great foreign money centers.
 The course of Our own money mark cts for the last few weeks has made it perfectly evident that, without some additional resources, the extraordinary demand for funds would exhaust the banking reserves to an extent that would cause great tension in the money market and possible disaster. to over extended speculation. It is now denOn- strated that the outward course of our commodities has established sufficient volume of credits abroad so that the domestic money markets have a resort for relief in case of urgent necessity.
 The effect upon speculative sentiment was pronounced. The gold seems to have been secured upon its arrival from South Africa in London after rather active competition, and the present sup ply available for import seems to be limited. The outgO of currency from New York in other directions also con- tinues very large. Time money rates continue to advance in New York and borrowers on call are paying off their obligations and taking out time loans.
 The volume of dealings to-day eX- banded somewhat but was attributed very largely to professional sources. Commission houses complained of the lifeless outside demand in stocks. The weather bureaus weekly crop bulletin confirmed the prevailing confidence over the grain crop, especially the corn crop, and the corn carriers were rela- lively stronger than the rest of the list. The special movement ill Sloss Shelf field steel was due to the declaration of a stock dividend. Prices touched the highest in the final hour when the market broadened considerably and Union Pacific, St. Paul, Pennsylvania, Erie and the United States Steel stocks were in large demand. The closing was steady at about the best of the day.
 Bonds were firm. Total sales par value, $2,S40,00O,

 MT. MuhlfeIder was fifty-two years of age. He was one of the best known of the latter day merchants in New Ha- ven, and stood at the head of one, of the largest millinery concerns in New England, outside of Boston. He had pleasing personality, and had made many friends during his business career in New Haven. The immediate cause of his death was an effection of the throat: -.'
 About five years ago MT. Muhlfelder. who was a native of New York came her from Ballston Spa, N. r., and with his brother, Jonas, the surviving mem- Der of the present firm, purchased the well known millinery business of k. Moses Co.,, on Chapel street: This business they have since greatly extend ed and in1aroved until the establish ment Is now one of the largest and most attractive in Connecticut.
 MT. MuhIfelder is survived by his wife, a daughter, Mrs. William Schoen- berger of this city, and a son, Meynster Muhlfelder who is connected with the Muhlfelder store. He is also survived by his brother, Jonas, until lately in business in Pfttsfeld, Mass, and three other brothers, all of whom are more or less prominent in the trade. in New York state and elsewhere, and two sis ters.
 Last year Mir Muhlfelder purchased the Bigalow property at Orange and Cottage streets for his private resi- dence, and he had just finished furnish ing it in sumptuous manner, when he was taken i'll. The first symptoms of the disease were those of appendicitis, and his friends were desirous of hay ing him submit to an operation, but this he refused to do. Later. the throat trouble appeared.
 The funeral will be held tomorrow afternoon at ? o'clock. It will be pri- yate. Intern1ent will be in Mishkan Israel cemetery in Westville,
 Deceased was a man of rare qualities of mind and heart. No one could be- come acquainted with him without forming a sincere friendship for him. He was quiet and unassuming, 1nd did many acts of Kindness and benevolence which were known only to the recip- tents. He was ever ,considerate of oth- CTS and in many ways was helper and benefactor in the community. He will be greatly missed by a large circle of friends, who feel deep personal loss in his den1fse. He will be sincerely mourned by the employees of the Muhl- fielder stores, where he was highly prized and esteemed for his kindly, friendly and considerate treatment. This city loses a man of sterling worth and integrity.

 TESTERDAY'S STOCK MARKET.

Decisive Advance Follows Engagement
 of Gold for Import.
 New York, Sept. 12.-The response of stocks to the. engagement of gold for import was testimony to- the import ance attached to the question of relief from possible stringency of money. The advance was decisive and compre- hensive, following promptly upon the announcement of the engagement. It was the common belief that to-day's engagement of $1.200,000 was prelimin- ary to an extended inward movement of gold. It was as symptom of condi- tions which made this possible that the development was effect rather than from the amount involved. The fear was gaining ground in stock market circles that insuperable obstacles would be opposed to the relinquishment of gold held as banking reserves in the

TROUBLES GROWING
FOR MRS. CHADWICK.
She May Also Be Charged With
Smuggling Rich Laces and
worries.

CLEVELAND, o., Jan. 24.-United
States Customs Collector Leach has
found valuable worries and laces be-
longing TO Mrs. Cassie L. Chadwick In
the Chadwick home, on Euclid ave.
nue.. Mr. Leach is going to learn
whether duty has been paid upon the
articles, all OF which have been i'm.
ported. The goods were taken TO the
Office of Receiver Nathan I.oeser and
examined by an expert. They are
said 10 be worth al least $4,000, most
OF that sum being spent in number
OF line and expensive articles of lace,
such MS curtains, collarctteS. handkcr.
chiefs, etc. Some of the handker.
chiefs are valued at 500 each. If 1t
is shown that the duty has not been
paid upon the goods they will be sold
TO recover duty, and the proceeds will
become part of the fund which Mr..
Loeser is accumulating for the bone.
fit of the Chadwick creditors.
An official of the Treasury Depart

legation of the case. If 1t is shown
that Mrs. Chadwick has brought the
laces and worries into the United
States without paying duty on them,
the federal government will prefer a
charge of smuggling against her and
the, goods mentioned will be held as
evidence against her.
Another interesting phase of the
Chadwick development is that Receiv
er Nathan Loeser will not permit Mrs.
chadwick to go to her Euclid avenue
home until her right to do so has been
passed upon by Federal Judge Wing.
This question will not come up, how.

go home. she will not be permitted to
have possession of any OF her house

THE LESSON

Points of silimarty Between Russian
Crisis and the Terrible Days of II
The French Revolution.

The similarity between the condi-
tons In Russia today and those in

since the outbreak at 81. Petersburg
became inevitable. The comparison
Is striking in some of its features.
faine, in his ancient Regime, has
this 10 say, of the condition of the
French people in17S9, Just before the
Revolution:
Z Three classes of people, the cler.
gy, the mobiles and the king, occupied
the most prominent position in the
State. The privileged classes mum.
bered about 100000. Comprising the
nobility 10000 and of the clergy
100000. This made from 25,OOO to
10000 noble families. $4,000 monks
in 700 monasteries and $1,000 nuns
In 500 converts, and 10000 curates
and Wears In as many churches and
chapels. Should more distinct i'm.
preston be desired, imagine on each
square league OF territory, AND to each
Thousand of inhabitants, one noble
family in its weathercock mansion, in
each village curatc and his church,
ana every six or seven leagues, con-
ventual body of men or of women. A

The Revolution had It's actual be.
ginning in 1857, when the parliament
OF Paris was banished for its refusal
TO register edic,s relating to the
stamp duty and the land tax. This
was but an Ou;growth of the press.
ing need for money under which the
court of Louis WI. rested. The lead.
err of the ministry, Brienne, facing
the systematic opposition Of the par.
lament, secured It's exile. and that of
the entire magistracy of France. He
tried every means Of compelling the
action the financial crisis demanded
and failed, dying at last from the Of.
fects of his exertions.
The re-establishment of the states.
general became then the last resource
Of the throne. This body was organ.
lied, after a long struggle over the
successful demand of the third estate
for double representation. 1t was con.
yened on May 5. 1889, for the first
time since 1Gl4. For three weeks
nothing was accomplished; the mobiles
held 'aloof from the commoncrs and
the: clergy hesitated to act in concert
with them. On June II the third es-
tate voted itself the National Assem-.
bly, and pushed its pretentlons to the
highest point. It declared that salli
existing taxes, not having been con,
s sent TO by the ople. were Illegal,
