Police Think the Henry Brothers WereIn Collusion.
WILLIAM REMAINS IN JAIL.
He Prefers to Stay There, He Says, Until. the Brooklyn Detectives Are Satis-
fied- That He Did Not SlayHis Old Miser Father.
BROOKLYN, June 21.—One week hasnow elapsed since the body OS. the agedmiser, Charles "W. Henry, was found withthe head battered almost beyond recogni-tion in the basement of his home, 95 SouthPortland avenue, and the murder is stillas great a mystery as ever. William Hen-ry, the so called ' 'bad'' son of the murder-ed man, is under arrest, and if statements'count for anything a determined attemptwill be made to convict him.
He was arraigned before Justice Hag-gerty in the Myrtle Avenue police court,but the examination was adjourned tintilJuly 13 by consent of counsel. LawyerBackus, for the prisoner, seized the occa-sion to make a somewhat dramatic speech.
William Prefers to Eemain In Jail.
" I could, if I liked," he said, "move tohave this man discharged, its he is notheld under a legal commitment. -He issimply held on the affidavit; of a detectivenamed Delahanty, who charges him withbeing a parricide. There is not a particleof evidence Siat he killed his father. AtShe prisoner's own request, however, I askthis adjournment. He is willing—in fact,he is arudems—to remain in jail until thepolice axe fully satisfied tliat b.e is not theman who committed the murder. Onething, however, I would 10cc_ to insistupon., That is, he shall not be taken tothe jail along with these disreputablebxuns wno axe here as prisoners. Any one-of theni could sit beside him, and for §10would be willing to swear afterward be-fore the police that "William Henry admit-ted to them that he was a murderer."
'Sh.e Conspiracy Theory.Another theory has been sprung upon
the public, rivaling all others in its sen-sationalism. It is practically that therewas a conspiracy to murder the old man,and that perhaps both sons were party toit. It is urged that the miser was at warwith the whole family, and had threaten-ed to cut every one of them off without adollar, including "Walter. The theory isthat the miser never made a will, but that,in order to prevent him doing so, it was de-cided to kill him.
So far as can be known, however, thereare absolutely no facts upon which to basesuch a theory, which, like all the others,is niero conjecture. It is expected thatthe widow of the murdered man may beable to throw some light on it as soon asshe grows stifaciently strong to talk. Therenever has been a frank story told of thequarrel between the miser and his wifeand son William on the Saturday beforethe murder, when he put both out of thehouse. "William has refused to talk of it,and his mother has so far been unable todo so.
Walter Watched hy the Police.Walter, it is said, is under police surveil-
lance, but he does not seem to mind it inthe least. The action of 1ihe brothers inbecoming so quickly reconciled, after onehad practically acciised the other of the fa-ther's murder, is commented on in variousways. It was something like a shock tothe police when they heard that both Wal-ter and William had united in the applica-tion to the surrogate that "Walter be ap-pointed" administrator of his father's es-tabe. This means simply that the gold forwhich the old man starved himself duringlife win now be divided among the family.
Regarding the murder, Police CaptainMcKelvcy says he has proof that Williamdid commit the crime, but he does nottake the same view as the district attorneyas to whether or not any money had beenbaten from the house by the murderer.Although a quantity of money—nearly§80,000 in gold, notes and. securities—wasfound in the old man's "box, he thinks itpossible that other money might have beentaken from it.
He points out that, although "Williamsays he slept in Prospect park three dayslast week, he is known to have spent $8for a dinner on one day and opened winein a saloon the very day before he surren-dered to the police.
The Police Say William Is Bright.Dr. Shepard's theory that the clothing
of the murdcror must have been drenchedwith his victim's blood has engaged f eattention of the police. It was generaUyconsidered proof enough that "William didnot commit the crime, as he was knownto have had only the one suit of clothes.Superintendent McKelvey, however, whenquestioned on that point, said it had notbeen proved that "William had only onesuit. He docs not think it at all improb-able that ho had two suits, and that be-fore surrendering he carefully destroyedthe one he wore while committing themurder.
"William is not the simple minded fcl~low people give him credit for," the super-intendent said. ' ' On the contrary, he isremarkably bright. Neither is it true thathe was subjected to any indignity at thehands of the police, or that we tried totorture him into a confession."
A Plot Against tlitt. Sultan."VAK3"A, Bulgaria, June 21.—A report

to the National Convention.,! June SI.—The third and
closing day's session of the RepublicanNational league' s annual convention foundtho delegates harmonious as wen as wea-ry. The silver agitation had been at whiteheat all the week, but the unanimous ac-tion of the committee on resolutiora to re-port no platf ojim resolutions had ended thecontest in a surprising draw. It wasknown to all that both sides, so far asmembers of tike committee were concern-ed, had agreed! to support the Patton sub-stitutes for all] resolutions, or the proposed"address to the people." The substituteresolution introduced by ex-Senator Pat-ton of Michigan refers aU "resolutions inrelation to public questions to the Kepub-lican national convention of 1S96, withentire confidence that its action will re-dound to the pvosperity of our people audthe continued glory and advancement ofthe country."

Miss Enowltonhas attend-ed aU the sessions of the convention, al-ways bearing the colors at the head of theArkansas doljjgation.
The Pennsylvania delegation held ameeting and decided to stand by the plat-form as reported by tho committee on res-olutions. This action had its effect on theNew Yorkers >aucl othors who were inclin-ed to fight bhe Patton substitute.
The Patton resolution was formaUyadopted by tlii}, convention. This endedall the silver agitation, and tho agreementof the contending factions to have no finan-cial fight on the floor of the conventionwas carried through. The result was greet-ed with applause. M. J. Dowling waselected secretary. In the even ing the con-vention gave a. reception to Governor Mc-Kinley.

He declaredthis check haid been sent by Dixou in pay-ment of debt, and it was no fault of his itthere was no money in the bank to meet it.

KIEL, June SI.—The boiler of one of thosteam launches of the United States cruisesColumbia exploded. The cylinder headwas blown off and carried overboard withit the smokestack and other portions of tholaunch. Jour persons were injiu'ed by theexplosion and were taken to the naval hos-pital.
At Holtenau Bmperor "William -visitedthe Russian armored cruiser Rurik at 9:30a. m., and subsequently laid the last stoneof the Baltic and North Sea canal in thepresence of many thousands of spectators.
Holtenau, which gives its name to thenew lotsk, is picturesquely situated four orfive miles from Kiel and nearly a niile fromthe mouth o the canal, where the founda-tion stone was laid.
The Emperor Taps the Stone.The kaiser, wearing the uniform of tho
Gardes du Corps, accompanied by thekaiserin in a crushed strawberry gown,arrived at the keystone at 10:55. The-stone was flanked by a battalion of ma-rines. As his majesty gave the stone thefirst stroke a detachment of artiUery sta-tioned on the Mil behind the platformsfired a royal salute, which was followed bysalutes fired by tlie warships in the bay.ChanceUor Hohcnlohe's document, givinga history of the canal, with a set of coinsof the reign of Emperor Frederick III,was placed in the sfcono, which was thenclosed. After the emperor had tapped thestone •with a mallet, the empress steppedforward and performed the same act, fol-lowed by the crown prince of Prussia, theprince regent of Bavaria, the king oiSaxony, the Grand Duke of Baden, tliaGrand Duke OJC Ucsse and a number of oth-ers. At the conclusion of the ceremoniesat the keystone the emperor went on boardthe Hohenzollern, where he tookluncheon.Salutes to his majesty were fired by sev-eral of the warships in the bay.One Hundred ajid Sixteen Warships In Line.
Tho review of the warships took-place—the greatest naval demonstration thaworld has ever seen—116 warships, SO oithem line of battle ships, representing anthe great nations of the earth. It had beenarranged iu the coiu'se of preparations fenthe celebration that the assembled war-ships should steanx past the Hohenzonernin review, but for some unexplained rea-son it was decided later that the emperor'yacht should merely steam through thblines of the Gorman and foreign fleets ly-ing at anchor. This was accordingly done,aU of the ships saluting the HohenzoUeriias she passed. All of the ships were nter,aUy covered with flags, and in the brightsunshine made a magnificent sx>ectacle.Miss Herbert, daughter of tho UnitedStates secretary of the navy, with a partjof friends, was on board the Americancruiser New 'York. .Nearly every type oimodern warship was represented, and afair idea of the effectiveness of the variousnational forces was .afforded by the severalsquadrons sent to the gathering of thi3mighty fleet.
The Greatest Fleet In History.Never before was such a powerful fleet
assembled in one place as that in Kiel bay.Germany was represented by eight battle-ships, six coast defense ships, three cruis-ers, five dispatch vessels, eight trainingships, tho royal yacht, four torpedo divi-sion boats and 34 torpedo boats, besidesnumerous^mall craft. The United Stateswas represented by the cruisers New York,Columbia, San ITrancisco and Marblehcad.England sent four battleships, three cruis-ers, two torpedo vessels, tho royal yachtand. the admiralty yacht.

What ITrench Papers Say.PAEIS, June SI.—The newspapers gen
oraUy regard Emperor •William's speech atHamburg as inspired by a desire to bt,agreeablo rather than expressive of his rea'sentiments. Tlio Estafetto declares that i'is necessary for the realization of thtwishes expressed by the emperor thatPrance and Germany should be reconciled—i. e., that the question of Alsace-Lor-raine be settled. The Soloil remarks thatin spite of the pacific tone of the emperor'sutterances morose persons remark thatpeaceful festivities have sometimes pre-ceded torriblo wars. TheRappel, referringto the same subject, says that Europe doesnot beUove that peace is the solo object oitho building of the Baltic and North Soacanal. According to La Paix, EmperoiWilliam, desires peace, but "the republicalone can give universal peace to the broth-erhood of nations." The Siecle submitsthat the peaceful language of the emperoiis inconsistent with the dispatch of awreatlvto London upon the anniversary o.the battle of "Waterloo. According to TheRadical, the simplest method of assuringpeace is for Germany to surrender whatshe owes to a war—apparently referring toAlsace-Lorraine. The Petite RepubHqu6expresses the opinion that to credit theutterances' of Emperor "William at Hamburg vessels of commerce should havebeen convoked at Kiel and not warships.

THE' DUKE TO STEP D0WI.Cambridge Will Kesijin as Commander In
Chief of the British Army.
LOKDCGT, June 31.—The secretary ofstate for war, Mr. Cantibell-Banuerman,announced in tho house of commons thatthe Duke «f Cambridge, the commander inchief of the British forces, win resign com-mand of the army on Oct. 1.
The announcement that the duke hasfinally decided to retire from the post ofcommander in chief of tlie British armyWiU be welcomenews to very manyBritons. CertainEnglish newspa-pers and some sec-tions of the polit-ical parties ofGreat B.r i ta inhavo been strong-ly urging his re-tirement for yearspast. Dispatchesto the press onMay 4 last fore-shadowed the an-nouncement madein the house of DUKE OF CAMBRIDGE,commons. It was then stated that LordRoberts of Kandahar, would succeed Lord"Wolseley at Dublin as commander of theforces in Ireland and that Lord "Wolseleywould take the newly created post of chiefof the staff at headqiiai'ters in the event ofthe retirement of title Duke of Cambridge.
On May 9 Dr. Tanner, auti-ParneUitemember for the middle division of Cork,caused a commotion in the house of com-mons by asking if the report was true thatthe Duke of Cambridge was retiring inorder to make way for a better man. Thiscaused loud cries of '' Order!'' but Dr. Tan-ner continued, saying, "Has the time atlast come when a member of the royalfamily who has been drawing the people'smoney too long is going to retire?" Aconsiderable uproar followed, and thehouse adjoxu-nedwith Mr. Tanner gesticu-lating wildly and trying to address tliespeaker.
The Duke of Cambridge is the cousin ofQueen "Victoria and was 1301-11 March 26,1819. Ho became a colonel \-\ the armyin 1837 and was made commander in chietin 1887. He commanded the first divisionof tho eastern army throughout the cam-paign of 1854 and took part in the battlesof the Alma, BalaTilava and Inkernian,where his horse was shot under him. Healso participated in the siege of Sevasto-pol. He is colonel in chief of the Seven-teenth lancers, of the Royal artillery, ofthe Royal engineers, of the Grenadierguards and of the Rifle corps. In additionhe is honorary colonel of the Third volun-teer battaUon of the King's Royal Riflecorps and many others. He is pres-ident of numerous coneges, is a personalaid de camp of bhe queen and grand mas-ter of the Order of St. Michael and St.George. It is difficult to estimate the ex-act amount of money which the Duke ofCambridge received, but it begins with anannuity of §60,000.
Campbell-Bannerman added that futurecommanders in chief would be subject tothe rules affecting other staff appoint-ments, and the office would be tenable fortho usual terms of years, capable of exten-sion. The commander in chief would bothe principal military adviser of the secre-tary of state for war, and with the adju-tant general, the quartermaster general,the director of artUlery and the inspectorof forts, each being personaUy responsibleto the secretary of state for war, wouldform a deliberative councU to advise thesecretary.

Eroin aU parts of the"United States the best advices obtainableten of a rising tide of trade and industry,Trtiich threatens here and there to mounttoo far and too fast. The volume of anbusiness is by no means equal to that of1892 as yet, though in some importantbranches larger than tn_that or any otheryear. Daily payments through clearinghouses iu June are 26.9 per cent largerthan last year. Two influences of tremen-doxzs power contribute to the rise—encour-aging crop news and confident replenish-ing of stocks which have been for twoyears depleted to the utmost.
Crop Keports Encouraging:.Excepting too heavy rains in Texas, crop
reports this week have been highly en-couraging. Future injury to cotton can-not be predicted, but as yet nothing indi-cates a yield below 7,500,000 bales, whichwould not be supposed to threaten famineif the commercial and mUl stocks were re-membered, now exceeding by 2,500,000"bales a full consumption until Sept. 1.Receipts continue small, and consumptionclose to the maximum here aud abroad,though the marketing of British goods isnot entirely encouraging. Liberal pur-chases of an products by the south do notindicate "belief that any serious naisf orbuiieimpends. So the strong trade in wheatgrowing states accords with brighter cropprospects. Reports from spring wheatstates and from the Pacific coast are socheering that, although the loss of winterwheat was large, those whose estimateshave been most accurate in recent yearsnow vary in predictions from 430,000,000to 470,000,000 bushels. Atlantic exportsfor three weeks, flour included, have beenonly 3,758,718 bushels, against 6,006,232last year, indicating no urgent demand atcurrent prices. There has been a fan of6 cents in wheat, with heavier sales thanfor three weeks past.
Tlie Rush 3?cr Iron and Steel.The rush for supplies in iron aud steel
resembles a "bear panic" iu the stockmarket. Because prices are mounting ev-erybody hurries to buy, so that they mounthigher. Bessemer iron has reached §12.65at Pittsburg, the Bar association hag ad-vanced common to §1.15, the Wire Nailassociation puts up tho price to §1.50 perkeg, the steel rail makers have raised theprice to §24, eastern and southern fur-naces have both raised prices again 50cents per ton, aud structural beams are§1.35 and angles §1.25. It is undeniablethat works in operation are crowded withorders, aud others which have been idlefor years are preparing to resume. Thegeneral beUef that a combination of cokeproducers would raise tho price to §1.50after July 1 is apparently removed by waramong the producers and afaUtoSl.25in contracts for the last half of 1895.
Sales of wool at the chief markets,3,113,700 pounds domestic and 3,844,400foreign, are larger than in any previousyear for the same week, and in threeweeks of June have been 19,516,065pounds, of which 10,631,700 were foreignagainst 16,988,600 in 1892, of which 7,764, -800 were foreign. Holding of stocks bygrowers for higher prices has caused anadvance in the average of 104 qualities ofdomestic wool quoted by Coates Bros,from 13.09 cents June 1 to 13.27 cents,but Australian is bought on a large scaleat 36 to 38 cents for combing and 34 to 36cents for clothing, both scoured, and wantof domestic supplies is evidently causinghea^y jrarchases of foreign wool in ad-vance of need.
Advances In Cotton Goods.
Orders for men's woolens are a little bet-ter, and the. Washington mills liave openedtheir Clay worsteds at an advance of about2K per cent, though some lower gradesare reduced'" in price. Advances continuein cotton goods and are sustained by un-usual demand and scarcity at a time whenthe mills are generaUy anxious to clear oftold stocks. Shipments of boots and shoosfor the week have been the largest eveiknown in any week, 101,425 cases accord-ing to The Shoe and Leather Keporter, andfor three weeks of June have been 11 peicent larger than in any previous year.Many shops are stopping though mosthave orders to August or September.
Railroad stocks have grown slightlystronger with bettor crop news, and theearnings in June average 10.4 per comlarger than last year, but 15.8 per cent lesbthan in 1893. Shipments from Chicago intwo weeks of June were 97,504 tonsagainst 99,728 last year, aud 105,463 in1S93. With sterling exchange at the shipping point, gold exports axe not expectedunless the syndicate sees fit to makethem for purposes of its own, although themerchandise balance would call for ship-ments, and foreign trading in stocks hasbeen insignificant. Evidences of better em-ployment of money in the interior multi-ply, but funds continue to gravitate hith-er, and one large loan for an Olneyvfflfcmill, with good New Tork indorsement,was placed for 45 days at 1% per cent perannum, although commercial loans ar6more freely offered and taken, failuresfor the week have been 228 in the UnitedStates against 214 last year and 31 in Canada against 25 last year.

•Europe's Uemand 3?or Onx Securities X>ueto tlie Government's JTinancial Attitude.NEW yoBK, June 21.—WaU street took
the liveliest interest in the appearance ofMr. J. Pierpont Morgan at Ms office againaffer an .absence in Europe of severalmonths. Mr. Morgan, with Mr. AugustBebnont, had a few weeks before he sailedmade the now famous contract with Sec-retary Carlisle for the sale to the govern-ment of 3,5.00,000 ounces of gold. At leastDne-half of the §65,000,000 bonds issued topay for this gold was placed in Europethroiigh banking houses allied With theNew York houses of J. J?. Morgan & Co.and August Belnio'nt.& Co., but even aft-er this London banking houses were largesellers of securities, which added to theburden of controlling the foreign ex-changes indirectly assumed by the syndi-cate.
It was not until after Mr. Morgan hadarrived in London that a distinct changewas noted in the foreign sentiment towardAmerican securities. The heavy foreignselling of securities ceased, foreign housesbecame eager buyers on the Stock Ex-change, and for a time it seemed as if theforeign appetite for American securitieswas insatiable.
Mr. Morgan says:"The feeling abroad is very strongly in
favor of American securities. They recog-nize the fact that tho government ispledged to maintain the gold standardand are consequently disposed to buyAmerican securities, especially those of avery choice character, for which the mar-ket is almost unlimited. The issues'whichhave recently been sold are selling at largepremiums,and other negotiations are pend-ing."
Mr. Morgan has not had time to lookinto the situation here, but is satisfied thata reorganization of the Northern Pacificand the Erie will be undertaken withoutmaterial delay.
A NEW OUTPUT POE SILVES.
JL Vast Quantity WU1 Go Abroad if Auier-i-CSLns Secure tlie Ciiinese X.oaxu
WASHIKGTOH, June 31.—Officials of theChinese legation say that the Americancapitalists Who are negotiating Si Chinato secure the loan of 800,000,000 taelswhich China is about to pay to Japan standquite as good a chance of securing the loanas any other money representatives. Somemisapprehension has been created by a ca-bled statement that China had closed herloan in Paris. It is explained by the offi-cials here that this loan is a subordinateone of 16,000,000 taels to cover the surren-der of the Liau-Tong peninsula. Themain loan of 200,000,000 taels is still opento tjhe bids of American investors.
There is much speculation as to the re-sult of the loan if it is secured by theAmerican parties. It is said that the firstresult would be the shipment of an unprec-edented anioxint of silver. But as China'sbonds are payable in gold tho ultimate re-sult would be to bring back gold for thesilver paid to Japan. It is xsointed out alsothat the interest on the entire loan willnot exceed §5,000,000 annuaUy, so that theChinese customs receipts of §23,000,000wiU readily meet tho interest charges andprovide a sinking fund for the redemptionof the bonds, which wiU probably run f or20 years.
