high olllcial source here suggests ti rat
the German emperor and the sultan
haVe come to an understanding of the
highs st importance.
The belief is that the kaiser has plum
niiscd the sultan protection and to in-
sure the maintenance of the Turkish
empire’s integrity, in return for excep-
tional German commercial and inclus-
ti-ial privileges in Asia. Minor.
German instructors having shown in
the Greco—Turkish war what they could
do for the Turkish army, German trad-
ers and capitalists now will be given
full opportunity to show what they can
do for Turkish commerce. ‘
Permission has been granted to the
Austolian Company to extend the Sku-
rbekir and Bagdadt othe Persian gulf.

This has great strategic value to Tur-
key, seeing that these places are in thu
distiict of the Sixth corps of the Tui‘ \-
ish army, 11 hile this union of the set 1
of Maiinora with the Persian gulf, with
the erection of a fort at Haidar Pasha,
gives an immense impetus to German
commercial influence, and, in the opin—
ion of the sultan, constitutes an effect—
ual check to any advance of Russia
from Erzerum.
Moreover, with the completion of the
contemplated , changes, Smyrna and
Skutari in Asia Minor and Alexandret-
ta, Beirut, Haida, Akka and Yafa, in
Palestine, will be within the radius of
an efficient loop line service, which will
furnish more important markets with
connecting transit. '
Asiatic Turkey comes'within the zone
of German influence by thé power of
these contracts. It is also noteworthy
that an English syndicate is employ-
ing Count Kaprist, brother of the Rus-
sian ambassador at Vienna, to negoti-
ate for rights to connect Tripoli, via
Syria and Mesopotamia, and the valley
of the Euphrates, with the Persian
gulf.
British Naval Activity.
London, Nov. 5.—The Central News
says there is reason to believe that the
admiralty will shortly organize a for-
midable cruiser division as an emer-
gency fleet.
The work of getting the ships ready,
in fact, has already been started.
A dispatch to the Central News from
Paris says that the evacuation of Fa—
shoda. is assured. The Ministry has
been largely influenced in taking this
course by the pressure of representa-
tions from various towns which mem—
orilizes the Government in favor of
peace. The tone of the newspapers is
now less pessimestic.
The French and Russian Ambassa-
dors caled at the Foreign Office this
afternoon and conferred with Lord
Salisbury.
Prior to these conferences. Mr. Goch--
on. First Lord of the Admii‘ality, had
an extended interview with the Pre—
mier.

To Reform New PossesionsI
’Washington, Nov. 5.—-A call has been
issued for a National Christian citi-
7'pship convention, to be held here De-
cember 3 to 15, to discuss Whether suf-
frage should be limited by educational
E's-ts in the new island territories, or
civil service reform be extended there.
They will discuss, also, if the national 3
lens forbidding prize fights and bull '
tights restrilting divorce and forbid-
ding bigamy and related evils, and
the American civil Sabbath should be
extended to these is.ands.
The call is signed by Josiah Strong,

Distress of the Cuban Arm y.
W'ashington, Nov. 5.'——A letter fron
Lieutenant Colonel‘ Carbon'nc of the
"“uban army, udw at Havana, has beer
received by Secretary Quesada of the
Culian delegation here; who has laid i1
before Secretary Alger, with an urgem
request that steps he take’n to relieve
the extreme distress it sets forth.
Lieutenant Colonel Carbonne is re-
gored (i as the representatiVe at Ha
vnna of the Cuban leaders and forces
in the field. '.
Secretary Alger said that he would
‘ook into the matter and would tele-
graph the commission at Havana such.
instructions as were appropriate to the
case.
Mr. Platt‘s Bank to Resume.
Washington, Nov. 5.—-Comptroller of
‘he Currency DaWes has authorized the
Tings National Bank to resume busi-
HESS.
This was the result of a long confer-
ence between Senator Platt, the presi.
dent of the bank, his son Frank Flatt,
and Comptroller Dawes. "
The latter was shown that by the in-
vestigation of the bank examiner the
bank was not affected by the defalca-
tion of the cashier, and so permission
was given for it to resume.
'enue theatre was
and elsewhere steady, the general de--
mand eiowds on the heels of produc-
tion. ’ .27- ‘-*'-=' ‘
After seven weeks of strike, the
Brockton lasters are asking work on
the old terms, having failed to dictate
to the machine companies, but new
hands are so numerous that shipments
from that point have been 52,700 cases
against 55,875 last year, during six
weeks of the strike. From Boston the
shipments have been for five weeks
larger than ever before.
Wool holders at Boston have discov—
ered the falsity of reports which they
have long believed about the available
stocks in this country, and have be-
gun selling largely at concessions said
to be “several cents” per pound. The
week’s sales at the three chief markets
were 10, 797, 400 pounds, against 9, 957, 902
last year, and 18, 561, 600 in 1896, but only
8,215,000 in 1892.
Cotton is again at the lowest point
ever known, 5.31 cents for spot, while
Mr. Neill estimates a crop of 11, 5‘ 0,000
bales, besides large stocks bought over
1here and abroad. There is nothing to
indicate that the foreign demand will
be greatly reduced compared with last-
year, nor will the home demand as a
whole, although northern manufactur-
ers may be obliged to curtail produc-
tion owing to competition at the South.
Wheat exports continue very large,
amounting to 4,699,576 bushels from At-
lantic ports, flour included, against 3,-
287,536 last year, and 1, 029, 838 from Pa-
cific p01ts, against 1,592, 252 last year,
but the heavy exports have been much
more than matched by western re-
ceipts of 9,490,092 bushels, against 7,-
600,993 last year, and pricesrhave not
changed materially.
Corn goes abroad largely, 3,011,085
bushels during the week, against 1,812,-
943 last year, and prices are well held. '
Railroad earnings in October thus far
reported have been 5.8 per cent. larger
than last year and 6.1 per cent. larger
than in 1892, notwithstanding the gen-
eral complaint of cutting of rates, and
the returns are on the whole the best
of the year thus far.
While domestic exports from New
York for four weeks past have been
29 per cent. larg er than last year in
value, for four weeks past, imports
have been also somewhat larger, but
the difference indicates another enor—
mous balance in favor of this country,
not at present covered by specie move-
ment or by exchange loans, which are
growing very heavy.
The country is so largely «a creditor
that as yet it does not know its own
DO\V€l‘.
Failures for the week have been 194
in the United States, against 276 last
year, and 28 in Canada against 30 last
year.
Clyde Liner Burns at Sea.
Vineyard Haven, Mass, Nov. 5.~—A
disaster at sea, fortunately with a
small loss of life—five persons in all—
was made known yesterday by the
landing of 22 persons who escaped
. from the burning steamship Croatan of
1the Clyde line, bound from New York
for Wilmington, N. C., and Georgetown
S. C.
The disaster occurred on November
:1. about eighteen miles north 'of Cape
Charles. and about 206 miles from New
York, from 11 inch port the steamer
.sailed on October 31, with a general
caigo and eight passengers.
At 3 o’clock in the afternoon the hulk
of the big freighter sank beneath the
VV av es, but of the 27 persons VV ho were
on board of her only 22 have survived.
These persons were landed at this port
‘yesterday afternoon by the schooner
Alice E. Clark of Portland, Me., which
was in the vicinity of the Croatan at
the time she was burning.
Joseph Jefferson Ill.
New York, Nov. 5.-——Owing to the
sudden and serious illness of Joseph
Jefferson, the audience in the Fifth av—
dismissed at 8.10
o’clock last night.
The illness of Mr. Jefferson is more
serious than was supposed at first. He
was suffering only from a. cold, but
his friends now fear that the cold may
develop into pneumonia, which, at- his
time of life, Would be exceedingly dan-
C*erous.
Charles B. Jeffersqu, the actor's son,
took a hopeful view of the case last
night, and said that there was great
hope of his father’s recovery.
During his engagement at the Fifth
avenue theatre Mr. Jefferson has been
a guest of the Halland house. In that
hotel at midnight it was said that the
actor's condition was bad, but no bui-
letin was issued by his physician.

9A resident of Chicago, who is one

met a man the other day who was as
homely as himself. They exchanged
condolences.
“I never but once saw a man who
looked worse than I do,” said the Chi-
cago man. “I was hunting in north-
ern Michigan when I ran against a
fellow whose face would frighten an
army.

“He stood there under the trees for

castic drarwl, ‘lf I look any uglier than
you do, for goodness sake, shoot!’ ”—
