All the OmciaIs Were Abroad and he
Was the Only One
to DO II.

Senator Depew does not tell how. the fol-
lowing came to be reported TO him, but II Is
such good story that he uses it continually
in dismissing dignifed bores or influential
beggars from his office. The senator was on
his summer vacation when pompous little
man called to see him and encountered the
colored porter who guards the outer gates
of the Depew sanctum.
II want to see Chauncey Depew," said
the little man.
"You CANT, sab. He's gone to Europe,
sah."
"Well, then, I'll see his secretary"
"Sorry, sab, but Mistah Duval, he's done
gone to Europe"
"Then I'll see Cornelius Vanderbilt"
Hes in Newport, sah."
"Well, is w. X. Vanderbilt in!"
No, sab. He's done gone to Newport,
"That so!" Then I'll see the vice presi-
dent of the road"
Hes in Albany, sah."
'How about the second vice presidentT
Hes down to Long Branch, sah."
'Is the superintendent in :?
Hes out inspectionin' de road, sal"
How about General Passenger Agent
Daniels?
"He went away to Cape May dis mawn-
in"
"Who in thunder is running this road,
anyway" shouted the little man, getting
very red in the face.
"Well, IN tell you, boss" replied the
ebon attendant, "dis yere road jes' runs hit
sef, sab, an dere hahn nobody needed round
to look after things but me."-Saturday

A sToRM-TossED MARKET.
Tho New York Cotton Exchange is the
Theater Of PanIeky Scenes.


New York. Dec. 10.-Almost unpre-
cedented excitement prevailed Monday
on the cotton exchange. Seldom, If
ever, in the history of the institution
has the volume of business been SO
great. No official record of sales was
made, but it is estimated that the
amount of cotton traded in came near
reaching the million-bale mark, the
heaviest previous total having been
something like 100000. There was q
perfect avalanche of selling orders.
The opening was easy at decline of
from to 6 points. From the closing
figures of Saturday the market, as
shown by the weakest interval, broke
80 to Ss points, ut which time con-
dition bordering on panic prevailed.
The original cause of the collapse
was the heavy selling movement
started by Wall street interests.
