The women of the Methodist Episco- pal Church are making slow progress toward admission to the general confer- ence, though something of an agitition, at times quite animated, has been kept up in that direction for several years past. In some sections of the country, more particularly in the West perhaps than elsewhere, public sentiment is largely on the side of the women in this matter ; in other sections there is a lukewarmness on ' the subject that is hard to arouse into any semblance of enthusiasm. ‘ The press In this matter is with the women—the veiitable mothers and. daughters of Israel—who desire no less than they deserve representation in the great conferences of their church. In no small measure is it due to its women that the Methodist Church is what it is. Theirs is the working element which, more than any other, shrinking from no weight of toil (r burden of self- sacrifice in behalf of the vast religious organization with which they are iden- tified, has contributed so Immeasurably to its magnitude and influence. A class of Christian workers whose power is constantly making itself felt in the doing of good deeds and the dis— semination of good gifts, whose path- way of missionary labor lies out among the highways and byways of life,vstrewn with blessings as it runs its course, shouldnotbedcbarred from any ave- nue of religious endeavor; and we can- not readily understand why the women and thc Conferences have not long since embraced one another with open arms. There is some encouragement in the fact, however, that at the recent sess10n of the Baltimore Methodist Episcopal Conference the vote upon the question of admitting women to participation in its proceedings was 116 out of 181, though not of the requisite majority. There is enough encouragement in it, at any rat), to warrant the belief that many years will not elapse before but Maryland sisters overleap the limits of conservatism by which their full use- fulness in the church is at present more or less handicapped. In Charge of a Keeper. The factory of the W. W. 85 M. R. Keyes company In Bridgeport is in charge of a. keeper under the direction of constable Charles Stagg of Stratford. Tuere are a number of attachments on t is place and it will be some time before t to matter can be straightened out. Judge Sellezck, who is the. heaviest loser by the actions of his son-in-law, W. W. Keyes, was at the county court house Fridav in consult mon wit-h Attorney Levi Warner of this city, his counsel. After the talk Mr. Warner stated to a reporter that there were no new devel- opments in the case. He said that in all probability a receiver would be ask- el for, but no steps had been taken in that direction. Papers were given to Deputy Sheriff Curtis to serve, but their contents could not be learned. 1. ._1-__..._<+ ’Tw/as Ever Thus. It is stated on authority that Charles S. Barraclough has received a letter from his wife, who it is alleged eloped with Fred Hyatt last week. The letter , was written from Brooklyn, and in it she disavows all reports to the efi'cct that she left here in company with Hyatt. Barraclough left yesterday for Brooklyn, which gives credence to the report that his wife is willing, If not anxious, to return 1;) Norwalk. In Hyatt’s defence it is stated. that he is in the western part of New York state and that he is ignorant of the stories published as to his alleged elo'pement. His story, say some people, “would go through the meshes of a like net,” It ismtlearned that either Mrs. Barra- clough or. Mr. Hyatt will ask to be re instated in the Baptist church society. O Democratic Nominations. The Democratic city convention at Bridgeport, last night nominated Frank E. Clark for Mayor; for city clerk, Fred C. Mullins; for city treasurer, Fred Hall; for tax collector, F. J. Mooney. G. B. Lee was nominated for town clerk and l) ave Fenelnn failed to receive the nomination for city sheriff. - l T0 LEGALIZE RACING. Provisions of the Gray-Percy Bill Intro- duced at Albany. _ ‘ ALBANY, March BIL—Tho amended Gray-Percy racing bill was presented in the assembly today. While in tho commit— too on orders it has been changed in many respects. ' No associations are named in the amended bill as being entitled to the bene- fits of the ncawlaw as in the original bill, however, and in the place of the list pre- viously given it is provided that any cor- poration formed under the provisions of the act shall have the power to hold one or more trotting or racing meetings in each year. , , At such meetings the corporation, own- ers of horses or others may contribute stakes to be contested for, but no persons other than the owners of horses shall have any interest in a stake contested for or re- ceive any portion thereof after such race is finished. The whole of the stake shall be allotted in accordance with the terms and conditions of the race. The season for holding race meetings is limited from the 15th of April to the 15th of November and to 40 days upon any one course. The most important provision of the new bill pro- vides that hereafter there shall be a state racing commission. Within ten days after the passage of this act the governor shall appoint three persons to be members of such commission, who shall hold office for the term of . five years, no two of whom shall be members of the same racing asso- ciation. They are not to receive any com- pensation except their expenses. Concerning betting, the bill says that all trials of speed for any bet, stake or reward, except such as allowed by this act or by special laws are a public nuisance, and-0v- ery person acting or aiding therein is con- sidered guilty of a. misdemeanor. It is also provided that any person who makes or records a bet directly or indirectly upon any race course shall forfeit the value of any money or property so wagered, received or held by him to be recovered in a civil ac- tion by the person or persons with whom such wager is made or by whom such money or property is deposited. This is the only penalty provided by the bill and is exclusive of all penalties pre- scribed by other laws for the acts specified. Infirmary Superintendent Indicted. CINCINNATI, March Bit—The United States grand jury has announced 11 indict- ments. The chief one was that of Frank H.

HOYT’S OPERA HOUSE. “Friend Fritz” is one of the most pleasing plays in which Jack Mason and his accomplished wife, Marion Ma- uola Mason have yet appeared, Its musical numbers are sweet and give full scope to Manolo’s rich voice, which is just as strong and full as it ever was, despite the desperate sickness through which she has passed. It tells a' story of every day life and a simple tale of love, but so 'choicely handles it that every moment of the presentation is enjoyable. “Friend Fritz” will be given at Hoyt’s Opera House Tuesday evening by the Manola—Mason com- pany. .. _ Buy the Gaznrrn.

Explanation of the Strong Improvement In Cotton Prices—\Vlreat’s Rise and Sub- sequent Slump—Volume of Bull- ness Gains a. Little. NEW YORK, March 23,—R. G. Dun & 00. ’5 weekly review of trade says: Indications of improvement in business. grow more distinct. The most obtrusive of them, the speculative advance in cotton and in stocks, is the least reliable, nor can either of these be said to reflect actual im- provement in business conditions. road earnings are scarcely better, and the speculation is largely based on expectation of more effective monopoly in coal and 501110 other products. London was buying largely, but is as likely to sell on any risc. Cotton does not rise because there is more demand for goods, but there is more de- mand for goods because cotton is dearer. More valuable indications are that the volume of domestic trade gains a little, money is in much better legitimate de- mand and the force of hands at work grad~ ually increases in some industries and in others is restricted only by strikes, which are presumably temporary. Tho threaten- ed strike of coke workers has been avoided by an advance of 15 per cent in wages, and the strike in building trades here has ended, the men returning to work. The rise in cotton to 6.31 cents still seems to have scarcely any contact with the facts of demand and supply, but had a very substantial basis, nevertheless, if. as some maintain, morc cotton had been sold in this country for future delivery than 7 could be, produced here until another crop‘ comes. American stocks were last Friday 1,345,028 bales, against 1,154.700 last year, with the general expectation that some- thing ovcr 700,00tI ‘, 2.20.; will yet come for- ward, while forcign stocks of American are 600,000 bales greater than at date after the great crop of 1891. Receipts continue large, and the movement has really no other basis than belief that the next crop will be small. ' The Reaction In Wheat. The rise in wheat, which started with the report of wheat in farmers’ hands, has been followed byl'reaction, so that prices are lower than they were prior to that re- port, having fallen 2%, cents for the week. Western receipts are 1,988,214 bushels against 1,633,331 last year. and for three weeks were practically equal to last year’s, while Atlantic exports are small. Corn has not followed, but after a rise to 51% cents holds the price of a week ago, receipts being about a third of last year’s and ex- ports insignificant. Pork has declined 25 cents per barrel, and lard 10 cents per 100 pounds. Railroad stocks have risen an average of $1.45 per share, several of the leading coal and granger stocks having advanced $2 to $5 per share, and accounts of foreign buy- ing are frequent. But there is nothing to warrant advancing stocks of grain carriers ' in the reports of short supplies of grain,- present and prospective, nor will a. short cotton crop help southern roads. Coal stocks are lifted by hope that a new com- pact between the carriers will avoid com— petition. Earnings in March have been only 1.9 per cent larger than last year, and 11.7 per cent smaller than in 1893, though some improvement appears in the second week of March compared with the first, and west bound traffic is increasing. Chi- cago east bound traffic for two weeks has been 120,013 tons against 176, 581 last year and 172,373 in 1893. The advance in wages of coke workers raises the cost of fuel for alarge proportion of the iron manufacturers, but as yet does not affect prices of iron or its products, as no increase in demand (appears. _ Possibly. it is hoped that larger buying will soon be prompted by the idea. that pig and all prod— ucts will be rendered more costly, though large excess of production and producing capacity stands in the way. One sale of 10,000 tons of steel rails, one cast pipe con; .tract for 9, 000 tons.’a bridge and five build- ing contracts aggregating nearly 5,000 tons, are reported this week, but pig iron is weak without change both at the east and at Pittsburg, and no change of consc- qucnco is noted in the demand for finished products. Metals, Boots and Shoes. Copper continues weaker at 9.25 cents for lake, American production in Febru- ary being 12,720 tons and foreign 6,739, While tin has risen sharply to 13.9 cents. Lead is weaker with heavy sales, 2,500 tons to domestic and 1.500 to foreign tak- crs at 3.05 to 3.1 cents, but large sales of tin plate are reported with prices a shade stronger. Shipments of boots and shoes from Boston for three weeks have been 242, 428 cases against 207, 302 last year and 247,109 in 1893, and some important or- ders at the advance in prices have started several other establishments at about half their capacity. The rise in cotton has stimulated buy- ing of goods and given confidence to agents. Heavy transactions and some ad- vances in price appear in southern coarse goods, but not as yet in the finer. Strikes in textile mills grownnore numerous, es- pecially in woolen mills which have orders enough to run full time, operatives appar- ently assuming that these must be realiz- ing profits, but margins are so scanty that advance in wages is for most works im- possible. While many orders are delayed by labor difficulties, there is also much complaint of cancellations, which appear to be justified in some cases by inferior quality, but in others not justified ’at all. Orders'for fall are at present small, and new business has been quiet. Sales of wool gradually decrease and for the week are smaller than last year-44,174, 900 pounds against 4,338,800. For three Weeks 'of March sales indicate about 70 per cont-of a full consumption. The volume of business through clear- ing houses gains a little, being 14.1 per cent larger than last year; for the week but 22.1 per cent less than in 1893. Most of the increase is at New York, and here and elsewhere partly due to speculatiOn. Bankers report a. decided increase in com- mercial paper offered, and western banks give evidence of larger demand by reduc- ing balances here. Liabilities in failures for the first two weeks of March were for .the first time in more than a year larger than a year ago—44573721471 against 84,-! 835,140 last year, $4,672,554 being of man”; ufacturing concerns against 82, 330,257 last year, and $2,674,917 of trading con- cerns against 32, 446, 068 last y'ea'r." But col- lections are, on the" whole. satisfactory. Failures during the past week have been 278 in the United States against 244 last year, and 35 in Canada against 50' last year. Newsboys wanted.
