long and Captain Shoemaker had an
other conference with the president to-
day concerning the ice-bound whaler
fleet in Bening sea. Further informa-
tion from San Francisco had been re
ceived which made it expedient to
send the whaling ship Thrasher to the
rescue, and it has now been deter
mined to send the Bear. Revenue
marine officers have reported that the
Thrasher is not as serviceable as de-
sired, and besides would cost $500 a
day and might be gone 200 days or
more, mourning an expense which the
department would not be willing to as
sumo. The Bear will be Immediately
provisioned and sent to the nearest
point that can be reached, and pro-
visions will be transported over the ice
by reindeer or dogs, as seems most
feasible.

TROUBLE FOR WILLIAM.

Berlin, Nov. 1O.-The result of the
municipal elections at Westpreignitz
province of Brandenburg, where Herr
Schulz, the radical candidate, has been
elected by vote of 7,4S1 against $3.50
cast for Herr Saldern, the conservative
candidate, is highly significant of what
is likely to happen at the general

Two ballots were taken. On the first
Herr Saldern received 5,043 votes; Herr
Schulz 3.14S, while the socialists and
anti-semite candidates received respec-
lively 2,015 and 1,4O9 votes. On the
second ballot the socialists seem to
have gone over in a body to the radi-
