legislatures of other states beside Kansas
will have had an opportunity to express
their views to theiI state delegations in
Congress; and it is expected there will
be similar action. Care has been taken
in all the protests against the seating OF
Roberts to make it clear that tho oppo-
sition is not based on the fact that he is
Mormon but that he is polygamlst.
As a Mormon he cannot and ought not
to be barred out. because his belief in
the doctrines of Mormonism is matter
Of religious faith and is therefor prive-
liged. His practice of polygamy is
question OF morals and legality. His fit
ness to sit in Congress can Therefore be
questioned by the house of which he has
been elected member. Roberts says he
will not desert his plural wives. He is
not asked to. All he has to do is resign
his claim to seat in Congress and re-
main in Utah with his three wives. If
the people there do not care to raise the
question Of morality or legality he may
live in peace and he viii not be an offense
to the people of the other states, all OF
which have laws Furnishing polygamy as
a crime. and there is also a law of the
United Suites to the same effect apply
ing to territory over which Congress has
full Jurisdiction. Roberts should remain

The House Judiciary committee has
concluded that Gen. Joe Wheeler and

aries both as soldiers and Congress. We
believe that to be first-class law. and that
il it is to be pressed, Gen. Wheeler should
be retired from the army with full pay.
Then it would be right for him to draw

New YORK. Nov. 1S.-Russell Sage

thought of the United States treasury's s
offer to buy S25. 900, 900 of bonds:
II believe Secretary Cages action has
saved the financial world from disas
trous panic.
mo one who has been in touch with
business enterprises during the past
few months can fail to have realized the
stringency Of the money market.
Ready money appeared to be- extraord,-
nariiy scarce. and those who had it heid
it or demanded the highest class securi
ties before they let go.
II know OF banks III different parts
of the country which had the hardest
kind of time in realizing money.
And yet they hell securities that ordin-
arily would have been negotiable any
where.

situation. They were making rich
harvest of it. but the government

KANSAS CITY, Nov. 1S.-Dwight L..
Moody. the evangelist, who has been
preaching here to thousands nightly in
Convention hall, is broken in heath
and Is suffering from heart
trouble. His engagement here was
cut short and he is enroute for his
home at Northfield, Mass, in the care
of DR.. Schauffter of this city and Mr..
O. NJ. Vining, teller Of the Union Ma
tional bank.
They are travelling in a special car
provided by the committee of church
men who brought MIR. Moody to Kansas
City, and are going over the Wabash,
BY way of Chicago and Buffalo.
Ii is admitted that Mr.. Moody's coz
diuou is serious, though when the evan
geliot was seen at his hotel, shortly be-
fore being taken to the railway station.
he expressed the belief that his condi.
tlon was not serious. He stated that he
was feeling very weak, and added:
81 have had trouble with my heart
Tor good MANY years, but | never felt
weak as | do now. There is nothing
alarming about my condition, l believe"
Since last Sunday night the evange-
list has been preaching Ill Convention
hall, where the audience, on several oc-
casions, have numbered close to $1,000.
Several times he has spoken with diff
Guilty and has been compelled at times
to sit up all night, as he could not
breathe while lying down. He was too
i'll to go to the hall and large audi
ence which had gathered was turned
away.
The reports as to the seriousness of
Mr.. Moody's condition were conflicting.
Several of his intimate friends stated
that while his condition was serious. it
was not critical. These friends, how
ever, reluctantly admitted that they be-
heve his career as great public speaker
was nearing the end.
DIR. Schauffier said that in his opinion
the evangelist condition was not essen
TALLY worse than for some time past,
and that he was simply exhausted from
his recent eXertiOns before the big
crowds that have gathered to hear him.
DIR. Schauff1er added, however, that MIR.
Moody must have quiet and rest.

WILL STAND BY TAYLOR
Bradley Expected to Resist Geebei. Who
Va. Moved to Throw Ont
Louisviile'- Vote.

FRANKFORT, KY, Nov. lS.-The propo-
sition at Louisville from Goebels law
yers to throw out the entire vote OF
jefferson county, which includes Lonis-
vile, WAS no. wholly unlocked for by
the Republican leaders here. 1t is now
said Senator Deboe's visit here was for
the purpose of ascertaining definitely
to what extent governor Bradley will
support Tavlor in the event that Goe-
bel is given the certificate Of election,
based on this proceeding. Senator De-
Joe and Governor Bradley are not on
speaking terms and third party acted
as a ''gobetween.
Deboe said he was satisfied Bradley
will stand by Taylor and will visor-
ously resist Goebel. Senator Lindsay
will be asked TO act Us one of the attor-
torneys Tor the auti-Go bel side, before
the state election commission.
The Republicans found a precedent,
established by the state election commits
sion last year in which the board, by a
unanimous vote, decided it was merely
Il canvasslng board and had no power to
pass oil contests.
hr this decision the vote of johnson
aud Knox couuties. at least. must be
counted - certified They nave. moi

this ruling on the jefferson county case.
If jefferson county is thrown out the
political complexion of the Legislature
will be affected, as one senator and
seven representatives will have to be
elected under Il special election, ~ be
called by the governor.

SIGNS OF Sa4,INKAGE.
Oun's Review Notes Them More Clear
In Demand For Iron and
Steel Pruducts.


New YORK, Nov. lS.-R. G. Dun q
Co. S weekly review of trade issued to-
day said i'll part:
The signs of shrinkage in the new de.
mand for iron and steel products become
more clear, and while prices of pig are
maintained without change, and billets
are quo ID lower only because premi-
ums tor earlier deliveries are no longer
paid. plates are quoted lower at the
east. with some small mills selling at
2.5 cents at Pittsburg. and sheets are
sold by some works tbs re at 81 TO ii less
Than the regular price. The strength of
bars at the west Is largely due 10 the
great demand for cars, of wnlch 1t Is
said that 900 psr day are ordered, but
at tile east prices are shade lower. A
new demand does not make up Tor the
rapid completion of ola orders LII some
lines, so that competition OF works
weakenS prices.
Textile manufacturers are doing well,
though in woolens the speculation in
material threatens to cause some em-
barrassment. Sales of wool were again
heavy, 2l.642,3ll pounds ut the three
Chief markets. making in two weeks
41,S23,Sli pounds, against II .437, 100
pounds last year, when the mills were
well empIuyed. Clearly Il large share
of the transactions has been for specu-
lation, but the mills have been buying
also. especially those recently started
after long idleness. Prices are shade
stronger for fine washed eastern fleece.
and for fine and medium delaine, SO
that the entire list averages about Is
cent higher. Worsted goods are in
demand and have been advanced i'll
price with some fiannels. Carpets also
have been active. with prices advanced
8 per cent for the season.
Wheat declined fraction, but fully
recovered, though Atlantic exports were
only 2,976,551 bushels. flour included,
against 1888, 76S for the same week last
year, aud Pacific exports 720, 1888 bush
els, against l,9SS,093 last year.

exports than last year and smaller re-
celptS.
