ITS OBJECT ACCOMPLISHED ,
The Influential Combination of Capitalists
is Apparently Satisfied ,
NO FURTHER FAILURES ARE REPORTED ,

Nnw Yonn , Nov. 13. The stock markft
today , while still very nctlvo , showed less ox-
cltctncnt in early trading nnd afterwards
subsided Intj the ordinary appearance , wltb
only the usual fluctuations , Tbo general
fcclln ? In the street has undergone n marked
change for the better , and the opinion of
most habitues of tbo street h that the object
'of the Influential combination of capitalists
which has forced the recent decline bus been
accomplished , nnd with the affecting of the
reforms In railroad business now proposed
there will como n general Improvement In
values. The Into reaction from low prices
two days ago Is regarded as principally the
effect of the coveting of short * , together with
some buying by those who had thrown their
holdlrgs over ou tbo scare. There were no
further failures or bank suspensions to dis
turb the oven course of events , but the bears
'demonstrated ' the fnct that thov
bnvo not aa yet gene Into their
holes , and nro still very much
nllve. The natural tendency of prices to ad
vance after the late severe drop was checked
aud xvhiio fluctuations were on a compara
tively small scale they were In some cases
very material , though final changes were In
most cases for fractional amounts only.
The stock market this morning felt
tbo Inlluenco of the suspension of
the North Hlvcr hunk nnd the disclos
ures In ronrd ( ? to tbo North American
company , and first prices were gen
erally fractions lower than yester
day's final figures. A flood of
North American was poured upon tbo mar
ket in the llrat tew in mutes trading and tbo
prlco dropped suddenly from 1(5 ( to' ' , a loss of
lljtf per cent from last night. Although some
of the others sympathized with this weak
ness the market outside of North American
was not specially active , aud with the absence
of special pressure to sell there came a ma
terial reaction , North American going back
to 11JX end settllnff to about the lovcl of 11 for
the remainder of the hour to 11 o'clock.
A confident feeling was soon restored and
tbo activity Increased towards the end of tbo
hour , while prices advanced more rapldlythe
cnlns over tliu lowest prices of the early dealings - '
ings extending to "kf per cent ? carrying the
list beyond tbo prices of last evening. The
market ut II o'clock wns active and strong at
the highest figures of the hour.
At noon money was tight at 12 per cent.
Active buslness'was sustained In the stock
mnrhetaftcrll o'clock , but the high prices
of the llr.st hour were not surpassed and a de-
cllnliiR tendency developed , but only a portion
tion of the early advance was lost. The
Vlllnrds were the most active , but
St. Paul and other grangers wore still promt-
lient. Later In the hour North American re
acted to ! ) , but tbo general list was
fairly well held , und nt noon tbo market was
nctlvo and steady , generally at small frac
tions better than the opening.
After IS o'clock stocKs were quiet nnd firm.
The best prices of the forenoon were ncnln
reached. A decided weakness developed to-
wnrd 2 , however. Sugar Kcfliiorlos became
the lender , dropping from fi3 to 54J < ; St. I'aul
J.Vto-JSKt Northern preferred 13f : to GOif ,
Atcblson 1 to ! ! 0 , ' . After some hesitation
the decline wns resumed. Union Pacific
scored a loss of 1 ? . The downward move
ment then acquired additional force , the mar
ket becoming demoralized , und before the do-
.livery hour all the forenoon's advance was
wiped out , with fractions In addition. At
Ssl5 ) ) . in. the market was nctlvo and weak
at the lowest prices of the day. .
Ollldala of the North American company
, have authorized the statement that it Is per
fectly solvent. They say the creditors were
called together simply to satisfy them ot the
Bound condition of the company aud to obtain
tholr co-operation. Iho company has made
no assignment and Intends to make none.
The Kvcnlng Post says : "Early prices for
stocks , both In London nnd In this market ,
were lower , the effect of the suspension of
.tho North Hlvor bank at the close of business
yesterday , together with the xinderstanding
that Its losses would require It to bo wound
up. But later , when It was known tnat tbo
fortnightly settlements In- London had been
completed without failure and the Bank of
England rate remained unchnngcd , there
was a general recovery and by 11:80 : ncarlv
every stock on the list except North Ameri
can was up to last night's prices and many
above , notably Northern Pacillc preferred ,
Western Union , Itock Island and Northwest
ern. "
The list Is again lower and Sugar down n
Northern Pacilio preferred 2Y , Pacillo Mail
lf ( , Loulsvlllo A Nashville 1H and North
American % , with only fractional changes
in the rest of the active stock * .

A Stranger Empties Two Revolvers nt
a Ktntton AuimU
S'BWVniK , Nov. 13. [ Special Telegram to
Tnr. Uni ! , ] J. I' , Hnpelye , assistant station
ngcnt nt . tbo Newton station of the Long
Island railroad , had nn experience on Tues
day night which ho Is not likely to forget
soon. While In charge of the station nt about
llili ! p.m. , after the last train had gene to
New York , nwell dressed man entered nud
Inquired If the last train had gone. On being
told It bad ho bccamo nbu lve , declaring the
train had loft ahead of tlmo and wanted n
special train run for his bnnuut. Kapcl.yo
tried to ex plain that the train had "hot loft
ahead of tlmo , whereupon the man pulled
two long revolvers from his pocket and
leveled them nt Kupelyo's head. Thinking
ho was not In earnest Hapelyo jokingly asked
if they were loaded. IIo found out that they
were upon bearing the report nud a bullet
whi/zcd past his head nnd crashed through
the window behind him. Rapclyc , who had
no weapon with which to defend himself ,
dropped to the floor and crawled bcliln da
partition , whereupon the man emptied ono of
his revolvers over Hapclyu's head. The
bullets came through tno screen work nnd
passed through the glass window on the op-
po-tlto side of the odlce.
Owing to the lateness of the hour no ono
came to Kupelyo's assistance , and after lay
ing in nn uncomfortable position for about n.i
hour ho attempted to como from his hiding
place , whereupon the man started to empty
his second revolver and bullets were flying
in nil directions. After his lost bullet wns
discharged the stranger went out nnd was
lost In tbc darkness.
Knpelyo Informed David P. Smith , the
ngent , who lives near tbo station , of what
had occurred , and with Thomas Welch , the
night gatoman , who had been away during
the shooting , started out well armed in search
of the would-be-murderer , but they were un
able to flnd any trace of him ,
The Great Tcmpcrniico Advocate's
Kricmls Working For Her Klcutioii.
Cnicioo , Nov. 13. [ Special Telegram to
Tnr.BrK.1 Considerable interest has been
aroused lu Methodist church circles by a story
to the effect that Miss Frances "VVlllard's
friends are making an effort to have nor
elected a bishop of that denomination. The
recent agitation of the question as to whether
or not women are eligible for service as lay
delegates to the general conference is , says
Dame Humor , duo to the dcslro of thcso
friends to secure the position for the great
temperance advocate.
Presiding Elder Truosdoll said this morn
ing , when questioned In regard to the mat
ter : "Aa to any woman's eligibility to bo
elected to any olllco in the church , such as
editor , agent , secretary or bishop , it depends
entirely upon whether she can get a majority
of votes , lay and clerical , In the general con
ference. It ordinarily takes 1250 votes to so-
euro an election , so you see Miss \Villard's
election to the position of bishop depends only
indirectly upon the admittance of lady dele
gates to the general conference. As to her
candidacy , I have heard nothing ; but If she
can secure the required number of votes she
will cqrtainly secure the position.

There have been frequent consultations nt
ihowhlto house recently between the presi
dent nnd the ofllclnls of the war nnd Interior
departments relntlvo to the course to bo pur
sued towards the Indians nt the Standing
Itock and Pine Kldgo agoneie.-i. The o con
ferences have been necessitated by the hoi-
tlio attitude of the Indians and especially In
view of the announcement that n Messiah Is
among them and who has promised to deliver
the white men into their hands for punish
ment. For awhile there wus llttlo apprehen
sions of trouble of any inngnltudo but a com
munication received lit tho'Interior depart
ment today from Agent lloyor at thu Pitio
llldgo agency caused n great deal of uncasi-
tifss. Ilu represented that while attending n
heat dance the other evening a party of In
dians became very insolent , and belligerent
nnd when rebuked announced their Intention
of going on the wurpath. An effort was
made to arrest the offenders whereupon other
members of their tribe interfered nnd
the agent was compelled to order
their release. This seemed only to
increase their evil designs and they went
away threatening dire vengeance upon the
ugent mid all connc'cwd with him and it is
feared that serious results might bo appre
hended. With a view to averting trouble ho
recommends that United States troops ho or
dered tothescunoof the tnreiitoned disturb
ance nnd bo present particularly the next
time that rations nro issued two weoKshence.
It wns also stated by the agent that there
were many things of which the Interior de
partment should bo Informed nnd that lie
would have to come to Washington as ho
could not toll it nil in a written document.
Immediately upon the receipt of this commu
nication Acting Secretary Chandler of the in
terior department sent to the president , who'
summoned the acting secretary of war , ( Sen-
oral Grant , mid the greater portion of tha
day wns devoted tothls matter. It waslhiully
decided to leave the question to bosotUml by
General Thomas II. Htigor , commanding the
department of Dakota , who. a few days ago
received instructions from the war flcpart-
ment to visit Standing HOCK agency und othur
points where trouble was anticipated and report -
port the resuit of his observations at once to
the authorities at Washington. As a pre
cautionary measure it wns also doomed ex
pedient to have troops contiguous to tlio spot
when rations are to bo issued nnd which i.
about eighteen miles distant from riilroad
communication. Judge Chandler v/as not in
clined to bo very much alarmed over .ho out
look when Interrogated this uftcmcmi , say
ing that It hud resolved itself into a uuestiou
whether or not the agent should be permit ! n < 1
to como to Washington ,
"IIo would like to como hero and have a
talk , " said the Judge , "but the Interior de
partment thinks that ho can be of moro ser
vice by remaining on the spot and attending
to his duties. To be sure , thcro has boon con
siderable muttering nnd discontent mani
fested recently among the Indians , commence
ing at Standing Hock , where Sitting Hull !
located , and extending do > vn to tlio Pin ,

has been kept fully Informed of all that has

The fact tlmt Senator Gorman Is In New
York nnd hns becu consulting with Governor
Hill of that Btnto on the question of the
spcakcrshlp of the next house has
caused a great deal of comment In
democratic circles at the eapltol. That
this subject was discussed is known
nml two significant points in regard to ISfti
nro drawn from the interview. Thoilrstls
that Gorman nud his colleagues are afraid of
the tremendous majority in the next house
nnd know that the only way to save It from
blundering Is to have a quiet and conserva
tive speaker. From his position of promi
nence the next speaker of t lie house will bo
in training for the tail end of the democratic
ticket , therefore Governor Hill has an Interest - '
est In the selection of the coming innii. The
second point educed from the Interview Is the
fnct that Gorman nnd the democratic sena
tors arc ofTerinr- their aid to Hill to secure
the nomination for the bond of the ticket In
18W , with the speaker of the house as the
vlco presidential nominee nnd Hill us the
president. The former must naturally como
from the west , as the latter is from the east.
This is what the southern democrats rave
about. They say that the senate , with the
rilll democrats , will try to crowd out the
south and put n western man lu the upcakur's
chair. They are boiling mad over the pros
pect and declare the senate has no right to
interfere in house matters , especially the
selection of a speaker. But this will not defeat -
feat Gorman from making his deal with Hill.
Of all the western men spoken of.
thcro nro three to bo ioloctw ]
from. They uro Bynutn of Indiana
Springer of Illinois and Hutch of Missouri.
Bynum is too loud-mouthed for Gormuu.
Springer is effervescing and uncertain und
the remaining man seems to bo the only one
left. If ho can bo Induced to become n Hill
man against Cleveland tbo combine's efforts
must bo In his favor , but If the deal cannot bo
nmde la this way the ( Jormun combination
will hnvo to loon elsewhere for a speaker ,
perhaps further west than thoVeglons named.
The outcome of tbo visit to Now York is
watched with great Interest here.

The London fog which has hung ever the

dramatist is forging to the front.
The "Henrietta" wns a stop in the dlrco
tlon of a HOV , ' order of things , supplement
by'Brouson Howard's "Shonnndoah , " and
now comes Beia-seo ami Do Millo's "Charity
Boll" to widen the breach between thoEng
llsli melodrama and the Amorlcau comedy.
American playwrights are in the saddle
and their work is already receiving the crltl
cal consideration of audiences the world over
It may have boon the name as much us any
thing which attracted so representative an
nudlenco f mm the snmrt world of Omnhn to
iho Doyd last evening , for thcro nro ninny
tender recollections associated with the
charity halls of the pn.nt , but the nmno was
forgotten nt the close ot the play , amid IU
healthy honest sentiment ami Its masterful
construction.
The whole pith of "The Charity Ball" is
centered In the third act , which Is admirably
told and which holds the attention of the
milllunce , where the two II rst two acts hnvo
only caused it to wonder.
The third act reveals .lohn Van Duron's
study In the rectory of St. Mildred's. The
rector Is a flno , manly typo , drawn in vigor
ous lines nnd colored very pleasantly. Then *
nro no platitudes upon his lips ; ho Is not
namby-pamby ; n thorough out nnd out Chris-
tlnn , but n man nt nil tliftc. * , having a heart
for the do.solato and distressed , a mentor , a
friend. .Inst such a iirle.it that would hell )
lift the burdens of llfo rather than make the
load heavier by constant itteratlon of tbo sinfulness -
fulness of flush.
It Is the early morning nttor the charity
hall , where the rector , his sister nnd his
friends have been. The study Is lighted
rather dimly by aim or two lamia. OuUldo
the snow falls with dreary monotony. In
the window the clergyman has placed the
usual lump to warn unfortmintos that ho Is
there , ready to assist nnd help thorn. Sim-
Jen ly a door Is thrown open and n girl in her
ball dross rushes in. She Is p.ileand dlshov-
cllcd. Shu clnnccs Around , calls for John
Vim Duron , between tbo bars of nn nnthom
which the organist is playing on the
church organ , and slnk.s down In
n heap ou the the lloor , wec | > -
Ing pltcously. The rector nmio.irs. .
Ho lifts tno girl up and advances with her
to the firelight. Ho then discovers that who
Is Phyllis Lee , the girl , who until that night ,
has boon staying as a guest nt the rectory ,
nnd with whom ho has foolishly imagined ho
is in love.
She hns n tale of sh.imo to reveal. Follow
ing her comes Ann Crugcr , one of those imn-
Isturhigtingols which bring joy to scores of
weary liunris by her inniiy chiiritlM. A
model girl who is In love with the rector und
who the most obtuse play goers wlUrcadllv
understand Is going to nurry him.
John demands the name of the man who
has deceived Phyllis. The girl refuses to tell.
Ann boaccclies her to retain hei'scerot. Hut
the mystery is revealed to the minister. The
man who his promised to marry Phyllis and
failed to redeem his promise Is Dick Vim
Duron , the rector's brother. John is ughiMt
nt the discovery. At that moment Dick en
ters , tired and blase. A hot nrguiuunt en
sues. John forgoU that ho Is brother and
rector , and wbllo In the midst of their discus
sion the old mother enters to ttis.i "Her boys"
good night , ns slid did in the days of child
hood. When she leaves she takes with her a
great deal of the bitterness out of tlio hearts
of the two brothers. John exacts a promise
from Dick to marry Phyllis. The rector calls
her from an adjoining room and marries them
on the spot.
This net is n literary gem. Nothing approaching
preaching It in dramatic power has been
written tor many veara , There Is nothing to
equal It In "Sliennndoxh : , " nothing that comes
liny way near it in "Tlio Henrietta. "
Messrs. Helusconnd Do Millohavc tried to
touch in a&ontiincntnl way somoof the pre
cious elements of our social lifo with a sorl-
oii3 und a pleasant comedy pen. One of these
elements is the sucredness and serenity of
home , in winch is the pnro titmosphero of
motherhood. Through .such a common chan
nel of domesticity How the familiar waters of
our everyday existence , bearing upon their
surface the vagrant Incidents which like
crimson nnd russet , leaves from tlio great
bunks of life spin and disappear forever.
The cast was excellent , well balanced nnd
thoroughly in harmony with each other. But
Mr. Putnam , who plays the leading role ,
hardly looks the Episcopal clergyman. IIo Is
anything but ecclesiastical hi his appearance ,
notwithstanding that he wears the cloth , but
his delineation of the character was artistic
to a degree. Mr. Herman plays Dick very
intelligently Indeed , which may also bo said
of Mr. Burns' interpretation of Judgn Knox.
Walter Thomas is assigned to the p irt of
Alexander Kobliison , Iho leading Juvenile , and
ho plays it with coiisuminiito art. Mr. Belts ,
the organist of St. M.'ldrcd's , was effectively
portrayed by Mr. Gregory.
Miss Carpenter , who impersonates Ann
Crugcr , Is n now comer to Omaha , but hereafter -
after she will boa favotito with theatre
goers. A very competent actress , and withal
u very pretty woman , sjiu plays the part with
thu nicest discrimination possible. Miss
Besslo Tyreo Is cutruitcd with the Ingluno
role of Boss Van Huron , a sweetly sympa
thetic character which she plays very nlcolv.
Miss Ktliul Noybrooko is very delightful In
the role of Mrs. De Pryster , "who dabbles In
stocks. " A typo of character which Is
founded nowheru but In New York and ono
or two other big eastern cities. Miss Francis
( Jaunt , anil Eliza Logan were worthy of
classed among Mr. Frohinnn's players.
Tomorrow ( Friday ) afternoon at 2 o'clock
tlio funeral services of Miss Jessona Nis'ion
will tnko place at Trinity cathedral. Friends

Superintendent Edward A. Cudahy of the

nsked his opinion on the notion of thoAltoil
In rcduclnir the r.ito from - . " > to 18 oenU on
llvo hogs from ICunsns City to Chle.igo , said
"Of course this afTocts UH. The same rntu
will go into ulTcct from what are known as thu
Mlssnurl river points. It Just putn us 7 i-onts
do < erUhiniuo on llvo hogs , and In my opin
ion Is inequitable ami unjust , I nit. wo can do
nothing until we sco what thu railroads will
do. 'The secret of tills whole matter is that
the Alton has n contract with two of thu
Kansas City pae'kers to carry live hogs at
not more tlinn - " - cent'j mid nut less than 12
cents , and this prevents the advancing of the
rates to'J."i cents. This of course makes the
Alton the dictator on frolght rates nnd
prevents the rates on live hogs being ml-
vancecl to 25 rents , nnd wo think it should bo.
Till * notion of reducing the rates on live hogs
to IS cents from " > cents to Chicago , instead
of advancing tlio rates on packing lionso products - '
ducts to a corresponding amount simply puts
shippers one-third nearer Chicago and will
compel us to nay nt least 7 cents moro for
hogs than eastern buyers , anil to that extent
will give them an advantage over local
pacKcrs. "
Mr. Cudahy would not suggest u means of
preventing or counteract.Ing this elmngo in
rates.
