THE LONDON MARKET.

London, April 17.-Uncertainty is the main feature in the money market, the ease or stringency of the near future depending upon peace or war between Spain and the United States. The Bank of England is doing everything to attract gold.
 The stock market is comparatively quiet owing to the timidity felt in view of the political uncertainty. Practi- cally the whole list, however, shows a decrease, first-class securities suffering with the others. Consols are one-half lower, and English railway securities show a decline of one to one and half. Spanish fours have been the center of interest from which all departments took their share.
 American railroads were very mer- curial. All closed lower, though little selling was recorded on this side.

SLEEPY MANS SPEECH.
Had Electrifying Effect on Jury and
 Brought Verdict.

 When newspapers writers in Wash ington are "shy" of good stories they have only to look into the career of George Vest, senator from the great state of Missouri. There the fund of good material is apparently inexhausti- ble. Walter Wellman has been taking a turn at Vest and finds a new story that is worth repeating.
 The scene is located in Missouri, of course, and the preliminaries tell how Vest was employed by a man whose dog had been shot by neighbor. Other eminent counsel attended to all the preliminaries of the fight, while Vest was there, his head sunk down between his shoulders and apparently asleep. Finally his associate nudged him and told him that he must make the con- cluding speech. He demurred, but sec ing he must do something to earn the fee which had been paid him, rose, and after gazing earnestly at the jury for some minutes, began a speech, of which this is the stenographic copy. "Gentlemen of the Jury: The best friend a man has in this world may

turn against him become his enemy. His son or daughter that he has rear ed with loving care may prove ungrate- ful, Those who are nearest and dearest to us, those whom we trust with our happiness and our good name, may be- come traitors to their faith. The money that a man has he may lose. It flies away from him, perhaps when he needs 1t most. A mans reputation may be sacrificed in moment of ill-consid- cred action. The people who are prone to fall on their knees to do us honor when success is with us may be the first to throw the stone of malice when failure settles it's cloud upon our heads. The one absolutely unselfish friend that a man can have in this selfish world, the one that never de- serts him, the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous, is his dog.
 "Gentlemen of the jury" the senator continued, "a mans dog stands by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickness. He will sleep on the cold ground, where the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he may be near his masters side. 1OCNt to offer, he will lick the wounds and sores that come in encounter with the roughness of the world. He guards the sleep of his pauper master as if he were prince. When all other friends desert he remains. When riches take wings and reputation falls to pieces he is as constant in his love as the sun in it's journey through the heavens. If fortune drives the master forth an out cast in the world, friendless and home less, the faithful dog asks no higher privilege than that of accompanying him to guard against danger, to fight against his enemies, and when the last scene of all comes, and death takes the master in its embrace and his body is laid away in the cold ground, no mat ter if all other friends pursue their way there by his graveside will the no- ble dog be found, his head between his paws, his eyes sad but open in alert watchfulness faithful and true even in death"
 What followed, the veracious We'll man describes in this way:
 Then Vest sat down. This remark able speech he had delivered in a low voice, without gesture. No reference had he made to the merits of the case in hand. Not a word had he uttered about evidence. When he finished judge and jury were seen to have tears in their eyes. The jury filed out and ir a minute or two returned to the court room. The plaintiff had asked for s2OC damages. The verdict gave him $50( and several of the jury wanted to hang the defendant"

LIFE AND TIMES OF wYcL1FFE
Lecture by Rev. F. A. M. Brown, D. D.,
 Last Night

Lecture by Rev. F. A. M. Brown, D. D.,
 Last Night.
 Rev. Dr. Brown of the First Presby- terian church delivered his third lec- ture of the course, Performers and Their Times," at the church last even- ing. The course is given under the auspices of the Young Peoples society of Westchester Presbytery. The sub 5ect of the lecture was 'The Life and Times of John Wycliffe'' The sub stance of the lecture was as follows:
 John Wycliffe entered Baliol college, Oxford, at fifteen years of age. He soon became theological instructor. These instructors were not well versed in the Bible, but accepted the views of their predecessors. Wycliffe studied the Bible itself and became most influ- ential.
 He became a friend and adviser of Edward III, and assisted him in the fight against the pope, in which the king was successful.
 Influenced by Courtney, the pope calls Wycliffe to trial, in which he was acquitted. He then takes his stand as a reformer and declares against the AA'eo that it was unknown in the eighth cen- tury This was most advanced stand. He is again tried, this time for heresy, and is saved only by the intervention of the king. When shortly after he was struck by paralysis the Monks try to get him to recant he utterly refused and lived to suppress their order.
 Finally he was stopped from lectur- ing at Oxford by royal command. Then he retired to Lutterworth, where after another trial he suffered another stroke of paralysis, from which he died.
 Thus we leave this man, the most marked man in the pages of history. But his teachings were forgotten. Af- ter 150 years Luther reiterates the say ings of Wycliffe, but with less learning and philosophy. England then accepts them and becomes reformed nation. Had there not been that time of dark ness in England the Reformation would have started with Wycliffe instead of Luther"

work will be next Saturday, and a sig
nificant fact and one showing that the
manufacturers intend 10 insist on the
10 per cent reduction is that all the
cloth was removed from the rolls i'll
several of the mills, that the operati tives
may be paid on the old schedule. Mayor
Ashley tonight stated that the joint
arbitration committee of the board OF
trade and city council had received no
reply TO their resolution sent to manu-
facturcrs requesting them to postpone
the reduction of wages for another
week, and no intimation has come from
the manufacturers that they have or
will take any cognizance of the resolu-
tions
The manufacturers are sure to have
a strike on their hands whether they

say that any action had been taken
