He Prefers to Stay There, He Says, Until . the Brooklyn Detectives Are Satis- fied- That He Did Not Slay His Old Miser Father. BROOKLYN, June 21.—One week has now elapsed since the body OS. the aged miser, Charles "W. Henry, was found with the head battered almost beyond recogni- tion in the basement of his home, 95 South Portland avenue, and the murder is still as 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 attempt will be made to convict him. He was arraigned before Justice Hag- gerty in the Myrtle Avenue police court, but the examination was adjourned tintil July 13 by consent of counsel. Lawyer Backus, 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 to have this man discharged, its he is not held under a legal commitment. -He is simply held on the affidavit; of a detective named Delahanty, who charges him with being a parricide. There is not a particle of evidence Siat he killed his father. At She prisoner's own request, however, I ask this adjournment. He is willing—in fact, he is arudems—to remain in jail until the police axe fully satisfied tliat b.e is not the man who committed the murder. One thing, however, I would 10cc_ to insist upon., That is,he shall not be taken to the jail along with these disreputable bxuns wno axe here as prisoners. Any one- of theni could sit beside him, and for §10 would 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 there was a conspiracy to murder the old man, and that perhaps both sons were party to it. It is urged that the miser was at war with the whole family, and had threaten- ed to cut every one of them off without a dollar, including "Walter. The theory is that 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, there are absolutely no facts upon which to base such a theory, which, like all the others, is niero conjecture. It is expected that the widow of the murdered man may be able to throw some light on it as soon as she grows stifaciently strong to talk. There never has been a frank story told of the quarrel between the miser and his wife and son William on the Saturday before the murder, when he put both out of the house. "William has refused to talk of it, and his mother has so far been unable to do so. Walter Watched hy the Police. Walter, it is said, is under police surveil- lance, but he does not seem to mind it in the least. The action of 1ihe brothers in becoming so quickly reconciled, after one had practically acciised the other of the fa- ther's murder, is commented on in various ways. It was something like a shock to the 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 for which the old man starved himself during life win now be divided among the family. Regarding the murder, Police Captain McKelvcy says he has proof that William did commit the crime, but he does not take the same view as the district attorney as towhether or not any money hadbeen baten from the house by the murderer. Although a quantity of money—nearly §80,000 in gold, notes and. securities—was found in the old m a n ' s "box, he thinks it possible that other money might have been taken from it. He points out that, although "William says he slept in Prospect park three days last week, he is known to have spent $8 for a dinner on one day and opened wine in 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 drenched with his victim's blood has engaged f e attention of the police. It was generaUy considered proof enough that "William did not commit the crime, as he was known to have had only the one suit of clothes. Superintendent McKelvey, however, when questioned on that point, said it had not been proved that "William had only one suit. He docs not think it at all improb- able that ho had two suits, and that be- fore surrendering he carefully destroyed the one he wore while committing the murder. "William is not the simple minded fcl~ low people give him credit for," the super- intendent said. ' ' On the contrary, he is remarkably bright. Neither is it true that he was subjected to any indignity at the hands of the police, or that we tried to torture him into a confession." A Plot Against tlitt. Sultan. "VAK3"A, Bulgaria, June 21.—A report has reached here from Constantinople say- ing that a state plot directed against the sultan of Turkey has been discovered in the Pacicaldi Military coUege, where 80 students were arrested. The students de- clared themselves to be opposed to the pres- ent regime, which, they maintain, is trans- forming apeaceful population into a horde of savages. President Bauks Hurt. NEW YORK, June 21.—Mark Banks, 90 years old, of Greenwich, Conn., president of the Greenwich Savings bank of this city, foil heavily while alighting from a train inthe Grand Central station.

June SI.—The third and closing day's session of the Republican National league' s annual convention found tho delegates harmonious as wen as wea- ry. The silver agitation had been at white heat all the week, but the unanimous ac- tion of the committee on resolutiora to re- port no platf ojim resolutions had ended the contest in a surprising draw. It was known to all that both sides, so far as members 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 substitute resolution introduced by ex-Senator Pat- ton of Michigan refers aU "resolutions in relation to public questions to the Kepub- lican national convention of 1S96, with entire confidence that its action will re- dound to the pvosperity of our people aud the continued glory and advancement of the country." A feature of the meeting of the Arkan- sas delegation was tho presentation of a silver souvenir of the convention to Miss jFrownio Knoiwlton, the "daughter of the delegation." Miss Enowltonhas attend- ed aU the sessions of the convention, al- ways bearing the colors at the head of the Arkansas doljjgation. The Pennsylvania delegation held a meeting and decided to stand by the plat- form as reported by tho committee on res- olutions. This action had its effect on the New Yorkers >aucl othors who were inclin- ed to fight bhe Patton substitute. The Patton resolution was formaUy adopted by tlii}, convention. This ended all the silver agitation, and tho agreement of the contending factions to have no finan- cial fight on the floor of the convention was carried through. The result was greet- ed with applause. M. J. Dowling was elected secretary. In the even ing the con- vention gave a. reception to Governor Mc- Kinley. McEinley Well Pleased. CHICAGO, Jaine 31.—Governor McKinley of CXhio arrived in Cliicago en route for Cleveland to aittend the convention of the National Bepmbnean league. He declared himself as greatly pleased with the action of tho league at Cleveland in referring the silver question to tlio national convention. The move, ha said, was a very wise one. •WHITMA1T A POEGffiE. Dulnth's Ex-Mayor Has Spent 81,000,000 In JTive Years. SAS FEAJSTCISCO, Jttne 31.—Alonzo 'Whit- man, the young man who has spent Sl,- 000,000 in five years, has been convicted of forgery. Whitman came hero last year and passed $11,000 in forged checks. In his defense he admitted he had written some of the checks he had circulated, but that it was with tho consent of the persons whose narnesi wore signed to them. ITrank Dbcon, whose name was signed to one §500 check, was his father's old partner in thu lumber business in Michigan. He declared this check haid been sent by Dixou in pay- ment of debt, andit was no fault of his it there was no money in the bank to meet it. George Mitchell, an expert, testified that he believed that the Dixon checkhad been written by Whitman. This formed the main evidence against the prisoner. The jury was out an hour, finding a verdict of guilty. "Whitman is a graduate of Yalo university. He was at one time mayor of Dututh. Took Three Thousand Volts and lives. BOOHESTEK, June 81.—Foreman ITrank A.

The Emperor Ends the Work on the Baltic Canal. UNCLE SAM'S SAILOES HUET. Tour Injured by an Explosion on Oneot the Coluinbia's SteaA Haunches—A. Grand Naval Parade JTrencii Papers Skeptical About Peace. KIEL, June SI.—The boiler of one of tho steam launches of the United States cruises Columbia exploded. The cylinder head was blown off and carried overboard with it the smokestack and other portions of tho launch. Jour persons were injiu'ed by the explosion and were taken to the naval hos- pital. At Holtenau Bmperor "William -visited the Russian armored cruiser Rurik at 9:30 a. m., and subsequently laid the last stone of the Baltic and North Sea canal in the presence of many thousands of spectators. Holtenau, which gives its name to the new lotsk, is picturesquely situated four or five miles from Kiel and nearly a niile from the 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 the kaiserin 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 the first stroke a detachment of artiUery sta- tioned on the Mil behind the platforms fired a royal salute, which was followed by salutes fired by tlie warships in the bay. ChanceUor Hohcnlohe's document, giving a history of the canal, with a set of coins of the reign of Emperor Frederick III, was placed in the sfcono, which was then closed. After the emperor had tapped the stone •with a mallet, the empress stepped forward and performed the same act, fol- lowed by the crown prince of Prussia, the prince regent of Bavaria, the king oi Saxony, the Grand Duke of Baden, tlia Grand Duke OJCUcsse and a number of oth- ers. At the conclusion of the ceremonies at the keystone the emperor went on board the Hohenzollern, where he tookluncheon. Salutes to his majesty were fired by sev- eral of the warships inthe bay. One Hundred ajid Sixteen Warships In Line. Tho review of the warships took-place— the greatest naval demonstration tha world has ever seen—116 warships, SO oi them line of battle ships, representing an the great nations of the earth. It had been arranged iu the coiu'se of preparations fen the celebration that the assembled war- ships should steanx past the Hohenzonern in review, butfor some unexplained rea- son it was decided later that the emperor' yacht should merely steam through thb lines of the Gorman and foreign fleets ly- ing at anchor. This was accordingly done, aU of the ships saluting the HohenzoUerii as she passed. All of the ships were nter, aUy covered with flags, and in the bright sunshine made a magnificent sx>ectacle. Miss Herbert, daughter of tho United States secretary of the navy, with a partj of friends, was on board the American cruiser New 'York. .Nearly every type oi modern warship was represented, and a fair idea of the effectiveness of the various national forces was .afforded by the several squadrons sent to the gathering of thi3 mighty 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 training ships, tho royal yacht, four torpedo divi- sion boats and 34 torpedo boats, besides numerous^mall craft. The United States was represented by the cruisers NewYork, Columbia, San ITrancisco and Marblehcad. England sent four battleships, three cruis- ers, two torpedo vessels, tho royal yacht and. the admiralty yacht. Austria-Hun- gary sent throe cruisers. France had a battleship and two cruisers, Denmark two cruisers and four torpedo boats, Spain a battleship and two cruisers, Portugal a battleship, Italy four battleships, two cruisers, two torpedo boats and the roya] yacht; Russia a battleship, a cruiser and an armored gunboat; Sweden two turret ships and a gunboat, Norway two gun vessels sxnd six torpedo boats, Turkey a yacht, aud Roxunania a cruiser and a gun vessel;. What ITrench Papers Say. PAEIS, June SI.—The newspapers gen oraUy regard Emperor •William's speech at Hamburg 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 tht wishes expressed by the emperor that Prance and Germany should be reconciled —i. e., that the question of Alsace-Lor- raine be settled. The Soloil remarks that in spite of the pacific tone of the emperor's utterances morose persons remark that peaceful festivities have sometimes pre- ceded torriblo wars. TheRappel, referring to the same subject, says that Europe does not beUove that peace is the solo object oi tho building of the Baltic and North Soa canal. According to La Paix, Emperoi William, desires peace, but "the republic alone can give universal peace to the broth- erhood of nations." The Siecle submits that the peaceful language of the emperoi is inconsistent with the dispatch of a wreatlvto London upon the anniversary o. the battle of "Waterloo. According to The Radical, the simplest method of assuring peace is for Germany to surrender what she owes to a war—apparently referring to Alsace-Lorraine. The Petite RepubHqu6 expresses the opinion that to credit the utterances' of Emperor "William at Ham burg vessels of commerce should have been convoked at Kiel and not warships. Eight Convicts In a Cave. SoaiERVliLlLE, N. J., June SI.—Eight men, supposed to bo convicts that escaped from the Middlesex county jail in New Brunswick, were discovered in a cave in the woods near here.

LOKDCGT, June 31.—The secretary of state for war, Mr. Cantibell-Banuerman, announced in tho house of commons that the Duke «f Cambridge, the commander in chief of the British forces, win resign com- mand of the army on Oct. 1. The announcement that the duke has finally decided to retire from the post of commander in chief of tlie British army WiU be welcome news to very many Britons. Certain English newspa- pers and some sec- tions of the polit- ical parties of Great B.ritain havo been strong- ly urging his re- tirement for years past. Dispatches to the press on May 4 last fore- shadowed the an- nouncement made in the house of DUKE OF CAMBRIDGE, commons. It was then stated that Lord Roberts of Kandahar, would succeed Lord "Wolseley at Dublin as commander of the forces inIreland and that Lord "Wolseley would take the newly created post of chief of the staff at headqiiai'ters in the event of the retirement of title Duke of Cambridge. On May 9 Dr. Tanner, auti-ParneUite member for the middle division of Cork, caused a commotion inthe house of com- mons by asking if the report was true that the Duke of Cambridge was retiring in order to make way for a better man. This caused loud cries of '' Order!'' but Dr. Tan- ner continued, saying, "Has the time at last come when a member of the royal family who has been drawing the people's money too long is going to retire?" A considerable uproar followed, and the house adjoxu-nedwith Mr. Tanner gesticu- lating wildly and trying to address tlie speaker. The Duke of Cambridge is the cousin of Queen "Victoria and was 1301-11 March 26, 1819. Ho became a colonel \-\ the army in 1837 and was made commander in chiet in 1887. He commanded the first division of tho eastern army throughout the cam- paign of 1854 and took part in the battles of the Alma, BalaTilava and Inkernian, where his horse was shot under him. He also participated in the siege of Sevasto- pol. He is colonel in chief of the Seven- teenth lancers, of the Royal artillery, of the Royal engineers, of the Grenadier guards and of the Rifle corps. In addition he is honorary colonel of the Third volun- teer battaUon of the King's Royal Rifle corps and many others. He is pres- ident of numerous coneges, is a personal aid 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 of Cambridge received, but it begins with an annuity of §60,000. Campbell-Bannerman added that future commanders in chief would be subject to the rules affecting other staff appoint- ments, and the office would be tenable for tho usual terms of years, capable of exten- sion. The commander in chief would bo the 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 inspector of forts, each being personaUy responsible to the secretary of state for war, would form a deliberative councU to advise the secretary. TEE TEAE'S SCALE SIGHED. The Agreement J>Iiide at Pittsl>nrg: Givea Work to Twenty 'Eliousanil Men. PITTSBUEG, June 31.—The conference between the wage coinmittees of the Amalgamated association and iron and steel sheet manufacturers ended by signing of the scale to run from July 1 to' June 1 of next year. A sliding scale based on the seningprices of sheets-was adopted instead of the old base of the selling price of bar iron. *The workers are to get 3 per cent of the increase in every 10 per cent advance in tho price of the sheets. This is practi- caUy the same as last year's scale. This wage agreement insures-work for SO, 000 men. A Famous Poisoning Case Eecalled. SAN ITEAHCISCJO, June 21.—Mrs. Spran- ger, who, with her second husband, was accused of murdering her first husband by slow poison, died at a health resort in Santa Cruz mountains of diabetes.

Two influences of tremen- doxzs power contribute to the rise—encour- aging crop news and confident replenish- ing of stocks which have been for two years 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, which would not be supposed to threaten famine if 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 consumption close to the maximum here aud abroad, though the marketing of British goods is not entirely encouraging. Liberal pur- chases of an products by the south do not indicate "belief that any serious naisf orbuiie impends. So the strong trade in wheat growing states accords with brighter crop prospects. Reports from spring wheat states and from the Pacific coast are so cheering that, although the loss of winter wheat was large, those whose estimates have been most accurate in recent years now vary in predictions from 430,000,000 to 470,000,000 bushels. Atlantic exports for three weeks, flour included, have been only 3,758,718 bushels, against 6,006,232 last year, indicating no urgent demand at current prices. There has been a fan of 6 cents in wheat, with heavier sales than for three weeks past. Tlie Rush 3?cr Iron and Steel. The rush for supplies in iron aud steel resembles a "bear panic" iu the stock market. Because prices are mounting ev- erybody hurries to buy, so that they mount higher. Bessemer iron has reached §12.65 at Pittsburg, the Bar association hag ad- vanced common to §1.15, the Wire Nail association puts up tho price to §1.50 per keg, the steel rail makers have raised the price to §24, eastern and southern fur- naces have both raised prices again 50 cents per ton,aud structural beams are §1.35 and angles §1.25. It is undeniable that works in operation are crowded with orders, aud others which have been idle for years are preparing to resume. The general beUef that a combination of coke producers would raise tho price to §1.50 after July 1 is apparently removed by war among the producers and afaUtoSl.25 in contracts for the last half of 1895. Sales of wool at the chief markets, 3,113,700 pounds domestic and 3,844,400 foreign, are larger than in any previous year for the same week, and in three weeks of June have been 19,516,065 pounds, of which 10,631,700 were foreign against 16,988,600 in 1892, of which 7,764, - 800 were foreign. Holding of stocks by growers for higher prices has caused an advance inthe average of 104 qualities of domestic wool quoted by Coates Bros, from 13.09 cents June 1 to 13.27 cents, but Australian is bought on a large scale at 36 to 38 cents for combing and 34 to 36 cents for clothing, both scoured, and want of domestic supplies is evidently causing hea^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 opened their Clay worsteds at an advance of about 2K per cent, though some lower grades are reduced'" in price. Advances continue in cotton goods and are sustained by un- usual demand and scarcity at a time when the mills are generaUy anxious to clear oft old stocks. Shipments of boots and shoos for the week have been the largest evei known in anyweek, 101,425 cases accord- ing to The Shoe and Leather Keporter, and for three weeks of June have been 11 pei cent larger than in anyprevious year. Many shops are stopping though most have orders to August or September. Railroad stocks have grown slightly stronger with bettor crop news, and the earnings in June average 10.4 per com larger than last year, but 15.8 per cent lesb than in 1893. Shipments from Chicago in two weeks of June were 97,504 tons against 99,728 last year, aud 105,463 in 1S93. With sterling exchange at the ship ping point, gold exports axe not expected unless the syndicate sees fit to make them for purposes of its own, although the merchandise balance would call for ship- ments, and foreign trading in stocks has been insignificant. Evidences of better em- ployment of money in the interior multi- ply, but funds continue to gravitate hith- er, andone large loan for an Olneyvfflfc mill, with good New Tork indorsement, was placed for 45days at 1% per cent per annum, although commercial loans ar6 more freely offered and taken, failures for the week have been 228 inthe United States against 214 last year and 31 in Can ada against 25 last year. Trolley Cars In Collision. NEWBUKG, N. T., June 21.—Two trol- ley cars, one bound east and the other west, collided on the Walden and Orange Lake road while both were running at a high rate of speed.

NEW yoBK, June 21.—WaU street took the liveliest interest in the appearance of Mr. J. Pierpont Morgan at Ms office again affer an .absence in Europe of several months. Mr. Morgan, with Mr. August Bebnont, had a few weeks before he sailed made the now famous contract with Sec- retary Carlisle for the sale to the govern- ment of 3,5.00,000 ounces of gold. At least Dne-half of the §65,000,000 bonds issued to pay for this gold was placed in Europe throiigh banking houses allied With the New York houses of J. J?. Morgan & Co. and August Belnio'nt.& Co., but even aft- er this London banking houses were large sellers of securities, which added to the burden of controlling the foreign ex- changes indirectly assumed bythe syndi- cate. It was not until after Mr. Morgan had arrived in London that a distinct change was noted in the foreign sentiment toward American securities. The heavy foreign selling of securities ceased, foreign houses became eager buyers on the Stock Ex- change, and for a time it seemed as if the foreign appetite for American securities was insatiable. Mr. Morgan says: "The feeling abroad is very strongly in favor of American securities. They recog- nize the fact that tho government is pledged to maintain the gold standard and are consequently disposed to buy American securities, especially those of a very choice character, for which the mar- ket is almost unlimited. The issues'which have recently been sold are selling at large premiums,and other negotiations are pend- ing." Mr. Morgan has not had time to look into the situation here, but is satisfied that a reorganization of the Northern Pacific and the Erie will be undertaken without material delay. A NEW OUTPUT POESILVES. JL Vast Quantity WU1 Go Abroad if Auier- i-CSLns Secure tlie Ciiinese X.oaxu WASHIKGTOH, June 31.—Officials of the Chinese legation say that the American capitalists Who are negotiating Si China to secure the loan of 800,000,000 taels which China is about to pay to Japan stand quite as good a chance of securing the loan as any other money representatives. Some misapprehension has been created by a ca- bled statement that China had closed her loan in Paris. It is explained bythe offi- cials here that this loan is a subordinate one of 16,000,000 taels to cover the surren- der of the Liau-Tong peninsula. The main loan of 200,000,000 taels is still open to tjhe bids of American investors. There is much speculation as to the re- sult of the loan if it is secured by the American parties. It is said that the first result would be the shipment of an unprec- edented anioxint of silver. But as China's bonds are payable in gold tho ultimate re- sult would be to bring back gold for the silver paid to Japan. It is xsointed out also that the interest on the entire loan will not exceed §5,000,000 annuaUy, so that the Chinese customs receipts of §23,000,000 wiU readily meet tho interest charges and provide a sinking fund for the redemption of the bonds, which wiU probably run for 20 years. To Juoolt: After Americans In Armenia. r, June SI.—Having in view the possibility of further trouble in Ar- menia, involving naturalized American citizens, congress in its last session created two additional United States consulates there at Harpeut and Brzerum. Delaney Hunter, a clerk in the consular bureau here, has been sent to Harpeut, and Robert S. Chilton, another clerk, has been in- structed to go to Brzerum.

Bead the following letter of praise fromMrs. M. Manchester, Cornwall, Vt.:

F. L. TaetMeaicalOo.:GENTLEMEN:—I can highly recommend

Fig Cordial. I have a daughter, aged tenyears, which we doctored from infancyfor constipation. At last we were advisedby our physician to try Fig Cordial. Weare now using the fourth bottle, and cansay that it has helped her more than allother remedies tried. Would advisemothers to use it for cross, fretful chil-dren. Yours truly,

MRS. H. MANCHESTER,Cornwall, Vt.

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

has reached here from Constantinople say-ing that a state plot directed against thesultan of Turkey has been discovered inthe Pacicaldi Military coUege, where 80students were arrested. The students de-clared themselves to be opposed to the pres-ent regime, which, they maintain, is trans-forming a peaceful population into a hordeof savages.

President Bauks Hurt.NEW YORK, June 21.—Mark Banks, 90

years old, of Greenwich, Conn., presidentof the Greenwich Savings bank of thiscity, foil heavily while alighting from atrain in the Grand Central station. Mr.Banks struck the back of his head on thecar step. Ho was removed to his house byfriends.

Byrnes XCefuses !S15,OOO a Year.

NEW YORK, June 31.—Ex-Chief Byrnes,according to common report, has been of-fered a confidential place at a salary o£$15,000 a year by a foreign, government.Byrnes says ho win not accept the offerand refuses to state what government madeit.

Prosperity Killed Him.

HAZEETOS, Pa., June 21.—Joseph Se-grose cominittud suicide by throwing him-self in front of a passenger train at Au-denreid. Scgrose recently came into pos-session of considerable money, and if isbelieved thia made him insane.

ENDE3 TS A D3AW,McKinley Pleased Secause Silver Was Xeft

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."

A feature of the meeting of the Arkan-sas delegation was tho presentation of asilver souvenir of the convention to MissjFrownio Knoiwlton, the "daughter of thedelegation." 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.

In hisdefense he admitted he had written someof the checks he had circulated, but thatit was with tho consent of the personswhose narnesi wore signed to them. ITrankDbcon, whose name was signed to one §500check, was his father's old partner in thulumber business in Michigan. 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.

George Mitchell, an expert, testified thathe believed that the Dixon checkhad beenwritten by Whitman. This formed themain evidence against the prisoner. Thejury was out an hour, finding a verdict ofguilty. "Whitman is a graduate of Yalouniversity. He was at one time mayor ofDututh.

Grand Naval Parade — JTrenciiPapers Skeptical About Peace.

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.

EAEKES TALES,

, June 21.—Dun's weeklytrade review-says: He who sees a setbackin business at this tinae^^imst be gazingthrough a telescope pointed by mistake atsome other country. 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.
